BACK TO THE PRESENT.
"Taxi! Taxi!"
Samantha was panting as she made her way to the driveway of the Wright Diamond Corporation. As soon as a taxi came forward, she hailed it and rode, asking the driver to go to the children's school.
The entire time while she was in the backseat of the car, Samantha was teary-eyed thinking about the horrible mistake that lead to her father abandoning her.
Her lips trembled, and she wound up covering her mouth as she thought, 'So it was Ethan Wright? It was him.'
She realized how the resemblance between her son and Ethan was not a mere coincidence at all.
While her taxi was stuck in traffic, Samantha had many questions in her mind.
Why did father never found out about Ethan?
How did Ethan know?
Was he angry at her for leaving him a hundred-dollar bill?
How long did Ethan know?
Was that the reason why he employed her? Was he out for revenge?
But why di
At MEO Braeton Medical Clinic."Open your mouth, Kenzie," instructed Samantha while standing behind the laboratory representative who was to swab on the twin's inner cheeks."Ah." Kenzie opened her mouth and giggled as she was being swabbed.Only after she was done did Kenzie react by giggling, "That tickles." Turning to her brother, she urged, "Your turn, Kyle.""What are we doing, Mom?" Kyle asked while taking a seat. "What is this about?""Ummm." Samantha suddenly had no words to say. It was because she had long lied about their father that it was difficult to explain, having a DNA test."We are having a medical test, Kyle," Ethan interfered, seeing how Samantha was struggling to say the words. "We just need to check on some family history medical conditions."The earlier frown from Kyle disappeared, and he said, "Okay, Daddy. If you say so."Samantha was thoroughly relieved. It was thanks to Ethan's aid in addre
"Ethan, do... Do CEOs have the time to shop?" Samantha could not help but ask as soon as they arrived at the most exclusive mall in Braeton City.'He means well,' she thought, but she just could not get over the fact that he was willing to be out of his office to buy Kenzie and Kyle their childhood wishes.While Ethan was about to get out of the car with Samantha, he said, "Edgar will help us carry the bags, and you heard me call the mall's manager, right? They will assign me a shopping agent for us to easily find what we need. We won't take long.""You - you really did not have to do this," said Samantha."I - I don't know... I feel like... I owe them so much more," Ethan said. "So I just have to do this."Samantha saw the puzzled look on the driver's face, but it was not her place to claim Ethan to be the father of her kids. She just let him think whatever he wanted as they made their way to the lift from the parking area.
Serving a steamed grouper fish on the table, poured with oyster sauce and sesame oil, Ethan's expression turned soft, looking at his special dinner inside Samantha's home.It took him more than an hour to set-up Kenzie's dollhouse, even with the help of Kyle, who was pretty keen on identifying where the parts go to, despite being a boy with other interests.Samantha was unsure if Ethan was okay with the fish that she remarked while sitting next to him, "Mr. Wri - I mean, Ethan... You probably prefer Salmon, but I just don't have it right now. This is a grouper fish, but the red tomato kind so it's still good."Ethan Wright rarely smiled in his daily life, but he managed to pull through and looked up to Samantha's charming face. He said, "I also like this kind of fish."While he expressed words of acceptance, he sneered for a second before telling, "I - I just don't like soy.""Oh! Haha!" Diana, who was sitting across Ethan, could not he
I am very surprised at how... you are well accepting this," Samantha announced.Ethan let go of Samantha's hand and gazed out at the city lights. He said, "Don't get me wrong, I was taken aback, but you see... My parents raised me well. I have very family-oriented parents and grandparents.""In my father's home, he has taken in the entire household as part of his family - rather, he treats them like family. It's the same with my mother," Ethan resumed. "If my parents could accept strangers into their home and let me call them aunt and uncles - a brother even."He turned back to Samantha and explained, "The man who looks after the security of our mansion, I consider him my brother as we grew up together. He is the son of our old driver who passed away while working for my father.""What I am saying is, we make families out of strangers, how much more for our very own... flesh and blood. Moreover, the children are innocent and they are very inte
