Chapter 12 Humberto Bernard
No wonder he would come to the Sawyer’s villa to find me. Perhaps he had heard my mutter last night.
I thought I had to do something with it, or he might keep pestering me.
So, I asked him, “What do you want exactly?”
He let out a sigh and lifted a strand of hair before my chest, rubbing it gently while saying seriously, “You took my virginity. I’m not a casual person like the others. You have to be responsible for me.”
“Damn. This is bad,” I sighed in my heart.
If he wanted money, it would be fine for me, as my family was indeed wealthy. But he actually wanted me to take re- sponsibility for him. What could I do then? I couldn’t just marry him, could I?
That night’s drunkenness really brought me huge trouble. If I had known it, I wouldn’t have drunk that much.

while trying to pull my hair out of his hand.
We were too close at the moment, which made me blush and my heart race a bit.
I hadn’t found a good way to deal with this matter, and I needed time to think about it.
He seemed to have noticed my awkwardness. Lowering his eyes, he curled up his lips and whispered, “Okay.”
I breathed a sigh of relief and reluctantly added him as my friend on WhatsApp. After some thought, I said, “Let’s meet at Nocturne Bar tonight. We can discuss it then. But now, I have to go home.”
My phone had been vibrating just now because my dad had been calling me.
He would never call me if he didn’t have anything.
When I found out it was because of his cheating that my mom got depressed and died soon after, we completely cut
ties.
My stepmother, Alisa Conley, was originally Dad’s mistress, so I never liked her. As for my stepsister, Maleah Lucero, she was just as shameless as her mom, Alisa. So, we never got along well.
Now, I bet this phone call wasn’t for something good.
That man also noticed the calling, and his eyes darkened a bit. In the end, he replied to me in his deep voice, “Okay.”
I didn’t know what he was thinking.
But I was very satisfied with his sensible behavior.

Chapter 12 Humberto Bernard
When I was about to add a note for myself to identify him on WhatsApp, I asked him, “What’s your name?”
He remained silent for a moment, his gaze fixed on me, seemingly pondering over his words.
Soon, he answered me, “Humberto. Humberto Bernard.”
“Humberto Bernard?” I repeated his name.
Then, the two of us fell silent.
“A good name,” I remarked briefly.
After a short pause, I quickly added his name to the note.

Meanwhile, I felt like I had heard about this name somewhere before, but I couldn’t remember it for now.
“Well, never mind. There are so many people with the same name in this world. Why bother?” I thought to myself.
Then, I quickly forgot about it.
When Humberto saw my calm expression, his eyes flickered with a trace of complexity and interest.
Suddenly, I remembered that I hadn’t introduced myself, so I said to him, “My name is Brianna Lucero, the oldest daughter of the Lucero family. You’ve seen my ID, haven’t you? I won’t escape anyway. Alright. I gotta go home now. See you tonight.”
Without waiting for him to respond, I directly got into my car and left.
After I left, Humberto got into the black Cayenne at the entrance. But I didn’t see it.
The Lucero’s villa was not far from the Sawyer’s villa, and I got home in about half an hour.
As soon as I entered the living room, I saw Maleah wearing a luxurious outfit and sitting on the sofa watching TV.
Seeing me back, she immediately taunted, “Well, isn’t this my useless sister, who can’t even keep her fiance’s heart?”
