Angelique's POV

I thought she was going to force me to tell the truth about them, thank gosh I dodged a bullet there. I wonder if she didn't believe me, I guess she'll regret having me beside her while we're here and probably push us away because we hid so much from her. It took an hour for her to finish taking a bath and get dressed to go back, when we're about to leave someone busts the door open, and to my shock... It was Jonathan and a man behind him.

"Deja de romper las puertas así," Carmelita shouts and the guy behind him asked me.

"Are you the one he's always talking about?"

"What? No, not me." I looked around and saw Angelica drying her hair, then pointed at her "That one."

"Oh, you guys are sisters, I can already tell. Perhaps you are with Nicholas?" he asks.

"Bold of you to ask me that away, of course..." his eyes widened, "...Not" then came into an eye roll. Jeez, men these days sure do lots of eye rolls than women. I followed them and Angelica stopped in her tracks.

"Angelica, look who came," I said, even though I despise it a lot.

Angelica's POV

I felt like I'd seen a ghost when I saw Jonathan standing in front of me. My face heats up and then quickly diminishes when I see someone behind him instead of Nicholas.

"You look lovely at that height, Miss Angelica." I just smiled, "By the way, my name's Maxwell. Maxwell Montgomery." I wiped my hand on a dried part of a towel and reached to shake it.

"Angelica Park, nice to meet you." by the way he greets himself, he looks rather old-fashioned and it resembles Mr. Lee, "Are you having the role of Mr. Lee?"

"Pardon? Who's Mr. Lee?"

"Oh, uh, excuse them for a bit, Angie. You surprised him," Angelique says and grabbed them both on their wrists.

Angelique's POV

Jonathan looks at me and Maxwell on the other hand is confused.

"Care to explain what is happening?" Maxwell asks in an irritated tone.

"I know, I'm sorry if I ever brought you in here. Because it's supposed to be Nicholas not you," I retorted.

"Oh, you do not want to fight me in the first place." he threatens me with a hiss.

"I already hated you when you asked me that question earlier."

"Enough, I'm not grabbed here for me to see you guys fighting each other" Jonathan cuts us off and I just backed away a little.

"Okay, so here's the thing," I told them all about it and Maxwell was looking mad at me as I mimicked his expressions.

"So, Maxwell... You have to get on the flow with her as she explains why you reacted to what Angelica asked," he says, feet tapping on the ground fast enough... Angelica tapped Jonathan's shoulder and he almost jumped from it.

Angelica's POV

"Can we talk?" Jonathan agreed and followed me.

"So what is it that we are about to talk about?" he seems annoyed, but at the same time afraid.

"How's Ms. Anita Monroe? Did you have a good time with her?" he suddenly looks at me

"Yeah, oh, and she became a jerk because she ended it and left me in such a mess." They must've had a good time then, I frowned, searching for words.

"Why did you become sad?"

"Well because it took me hours to contact Anita Monroe! I exhausted myself for nothing..." I trailed and looked away, he looked at me with concern.

"I didn't make it in vain, don't worry, Angelica. Those four months were invested well in getting to know each other, so don't be sad." Jonathan reassures me with a smile.

"I am sad because she can't deal with you." I don't know what I just said, but his eyes widened a bit.

"No, she broke up with me because his step-brother, Alexander Hugh says that she should intervene in our relationship." I blushed at it, it feels so wrong but why does it feel so right at the same time?

"Woah, hold on right there. You guys are not in a relationship just yet," Angelique interferes.

"I mean, we kissed in the park. Right?" I asked him, and he nodded in response. Both Angelique and that guy's eyes widened in shock.

"You what?!" Angelique's voice becomes loud and Carmelita comes shouting at us and starts to throw her sandals at Jonathan and Maxwell.

"You always had an introduction to meet us," Maxwell said and pulled her into a hug.

"Oh, Hijo. I thought there was just a commotion happening here. It's so good to see you back here."

"Me too, but this is the first time seeing you like this Carmelita."

"Because Ronaldo was here," Jonathan's smile and Maxwell's gummy smile quickly fade and their brows start to connect as one.

"Good thing we're leaving," Angelique says, she's probably hiding something I don't know. Jonathan just nods and Maxwell starts to complain.

"Let's rest for this day, then we'll leave as soon as we wake up. I'm a bit jet-lagged," he says and sits down on a couch.

"Oh, you poor thing. That might be a good idea." Jonathan didn't say anything, then Angelique threw her hand in the air.

"But—" Angelique was cut off by Carmelita.

"No buts, honey. You all will stay, don't worry. I'll have people to watch this place just for you all." She sweetly smiles at me and even though those words are reassuring, her eyes tell her that she is really afraid of what's happening.

"I don't get it, what's happening?" They all looked at me and it's the first time that Angelique looked at me, afraid and Jonathan looked at me with those same brown eyes, and Maxwell... just bored me. Angelique's mouth was about to open when Jonathan intervened.

"We're having a tight schedule due to its lack of time, that's all." I still remember what he did to me and I wasn't satisfied.

"And am I supposed to believe that?" he shoots a wild look at me as I just raise my eyebrows at him, his eyes widened when he gets what I meant.

"Believe it or not, we're on a tight schedule."

"That is one thing I do not believe." Jonathan looks at me intensely, this time, he is annoyed at my actions toward him. He walks closer and stands in front of me.

"Do you want to know the truth that badly?" he asks.

"Come on, don't do this right now," Angelique says.

"Shut up, Angelique. If you weren't that curious about what Mr. Lee said, the both of you wouldn't be involved." I couldn't contain this crap anymore.

"So, what I just read, is it all true then? Angelique?" I asked her, and all of them went quiet before Jonathan replied.

"Yes! There, I said it. Are you happy?" Jonathan yells, and a single tear escapes and falls through my cheeks.
