More than hundreds of employees have been added since you left. Then starting on Monday, the first batch of newly hired people from our Garments Factory will come in, which is around 50 people."Lia was amazed at what she heard. "Wow, really?

The Owner"Mommy, where are we going?" Lia glanced at Khianna who was next to her and sitting in the baby car seat."We are going to visit your crazy godmothers, baby." She answered while carefully driving.Khianna's eyes widened. "Godmother Roxy, Mommy?""Yeah, baby, and also your godmother Ayesha and godmother Summer.""Yeay. Godmother, Godmother. I will see my Godmothers..." Khianna was clapping and smiling at Lia.They were not with Tina at that time because she had already taken a vacation to their province. Mother Norma and Sister Lita were there to look after Khianna while she was busy. Also, Khianna was able to adjust for three days with new acquaintances and with them at home. Vina is also there every afternoon because there is a summer class every morning. She presented to take care of Khianna while Tina was on vacation so that Lia wouldn't have any problems with her daughter when she was busy with her errands."We're here, baby." Lia stopped right in front of the Malditah bu
Reconciliation"Shh..." Lia's arms had a thought of their own, and she hugged her stepmother. "L-let's forget about the past Aunt Avet," she said. "Let us start moving on. A-as long as the important thing right now is that we let out our grudges with each other. Let's start a new beginning for my sister Chloe and especially Daddy Fred. Let's not give him a headache, okay?"Tearfully, Avet nodded to her, while Lia's eyes were wet as she stared at her."Thank you, Lia. Thank you so much and I'm so sorry again.""I'm sorry too, Aunt Avet. A-also forgive me for my rudeness against you." She warmly smiled and embraced her.No more long conversations and discussions happened. Lia and her stepmother Avet settle their matters very quickly. After 16 years of misunderstanding with each other, they settled. Even though everything was too late on each other's side, at least the tangle between them was resolved.Sorry... It was really a simple word but it gathered deep meanings. That is also the o
And The Hospital 2"W-what? W-what's wrong? What did dad's mean?" Lia asked Avet in surprise and confusion."Lia, I don't know anything about your father's business. I am just his plain housewife. Believe me. I don't know anything." Her soft words answer Lia.Lia sighed. "Okay, I'll call his lawyer."Avet smiled at her. "A-are you in a hurry to go home, Lia?"Lia raised her eyebrows. "Why are you asking?"She bowed as if ashamed. Everything she does and speaks softly is all new to Lia. And wait, why is there no trace of her first-born daughter's presence in the hospital?'After all, Dad is not her real father. So, why does she care about Dad's condition? Maybe she's too focused on her family with the child of my ex-husband.' Lia thought."I-I just wanted to talk to you deeply, Lia?" Lia raised her eyebrows again. "I-it was about your anger towards me, and Mildred.""And what about it?" Lia sneered."I-I would like to apologize to you. Please forgive me, Lia. I didn't mean to alienate y
And The Hospital 1When Lia arrived at the Hospital, she immediately asked the nurse in the reception area for her Father's hospital room number. When she already had it, she hurried to go to his room.Lia felt the tension enveloped her in every step she made. She was nervous about whatever she would encounter or see inside her Father's room.She sighed heavily when she was already in front of her father's private room. Her heart beat faster but she braced herself before knocking on the closed door.Lia slowly opened the door. She swallowed hard and her heart was gradually crushed by what his eyes saw."D-daddy..." Lia's tears immediately fell.His father looked at Lia and the other people who were in the same room."C-child. L-Lia..." her daddy tried to raise his arm in her direction.Lia moved forward to her father's side and she immediately reached out to his hands. "Daddy.." she squeezed and hugged her father's weak arm. "Daddy, I miss you. I'm so sorry that I only came home now.
