"That was emotional. I'm so happy for you guys." Madiana told her Boss with a sad smile on her face.
She had accompanied him to the board meeting at his father's company. Lawrence was a partner there so his presence was required and he took Maddie along.
After their meeting in the conference room, Liam, Lawrence's father had invited Lawrence into his office while Maddie waited for him outside the office.
Both father and son resolved their differences. Not like they actually fought, but Lawrence was very close to every member of his family. They all felt it during the past few days when he distanced himself from them.
Lawrence explained the whole situation to his father. Liam comforted his son and gave him the advice he needed and also made it known that he was looking forward to meeting his grandson.
And Lawrence promised that he and Luis would be there at the next family dinner.
Madiana did not mean to eavesdrop. The two men were just loud
THE FAMILY DINNERLawrence spent Saturday doing some work. He also spent some quality time with Luis, his son.When it was almost evening, he began preparing for their dinner which was to take place at his parents' mansion. He still had to pick Maddie on his way. So Lawrence dressed up in something casual, he arranged Luis's baby bag and got him ready.When Lawrence got to Maddie's apartment, He couldn't go down to knock on her door because Luis was sleeping in his car seat. He couldn't leave him alone in the car.So he called Maddie on the phone saying that they were already outside.Once he saw her walk out of her apartment and approach his car, Lawrence got down and assisted her in opening the door to the front passenger's seat.She blushed a little, thanking him and once She was settled, he went back to the driver's seat."You look beautiful, Maddie. I think black colors fit you best, ''he said."Thanks, Mr. Williams.
DAYS LATERMadiana was engrossed with the work she was doing on her laptop. She was distracted when there was a knock on the door.She looked up and saw it was her Boss, Lawrence.He came in and took a seat opposite her."I have to leave for Luis's Doctor's appointment. I will be back as soon as I can.""No problem." She replied and before she could say anything else, they were both interrupted by the door opening and someone entering.It was Ethan. He was holding a gift bag."Hi, buddy." He greeted Lawrence as he took a seat beside him."And here's for the birthday girl," Ethan placed the gift bag on the table and pushed it towards Madiana."It's your birthday?" Lawrence asked, shocked.She nodded."Why didn't you tell me?" He asked slightly upset, which made Maddie nervous."Calm down dude. Do you expect her to start announcing it to everybody?" Ethan chuckled. He could sense that his best friend w
Madiana slept and woke up with a smile on her face. In all her 25 years of existence, yesterday was the best birthday she ever had. All thanks to Lawrence, her Boss, her Boyfriend.Yes, she had said yes to him. She liked Lawrence since the first day she set her eyes on his picture. That was even before she got the job as his secretary.The last time Madiana dated someone was in College. But she swore that this time around, it was going to be different. She liked Lawrence a lot and she would do all that it took to make him happy and Luis also.Madiana got up from her bed and proceeded to the bathroom to do her morning rituals. She got dressed in a black pencil skirt and a white button-up shirt. She applied some makeup, slipped her feet into her heels, and grabbed her handbag and car keys.She rarely eats breakfast except during the weekend. She hoped Alice, Ethan's Secretary would grab a coffee for her today like always.Madiana got out of the eleva
THREE MONTHS AND SOME WEEKS LATER"Maybe I should just cancel the whole thing," Lawrence said. The thought of not seeing Maddie and Luis for a few days was making him go crazy."You should go, honey. We will be fine." Madiana assured as she placed Luis on her chest. The little boy was playing with her hair, trying to put it in his mouth but she was preventing him from doing so.Lawrence was to go on a trip to Paris for some business deal. He was representing his father's company since he was a partner there.When his father informed him about the trip, he was reluctant to go, telling his father to go himself or appoint someone else to represent the company.His father, Liam, chuckled at his reply because he knew his son was reluctant to go because he didn't want to leave Madiana and Luis behind.But he had no choice because this deal was a very important one and he only trusts his son to make the best of it. Besides, he will only be gone for
Madiana tried her best to stay awake but she failed miserably.Lawrence had called her early this morning to inform her that he would be returning today but it would be later at night.So she had spent her day with Luis. She took him to the mall and when it was noon, they went to the park together.It was just a few minutes to 10 pm and she had slept off..................................Lawrence could not wait to see Luis and Maddie. He had missed them like crazy. He did all he could to rush the deal so he would be back home tonight instead of tomorrow, Monday.He took a taxi from the airport. It was already late and he didn't want to disturb Dominic, his driver.He paid the Taxi man and proceeded to the apartment with his suitcase. He had his spare key so he didn't bother to press the doorbell. He entered inside and his heart melted at what he saw.Madiana had fallen asleep on the sofa in the living room. The TV was still on
