CHAPTER 81

After their duty, Clarisa and Rose went home together to the apartment. They lived in the same house to save money. They had been renting it for a long time; it was originally Clarisa and Rose's house, but when Rose returned, she took in a roommate so she wouldn’t be alone and could save money.Now that Clarisa was back in America and living with Rose’s mother, Tita Grace, they were three living in the apartment. Rose was planning to get a house because she wanted to settle down with her mother. As for Clarisa, she was still thinking it over; deep in her heart, she knew she would eventually return to the Philippines... she just didn’t know when."Wow, Mom! It smells so good, what are you cooking?" Rose exclaimed as they opened the door. The delicious aroma of adobo filled the air."You've both arrived! Come on, let’s eat," Tita Grace said. She treated Clarisa like a daughter, just as Clarisa's parents treated Rose like their own child. They placed their bags on the sofa and approached

REED:He is just in his room, hardly leaving the house. His mustache and beard have grown long; he is starting to look like a hermit.

Even his friend Jon has been unable to find her.His grandfather, Lolo Miguel, is also getting weaker. He no longer has the desire to manage the mango orchard because he has no one he can trust there. He only trusts Nanay Celia and Tatay Kardo, but they too have disappeared along with his wife.Blue is growing up fast; he is almost three years old. As he grows, he is starting to resemble Reed—unlike Kiel, with whom he cannot see any resemblance.Diana still lives in her condo.

CHAPTER 83

At the Airport Sir Albert and Tita Grace were already at the airport. Tita Grace had joined him for a vacation at the hacienda. Albert didn’t seem too thrilled about Tita Grace accompanying them on the trip, but she was grateful for it, as it meant he wouldn’t pester her. Her parents would pick Tita Grace up at the airport. She wouldn’t be joining them for their convention, which was good because it allowed her to spend time with her parents. After the convention, she would go home to the hacienda. Her parents had already bought a vehicle. They had purchased a new Fortuner to ensure she would be comfortable during their vacation there. They had also bought trucks and machinery for their rice and coconut plantation at the hacienda. Her parents were really good at managing money; in just a short time, they had accumulated a lot for the hacienda. While at the airport, she sat next to Tita Grace. Albert was supposed to sit beside her, but Tita Grace had asked to switch seats with Alb

CHAPTER 84

“How are you, my child?” her mother asked as they walked around the mall.“I’m fine, Nay…”“D-did you hear anything about Reed and your child, Blue?” her mother inquired.“I haven’t heard anything, Nay. But I plan to call Maria; I’ll ask her to meet us with my child.”“Won’t Reed get angry?” her mother asked anxiously.“I won’t take Blue away, Nay. I just want to see my child so he can know me as his mother.”“It’s up to you, my child, but be careful…”“Yes, Nay…”After they finished shopping, they ate at a restaurant before her parents returned to Quezon with Tita Grace. She would only go back there after her convention ended.She and Albert returned to the hotel. While they were in the elevator, he teased her again.“Why don’t you marry me, Clarisa, so you can bring your parents to America? Your life will be better there!”She wanted to tell him that she wasn’t interested in his wealth and that her parents weren’t dazzled by luxury. Even when she was married to Reed, he never asked

CHAPTER 85

She had just finished getting dressed when someone knocked on her door. It must be Albert. They startled each other when she opened the door."You look stunning, honey...""Hmph, flatterer... Let's go before we're late.""Let's go..." he replied, holding her arm. She wanted to shake him off, but she was afraid he might get mad and say she was being difficult. Lately, he had been getting touchy with her. She didn't want anyone touching her, especially not a man. She still had a phobia of men, probably because of Fernando, who almost raped her.When they arrived, there were already a lot of people in the convention hall where their convention would be held. Albert stuck closer to her, holding her at the waist. He was acting like a boyfriend. She was annoyed, but there were media people around, and she didn't want to embarrass Albert."Good morning, Dr. Smith! Can we interview you?" a reporter asked Albert."Sure! Sure!" he replied, smiling. She didn’t want to join in, but he tightened h

