One Night Mistake (English) ONM: Chapter 44
---The days passed quickly. I finished everything I needed to do at the office, I also stopped by the resort I’m having built to check on it, and I did a shoot for a magazine and billboard again. I finished all of that so I could have three days free.Tomorrow is Penelope and Chad’s wedding. It will be held in Tagaytay. Later, we’re all going to the hotel together with some of Penelope and Chad’s relatives.Penelope chose to have us all go together so that everyone would be there and no one would be late tomorrow. Plus, it wouldn’t be so much of a hassle. She has a point.I packed everything I need in a small luggage, and Penelope has my gown. I wasn’t able to pick it up because I didn’t have time. Before leaving, I made sure to take care of Alexis. I also told him that I would be gone for three days, and he agreed right away. How could he not? His Uncle Vince bought him a PS5, so he has something to keep him busy.I didn’t expect Kuya to actually follow through with his reward for A

When I entered my hotel room, I flopped onto the bed and shut my eyes tightly. Why did this have to happen now, of all times, during Penelope's wedding? How can I focus on this? Damn! I grabbed my small bag, fumbled for my phone inside, and called Manang Fe to check on Alexis. She answered on the third ring. “Hello, Manang Fe? How are you all doing there?” “We’re fine, dear. Alexis is asleep. After having lunch earlier, he rested for a bit and then fell asleep. He didn’t spend much time playing on his PS5.” I smiled. My son always knows what he needs to do. I'm so proud of him. “That's good to hear. Okay, Manang, I’ll call again later when Alexis wakes up.” “Alright, dear. Take care there.” “Yes, Manang. Thank you. Bye.” I closed my eyes after speaking with Manang Fe, just to relax my mind for a while. I need to think straight. I can’t avoid Alec—we’re staying in the same hotel for three days, so it’s impossible not to cross paths. Maybe it’s better to talk to him seriously.

I just stared at Alec, waiting for him to speak again. I felt nervous—what kind of secret was he about to tell to me? And why did he suddenly decide to tell me? Was it because we were finally able to have a proper conversation? “I know you're angry at my cousin because you've been led to believe he only used you and that everything was a plan between him and Loraine, but that's not the truth, Vivien. Yes, we know what you said to him back then. He poured out all his pain to us. I'm telling you this because you also have the right to know the truth. My cousin is a fool. He didn’t tell you any of this before. You believed Loraine’s lies,” Alec said calmly, but I couldn’t believe it.Alec stared at me seriously before speaking again. “He's been crazy in love with you since elementary school, all the way through college. Oh wait, I’m wrong—until you graduated and started modeling. He was your stalker. He chose to become an engineer so he could work on projects with you. He even planne

The next day, I woke up early to get ready. I immediately took a shower, dried my hair, and put on the robe Penelope gave me, which had "Maid of Honor" written on the back. There was going to be a photoshoot later while we were getting ready. I checked the time—it was still early, so I had time to have breakfast. I decided to order room service for breakfast. I didn’t want to go down to the buffet, where all the guests were. Actually, the food was free for us, but I didn’t want to see Dad, and especially not Loraine. So room service it was. I was about to reach for the phone on the bedside table when the doorbell rang. Curious, I went to the door. When I opened it, a staff member was standing there with food. He was smiling widely. “Good morning, ma’am. Here’s your breakfast.” I looked at him in confusion. “Huh? I haven’t ordered yet. I was just about to call.” “This was sent for you, ma’am.” Oh, maybe Penelope or Mom sent it. I opened the door wider so the staff could place t

I turned to Chad. “Chad, thank you for supporting me and Penelope before. You understand my situation, and from that, I can truly see your love for my best friend. I never heard you complain or say anything negative. Thank you for that, and I will always be grateful for what you did for me... and for him... Take care of my best friend and love her until you both grow old. And be patient with her, okay? You know how stubborn she can be sometimes.” Chad laughed. “No backstabbing, Girl!” Penelope said with a smirk. I just laughed and continued speaking. “But even though my best friend can be a little difficult at times, she loves you so much, Chad. It's all up to you now. I trust you a lot. Just don’t hurt her. Be a good husband and a future father.” He smiled before taking the microphone. “You're always welcome, Vi. Thank you also for strengthening our relationship. Don’t worry, I will take care of and love Penelope more than my own life. And we’re always ready to help both of you.”