FOUR YEARS LATEREPILOGUELawrence and Madiana's marriage faced trials but their love was able to overcome all obstacles.Some days after Madiana found out she was pregnant, She went for a check-up which revealed she was almost two months pregnant, and in seven months, she gave birth to a baby girl. She was called Luisa Irene Williams. 5 pounds, 6ounces.Luisa's birth brought so much joy to both the extended and immediate family.Lawrence had to find a temporary secretary to fill in for Madiana.Lawrence also spent more time working from home so he could assist Maddie with the kids and be closer to his family.Oh, their wedding! They did it a month after he proposed. It was a very beautiful one.Lawrence and Madiana never saw the need to hire a live-in nanny because Maddie and Lawrence's mother were there to help and they still had Luis's nanny, Kelly.Again they had help from Omo, Lenora, and Luciana. Even Lucas was of
Connected by heart.Synopsis.They have always been secret admirers since the first day their path crossed. It took the two of them just one night to confess their feelings to each other, after which they decided to quench their sexual thirst, creating a bond that binds them forever..............."Look at me, Gabriela. Why have you been avoiding me?" Terrence asked her with his eyes showing so many emotions that Gabby couldn't even take in at once.Even though Terrence was the one hosting the office party, he had found a way to ditch the party as he told his best friend, Ian, to help take over. Ian, knowing the reason why, gladly decided to cover up for him and all.The truth was that Terrence had a thing for Gabriela since the first day he saw her and that was the day she set her foot in his company which was two months ago and since then, he couldn't stop thinking about her. Her face was all he could see in his dreams for the p
"Hmmm, p..lea..se exc..use me." Gabby managed to say as she quickly stood up from the dining table and ran off to Terrence's room which unshed tears.Immediately she shut the door behind her, she fell on the floor and let the tears fall. "How could I be so stupid? How could I let history repeat itself? How could I let myself be used by another man?" She cried.After what seemed like hours, Gabby managed to grab herself from the floor, proceeded to the bathroom to splash water on her face after which she changed her clothe from Terrence's shirt which she was putting on to the dress she wore the previous night.After getting all dressed up, Gabby decided she wasn't ready to face Terrence and his daughter and most importantly the Beautiful lady whom she assumed was Terrence's Wife. Thinking of another way to escape, She finally found another exit beside the guest room. She got out of Terrence's house, hailed a Taxi, and headed home..

Lawrence was able to get so much work done while Madiana watched Luis and did her work at the same time. He admired her for being an expert in multitasking.When lunchtime came, she still insisted on being with Luis. Saying the little boy was keeping her company. So Alice, Ethan's secretary, brought Lunch to Maddie in her office and they spent lunch together with the two ladies gushing over baby Luis...........................Lawrence sighed as he plopped down on the couch in his living room. He had just put Luis to bed. Since Luis was now in the picture and he cared so much for his son, he had to vacate work early, unlike those days where he would stay in his office and work till almost midnight.Being a single parent was really hard. Especially when he never saw it coming and had no time to prepare.Lawrence remembered Ava today when he was getting Luis ready for bed. He wondered what it would have been like if Luis had his mom around.L
Madiana groaned as she heard the sound of her alarm. She reluctantly sat up and quickly said her morning prayers, committing the day to God's hands. After that, she stood up from her bed and arranged it before heading to the bathroom to get ready for the day.She eventually decided to wear a black dress and moved to the mirror side to apply her makeup.She smiled at herself in the mirror as she was satisfied with her look. She then walked towards her bedside, sat on the edge as she slipped on her heels.Maddie reached for her handbag, laptop bag and car keys and found her way to the exit.Madiana arrived at the office earlier than expected because there was less traffic on the road. She entered the office building then proceeded to the fifth floor. That was where her office was. Well, The Bosses and Secretaries office was located on the fifth floor of the building.Madiana entered her office and saw a cup of coffee on her table. She smiled at that.
