"MOM!" Callum greeted Tallulah full of excitement when he entered the house. It was past eight in the evening but he still waited for her because he knew she was coming home. She greeted him with a tight hug full of excitement and love."I miss you so much, Callum!" She closed her eyes to feel her son's hug. "How are you? Didn't you be stubborn to your Grandpa and Grandma?" She asked after hugging him.He nodded kindly. "I'm being kind to them, mom," he replied confidently.She smiled. She gently ruffled his hair. "My Callum is very good, he really looks like a grown man.”He snorts. "Mom, I'm still young, I still want to play," he said. “I don't want to be a grown man yet because I hear from you and I see how difficult it is to be an adult. I want to enjoy my childhood," he said happily.She frowned. At his young age, he has already thought about those things.Kendric came up behind her. He picked her up at the Lopez mansion.He laughed and gently ruffled the boy's hair. "Being an ad
"IT'S GAEL. I know Gael is the man you take care of in that mansion."Tallulah was stunned by what Kendric said. How did he know about that? Her mouth fell open. Her chest felt heavy because of the fact that she had lied to Kendric. She cheated on him and wasn't honest and she wasn't going to deny that to him."How—"He took the cellphone from his pocket and showed her something. "I saw his picture," he said.She was surprised to see the picture taken in the living room of the mansion. She forgot that Gael had pictures displayed there. "I waited for you to tell me about your work, Talu. I waited because I trusted you b-but...but you tried to hide the truth from me and I couldn't help but think," he said, full of resentment and pain.She bowed down with tears in her eyes. She knew what she did was wrong but she had no other choice because she knew Kendric would stop her if she told him about that."K-Kendric, I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!" Shelooked up. "I-I don't intend to hurt you. I have
Tallulah wasn't immediately moved by Kendric's questions to her. She feels mixed emotions. She is thrilled with the effort he made for his proposal even though he knows she lied to him.Is she ready to accept his proposal to be his wife and be with him for the rest of her life? Is this the right time?She closed her mouth and swallowed. She looked at Kendric who was still kneeling in front of her holding a box with a ring in it. Many people are whispering in her surroundings and she doesn't know why she has to think of Gael in her decision."Yes! Yes!" shouted the teachers and parents who were there. There is a trace of excitement on their faces. Who wouldn't be thrilled by what Kendric did? Apart from this handsome man, his love can also be seen through his actions."Talu, I'm happy every day that I'm with you, that you're here by my side and I don't see myself feeling that with another woman. I don't want to get married if it's not you," he said sweetly. "I hope you love me enough t
"TALI," she heard her mother call her as she sat quietly in the living room of the house. It's late at night but she still can't sleep because everything Kendric's mother says keeps messing with her mind. She turned to Caroline and smiled. "Why are you still awake?" She bent down and gently caressed her folded arm. "I'm not sleepy yet, Mom," she reasoned.She came to her and sat next to her. She sighed. "Is it because of Kendric's family? You can't hide your feelings from me, because what you feel is the same for me. Everything changed not only in the life we have, but also in the someone who was our friend before," Caroline sadly confessed.She let out a breath and looked at her sadly. "Mom, is everything that I, our family is going through because of the mistake I made before?" Her eyes watered and she tilted her head slightly. "I'm sorry, Mom! If all this is my karma, if I'm the reason, I hope I'm the only one who is suffering now." She couldn't stop the tears from falling.Carol
"HI, Gael," Tallulah Lopez shyly greeted the young man Gael Ramirez, a very handsome man that all the women she knew were attracted to him because of his very muscular body and his thick eyebrows so how could she not like him too?Gael slowly faced her but instead of a smile leaving his handsome face, he just raised his eyebrows and seemed to be disappointed to see her.He turned around as if looking for someone but he didn't see what he's looking for because she left Brielle and Kendric who were there at the far table from where they were. She did that on purpose because she thought this was the right time to confess to Gael and express her feelings for him. They are currently at Brielle's party because it's her 18th birthday. There were many people around and loud music was heard."Can we talk, Gael?" She asked, almost stammering, the smile never disappearing from his lips.He slightly tilted his head and showed her his lack of interest in her. "No," he answered without emotion."B-
"HUH? Are you crazy, Tali? Are you that desperate for Gael to do what you're planning?" Brielle's shocked reaction when Tallulah said that she was ready to give herself to Gael just to get him.She bowed. She didn't know if she was doing the right thing but she couldn't think of any other way to keep him from leaving. "But he's leaving, Brielle? He will leave me! How will I be when he disappears? I don't know how I'll be when he's completely gone," she said crying again because she was just thinking that Gael would leave her, she felt she would go crazy.Brielle touched her forehead. It's a good thing they were in the girl's room because if Kendric had heard what she said, he might get mad at her."My God, Tali! You're out of your mind and I won't be surprised if one day Gael suddenly disappears because you kidnap him," she said, shaking her head. "Can you please think before you decide, Tali because you don't know what can happen. He hates you!""I don't care if he hates me, Brielle
TALLULAH moved gently from her bed. She even winced when she felt the pain between her thighs. She also directly felt the cold air on her body.When she opened her eyes, the bright surroundings greeted her, it was a sign that the sun was high. She was just as surprised when she noticed that she was naked and she had leaned on a firm arm while a muscular arm was hugging her.She froze as she remembered what she had done last night. She slapped her forehead and bit her bottom lip. She suddenly realized what she had done. She slowly faced Gael and revealed his handsome face to her even though he was asleep. She felt the warmth of his body hugging her."What did you do, Tali?" She asked herself confusedly. How could she face Gael when she had given up her virginity just to get him?She moved slowly. She still has a chance to escape the shame she did. The alcohol had hit Gael hard last night and if he woke up without her, he wouldn't think anything had happened to them.She slowly removed
"WHETHER you like it or not, Gael, you should take your responsibility to my daughter," Gilberto said gently but firmly to Gael while facing him and Tallulah's family."Gilberto is right, Gael, you are not a child anymore, so you know the responsibility and the consequence of your actions. You're matured enough to understand everything," her mother, Caroline, seconded."But Uncle, I didn't do anything. I don't know what happened last night but I know I didn't do anything to her and I won't do anything to your daughter. Even if she undresses in front of me, I won't do anything," Gael returned as his palms intertwined. There is a trace of frustration on his face. "One more thing, I don't love your daughter, I treat her like a sister," he added.The couple looked at each other as Tallulah kept her head down and played with her own hands. She was afraid that her parents might not be able to do anything and Gael would leave her completely."I-I wasn't drunk that night Gael so I know someth

"MOM!" Callum greeted Tallulah full of excitement when he entered the house. It was past eight in the evening but he still waited for her because he knew she was coming home.

