"Are you not wondering why there are no taxis stopping here? That they are just passing by?" the young man asked, surprising Trixie with his sudden remark. His voice is deep and sexy, and turns out he's an English speaker. Impressive. "Because we are already wet from the rain, and they don't want their taxi seats to get dirty?!" she exclaimed hysterically. "No. Do you think they will reject you? In this case, they need more passengers because if they don't drive, they won't have anything to eat," he replied seriously. "Ah, but there are a lot of taxis passing by, but no one really stops!" she retorted, frustrated with the taxi drivers for not stopping. The night is cold, coupled with heavy rain and thunder. Who wouldn't be irritated in such a situation? "Because they do have passengers," Trixie said, biting her lip in response. After a while, she burst out laughing, realizing that her constant complaint about not getting a taxi was because she thought the drivers were avoiding her, not realizing they had passengers. "You're right. I didn't think of that," she admitted, holding her stomach from laughter. "There is also a saying that if you have the patience to wait, you will not be disappointed. Because your waiting is worth it since what you want will still come true," the young man said. Trixie nodded in agreement. "Can I ask you something?" she inquired after a few seconds of silence. She thought he might not answer, but he turned to her. "Miss, you're already asking," he philosophically replied, biting his lower lip. "Are you leaving your home? Why do you have a suitcase in the middle of the night and in the rain?" she asked rapidly. "I just want to go to a place where I'll be comfortable," he answered. The young man is easy to talk to, and there's no sense of danger. If she were another woman, she might be scared, considering he has a suitcase and they are the only two in the waiting area trying to hail a taxi. "Why now, in the rain?" she asked, puzzled. "Because I didn't know it was going to rain. Miss?" "What?" she asked, still a bit grumpy. "I'm Wade Hansley Esquivias, 30 years old." Trixie's heart quickened as he introduced himself with his full name and age. 30 years old? Not bad for her 27 years of existence. She sighed at the end, thinking about the age gap. 'Wade Hansley Esquivias, handsome owner with a handsome name. What more could you ask for?' "I'm Trixie Vargas Garcia, 27 years old," she replied with her name. "Sorry if we met in this situation. I just found your gesture earlier amusing. You were really angry." "I just want to go home," she said. "I see, aren't you afraid of me? Because you're talking to a stranger like me? Is the line 'I don't talk to strangers' not in your vocabulary?" he asked. "Because that depends on how I feel the presence of a person. From what I see of you, you seem heartbroken. Your eyes are sad," she commented. "You're observant then," he said, and a taxi pulled up in front of them. It opened, and she thought she would be left there as he had found a ride. "Get in," he said in a gentle voice. Her heartbeat raced, and butterflies fluttered in her stomach. Is she feeling giddy because she met the gentleman Wade Hansley Esquivias?
THIRD PERSON'S POV
Trixie frowned when she saw who would model her new design shoes. This is only a limited edition and he also meant that they will release only three at the moment.
She's a shoes designer and her creations are known especially to artists and rich people. People are still vying for his new design even though he is really trying not to release much.
Every two months they re-release shoes and even though his staff hasn't studied whether it will enter the stock market, they still release it because as long as it has the name Trixie's Sexy, they won't have any problems. It will immediately hit the buyers.
Every week they show something on the internet that is his new design. In less than a minute, you can see many views and lift it up.
He himself takes the models for their production but he is still choosy when it comes to his models. If he doesn't like it, he will definitely change it, so his staff is very stressed to him, but they won't stop him from doing what he wants. It's not because he's their boss. They really have a lot of respect for him.
He stood up from his highchair when he saw that Solace Cromwell had lost her balance as she was wearing black high heels with a butterfly pendant on her strap.
"Oh, my God, Solace!" Trixie shouted and her eyes widened in shock due to the fall of her model. The dress she's wearing is still open, she can't be seen because she's wearing shorts but... "Out!" he shouted at his model and even pointed to the studio door.
"I'm sorry, Ms. Trixie," he apologized to her. She walked towards her.
"Tell me. We shot several times just to get the steps that our director taught you, but why can't you even get them and you're not walking properly so you're out of balance!" he shouted and his hands were almost squeezing Solace's head because of how much he felt for the girl.
"S-I'm sorry. I'm just not used to being so high," Solace reasoned out.
He bent down and violently removed the heels from her feet then stood up. He showed her his heel which he almost shoved in her face just so she could see it properly.
"Can't you see it? 'He's just the right height and I meant to make it this way because it's really for artists. Well, you're not an actor, an actor is different from a model, but how many times have we practiced before? Why can't you just get it, huh?!" he still shouted here. "Secretary Bardot, get Solace out first before I can beat these heels on her head!" His secretary nervously approached them because of his threat but they knew that he could not do that either.
