Ten: Is past really important?
Before I went home, I prepared myself for my brother’s lecture, but I still couldn’t help but get bored. I know I did not do well, but all of that has a purpose. That thing can’t define what I exactly did!
“Quit it, alright? Quit that job!”I quickly followed my brother, who was about to walk out. It’s good that Jacques is busy playing with the nanny, so he won’t pay attention to our fight. “You’re unreasonable!” I shouted back at him. I will not allow him to stop me now. I just want everything to end up with nothing. Also, we don’t have any choice. What are we going to present to the public then? “You’re the one who’s being unreasonable! You are doing too much for that man, Av. There are more–” “Why can’t you understand the fuck out of me?” I couldn’t help but get angry.Bab terkait
Reportedly Dating Eleven: Meet his parents
I simply took off the sunglasses I was wearing. I focused at the door, looking for Cormac Carter’s parents, who have just arrived from their scheduled flight. That’s the only door they can go out to, so I can’t take my eyes off it. “Cindy, are you okay?” I immediately turned to one of the staff who was with me. I know this might be a lame plan, but this is the first thing that came to mind. “Are you sure, Miss Avery? What if I’ll be called to the police station after this?” Cindy said in a low voice. I just laughed at the woman” reaction and then shook my head. Of course, I will not go to war without a shield and knowledge. Before coming, I got to know a little bit of information about his parents. Both of them love to facilitate outreach programs here in the Philippines, and I can only say that Cormac did not inherit from them b
Reportedly Dating Twelve: Indirect invitation
“You two seem so close,” Mr. Carter said immediately when we got back to the seat. Cormac is now with us. My plans and this will only be ruined because of Stoney. “Of course not.” “Yes, we are.”I almost turned to the man on the side and glared. He just raised an eyebrow at me and then fiddled with his phone. I don’t know what Cormac is planning. Is it to get revenge to visit me again, or is there something else? Because if he wants a fight, I will never stop him. My mother gave birth to me so that I won’t be a loser! “Yes, we are.” My answer became bolder on that part. “Glad to know that. It’s good to meet you now, Avery. I’m sure you will be able to stay at our house more often,” Mrs. Carter said as a matter-of-factly. This is a big misundersta
Reportedly Dating Thirteen: Change of plans?
I collapsed and threw myself on the sofa as soon as I got home. I’ve never been this exhausted in my whole life. I closed my eyes for a few minutes before I heard my brother’s voice. Since I got home early, I’m sure Jacques is still in the nursery at home with his tutor. At an early age, my older brother made sure that he was learning little by little. He couldn’t focus, so we just hired a tutor who dad also recommended. “You should rest, Av.” My heart quickly softened at what Kuya Jac said. Ever since he has really been my running mate, he was my enemy when I was bothered by other things. He knew all my misfortunes, but then, he stayed with me. He still never gets tired of proving that he is there for me. When was the last time I greeted him? He suffered a lot. It is not easy to raise a child who has done nothing but find his mom.
Reportedly Dating Fourteen: Stay close
It was past five o’clock in the afternoon when I arrived at BSE. I wouldn’t be relieved if Ma’am Cassandra and I would just talk about it on the phone, so after what the woman, I thought I would fly the distance between our home and the office. This must be a joke. Maybe Cormac was just mocking me or something, and I wanted to be sure. “Ma’am Cassie, what was that? What do they agree to?” I asked right after entering. The woman’s gaze remained straight. She shrugged slightly before speaking. “I don’t know what’s wrong with you guys. When you’re about to give up, the other side will agree. What really happened earlier about meeting his parents?” I had trouble sitting down but eventually started telling her what had happened. Starting with the plan at the airport, getting into their house, and how ann
Reportedly Dating Fifteen: He’s an orphan
“Dada!” My eyes immediately widened when I heard that loud shout as soon as we entered the place. Even before I could ask, the man beside me hurriedly attended to the kid approaching us. I froze right at my place. Is my intuition right all this time? Is he hiding a child? But why in an orphanage? “Dada, where were you? There are more of us already!” The boy smiled widely in front of Cornac. Bewildered, I took my cellphone out of my pocket and simply took a picture of them. I don’t know why I did that, but maybe I’m just worried I won’t see Cormac’s smile again. “Really? If that’s the case, I know you’ll be happier,” he said, smiling. I tried to ignore what I saw, but I also couldn’t help but smile. The man has this side. He’s not the Stoney that I used to kn
Reportedly Dating Sixteen: Meet Sanya
“Everything’s doing fine, sister. It’s great that there are more children here,” Cormac said enthusiastically as he ate one after the other. I have done nothing but wonder. Is Cormac Carter really what I see now? More than what I found out, he wasn’t really his parents’ biological son. It is also surprising that he has such a personality. He seems so different. But then, even though my resentment towards the man was rude, I still couldn’t help but be happy for him. I may be a little out of place, but I ignored that. The nuns here are kind, so as the children. I just don’t know why I can’t socialize with them. Maybe, it’s about the truth. The fact that Cormac isn’t really a Carter makes me even sadder. “I am glad that they are at home. . .” Cormac continued. “The anniversar
Reportedly Dating Seventeen: The contract
“Avery, you can’t do that! We need to please Mr. Carter because we are the ones who asked for his favor.” I hung my head low. I have so much to say, but I know that I shouldn’t do anything else at the end of the day but follow. “I am so done pleasing that jerk!” I sighed. I know I don’t have the right to complain, especially in front of the EIC herself, but I can’t feel used to it. Ma’am Cassandra will surely understand. Also, we’ve been together for a few years, so I’m sure she already knows my habit. “A little more patience, Av. This will be paid off once we win the AFA.” Somehow, those words calmed me down. That’s really what I’m holding on to. Some journalists are even noisier on their respective social media sites. Most of them are already starting to shoot the documentary and are already m
Reportedly Dating Eighteen: Terms and conditions
"What nonsense is that?" I couldn't help but sigh at the man in front of me, causing the few people there to look slightly at us. "The terms and conditions are in this envelope. You'll have your signature here, just like what our EIC told us. We will provide the contract–" "I won't sign that." The man just shrugged. He even managed to swallow the food in front of him. This will be a hard drive. All my patience was exhausted in the nooks and crannies of this man's personality. I took a deep breath — over and over, before turning into the man. "What do you want? You clearly told my boss that you are already accepting the offer, but you will not sign this 'contract'? How low can you go, Mr. Carter? This is just unprofessional!" He folded his hands and laid them on the table before looking at me. "How low can I go. . . Avery, how low can I go for you?" I froze in my place, I didn't even
