All Chapters of Hiding The CEO's Son: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Vience’s POV The city was still slowly waking up—light traffic, sleepy faces in jeepneys, sidewalk vendors starting to open shop. The sky was tinted a soft blue, with golden streaks stretching from the east. It was a peaceful morning.But my mind was nowhere near peaceful. Hindi ko maipapiwanag kung bakit ginugulo ng mga isipin na hindi dapat sa akin ang utak ko.I was behind the wheel of my black SUV, driving towards one of my construction sites in Quezon City. Usually, this part of the day was when I got to breathe. Just me, the road, and my playlist of old OPM rock classics at kpop songs playing in the background.Pero ngayon, kahit ilang ulit ng Eraserheads at Rivermaya, hindi ako matahimik. Kahit ilang kanta ng Super Junior at EXO ang patugtugin ko, hindi nito magawang iwaglit ang mga bagay na gumugulo sa isip ko.Too many things were running through my mind.Adrian.Kaze.Lily.I tightened my gri

Adrian’s POV It was already past seven in the evening when I finally arrived at the villa. The sky had darkened, and the lights around the garden glowed like soft fireflies—elegant, warm, familiar. The air was cool, the kind of calm I usually found peace in.But not tonight. Ginugulo pa rin ng inis ang utak ko. Tuwing mapapaisip ako ay tila nakikita ko pa rin ang tuwa sa mga mata ni Yvon habang kausap ang tarantadong Vience na 'yon. I felt annoyed sa tuwing maaalala ko minsan ay sa akin niya ipinakita ang nga ngiting iyon.I loosened my tie the moment I stepped out of the car. My driver offered to carry the small paper bag I brought home from the mall—a box of dinosaur chocolates I had impulsively bought because Kaze mentioned liking them earlier. I forgot to gave it to him because of my emotions. Huminga na lang ako ng malalim saka umiling. I just wanted to see Nana.I walked past the main doors and into the terrace where I knew she’d be. There she was, exactly where I expected her

Adrian’s POVI looked at my wristwatch, it was almost dusk. I just finished signing all the documents sent to me this morning. Nang wala na akong gagawin ay agad kong tinawag si Blaster sa opisina.“Boss Sir, we have the final files from MorgenTech. They’ve agreed to the joint proposal on one condition,""What condition?""...they want exclusive marketing rights for the first phase.” Aniya.I nodded slowly, eyes still fixed on the skyline outside my office window. I could see the city coming alive with lights as the day surrendered to night. Blaster placed the folder gently on my desk, and I turned to him.“Give it to them,” I said quietly, rotating my stiff shoulders. “Let’s just secure the partnership. We can renegotiate leverage in the second phase once numbers are in.”He raised a brow. “Noted, Boss Sir. That’s very… strategic of you.”I gave him a side glance. “It’s business, Blaster.”“True,” he s

Adrian’s POV The morning light spilled softly into the room, cutting through the blinds and landing on the curve of her cheek. I stayed still for a moment—my eyes glued to her peaceful face. Yvon. Ang amo ng mukha niya habang natutulog. Parang wala kaming pinagdaanan kagabi. Parang walang bigat sa pagitan naming dalawa. Her chest rose and fell gently under the sheets, and there was this quiet, subtle smile on her lips—one that made my heart ache a little. I remembered everything. Every word, every sigh, every trembling touch we shared last night. Every moment that led to this silence. And now… here I was. Awake. Unsure. Hindi ko alam kung anong magiging reaksyon niya sa paggising niya. Hindi ko alam kung magagalit siya sa akin o mandidiri dahil sa ginawa ko kagabi. Hindi ko rin alam kung bakit hindi napigilan ang sarili ko na muling angkinin siya. I wanted to be a man about it. To be responsibl

Vience’s POVKakapasok ko pa lang ng kotse, pero parang may bumara na agad sa dibdib ko. I glanced at Lily's door one more time before settling on my seat.I closed the door quietly, rested my head against the steering wheel, and shut my eyes.Ano ba itong nararamdaman ko... bakit ang bigat? I've always been very supportive towards Lily. Kahit anong mangyari, lagi akong nasa panig niya. Laging nandiyan para suportahan niya at magsilbing lakas niya. I'm always doing everything to make her smile. I want her to be happy. To be with someone who will take care of her. Pero bakit ganito ang nararamdaman ko ngayon? Bakit hindi ko maintindihan? This feeling I have when she told me about her sleeping with Adrian. I don't know what it is. It's unfamiliar.I wasn’t angry. I wasn’t… jealous. I wasn’t.Right?I let out a shaky laugh. “Ang tanga mo minsan, Vience. Baklang-bakla ka na ba to the point na pati sex life ng friendship mo ay pinagse
