-=Melchoras's Point of View=-"Caleb, wait for me!" I said when he dashed to the bathroom without waiting for me to finish preparing what he needed."It's all right, pretty auntie," he replied.When I looked at Caleb, I couldn't help but break out into a smile. Ever since I lost Aidan in the accident, I didn't know how I could go on living my life, but because of Caleb, I found a purpose to live and continue with my life after the tragedy that had befallen me.I still feel anguish whenever I think of Aidan, but thanks to Caleb, I was able to survive, and I couldn't even begin to imagine what my life would be like if he weren't in it. Caleb saved my life. I can't thank him enough.When I exited Gabby and Caleb's room, I had no choice but to go past a large mirror, and as soon as I did, I noticed the scar that was located on the left side of my face.Because of my scar, I was unable to continue my modeling career; after all, who would want to hire a model with a face like mine?I made a
-=Jayden's Point of View=-"Sir, you have an appointment with Mr. Cuerva this afternoon."Because I was preoccupied with other things at the time, the words that were spoken to me by my secretary almost did not register in my head. As a result of my distraction, I was unable to hear what she had said."Excuse me, sir?"This time, I was roused from my daydream by a gentle tap on my shoulder.My thoughts had always been clear and organized when it came to my work, but after I met with Gabby, they became a complete mess.I eventually made up my mind to do what I needed to do; I didn't believe I would be able to concentrate on work anyhow, so I told my assistant, "Cancel all my meetings for this afternoon.""But sir..."She gave the impression that she was going to protest, but she ceased doing so as soon as I gave her a stern gaze.She apologized on her way out, and I am confident that she will carry out the instruction I gave her.Since I went to Gabby's house and met her sister Melchor
-=Gabby's Point of View=-"Did we miss anything?" I asked Mel when we finally got the last box inside the condo unit I bought in Makati after we left Davao.The other day, we left Davao because I didn't know if my heart could handle the fear that Jayden might see our son."Don't worry, we didn't miss anything; everything is fine," she said.After hearing her response, I decided to go to Caleb and my room, where I found Caleb busy looking at the pictures in the book he was holding."What is my baby reading?" I asked with a smile. I immediately moved to his side and enfolded my arm around his small shoulder."Dinosaurs," he answered while pointing to the picture. I decided to spend time with Caleb, but around one in the afternoon, I decided to get ready for my interview with Regina's employer.I already resigned from my previous job, so as of the moment, I am jobless, and I cannot afford to be jobless for a long time, so I was hoping I could impress Regina's employer and get hired by hi
-=Gabby's Point of View=-I have been staring in the same spot for almost five minutes, which I frequently do now.Regina was with me in my room, and we decided to spend some quality time.It has been almost three weeks now since we left Davao, just to avoid Jayden, and even now, I still couldn't help but feel scared when I thought that if Jayden really wanted to know even little details in someone else's life, he could do that without lifting a finger.If that happened, then it was only a matter of time until he learned that I gave birth to Caleb, and with just one look, one could tell who is Caleb's biological father."Earth to Gabby," I was taken aback when someone flicked their fingers over my forehead, which is why I instantly looked at the person sitting next to me."Sorry, what did you say again?" I asked, and I saw her shaking her head because of my spacing out."Why don't you give Brian a chance? This was the first time I saw him really like a girl, and he seemed serious abou
-=Gabby's Point of View=-"Mom, let's go," Caleb told me.It was a Saturday, and I decided to spend some quality time with Caleb and Mel.As per Caleb's request, we also brought Brian with us, who by the way, for the past two months didn't stop courting me, even after I told even him that he just wasting his time since my focus was on my family.Most of the time when our family went out to bond, Brian was always there, and I could see that Caleb was getting attached to him. It was like he was seeing Brian as a father figure, and I couldn't blame him.I could see that Brian really likes my son; he really cares about him, not just because he's courting me but because he really does care about Caleb, and I am thankful for that.I didn't realize the smile on my lips as I continued to watch Caleb run towards Brian, but I could see such happiness on my son's face because of my employer.When Brian learned that we were going out, he invited us to go to the amusement park in Laguna, and when
-=Gabby's Point of View=-"Have you seen this kid?"I continued to ask everyone I encountered the same question, only to receive the same response each time.No one knew or saw my son, and it's been days since I began lurking on the street and asking other people if they had seen him.As a mother, I cannot sit idly by while my cherished son stays missing. Many thoughts passed through my head, particularly when I was alone, and none were reassuring.Since Caleb was kidnapped, it has been about a week, and the fact that I haven't been able to see my baby in all of these days is mentally and emotionally torturous.People who were close to me kept assuring me that everything was going to be fine, but I couldn't see how that could be the case as long as my son was still missing.The heels of my shoes are nearly worn out from all the walking I did; I needed to be able to cover a large area by asking people whether they had seen my son.I was aware that the police were conducting the investi
-=Gabby's Point of View=-Even though he did not speak, I could tell from the way his chest moved that he was fuming mad, and in addition to that, I could sense a sinister aura emanating from him.If Caleb hadn't been kidnapped, then he would still be in the dark about the truth, and I couldn't blame him if he got mad when he found out that we have a son.He has every reason to be angry with me, and even though I deeply regret what I did, it is too late to take back my actions. Nevertheless, I am willing to take any punishment he decides to impose on me so long as he saves our son from harm.When he abruptly stepped on the brake, I was jolted awake from my dazed state, and when I peered outside, I realized that we had arrived at Jayden's place.Since I didn't bother to glance outside while we were driving, I have no idea exactly where we are because the entire estate is encircled by a variety of trees and plants.As soon as the vehicle came to a stop, Jayden got out of the driver's se
-=Jayden's Point of View=-"Please, Jayden, I beseech you, do not do this to me; do not take Caleb from me!"After learning the truth from her, my mental state is in such a state of disarray that I couldn't be bothered to listen to her pleas.I decided to ignore her repeated calls for my name; I hold her responsible for our son's abduction; if she hadn't concealed the truth from me, none of this would have happened; I could have protected our son, if only he trusted me; if only...I smiled bitterly when I remembered that I almost proposed to her. Back when I asked her to come with me to Norway, I planned to propose to her and marry her in Norway.Now I understand why she made the decision to leave me, and it was simply because she was terrified that I would take Caleb away from her.Although it pains me to confess it, I am still in agony as a result of what took place; yet, the fury that I felt and the concern that I had for my son overpowered the pain that I felt.I was infuriated be
