His Secret Child (English) TBHL: Chapter 2 (Book 2)
The next day.. Aaliyah's POV I woke up because of my phone's alarm. I felt around in my side table for my phone with my eyes closed to turn off the alarm. My eyes were still blurry as I turned off the phone, then put it back on the table before turning to the other side of the bed. I furrowed my brows when I realized that Travis wasn't beside me anymore. I looked at the clock hanging on the wall in front of me to make sure of the time; it was only six twenty-two in the morning. It's too early; where is Travis? I got up and sat on the bed, listening for any sound of running water in the bathroom, but there was none. He's supposed to wake up at seven o'clock. I turned to the door, and it opened, revealing the man I was looking for with a beautiful smile on his face. “Good morning, breakfast in bed, my beautiful wife,” he said, holding a tray in his hand and coming closer to me. Wait, he woke up early to cook breakfast for me? He placed the tray on the side

I arrived at the office exactly at nine thirty. I went straight to Travis' office, but he wasn't there yet. It turned out that he was still in a meeting. I decided to look for Trish instead, to tell her that we only needed two more kids for the model search. I found her in her department, and it seemed like they were busy looking for models. When they noticed me, they all politely greeted me before returning to their work. Trish approached me with a smile and gave me a kiss on the cheek before speaking. “Hey, what brought you here? Aren't you supposed to be in your office?” “Yeah, but I came here to ask if you've found or chosen any kids for the model search yet.” “Oh, about that, Bes, we just started looking for them now. That's what my team is working on right now. Why?” I smiled at her response. “You only need two more for the kids' section. To speed things up, look for those with portfolios.” Her face brightened up at the news. “Really? Just

While on the road, I received a text message from Travis. There was traffic, so I was able to read his message. "I love you, wife. Be careful when driving, okay? Text me when you're at the mansion." I smiled and shook my head; we had just been separated for less than fifteen minutes, but he had already sent me a message. I didn't bother to reply since I was already driving and the car in front of me moved. I'll just reply when I get to the mansion. The trip was quick; thankfully, I passed through the traffic earlier. As soon as I got out of the car, I saw my eldest daughter standing outside the main door. Trishana smiled at me; she raised her hand and waved, holding something in her hand. I smiled when I realized what it was: her friends' portfolios. I walked toward her. “Mommy!” She called out excitedly and hugged me briefly before stepping back. “My baby looks happy. Do you have good news for us?” I asked her, smiling. She nodded, as she raised the two portfolio

I took big steps as I approached them because I didn't like the way Mr. Chua was talking to my friend. this old man! He really doesn't have any respect; he acts as if he's the boss. Actually, Trish speaks calmly, but Mr. Chua doesn't; he raises his voice when he responds. I raised an eyebrow as I approached them. “Excuse me, what's going on here? What are you all doing outside my husband's office?” I looked at them seriously when I got close to them. They turned their attention to me. Trisha suddenly approached me, and the other staff straightened up and swallowed when they saw me. Even Mr. Chua was slightly surprised to see me here. Once I get serious, they know I'm angry or in a bad mood. This is how I behave in this kind of scenario. Especially when I saw how Mr. Chua was shouting at my friend. Doesn't he know Trish? She's one who has a large share in the company. Her share even increased when she married Jacob, who also has a large share in the company. But, of cour

This is the first time I'm getting interfered with Trisha's team. It's also the first time I'll allow someone who is not class A and professional to join the fashion show. I want to see their ability, and I don't think I'll regret it. “Well, they want to experience the fashion show. I didn't want to show their portfolio earlier because I knew they wouldn't pass. I just want to grant their request, Mrs. Dela Cerna. They have been asking me for a long time to join the shoot or fashion show with our company, especially Tracy. Sorry if I was rude. My apologies,” Mr. Chua said in a long explanation while slightly bowing. Why do I feel like his apology is insincere? Tsk, it seems half-hearted. But his reason is okay for me. He just wants to grant their request. Mr. Chua's mistake was that he made a decision without talking to us. “Next time, Mr. Chua, you can talk to us properly about this kind of thing, instead of making decisions right away. That's why we don't understand each

It felt like I was hit by a bomb because of Trish's words. I immediately stood up from my seat and approached her to look at Tracy's pictures again. I stared at them intently and noticed the resemblance between the two of them, causing me to cup my lips in shock. Trish and I looked at each other, and I saw the confusion and fear in her innocent face. I, on the other hand, felt like my heart was pounding like chased by a dog. No... I must be wrong about this... us... it couldn't be, “Oh my God, what if Mayell was already pregnant with Kuya's child when she was seeing other guys?” Trish said with worry. I was still unable to answer. I felt like a statue in my seat. That could be a possibility. Why didn't I think of that? Although, earlier, I only noticed the resemblance between Mayell and Tracy, and not Travis and the child. I was too preoccupied with what happened earlier. “But no, it's impossible, we're wrong. We're overthinking things. Look, maybe Mayell shoul

Trish and I cannot be at peace if we do not know the truth, especially me, I cannot sit still. When I arrived at their department, everyone was busy and about to stand up to greet me, but I quickly signaled them not to. I just asked where Trish was, and they said she was in her office. I smiled and thanked them before heading to my friend's office. When I entered, I found her facing her laptop, focused intently. She didn't even look at me, even though she knew I was here. “Hey,” I got her attention, but she still didn't look up. I noticed some food on the side of her desk, it seemed like she hadn't had lunch yet. “I've been waiting for you, why did it take so long? Come here. I was searching for information about Mayell, maybe there's an issue with her pregnancy back then,” she said seriously. What? That's what she's been busy with? I thought she was working on the models' lineup, but we're both unable to stay calm. I approached her and leaned in to see what she was d

“Someone? Who?” I asked in wonder. He grinned and pointed behind me, and I turned around. I was amazed to see my handsome husband with a sweet smile on his face, holding two large bowls. He set them down on the table nearby before approaching us. “Hubby, I thought you had a meeting? What are you doing here?” I asked as he came closer. Instead of answering right away, he kissed my forehead gently before speaking. “There was no meeting, I just said that earlier so you wouldn't have to come up to my office and, of course, to surprise you. I thought I would cook dinner for you this time. Every time I come home from work, you always cook for me. We are both tired, but you still choose to take care of us and cook. You deserve this, wife, because you are a good mother and wife.” I smiled at what he said, realizing he said something similar to me before when he cooked me breakfast. There was just something added to his speech. It's amusing how the man who used to not care f

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.
His Secret Child (English) TBHL: Chapter 21
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
