The water splash when Elisha dived into the 10 ft pool inside their mansion with her friend watching. She's wearing a red one piece swimsuit with the string in her neck as shes busy to go to the end of the pool.

Her friend smirked as she come up from the pool and looked at him with her eyes narrowed at him.

"Here's your expensive wine from France." He showed her three bottles of wine he is holding and put it on the table.

She stopped a bit when she heard a 'France' but she knows he's not pertaining to a person, but to a country.

Her wine is the most expensive. Domaine de la Romanée-Conti 1945 from Conti, France. And it costs 5 digits here in the Philippines.

"You should not put it there you know?" She said in sarcastic tone but her friend just laughed at her and looked her body perfectly.

Her friend fixed his black hair before staring at her. "You didn't miss me?" A smirked escape from his lips, started to tease her. But she avoid it and started to float.

She did not talk but keep staring at the night sky with a full of stars. Both of them became quiet, specially her friend. They're known each other for years and her friend knew what's running on Elisha's mind.

"What's going on?" Her partner knew her well as Elisha started to eye contact on him.

Elisha sighed heavily. "I'm thinking about our project, but I can't show myself on public yet after that arrange marriage exposed."

Of course, she's an Alyanzra. Her family including her is so famous and also the riches in their original country.

They're not born in the Philippines. Elisha and her twin brother born in Japan when their both parents are having check ups into the twins and decided that their mother will had birth in there.

"Don't sneak out, I know that's not what you're thinking," he said with a smile.

Elisha did nothing but tell the truth.

"When you mentioned France, I know that you are not talking about a person. I just have a problem with how can I solve this if we have a project coming,"

"The manager will take care of us, they will be able to solve the issue that has spread to you. The project will still continue, that's where we will come in. I have also brought the script for you to study, because it starts next week" Her friend explained it to her in a detail.

Elisha almost forgot what her job is, beside of the owner of the perfume company. It's a good thing that her best friend is here when she always has a problems and save her.

"Alright, just put my script inside and join with me here," She calmly said to her friend.

Her best friend followed with a smile on his face but come back in a minute and soon jumped into the pool and swam towards her.

"How are you?" He started the conversation with her.

Elisha was busy to fix her hair and looked at him. "I'm fine, I just wanted to go with the flow until I can cut his communication with my family, including myself."

"Are you sure about your decision?" He asked her, he couldn't help but worry for her.

"You know me, Saji"

Her friend named Isaji or Saji for short. He's a half American and a Japanese she knew when she entered social media, as an actress and a model.

They both laughed as they read each other's thinking. Saji went close to her and hug her from behind. There's no denying that Saji is a handsome man that possible to match but she and Saji are only called 'Besties'.

"I missed you, love."

It's normal for them to call 'love' and that's just not their thing. Saji is so gentle with her too and she is used to it. Apart from his twin, only Saji was given the right to be clingy to her.

She laughed and hugged Saji back. "Let's have a party tonight, wanna go with that?

" I'm still tired, I just arrived earlier from France and to bring you the most expensive wine. How about tomorrow evening? I'll fetch you and gave you a memorable dinner." Elisha can't help herself but to bit her lower lip to stop herself from smiling.

Saji, on the other hand smile a lot to her. Saji was known to be a serious man when it comes to other people. And Saji only smile with her bestie, Elisha.

"Sure."

"Nakakapagod!" Sambit ni France at humiga sa malambot na kama nang mag isa nalang sya sa luxury na kinuha nila para mag stay bago ma meet ang businessman parter nila sa organisasyon.

Hindi pa sya nakakapagpahinga ng ilang minuto nang may kumatok sa kwarto nya. Tamad syang bumangon at binuksan ang pintuan nang makitang si Chloe ang bumungad ay agad syang napatayo.

"I-ikaw pala, susunod na ako," Hindi nya pinahalatang nautal sya sa pagka bigla.

"Ok lang, hindi naman din sila nagmamadali. Paparating pa lang daw si Mr Saxon. Ang alam ko may kasama oa syang isa pero hindi na inalam nila Krisha," Pagpapaliwanag nya at pinaupo naman sya ni France sa kama habang busy inililibot Chloe ang paningin sa kwarto nya

Hindi maiwasang tignan ni France ang mata nyang kulay asul. Parang sya lang yata ang kilala niyang morena pero blue eyes. Sa mata pa lang nito ay ma a attract kana, lalo na kapag hindi mo sya kilala.

Iniwas nya nalang ang tingin sa kanya ang nagpalit ito damit para naman presentable

at hindi mukhang kahiya hiya sa ma me meet nila. Pagkatapos ay umalis na din sila ni Chloe nang malamang nandoon na sa private room iyong guest.

Pagkapasok palang ay ramdam na ni France ang lamig. Hindi nya alam kung siya ba yon pero imposible dahil sanay naman na sya ganitong sitwasyon.

Inilibot nito ang paningin nang makapasok kami. Nakita naman agad nila si Mr Saxon. Sa base ng itsura nya ay nasa middle age na sya. Itim ang buhok na may kaonting puti. Misteryoso ang itsura at parang hindi ngumingiti.

Nagkamali siya nang iniisip ng pansinin nya kami at ngumiti. Sa pagiging lutang ay hindi nya agad napansin ang katabi nya. Doon lamang siya nagulat nang makilala kung sino iyon.

"I-ikaw,"
