That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 23: Broken 3
Tahimik si Charlie habang nakaupo siya sa sala ng penthouse ng pamilya niya sa SSL. Doon siya dinala ng mga bodyguards niya at ni Deigo matapos siyang iwan ni Gael. Gael.Hurt raked her chest once again when she remembered her husband. She gripped on her ring finger, the one with the ink on it. Her lips quivered as she recalled every moment she had shared with him for the past 6 weeks. Every kiss. Every fiery night. Every promise. She remembered it all.But now that she was seating in their home—alone, she cannot help but think if any of it were true that Gael was able to give her up just like that.He left her. He left just like that!Tuluyan nang tumulo ang luha niya at niyuko ang kanyang mga kamay.Palagi.She never knew how that word could hurt so much until now.Maiksi lang pala ang pangako ng palagi kay Gael. Hindi nagtatagal. Nang-iiwan. Lumilimot.Few moments more and the front door opened. Iniluwa niyon ang humahangos na bulto ng Mommy at Daddy niya.“Charlie!” mangiyak-ngiy
That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 23: Broken 4
“How are you?” malumanay na tanong ng Daddy niya kay Charlie. Bahagya nang humupa ang bigat at galit na nasa mga mata nito kanina, subalit mababaanag pa rin doon ang bigat ng emosyon. Naroon silang mag-ama sa mini-library ng kanilang penthouse. Kanina pa sila nakaupong dalawa sa magkabilang dulo ng mahabang sofa, tila hindi magkadugo at tila walang balak magkibuan.Gabi na at ilang oras na rin ang lumipas mula nang makauwi si Charlie sa kanila subalit ngayon lang sila nagkaroon ng pagkakataon na mag-usap ng Daddy niya. Not that her father did not insist talking to her earlier habang nagpapahinga siya. But her mother was not having any of her father’s reasons. Ipinagpilitan ng kanyang Mommy na kailangan niya ng pahinga. At sobrang ipinagpapasalamat niya na kahit paano, naiintidihan siya ng Mommy niya. Now that she had collected a little of herself, she had decided to talk to her father. She knew this talk is inevitable. So the sooner she’s done with it, the better.“I’m fine, D-Dad,”
That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 24: The Things She Did
Panay ang hikbi ni Charlie habang nakaupo siya sa waiting area ng Angelicum Hospital. Doon nila dinala ng Mommy niya ang Daddy niya nang makita nila ito kanina sa sahig at pinangangapusan ng hininga.The past half an hour had been a blur. She can only recall the moment Axel and Diego carried her father to the car and the minute she and her mother stepped inside the hospital. All of the moments before, after and in between all of those, she cannot remember.How could she when her heart was heavy with guilt?Muli siyang humikbi at yumuko, mahigpit na pinagsalikop ang mga kamay. Hindi kakayanin ng kunsensiya niya kung sakaling may nangyaring masama sa Daddy niya.Why was she always the cause of all troubles? Was that her punishment for being disobedient? For standing up for herself? For wanting to live her life?Her lips quivered as bitter tears streamed from her eyes. Regrets drowning her once again.Few moments more and she heard rushing footsteps from the hospital’s entrance. She saw

Malakas sa tainga ni Charlie ang tunog ng kung anu-anong monitors na nakakabit sa katawan ng Daddy niya. He was already transferred to the hospital suite. And now that she’s alone there with him, her heart hurts so much knowing that it was her who caused her father to be in that state.She did that to him. Her defiance did that to her father.Her father looks fine now but she will never forget the look in her father’s face as he struggled for air. Her father was dying in front of her and she cannot do anything.Muli siyang humikbi, marahang inabot ang malayang kamay ng Daddy niya. “I-I’m so s-sorry, Dad. I’m so s-sorry,” aniya sa pagitan ng paghikbi.All her life, her father had loved her. He shielded from anything bad, from everything that hurts.Why didn’t she believed him when he said that Gael wasn’t good for her? Why did she welcome Gael into her life again? Why was she so blinded by love?Humagulgol na siya. Questions. There were so many questions. And she doesn’t seem to know h