While preparing breakfast the following day, Samantha was in a daze.Her mind just could not get over the mere peck she shared with one, Ethan Wright. The same man who happened to be the father of her kids.Her beautiful face was glancing at the kitchen wall, utterly in deep thought.After Ethan brought them back to the condominium that Saturday night, he explained that he wanted them to be convincing. Hence, the sudden and unplanned kiss."Mommy! I don't eat burned eggs!" Scolded Kyle, seeing how his sunny side up was getting overcooked."Oh! Oh, my goodness!" Exclaimed Samantha as she took out both eggs in the pan and throwing them directly into the garbage.Samantha wound up cooking another set of eggs for her children."Thinking of... Someone?" Diana leaned over to tease, raising her.It made Samantha glare at her aunt and said, "No! No, not at all." After breaking two more eg
"Daddy!" Called Kenzie at the sight of her father. "I miss you!"Kyle rushed with his sister, immediately hugging Ethan by the waist. He looked up to Ethan and announced, "I'm glad you came, Daddy. Kenzie and I miss you."Ethan Wright walked in with his coat already off. He had the sleeves of his shirt folded up to his elbows and his hair was slightly disheveled.However, while Ethan's hair was not in perfect shape, Samantha thought, 'How can this man still look so good?'After opening the door at eleven in the evening, she could not help but stare at him. Without his coat, the shape of his well-molded torso became more evident.It was clear to Samantha how lean Ethan was.Hearing the children's care, Ethan leveled with Kyle, sitting on his leg. He brushed his fingers through the boy's hair and said, "Of course, I came. I promised, didn't I?"He turned to Kenzie, who was ready to embrace him and carried her in his arms. "A
"Do you think... Daddy loves Mommy too?" Samantha did not like using her kids for information, but her poor heart could not help it.Somehow, something inside of her wanted to know what Ethan thought about her."Yes, Mommy! He says you are pretty all the time!" Announced Kenzie."All - the - time?" Samantha asked with a frown, trying to recall whenever Ethan was around the kids."Yes, Mommy." Kenzie sat up and demonstrated with her hands, resting them on her face. "When Kenzie says I'm pretty like Mommy, Daddy says you are pretty."Kenzie's answer made Samantha throw her head back on the pillow. She thought, 'He was just acknowledging his own child was pretty. It was not really a comment towards me.'"And Daddy always asks how you are, Mommy. We always talk about you," suggested Kyle.Getting up to look at her son again, she asked, "In WhatsApp?""Yes, Mommy," said Kyle before yawning. "I'll sleep now, M
"Daddy, Mommy looks so pretty today," told Kenzie with dreamy eyes and a smile not to be ignored.She looked at her mother, and back to her father, waiting for an answer.Ethan was dividing the chicken pops between the two kids when Kenzie remarked. It made him smile and look up to Samantha. He agreed, "Your Mommy is... always pretty."It had only been recently that Ethan had been willingly and clearly expressing appreciation, and that was towards Samantha. No one else."Of course, they will always think that their Mommy is pretty," Samantha countered, trying to hide the blush on her face, but the truth was, she prepared for that special lunch.She wore a dress she had not worn in years. It was one of her mother's dresses; a plain navy blue, ruffled sleeve dress with semi-plunging neckline.Her wavy hair was down to her shoulders as usual, but that day, Samantha put on a little makeup over her face and wore her mother's pendant.

Months after Samantha and Ethan had their honeymoon, they were back to their busy lives. With the second hotel in full operation, Samantha was now running five restaurants all in all. She now manned over two hundred chefs, requiring the promotion of two executive chefs. Ethan, on the other hand, was on the road to making his first Diamond Hotel outside the city. Ultimately, he wanted to make a hotel chain, keeping the Diamond brand. Kenzie and Kyle accelerated two years ahead, making them ready for high school after a year.While still young, both were fixated on their dreams and already had a map outlined for them to follow. Kyle wanted to be a computer engineer while Kenzie wanted to be a model or an actress. While the entertainment industry was not what Ethan dreamed for his child, he understood that he should not be in the way of his daughter's dream. He supported them by giving outside-of-school classes.
Many years had passed since Ethan and Samantha got married. Yet, Samantha's beauty remained remarkable at thirty-three. Her golden hair already grew down to her back, and she did not seem to have aged at all.She had her hair somewhat straightened, with just enough waves to give life to her still angelic face.It was thanks to Ethan's pampering that she always had time to take care of herself.Getting her hair and make-up done in front of a vanity table, she received compliments left and right."Mrs. Wright, you are so beautiful. Your husband must really adore you.""Mr. and Mrs. Wright are perfect for each other."Samantha smiled as they fixed her up. She said, "I am... confident about that too. We are a great pair."Still, it was because she was wondering about the dress she was about to wear that she asked, "Although the dress has Sapphire gems on them, does it look to you as a wedding gown?""No, no.
