Blurb
Jace Albertus Allegro all his life was treated to be someone who needed the extra attention after his parents went missing and so everybody in the clan treated him so nicely that they forgave him every time he commited mistake.
And he was very very tired of it.
The Allegro empire is so vast and Air Allegro, his cousin and head of their businesses has given him their construction business to manage.
And through this, he was trying so hard to prove something to the Allegro Matriarchs.
He wanted to make the construction business more successful than it already was.
He wanted to prove that he can go great lengths without so much of their help.
He wanted to show the clan that he is as capable as his other cousins, not because he was favoured.
He lost his parents but not his ability to be successful like the rest of the Allegros.
Meanwhile, Filippina Hidalgo is a renowned interior designer of the country. She is the only grandchild of Lorenza Torres, one of the biggest landowner of the City.
The story began when Jace wanted to expand his construction business but he seemed not to be able to do it successfully because of one owner who refuses to sell a significant amount of land needed for the said expansion.
According to his representatives. A certain Filippina Torres, grandchild of Lorenza Torres who was the former owner of the land has declined every offer.
Who would decline a good amount for a piece of land?
Only Filippa!
He never thought that this person was thesame person he used to bully back in college. A feisty woman named Filippa Hidalgo, not Filippina Torres! Why did she change name anyway? He kept on pestering her back then because she chose to dress like a boy, feeling one of the boys. Something that irked him to the core.
Now, with a not so good past together, how can he convince her to sell the land?
Selling the land to him is paramount to success and approval from the Allegro Matriarchs—his beloved abuelas.
Had he known Filippa to be useful someday, he would have befriended her and not bullied her. She even bacame the laughing stock of the whole school when she fell for him. Changing her ways for him only to be betrayed in the end.
However, is Filippa trying to get even? Is she declining every offer for the land just to avenge herself from what she did in the past?
It must be. What else could be the reason?
Now the big problem stood still, how will he be able to lure her once more?
Surely many things have changed and Filippa isn't the same as before.
Now that Filippa has what he wants the most? He, Jace Allegro has a lot to lose.
And he's not ready. Not this time where he can prove his worth to his Abuelas.
He'll just have to do everything to get the land.
Every possible thing.
