His Secret Child (English) HSC: Chapter 23
This was her job, and she shouldn't refuse it. She couldn't keep hiding; they were both in the same industry, so it wasn't unlikely that their paths would cross. She wasn't known to them; she was just needed for the event and also needed it for her business. “You're right, Ja, but what I'm thinking is when Trish sees me. It's impossible for her not to recognize me or at least sense something. My friend has a strong radar when it comes to me. And besides... How am I going to face her after what I did? I left without a word, I didn't even tell her where I was going. I'm scared that she's already so mad with me. I didn't even appreciate what she did to help me before.” She said sadly. She wasn't yet ready to face her friend. For her, what she did was a huge mistake. “Don't think like that, Trish won't hold a grudge against you. Maybe she'll be upset for a while, but mad? Impossible. And you only left without telling her because we heard that she's already very close with he

While Travis… He didn't know what he was feeling when he saw Alice Mendez. His heart was beating fast, and he couldn't figure out why. As soon as the young woman entered, their eyes met. He couldn't take his eyes off her, as if someone were telling him to look at her and remove the mask on her face. He just shook his head and composed himself. “Hello, Ms. Alice Mendez. Thank you for accepting our offer. We're happy to be able to work with someone like you,” Emily, Trish's team leader, said. Alice smiled. “I'm also happy to work with you and be a part of your event. Anyway, what should I prioritize? Designing gowns or modelling jewelry?” Alice didn't beat around the bush. She wanted to finish the meeting and leave her ex's company. She read the folder containing Dela Cerna Industry's offer to her yesterday. She found out that the models would be wearing gowns, and hers should be unique and suitable for the jewelry line. Not only that, there were also ba

After a while, the door suddenly opened. We turned our heads, and I was shocked to see Travis enter. He was wearing the same color as I was—even his mask was a copy of mine! Our eyes met as he walked toward me. “Ms. Alice,” he said with a smile. “Mr. Dela Cerna! I didn't expect that you would be my partner in this shoot. I wasn't informed,” I said with a slight laugh. “I'm sorry, Ms. Alice. Is it okay with you that I'm your partner?” he asked. `What can I do if I say that I don't want you as my partner? Tss.` I thought to myself as I smiled at him. “Of course, it's my pleasure to have the CEO of Dela Cerna Industry as my partner in this shoot,” I replied, and he nodded in agreement. Just as he was about to speak, the photographer called us over. “Alright! Mr. Dela Cerna, Ms. Alice, come to the front,” the photographer instructed. I stood up, and Travis quickly moved to support me toward the front. When his hand touched my arm and waist, I

I smiled at Trish uncomfortably. “What are you talking about, Miss Trisha?” I was taken aback when my best friend grinned and rolled their eyes at me. Wow! My best friend has an attitude ha? “I've been watching you while you were talking to my brother earlier, and it seems like you have a good conversation that only the two of you understand? Sorry to say this to you, Miss Alice. I know you're our model, and you can be a big help to our event. But please, stay away from my brother. I don't want him getting close to other women.” What is she talking about? And why is she acting like this towards her brother? Is she trying to protect Travis? Why? Are they really that close? Wow, So many things have changed huh. “Don't worry, Miss Trish, I'm just here for work. And as for what you saw earlier, my conversation with your brother was about the poses that the photographer was asking us to do. That's all.” She let out a sigh. “Good. It's better that we c

“What did you say, Trish?” Travis said it coldly. I looked at his hand, now clenched into a fist. I was extremely nervous because of Jacob's foolishness. Why did he have to show up here? Now everything's been brought up. “B-brother let me explain, okay?” Trish said nervously. “Explain? You f*cking knew it! Where is my wife!?” Travis' words stopped me in my tracks. His wife? I looked at them, confused. “Brother, please calm down, okay?! I'll explain everything, but not here! Can't you see there are so many people?! Let's go to your office.” Trish was about to walk away when her brother spoke again. “No. We'll talk here, we're not going to my office! Explain now!” He shouted angrily, and all the models and employees were looking at us. Oh my god! “Bro, before we talk, can you ask your models and staff to leave? This is private,” Jacob calmly said. Why wasn't he nervous? Why was he acting so normal? Travis looked at everyone in the room. “All of you! Ge

I smiled bitterly. “No, there's nothing left to fix. I want a divorce. Enough of this madness, Travis. I'm happy with the life I have now.” "Bes, please don't do this. My brother has changed. For the past five years, he has searched for you to make up for his mistakes. He did everything. Please, talk to him properly,” Trish pleaded, still in tears and looking like she knew a lot. But I shook my head. “It's too late for the change you're talking about, Trish, because there is no Aaliyah Eunice anymore. I am now Alice Mendez.” I said it firmly. “Please, Aaliyah, let's talk. I know you're very mad at me because of what I did to you. I'm willing to pay for it all as long as we're okay,” Travis said. “For what, Travis? Please, enough. I'm tired. I'm going home,” I said. I turned around because the pain I felt was too much. The revelation is too much, and I wasn't ready for it. I need to move away again with Trishana, they will cause trouble for us again. My