Tallulah went down the living room silently while Gael rested in his room. Even though she wanted to hit him for his insolence, she couldn't because he was still her boss."Hello Jo, Mary," she greeted the two helpers in the kitchen. The other two maids were busy cleaning outside.They smile. "If you're here to help us, you don't have to do it, we can handle it," Jo said to her immediately.She scratched her forehead because they seemed to have guessed what she would do. "By the way, isn't your son who came yesterday?" Mary was curious about the boy.Her face became serious and she slowly nodded. "Oh yes.""Your husband is handsome, isn't he," said Jo, seeming to be thrilled.She smiled hesitantly. "Oh no! Kendric is not my husband yet, he is just my boyfriend," she explained."Is that so? But you know, your son is very cute. I remember Sir Gael from when he was young because he used to look like that, so cute. Your son does look like Sir Gael," said Mary who witnessed Gael's growth
"W-WHAT are you doing here?" Tallulah asked nervously as she reached the living room and he saw Kendric and Callum there. Instead of excitement, her face was filled with worry and nervousness. What if Kendric sees Gael? He can't know that Gael is the one she's taking care of. She didn't want him to get angry.Kendric smiled but there seemed to be something strange there. He bends slightly. "I'm sorry, Talu, if I didn't say we were going here. Your son begged me to come and I can't help myself to give what he wants," he answered. She could see in his eyes the strange emotion that he was trying to hide.She tilted her head and bowed slightly. She bit her lower lip. She felt like her heart was going to jump out of her chest because of her heartbeat.She approached them. "N-no, you don't need to be sorry, Kendric. It's good that you brought Callum here because I miss him already." She approached her son and hugged him. She closed her eyes. She felt her heart filled with longing. She longe
"I MISS you, Son!" Tallulah said with a smile as she talked to her son Callum on the cellphone through a video call while she was on the terrace of the mansion. She has been away for less than a day but she already misses her son so much. Because she is not used to being far from her son."Mom, when are you coming home? Uncle Kendric said, you won't be home tomorrow," Callum said sadly.She smiled with a hint of sadness. "I'm sorry, Son, but Mom won't be able to come home tomorrow because of work, but let me, when I get home, I'll make it up to you, is that ok? Let's eat outside with your uncle Kendric," she said to at least comfort the child.Callum smiled. "Really, Mom? I'll remember what you said," he said happily.She couldn't help but feel sad. She bowed and avoided the camera so that Callum could not see the sadness in her eyes. How long will they be happy? What if Gael finds out about their son and because of his anger he takes Callum from her? She will not agree. She will figh
Tallulah sighed after she arranged the things in the room where she would stay while there at the Lopez mansion. Gael's mother was in a business meeting and she begged her to stay there while she's not home. She wanted to say no because she wasn't used to being away from Callum but she didn't do anything because she also knew that Gael needed her.She snorted and frowned. She was wondering about Gael's strange behavior towards her. Because she didn't hear him yelling at her all day and he let her help him whenever he needed something."Couldn't it be that Gael tripped and fell on his head so he realized how to be kind?" She asked in surprise. "He was strange today." She just blew air because she couldn't get an answer from herself. Maybe that's ok instead of them fighting all the time, but instead of making her happy, she's more nervous."This would be the most exciting part and you should prepare yourself, Tallulah."She froze when she remembered what Gael had said to her earlier as
Gael was sitting silently on the sofa in his room. He had been quiet for a while because of many things that were bothering him. Even though he tried to forget what happened to him and Tallulah in the bathroom, he couldn't get it out of his mind. Many memories from the past came back with anger and hatred in his heart. There was a new feeling that he didn't know where it came from."Are you sure about what you want to do, Sir Gael?"He flinched when he heard Hiro's voice that he knew was right in front of him. Within days of his return to the Philippines, he tried to memorize the place he was in so that he could track every step he took. In seven years of losing his sight, he learned how to adapt himself to where he was because he didn't want to rely on the people around him because he didn't know who to trust.He blinked. A smile appeared on his lips. "This is what she deserves, Hiro. I will make her experience the anger and the hardship that I went through for seven years," he said
