8 Then, Let's do this

"What are you thinking about, Nicole Lim? Am I that bad? Am not your type? What is she thinking about?

" Listen, Derek, you don't look bad, and u are definitely my type and........ why exactly did I tell him that? Her face showed a little embarrassment and she blushed. ' Thank God' Derek signed, " so what's stopping you? I promised to give you time to sort yourself out but can't you at least give me a chance to know you better? please? Let's do this, Nicole, please". He was still kneeling and Nicole felt bad seeing him on his knees, she was old enough to get married but at this time how can she get married to this guy? or even date him? she kept contemplating, moving around the room, she then came and sat on the stool close to the bed and signed, "okay then, let's get to know ourselves first, then if things go well, we can take things to the next level, okay?

Saying this, Derek beamed, his chiseled face lit up with his sweet smile making Nicole blush hard. " Then dress up, we are going out to celebrate the first day of dating! Derek was happy beyond words, she said yes! Nicole was shocked at his reaction but didn't say a word, she just walked to the closet to change.

The Philippines, after 8months

Martha was sitting on the sofa in her house, the sitting room was well furnished with shiny black furniture and the walls were painted white and it contrasted well with the black furniture. Martha liked her space, she decided to buy this house after she divorced her ex husband and father of her child, Miller Lim, that jerk! Thinking about him alone makes her want to puke! He was careless and uncaring and that cost her Nicole, her daughter. She has been missing for 8months and no one can find her! She even had to ask for help from ...... ( this will be know soon😁) but to no avail, where could she be? 'where is my Nicole? Her thoughts were interrupted by the phone, and she answered the call without checking the ID and a deep and husky voice was heard, " Martha, baby, where have u been? I have missed you, don't you miss me?

"What do u have to say? Go straight to the point!

" Martha baby has become bold! Okay, okay, I don't want Martha baby to be annoyed, I'll say it then, I found your daughter, the beautiful, Nicole Lim!

She then turned her attention to the voice, "What did you say? where did you see her? is she okay?

" Calm down, Martha baby, she's fine, she was even on a date with a very handsome man, they looked good together just like you and I when we were younger! hahaha! how I miss those days! But Martha didn't want to listen to the crap he was spewing, she finally heard from him and about Nicole, She needed to find her first, "If she's fine then where is she?

" tsk, tsk, tsk, came the voice, you cared about her a lot but u don't and never cared about me like this, am hurt Martha baby, am even jealous "

" Stop your nonsense and tell me where she is!

" Fine, fine, Don't shout on me, she's in Sun City, she's staying in Moon Drop, the Yoon Mansion " And the call dropped. Martha didn't hesitate, she called her secretary, " Lynn, book a ticket for me, am going to Sun City, and make arrangement for a hotel as well".

I'll find you Nicole, soon!
