It didn't take long before the lawyer went to the study room and have a conversation with the chairman. During dinner, they did not engage in any dialogue regarding his relationship with the mother of her unborn child. Both are careful not to touch that one subject that is considered taboo in front of the children. Imman knocked on the door gently and was allowed by the chairman to enter. He sat on the chair opposite the chairman, looking so tense and unexpectedly nervous about what he will hear from the chairman.
Rafael Agustin got up from his chair and walked slowly, with both his hands behind his back. After a minute of silence, he decided to start the conversation with the lawyer. This time, he already went back to his seat and examined Imman seriously. "Imman," he said. "I know that whatever my opinion will be, there is no way to stop you and my daughter from getting married. She talked to me last night and she even mentioned what happened
Everyone who has seen Imman and Ella has thought that they are a couple and were married for a long time. Many a time when the pregnant woman had to ask the lawyer to assist her for she is feeling dizzy and while roaming around looking for the proper clothes for their child. At times, she had to stop and sit down with the assistance of Imman who was glad that he had come with her and promised her that he would also come next time to help her with choosing the stuff for their baby. Most of the clothes they have bought were light colors and all with shades of blue. Imman personally chose the pajamas for his son which resembles the ones being worn by his youngest son to Cassandra but were fit for the newly-born child. They spent almost two hours shopping and were exhausted by doing so. Before going home, they decided to eat lunch in a restaurant nearby. No one could be happier than Ella herself. She has been showing off to the people around the charisma
Early in the morning, the following day, Imman came in early and placed his resignation letter on chairman Schweitzer's desk. He did not wait for him to come, instead, he told the secretary that the chairman does not need to talk to him anymore for they are already done talking. More and more employees have come and greeted the former vice-chairman, having no idea that he is no longer part of the multi-billion company. Before he started driving his car, he called Cassandra and asked her if they could meet up in a restaurant near the children's school. He knew that the heiress is on her way home after bringing the children to school. Imman was surprised to see that Cassandra was already waiting for him at the table near one of the windows. They kissed each other on the lips and sat opposite. "Have you slept well, honey?" Imman asked his beloved. "Yes, of course, how about you, dear? You don't look fine..." she retorted. &nbs
Now that Imman has revealed his true feelings to another woman, he resolved to let Cassandra know of his intention to continue their wedding. He wants to know if the heiress would still accept him or if he will be scorned again by her. Inside his car, he saw messages coming from Ella, wanting him to come again that night but he did not reply to her messages or even tried to call her. This action of his made the woman a bit sad but she told herself that she has to be patient and never forget that Imman loves her too and he will come for her anytime. On his way to the Agustin mansion, he stopped by a flower shop and bought a bouquet of red roses which he intended to give to the mother of his three children. He also brought with him the bicycle for his son and the big dollhouse that his daughter asked him to buy. Only Cassandra was at the house that day. She received Imman with an embrace and kisses him on his lips. "What are those Imman? You have brou
Elijah went home alone. His auntie Jane was surprised not to see him at school when she came to pick her son Billy and him up. He told his cousin that he had to go to a friend's house and that he will go home by himself. Cassandra got alarmed when Jane called and informed her about her son. She called Elijah immediately but he did not bother answering his phone. She got a text message coming from him, saying that he is on his way home, and she must not get worried. Her son rented a taxi cab to bring him to the mansion. Whenever the twins needed the help of their elder brother, they call him into the living room. That afternoon, the kids told him that they have been treated by their parents to an ice cream parlor where they ate their favorite ice cream flavor. "You know what Elijah, I've eaten two scoops of chocolate ice cream with peanuts, it's so delicious and yummy!" said Isabella to her brother while she starts doing her assignment with his help.
The following day, Imman went to court and attend the hearing with his client. The trial went well and the verdict went in his favor. To celebrate their victory, his client asks him to eat lunch with him and his family. The client - doctor Teodoro Marquez, was accused of murdering his ex-wife but in the end, the true killer has been found and it was her lover. Imman excused himself and said to him that he had an important meeting to attend. "Next time attorney, please free to come to my house, and if you need any help regardless of what it is, I will try to help you." the doctor said to him. Imman thanked him and hurried up to the Schweitzer's mansion. He called her on his way and the young mother replied that she had been waiting for him since morning. He apologized to her and told her that he will come as fast as he could. Imman did not inform Cassandra of what had happened between him and Ella for she will surely get hurt because of his betrayal a
At the attorney's law firm, one visitor has come whom he did not expect at all. It was his former wife - Daniella. She greeted him with a kiss on his cheeks and hugged him lightly, the way friends do when they meet. "How are you Imman? Is everything ready for the wedding next week?" asked the ex-wife. "I'm fine, Dani! How about you? I heard you are dating the CEO of the Aguirre Corporation, I hope that you'll marry him someday." He chuckled as he said this to his ex-wife who only smiled at him. Then she replied, "It's not true, Imman. We are friends and the one whom he is dating is also a friend of mine" "Your dad told me the other day. I do hope that you'll marry someday and forget me, Dani, you deserved to be happy..." Imman said seriously. They were sitting in front of each other, barely talking but when Daniella's eyes met his, an old feeling rekindled again on the woman's side, which didn't even go even after the