After Alice left, Travis faced Jacob and Trish seriously. “Let's go to my office. I need to know everything,” Travis said, and the two nodded. Travis walked out and the two followed him. Trish was nervous. She knew her friend and brother were angry with her. She still couldn't believe that her best friend was now a famous model and designer in the country. She had fulfilled her dreams. They arrived at her brother's office. He locked the door and sat on the long sofa, while the two sat on the other sofa. “Now, tell me everything,” he said immediately. “I'm so sorry, brother, for hiding Eunice from you. She was experiencing so much pain because of you back then. I can't blame myself for what I did. Then, something happened between the two of you. You were extremely drunk that night, that's why you didn't remember what happened between you and Bes. Eunice didn't have any other relationships, so don't think that way. Because at that time, she understood eve

In the next day.. “Mommy? Where is Uncle Jacob? Why didn't he come home?” Eunice turned to her daughter when she suddenly spoke. She had just finished stacking the washed dishes. Her daughter looked up at her sadly. She took a deep breath before kneeling down to be at eye level with her daughter. She gently held her soft cheek before speaking. “Uncle Jacob is busy. He didn't come home last night because he had a lot to do, but don't worry, he'll come home later.” She said with a smile to her daughter. Trishanna face brightened up at her words. “Yey! I thought he had already went back to Cebu. He promised me that we would play and watch movies.” “Oh, your Uncle Jacob promised that, so he'll do it. Anyway, go to your nanny now. We have visitors later. I'll introduce you to them.” She said affectionately to her daughter. Trishanna furrowed her brow a bit but couldn't help but smile at what she did. She looked even cuter now. “We have visit

Travis “What's bothering me, Hubby, is who he is. Why was he looking at me? Or let's say, at the house? It's suspicious because people don't just enter this place without living here.” As I listened to my wife, I could hear the fear in her voice as she recounted the story. I turned my gaze back to the gate outside. She's right, you don't just enter this subdivision; security is tight. It is suspicious. Or maybe he has strong connections, so he got in easily. When money is involved, people change. They follow orders easily. I wondered if the person Aaliyah saw and the one who sent me the dead bird were the same. Tsk. It's not impossible... this has started, and he targeted my wife first. “Does Trish know this?”I asked before gently pulling her closer to put my arm around her shoulders. I noticed her rubbing her arm, a sign that she was uncomfortable. “Yes, I told her. I couldn't settle down that night; I couldn't sleep well because of the fear, Hubby. I wanted to tell yo

Travis What the heck is this? Who sent me this kind of sh*t?! My forehead furrowed as I saw a piece of paper inside the box. Slowly, I came over and took it. Something was written, so I read it. 'Congratulations on the merger of Dela Cerna Corp and TDC clothing line, as well as the fashion show. You look very happy and contented, Dela Cerna, but bad news – gradually, your happy days will end soon. Good luck! Ps: I hope you like my little gift to you, Dela Cerna. See you soon...' D*mn it! Who is this? I clenched my fist with the paper. Then I threw it back in the box. Angrily, I went to my swivel chair and faced the intercom to call my secretary. “Santos, come here, now!” I slammed my hand on the intercom, then leaned back on my swivel chair, massaging my temples. The door opened. “Yes, sir? What do you need--Holy sh*t!” Santos paused, unable to believe what he saw – a dead bird on the floor. He looked at me with concern before fully entering. “Lock the door,”

Aaliyah I was busy designing Mr. Tan's tuxedo when the door opened. I didn't bother to look up. “Mam Aaliyah?” It's Jam, my secretary; she was the one who entered. “Yes? Do you need something, Jam?” I answer without looking at her. My attention was still focused on what I'm doing. “This is the copy of the contract signed by the models that you requested,” she politely said. I nod and gesture for her to just place them on the side of my table. She quietly follows my instruction. “Thank you, Jam,” I express my gratitude after she's done. “Welcome, Mam. Do you need anything else? Would you like coffee or juice?” she asks again. “No, not for now. I'll ask for juice later when I finish what I'm working on. You can go out; I'll call you when I send for the juice. Thank you,” I reply, my gaze still on the sketch pad. “Okay, Mam. I'll leave now,” she nods and exits. Suddenly, I remember something I need to ask Jam. When I look up, she's near the door, so I quickly

