LOGIN"Who are you?" tanong ni Arlon habang hawak sa braso ang isang bata na babae. "Let go of me. You scumbag!" The arrival of his daughter awakened a longing for connection and love that he had never known. He loved Charlotte unconditionally but found himself lost, unsure of how to bridge the gap that had formed between them. Umiiyak si Charlotte sa isang kwarto. Puno iyon ng mga laruan na pambata, stuff toys at puno ang closet niya ng magaganda na dress ngunit wala sa mga iyon ang nakakuha ng ngiti at attention ng batang si Charlotte. As fate intertwined their lives, the complexities of love, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bond of family began to unfold. In their journey through the trials of life, would they discover that true strength lies not in perfection, but in the messy, beautiful reality of loving one another? "Wala sa inyo ni Miss Ophelia ang nagmatch ng blood type ng bata. Paano nangyari iyon?" May isang babae ang umiiyak na tumatakbo patungo sa emergency room na talagang kamukha ng nagpakilala na ina ni Charlotte at nakasama niya ng gabi na iyon. Cordelia Monteveros the woman who have a mentally unstable and walang kakayahan makapagsalita. Putikan ang dulo ng suot nito na puting dress at nakapaa. Hinawakan siya ng babae, puno ng pag-aalala at paulit-ulit na hinila ang sleeve niya— gumawa ng mga hand sign language na talagang hindi maintindihan ni Arlon. Nanatili si Arlon na nakatingin sa babae na akala niya na hindi na niya na ulit makikita at doon narealize ni Arlon na nakagawa siya ng malaking pagkakamali. In a world where family ties are tested by secrets, control and power.

“Why don’t you join us for the night, sexy? You don’t look shabby at all. I think your little mouth can take our cocks, won’t it?” A leering young man, alongside his friends, called out loudly, a bottle of alcohol in his hand, as he staggered towards me. I sauntered past, disgust coating my face as my feet pebbled across the rough asphalt, the boom of loud music permeated the air sieving across at me while I took steps, each feeble and determined into the house. It was a duplex, one painted in white with a swimming pool with bodies mingled together in it. I swallowed, contemplating if he was worth coming here for but I decided against going back, there was no way I could do that, not now. I was here and I had to see it through. My eyes fixated on the phone, the message still sprawled across the surface, the one which told me Wales was in here with a girl who wasn't me. With eyes stung with tears, I replayed back to the numerous times he had told me he would never cheat on me, and how I had believed him every single time he had said that, he had made me feel special, but thinking back to that now, it was whenever we had our bodies tingled in the sheet, after I had gotten him to cum and I was left unsated. My feet slumbered across the foyer, where hips grinded against each other and the smell of drink tingled with drugs filled the air. I should have been expecting this, it was a fraternity party, but it seemed so out of place, the type of place a good girl like me wouldn't be at. The type of scenes I wasn't used to seeing except in movies. With hands clenched when I drew closer to the room, I took in gasps of air before shoving the door open just enough for me to see, my eyes fell on the bodies scattered about, having sex when a familiar face turned to take a look at me. My heart plopped so fast as he glanced at me before flicking his gaze away as he went on even faster. Crystals streamed down my face, my feet rushed down the hall. With hands outstretched, I took a flute of champagne gulping it down in a go before reaching for another when a hand held me back. “ I don't think you will be able to step out if you take one more, you don't seem like that type to me.” A closer look at her outfit told me what I wanted, she was bare all the way to the top, her nipples clipped and had just a tiny skirt hanging above her ass. “Well..” I ran my tongue over my lips, reaching for another. “You don't know me at all then.” I grunted a bit when it stung me so hard that I had to take a step back to think. I shook my head to the side when I felt the effect kick in, my knees weakened as I tried to stand upright. Forcing myself to take a look at her, I questioned; “ What did you do to me?’’ My hands ran against the wall, my vision dainty with stars while I tried to walk away, hands held me back before I could take another step, digging into my shoulders, ones which I didn't know where they had stepped in from. “Well, what did I tell you? You seemed adamant, and keen to prove me wrong, so what do I know? The best I could do was let you see for yourself.” I shook my head, trying to get the hands off me. “Please….” I begged, when they dipped even firmer. “Don't do this to me.” I found myself having regrets, I should have just stayed back. “It should kick in pretty soon, the aphrodisiac laced with the drinks.” A husky tone said. “What were you thinking about when you stepped in here? This is a fraternity party for fuck sake. You don't want to participate in orgies,then I can give you a private show.” My body bounced against a bed, hands ran on me while I tried to shove them off, I tried to make sense of my surroundings before I heard a belt being flanked to the side, a body hovering over me, I turned rigid, giving up already when a voice thundered; “What do you think you are doing? Taking advantage of an innocent girl?” The body hovering over mine stood up, his lips curved into a smirk. “Do you want to partake as well? You can have her when I'm done with her, or…” His trail of words were cut off by a hand smacking against his cheeks, he stumbled backward, taking a look at me before scoffing. “How dare you? Do you even know who I am? I own the damn place and my parents will kill you if I say a word. Do you really think that I am going to let you go if you don't beg? Kneel and beg now!” He roared. I reached for the blanket, throwing it over myself before trying to move while I listened, waiting for the opportunity to leave. “Leave now, unless you want your parents kicking you out in the morning.” He warned. My cunt pooled at the tone he had used, while I took in gasps of air when I noticed how much effect his voice had on me. I turned puddled in between my legs, wanting to be touched, needing to be touched. I was ready to do whatever it was just so that I could get that. When the air stilled, the sound of the door being banged against its hinges slammed across at me as I waited to listen to what had happened. “Get up and leave. You should know better than to be here if you can't stomach alcohol.” I wanted to say the word, that it hadn't been alcohol, it had to be something else, but I found myself gulping down my trail of words before kneeling on the blanket, my eyes fell on his hazel orbs which seemed to pull me in. I swallowed. “Thank you.” He nodded, taking another step toward the door when I blurted out. “ I want you.” The words were out before I could think. “You are drunk.” He pointed to me while I shook my head. “I am not drunk. This isn't how it feels being drunk. I know it might sound confusing but I want you, I need to feel you inside of me.” He shook his head, a hand around the door knob when I threatened; “If you step out, I am going right outside, peeling off my clothes, which will give anyone the right to have me. Why don't you take the opportunity when you have it?” “You are drunk,” he repeated. I stood to my feet, bridging the gap between us as I did when I held his hands, taking note of the erection. “You want me.” I pointed that at him, taking my palm down to his trousers. What was wrong with me giving myself to a man who I would never see again? Wales was doing even worse,so why shouldn't I do this? He peeled my hands off. “That doesn't mean I should give in to you, dress up and leave. I will get an Uber right outside in the next ten minutes, you should find your way out.” Taking steps outside while meeting his gaze, I trudged along, placing a foot in the hall while his eyes stared at me, each look dug into my soul. I didn't pay attention to anyone else as I ran a hand on my shoulders, a hand peeling off my zippers as I wondered where exactly I had gotten the nerves from when he stormed closer, yanking me off the ground as he dropped me on his shoulders like I weighed nothing. “You wanted this, didn't you? Then you should be ready.”Chapter 53Nakasandal ako sa table habang may suot na pink na pajama at nakatingala sa projector kung saan pinakikita doon ang madaming design ng company ng mga Hayes, unfinished at iba is may mga problema sa ibang part ng design. "Check mo honey iyong new designs na nilagay ko sa table, ikaw na bahala magrevised if may kulang pa," ani ko at nilingon si Charlotte na nakaupo sa swivel chair at kaharap ang computer. May anim na screen na nakapalibot sa inuupuan ni Charlotte at tatlo doon pinalalabas ang mga children songs. "Yes mommy," sagot ni Charlotte na may hawak na pencil. Maya maya may kumatok sa pinto at bahagya ako lumingon. Pumasok si Benzo at bahagya yumuko. "As expected madam tama ang hinala niyo ni young miss Charlotte, papalitan ni sir Arthur lahat ng empleyado at magkakaroon ng conflict sa pagitan ng mga boardmembers," ani ni Benzo, inalis ko ang lollipop sa bibig ko at bahagya umayos ng tayo. "Pagpatuloy mo lang pag oobserve mo at mag iingat ka, madali mauto si Arth
