She tried hard not to snoop on the internet. But Bonnie told her not to even touch anything as what the manager told her. Nancy even explained to her that all of the expenses will be shouldered by the company since half of her money has been taken to pay for breaching the contract.

“The President is kind enough to protect you like this,” Nancy told her. “You can’t text anyone about your location. Do you understand me?” She scolded her.

“Yeah, whatever.” She mumbled.

“I made some homemade pizza.” Bonnie offered kindly.

She only looked at it and went back to her room. She hugged the teddy bear that once her fan gave to her. Now, she left the light of entertainment for a while. She didn’t want to disappoint them but she had no choice but to stay away from social media. She couldn’t even access the wifi of the rest house and it’s only meant for the use of security.

The words of the blackmailer also get into her head and her psychiatrist visits her every week for their session. Even the psychiatrist was also provided by the President of the Golden Age. Then, she recently heard that the President even contacted Arianna Rosales to sign up in the Golden Age. She was once a legendary singer, the rising star because of the beautiful compositions, but somehow, she was out of the limelight after the scandal.

She stared at her guitar as she slipped off from the bed and started strumming it as she started compositing her new song, Depression.

After working on a few words, her phone vibrates. She was puzzled on why the President’s Secretary is calling her. Just to make sure that she’ll have something against them, she records the call after answering it.

“Hello?” She asked in a weak voice.

“Miss Madison,” The Secretary said formally. “How are you?”

“I~I’m doing fine.”

“Good. If possible, can you please participate in fitness exercises? It’ll be good for your physical and mental health. I already spoke to your manager and made her a health plan. You can’t touch any wine or any alcohol too. The President wants you to be healthy and sober before you come back.”

“Come back?” She was puzzled as why the President wants her to be that way after the embarrassing things that she had done.

“Yes, that’s what she told me a while ago. Also, we’ll set up a recording room for you in the rest house. The President wants you to focus on your music rather than worrying about your blackmailer.”

“I-Is that so?” She mumbled. “But I would like to ask, on who she was? The blackmailer, I mean.” She bit her nail as she waited for the Secretary’s answer.

“She’s someone that we also don’t know.” Secretary Johanna said. “Don’t worry, Miss Madison. The President didn’t stop on searching for her.”

“So, it wasn’t the President’s set up?” She asked sarcastically.

“The President has no time for any pranks or threats. Why would she waste money and time to keep you safe and healthy?”

It’s true. She’s just too paranoid and she didn’t know the reality at the moment.

“She’s the only person that I thought of. I’m sorry. It’s probably because she’s his wife.”

“Miss Madison, I think you are mistaken. She’s indeed the wife of one of the most powerful and rich men. But let me ask you, did he pay attention to you?”

“He~~He didn’t,” Louise said.

“Then, the president won’t waste such things on you. Would she? Also, it’s very unethical of someone professional to give threats.”

“Yes, I understand. Sorry.”

“It’s alright, Miss Madison. I understand your situation. Please participate in your Manager’s plan.”

“Yes, yes.”

“If you don’t, it’ll be another breach of contract. The President wants everyone in the company to be clean and healthy.”

“I understand.”

“Goodbye, then.” She hung up.

She exhaled slowly and looked down at her composition.

“I can’t believe that you are married!” Holly exclaimed as she stared at the beautiful ring.

“I can’t believe myself either.” She chuckled. “I mentioned to you that I have selective amnesia, didn’t I?”

“Yes, you do,” Holly answered, hyper as always.

Keira knew that Holly was just too surprised that she’s married. Holly also knew about her past and that they used to have a business. She told her everything that Holly needed to know. That she didn’t have her memories yet but she’s already engaged back then to Alessandro.

At that moment, Alessandro was watching the girls chat. He creased his brows momentarily. He knew Holly. The friend that helped Keira back then by letting their things in her apartment. But he just didn’t expect that she’ll suddenly be here.

“Karmina invited her here. Even yesterday.” Alex said. “Why are you frowning?” he asked.

