    Seeing Fabian in the lobby clouded my mind with mixed emotions. I didn't know what to say and couldn't bring myself to look at him. I know he is disappointed in me and his silence proves it all. I had expected him to lash out or question my intentions, but he remained mum, and his quiet demeanor terrified me more than any outburst could have,I'm biting my nails anxiously, waiting for him to come in. The sound of the doorknob turning and the door opening and closing signaled that he was in, yet he remained silent. I don't know how to start a conversation with him. The fierceness I always wear suddenly vanished in front of him. I slowly turned around to face him, he stood there looking at me with mixed emotions. "I'm sorry!" I managed to say fidgeting with my fingers."Sorry! Is this enough words to explain everything? Tell me, Eloisa, because I don't understand," he finally speaks.

    "Where are you going? Don't you know we are going to visit the branch today before the launch, and you have a board meeting?" I asked, watching Fabian grab his things in a hurry. He seemed like he was about to miss an important meeting or a flight, his actions frantic and rushed. "To the airport, because of Denise I almost forgot my flight." He replied annoyed. "Airport? What and why will you go to the airport when we have an important itinerary today!" I asked confused checking his schedules in my hands. "What the fuck again Fabian. Cleared schedule for a week for a business meeting. Damn it, Fabian, since when do you care about the itineraries I fix for you? These are selected and very important!"

I thought she just wanted to manipulate me but I confirmed she was my daughter. I almost killed my own flesh and if that happens, I will make sure Denise or Kate will pay the damages. "Where is she?" I asked Kaito. "She was cooking!" Kaito relied. "What? Check what she is cooking! Who knows what she will put in it," I instructed him, my trust in her shattered. While she had saved Yumi by claiming she was my daughter, her deceit needed addressing to prevent a repeat occurrence. "Never mind, bring Yumi we should eat outside and have fun." I changed my mind.
