Max Collins is the second ex-girlfriend as Darlene “Darcy” Sibuyan. She and Liam met after Liam broke up with Alex. They became friends until they fell for each other. But when an opportunity abroad presented itself to Darcy, she decided to take it. The long distance relationship didn’t work for both of them, eventually breaking them apart.
The third ex-girlfriend is Rhian Ramos as Sophia Elizabeth “Zoe” Velasquez. She is a swimwear designer and blogger who’s always out for fun. Her parents separated when she was young which is why Liam became her pseudo-family. However, Zoe’s possessive tendencies and Liam’s busy schedule is the reason why their relationship fell apart. But ever since breaking up with him, Zoe regretted her decision and wants Liam back.
Dennis Trillo is William Dominic “Liam” Ilustre or Alex, Darcy, and Zoe’s ex-boyfriend. He is the ideal boyfriend-handsome, smart, loving, and a true gentleman. He manages his own organic farm and dreams of a big, happy family. He eventually meets a fatal accident and wakes up from coma to find his three exes together in his hospital room.
Three perfectly lovely women are still in love with him. But who will win his heart again? More importantly, how does friendship thrive among Alex, Darcy, and Zoe if they were all once romantically linked with the same man?