His staff just don't want to see that he is super stressed today. He just couldn't handle his model being so ignorant.
Cursed and rude, he is known to have this attitude but he does not physically hurt. Her mouth was the only thing that hurt too much to speak but she knew her limits.
Trixie returned to her place earlier. She wore her light violet peplum shirt and violet cargo pants, and a pair of black strappy heels that she designed herself.
Of course, he is the owner and designer, so he will be the first to have it and he is making it a collection at his house.
At the age of 27 years old, she already has many achievements, she got awards as a top model here in the Philippines and also one of the successful business woman who also had five branches company in five countries. The first Filipino to have a big company whose business is booming even if it's just shoes.
Like what the ef, I'm really lucky that I was successful because of tsaga.
His name resonates with actors, models and rich and famous people in the world. It's just weird for them that the name of her company is Trixie's Sexy Shoes.
Well, he admitted it was really weird to hear but for her. The sexiest in the world are the shoes he creates himself. If he had to choose between two things; dress or heels? Of course, he would not hesitate to answer that shoes are the sexiest of all.
At the age of 21 he became independent and no longer depended on his parents. Even though at that time he was just a fresh graduate.
Solace only had pizza, burgers, and soft drinks because after their break, they weren't tortured any more. His own manager still thanked him because he said he wouldn't touch it again.
Yes, he's a great person because whatever comes out of his mouth, that's if he doesn't really like the performance of his models.
But he's the CEO, right? He still took care of his employees and also her models. It's not possible that he doesn't care about his staff because it's possible that he could be sued in no time.
He doesn't want that to happen and he will have a bad record with the police. He doesn't want to disappoint his staff who have a lot of respect for him and are already known for being cursed.
His cellphone rang and when he looked at it, it was just his mommy calling.
"Yes, Mom?" he answered.
"Trixie, child. When will you visit our house again? The last time we met was last month, ah," he said immediately from the other line.
"Dad and I will visit you soon, Mommy. Don't do it now because we are busy with the new release of our shoes, eh," she said and she knew that her mother was already frowning at this time. Who wouldn't if your own child rejects you even though he still wants to see you?
"Son, well..."
"It's really great if you could please me, Mommy. Alright, I'll pass by our house now. Stop frowning!" he said laughing.
"Trixie, I'm not frowning, son. I can smile now!" he said and he heard her loud laugh.
He just shook his head at his mommy's reaction. It also said goodbye to him.

The door sounded, I walked near there and opened it and it was Cyrus De Luxrell. He kissed me while entering here inside then locked the door again. "I got you food, my wife." he said softly in my ear so I nodded. "Does your back still hurt?" so i Shoked my head sit in his lap where he wants me to sit."Tomorrow, be ready. We're attending something gorgeous party." he said and gave me a smack kiss on my lips. "What party?' I said in my mind. I was treated well here even though I was kidnapped and big different in my family house who always wanted me to be their money machine all the times. They didn't try to find me and comforted my betrayal heart.
Who am I? What happened to me? Why I can't remember anything. All I know is I woke up didn't know how to walk, how to speak completely, it feels like I'm a new born baby but the opposite is I have a grown up body. I'm so weak that I can't even move my muscles. I'm so weak that I can't even mutter a single word. Hera Lopez has been in a coma for 8 years. How can an innocent girl live with all the problems? How will he get along with the people around him? A lot can happen and can be done to him by exploitative people. Would be a professor name Clinton Niccolas Donovan will help and teach her how to survive from cruel and twisted reality or be one of those people who have a cruel intention and motive?...
