Only Till Forever CHAPTER 24: No longer a damsel in distress
CARLO'S POVIt was silent in the car as Alvin drove me to her company, I wanted to see her as she gets off work. I just couldn't resist myself from meeting her now. I didn't care if it was the right time or not, what mattered most is that I'm going crazy with this want already. If I don't meet her today, I might as well lose my mind.A lot of disturbing thoughts came to mind as we approached the six storied castle-like building. How would she react to seeing me? Seeing she's ignored all the messages I've sent her thrice, would she ignore me today too? Does it mean she's removed me from her life? Well, I guess I'll be finding the answer soon."Boss, I don't think she's in." Alvin announced the moment the car approached the gate."Why do you say so?" I asked."Her car isn't in and from the look of things, they've closed for the day." He explained and I glance towards the entrance and nodded. He was right."Drive in the direction of her home, we might still catch up with her. If we don't

NARRATIVE"Carlo Rodriguez!" Adele spat, her expression getting clouded by rage instantly. She made no attempt in covering her spite on seeing him again_the handsome man who once meant everything to her. Looking at him, she wouldn't deny he was more matured, more masculine and much more dreamy. But now, all her heart saw was a monster appearing before her. "How dare you show your face to me again!"Carlo couldn't help but smile sadly, even though she uttered his name in hate, he was strangely glad to hear her say it again. He was impressed by her moves just now against the gangster who wanted to molest her. She was no damsel in distress again and somehow, he knew he caused it. She had built a tough wall around her and wouldn't let anyone hurt her easily again. She saved herself before he even got to her side and that was something Carlo felt strangely uncomfortable about.He was glad she was able to defend herself but at same time, he was sad because she didn't give him the chance to

NARRATIVE "Yes, Ms. He's still unconscious although it's been a few days now." Alvin reported over the phone to Brenda while he stared at Carlo sleeping on his bed. "That's normal, at least he's not fallen unconscious for a week in a while now. This means, we're making progress. Please make sure to give him the drugs accordingly when he regains consciousness." "Yes, Ms." "Thank you Alvin, Please keep an eye on him, let me know when he wakes. I want to have a talk with him." Alvin was about to reply her when he saw Carlo stirred slightly before his eyes fluttered open. "He's awake Ma'am. I have to attend to him immediately so I'm hanging up now." He said, standing up from his chair, disconnecting the call and keeping the phone before he hurried to Carlo's side. "Boss," Carlo sits up the bed, leaning against the headboard as he looks around. "What time is it Alvin? How are things going with Claire Rock's issue?" Alvin who was slightly surprised to hear him say this after hi

NARRATIVE Adele looked between her friends, eager to know what's up. What was making them so edgy. "Actually, we recently found out about Carlo. He was alive unlike how we assumed." Lu Cheng finally announced as they keenly watch Adele's reaction to this news. Adele had a blank expression on her face such that they couldn't read what she was thinking. Adele finally let out a sigh, leaning backwards and running a hand through her hair. Her friends have been so sincere and had stayed true with her despite all the years but she was the one who hadn't been sincere. She didn't tell them about getting Carlo's packages or even meeting him. She couldn't bring herself to tell them again as she worried that she had troubled them a lot already with her issues. Also, she didn't consider it much of a big deal as she already told him off and it seemed he obeyed. How was she to start apologizing for her insincerity with them since several weeks now? However, Adele knew she had to star

They sincerely commended her for a job well done_as they were amazed she could deliver within such a short time.Well, after the hired hands were done with their own part of the work, Adele had sent them away after paying them handsomely of course. She wasn't going to let outsiders see how her company finalizes the branding logo of the company's name in case of counterfeit issues. "Ms. Rivera," Adele turned her attention from her phone to her client who was checking out some of her designs in the shopping section of the company."Yes, Madame Georgina. Is there any to your liking in that section?" She walked up to the middle aged affluent lady. "Oh yes," the woman said enthusias

NARRATIVE In a black van speeding down the highway towards Washington DC, two young men_Claire Rock's subordinates, were singing loudly and vibing along to the pop music blasting from the van speakers totally oblivious of the black sedan car tailing them. Not long afterwards, they arrived at a checkpoint and on looking out the window, one of them sighted the police and almost panicked but his partner was quick to give him a warning glare. "Be cool! Remember what the boss had said. If we are found out, we'll be the ones going down not her. Do you understand?!" The second guy swallowed and hurriedly nodded, pushing his uneasiness aside and keeping a straight face. The car behind belonged to none other than Carlo's subordinates. They've been instructed to make sure things fall accordingly as they'd planned. Some minutes later, it was their turn to get inspected. The first guy lowered the glass of the Van's door.

NARRATIVE~Few minutes earlier~Carlo was having a leisure afternoon swim in his swimming pool when a subordinate walked up to him."Boss, Claire Rock's subordinates aren't willing to comply with the authorities and confess who they work for." The young guard, dressed in the usual bodyguard outfit said with a slight bow.Carlo swam back to the edge of the pool and climbed out, his black hair sticking to his scalp as the liquid trickle down his face and drool-worthy body. He was shirtless and his well defined muscles and abs wasn't something the maids around could get their eyes off. Heck! Their boss was freaking hot!Even as one of them hurriedly gave him a towel to dry his body, she couldn't help but blush."Tell Alvin to get on with it."

ADELE'S POV "Seriously it was never my intention to do that. I'd never do something like that to you. It was a situation beyond my control. Please just hear me out Delly." He was on his knees, tears rolling down his cheeks as he begged me to forgive him, to give him another chance.

