The day after, she was instructed by her parents to sign a contract in compensation for her upbringing misfortune to their family. That contract is a marriage certificate. She got married without meeting her husband. Three years later, she was called at the company that she's applying. Not knowing that the boss of this company is her husband and the stranger who's the father of her triplets.
View MoreUriel didn't expect her to ask him the same question. He might not show any emotions, deep inside he knows how surprised he is. He's thinking whether to answer her honestly or not? But, what caught him up is her honesty. He did asked her and she answered him without even having a second thought for being a stranger. You know, it must be a secret that cannot be easily opened to anyone. But she did. Time passed by, she didn't get an answer from him. So, she considered it as a privacy that her boss couldn't open, especially to someone like her. How dare she asked that when she's just a nobody? "I apologize for asking you so suddenly about that, Sir." She apologized and gradually resume her unfinished food. Uriel was looking at her. Every movements she creates and as well as every emotions she have shown. One unknown feeling is that, he didn't feel harm or discomfort from her. It's as if, he knows her. But cannot remember when and where. By just hearing her apologizing for asking h
Uriel was busy when Rain interrupted him. He looked up to her and put everything from his hand to the desk. "The food is here, Sir. I should set them up so you could eat." She said and smiled before turning her back at him. It was a fast pace interaction between him and her. He followed her by gaze and following every actions she's doing to prepare the foods he ordered. He saw how it took her much effort to keep the things she's working aside before setting all the foods on the midi table in the living area. After a couple of minutes, she turned to his place and invited him to dinner. "Sir, the food is ready." Uriel blinked his eyes naturally and eventually stood up. He walked towards the living area and sat comfortably at the single sofa. The moment he had his seat, she excused herself silently with the files on hand. She carried a lot and that confused him. Because to him, they're supposed to eat together. It's not like, he brought dinner for himself only, but also for her. "Whe
All of a sudden, Uriel requested her to stay. Rain had no room for rejection as it is a part of her work, although, there’s a huge part of her that was so disappointed because she thought she could finally go home and have a rest. "If you wish, Sir. I shall stay and lend you my help." She answered. "I appreciate it, Miss Esquivel." He tilt his head up to look at her. When he found her eyes looking back at his, he couldn't figure something as to why those deep emerald eyes gives him some chill, which is indeed quite unknown. "What is it that you want me to help you with, Sir. So, we could begin it." She didn't let the topic loose and asked the necessary things that her boss wants her to help with. Uriel took off his sight from her and check the things that he needs her to work with. When he found the gigantic files piling up beside his table, he pointed it for her to see. "It's here." He must be saving his words for that. Rain took several steps to see where he was pointing, her e
When Rain finally handed the files back to the said department, she went home immediately. But as she was walking towards her house, the memory of her staring at her boss's was still fresh. It felt so slow like a drama, whereas the main girl character was astonished to the main lead character. She crouched on her own head as it practically drowned her from living inside her memory. "Enough of that, Rain." She scolded herself for that. "You're home now. Quit fantasizing." She hissed and composed herself once again before opening the entrance door of her house. As expected, Bea is there. Probably, waiting for her. But this time, the kids are still awake. Playing rubics cube and lego toys in the living area. "Mommy!" The three adorable kids beemed when they noticed her presence. Rain smiled heartily. Upon seeing her kids, all of her worries were replenished by them. It seems like these children have their own magic to heal her from distraction. "Hello, babies." She knelt on the groun
As they got back at the company, they went back to each of their designated work as if nothing happened. On their way back, the two brothers were quite, Aiden was observant to give the peace that his brother need. For Rain, she just feel like she's not in a proper place to question or to speak, right after the encounter. Even if she was the innocent victim who was judged by his boss' mother. Although, the woman did apologized to her before they separate ways. Her boss did its job to stand up for her and that was enough. "Hi, good afternoon." A lady in a corporate attire went to her desk with a small and shy smile crept in its lips. Rain stood up. "Hi, good afternoon toom how may I help you, miss?" She politely greeted and cater the girl.The girl handed a few files to her, "The department of finance asked for the signature of the CEO. This is the summary of the sales report for the last six months." Rain took the files and checked it individually. After a few seconds, "When do you
As the three of them entered the designated hotel which they are going to meet with her bosses' family, she couldn't contain the uneasiness building up within her. The surrounding might feel cold, but it's indeed nothing compare to tye coldness she's having in both of her hands and feet. Yes, she's nervous. Really. "It seems like they're already waiting for us." Aiden spoke and took a glance of her. "Rain, you're quite." She blinked more than usual. More than thrice as she looked back at Aiden. "Oh, did I missed something?" She replied. "No, nothing. Just wondering why you're quite." Aiden just shrugged and smiled. 'What am I supposed to talk about? It's not like they're like an ordinary people, like me.' Rain said at the back of her mind. Uriel on the other hand was just observing his two subordinates. He was talking with his brother earlier regarding the status of their business, as he just replaced their grandfather from the position of a CEO. Also, the presence of his secr
Rain roused up early and prepared all the necessary things for her and her children. She took care of them right after cooking their breakfast. Taking them to bathe and helping them change their clothes. "Alas, finish your food, alright? You'll be spending 5 hours in school so better fill your tummy with enough food." She reminded her other son as she took care of her daughter, Amy. "I know, mommy." Alas lazily agreed. "Wasting the graces will be punished by god, mommy, right?" Duke said. Alas glared his brother. "I'm eating it all, Duke. Can't you see?" He seems annoyed."You're eating, but you're displacing the veges." Duke bashed back. Alas face dishevelled. "You're annoying, tsk." Alas commented. "Enough, boys. We are in front of the food." Rain lectured his boys. "And you, baby Alas, you are not allowed to leave the table if you're not eating the veges. Do you understand?" With a heavy sigh and a heavy shoulders, Alas nodded in silence. "Okay, mommy." Rain smiled at her s
"What took you so long?" His voice was stern when he asked. He seemed unimpressed for I come here late of his expected time. I'm speechless. He just called me and I went here as fast as I could. Only a few minutes has passed by, since that happened. I don't know what to say and how to answer, because I'm fully aware that I'm not at fault. Should I say... He has issues and I'm unknowlegeable of it. "My brother is a playboy. He's not a good influence to anyone." He suddenly added. This time, he's calm while reading the files I give him. And I don't have an idea as to why he's giving me that kind of advise when I'm married. "Pardon, Sir?" He stopped and took a glimpse of me. For some reason, he gave me the chills that makes me feel uncomfortable. "Nevermind, Miss Esquivel." He said after a few seconds of looking. "You can go back to your post." I breath in relief. I thought it would turn to be something serious. "Before I leave, do you have any other concern which I can assist
I carefully sat on the seat opposite to the CEO. I don't know how to interact, since I'm also insecure with my actions. I'm worried that he might dislike me because of that. "How old are you now, Miss Esquivel?" He suddenly asked. I'm not touching anything on the table yet. "I'm 27 years old, sir." I answered politely. "You're young. How old were you when you got married?" He's eating and seemingly unbothered while asking. "I was 23 incoming 24 when I got married." This feels awkward, really. "How do you define marriage? Did you marry your husband because you were in love with him?" I don't know if this is still a work related topic that we must discuss, but... "Sadly, I didn't marry for love." I smiled, and for some reason, I feel like I want to open up. "So, I can't really define the essence of marriage without love as its core value." Yet, I end up stopping myself from serving the first summary of my life. He's still a stranger even if he's entitled as my boss. I want to kno