A rising actress who only got a glimpse of success suddenly found herself in a predicament. A crisis in a form of three small children knocking on the door of her life. The most worrying thing is that they call her... "Mama!" Thinking of what I could drink, I stared at the bartender for a long time. He's busy attending orders from other customers so he probably didn't notice me. He's tall and has a good physique. His muscles are visible because of his fitted white button down shirt. He deliberately undone three of his top buttons that's why women are drooling over the sight of his broad chest. It's no wonder that only women wait for orders at the bar counter. Even if they can't drink, order after order. It is the bartender the one they want to buy not drinks. He whistled. When I looked up at him again, our eyes met. I held my mouth. "Did I say that too loud?" I asked unconsciously. He chuckled. "Would you like a drink?" Instead of answering, he offered me a drink. I don't know what drink he put in front of me. It has a bright orange color. I gave him a stern look. "I never order for this." I pushed the glass towards him, but he handed it back to me. "That drink will suit your taste." I want to wipe off the sly grin he has. "Was it drugged?" "What kind of perverted ideas are you thinking?" My cheeks instantly heated by his vulgar way of asking. He's smiling from ear-to-ear. He's having fun toying with me. "I wasn't particularly thinking of anything!" I strongly defended myself which made him act as if he's surrendering. "Alright! We don't need to raise our voice here, Ma'am. We're both clean." I hate his grinning face. I rolled my eyes before chugging down that suspicious drink he offered. I blinked twice and stared at the half empty glass. "It was... an orange juice?" Damn this bartender! He's laughing his @ss off. "Was it too strong? Want something gentle?" I gritted my teeth. Now he's offering me a milk in a bear-shaped cup. My face was red, not just because of embarrassment but because of so much anger. I guess even if I love him for the milk he gives, I still can't get rid of my anger towards him. "Call your manager! What kind of crappy service is this?" My voice is raising dramatically. He pretended to take a breath as if in submission. "I think that's enough. You're already drunk, Ma'am." His face looks concerned but his voice sounds playful. This made me more furious. "I'm not drunk!" I tripped in time and spilled the orange juice on the counter. The irritating thing is that instead of getting angry, the smile on his lips grew even bigger. "Fine. You're not drunk." My vision is turning so blurry. I'm dizzy. I saw him gently touch my elbow to check if I was fine but I slapped his hand away. "That was too strong, rabbit." He chuckled. I don't remember what happened next because I lost consciousness completely. I knew it! That drink was drugged! I'll get back to that bartender! I felt the familiar warmth of my bed. How did I get home last night? I must have drunk too much because I don't remember anything. I was about to go back to sleep when I heard a strange noise around me. "Shhh! Don't make noise! Mama's sleeping!" Did I leave the TV on? What's with this noise? I heard a baby's cry. It was loud as if the baby's just beside me. "I'm hungry! Mom wake up!" Wait. I'm scared. This is way too realistic. Why is there a small hand touching my stomach? I don't want to open my eyes. "Wakey wakey, Mama!" I gasped for air as I opened my eyes when something hit my body. My eyes are playing games with me. There are three children in my bed! "Good morning, Mom!" -
I fell down on my bed. My body aches from practice. It's only four o'clock in the afternoon, it's shocking. Is this how Mommy suffered at HTS? If I only knew, I wouldnât have bothered to join yet. I struggled to get up and picked up the phone on top of my side table. "Mother Martha," I began tiredly and she answered me with full concern. "Please. Can you just bring me some food up here. Even if you just order another maid. The pain is over. My body really, I can't really go down. All right, thank you. " I immediately removed my bra and stretched. Even maybe opening a social media account is boring to do. I've only been in training for two weeks but I'm tired, I don't want to. I closed my eyes, waking up, tired and tired. I was startled by a noise coming from a cell phone, as if a gunshot had been fired. I seem to have fallen asleep tired. I turned to the person next to me and focused my eyes on his cellphone. My vision was blurred but it didnât take long and I saw who was next to me. "Calyx!" I slapped him with a lampshade. "Hey! Don't! â he blocked her face with his arm and immediately left my bed. "Why are you here? And ... And it's still here in my bed! " "I don't know about you. I just delivered your food and then you took advantage of my weakness," she replied and threw my bra on my bed, apparently hanging from her hair. Immediately warmed my face to what he did. I know there was no malice in what he did but I couldn't help but be ashamed. In the crowd, why Calyx yet? "The thickness of your face! Get out of here!" I repel while averting my eyes. "Why are you the one who delivered?" "I volunteered," he answered simply so I turned to him. âI would like to talk to you. I would have woken you up just because you are sound asleep so I would have planned, just wait for you to wake up. â "So who gave you the right to sit on my bed?" I raise my eyebrow. â âI am not comfortable on the floor. â "The thickness of your face, get out!" I rock him a pillow. He also left my room immediately. I just wiped my face. We are now facing each other in the living room as he rubs the lump on his forehead that was hit by the lampshade I hit. "I didn't invite you," he complained. "Don't play the victim. Anyone who sees our position before will think