Third Person's POV

“Yes, Brylle. I meant it. If you are busy, you can just decline-“

“No, no, I am always free for you,” he cut her off. “So what is the time and the location of the restaurant? So I can clear my schedule.”

And she felt relieved that she did the first big step...

Marissa watched her grandma enjoying what she had been doing for all her life inside the apartment and felt so grateful that she still had a family. From what she knows, her father disappeared a long time ago before she was even born, while her mother died after she was born.

When she heard that story when she was still a teenager, it felt like she was a living unfortunate being. But her grandmother always reminded her to remain strong, because she is notable more than she thinks.

After dinner, Marissa spent her whole night doing her project at work ---- to find women her boss could date. Her grandmother was watching a comedy show on a television in the living area, while she was on the single couch holding he

  • To Love My Boss   Chapter One-Hundred-Six: To Know the Truth

    Marissa’s POVI tightly clenched the handle of the glass door of the coffee shop where I am supposed to go. I stared at it, doubting if I should go in or not. I closed my eyes and breathed in and out deeply.Marissa, you are already here. Do you think this is the right time to be nervous? You already called Zeana Tan and wasted her time to come here. To talk about why she was telling you that she is your mother. And the truth behind everything that still lingers everywhere but never been answered.In the end, I pushed the door and the bells rang inside the coffee shop. There were not a lot of people, I noticed. The scent of the variety of coffee kind filled my nostrils. For a moment, I checked if I smelled good and my coat dress was a good choice. It was Chanel and I even brought my Gucci bag. I wanted to look formal but not too impressive. Only subtle, because I would be talking to the most successful woman I have ever known.“I’ve got this…” I said to myself and heaved a sigh again.

  • To Love My Boss   Chapter One-Hundred-Five: I’m Sorry If I Left You

    Marissa’s POVAs I prepared the fruits and other food in the tupperwares from the huge back we brought, my eyes would repeatedly look in the direction of Lilith and Diego playing in the playground nearby. He was the only parent playing with his daughter, while the other kids were just enjoying themselves with their parents in their picnic spots, taking photos and talking with other adults. Diego was gently pushing Lilith on a swing. I smiled without even noticing as I stopped and watched them. I could hear Elisa rummaging the plastic so she could get the water bottles.“I thought Lilith looked more like you,” I heard Elisa comment, so I gazed at her. “But now that I am seeing your boyfriend beside her, she does have some significant features from him.”It made me stare intently at Diego and Lilith. I have always thought that our daughter has his eyes and smiles whenever I look at Lilith. Maybe Elisa was just used to seeing only me and Lilith.“He is not my boyfriend,” I found myself

  • To Love My Boss   Chapter One-Hundred-Four: Blushing

    Marissa’s POV“You’re late,” I pointed out when I saw Diego outside of the house. He just got out of his car. “Sorry,” he said, caressing his nape while busy looking around behind me. “Where is Lilith?”He did not even try to look at me properly. At least, appreciate my dress, makeup, and hair?But I did not let the disappointment linger over me. Instead, I cleared my throat and pointed to my car parked on the other side of the road. Lilith and Elisa were already inside the car after I went there to turn on the engine, so I can go to him next.“They are already ready,” I answered. “Anyway, you are not busy, right? You don’t have any meetings?”“Well, do you have any in your company?”“No.”“Then I don’t have any. I am only here because of you and Lilith. I invested in the company where you work just to see you,” he said without taking his eyes off me.Small ticklish atoms scattered inside my system, affecting my ability to compose myself because of what he said. The sun was behind hi

  • To Love My Boss   Chapter One-Hundred-Three: A Little Bit Excited

    Marissa’s POV“You have to go. It’s going late already,” I said to Diego when we finally both went outside the house. “I don’t want you waiting for Lilith at this time. She won’t see you. Let’s give her some time.”Diego’s eyes were conspicuous in front of me, and it made my heart constrict again just like what it did when he kneeled in front of my daughter. Currently, he was subtly looking behind me as if he was hoping Lilith to go outside. He was even playing with his fingers nervously, fidgeting and blinking. The sides of his eyes have already dried up from crying. “Diego…” I called him, now claiming his attention. “Are you okay?”“Yes,” he immediately said and bowed his head. “I feel like I am just disturbing you and Lilith.”“When did you know?” I curiously asked. “That she is your daughter?”He only looked at me with sadness, his eyes venturing around my face. It did not make me uncomfortable. It even gave me nostalgia for how he looked at me every time before, side by side on

  • To Love My Boss   Chapter One-Hundred-Two: He Is Your Dad

    MARISSA’S POV“Are you really sure about talking to him?” Brylle asked as he hid my view of Diego who was sitting on the couch in the living room.I sighed while I was crossing my arms. “He wanted to see and know about our daughter,” I said. “What should I do? Deny? He already knew before he could even reach here.”“But you vowed to yourself that you will never see him,” he said firmly and furrowed his eyebrows. “Don’t tell me that you still have feelings for him, Marissa.”I remembered how Diego kissed me a while ago, and I felt so guilty in front of Brylle. Ever since I left the Philippines, he was the one who comforted me together with Nica. They were both supportive of Lilith and I. So I know that he is just worried about me seeing Diego.I could not help but avoid my gaze. I saw from my peripheral vision that he nodded, as if he just confirmed something.“You still love him,” he reckoned.“I have been prepared for making Lilith meet her father,” I stated, meeting his gaze again.

  • To Love My Boss   Chapter One-Hundred-One: We Were Just Nothing

    I felt my heart drop when I saw Diego Montero entering the backyard with Lilith holding his hand and pulling him to her friends. Diego’s expression was mixed with confusion and surprise. The guests barely cared, because in their minds, Diego must just be a guest. “What is he doing here, Marissa?” Nica asked as I followed her going outside the house. “Do you think I know?” I exclaimed and muttered a crisp curse. “So why is he holding Lilith?” “I don’t know!” Nica and I kept exchanging frustrated mumbles because we have no idea why Diego was here. How did he even know my address? “Sir, you can get a slice of cake at the buffet table,” Lilith even said and pointed at the table with her head looking up to Diego. I was taken aback that I could not help and snatch her hand away when I got to the both of them. Diego parted his lips as he looked at me, his eyes digging into mine and searching answers from the questions he must be having in his mind. Out of urge, I held Lilith and moved
