Semua Bab Hiding The CEO's Son: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Llilieth's POV Weekend. Sa wakas. Ito lang ang mga araw na puwede kong isantabi muna ang pagiging owner ng restaurant, at maging full-time mommy kay Kaze. Tuwing weekends kasi ay hinahayaan kong i-manage ng nga staff ang restaurant. Never naman nagkaroon ng aberya kaya kampante ako.Nasa sala kami, nakahiga sa carpet habang hawak ni Kaze ang stuffed dinosaur niya at ako naman ay tinuturoan siyang mag-drawing ng mga bituin at ulap. My son is a smart kid but sometimes, gusto niya pa ring turuan ko siya as a form bonding sa aming dalawa."Mommy," biglang tanong ni Kaze habang hawak ang kulay na asul. "Can I play with Daddy Adrian this weekend? There's some things I wanted to do with e."Napatigil ako. Kahit gaano ko man gustong itanggi, ramdam ko pa rin ang tension sa pagitan namin ni Adrian. Ramdam ko pa rin ang pait ng pinagdaanan ko sa piling niya. I have forgiven him a long time ago but it was never easy to forget all the things that happened be

Blaster’s POV Minsan iniisip ko talaga, kung hindi ako naging secretary-slash-bodyguard-slash-life-coach-slash-love-guru ni Boss Sir Adrian… malamang nanalo na ako ng acting award bilang Best Supporting Best Friend of the Century.Pero eto ako ngayon. Standing by the shore like a sentimental tito, watching the most dramatic love-and-chaos teleserye unfold—featuring one confused CEO, one fierce mama, one adorable child, and one spoiled socialite na parang laging may sariling entrance music.Nakaupo ako sa bench malapit sa cabana, shades on, pineapple shake sa isang kamay, at mental popcorn sa kabilang utak.Sino ba talaga ang bida? Sino ang kontrabida? At bakit parang ako ang laging tagasalo ng gulo?"Hay, Blaster, this is your fate." Napapailing na sabi ko sa sarili ko.Paano ba naman? Kahapon, ipinagmaneho ko na pauwi si Miss Dia. Iyon kasi ang bilin ni Boss Sir tapos kaninang umaga, nandito na naman siya sa beach resort kaya n

Adrian’s POV The silence in my condo was deafening.It had only been a few hours since I dropped Kaze and Yvon back home, and yet the echo of their laughter — her laughter — still lingered in every corner of my head. The memory of Kaze chasing the waves, his small feet kicking the sand, Yvon’s gentle eyes following him, and the wind brushing through her dark hair—all of it kept looping in my mind like an old film I never wanted to end."How come I never noticed how beautiful her smile was before?" I whispered the question to myself. But then, a bitter smile curved in my lips. "Maybe it was because she never smiled genuinely during the time she was with me."Huminga ako ng malalim. It hurts. I felt a sting in my chest just knowing and remembering how I hurt her before. Sobra ko siyang nasaktan. Napanood ko kung paano unti-unting nawala ang galak sa mga mata niya tuwing makikita ako. It was indeed irreversible. I can't take back all the wounds and scars I caused her. Kahit anong pilit

Nana’s POV Tahimik ang hapon. Ang mga kurtina ng veranda ay marahang sumasayaw sa pagdampi ng malamig na simoy ng hangin. The scent of jasmine and warm tea filled the air, a soothing mix of comfort and memory. Kahit matanda na ako ay malinaw ko pang naaalala ang kabataan nina Adrian at Blaster. Bata pa lang ay makulit at palabiro na si Blaster samantalang si Adrian naman ay mana sa kanyang ama na laging composed at seryoso kaya takot ang ibang batang lapitan siya, due to that, he had no friends. Only Blaster had the guts to be friends with him. Ngayon, malalaki na sila at may kanya-kanya ng buhay pero nandiyan pa rin lagi si Blaster para sa kaibigan."Rigour, I hope your son is brave enough to choose what you didn't before." Bulong ko sa hangin na tila ba kausap ko ang namayapang ama ni Adrian.Nasa maliit akong sala, hawak ang isang tasa ng tsaa. My hands were steady, but my heart? My heart was beginning to tremble. I always feel this way when something bad is about to happen.Tumu

Llilieth’s POVThe soft clinking of utensils, the gentle murmur of customers enjoying their late lunch, and the smell of freshly grilled salmon wafting from the kitchen—these were usually comforting to me. This restaurant had always been my quiet haven. My anchor.But today, even the calming rhythm of the place couldn’t soothe the chaos inside my head. Napakarami ng mga bagay na tumatakbo sa isip ko pero ang dahilan? Iisang tao lang. Sino pa ba kundi ang lalaking minsang itinibok ng puso ko to the point na halos nakalimutan ko kung sino ba talaga ako.“Lily?”"Huh?"Nag-angat ako ng tingin at kumurap. Vience was staring at me from across the table, concern etched in his eyes. “You’ve been stirring your coffee for five minutes, hindi ka pa rin umiinom.”Napakunot ang noo ko. “Oh,” I murmured, finally noticing the untouched cup in front of me. “Sorry, I wasn’t really paying attention.”Vience leaned forward, resting his el
