Only Till Forever CHAPTER 63: The truth hurts
ARSENIO'S POV I was walking towards the restroom in search of Adele the moment I found she'd excused herself from talking with Manager Henry's loud wife. Seeing her smile and talk with Carlo was really a heart shattering moment for me. When he'd leaned behind her ears and whispered something, I felt really sick within. And then, the moment Emily had come by and taken her away, Carlo had sent a knowing glare my direction. I just watched him silently from the side. Would I really let him take her away from me? I knew the answer to that question in my heart. It's really going to be a tough decision. Presently, I was walking down the hallway when I sighted her coming from the opposite direction, her eyes on her phone. Her eyebrows furrowed as a bewildered look reflected on her face. What's it this time? Another secret she may never spill? I could feel the intense battle of my emotions within me as my eyes took in her every move. Would she even accept my feelings? There's no p
Only Till Forever CHAPTER 64: The young CEO Collapsed.
ADELE'S POV Walking back into the hall, I tried my best to appear calm. I don't need any unusual report about me on the media. I already dabbed my face with some makeup in other to hide my puffy eyes. I looked around as I walked, flashing a small smile to several people in greeting. My eyes scanned the hall for Carlo. There's no sight of him, I couldn't see his subordinate either. Deciding I wasn't going to think about Arsenio's misbehavior, I approached my friends' table. Did Carlo already leave? Why did Arsenio stared behind my back before he'd suddenly kissed me? "Oh Adele, you're here. Guess who came by to look for you." Lana said with a toothy grin the moment she saw me. "Who was it?" I asked as I sat down on the empty chair beside her. "It was Carlo." Lu Cheng said and my eyes widened. "He apologized to us and said he was going to meet us again and talk in a more convenient environment. And..." "And?" I urged on impatiently. "He asked of you and we dir
Only Till Forever CHAPTER 65: In a coma again
NARRATIVE The girls let out a gasp the moment Adele explained what had happened to them. "OMG! I never thought he could do such a thing. My gosh, I'm highly disappointed." Lana shook her head in disapproval of what Arsenio had done. "Exactly! I thought he's a sweet guy. Too bad because I can't vouch for him again." Clara said poutingly while she stared softly at her sister. She could imagine how Adele's feeling presently. "Now it's no longer Carlo who's the bad guy like we thought, it's now Arsenio." Lu Cheng sighed, her head resting against the couch as she stared reflectively at the ornate ceiling in Adele's living room. Adele smiled sadly as she listened to them lament. She was staring regretfully at her phone, rereading Carlo's text for the umpteenth time since she discovered it. "You guys, don't blame him that much. It's my fault to not have noticed his obsession from the start." She said and the girls immediately disagreed. "No Adele, don't even think about
Only Till Forever CHAPTER 66: Because of her
BRENDA'S POV I stared at Carlo's Doctor blankly. There's no way I heard him well. What does he mean by that? My little brother was in coma yet another time because of the same woman?! Carlo how could you do this to me? Do you know how much I suffered for the three years you were out and depending on life support?! "What...what did you mean just now?" I managed to say, though my voice came out shaky and rough. I swallowed the painful lump in my throat as I felt tears pooled up in my eyes. This shouldn't be happening again! I warned him. I warned him but he didn't listen. Did he really care about this girl more than he cared about me, his only sister? His only sibling? His only family? "Chairwoman," the doctor began calmly. "I think you should take things easy. With the right medication and of course, his will to overcome this stage, I'm sure he'd be up within months." "Months?" My fists clenched at either side of my dress. "You mean, my brother's likely to be in a com
Only Till Forever CHAPTER 67: An unusual stare
NARRATIVE Staring at the cold looking woman, who sat in her position at the far end of the conference hall, Rhys couldn't help but notice something was quite unusual with her. The Chairwoman of the renowned CR's Luxury_Brenda Rodriguez, gave off a really cold aura as she sat domineeringly, in her exquisite leather chair. Rhys watched her carefully from the side as she shot her icy glare across the conference room. Staring at the entire team of the Investor Relations department sitting before her, Brenda leaned back on her chair just as a side of her lips curved up in a deadly smirk. "Who was it?" She asked yet again, her voice laced in a subtle warning tone. The conference room fell silent once more. The team members knew how well not to anger her. Especially when she's in her domineering chairwoman mood. They all had their heads bowed low as they glanced questioningly at each other_knowing fully well it was only a matter of minutes before she catches the culpr
