###Chapter 14



I can't help but throw a gaze at Leigh and to that man outside of this house when they are getting closer and closer while they are talking to each other. I'm not sure what they're discussing right now, but it appears to be serious. I'm now sitting in a bamboo chair inside the house. I also couldn't look at the whole house because I don't want to take my eyes off Leigh and to that man. As I already stated, their talk appeared serious since I could see the man's expression while Leigh turned her back on me, obscuring her face so I couldn't see her expression.



"Here son, get some juice first." I was a little surprised when the old man suddenly appeared in front of me. It was only then that I lost sight of Leigh and then immediately turned my attention to the old man.



As he brought me the glass of orange juice, I just replied, "Thank you."



I accepted it and then si

I was driving quietly while Leigh was just staring out the window of my car. It's almost 11 AM and it's getting closer to 12 noon. We are currently on our way to Quezon City and according to my calculations, we will arrive at exactly 1 PM.

'Uhmm. J-just a little," she replied hesitantly.



"Okay" I calmly said, "I'll just pull over later when I see a restaurant."



She remained silent.

It didn't take long for us to pass a restaurant so like what I have stated, I stopped the car for us to eat inside. I was about to take off my seat

###Chapter 13



This time, I walked faster than Wayne, and he followed silently behind me. I'm not sure how I'm going to deal with him after what he heard about me earlier, but despite that, I simply decided to act as if nothing had happened and that I was no longer affected. After all, our personal lives are distinct from our business relationships. We will both get benefits here— there will be no cheating or greed.



With Wayne's help and support, I can win the case and reclaim our land, while it pains me to admit this to myself but he is no longer at loss to me anymore. It's not a big deal if something happens between the two of us because, as I already stated, we've done that thing before… and I even lost count.



After a while, we finally arrived at Pio's house. I saw him cleaning his pick-up car. His position was slightly turned in my direction, so he hadn't seen me yet, so I im

I accepted it and then simply placed the glass on the small table in front of me... after all, I wasn't thirsty.
