"You haven"t told Mr. White anything yet?" Blue took a gla.s.s of wine and sits down with Kady."No," Kady answered, "Haven"t you told them?"
"No!" Blue sighs and takes a sip of his wine.
It"s been three days and no one has ever said a thing about Wyn and Aria"s plan to Clark or Sheen or anyone involved in the company field.
"We have to do something, Kady. I mean, this will affect Sheen."
Kady looks at Blue, "Then, we"ll tell Sheen first. She can talk to Wyn and Aria."
"Are you sure? Wyn is definitely doing this because he"s still into Sheen," Blue asks Kady and took out his phone to call Sheen.
"Yeah. And if he will listen to Sheen, he will stop this ridiculous plan."
While Kady and Blue are discussing, they didn"t notice that Elgeen woke up and heard them.
"Aria, she"s just using Wyn. How can"t he see that?" Blue proceeds on calling Sheen.
"Who is that?" Kady asks while pointing at Blue"s phone on his ears.
"Sheen, I"ll ask her to meet me," Blue answers, "She can talk to Wyn and then change his mind, right?"
"Yeah, let"s just tell her. I"m going with you."
They both went out and left Elgeen standing behind the door, "What was that? I thought Wyn"s already over Sheen." She whispers and ran to prepare and follow Kady and Blue.
"Hey, don"t push me," Kady whispers to Blue as they squeeze themselves behind a tree while they were about to meet Sheen, Wyn suddenly shows up.
"Why is he here?" Blue grinds his teeth while secretly watching Sheen and Wyn walking towards the restaurant they agreed to meet in.
"Well, well, what are you guys up to?" Elgeen whispered near Kady and Blue"s ear.
They both freaked out and shrieked while still trying to hide behind the tree.
Elgeen peeks at who they are looking at and saw Sheen and Wyn, "What?" she whispered.
"I thought you had your last photoshoot today?" Blue pats Kady to try and act normal.
"Yeah?" Kady looks at Blue, he doesn"t even know what"s Elgeen"s up to.
"What"s this about? Will Wyn destroy my ship?" Elgeen arrogantly pulls Blue"s collar, "Will he? I am going to kill him!"
"Wait, no. And why are you acting so defensive over Sheen and Clark?" Blue said and pulls Elgeen"s hand away from his collar.
"Because I heard what happened between Clark and Sheen these past days and I thought if someone pops up and disturbs their peaceful days, they might fight again."
Kady snorted but laters clears his throat when Elgeen glared over him.
"I am just worried, what is happening. I"ll help you in any way I can." Elgeen said and exhales.
Kady and Blue looked at each other, "Wait, did you tell Sheen what this is about?" Kady asks.
"No," Blue shakes his head, "Do you have a plan?"
Kady looks at Elgeen, "Bea"s wedding"s around the corner, have you thought about a gift?"
"Nope," Elgeen answered, "Why?"
"What if we act as if we just want to plan about the gift with Sheen, Wyn won"t be asking questions that will be risky," Kady said.
Blue and Elgeen look at each other and nodded, "Yeah," they said in unison, "Let"s go."
"But what is happening?" Elgeen asks Blue.
"I"ll tell you later, just..." Blue puts his arms around Elgeen"s shoulder, "Go with the flow."
Kady texted Sheen saying that they are on their way.
Sheen saw them from the window and smiled at them.
"So, what are you going to do?" Wyn asks Sheen as she looks at her friends.
"Well, I won"t let you or Aria do what you are planning." She stretches her hands as she leans on the chair.
"And tell Clark?" Wyn asks as he stirs his coffee.
"Yeah, why did you pretended to be on the same side as Aria? And how did you know about her plan?"
"She contacted me first. For some reasons, she knew about it. I think Mom told her when they met at a party. Anyway, my only reason is to prove to my father that I can do great things. As for my reason to Aria, I said I want to steal you from your fiance."
Sheen"s forehead furrowed as her lips form a smile, "She believed you?"
