"I love you."

He said after breaking the kiss and kissed my forehead. He even wiped the now dry tears from my face and whispered...

"I can't undo the things I've done in the past. I don't know how to take the pain I've caused you, but if you'll give me a chance..."

And those words... those exact words made me open my eyes and suddenly brought me back to reality.

"No!" I found my self again. I pushed him and got up immediately.

"Samantha..." He uttered in shock. He got up too and looked at me with confusion written in his eyes.

"I won't give you a chance! I won't give you another chance to hurt me again!"

"But I thought---"

"Yes, I said I love you but that doesn't mean I'll give you another chance! I can't be with you anymore, besides, I forgot to tell you that I also love David."

"That's not true! You don't love him!" His voice rose and we started the glaring competition.

"I love him! He accepted me and all my flaws. He treated me the way a woman should be treated by her man."

"No, you don't love him because the exact words came from you earlier! You said you never really forgot me and that you still love me!"

"And so, if I still love you? That doesn't stop me from loving him and being with him! It's my choice and tomorrow, I will file a divorce petition whether you like it or not!"

"I won't sign it!"

"You have no choice but to sign it!"

He shook his head. "No, I'm not going to sign it, especially now that I know you still have feelings for me, I won't do the same mistake of letting you go again. So, I'm sorry because I won't sign any documents stating that I'm letting you go." He continued to shake his head.

"Fine! Then go ahead! Try it! Don't sign the divorce papers and I will continue to hate you even in my last breath!"

"Samantha Williams!"

"Soriano! Samantha Soriano!" I levelled my voice with how loud his voice was. "I'll just send you the copies tomorrow."

"You can't do that!"

"Tss!" I snorted. "I can and I will!"

And with that, I headed my way towards the door. I took the chance that he's still in a daze and hurriedly opened the door, but only to be surprised when I came out and saw the group of employees gather outside the door of his office.

"Huh!" They all gasped in unison, but I don't have time to greet them as I heard Luke's voice calling my name.

I quickly ran to the elevator and thanked God that the glass door had finally closed before Luke could even reach it outside.

"Sam!"

I bit my lip when I saw him run to the next lift.

I just uttered a silent prayer when nobody enters the lift until I reached the first floor. I just came from the 41st floor, but I felt like it was the longest elevator ride I have ever experienced in my life.
