Is it your father, your mother or your girlfriend?""Why would you ask me? Don't you have the guts to do it?" Michele challenges him again.Stracci remained silent for a few seconds or so... Then without a word, he laughed out loud as if he was crazy."You got that courageous trait from your father, Michele. But unfortunately, it will get you in trouble at the end..." Stacci leered at him. "You really thought that you have won over my old man? I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but you're sadly mistaken." Michele sneered back at him.Stracci's brows met in an angry frown."You're really getting into my nerves now, young man." "I wish you could look at your face now, Stracci.

A few seconds later, she heard his voice from the inside."Come in!"Celeste went inside the room, while smiling. She immediately walked towards her father and gave her a big, bear hug."Happy Birthday, Daddy!" she happily greeted her father."Thank you so much, sweetheart. You look so beautiful, my dear daughter.

"Just follow what's in your heart, sweetheart. Only you can decide about your situation." she gently advised her stepdaughter."I just don't want to hurt and disappoint Daddy. I've always been spoiled by him, and I've always been a Daddy's girl. And besides, both of you are not getting any younger. I want you guys to enjoy your life to the fullest and let me handle the responsibilities at our company." Celeste explained what's on her mind."You know that the employees the company are important to your Daddy, right? Your father believes that without them, the company won't be successful now.

But Daddy said I can't do it alone, and I need someone to help me run and protect the company..." Celeste continues on."I'm not taking any sides this time because I understand both of you and your father.

Celeste is currently busy watering the garden inside Nathaniel Montecarlo's family farm. She feasted her eyes on the various flowers in the garden. There are red, white and pink roses, and there are also different types and colors of orchids. She is happy to be surrounded by different kinds of flowers. She feels like the Queen of flowers! Celeste then saw a very unique flower, and it was her first time to see it. She immediately picked one piece of flower and tucked it behind her right ear. Celeste doesn't know why, but she has this feeling that someone has been watching her every move. And her intuition was right. Nathaniel Montecarlo was standing in the balcony, while smiling at her. Celeste blushes like a steamed crab because of too much embarrassment. He might think that she has gone crazy while dancing as she was being surrounded by the pretty flowers.
