"RIGHT, MOMMY?”Cole’s words and after years. Which made everyone fall into silence and total surprise. Sam then stands almost slamming the table hard, with nanny Ester that is now in tears for finally hearing Cole speaking again. “Cole?”Cath’s gentle call and asking. Tears that falling from her eyes from the mix of shock and happiness that she is feeling. “Smile mommy. I do not want to see you cry.”Cole consoles her with his cute smile and his small hands that wipe her tears away. “Cole!”Monique rushes to her little twin brother and hugs him tight with tears in her eyes. “You are finally speaking again.”The little girl’s delighted that Cole nods in agreement and giggles. “I can even hear his giggle now.”Cath’s overwhelming gladness, that even the servants are all teary eyes for what they are seeing. “This is so great!”Monique jumps in glee, and in seconds cries for happiness. “Thank you so much, Cole is speaking right now.”“There, there. Stop crying Monique as we all sh
“CANCEL everything on my schedule today.”Sam instructed Brian who is on the other line and currently in the office waiting for him. “Why?”Sam’s teasing smile draws that both made Cath feel fear and excitement about what he is about to say. Worse when Sam looks at her with those eyes and smiles that no one can resist and say that she is his world. “I need to be with my family today and spoil the woman that I am chasing after.”DAMN! Cath didn’t expect those words and added Sam’s smile that made her heart beat fast once more. When she feels like that, she is about to melt any moment now. “You know what to do.”Sam then hangs up the phone and looks at his twins whose smile is from ear to ear and staring lovingly at both of them of Cath. “Daddy!” Monique raises her hand, looks at them with her demanding gaze, and commands. “Take Miss Cath into a special place, spoil her for the entire day, do not think about us of Cole. And most importantly take her on a date!”The bold suggestion
“YOU are going in or I’ll force you?”Sam’s choices that Cath rather run away and disappear. But she couldn’t.“Alright.”Always left with no other choice, and somewhat falling into the palm of Sam’s advantages and everyone’s schemes against her. Cath breath deep and out and look at the luxurious store that isn’t to her style nor on her lifestyle.“Yes.”Sam’s attention is shifted. Taking a phone call and ask Cath.“Go on first and I’ll follow you later.”He instructed which Cath agrees and without fuss.“Just how hard could it be to choose one, and that’s it!”She assures herself, with her minimalist nature and simplicity that shows her profession and back ground as a journalist. She then opens the door and steps inside only to be greeted by a hateful glare of the store’s attendant.“I’m sorry, but what are you doing here?”A direct insult that slap Cath on her face. Which makes all her simple could be shopping slump into worse.“I am here to buy clothes.”She replies in a clam manne
"NOW, close the store and assist my wife.”“Yes Sir.”And that’s how a boss should do it!“You are quite a boss yourself.”Cath disses and at the same time a bit teases Sam.“But you see, there is only one person who can boss me.”With a wink and a smile, Cath’s eyes widen and immediately move away from Sam with her redden ears that didn’t escape Sam’s eagle eyes.Giggling, Sam added. “Being a boss is just one of my skill, but do you know what is my forte?”Cath’s doesn’t want to hear it, knowing what he will say and the flirting scene that’s oozing from his face. Yet, Sam doesn’t want to be stop by just like that.“Spoiling my wife to the core.”Ends up laughing from his teases, wherein in the eyes of any woman is too sexy to not droll over him. Cath on the other hand is in a mix of bursting her steam from the heat of the moment and irritation for letting the other girls see him with his smile that she just couldn’t admit, but she wanted it all to herself. “Fine.”She blurts out and
“PERFECT. Just like how I imagine you will be with me and only with me. Cath.”Cath’s plan failed. For instead of Sam getting speechless and swoon by her appearance with the dress of her choice, she was the one who took the blow from Sam’s declaration.“Prepare everything, you all know what to do next.”Sam instructed his staff with a bit of a mystery that everyone immediately heeded. Leaving them alone.“That’s it? Where done here? How about the other dresses?”Cath is taken aback, but honestly is trying to make her way out from the awkward situation that only she is having. Asking about the summer dresses that Sam made the attendants prepare for her.“You do not need to fit those dress. They already got your measurements. Besides, you will wear those dresses this weekend.”‘WEEKENED?’She thought with a bit of a red flag at hand and worse with Sam’s sudden sly smile that she is well aware and familiar about.“President Villamor invited us to their resort this coming weekend. Your co
“WELCOME TO ROYAL HOTEL.”The welcoming staff of the hotel greeted them immediately as they enter inside the hotel. A bit taken aback by Sam’s presence and their CEO, but none the less performed their job precisely and up to the standard of the hotel.“I guess I need to learn to expect the unexpected from you.”Cath’s compliment after looking at the interior of the hotel that’s sophistication, class and luxury is balance with warmth and comfort.“Is that a pure compliment from you, or an insult?”Sam read’s her inner thoughts. Giggling, Cath smiles and kept the answer to herself. Knowing that it is not important for now to dwell into Sam’s past, especially that she is now starting to look at him not by the fault that happened between them.“I’m hungry, why don’t you feed your wife already.”She teases that Sam knew that it is a game that will only last for this day.“Of course. Everything that my wife wishes.”The welcoming staff and the guess stop and in awe upon looking at the both
ENGROSS by the breathtaking view and the calmness of the landscape of the hotel’s garden. Cath has never been this relaxed for a while ever since becoming a journalist which is her dream job but is tiring bit by bit. Worse with her current assignment that she had a hard time starting with. “Look whose here.”The moment is broken, and somewhat Cath can now see the dark sky ahead of her life upon hearing the familiar voice that for a second she wishes that she got her wrong. “How have you been, Cath?”Dead wrong and just how her day is turning out great. It immediately engulfs her with disappointment with the unexpected encounter worse than finding herself falling in love with Sam.“Emerald.”Cath addresses the lady’s presence in dismay and fake smile. “Just look at how the world works.”Emerald smiles and excitedly claims. But for Cath, it is more like a death sentence in an instant for meeting the worse person who made her world in hell back in their college days. “How many years
WITH the blow that Emerald receives from Cath. She couldn’t help but feel good about herself. Now with a smile that irritates Emerald despite still having fear for what Cath had just told her. “To answer your question.” Cath smiles and in confidence with a little bit of threat. “I am doing perfectly great and having the time of my life Emerald. How about you?”Now asking the question with a bit of malice in it, made Emerald's spine run with chill for fear. Emerald immediately clams herself, draws her irritation towards Cath, and acts the same as she is. “More than perfect.”Emerald’s smile with sly intentions in it that taken Cath aback. With the hunch that Emerald will be about to counterattack her with words and taunting.“I still have my name. I have all the luxury and I am still one of the sought-out ladies in the state.”She proudly said, flaunting her standing and rubbing it on Cath’s face that whatever she had will never be hers. “Tsk!”Cath click her tongue in dismay and a
