The Hidden Heirs of the CEO

"Mom, are we gonna stay in the room again?" my 6 year old son-EJ asked me.

"EJ, come here. Mama will have a visitor," DJ said to his brother.

I smiled at them. My babies that are special to me; the source of my strength.

"Please, you know that it's dangerous to go outside, right?"

The four of them nodded. "EJ, DJ, come here. Stop asking mma," CJ said annoyed. Among of his siblings, he is the grumpy one.

The two went to CJ while BJ just smirked at them. Boys.. I shook my head.

"EJ, can you help me in this one?" then here's the princess of our little household, holding her doll that was given by her great aunt.

The boys stood up to help our youngest, AJ. I cannot remember how I made them out of my tummy. There are so many of them to the point that I need to undergo in cesarean.

I thought I won't survive but thank God, all of us were alive. Giving birth to quintuplets was not a joke. I thought it just happened in the movie but no. It's true. It happened to me.

My case is rare.

I gave birth to 4 boys and 1 girl. I didn't know that my boss would leave me an offspring as much as this.

A car that speaks millions stopped in front of my house.

A sophisticated lady got out of the car and looked at my apartment. I put my finger in my lips to “shh” them. The quintuplets nodded.

I went out of the room and closed the door. I was nervous going down because after 7 years, Attorney Manilou and I will meet again.

"Hija, it's been so long since the last time I saw you," she said and kissed me on the cheeks.

"Good morning attorney,"

"How are you?"

"I’m fine. Have a seat," I said and gestured the couch in front of us.

We sat down and I looked at the bodyguards she brought.

"Do you live here alone?" she asked while roaming the apartment.

I nodded. Partially a lie. I don't want her to know that I have children with me. Her grandchildren to be exact.

"I see. So you know why I am here right?” I nodded.

"My son having a hard time after the accident with his wife. But his ungrateful wife left him since Rod cannot stand for the time being."

I gasped. What happened to him? Is he okay? my mind fired a lot of questions but my face remained stoic.

"Do you want to take my offer, hija? Can you take care of Rod until the rehabilitation is done?”

"How is his feet? Can't he stand up anymore?”

"He still can. He needs a rehab for that. The doctors are helping him and so far, he's doing well.”

My answer is no. I won’t agree no matter how much the attorney offers me. She didn't know what happened between me and her son. And when she finds out, for sure she’ll be mad at me.

Attorney helped me to finish my studies. I owe my life to her. Without her help, I'm not sure if I can graduate.

But I became his son's mistress and that was a big shame for their family.

But attorney won't take no from me. I knew her very well.

"Why don't you hire a private nurse?"

"I like you hija. You can nurse him while guiding him in his business. I can trust no one else but you."

I held my breath and narrowly nodded. The money she offered isn't bad at all. I that amount, I can support my five children and send them to a well-known school.

I saw her smile.

"Thank you, March. You never let me down. If only you had agreed to be adopted then, I would have become your mom," she said.

I just smiled but didn't bother to say anything. I wanted to be her daughter, but Rod doesn't want it. He hates me so much but I am so crazy in love with him to the point that I let him use my body whenever he wanted.

I let him made me a mistress. It was my choice back then. That's how desperate I am. But not anymore. He's not my world now—I hope so.

"See you tomorrow, hija," attorney said before leaving.

When the attorney's car left, I heard the voices of my children while going down the stairs.

"Mama who was it?" BJ asked

"Was she your boss?" CJ concluded.

I nodded.

"I thought she is our grandma, mama." AJ said innocently while peeking outside the house. My heart beats so fast because of what my girl said.