"Yeah, she knew that I used to like you," Wyn said and leans on the chair.
"I see, then, you"re not my enemy. Thank you for telling me this, Wyn. You"re the best," Sheen said and smiled at Wyn.
"I won"t do anything that will hurt you. Just, pretend that you didn"t know. But tell Clark that I am part of it, I just want to annoy him," Wyn said and laughs.
"Okay. Just be careful. Aria...she"s something. I already sensed it before but now, I already know why she"s destroying Clark to me.:
Wyn nodded and looks at Blue who entered the restaurant with Kady and Elgeen.
The two men look at him sharply, making him smirk.
"These two somehow believed that plan," Wyn whispers for Sheen to hear.
"What do you think they"ll think? You suddenly disappeared then you came back but you"re in your own s.p.a.ce. n.o.body knew what you"re up to," Sheen smiled and turned around to wave at Blue.
"Everything will be alright," Wyn said and smiled at Blue and Kady.
Elgeen, who"s clueless to what is happening felt the heavy aura between the guys but as soon as she saw Sheen, she can"t help but smile and immediately sits beside her.
"Hey!" Elgeen said and hugged Sheen.
"Hey, how"s your photo shoot?" Sheen asks and hugs Elgeen back.
"It"s a bomb! Anyways, your book is amazing! My friends were talking about it, "Sheen said and pushes Sheen softly.
Kady and Blue sit beside Wyn, they pretended as if nothing happened between them yesterday.
"Really? Well, they said they are planning to make it as a movie," Sheen smiled but she glances over Wyn.
It kind of hurts her about the plan that it"s a piece of fake news, but she knew that Wyn will never hurt her purposely.
"Woah!" Elgeen"s eyes grew big, "You mean I can really see the characters? I can see how the King sacrifices his power, everything, to be with his one true love?"
Sheen slowly awkwardly smiles, it"s weird to hear how someone puts the story in simple sentences, "Yeah," she said and nodded, "Right."
Wyn looks away, guilty, that the movie won"t happen.
It was just a part of a plan for Sheen to stay away from Clark because of heartbreak while Clark is busy dealing with his business partners.
Kady and Blue look at each other and nodded, agreeing on telling Sheen what is happening between Wyn and Aria.
"But the movie is a hoax," Blue stared, "It"s not true."
Wyn and Sheen froze, they don"t know how to respond to it.
"What," Sheen fakely looks shocked, "What are you talking about?"
Wyn laughs, "Where is this coming from?"
Kady smirks, "Stop playing pretend, Wyn. You"re not a good liar."
Elgeen looks at Sheen then turned her gaze to the guys who seem to be hating each other.
"I don"t know what you are talking about," Wyn scuffs his shoulder near Kady, "Is this about what happened yesterday?"
"Yes, why don"t you tell her about your plans?" Blue asks while glaring over Wyn.
"Sheen, I think we have to change the plan." Wyn said and took a sip of his coffee, "They won"t listen to me. Care to share?"
Sheen"s faking troubled face went straight, "It"s hard to pretend, Wyn. Ugh," she rolled her eyes and looks straight to Kady and Blue. "I know about the plans. Everything."
Kady and Blue look at each other and then started laughing, "He"s lying!" they said and began pulling Wyn"s ears.
Wyn tries to suppress the pain by trying to pull himself away from the two guys but they just keep on pulling his ears.
"Stop," Sheen said in a low voice, getting irritated to the childish behavior her friends are showing, "STOP!" She screamed at them.
She was already shocked by what Wyn texted her yesterday.
She wasn"t able to sleep well that she asked for a day off from Clark.
Even lying to him that she has to help Bea with her last-minute preparations for the wedding.
She had to meet with Wyn but Kady and Blue planned with her first and now she had to deal with the plans just to catch Aria.
Even risking Wyn"s reputation for this.
They all looked at her terrified, Blue and Kady let Wyn go.
"I know everything. The movie, my book, Clark"s business partners, Wyn trying to win me over, Aria"s sickening plan to take the company... everything." Sheen said and takes a deep breath.