The night before Imman took his children to his mistress, he called his eldest son to join him in the garden and asked him to spare some time for him. His mother was also there, sitting beside the lawyer. Their teenage son was smiling as he approached his parents. The couple grinned back and commanded him to sit between them. "Why do you want to talk to me, dad? I have been doing great at school and I don't have any problems with my siblings and tomorrow, I'll see the little one again, what is this all about dad?" the teenager was perplexed for he had seen no reason why his father, along with his mother had to talk to him alone. "Son," the attorney said. "Dani told me that you broke up with Amanda, is it true?" his son's head bowed down in shame, not wanting to reply to his father's question. "It is true, then. Well, you are still young to even have a serious relationship with Amanda but you can still be friends with her right?" he asked the young man agai
Just after thirty minutes, a car stopped in front of the Schweitzer's mansion - it was Cassandra's. She was wearing a dress that vividly show her hourglass figure and she had a little make-up on her face. It was the nurse who opened the door for her and told her to come inside but before she even made one step inside, she confronted the nurse and pushed her making her stumble on the floor. "Are you the one who hit my child, huh?" she asked, with her eyes full of anger. "How dare someone like you, hurt my kid! As far as I know, you are the nurse who is in charge of the infant, and I bet you have already hit him too without his mother seeing it" she added. Cassandra is already inside the mansion and heard the voices of the twins coming in her direction. "We are not yet done, nurse! You'll see whom you are dealing with!" The nurse got up and pushed Cassandra on the wall, which shocked the heiress terribly. "I'm not afraid of you, ma'am! Your daughter sh
Imman went inside the kitchen unnoticed by his former mistress. He held her waist from behind and hugged her tightly. Ella was startled, turned around, and saw the handsome features of the lawyer. "Imman, I didn't see you coming..." He was pressing her hard to the wall, kissing her forehead, her lips, then on her neck. He stopped when he heard little footsteps coming from behind, then he heard a little boy calling him, incessantly. "Daddy, daddy! Where are you!' the boy was running hard and gasping for breath. When he saw his father, he pulled his arms and said. "Dad, please stay with me in the playroom, mom is still cooking, so we could stay play...then later please help me choose what to bring for my older siblings tomorrow...come now, please!" He did not resist his son's demand and let him be pulled away from his mother. Ella grinned at her son who is so comfortable being with his father. She knows later on that Imman will stay with her the whole
Two weeks before Christmas, Imman's children have already prepared their gifts for their father and their grandparents on both sides. They also bought gifts for the little one who is now five years old and is very much excited to see his mother again who will spend the vacation with them. Imman, as usual, is not in the good mood. It will be the third time that he will spend the holiday without his wife. "Grandpa, can you please help me put these little socks on the Christmas tree, please? Mom will come and she will put something inside my socks, I know that!" said his grandson whose eyes were the same as his and all of his other children. He lifted him and kissed his cheeks before putting him down on the floor. "Thank you, grandpa! I'm going to dad and ask him to give me more socks so I can have more gifts from uncle and auntie!" the boy ran away shouting the name of the twins. If only you are here, Cassandra, then life cou
The day of the wedding has arrived. The church was decorated with an abundance amount of flowers of different species. Guests have come to witness the union of two people who have met fifteen years ago but only had the chance to pursue their dream of becoming that fateful today. Isabella looks very pretty as one of the flower girls while her twin brother, the ring bearer was the cutest boy in the crowd. Even Elijah, his father's best man, looks so happy to realize the dream of his parents. Now they could properly be called a family and be with his father every day. When he first saw his father on the beach, he started to believe that his parents will stay together, and after the accident that he was involved in, it became real. They have planned their wedding but his dad goes missing and marries someone else. His mother did not know that he cried a lot when his father got lost at the sea. At a very young age, he had to care for his mother who was als
Arriving home with the twins, Cassandra already saw the lawyer's car outside their mansion. He was already inside, waiting for them. Her mother, Amelia was the one who opened the door for him(she did not work that day because of her migraine). It was a relief to see her mother home and she decided to talk to her later on when the lawyer goes home. The children were delighted to see their father waiting for them. They kissed him both and his young daughter pulled him to the living room, wanting to play with him after they changed their school uniforms but their mom told them that she wanted to talk to their dad in the garden and they should finish their homework first before spending time with their dad. "But mom, can you please give us snacks? You are so quiet in the car that I could not tell you that I'm starving!" said Isabella as she keeps on observing her mother's sad face. "Of course, dear! Please go to the bath
Ella called the next day to inquire about his injuries and calmly told him that he is in his apartment and taking a rest. "You don't have to worry, Ella, the doctor said I'm okay. How about you? Did you sleep well? Is the baby awake now? I wished I could come to your mansion today but I could not, my whole body is aching a little..." the attorney said to her. "I could come and visit you, I will bring our son with me if you want. What do you think, darling? If you don't want to see me, it's okay, I will just call you every hour to check on you." "You can come and cook for me, Ella! Today may be the last day that we could be together, after that, I could not promise that I could even visit my son in your mansion..." there was sadness in his voice which was felt by his mistress but she tried to ignore it. "I will come now, darling! I will take care of you as much as I want
Ella was awakened by the cries of her son the following morning. She hurriedly took him from the crib and quickly breastfed him. His tears were all over his face and his mother wiped them away. "I'm so sorry dear, mom slept well and forgot that she has a baby to feed..." After sucking milk from his mother, the infant smiled at her which made his mother very ecstatic and happy. She placed him on his crib and put a pacifier on his little mouth. She was about to go to the bathroom when she heard her phone ring and saw that Imman tried to call her twenty times last night. The person who is calling her is the lawyer. She immediately answered her phone and was asked by the attorney why she did not talk to him yesterday evening. "I'm sorry, darling, I slept early! Maybe because I got so tired yesterday, do not worry about me, okay?" she replied while looking at her infant who was playing by himself. "I will come tonight, Cassandra