I woke up at around five in the morning. Since I went to bed early last night, I woke up early as well. I went to the veranda to relax and wait for the sun to rise. The view from my room is beautiful. I think I’ll go around later with Mom and Kuya; we're leaving tomorrow morning, so we can spend some quality time together. After I got bored, I went inside to prepare what I’d wear for the day. I chose a long maxi dress and flat sandals. Once I was ready, I went straight to the bathroom to take a shower. While combing my long hair, I texted Alexis. I knew he was still asleep because of how late he went to bed last night, so I thought it would be better to text him before he woke up to avoid any misunderstandings. After sending the message, I put my phone down and faced the mirror. I checked myself out in the full-length mirror. I thought my outfit was fine, and I only put on lip tint and a little blush on my face. Just then, there was a knock on the door. I quickly went to check who

Our table went quiet, and there was tension between me and Dad. He was glaring at me. “That's enough, Dad. Penelope and the others didn’t stay long at the party last night either because they were tired too. So it’s not a big deal. Stop this now,” Kuya cut in coldly and seriously. I could tell he was also getting frustrated. But then someone suddenly spoke up. “You know, Ate Vivien, Dad is right. Even if you're tired or whatever your reason is, you should've stayed with your best friend until the end before you rested. For sure Penelope was more tired than you, right? Hmm, Alec wasn’t at the party last night either. Aren’t you two together? Looks like there’s something between you two.” She looked at me innocently. I laughed sarcastically at what she said before leaning back in my seat. I stared at her coldly before speaking. “First of all, are we talking to you for you to join the conversation? Second, do you have Marites blood? You're so nosy. You immediately give meaning to w

After I finished organizing my things, Penelope arrived just in time. She frowned as I opened the door for her. “Gosh, I can't believe your dad's mistress is still like that. Are you okay? And that half-sibling of yours—ugh, I was so tempted to step in earlier, but it’s your family’s business. I didn’t want Vanessa to say something to me! My goodness! Even aunt Vivian, who’s been quiet, got dragged into this mess. So stressful! But if they had caused trouble or attacked you, I swear, I wouldn’t have stayed out of it,” she said, annoyed, as she sat on the edge of the bed. Chad wasn’t with her; he was probably entertaining their guests. “Wait…” She suddenly stood up and approached my luggage, which was already packed. She turned to me, surprised. “You’re going home?” I nodded. “After everything that happened, I just can’t stay here anymore. I feel like if we run into each other, something will happen. You and Chad are heading to Baguio tomorrow anyway, right? We won’t be traveling t

When the car stopped, I started to feel nervous. I put on my mask and blazer before entering the hospital. I went straight to the front desk to ask where Loraine's room was. They kindly told me the directions. I started walking and took the elevator. 5th floor, room 206B. It was a private room.When I got out of the elevator, I turned right and immediately saw the room. It wasn’t hard to find because the name was on the wall next to the door.Patient name: Loraine Herrera.I smiled. Herrera, huh? I stared at the door for a few seconds before deciding to turn the doorknob. Luckily, it wasn’t locked.As I entered, I kept a casual expression on my face. The people I didn’t want to see were there, and they were all looking at me. Vanessa raised an eyebrow while staring at me. Dad was just staring emotionlessly. Xander stood up in shock and greeted me. Meanwhile, Xander’s parents quietly observed.I looked at Loraine, clearly tired and sleep-deprived. She seemed okay, though? Tsk. “Baby,

The next day, I woke up again in Xander's arms, a smile forming on my lips. Last night, after a hot kiss, we returned to the room to rest. We didn’t do anything out of the ordinary.I hugged him until he woke up, and we had a short conversation while still holding each other. Then we both got up to start the day. He wasn’t going to work again today; he said he’d be watching over our son. Just like yesterday, we happily had our breakfast together. “Bye, Mom! See you later! I love you.” “Bye, Baby, I love you too. See you later.” I kissed him on the cheek before turning to Xander. “Bye, I’ll just text you later.” I stepped a little closer to him to give him a kiss on the lips. “Alright. I love you.” “I love you too. Be careful on your way home. Text me when you get to the condo, okay?”"Yes, ma’am!" Both Xander and Alexis said as they saluted me. I chuckled and shook my head before getting out of the car. I didn’t let them out because we’d be the center of attention again.When I e

It turns out we’re doing a sexy photoshoot today. I wasn’t informed—I thought it would just be a regular one.After getting my makeup and styling done, I went straight to the set to start the shoot.The photoshoot began, and I struck fierce poses since it was a sexy concept. I followed all the photographer’s instructions, making sure every pose was perfect so we wouldn’t have to redo anything. I didn’t want to waste time.The makeup artist met me afterward to retouch my makeup. Then, I changed into another sexy dress for the next shoot.I sent Xander a text, letting him know I had just one more shoot left and they could pick me up at the agency. Then I went back to continue the session.A wide smile spread across my face as soon as the shoot was over. I immediately headed to the dressing room to grab my things and change. I couldn’t wait to see my boys—I missed them so much.As I entered the room, I walked straight ahead, unable to wipe the smile off my face despite feeling tired. J