Chapter 52Mabilis kumalat ang balita ng pagkawala ni Arlo at ilang araw din naging headline iyon sa newspaper. Sa pagkawala ni Arlo agad na nagkagulo ang boardmembers at pinagdidiskusyunan sino ang papalit sa CEO. "Tinatanong pa ba iyan? Kapatid ako ng CEO at sa mga Hayes ang kompanya na ito. Sino sa tingin niyo magiging sunod na CEO?" mayabang na sambit ni Arthur na ngayon naglalakad kasunod ang tatlong boardmember na nasa side ni Arthur since first day. "Mr Hayes alam mo hindi sa ganiyan nagwowork ang pagpili ng next CEO diba," ani ng siyang pinakamatanda sa room na iyon at malaki ang tiwala kay Arlo. Agad na nainis si Arthur sa pagkontra ng matanda. "Sa share mo at pera ko kayang kaya kita alisin sa list ng boardmember kapag napunta sa akin ang position. Hindi kita kinakausap," pikon na sambit ni Arthur. Nagbulungan ang ilang member doon sa idea na masyado immature si Arthur at ngayon nag aalala na sila ano mangyayari sa company. Sa inis tumayo ang matanda at hinubad ang suot
Chapter 51"Where's mom?" tanong ni Charlotte 'nong pagbalik niya ng table wala doon mom niya. Nakatayo si Charlotte sa harapan nang table noong magkagulo mga tao sa venue. Agad na hinawakan ni Benzo ang balikat ng batang babae at iniiwas sa mga nagtatakbuhan na tao palabas. "May tao sa rooftop!" sigaw ng isa sa mga guest. Agad na kinabahan si Charlotte matapos maisip ang ina. "No! My mom!" nagpapanic na sambit ng bata at aalis nang may humawak sa braso niya. Puno ng concern na lumingon ang bata sa pag aakala na si Benzo iyon. Bahagya kumalma ang bata matapos makita ang mom niya. Tinanong ni Charlotte mom niya saan ito galing. Tinuro ni Charlotte ang buffet table. Umupo si Cordelia sa sahig at pinisil pisngi ng anak. "Dont go out," utos ni Cordelia at mahina ang boses. Nakita ni Charlotte nagtakbuhan palabas ng venue ang mga auntie niya at ang matandang Monteveros. Kinabukasan imbis ang kasal ng Hayes at Fajardo, nagheadline ang about may Calliope na nakitang nakatali sa upua
Chapter 50"Ano iyan mom?" tanong ni Charlotte. Pababa siya ng hagdan, nakita niya mom niya may hawak na mukhang invitation at kaharap si Benzo. "Wedding invitation ni mr Arthur Hayes at miss Thalia,"sagot ni Benzo. Sinabi ni Benzo na hindi kailangan mag attend ni Charlotte at Cordelia. "Pinaalam ko na iyon kay sir Arlo and—""No aattend tayo," ani ni Cordelia. Lumapit si Charlotte sa mom niya at sinabi na may pakiramdam siya na pupunta din doon ang mga auntie niya. "Paano kung ibully na naman nila tayo?" tanong ni Charlotte. Hinawakan ni Cordelia ang ulo ng anak at bahagya ngumiti. "Hindi mangyayari iyon dahil naka set na ako stage para sa kanila. Sila ang mga magiging puppet natin at sasayaw sila sa tugtog na gusto ko," ani ni Cordelia at ngumiti ng matamis. Ibang laban na kapag dumating si Arlo kaya kailangan niya mas maaga isettle ang score sa mga kapatid niya. Nagtataka si Charlotte nakatingin sa ina. Noong araw na din iyon nagpatawag si Benzo ng mga stylist para kay Charlot
Chapter 49"Naiintindihan ko bakit galit si Civian kahit ako aatakihin ng nerbiyos if mangyari iyon sa anak ko," ani ni Cordelia. Kaharap ni Cordelia ang laptop at sa screen niya lumabas ang fake identity ni Dennis. "As expected may maghahalungkat ng identity ni Dennis buti na lang nakinig ako kay

Chapter 47"Tinawagan mo ako dahil lang diyan?" tanong ni Arlo mula sa kabilang linya. Nakaharap si Carsel sa laptop at ngayon kausap si Arlo. "Anong iyon lang? Hindi mo ba kakausapin si Charlotte about sa pagmamanipulate niya ng mga test papers niya or pagsabihan siya?" tanong ni Carsel. Naglalak
Chapter 46Mabigat ang atmosphere, sa mahabang lamesa at madaming pagkain kahit pa gaano kasarap at kaganda sa mata, wala sa mga taong nakaupo sa table ang nagawang komportable galawin ang kutsara until dumating si Arlo at Cordelia. As part ng act natutuwa si Cordelia umupo sa table at nag abot
