All Chapters of Raising The Billionaire's Child: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"Mommy." Lumapit sa kanya si Elisha but her eyes were fixed on Olive. Napatingin siya kay Olive. Her friend was surprised, stunned even. Then she smiled at Elisha with tears in her eyes when she realized who the little girl was. "Hi," Olive said. "Elisha," sabi niya. But it was more to remind Olive of her daughter's name. "I'm sorry, baby." Binuhat niya ito at iniupo sa kandungan niya, directly facing Olive. "Ang laki na niya," ani Olive na umiiyak. "Go ahead, Liv. You can hug her." She smiled kahit sa puso niya ayaw niya sa tagpong iyon. What if Olive changes her mind tapos kunin na nito si Elisha? Makakaya niya ba iyon? "Hi, Elisha!" Olive didn't move. "I'm Tita Olive." Hindi malaman ni Hannah kung matutuwa siya sa pakilala nitong Tita Olive. At least she spared her the trouble of telling the young fellow about her real mother at the mo

Malaki ang subdivision na kinaroroonan ng bahay ni Nate. Pero hindi naman siya nahirapang makapasok dahil mukhang naibilin na sa security ang pagdating niya. Actually pinababa na siya sa gate dahil may susundo raw sa kanya. Bawat minutong naghihintay siya ay parang binibiyak ang puso niya. Natatakot siya para kay Elisha. Kasama nito ang lalaking nagtangkang patayin ito while she was yet a fetus. Anong dahilan ng biglang pagiging interesado nitong maging ama sa bata? And he was even so sure that she was his daughter! "Ms. Hannah Rodriguez?" a black car pulled over in front of her. Bumaba ang driver no'n nang tumango siya. "Mr Sarmiento is expecting you," dagdag nito na ipinagbukas siya ng pintuan ng sasakyan. She murmured a 'thank you' bago sumakay sa magandang kotse ni Nate

Moving in with Nate Sarmiento never crossed her mind in the slightest. How could she if she despised the man for treating both Olive and Elisha heartlessly? Kadarating lang nila sa bahay ng binata. Napansin niya na madami itong tao at puro pormal ang mga itsura. Mula sa mga gwardiya hanggang sa mga katulong ay parang mga empleyado ng hotel. Well, bahay nga pala iyon ng isang hotelier... "Let me get this clear with you," Nate said once Elisha was out of earshot. "You will resign from your work and be full time in watching my daughter." "But—" "I'll pay you, of course," he added insultingly, like napaka-importante no'n sa kanya. "I just don't want Elisha to think that I'm not treating her 'mommy' well." "I do plan to tell Elisha  –and I've already told Olive– that I am not her mother. But not until she can already understand." "That's actually my plan, Hannah. You're coming with us just so you can have enough time to break it

Nate was indeed a very busy man. But he made it a point to drive Hannah and Elisha to school everyday -at least for already three days straight. And it should have been a good thing. But Hannah hurts every time she sees how happy Elisha was with Nate's company.How did that happen? She never mentioned the word daddy to her so she wouldn't look for one. And Elisha never asked her about her father. Akala niya nagtagumpay na siyang burahin ang ano mang magkokonekta dito sa tunay nitong mga magulang, to Nate in particular. Pero heto, a little over a week pa lang since Nate came into Elisha's life and yet parang forever na silang magkakilala. Elisha loves her daddy so much it already hurts. Dahil alam ni Hannah that when she gets that chance na ilayo si Elisha - mahihirapan na siyang burahin si Nate sa buhay nito, If she ever gets that chance in the first place…  Hannah always gets the backseat dahil gustong gusto ni Elisha sa passenger seat. She loves pestering h

Because Nate was carrying Elisha on his shoulders, na-obliga itong pumila sa counter habang sinusubukang intindihin kung nasaan ang mga itinuturo ng anak nito.  Si Hannah naman ang naghanap ng mauupuan nila. Nang makahanap siya ng pwesto, naupo na siya at pinagmasdan sina Nate at Elisha.  The latter was a picture of a happy kid. Nate on the other hand was a picture of a loving father.  Before she knew it, a smile already crept across her face. Hindi maikakaila ni Nate na anak nito si Elisha. Tama si Olive, female version ni Nate ang bata. She noticed a few people already recognized Nate Sarmiento as they began taking pictures of him in not so secret way. She knew that he knew and he didn't do anything about it. So hinayaan na lang din niya.  After all, kahit hindi pa pinapakilala ni Nate sa publiko si Elisha, hindi naman nito itinatago ang anak nito.  Nevertheless, she saw Paul and the other escorts stopping the crowd from
