Charlene’s POV

Days turned into weeks… and weeks into almost a month.

We still hadn’t returned to the Philippines. It was better for Kerill to continue his treatment here in Korea. The kids had already gone back—they were staying with their grandparents for now since they had school to attend to.

After several treatments, there were small improvements.

He secured a future not only for his children, but for Charlene as well.Then came something unexpected.Just a few months before Kerill passed, Charlene discovered she was already two months pregnant. She hadn’t noticed it at all—no morning sickness, no obvious signs. She only found out during a check-up when she wasn’t feeling well.At that moment, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.She was happy—because she was finally going to have a child of her own.But at the

The kids had already gone back—they were staying with their grandparents for now since they had school to attend to.After several treatments, there were small improvements.Little by little, strength returned to his legs. He could eat—at least, a little. His body was still fighting, even though I knew how exhausted it already was.For now, he had entrusted the company to Black while he focused on getting better.“Ahh…” I lifted a spoonful of food toward him, but he shook his head.“Please… you need to eat,” I pleaded again and again.Even if I didn’t say it out loud, it was obvious—he had lost so much weight. He wasn’t the strong man he used to be.And it was because he kept throwing up.Every time I saw the reddish rashes spreading across his arms and neck, all I could do was take a deep breath and hold m

    Charlene’s POVThey knew.The kids knew.And I was the only one left in the dark.The realization hit me so hard I felt like I couldn’t breathe—like I might collapse from the weight of it all.“Lily found the medical records in his room… then she showed them to Wyl and Wency… and eventually to me,” Ericka said, her voice trembling. “We’ve known for a while now, Charlene. That’s why we’ve been trying so hard to make him happy… b-because… b-because—”She couldn’t finish.I pulled her into my arms. I knew she’d been holding it in for too long. The moment I held her, she broke—crying against my chest, gripping me tightly like she was afraid to fall apart if she let go.Tears streamed down my face as I listened to her sob.If this hurt me… I couldn’t even begin to imagine how much more it hurt them.“Charlene… I’m scared…”I kissed her forehead and held her tighter. “Shhh… your dad is strong. He’s going to fight this. We’ll get him treatment. We’ll finish this trip… we’ll travel the world

  • MOMMY FOR HIRE: BREAKING THE CEO'S WALL [ ENGLISH ]    Chapter 47

    Charlene’s POVHappiness always comes with a price. I knew it, yet I had hoped… just this once, I wanted it to last—pure, endless joy.Morning came, and I woke before Kerill. Through the floor-to-ceiling glass of our room, I thought it was raining… but no. Snow. My heart leapt.It was my first time seeing snow. I rushed back to wake Kerill, who was still deep in sleep.“Adi, wake up!” I whispered, hugging him, shaking him gently. When he didn’t move, I pressed a soft kiss to his lips—and he startled, then hugged me back, returning the kiss.“Good morning, Adi,” he said with that mischievous smile. I tapped him. “Snow! Outside!” I practically squealed.“Yeah, I know. First snow of the year,” he replied, stretching lazily.I pulled him out of bed, dragging him to the window. Together, we watched the snow slowly cover the yard.Later, after breakfast, we went outside. Kerill cooked while I couldn’t take my eyes off the white wonderland.“Can we play, Daddy?” Lily asked eagerly.“Sure, bu

    Charlene’s POVThe judge’s words echoed in the room: Kerill had won. Full custody of Lily, Ericka, Wency, and Wyl was now his. The mother would only have limited visitation, carefully supervised for the kids’ well-being.I wrapped my arms around him without thinking. Tears slipped down my cheeks—not from sadness, but from relief and happiness. He’d finally achieved what he fought so hard for.“Thank you… thank you so much,” he whispered, burying his face in my shoulder. I held him tighter, feeling the weight of everything we’d been through.“Congratulations,” I murmured.He kissed me softly, then turned to the children, gathering them into his arms. Seeing his face light up with joy, seeing him so proud—it was a moment I would never forget.And yet, a small thought lingered in my mind: with custody settled, the contract was over. I was free.“Tita Charlene!” Lily’s voice brought me back.I went to her, hugging all the children in a big embrace. I loved them more than anything, and I d

    Charlene’s POVKerill and I stayed in his room the entire night.He held me so tightly—as if even the smallest movement, even just turning away, might make me disappear. Every time I shifted, his arms would only tighten around me.And strangely… I liked it.I liked how we clung to each other. How neither of us wanted to let go, no matter what.My thoughts drifted endlessly that night… until I eventually fell asleep without realizing it.When I woke up, he was already there, watching me. His gaze was soft, almost as if he were quietly studying every detail of my face.“Good morning, Adi,” he said with a smile.I frowned slightly. “Adi?”“Yes,” he answered gently. “I want to call you that. It means a blessing from the Lord. Because that’s what you are to me. You were given to me… and I’ll always be grateful for that. I love you, Adi.”He leaned down and kissed my forehead. I closed my eyes, letting the warmth of it sink in.“I love you too,” I murmured, smiling faintly.A moment later,

    The next morning, I picked up the kids from school. I didn’t have anything planned, and I knew that they’d be out early, especially the elementary students. When I spotted Lily, her face lit up as soon as she saw me. I couldn’t help but feel my heart soften as I watched her run toward me, that big

    The moment I stepped into my room, I dropped onto the bed, forcing myself to stay quiet. God, I’m being so dramatic. Why does it feel like getting hurt is the end of the world? So what if he doesn’t like me? So what if he never will? Am I really going to die because of it?I wanted to believe that—

    I woke up with sunlight warming my skin.As soon as I opened my eyes, confusion settled in. I was lying in a room I didn’t recognize—somewhere completely unfamiliar.Where am I?How did I end up here?I shook my head, forcing myself to remember what happened the night before. Then, one by one, the

    Charlene’s POVSince Monica left, the house has grown even quieter. You know that kind of silence—the kind that feels lifeless, as if someone who once belonged to the walls themselves has suddenly vanished.Hours had already passed since she walked out, yet something still weighed heavily on Kerill
