Chapter 28

AUNT Pat hugged me so tight. "Miranda, anak!"

"Tita..." I closed my eyes as I hugged her back. I miss her.

"We're worried about why your wedding with Fiore was postponed. He said you got sick and was put to rest in the province he didn't even mention where. We've been calling you, but you're not answering your phone.”

‘So I was sick?’ Fiore's statement was intended to divert their attention away from the truth.

“How are you, Mir?" My aunt's gaze hovered over my appearance and smiled. "You're still so beautiful, Miranda."

"Thank you very much, tita." I, too, smiled at her. "E-Everything is fine with me. What about you and Tito? How are you both doing?" I have no choice but to also lie and tell her I'm okay, or else she will get hurt as a result of what I did.