Charlie felt weak when she woke up the next day. Bumalik din ang pagduduwal niya kaya sinabihan siya ng Mommy niya na umuwi muna upang doon niya ituloy ang pagpapahinga at ipapadala na lang daw nito sa bahay nila ang family doctor nila upang matignan siya.Ayaw niya sana noong una. But her mother insisted that she goes home. Kaya naman napilitan na rin siyang umuwi.When Jacob pulled the car over at the driveway of their home, a nostalgic feeling suddenly enveloped her. She suddenly missed her peaceful yet sad life. Noong hindi pa bumabalik si Gael sa buhay niya. Noong hindi pa siya nagkakamali. Noong maayos pa ang lahat.Matapos siyang salubungin ng mga kasambay, umakyat na siya sa kanyang kuwarto.“Ate?” ani Caleb. She turned and saw her brother in front of his own room. He was wearing his schoolbag.“H-Hi, Cale,” alanganin niyang bati sa kapatid.Ngumiti si Caleb bago walang sabi-sabing siyang niyakap.“Na-miss kita, Ate,” anito.Muling nangilid ang luha niya. How can they be this
That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 26: The Twist Of Fate
“Hindi po talaga nagagawi rito si T’yo, Aling Myrna?” nag-aalalang tanong ni Gael sa dati nilang kapitbahay sa may aplaya. Doon siya dinala ng paghahanap niya sa tiyuhin. Mula nang iwan niya si Charlie sa Antipolo kahapon ay hindi na naalis ang bigat na nasa dibdib niya. He did not just thought of turning the car around once to get Charlie back. But he willed himself not to.Madalas sabihin sa kanya ng T’yo Berting niya noon na ang tamang desisyon ay mahirap gawin. That thought gave him the assurance that he was doing the right thing for his wife. He maybe hurting right now and he knew Charlie too, but in the long run, his decision will both do them good. Minsan nang nailagay sa alanganin ang buhay niya. Hindi na niya hihintayin pa na si Charlie naman ang mapahamak dahil sa pagtatago nila. Isa pa may sakit ito. Ang importante sa kanya sa ngayon ay ang mapagamot ito nang walang inaalalang anumang panganib. That’s why he came home to his unfinished beach house in San Gabriel. Gusto n

“Charlie, will you need me to help you pack your things?” anang Mommy niya kay Charlie. Nakasilip ito sa pinto ng kanyang silid. She gently shook her head and gave her mother a faint smile. “No, Mom. I can manage,” aniya, habang tinitiklop ang ilan pa sa mga gamit na ilalagay niya sa loob ng suitcase niya. Her mother forced a smile. She can clearly see the visible lines of worry on her face. lt has been a tough week for all of them. “Okay, sweetheart. Remember, don't get out of the bed or stand for too long. Kapag kailangan mo ng tulong, just call me, alright?" Marahan siyang tumango. “Yes, Mom.” Isinara ng Mommy niya ang pinto ng kanyang silid. But she was still hearing rushed footsteps as well as hushed and worried conversations from their househelpers outside.Ngayon ang alis nila patungong US. Una, dahil sa kailangang magpagamot ng kanyang Daddy. At pangalawa, para sa kaligtasan nilang lahat. Three days had already passed since Theo almost had his way with her. Her mother a
That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 28: Greeting The Past
Five years later “Are you ready for tomorrow?” malumanay na tanong ng Daddy ni Charlie sa kanya. They were talking via video call and she can clearly see the worried look on her father’s face.“I will be fine, Dad. Besides, this is not the first time that I’ll be negotiating over our… o-our debt,” alanganing niyang sagot. “Yes but this is the first time your Uncle Joshua will not be with you. Do you want me to call your Grandma or your Uncle Kiel para may kasama ka—“ “Dad, ‘di ba nag-usap na tayo,” maagap niyang putol sa ama. “How will I learn if I’d always rely on other people? Besides graduation ni Tala bukas, Uncle Josh will not miss his daughter’s graduation just to help me, would he? Don’t you trust me?” Her father had this conflicted look on his face for a while. “I do. It’s the people you meet I don’t trust.” She smiled, her heart warming up a little. There she was all grown up and currently the interim CEO of SSL and yet her Dad is still protective of her. “Thanks, D