Wyn sighed, "Yes, I have my plan, Kady, Blue. I am not against Clark or anyone. All I want is to prove my worth to my father. I will never hurt Sheen."
Blue snorted, "What? Never hurt? You just did. Aria already started the plan. Sheen was excited about the movie and you just killed it."
"What? No movie?" Elgeen looks at Sheen mortified.
Sheen just shakes her head.
"I didn"t know, Sheen just told me about it yesterday after I had a meeting with Aria. That is why I already spilled everything to Sheen to avoid hurting her even more." Wyn said and ma.s.sages his temples.
Sheen stared at Wyn, he still looks like her main character.
The guy he saw in the coffee shop while she"s into a story.
Even though they"ve been through a lot, he still looks like the sweet main character.
Sheen knows that Wyn"s being manipulated by his father and Aria.
She"s just like him before.
She wants to prove to her family that she"s worth it even though it means she"s used.
But this time, Wyn"s father isn"t like her family.
He only wants Wyn to learn.
And it"s Aria who needs to stay away.
Without any proof, they won"t be able to make her stop which is why they should just play along.
"Blue, Kady, just pretend that you didn"t tell us anything. Pretend as if you do not want to be part of this. Aria will come after you if you try to meddle." Sheen said and called the waiter to order.
"That means, no movie?" Elgeen pouts and stared at the menu.
"Don"t worry, Wyn will produce the movie after this. He won"t be doing publishing works. He will create the next production company that will create the biggest movies," Sheen said and pats Elgeen"s back.
"Hey. Be sure to make Sheen"s book a movie, okay?" Elgeen looks at Wyn sharply.
Wyn just nodded with a smile on his face.
"What about Clark?" Blue asks.
Wyn sighed, "I don"t know yet. If he knew about Aria, he"ll go deeper and find that I am his brother."
"Don"t you want him to know that you are brothers?" Kady asks.
Wyn just kept quiet, he already had this talk to Sheen before, but he"s still not sure if he wants Clark to know or not.
He wants to be seen as a sibling but he"s afraid.
Aria wasn"t accepted by Clark, what about him?
Aria and Clark almost knew each other since they were kids, Wyn just pops out of nowhere.
Wyn can"t accept another rejection.
From his father.
From Sheen.
And now, from Clark.
Sheen noticed that Wyn"s thinking too much, a thing that made her think that in this situation, they are similar.
And from her experience, she knows what Wyn needs the most.
"Hey. We"re always here for you, MC." Sheen pats Wyn"s hand to catch his attention.
"MC?" Blue asks.
"Well," Sheen smiled and looks at Wyn, "He was the main character on my first novel." Sheen started to talk about the first book she was working on before the thing between her and Kady.
They all laughed about how stupid their choices before was.
Elgeen just rests her chin on her hands as she sips her tea while listening to the story of her friends.
"So, don"t worry. Even if things are a bit different now, things will be better. And guess what, Bea"s wedding"s a few days away. We can pause everything for a day and just celebrate," Sheen said.
They all continue talking about their past and just enjoyed their time.
While Aria smirks devilishly as she held a picture of Cj with Clark, "My, what a cute pair of brothers."
The man who was working the bar when Clark"s father and Kirin met bows with a thick envelope of money on his hand, "Thank you, Ma"am."
"Go. Be sure that they will never find you again or I"m sure you"ll be dead. I"ll give the other half when you"re already in the other side of the world," Aria said and just gestures him to go away.
"Mrs. Guandemo, your husband has been calling you for multiple times," Aria"s a.s.sistant said while handing her the phone.
But she just rolled her eyes and turned around and went to sit down, "I have to go check my "nephew" and gather some supporting evidence about this hidden sibling relationship, has Louis got anything useful from that company?"
"Yes, Ma"am. It may help you with the DNA test." Her a.s.sistant nodded worriedly, knowing that this might put his Boss in danger especially if her husband finds out about her new plan to take over Star Company.