it's ugly." "Ja, you're the one who hugged the two of us. Why are you still angry? Shouldn't I? I feel like I took the wrong course, I should be a politician so I can pass a law that also aims to protect men from your women . " I was amazed at his reasoning. I donât know if he has a saltik or what. I closed my eyes tightly and whispered to him. "Hey. Calyx Napoleon Tan De Jesus, let's be clear. If you don't want to marry me, make sure no one knows what happened." "You're beautiful. It's not bad to marry you," he smiled mischievously and raised his eyebrows so I threw the magazine at him. I was even more annoyed when he laughed out loud. "Get out of here!" I hit the magazine. "Ja, let's talk," he laughed at my blows. "Let's talk about the two of usâ ouch!" he rubbed his forehead and quickly sat down next to me. "What's ours? There is no U.S!" I stomped on him. I sighed as he pulled my two legs closer to him, causing me to lie down on the sofa. He put one arm around my head and brought his face close to mine. I couldn't breathe or even move when our noses came together. I stared into his eyes moving my eyes and my lips. I sighed again when his finger stuck to my forehead as he parted my hair. I closed my eyes tightly and slapped him so he moved away from me. I immediately stood up and walked away from him. I felt my blood boil when I saw him smiling while holding his blushing cheek. "Strength," he said, shaking his head and smiling at me. âBut Ja, didn't you crush me then. I was just wondering, why? "Calyx growled. "Can I have Calyx. It's a memory I want to forget," I replied angrily and he laughed. I was about to stone him with the magazine when I heard the doorbell ring. Our assistant hurried to the gate to open the door for the visitor. I focused my eyes on the door of the house. "Are you expecting someone?" he asked in front and lay down on the couch. "It's none of your business. Can you just leave first because it's embarrassing for the visitor. â "Wow! Heavy! â he applauded. I turned angrily to the man who was just staring at me. He immediately âkissed me. "Fuckboy," I whispered. âHey, that hurts. You are a judge. â "Truth hurts, Calyx," I smiled sarcastically. "Ms. Jayesa," the maid approached me. "She's supposed to be your visitor. Keshaun Medrano. Shall I let her in?" âKeshaun? Thatâs a boyâs name, and youâre still a guest? Are you misleading? â Calyx stood up and got serious. âWhat are you doing? You also said, I'm beautiful, âI replied. I looked back at the maid and ordered him to let Keshaun in. "Jayesa, I know you're 18 but you're still a baby in our brother's eyes." "Why are you interfering?" "I'm just concerned." "Concern? Stop me," I
"Huh?" I asked confusedly. Mr. doctor's answer? "C-come again? I'm what⌠now?â "Pregnant Lady Ca-" âPregnant!?! I!? HOW!?â I shouted at him. He raised an eyebrow at me and stared at me like some sort of a weirdo. "By having an int*rc*urse of course Lady Candace." I looked at him, well, doctor, I'm not in the mood to joke here, what? How am I pregnant!? I'm not even from here! I'm literally not from here, I'm from planet earth! E-A-R-T-H EARTH! From the Philippines, Cebu City! I was drinking with some friends because there was a celebration... But, I got drunk and I don't know what happened. When I opened my eyes, my environment was different. I woke up on some sort of small house and when I came out the people were dressed fancily. Their set-up is ancient but fantasy themed? It's like a peg only in fantasy books. That's it! I really don't know what's going on- maybe I'm just pranking but it's not really. The way they talk is weird, my h-ngh-ng friends don't speak that fluently. So I'm convinced that I'm no longer a prank and I woke up in another world. Maybe that's possible, I'm listening to lessons and watching Isekai anime. (Our character here is quick to believe in magic so he quickly adapts what is happening. Then I also read reincarnation stories, be it manwha or manga. Maybe I was de-ds when I drank too much? I know that's not the only problem I have. My hair color also changed, I still have the same face and all but- I DON'T HAVE A FROST BLUE HAIR! My uncle's life was gone when he saw me coloring. Also what is with my eyes!? I don't wear contact lenses either!? I didn't even know what was happening and then I just found out that I'm pregnant?! I know the kid is from j-gj-gan but duh!? I'm a virgin! One hundred percent! Not a single man moved my flower! My beautiful flower is well protected by me! But new?! I suddenly found out that I'm pregnant!? Then I still don't know the child's father juskooo- forgive me father for I have really s-nned. Mamang will slap me left and right when he hears this! I haven't even graduated from college yet and I'm already doing kerengkeng. Huh. What if I suddenly got pregnant? What is magic? But magic exists here- because eehh! I really can't process what's happening to me. I'm still adjusting to this because I just reincarnated and then I found out that I'm pregnant without knowing who the father is. I mean- I don't have memories whatever. Not really! as in none! Nothing! Is this how you wake up in another world? I have read fantasy books, why aren't my scenes the same as theirs? They woke up because they remembered something from their past self chuchu. Why am I not there? Does this body have amnesia? This may not be my body even though we have the same face. What the h-ck is happening? Not only do I have no memories, I suddenly got pregnant. I bit my lip, seriously, if I am reincarnated in another world, I must also have memories so that I can catch up on events. But nothing really, I was not blessed. I scratched my head while looking at my stomach, whatever. I'm gonna take care of this child. I, Candace Dulce will be raising this baby! With or without someone! Well, I'm such a strong independent woman!
