Chapter 31

I was stunned when I entered Cohen's room. The walls are blue and the ceiling is white. The floor is made of fine and high quality wood so I’m not afraid of Cohen’s feet getting cold every time he walks especially in the morning.There is big aircon, and big windows, but no balcony. It also has its own bathroom and wait, walk in closet? Really? Cohen doesn't seem to need it— and fuck, a built in playroom inside his room ?! This is too much!I went back to her bed and adjusted the comforter because Loren and I were definitely coming, and I wasn't wrong. The door opened and Loren entered carrying her sleeping younger version.Cohen slept in his arms. Probably tired of playing. They bonded with their father all day because Loren did not go to the hospital today. It's just that Iran occasionally calls him for reasons I don't know.By the way, isn't she his girlfriend? Did he tell him that he has a child? Didn’t they fight? Seriously, is she that understanding?I leaned over the bed so he

Chapter 32

"I-It's my father .." I whispered to myself, I looked up at Raegan who was just watching me seriously."It's papa," I told him.He just raised an eyebrow at me as if letting me to patch everything up. My hands trembled as I remembered what had happened before."This is the ... last case that papa handled."Raegan nodded as he folded his arms. "Late prosecutor Galvez was shot in the chest 20 years ago, right before the preliminary trial of the plunder case filed against congressman Lavarias. When the prosecutor in charge was replaced, the final trial did not take place because congressman Lavarias' name was cleared and also- the new prosecutor drops all charges against him. "My lips parted and my vision seemed to blur with the sudden formation of tears in my eyes. I didn’t expect I would know it all in one fell swoop. I am shocked by what I see, I am afraid of what I hear, and my anger overflows for no apparent reason."Tell me, attorney, has the killer of your father been caught?" He

Chapter 33

"Good evening, sir .." I tried to maintain my posture but because of the nerve I'm feeling right now, I just couldn't.Loren's father smiled and glanced at me gently, "Celine .. you can call me dad now, we've met before." He remarked and opened his arms, encouraging me to hug him.I was surprised with the sudden gesture, but I couldn't be more glad that he actually acknowledges me until now. I smiled and hugged him before he looked down at my son who's tugging at the edge of my dress."My grandson,"He smiled wider and crouched a bit to reach Cohen, "Such a handsome kid .. your parents did really good, huh."I almost choked on my own saliva when I heard that and was accompanied by the old man's laughter. I looked at Loren behind Cohen who was just smiling and looking at his father. When he noticed that I was looking, he also turned to me and raised an eyebrow.I quickly averted my gaze and distracted myself by looking around. When dinner was ready, Lea and Sage arrived."You're late,"

"I'm sorry, I was with my family .. yes, yes, you can just update me about the conference tomorrow .. yes, thankyou. Good night, Iran."I averted my eyes and spontaneously tightened my grip on the towel resting on me. Loren dropped the call and went to the drawer on his bed side table and inserted his cellphone there.His eyes came to me again so I stared at him. "Just get out and I'll take a shower." I said. My hair is already wet so the bed and pillow are definitely wet because I slept.He just shrugged and threw his hair back in a swift motion. Damn that. He sat down next to me to my surprise."Let me see,"My forehead furrowed."What the hell? Get out!" I spat. What the fuck is he talking about there ?! What does he think, we're back to normal ?!"Let me see, Celine. It might hurt for longer if I won't check it.""Oh no, I said I'm fine. And I'll take a shower— Fucking shit! Loren!" My eyes widened when he suddenly pulled the towel from my body.My naked body was exposed to him, e

Chapter 35

I finished my job here at the firm early so I thought I'll just fetch Cohen. I grabbed my handbag and said goodbye to Raegan."Hmm." he just nodded like a boss and I just let him. I'm used to his attitude like that.When I arrived at the Therapy Center, Cohen's session was about to end so I just waited outside with some parents."Hi, are you going to pick up Doc's son?"I turned to the woman older than me. She was wearing a long sleeve dress and was quite large in body. Her make up is also thick and her eyebrows are high."Yes." my answer. Maybe Loren is the only doctor with a child here."Oh, so I was right! that's Doc Iran's son! Why did she deny it?" She said frowning at me. I faced her and stared."What?" I could no longer contain the irritation in my voice.She was stunned and forced a smile, "Doc Iran, isn't it? Doc Loren and Iran are the parents of that handsome new boy." She even said that it was like telling me something I didn't know.I couldn’t believe so I looked at her fr

Chapter 36

"This is attorney Felasco, your former professor from Diliman."I blinked and couldn't believe I could talk to him again today."O-oh! Attorney, Oh my god, how are you?" I asked. I went into the room and went to bed."I'm fine .. I'm fine, how about you? I heard your son was shot?" He asked.I nodded, "I'm fine too, Attorney. And yes, but he's recovering now.""Good to hear that, ahm .. I called because I wanted to hand you some things."I frowned and slowly sat down in my bed. "What .. what do you mean?" I asked.He was silent for a moment and I even heard his sigh before answering. "I heard that congressman Lavarias was arrested for plunder and murder .. I have the pieces of evidence for his plunder case."My eyes widened and my chest heaved with excitement. He .. have the evidences? The one I was looking for? But why? Only daddy knows where that is! Unless he stole it from him? But does he know my dad?"I-I don't understand, Attorney, why do you have those?" I asked."Because I was

Epilogue

I automatically lost my focus when I noticed someone from the other table staring at me.From my peripheral vision, I caught her examining my uniform and her mysteriously evident brown eyes darted on my face right after.I'm not usually intimidated with this kind of stares, may it be intentionally or not. But there's just something in her eyes that bothers me as time passes by. I couldn't contain it, I feel so uneasy.I blinked as I force myself to focus on my book, but seconds later, I found myself spacing out while blankly looking at the certain page — absolutely not absorbing anything. With that, I heaved a sigh and decided to close my book and stood up.She's now busy on her laptop. With creased forehead and emphatic closed lips, she got my attention. I quickly wrote a flirting note in a peace of a fucking paper because I don't know what the fuck has gotten into my head. I walked towards her table and shamelessly made my move."Excuse me,""Jesus!" she was obviously startled and t

Keep safe and always remember to put a happy ending in your daily lives.Sincerely,Joji—————6 MONTHS BEFORE THE WEDDINGOh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God!"Mommy! Mommy! Look, daddy's so fast! He's gonna win!" I heard Cohen's excited voice as I shut my eyes hardly. Praying that this would end, that he'd be safe.I've always wanted to watch him compete on the track, but seeing him run his Lamborghini like a flash makes my soul almost want to come out of my body! My knees were shaking as I heard the sound of tires scrambling and people shouting his name."GO ACER !!""SHIT ACER GO FASTER !!! PLEASE FASTER!! FASTER !!""OH MY GOD, THAT'S AWESOME !!! I LOVE YOU ACER !!""ACER! ACER! ACER!""Mommy, who's Acer?" Cohen asked while tugging my left hand. I held his hand tightly while my right hand held the chest of my dress."I-it's your dad, son."
