LOGINBernadette felt her world crumble when her fiancè Leandro Imperial suddenly disappeared. He went to Davao for a business meeting but he promised that when he returns, he'd formally introduce her to his family. He also promised that he would give her the best wedding that any woman would want to have. They were both happy the last time they talked after she revealed to him that she was pregnant with his child. A few days had passed since Leandro left, but he had not returned ever since. Until the days turned into months…years…and she did not see Leandro anymore. But she had to be strong especially when she found out that her child had a heart condition. She endured all these things all by herself and these made her become a different person. She just hated Leandro all the more. Her love for Leandro became fury. Her smile had gone and was replaced by hatred. What if Leandro came back after three years but he was no longer the same Leandro that he used to be? Instead, he introduced himself as another person. Would she believe him? And if he was not really her Leandro but the husband of Mrs. Jasmin Raymundo, would she be willing to sleep with him in exchange for money that she needed for the operation of her son Andrew?
View MoreBERNADETTE’S chest throbbed violently. That day was her first meeting with Leandro or Daniel. Mrs. Raymundo personally called her earlier that day to remind her. She couldn’t help but sigh. She had barely slept yet. Last night she couldn’t sleep thinking about Leandro. How could she fulfill what was written in their agreement when it was just about to start but she already wanted to call it off?
BERNADETTE heaved a sigh before finally entering the condominium, then looked around and noticed that the hotel was exclusive and for wealthy people. Esme was with her. She was surprised to find out that Mr. Raymundo had a condo because according to Roxanne, the couple was staying at the hotel.
THE nervousness that Bernadette felt just a few minutes ago slowly disappeared. Mrs. Raymundo told her that her appointment with her husband was four o’clock in the afternoon. She was at the same restaurant where she first met her. Bernadette glanced at her wristwatch; it was quarter past four but there was still no sign of Mr. Raymundo. She called the waiter and asked for another iced tea; that was actually her third glass since she arrived at the restaurant. It was really hard to wait for someone you barely know. There was no assurance if he would come or not because she had not received any communication from him.
"HELLO, so you are Ms. Bernadette Polintan."She tried hard to smile at the woman in front of her. It had been almost two hours since Esme called Roxanne to inform her that Mrs. Raymundo wanted to meet her. That was after she received the down payment from Roxanne when she visited Andrew at the hospital.