CHAPTER 86

“Dad, where's Mom?” Blue greeted him, waiting for him at the gate of their house with Maria.“Sorry, son, Mom is still at work, so she can't come home yet. But I promise you I will bring her here, okay? Don't be sad…”“Promise?” he asked sadly.“Y-yes, son…” Even he was unsure of his answer. He didn't know if he could keep the promise to his child. But he didn’t want to see his son sad. Blue had been waiting a long time for his mommy. He hoped that Clarisa would at least think of them too.“Let’s go inside…” he said, taking the child's hand. They walked into the house in silence. Blue still looked sad. He felt helpless to cheer him up; only his mommy could make him happy that day.As soon as they entered the house, the phone rang.“Maria, please answer it,” he instructed Maria, suspecting it was another prank caller who never spoke whenever he answered.Maria quickly walked over to the phone to answer it.“Hello?”“Maria, this is Clarisa.”“Ma’am!!!” Maria exclaimed in surprise.“Don’

CHAPTER 87

He spent the whole day at home. Maybe once he left, Blue and Ate Maria would leave too.He shouldn’t lose sight of the two of them. He couldn’t let them slip away.It was nearly five o’clock. He saw Maria talking on the phone earlier, but he didn’t ask any questions. He pretended he hadn’t noticed. He knew it was Clarisa. She must have told her where they would meet.Blue and Maria were still in the room. She was dressing the child. They were probably getting ready to leave. Maria had already informed the driver to take them later. He didn’t want to get involved in their plans; he had his own plans.He just wanted Maria and Blue to leave peacefully to meet Clarisa, and then he would show up.As soon as Maria and Blue came out of the room, Blue approached him to say goodbye.“Daddy, we’re just going to meet Mommy, okay?” his son said, holding a bouquet of roses. He had asked his yaya to buy it earlier to give to his mommy.“Aren’t you going to come with us?”“Maybe next time, son…”“O

CHAPTER 88

“Daddy!!!” Blue shouted as he broke free from her and ran to his father, asking to be carried.“Daddy, look! Mommy is already here!” Blue exclaimed, pointing at her.“I can see that, son…” he replied softly, his gaze never leaving her. She remained with her head down.“Maria…” she turned to the nanny. “Didn’t I say it should just be us?” she whispered.“Yes, Ma'am... I didn’t know Sir would follow us,” the nanny replied, looking a bit nervous. She hadn’t expected to see Reed there.“It’s not Maria’s fault, sweetheart. Don’t blame her,” Reed said, having overheard their conversation.“Daddy, let’s sit here next to Mommy,” their son said, still in Reed’s arms. The table was quiet, with no one wanting to break the silence. They were all just feeling each other out.“Um, I’ll leave you two for a moment, Ma'am Clarisa, Sir Reed,” Maria said, standing up. She didn’t wait for their response, not wanting to interrupt but wanting to give them time alone as a couple.“How have you been? You loo

CHAPTER 89

“Hey, honey!”Their attention turned to the person speaking behind them. It was Albert. She suddenly frowned. Why was he here again?He had followed her despite her telling him not to. He was so annoying... it was irritating!And he even called her honey in front of her child and Reed! She shot Reed a glance, and his jaw tightened upon seeing the man.“Who is he, Mommy?” Blue asked, frowning.“Mommy? You call her Mommy?” Albert said in surprise at what he heard from Blue.“Who are they, honey?” Albert asked her.“Don’t call me honey, Albert! How many times do I have to tell you?” she replied firmly.“Who are they?” he asked her again.“T-this is my baby Blue and my ex-husband…” she introduced, not wanting to explain further. But she knew Albert well. He was persistent and wouldn’t let her go. She also didn’t want to deny her husband and child in front of him.“Husband... not ex-husband!” Reed corrected her. She just raised an eyebrow at him.“Are you the one who was with my mommy on T

CHAPTER 90

REED:His jaw tightened as he watched his wife with another man holding her. He wanted to run over and punch him... No one could take his wife away!“Daddy? Is he Mommy's boyfriend?”“No, sweetheart... didn’t Mommy say he’s not her boyfriend?”“Why didn’t you kiss Mommy earlier? Are you two fighting?” Blue asked him. He never thought his child would be so observant at such a young age.“Mommy is a little upset with me, sweetheart... because Daddy did some bad things in the past... but Daddy won’t do them again...”“You should say sorry to Mommy, then!” his child insisted.“Okay, sweetheart, I will do that, but you have to help Daddy!”“How?”“Convince your Mommy to come back home and live with us, and not go back to America...”“She’s going back to America? She’s going to leave us again?”“Yes, so you need to make her promise not to leave... you’re the only one who can stop her. She loves you so much that she can’t say no to you.”“Okay, Daddy, I’ll do what you want as long as Mommy d
