"Good morning." Magnus greeted as he placed a soft kiss at my head and smiled genuinely. "I prepared breakfast already, eat first with me before going to your work, okay?" I nodded as a response and excused myself to go to the bathroom and immediately took a bath after brushing my teeth.

I'm still pissed about what happened, she's really slowly getting to my nerves. As much as I want to kill her, I can't. Well, technically because Agents might found out easily, I'm on their target list as of now and I can't risk it.

Huh, as if I will let them catch me and take me behind bars, they won't get me alive.

I left our room, slowly walking towards the kitchen and sat across Magnus who's gazing at his coffee, pouting. I giggled and snapped my fingers in front of him making him go back to senses and just smiled at me.

"You have a lot in mind, care to share?" I asked, putting rice and dish on his plate.

He sighed and drank his coffee before facing me. "I don't love her." He cupped my cheeks and stared at me, intently.

My brows furrowed, completely confused. "And? You're so random, bub." I chuckled and continued eating, avoiding him.

"I heard you cried last night, overthinking, questioning yourself and my love for you." He sighed and held my hand making me flinched and gasped. "I won't tell you to stop overthinking because I know that it's hard but..." he plastered as sad smile making my heart, ache.

I bit my lower lip and muttered a sorry after hearing what he said. "But please, trust me, trust my love for you, believe me." He said, almost a whisper which made my heart dropped and felt guilty.

"Magnus..." I softly uttered and instantly got up and hugged him, resting my chin on his head while him embracing me, resting his head on my stomach. "I trust you, Magnus." He embraced me tighter making me smile.

Tumingala siya saakin, he stared at me like I'm the most beautiful woman for him. "I love you."

"I'll take every bullets for you, every bullets, Crystal." He softly said with sincerity in his eyes making my heart ache and beats faster than the usual.

I, I really don't deserve him.

I just nodded and didn't respond, I hugged him tighter and bit my lower lip to contain my sobs. I caressed his hair and gently cupped his face. I just smiled at him, assuring that everything is alright and came back to eating.

Will you stay even if you saw how ruthless I can be?

I ate my breakfast before grabbing my keys and waved goodbye to him. "I'll go now, thanks for the breakfast and good luck!" I kissed and winked at him. "I know you'll do great, I'm so proud of you, bye!" I sighed and left.

I checked my pocket and took my phone when I felt it vibrated, I sighed before answering Leo's call. "What?" I asked, driving my car on the way to my house to take my gun with me.

He giggled. "My lunch." He reminded making me laugh and shook my head in disbelief.

He called just to remind me this? Unbelievable.

"Whatever Leo, nandyan na ba sila?" I asked, pertaining to the Mallari's who I have to deal with today.

They're one of most powerful family when it comes to business, especially the dirty ones. They had been on the top but went to 4th rank when Alcantara and Vallejo came. Well, what can I say? I'm both and I'm the heir of the both companies.