Potche"Go, child, I think your daddy will be happy because you finally came home too. Don't worry about your daughter's child; I'm here to check on her, too.""Thank you, mother Norma." Lia weakly smiles. "I miss you, all of you here.""You too, we miss you so much, Lia. I thank you and finally go home.""Because it's necessary. But I really have a plan. After Khianna's 2nd Birthday, I would go home. But this happened; I can't sleep, and I can't think properly because I am so worried about Dad.""Tragedy, daughter, is that you don't know when it will happen. Sometimes you'll just be shocked because something happens that you didn't fully expect. But don't worry, daughter, because everything really happens and God has a plan. God will not give you such thoughts and problems if you cannot overcome them. See, you're home now and your daddy is doing well."Lia nodded to Mother Norma in agreement."Don't be sad, Lia. Your daddy is still strong. We all know that he will overcome his illnes
New HomeLia's chest suddenly skipped a beat when she heard that last name. She never knew her uncle booked them in that Travel Agency. That's because her aunt and family didn't know the full name of Lia's ex-husband.She heaves a sigh.'The airport owned by this family must be too big for us to meet on my first day back here in the country, right? I know, he's the one who managed this business. So, I hope, I won't meet him that same day here... I hope...'Khianna is already awake, and when she wakes up, her daughter really likes to hug Lia and squeeze in her arms.'Welcome back to me. And welcome to the country my dear little Princess Khianna.' Lia whispers while embracing her daughter in her arms.A sultry atmosphere immediately greeted them as soon as they stepped out of the plane. Tina is carrying Khianna while Lia impatiently waits for their luggage in the arrival area. She rushes all the staff to take care of their luggage. That's because she didn't want to stay in that place fo
Going back homeIt's been three days since Lia heard that horrible bad news. Her aunt spilt what happened to her father, and that prompted Lia to return home to the Philippines as soon as possible.Her supposed next two and a half months plans are already cancelled, and it's moved to a very early flight. That's because Lia's father needs her and her help.Lia's heart ached and, broke into pieces the moment she heard the bad news. She was restless and unable to sleep with each passing hour and day.So she immediately took care of all the papers to facilitate her return home with her daughter and Tina. Lia is not leaving the country without Khianna's with her. So the processing of her daughter's papers took a while.Thanks to her uncle Arnold and to his friend who's working in the Government. If not, she might have to wait two weeks or more before they can leave Canada.One of Lia's concerns was resigning from her job at Cosmo la' Creation. Even if the management didn't approve and agree
Something Wrong"My goodness. Did you and Marcus really have a past? Uh-huh, so my instincts are really pretty right?" Ayesha said that something clicked in her mind. "I remembered you were like a cat and dog in the past years. And also, I really sensed something was going on. I just didn't pay much attention because Lia left and I became very busy.""Hey. Will you stop this nonsense topic, ladies? I don't know anything about what you're talking about." Roxy said trying to avoid their questions. "I want to talk to Khianna, not any of you." She added."Hey, tell us. Why don't you want to tell a story even if it's just a few hints?" Lia said and eyed Roxy."What am I supposed to tell you? That's what I hate about you, girls. You immediately give false meanings to everything you notice and see. Is it really forbidden to joke now?" Roxy clicked her tongue and shook her head.Lia stopped talking to the three when a woman who served the food ordered by Lia approached. After a while, Khanna a
Playful TuneCurrently, Lianne or Lia is drinking alone in a famous bar, she doesn't bother to invite her Malditah Friends because she wants to be alone so she can think.She had already taken five sips of wine when someone sat down next to her at the counter. She let it go and ignored it."Alone?"Lia frowned when she heard that baritone familiar voice. She turned to him only to be surprised and surprised to recognize that person."Ethan?"His eyes glared at her. "Yeah. It's me," he answered and then took a sip of the wine from the glass while staring at her darkly."Have you been drinking here for a while? I didn't notice you," she asked formally to him."Are you following me?"Her brow arches suddenly. "Excuse me?""Are you that desperate woman to follow me when you see me?"Lia's eyebrows arched more at what Ethan said or rather accused her of. "What are you talking about Mr. Lopez?""I'm taken, and I'm soon to be the husband of your step-sister."'I don't care if you are taken by