Another year passed."Winfield, do you take Sarah to be your wedded wife, to live together in marriage? Do you promise to love her, comfort her, honor and keep her for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and health, and forsaking all others, be faithful only to her, for as long as you both shall live?" The officiant asked.Looking into his wife's eyes, Winfield Davis answered, "I do."After the priest asked the same Sarah Davis, she smiled back at her husband and answered, "I do.""May your love be eternal and undying. In witness of your love and commitment, it is now my pleasure to introduce you to those present here as husband and wife. In honor of your entrance into holy matrimony, you may now kiss the bride," the officiant closed, encouraging Sarah and Winfield to face the crowd.Smiles could be seen between Winfield and Sarah as they officially remarry after a year of moving to their new home.Cheers and
"Following my years of service, I officially announce my retirement. It has been a memorable and challenging years, serving my country, but the time has come for me to give my attention to my lovely wife, Sarah, and to my daughter," Announced Winfield Davis as he stood in front of a podium.Flashes could be heard around the military stadium where many of the reporters were invited to witness the General's official statement as he stepped down being the head of the nation's armed forces.Finally, after two years of requesting from the government, Winfield was granted the chance to retire early and spend the rest of his time with his family."And with my official retirement, I am proud to reveal the next general to follow in my footsteps!" Added Winfield.The crowd cheered and gave their applause to the newly appointed general, who happened to be one of Winfield's trusted men.In the front rows, Samantha, Ethan, and thei
"Doctor? How is it?" Ethan asked after the doctor came back in with the results of Samantha's recent laboratories.The doctor sat on his desk and reviewed the documents. After a while, he answered, "Everything is normal, and it has been for more than a year now."With a smile on his face, the doctor added, "I suppose it's safe to say that the Kannareth disease will no longer manifest."While Samantha was pregnant, she had monthly laboratories done, just to keep her health monitored.Shortly after giving birth, they have switched to quarterly visits to the doctor, and thankfully, Samantha showed no signs of the Kannareth disease.The doctor scoffed and declared, "So the pregnancy may have really helped!""We think so, doctor. In fact, BNU pharmaceuticals are already looking into this angle." Ethan leaned back in his seat and told, "I have even funded their research so more women who are affected by this illness will find a solutio
Six months passed.Both Kaleb and Kate were growing up well. The twins were gaining weight fast as well.They were able to easily sit up with minimal support at six months, already able to play with their siblings, blabber, and giggle happily as they did."Crawl to me, Kate!" Kenzie called as she and Kyle were playing with their younger siblings from inside the nursery."And Kaleb, come to me!" Kyle encouraged.The four of them were inside a fenced area of the nursery, with floor mats and with stuffed toys and other toys fit for their age.Nearly every day, Kenzie and Kyle had made it a habit to play with their siblings in the afternoon. Their Mommy usually joined them whenever Samantha would get off from work early.Kate and Kaleb excitedly crawled in the direction of their siblings, racing as they giggled in thrill.With Kaleb's stronger built, however, he managed to arrive firs
"John, I'm taking a paternity leave for two weeks," Ethan told his assistant on the phone.He heard John Garcia's awkward response, "Ah, boss. Your family owns the company, so you don't need to ask permission."There was silence between them before Ethan said, "I know that, John. I am telling you so you can clear my schedule and do what you needed to do. As necessary, see me at home with important documents.""In any case, Dad will stand in for me," Ethan added."Yes, Mr. Wright, and congratulations on your babies! May I just say, I am very - very happy for you," said John.Putting down the phone, Ethan turned to his little man, sleeping in the hospital crib. He smiled, took Kaleb in his arms, and said, "Mommy will have to keep visiting your sister for some time... So I guess, you'll spend more time with Daddy for two weeks."Soon, Samantha came in with Sarah, being brought with a wheelchair. Samantha said, "I'm ready to go
2:00 AM at a private hospital. "Doctor, what's going on?" Ethan asked the hospital's resident' physician from inside a private room equipped for Samantha to give birth. "Mr. Wright, your wife's water broke. She will have to deliver the babies soon," told the doctor. Both of them spoke outside the room while Samantha and the babies were being monitored. "But the second baby is not ready yet," Ethan expressed, utterly concerned for his child. "Mr. Wright, sadly, there is no stopping this. It's because the first baby is already ready," the doctor told. "What we can assure you I that the babies will be given the best care and treatment." "Your second baby may need a machine to breathe while her lungs are still not yet fully developed. However, it depends. Base on your wife's records; she received steroids treatment. The baby's lungs may have developed in advance." The doctor shrugged and said, "We can only tell when the b
