His Secret Child (English) TBHL: Chapter 8
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

As I got off in front of the Dela Cerna Corp building. I looked around searching for a store where I could buy something to drink or eat sweets. I have my period today, and whenever I have it, I look for something sweet to eat to ease the pain I feel. That's my comfort food. My gaze stopped at a cafe that sold pastries, and I smiled as I headed there. I planned to buy many things to last until the afternoon. I didn't intend to eat heavy meals today because I wasn't in the mood for it. It's a good thing that I have my period now, so I enjoyed my time with my family last night. I entered the cafe, and I smiled at the aroma of coffee that filled the air. I suddenly felt hungry! I quickly went to the cashier and ordered two coffees, one of which I would give to Travis. Then I bought a whole chocolate mousse and some brownies to last me until later. I walked back to the DC building holding the foods I bought, and I had a wide smile on my face. I even greeted the guard as I enter

Saturday I woke up early to prepare breakfast and pack our lunch. I decided to cook so we could all have lunch together at Travis's office. Today is the start of the practice and photoshoot. I need to be there to check on all the models and also to assist Trishana's friends, including Tracy. Before leaving our room, I kissed Travis on the forehead. As I descended the stairs, I thought about having a heavy meal today because it's going to be a tiring morning for us. For breakfast, I cooked fried rice, scrambled eggs, ham, and hotdogs. And for lunch, I prepared caldereta and fried chicken for the kids. I also cooked enough for Trish to join us for lunch. After an hour and a half, I finished cooking, just in time for Travis and Trishana to wake up. I greeted Trishana with a smile as she approached me, still rubbing her eyes. She was excited since last night because it's her first time to have a photoshoot with her friends. “Good morning sweety, how's your sleep?” I asked.

He just left Trishana's things with me. He only took my things and the food. My husband is really a gentleman. “Everyone listened! Let's go to the dressing room on the 5th floor. Each door on the 5th floor is labeled Kids, Teens, and Adults. Go to the one where you are assigned. Your makeup artists are waiting inside the dressing room to prepare your dress. We have a photoshoot, okay? We informed you, right? The photoshoot you will be doing is for the front magazine of Dela Cerna Corp. And of course, for advertisement. Yes, we added that for your portfolio and experience. Do your best! Who knows, if our judge, Mrs. Aaliyah Eunice Dela Cerna, likes your performance, you might become an exclusive model for Dela Cerna Corp. That's a good opportunity, right? So do your best and show your skills!” Trisha's long and enthusiastic speech was interrupted by the mention of my full name. This girl really loves to play tricks. But it's true that if they show a good performance, they cou

I stood up to face the four children who also seemed worried based on their expressions. I smiled before looking at each of them. “She's okay, don't worry. You heard her say that her arm just hit the door. Anyway, go to your make-up artists so they can fix you up. I'll take care of Tracy's bruise first. Alright?” “Okay, Mom.” “Yes, Auntie.” “Okay, Auntie.” They all replied at the same time. I accompanied them to their make-up artists for a while before returning to Tracy who was still standing in her position. “Tracy, sit down for a moment. While we wait for the ice pack for your bruise,” I said in a gentle voice to the child. She nodded and followed what I said. Even though I wanted to ask her, I couldn't do it. She might get even more scared. After a while, Trisha arrived and silently handed me the ice pack. “Tracy, let's put ice on your bruise, okay?” She nodded and quietly lifted the sleeve of her shirt, allowing me to put the ice on her arm.

Travis nodded seriously before turning back to me. “Isn't she Mayell's child? Sorry, Wife, she really looks like Mayell. I thought she was her child because they look so alike.” He said nervously. I smiled understandingly. “She's not Mayell's child, Hubby. It's just a coincidence that they look alike. Even Trish and I were surprised when we saw the child because she really resembles Mayell, but we found out later that we were mistaken. It just so happens that they look alike.” I said gently. “I see.” he said. He didn't say anything else after that. The shoot started just then. Travis and I turned our attention to the models, smiling as we watched our child looking so beautiful and effortlessly following the photographer's instructions. I glanced at Tracy, whose face looked bright and who easily understood what the photographer was saying. Her makeup artist was also skilled because her bruises were not noticeable. So far, the kids were doing great in the shoot. I d

TRISHA's point of view As we walked towards the other room, I discreetly looked at Tracy, who was smiling while talking to Chantal. If you didn't know, you wouldn't think she was suffering from any physical pain. I am amazed by this child, how she can handle such treatment like this. She's very brave. Upon entering the room, we saw the photographer arranging his equipment, along with his assistants. On the other side, Bestie and my brother were there. I raised my eyebrow when I noticed who they were talking to, especially my brother. He was talking to Donica, who was now blatantly trying to flirt with my brother. Doesn't Bestie notice what this woman is doing? Tsk. I looked at my friend, and she was just sneaking glances at her phone. She doesn't seem to notice what Donica is up to.Confirmed This woman is flirtatious and even trying to make advances towards my brother. She's like a version 2.0 of Mayell. Their attention was only diverted when the kids approa

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

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
