I was so drained after the interview. I feel like my brain was completely squeezed dry. I’m not used to being interviewed, but in order to disprove Engr. Aragon's claims, I had to do it.

"You did well," Dad said. He was here the entire time, reminding me that everything is going to be okay. Even some of our employees were here, giving me the support I badly needed now.

All I wanted now was to go home and rest. I wasn’t able to get proper rest before the interview. I was so anxious and even had trouble sleeping. So many scenarios kept running through my head.

I just wanted to spend the day with my kids. I felt like I haven’t been with them that much lately. And they grow up so fast.

"You owe yourself a good rest," Dad said. He probably saw the exhaustion on my face. "Just go home for now. I’ll take care of everything here. I’ll keep coordinating with the lawyer, so don’t stress yourself too much about this."

But no matter what I do, I can’t get it out of my mind. Our company and the li

  • One Week Stand   Chapter 126

    When you’re going through something, it feels like you are being tested in everything. Especially when so much depends on you. You begin to realize a lot of things, the big and small. You get to know yourself more, and you also discover who among your people are willing to help and stay with you during difficult times.Dad stayed with me during the interview and even helped brainstorm so we could get through this hurdle.Mommy Emily would always text or call me to remind me that I’m a great leader and a Mom. She always tells me that I’m good at both. She doesn’t know it, but her words really inspire me.Daisy and Dominic also visit and check up on me often. Daisy always says she’s just one call away. If I need a backup, she’d fly over to me immediately. Dom has been just as supportive—. He said he’ll try his best to help with whatever I need. Even Thaniel contacted me several times and offered help.And of course, Zandrey. He’s been an exceptional father and partner. Even though he’s

    My head was throbbing by the time the meeting ended. I could feel the anger radiating from my employees. It wasn’t enough that he harassed some of his coworkers, now he had to go and insult the entire company too.We’re not as big as other firms, yes. But we deliver good projects and have a decent number of clients. Many trust us. We have clients who keep coming back to us for their building plans, and I take pride in that.Everyone left on our team now is someone I trust. We no longer have room for people who only bring us headaches. We make sure to do our jobs well, and in return, management makes sure everyone is well-paid, appreciated, and protected.That’s why my head hurts so badly right now. I can feel the anger and concern from my people because of what Engr. Aragon did. We made plans on how we would counter those claims, and what else we should do next. Everyone pitched in ideas on how we can fix this.After that meeting came another, just between me and my dad. He was suppos

    He just stared at me when I said those words, like he couldn’t believe I actually said it. And suddenly, I didn’t know what to say or do next. I didn’t grow up in an affectionate household, so I grew up not really knowing how to show what I truly feel.But with him, every day, he teaches me not to be afraid of what I feel. He taught me to face what’s right in front of me. And right now, it’s him in front of me.It’s him I want to be with forever.“I know I made you wait for quite a while,” I began. Honestly, I didn’t know what to say. I just let the words flow out of my mouth.I held his face, still close to mine.I didn’t plan for this to be tonight. I’m not deciding just because he pleasured me. I know I said I wasn’t ready, but sometimes it’s not about time - it’s about the moment.It’s a moment like this where we get to be alone together. Just the two of us, where I can be completely myself. Where I’m free to show my vulnerability.We stared at each other for what felt like foreve

    I still don’t have an answer for Zandrey. I know the time he gave me is already quite long, but I’m just not ready to answer yet. There are still things I need to think about and consider. I don’t want to give an answer I’m not sure about. He deserves a firm answer from me. I just really need a little more time.But on the other side of my mind, I’m also afraid that he might get tired of waiting. I don’t want that to happen.It was already late in the evening. The kids were already asleep and in the other room. I was the only one still awake because I was finishing some work."Hi," Zandrey greeted as he entered the room. He had just come from work and had been at the hospital all day."Hey," I replied.I felt him kiss the top of my head before heading straight to the bathroom to shower.I tried not to be distracted by his presence. I needed to finish my work because I was going to accompany Andrei to school tomorrow. They have an event, and I wanted to be there. They’re going to perfo

    "Will you marry me?"When I got pregnant with the twins, I never thought about being with anyone. In my mind, I was fine being alone. I had the twins, so I didn’t really feel the need to be with any guy at all.I also felt a lot of anger and hurt towards Zandrey. I had never fallen in love with anyone before him. Sometimes, people around me thought I was heartless because I never really liked anyone. That’s why I felt so betrayed by Zandrey when he left, especially after making me fall for him. He made it so easy for me to fall for him, and made me do things I don’t usually do with other people.After finding out I was pregnant, I promised myself I wouldn’t let any man back into my life. Because all they bring is pain.I never thought anyone would pop that question to me because I didn’t feel like I was wife material or even girlfriend material. I’m not like other girls who would check the ring first.Hearing that question from Zandrey almost made me stop functioning. My gaze was fixe