Alessandro shook his head. He’ll keep this up but he felt uneasy toward the chatty Holly. There’s just something about her that he didn’t understand. But who was he to judge someone? Besides, she’s Keira’s ‘best friend’ and his wife seemed to trust her much. The chatting goes on and Keira even showed her to the music room as she played music for them.

“Love, can you accompany me?” His wife asked in a very adorable way. She’s acting childish and naughty at the same time and that’s the Keira he knows. Alessandro just loved her so much that anything she would say will be granted right away.

The couple played together, while Alessandro was playing the grand piano and she was playing her cello. The couple looked at each other and smiled. Then, he glanced at the mirror where he could see Holly who was watching Keira with sharp eyes. She didn’t even blink and it seemed like something was going on with her. When Keira raised her head, Holly smiled, looking sparkly and cheerful.

“That’s amazing.” She said.

Alessandro stopped playing and looked at Holly’s reaction. What he saw was something that he already saw back then. Jealously.

“Holly, do you also play?” Alessandro asked, sounding friendly.

“Yes, I do.” She smiled beautifully to charm him. He nodded his head and stood.

“She’s a musician too,” Keira told him. He nodded as the girls went out while Keira gave her gifts. Alessandro wasn’t against his wife giving her friend gifts. Holly didn’t want to accept such gifts but even Karmina already bought something for Holly.

“I’m sorry that I can’t make it for dinner. I have a sudden important appointment.” She told her and pouted.

“Don’t worry. We’ll see each other again.” Keira suggested that the two hugged each other. Then, Karmina’s driver took her back home. Alessandro stared at the long driveway and he pulled out his phone to call his driver.

“Love, I’m going to pick up the package,” Alessandro said as he approached Keira and wrapped his arms around her. “Remember the things that I told you a while ago?”

Keira thought for a while as a grin draw across her lips. She looked up at him like a puppy. He swore that if she’s indeed a real puppy with a tail, her tail would wiggle non-stop.

“Yes,” He kissed her lips. “What do you want me to buy on my way here?”

“Uh, nothing. Just you and your sexy body.” She winked as she teasingly scratched his chest. He chuckled and patted her head. “I’m going to check on a few documents.”

“Sure.” He kissed her forehead and let her go. He went to the main door as his car was parked outside. The driver opened it up for him as one of the bodyguards sat on the front passenger seat. “Follow, Mom Karmina’s car.”

The driver nodded. He only took the cheap SUV for his cover-up. Soon, they saw Karmina’s car passed by them like it’s going back to the villa. The bodyguard called the driver. Alessandro listened to it.

“You dropped her off at the taxi waiting area? Alright.”

They passed by the taxi waiting area as she entered the taxi. They slowed down and followed the taxi together with a few cars. Their driver is very skillful when following someone. He got that eagle’s eyes. Finally, the girl dropped off in front of the cafe. Something made him cringed. The man who was waiting for her is no other than the ex-boyfriend. He scooped her neck and kissed her passionately as she kissed back.

Their car stopped just a few meters from them. He took the binocular to watch their lips move as they spoke to each other. One thing that he learned from the owner of Empire of Professional Undercover Agents or known as EPUA is reading lips. He’s one of the main investors that’s why he knew the owner well. And he watched her read lips and understood it quickly.

“So, is it confirmed?” Oliver asked Holly.

“Yes,” Holly rolled her eyes. “Why are you still acting upon her? You knew well that I was letting you touch her and let you fuck someone else!” She hissed. “You already break her heart just as I wanted.”

“I want to fuck her, too. Holly. I won’t be satisfied with just touching that slut’s boobs.”

Holly rolled her eyes.

“Well, my plan on letting her sell herself works but it ended up that the rich man was her fiancee.” She scoffed. “She’s already married, dumb ass!”

Oliver looked frustrated.

Inside the car, Alessandro gritted his teeth as his fist clenched.

“I want every detail and dirty thing from those two.” He mumbled.

“Yes, sir.” The head bodyguard answered. “Would you reveal it to Madam, sir? I think she’ll be heartbroken.”

“They already betrayed her like this and broke her heart.” He grumbled. “I want them to suffer.”

“As you wish.” The Head Guard answered.