After an exhausting morning of playing around, we decided to leave the room. I still had to go to the office today—I couldn’t afford to skip work because of all the tasks waiting for me. Plus, I needed to stop by the agency later for a shoot.When we stepped out, breakfast was already prepared. As soon as we sat down, Xander took charge of serving food onto Alexis’ plate and mine. Alexis was absolutely thrilled that his dad was the one taking care of him today.“You’re going to work today?” Xander asked as we ate.“Yeah, I have to. I’ve got a pile of tasks at the office, and I have a shoot later at the agency.”He nodded thoughtfully.“Alright. I won’t go to Batangas today. I’ll postpone it until tomorrow. I’ll stay here to bond with our son. I’ll take care of him today, and we’ll drop you off and pick you up from work. Is that okay with you, son?”He turned to our son with a smile. Alexis eagerly nodded in agreement.“Yes, Dad! That’s a great idea! Let’s pick up Mom later. She’ll p

When I was done, I walked to the living room to call my husband and son, who were playing PS5.“Boys, stop playing now. Dinner is ready.”They both turned to me, nodded, and put down their controllers.Cute.Holding hands, they walked toward me. Xander gave me a gentle kiss on the forehead before wrapping an arm around me and guiding me to the dining area.“Wow! My favorite! Mom, did you cook this?”I nodded with a smile before serving Alexis some rice and caldereta. Then I filled Xander’s plate with rice, adding caldereta on one side and chop suey on the other.“Thank you, baby.”I simply smiled in response and served myself some rice. Manang Fe and Len watched us happily from the side.The dinner table was filled with laughter and stories. I mostly just listened as Xander and Manang Fe quickly bonded.After eating, I offered to clear the table and wash the dishes. I told Manang Fe to rest since her back suddenly started aching. Alexis went to clean herself up, leaving just Xander

“Yes, Dad! That's it! They'll catch you, Dad! Hurry up!”I paused what I was doing and turned to look at my son and husband when I heard Alexis's cheerful voice. A sweet smile spread across my lips as I saw them. I leaned back in my chair and watched them. I felt so light, so happy. I never imagined things would turn out this way. I’m lucky Xander understood the reasons behind my actions back then, even though I was partially at fault. He chose not to dwell on it. What matters to him is that we're whole again now.We’re still in my office. After the serious conversation earlier, I decided to work for a bit before we head to my condo. Yes, Xander wanted to stay at my condo too. Our son is overjoyed, and seeing him so happy fills me with contentment. I didn’t object—Xander and Alexis need time together to make up for the years they missed. Plus, it’s safer. Loraine won’t be able to barge in unexpectedly, thanks to the tight security there.Grandma has already gone home, but she was thr

Alexis' eyes widened as he looked at his father, his lips slightly parted. Xander, on the other hand, gazed softly at his son, his eyes brimming with unshed tears. I noticed the tears threatening to fall, and even I couldn’t help but feel emotional.“Is he really my daddy, mommy? Is that why you were holding hands earlier?” he asked softly, not looking at me. His shimmering eyes remained fixed on his father.“Yes, baby. He is your father. Go ahead, approach him,” I gently encouraged. Alexis obeyed and slowly walked toward Xander. Xander lifted his trembling hands, ready to embrace him.When Alexis got close, he immediately threw his arms around his father.“D-Daddy…”I clutched my chest, overwhelmed with emotion. Even if my son hadn’t expressed it in words, I knew he longed for his father—wanted to meet and know him. Though he never asked, I could see it in his eyes.“Son…” They embraced tightly. Tears streamed down my face, just as they did Xander’s, as he hugged and kissed our son’s

Vanessa approached her daughter before angrily turning to me.“How dare you insult us! You’re really getting back at us, aren’t you?! You took Xander from Loraine as revenge!”I smirked and shook my head. Talking to them was mentally draining.“Why? Are you hurt, Vanessa? Because it’s the truth? You took my dad, and Loraine took Xander from me. I’m just taking back what’s mine. There’s nothing wrong with what I did. And you? What are you even fighting for? How many times do I have to repeat myself, huh? Destiny is simply exposing your true colors! And you, Loraine, forcing yourself on someone who doesn’t love you? What a pity!”I said sarcastically. Vanessa and Lorraine were both fuming with anger. It was painful, but it was the truth. They just needed to accept it.“I will never let you take Xander away from me! He’s mine! We’re getting married!” Loraine screamed defiantly.“There’s nothing that belongs to you, Lorraine. From the start, he was never yours. He’s mine. You just interfe

“Be strong. Fight for the love that has been taken away from you. You two deserve to be happy. But you still need to be careful. Loraine is in love with you, Xander, and that woman won’t give up easily. Don’t let her hurt my daughter.”Both Xander and I nodded, aware of what Loraine could really do. She’s a crazy bitch! She ruined things between Xander and me before, which is why we broke up. And now that I know the truth and Xander and I have made up, I will take back what was mine. Xander is mine. From the very beginning, he was always meant to be mine.So she can’t tell me that I stole Xander because from the start, she was the one who took him. I won’t stay silent anymore. I won’t give in or adjust. This time, it's all about me.“Yes, Tita, Dawn and I are aware of what Loraine might do, and don’t worry, I’ll do everything to protect her,” Xander said.“Alright, that’s all I wanted to hear. I’m just here to support both of you.”Both Xander and I smiled at Mommy. She’s so kind and