Only Till Forever CHAPTER 68: Ms. anonymous
NARRATIVE The loud ringing of Lisa's phone underneath her pillow, made her wake from her deep sleep instantly. Rolling on her bed as she searched for her phone, her eyes came in contact with the bedside clock. "Oh my God! 9:03am?" She instantly sat up the bed. She glanced down at the caller ID on her phone while rubbing her sleepy eyes. "Elaine?" She immediately received the call. "Hello, Elaine." She said with a sleepy voice, yawning loudly in the process. "Lisa are you still sleeping? Girl, I thought you said Adele Rivera and that famous model weren't an item. Were you just assuming yesterday and it wasn't based on facts?" "Wait, what?" Lisa frowned as she pushed a hand through her disheveled hair. "Oh my! Just come online now or turn on your TV." Elaine added before she hung up. Still frowning confusedly at her phone, Lisa reluctantly reached out her hand at the remote on the bedside drawer and she immediately turned on the TV, switching to entertainmen
Only Till Forever CHAPTER 69: His sister, A visitor
NARRATIVE Deeply into the sketch of a dress she was making on her sketchpad, Adele's mind wavered several times as she wait for Lana's call. She sincerely hoped it'll yield positive results. Just then, her phone which was on her desk beside her sketchpad, rang. Immediately, she dropped her pencil and picked it up on seeing it's Lana calling. "Hey Lana, what's the update? Is he around?" She asked expectantly but her hope was dashed once more when she heard her sigh. "I'm sorry Adele. Carlo's no longer in NYC." Lana's words made Adele stunned for a while. "Tha...that's what Alistair's friend said? Did you perhaps asked where he's located at the moment? Probably, he returned to Canada?" She hurriedly asked, trying to hold onto any bit of hope she could get. It shouldn't be like the last time, right? He didn't disappear without leaving a trace once again. At least, this time, she could ascertain his whereabouts and go to him. "I asked him, Adele. Sadly, he said he
Only Till Forever CHAPTER 70: Why three years ago?
NARRATIVE Lisa smiled at her reflection on her vanity mirror. Combing through her long black silky hair, she paused as a thought occurred to her. Shrugging seconds later, she picked up her phone from the vanity and began to scroll through it. She read through the news about the famous fashion designer, Adele Rivera and the CEO of Excellency Modeling Agency, Arsenio Alessandro once again. "Agh!" She exclaimed. "This won't do. I should see her." Immediately, Lisa stood up from her chair, grabbed her purse and hurried out of her room.____ "Hello, Ms. Adele." Lisa said the moment she walked into the cozy luxurious office. Her nostrils picked up the sharp but welcoming scent of rose, fresh rose. And at a fast glance around the office, she saw several fresh red rose plants in some vases. "Oh hello," Adele smiled at her as she stood up from her chair. "You're welcome. Please sit." She ushered her visitor to one of the comfy couch in her office. "Thank you." Lisa smiled

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
Only Till Forever CHAPTER 100: Cheers to forever, Bebe
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
Only Till Forever CHAPTER 97: A new name for a surprise princess
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
Only Till Forever CHAPTER 96: Congratulations, it's a baby girl
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
Only Till Forever CHAPTER 95: Change of plans

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." Adele said as she stared at the diamond ring in her ring-finger, while Carlo chuckled over her words. "You've always wanted to go on a yacht date, under the sunset and although it took several years, I just granted your wish." He smiled. "Right." She nodded. "In the most
Only Till Forever CHAPTER 94: Lana's water broke
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. I was sure and even more willing to walk through forever with him. He's my soulmate and there's never gonna be anything changing that.Let's do this, Adele!Let's say 'yes' to a promising forever again. "Will you marry me, Adele?"
