Araceli POVI put down my bag and sat down in the chair. "You are..."He snapped back instantly. "Oh, Ms. Chancey, I'm the director of this project, and my name is Korbin Capell. Please just call me Korbin.""Nice to meet you, Korbin."I nodded and smiled.He continued, "Ms. Chancey, I can't believe you started a computer company at such a young age. It's my dream, too."
Araceli POV"Belinda, we all think you're right."Belinda?I seemed to have a slight memory of this name.At that moment, a cold laugh from a woman came. "Fuck you, Araceli, little bitch. See how I will kick you out."This should be Belinda.She said loudly, "Araceli will be thrown out soon. I promise."
Araceli POVI worked at Eclipse Group for an afternoon. After work, I went to Brizela Daycare to pick up Krish and Valeria."Ms. Chancey, can I have word with you?"Mayra pulled me aside and said with a smile, "We had a painting class today. The painting teacher wants to take Valeria as a student. Here is her card. If you are thinking about it, you can call her."I had received many of these cards and had heard from others that Valeria was artistically gifted, but her eyes...

Raphael POVMelanie stared at me, her eyes grim. I laughed inwardly at myself for allowing such a woman to be the mother of my two so lovely children.After a while, she said, "Raphael, something happened to Essel, and I was worried and scared... That's why I yelled at you... I'm sorry..."Melany knew very well how to show weakness, and her watery eyes were flooded with crystal tears."Let's go see Essel first, okay?"S
Raphael POV "Daddy, Ms. Chancey..." A frail voice suddenly sounded in the ward. Araceli turned her head to look at Essel with great joy. "Essel, you're finally awake. How do you feel? Does it hurt?" "I'm okay..." Essel blinked her eyes and suddenly giggled. "I remember in the drama, if a man and a woman keep looking at each other, it means they both like each other. Ms. Chancey, do you like Daddy? Daddy, if you like Ms. Chancey too, can you marry Ms. Chancey?" Araceli obviously froze for two seconds.
