"Hey! Jacob?! Is that you?” I looked at the woman who called me. "Who are you?!" "Wow, Jacob, you forgot me right away. I'm Rowena, your future fiancée." "What?!" What is this woman saying? "Of course, I'm telling you the truth. We met before when we were still in primary school. I am your father's friend and business partner. We didn't see each other again after that because I was here in America to continue studying. It's good that we went to school together, I'll see you all the time. I'm sure we'll be in the same class." Hey! What kind of woman is this who talks so much I don't even ask. "Okay! I have to go because I will pick up Jenny." “Oh! My best competitor in school was also here." "Yes, why do you have a problem? It's none of your business if she's here too because we're twins. And besides, our parents decided that. So shut up, you're saying a lot, I'm not asking you." I left, knowing that she was embarrassed by what I was saying. I can have you too
“You’re the one I’m asking why you’re vacationing in the Philippines without my knowledge.”“When did my opinion and decision in life concern you? Don’t you care about me anymore?”“It doesn’t mean we didn’t just get along, but it’s only natural for a married couple to not get along sometimes, but I’m not saying that you can make a decision that I don’t know about.”“So, you want to control my life? For your info Patrick, we are only married on paper. But that doesn’t mean that you control my life. We have our own decisions in life, so you don’t care where I am now and when I will return to London.” Annoyed, said Patrick.He just kept quiet. Maybe he thought I had a point. I don’t plan to go back to London. I want to give birth in the Philippines. But I’m having a hard time now that my belly has grown a bit and I’m about to give birth.I need to ask my brother for help. I will call him.Danilo is Dina’s youngest brother. They are close to each other and they are the only two siblings.
I approached Papa Alfred’s table. I also saw Sir Loid there. I was nervous. What would I say to Papa?“Oh! My daughter, what are you doing here at the mall? Who is with you?“Alfred? Is Carmela your daughter?”“Yes, sir Loid, I’m sorry I couldn’t happily mention her to you. She is the one you bought as a gift at her graduation.”“Really! So, you mean she is a classmate of my children? But she works at my company.”I suddenly broke out in a very cold sweat, as if a lot of ice had been poured on my body. I was already awake, knowing that Papa would be angry with me because I didn’t tell him and Mama that I was working at Taylor’s company because Mama didn’t want to. I don’t even know what Mama’s reason is, but I’m sure she will preach to me when Papa comes home. I can see on Papa’s face that he is disappointed with me, but he is probably holding back because Sir Loid is in front of us.“Oh! Alright, Pa and Sir Loid, I’ll go first. Mama is waiting for me downstairs.”“Wait! Are you with
Dina has returned home to the apartment she rents. She still couldn’t get out of her mind the girl she had bumped into earlier in the hospital.Is Carina the girl I bumped into? But impossible! It’s been a few years and we don’t know the case about the disappearance of Carina and her daughter. But it is also possible that someone saw them in the sea and rescued them. It is necessary to investigate her and Carina. I will not stop until I can confirm who that girl is. My phone suddenly rang. An unknown number, I don’t want to answer because it has been called several times. “Hello! Who’s this please?“ No one answered. I was nervous. Who else has scared me? A few minutes later, I heard a woman’s grunt and a man’s voice. I can’t think of anything but my husband and friend in London. Those two are pigs. It annoys me. Just wait for me to give birth and I will come back to you, have fun and enjoy the happy days and when I return all the happy days that you have now, I will replace them

I’ll just do something.” Said his co-worker.“All right,” Carina brought the customer’s order to table 5.Carina didn’t notice that there was a little wet on the floor, so she slipped and the food she was carrying was out of balance. She was very embarrassed, and her companion, Dina, immediately approached and stood her u
Loid's vacation in London will end in a few days. He also felt sad because he would not see Carina for a long time. He couldn't understand himself, as if he was falling in love with the woman. So he made the most of the three days left on his vacation. He returned to the restaurant so he could see Carina again.When he was at the restaurant, he noticed Carina was not there. He could not see her. So he asked a coworker.“Good morning sir, please come in! We have here a table for two. It's beautiful here in this area so you can see the outside. Here is the menu, sir, just choose you.” Loid couldn't focus on the server because his eyes were looking for Carina."Can I take your order, sir?" the server asked again.“Ha?! Ah, sorry! It's the same thing I order every time I eat here.” Loid replied.“Okay, sir noted! Just wait for about 5 minutes, sir.”“Thank you! Ah, by the way! May I ask, where is Carina?”“Oh! Carina has been suspended for 7 days because last time a customer complained an
CHAPTER 3 ACCIDENTALLY ANSWERS HIMCarina was upset when she heard about what had happened to her brother. She no longer knew where to find money to send to her mother in the Philippines. She also remembers Loid. She knows it's sulking because she didn't show up for their conversation.She called Loid again, but he did not answer. They haven't been, but she is already hurt by what happened to them in the situation she is in now. She did not want trouble to come to their family.She called her mother again in the Philippines to ask about her brother.“Hello mom, how are you? What's the news with Carlos?” he asked worriedly.“She is still in I.C. U Carina. It's been a few hours since the doctor came out. I'm already anxious about your brother.”“Is that so? What a pity for my brother. Be strong mom, update me always. I will just find money here so I can send it to you.” Said Carina.Carina hung up the phone and was stunned again.A few hours later, Dina came home from work. She hasn't c
Carina didn't answer first, so Loid asked again.“What Carina? Will you accept my offer?” Loid asked again.“Ah! I'll think about it, sir. I don't want to bother you. I'm ashamed, this is a problem for our family.” Carina replied.“Don't think about that. The important thing is that you can send something to your family in the Philippines. How is your brother? Is he okay?”"Not yet, sir, he's still in I.C.U."“Ah! Is that so unfortunate? Just be strong and everything will be okay.”"Thank you, sir Loid."Their conversation ended. Carina's mood calmed down, but she remembered what she had told her manager, that she had already agreed to its offer. He also didn’t know how to tell his manager that she was going to back down from its offer.~~~~~The next day…She has returned to work because her days of suspension are over. She saw her manager at the door of his office as if he was waiting for her. She was getting nervous because he had not yet told his manager of her decision. She remem