Only Till Forever Epilogue
EPILOGUE~Five Years Later~ Someone was tapping her gently, trying to wake her up. Adele frowned in her sleep and pulled the duvet even more, over her face. "Bebeeee!" She groaned. "Just one more hour. It's soooo cold." Carlo smiled and pulled down the duvet once more. He stared down at her pouting lips and chuckled. "Come on now, otherwise Kerrin wouldn't spare us if she's unable to attend Celestine's 6th birthday party. You know how persistent she gets." He tried to coax her using their three year old daughter and his plan pulled through successfully. Adele sat up with a start at the mention of their daughter. Kerrin was just as persistent as Carlo. Not only that, she also shows great personality similarities with Maddy, Adele's Mom. The only thing the cute little one got from her was her appearance. Kerrin has pretty hazel eyes __which she obviously got from her Dad, Adele's smile and her facial features but her black hair was also from her Dad. She's so cute a

FINAL CHAPTERADELE'S POV Some hours later, our plane landed at the 'Ninoy Aquino International Airport' and the moment we stepped out of the terminal, some escort cars were already waiting for us. Moments after I'd stopped on my tracks and inhaled the scent of the country I've not stepped foot in for many years, I exhaled sharply and nodded slightly to Clara. Without wasting time or much words, we both stepped in the car and the thirty minutes drive to Quezon City began. "Clara, not much have changed in this city over the years. It still looked as exactly as I could remember..." I said with my gaze out the window and a small smile on my lips while I stared through the streets as our car drove past. "Oh, look at that stall Ma always sent us to get her beverages. I guess she still shops here." "Yeah, she still does. Although Willy does most of the shopping these days." Clara said beside me and I chuckled. "I thought as much."They'd be so surprised to see me again after
Only Till Forever CHAPTER 99: Lisa's blind date
NARRATIVE "I'm sorry okay? I promise you Lisa, this is the last Elaine and I would set you up on a blind date. Okay?" "Wasn't that what you said the last time too?" Lisa frowned as she stared at hers and Rosy's reflection on her full length vanity mirror. "No seriously, this is different. If at the end of it you still don't like him, you're free to cut me off for one month...oh no, one week.." Lisa smirked as she picked up the red lipstick on her vanity. "One month. You said it yourself. If he really turns out the same as the others or maybe even worse than the last, you'd have to keep to your word, sweetheart." She said. Rosy scratched her neck somewhat reluctantly. "Can we just make it one week? You know I can't keep off from you for even a day." She whinned and Lisa rolled her eyes. "Since you know it, why did you bother? It was your suggestion and I like it even more." She chuckled. "Why? Aren't you certain anymore that I'd like this dude?" "Oh gosh! This girl

Adele smiled as the memories of the past five days replayed in her head. She leaned further into her seat and closed her eyes, pulling down the black sleeping eye mask over her eyes. Beside her in the luxury first class compartment of the plane, Clara had huge dark shades on and she's deeply engrossed in a novel with Lily __ Adele's cute white poodle, on her laps. During these five days, Adele had taken care of some important matters in her company and had left the company under the care of her PA and sales manager. The news of her engagement to Carlo Rodriguez, hasn't hit the public yet. They had decided it was best not to announce it to the world for now until issues with her family's been sorted out. Thus, Adele refrained from sharing her joy publicly even when she badly wanted to. For now, the

NARRATIVE "A baby girl?" The girls chorused in their surprise. "Yes." The Doctor nodded. "Yesss!!!" Alistair squealed. "I got me a princess! A mini Lana!" He gushed and wasted no time in hurrying inside. Adele and Clara couldn't help but stare at the Doctor in confusion. Noticing this, the middle aged Doctor smiled and went ahead to explain the misunderstandings to them. "Ah, it seems you were all expecting a baby boy huh?" He chuckled. "The fault is from the hospital she had gotten a scan at, in the Philippines. They made a mistake in her scan result, probably an issue of swapped files. And she's not gotten another scan for the sex of the child since then." He nodded at them before he walked off. The sisters stared after his retreating figure in wonder. It seems he had no idea how the situation turned out like this too. "Ah, forget it. Let's go see Lana." Adele smiled, pulling Clara along. She wondered what the girls have to say to this, especially Lu Cheng

NARRATIVEPRESENTLY She leaned up and placed a quick kiss on his lips. "Don't worry, I'll call you." Adele smiled at Carlo and he sighed, finally letting go his hold on her waist. "I know. But are you sure you don't want me to come with you?" He asked for the umpteenth time since he escorted her down here to the rooftop of CR'S Luxury, where his private jet was waiting. "Come on Bebe. We've talked about this already. I can't let you leave the company now, when you've been absent for a long while. In as much as I'd appreciate your company, I can't let you come with me now. Brenda needs you by her side. The company needs you too. I'd definitely keep in touch before traveling to the Philippines as we've discussed. Okay?" She caressed his cheeks with her thumbs, her lips pursed and he slowly nodded. "Okay." He smiled. "You should go in now." He stared behind her at the waiting Jet. "Alright. See you soon." Adele nodded as she turned to leave. However, Carlo caught her hand b

Immediately she'd said 'Yes' and Carlo had swept her off her feet, both had shared an intimate moment with their lips before they were interrupted by the staff members that'd helped Carlo organize the event. They congratulated the couple on their new journey together, and had taken photos with them also before they quietly dispersed and left the couple to themselves. Carlo had then brought her to the luxurious and romantic dinner table the staff already prepared for them __ based on his earlier instructions. "Once a romantic, always a romantic."

ADELES'S POV I understand Carlo had proposed to me about six years and some months ago. As I stare at him now through my teary eyes, I can't help but remember the proposal at the beach. But comparing both now, this was the most romantic thing I'd ever witnessed. Words can't describe perfectly, how I'm feeling at this moment. I was certain when I had said 'yes' to marrying him several years ago. But this time, I was even more certain that I can't spend the rest of my life without this man in it.
