I was suddenly nervous.
Bea repeated the question when I didn't answer her immediately.
"T-two," I stammered.
"Can I see the picture of your ex?"
I frowned. "H-huh? Why? " my dead-malicious question.
"Nothing! Just let me look at it."
"I-I don't have a picture of him anymore," I said, avoiding her eyes.
"Sure?"
"Yes." I was nervous about the course of Bea's question.
"All right. If you don't want to show it, it's okay." She shrugged. "But I think, you're hiding something," she said while staring at my son's face intently.
"Wait! Let me interrupt your conversation, "Gee stopped the tension between us.
"Shh. Just observed, Gee." Bea faced me again. "Sam looks like him. I just noticed."
"H-huh?"
"Your son and th
“What are you thinking? You deeply thinking in silence again.” I looked up at the table in front of me. "May I know what it is?"“H-huh? U-uhm… ” I gulped. I shook slightly. “N-nothing. Just ignore me.” The day will also come when I can tell Brad my secret. and I think this was not the right place."Charm." My body chilled when he held my hands on top of the table. “I’m here, I’m ready to listen if you have a problem. Kindly share? Let's see if I can help with that.”"Nothing." I smiled a bit."You sure?" I nodded. “Okay, if that’s what you want. But always remember, I can listen to any problem you have. Please do not hesitate to open up to me anytime, okay?”I gulped again.If I could tell you the truth, would you
"You're finally here." Brad approached me as soon as I entered the office. It was as if he was hiding something behind him."S-sorry I'm late."“I know you lack sleep. So it’s okay.”I immediately blushed on both cheeks when I remembered what happened to us in his condo unit."For you." he handed me a bouquet. I got the card and read it.To My, Boss,My day is not complete when you’re not around.BradI smiled when I saw the heart shape on his handwritten card."Thanks for this." I smiled a little, but the truth was my heart was glad.He kis
Chapter 36When my crying subsided, I immediately told Bea everything that had happened.“Damn that old man! He knows nothing at all that is why he easily says that. If he only knew that his grandson was the one he called a bastard! Ugh, such an ashole old man!” her angry reaction. "So, what's your decision now?""I-I will resign."“What?”"That's better, Bey."“You think it’s okay? For me, no! Because all you have to do is listen to Brad's side. Don't be in a hurry, Cha. You better confront him about what happened. Let him know about your son and about what his father did to you.”“My God, Bea, I was already embarrassed and insulted by his father, that’s enough. I don't want to add more.”She shook her h
"Baby, hush, look, mommy wants to show you something," I said when Sam's sobbing in my chest subsided.He looked up at me. "What, Mommy?"I laid him on the bed. “Just wait, baby. Mommy will just get something.”I immediately rummaged through the albums inside my mini cabinet. Where our important family papers are also kept.I put down all the albums I got in the cabinet. I think it was time to let him know about my family. And here on these old albums, I’ll start everything."Mommy, what's that?" Sam's innocent question.“A family album. Take a look at it, baby.”Sam immediately opened the albums. I could see in his eyes the astonishment. “Mommy, you, right?” he pointed to my picture.“Yes, baby. T
Chapter 38I just ignored Brad and hurried out of his office. I felt him following me to the parking area.I ignored him as I snatched my car key from the bag. But then he stopped me and forcibly pulled me towards his car."Please not now, Brad! Let me go first. Let's talk next time." But he still wouldn't let me go. "Brad, what? Please, release me! I'm in a hurry." I even pushed him."You will be with me. I will come with you whether you want to or not."Suddenly the rotation of my world stopped. "Ugh? Ouch! What the!" I shot him an evil look when he forcibly put me in the driver's seat."Move!" Brad's strong command.I backed away to get out the other door. "Shit!" I cursed when the door was a lock. I turned to him."Whatever you open there, you can
"Hi there, little buddy."Suddenly I have swallowed again because my son was showing fondness to him. To his father. They actually met without me even knowing.Our eyes met as I turned to him.brad’s silence and dark stares were making me so uneasy. Anger still showed in his eyes, as if the evil look he was throwing at me penetrated to my bones. And it was also full of questions that he wanted me to answer directly.I knew he recognized his features to my little one. I admit that he looks very much like my son. It was as if they were split in two. Sam was his young version. No doubt.I stood next to my son's bed because I was feeling as if I was melting in the fire through his stares. I was also under a lot of pressure every time I heard her violent sigh.Brad walked to my son’s bed. He str
Brad was rich. He was an influential person and he had everything. So I was not surprised when the doctor and nurses said that the hospital would transfer my son as soon as possible.I arranged our things. I just let Brad decide now for my son. even the hospital bills, I was just surprised when the cashier at the counter revealed to me that he had already been paid.Martha and Nina arrived just in time from breakfast outside. We left immediately in an ambulance that would take us to the hospital where my son would be transferred.Upon arrival, we were immediately assisted by staff and taken to a large exclusive room of the hospital. The room was so very accommodating. Almost everything is fully equipped inside. It was a luxurious hospital suite. with strong aircon blows, with a large flat-screen TV, DVD p
Everyone was thrilled with my son's resilience. And they laughed, even more, when he frowned and frowned.“You're an instant daddy now, dude. But you didn't even bother to introduce yourself to your son?” laughed Greg.“Of course, Cha! why didn’t you introduce them and when he met your son ‘his father? I’m sure, Brad also doesn’t know his son’s full name,” Bea said."We forgot, we were more worried about our son's condition earlier," Brad answered and defended me. "Baby, are you mad at Daddy?"The boy shook his head and soon smiled. "No, daddy." He called Nina and Martha and offered food, but the two refused."It's just us, baby." Bea and Gee went nearer. so Brad and I stood up to let my two friends talk to my son.With nothi