I was surprised when all the models greeted me with applause backstage. They were happily clapping. “You were amazing, Tita Aaliyah!” “We watched you on the screen here; you were absolutely fantastic.” “Congrats, Mom! You were still amazing!” “You're truly legendary, Mam Aaliyah!” “You looked so sexy walking earlier, Mam Aaliyah. Your presence was captivating.” “You're really different on stage, Mam Aaliyah. You carried yourself so well.” “Yes, especially when Mam Aaliyah winked at Sir Travis!” “Yeah, it was so romantic! You and Sir are a perfect match!” I suddenly felt embarrassed by the comments from the adult models. Gosh, they saw that. But it's heartwarming that they're all here to congratulate me. They really waited for me to finish. “Thank you, thank you! You really surprised me. You were all amazing earlier. Remember what I said, okay? Don't rush back to the backstage immediately after our final walk. I have an announcement, okay?” They

It still feels different when someone admits to you that they idolize you. I didn't expect it to be like this. And it's evident from her that she idolizes me because she even knew about my past role as Alice Mendez. It seems like she noticed and read my thoughts. She chuckled modestly while holding one of my hands. “It may not be obvious, but I'm your fan, Miss Aaliyah. I'm glad to finally see you. I tried several times to meet you, but it never matched my schedule,” she explained with a smile that made her even more beautiful, if I'm not mistaken. Trishana mentioned to me that Vivien is one of her admired models. She'll surely be delighted when she finds out she's here. “She's telling the truth, Mrs. Dela Cerna. She really insisted on coming with me. We almost had a disagreement at first because I didn't want to bring her,” Mr. Montenegro said with a smile before turning to his wife. “If you didn't bring me today, I would have ignored you for a week, and you wouldn't be

Before we could reach our husband, there were many visitors who blocked our way to greet us, exchange pleasantries, and take pictures. Trisha was even subtly pinching my arm, eager to approach her husband. But what could we do? We couldn't just leave the guests. That's why we went outside to help Travis talk to the guests. However, we weren't able to join them.When a waiter passed by, she even got wine, taking two and giving me one. Tsk, she forgot that I wasn't going to drink even if it's just a little. I'm going to walk on the stage later. But it's okay, I won't finish it. I might enjoy it later.If the husband hadn't called the woman we were talking to, she wouldn't have left. “Finally, I thought we wouldn't be able to leave. Come on! Walk faster so we can get to our husbands.” She pulled me, disregarding our appearance and posture. We were getting close when Travis noticed me. His serious face earlier slowly brightened when he saw me. A beautiful smile appeared on his

AaliyahEvent Day As early as noon, Trish and I were already at the company to check the auditorium if everything was in order and nothing was missed. Trish was assigned to check everything, including the catering. Travis trusted her to make sure everything was okay. Meanwhile, I was busy with the dresses that the models were going to wear. The makeup artists arrived early and set up their equipment. They arranged their makeup on the vanity mirrors in the dressing room. The models should start getting ready at exactly three o'clock.. We told them to come early and not be late. Everyone was busy with their assigned tasks. I was just finishing up my work, So that when it's my turn to get make up, everything would be settled and there would be no more problems. At 2 pm, other models started to arrive, including my daughter who was super excited.“Sweetie, you're early. Where are your friends? Aren't they with you?” I asked her sweetly as she moved away from my embrace.

Trish and I continued to fix the dresses. We're bringing them down to the first floor, where the models' dressing room will be. Good thing my headache cooperated and went away before noon. Now I'm observing the people setting up the Auditorium. They're arranging the tables, chairs, and lights. I was in that state when I felt hands creeping around my waist. I smiled because just from the scent alone, I already knew who it was - my husband. No one else would give me a back hug like that. “How are you feeling, Wife? I bumped into Trisha, she told me you had a headache earlier. Are you okay now?” He asked affectionately but with a hint of concern. I was surprised by what he said. Trish can be really talkative sometimes. She even told her brother. But that's just how she is. When it comes to serious matters, I can always count on my friend. “I'm okay now, Hubby. I already took some medicine,” I replied while still watching the people fixing the lights. “Are you sure? Why
His Secret Child (English) TBHL: Chapter 20
Aaliyah I was sitting on my swivel chair with my eyes closed, feeling sleepy and having a headache because I didn't sleep well. I'm disturbed by the person I saw in front of our house last night. I can't get it out of my mind. It's really scary that someone was watching us. But it's strange because the subdivision has strict management and only well-known people live there. Prominent individuals. The person standing in front of the house was wearing a jacket and a hat, so I couldn't tell if it was a man or a woman. And the question is, what is he/she doing at this time of night in front of our house, wearing that kind of outfit? Even though I didn't see his/her face, I'm sure he/she was looking at me, at our room with Travis. Because of what happened, I couldn't sleep well and now I have a headache when I have so many things to do. I went to work early today because I still have to prepare the clothes that the models will wear tomorrow. We're getting ready for four outfit chan
