Meanwhile... This is a very busy day for Kristina since this Apparels and Fashions Company and Hard Core Men's Undergarments launch. She still handles this big event even though Luther informed Mr. Abaya of her resignation already.Apparels and Fashions Company has been Kristina's life ever since she graduated from her Business course. It is the same company as well to which she was molded as a young and promising employee from rank-and-file to a successful Branch Manager. It's really quite hard for her that Mr. Luther Gracer will have that drastic and impulsive decision of pulling her from this company."Are the wardrobes of the models okay?" she asked Roxan while holding her checklist for this event. She doesn't want to fail with this grand launch. It's not the first launching of the new brand she handled but this will be her first-ever Grand Launch off a big Brand, not to mention it was Mr. Gracer's brand."Yes, Madam. All set," Roxan replied while also having a list of her checkl
Early morning at Hard Core Group of Companies Building...It was Kristina's first day at HardCore as Luther's OIC for his General Manager and COO position.As much as Kristina's resistance, she can't do anything about it since Luther manipulated everything.It was a tough decision for her but then she needs to fulfill her responsibility for him.She knew also that on the other hand, it was indeed a deed of faith from Luther.It wasn't bad after all. To take care of his company while he was still recuperating.Luther needs to recover well from his heart failure since it wasn't easy to recuperate.She will act as his OIC for the time being and needed to be his eye for the company's security as well.Luther needs a full rest and should not be stressed and she was the only one he trusted to handle the responsibility for a while.Luther knew that Kristina can do her job well, and he is assured that she is pure and won't take advantage of this authority and power compared with his Vice Pres
As Kristina is preparing to send Chad to school, a message pops in..."Good morning my love. How are you?" message from Nathaniel."I'm good. How about you? I hope you are safe." she replied"I've missed you already," he saidKristina replied, "I've missed you too. It's great that you have a signal now," she said. She is quite happy hearing Nathaniel's voice but she can't be that excited anymore. "Yes, upon having a signal I immediately message you. I want to call you but I know that at this time, you are still preparing for your morning routines," he said."Actually, yes. I will leave already after Chad had his breakfast," Kristina says while putting all her things in her car. She will later ask Chad to hitch the car already."Ahh okay. How about Luther? Is he well already?" he now shifts his topic to Luther.As much as Kristina wanted to inform everything to Nathaniel, she thought it was not the proper time for now. She would like to tell him about her resignation and suddenly took
Early morning as Kristina woke up, her eyes were swollen due to profuse sobbing overnight. She was so hurt by what she learned last night. How can Paulo do that to her? She trusted him so much. She sobs once more. Her heart is so heavy already making her felt difficulty in breathing.Her fear of losing him because of their long-distance love affair seems to become already and she is not yet ready.Suddenly she felt dizzy and needs to run to her bathroom. She is having stomach discomfort. She had an ulcer since she gave birth to Chad, but it seemed that it's recurring right now. With all her stress and whole night crying, she felt that she wants to throw up. She really suffers from acid reflux making her vomit profusely.She is so exhausted and felt sick after throwing up. She held her painful stomach and go back to her bed. She laid down and message his brother Rodel to send Jude to school today as she can't move right now due to a stomach ache."Do you want me to send you to the hosp
After her 1 week of sick leave, Kristina decided to come to Hard Core Office and work already. It's time for her to do her duty as a new OIC of Luther. She wanted to pay back all the good deeds being done to him by Luther. He is so kind and considerate. At Mr. Gracer's private office, Kristina is now seating at his swivel chair as his OIC. There were lots of proposals and documents to review before she relays them to Luther. She reviews all the reports well and puts some suggestions and resolutions with those before she deliberates them with Luther. She doesn't sign any documents yet without a prior discussion with Luther first. Kristina invited Roxan for a lunch. She missed her secretary so much. She will offer her to transfer at Hard core and be her exclusive secretary. She is much comforted working with her though she doesn't have any difficulties with Shaira, Luther's executive secretary then. In fact, Shaira is very helpful with her and very efficient in her work. She doesn't ha
Kristina arrived early morning at Hard Core Group of Companies as she wanted to do her work early.She has a lot of books to review in the finance department.As Kristina was reviewing all the documents in front of her, she found out that during Luther's leave, there was a discrepancy with the corporation's financial reports.Several departments have over-budgeted some projects that didn't match the figures in the reports. She reviews other documents and she found some more discrepancies that caught her attention.It's not just a small sum of money, they were millions involved here.She immediately asked for an outsourced Financial Auditor for a thorough audit and investigation of this matter.She cannot trust the corporate's Auditor and Financial Officers to investigate to avoid connivance and other fishy things inside.She knew what to do already.She was trusted by Luther in this position because somehow Luther knew how meticulous and keen she is when it comes to work, that she can
There were lots of things that happened to her these past days that she almost forgot that she had a family as well.She hadn't visited her parents in their home already.Her father misses her son Chad. Her brother Kristof is the only one who visits her and most of the time took care of Chad when she had important errands to make.What kind of daughter she is? She asked herself.Kristina was quite afraid of how is she going to share the news with her family, especially her mother.She knew that they will be disappointed with her again.During her first pregnancy, though it wasn't easy for her to say the news before, she suffered a lot emotionally from her mother.But then her mother accepted what had happened since she was only 18 years old then and quite aggressive yet didn't know anything at all.But now, she's an adult already, and with a son yet another pregnancy with another man being her news.She is having a headache.She knew that she will be disgraced by her mother now.It is
Luther came early tonight to Kristina's apartment to fetch the mother and son pair.Chad was so happy to see Luther."Tito Luther, good evening," he runs and climbed to him. Luther carried the little fellow in his arms."I miss you," he kissed his cheeks."I miss you more Tito Luther," Chad said to him while resting his head on Luther's shoulder.Kristina saw this scene when she is going downstairs. She was so happy seeing her son being comfortable with Luther as well. Her heart is so much pounding with joy.Luther's kindness is contagious. Her mobile phone rings..."Sister, what time are you coming in? Dad is longing for Chad already. You have to bring some extra clothes they are requesting you two to stay here in our home this weekend," her brother Kristof told him."Okay, we will be coming with Luther," she said so that her brother can inform their parents that she has company."Alright, I'll inform Mom and Dad," Kristof replied."Thank you, brother," she said."Welcome," he answe
