บททั้งหมดของ Changing Fate: Forever Starts Again with the Heartless CEO: บทที่ 171 - บทที่ 180

FELICITY’S UNCLE LIVES abroad most of the time, running a company, but mainly in the international market, and only comes back at the end of the year or start of another year. “Parang mas gumanda yata itong si Felicity ngayon. Medyo tumaba na siya eh. Bagay.” Felicity's uncle praised her upon seeing her.  “Hello po, Tito!” Felicity happily ran over and hugged her uncle's family when she saw them.   Ngumiti  lang ang kanyang tiyahin. “Felicity really is prettier, a real beauty!”  “Tita, hindi naman. Gaya pa rin ako ng dati.”At para baguhin ang topic, tinanong na niya ang pinsan niyang hindi nila kasama ngayon.“Naku, busy ang pinsan mo. He opened a branch office this year, and the company was busy at the end of the year, next na lang daw siya uuwi ng Pilipinas kapag di gaanong busy.”Felicity's father interjected. “Oh wow, napakagaling na

HINDI NAGSALITA AT kumibo si Felicity, tumingin lang siya kay Odessa. Her small face, barely the size of a palm, was even thinner, and her eyes weren't as bright and clear as when they first met. Bahagyang bagsak ang mga balikat niya, and even her white cashmere coat couldn't hide her thinness. Bago pumasok si Felicity sa coffee shop, maingat niyang nilagyan ng matingkad na pulang lipstick ang labi. She's been in a good mood these past few days, sleeping well, so her complexion was radiant, and she looked fresh and full of energy.Unconsciously, it seemed as if Odessa and Fae had switched roles. She had become the humble woman wasting her life for love, and Fae had become the detached observer, unmoved by the pain.“Odessa, bakit mo sinabi kay Jago na pinapunta ko ang biyenan kong babae sa iyo?” Felicity finally spoke after a long silence.“A-Ate Fae…”Odessa was startled, a hint of guilt flashing in her eyes as she avoided her

INAKALA LANG NOON ni Felicity ay nasa ilalim ng pressure si Jago mula sa kanyang pamilya, ngunit hindi pa niya nararating ang puntong ipaglaban ang buong mundo para kay Odessa, kaya malamang ang plano niya ay ipagpatuloy ang paggamit sa kanya para mapalugdan lang ni Jago ang pamilya niya.This was the only plausible and reliable reason Felicity could think of. “Hindi mo na kailangang subukan pa, Jago. Umlais ka na. Wala pa si Dad sa bahay. Baka mapahiya ka niya pagbalik niya kapag nakita ka niyang narito ka. Makinig ka sa akin.”Felicity rationality prevailed. Speak of the devil, and he appears. Her father had just had something urgent to attend to, and her mom was busy with the dinner, so she didn't know Jago was there. Nang makita si Jago, lubhang nagbago ang ekspresyon ng mukha ng ama ni Fae, na para bang may nakita siyang nakakatakot na bagay na pumasok sa bahay. “Anong ginagawa mo dito? May lakas ka pa talaga ng loob na

UNLIKE JAGO'S CASUAL relationships, he was very serious about dating Tessa but this was opposed by his family. At that time, Jago's grandfather was seriously ill, and wanting to see Jago married, he looked for suitable candidates, ultimately deciding that Felicity was the right one. When Felicity learned she was to marry Jago, she agreed without hesitation, which further intensified the El Gueco family's opposition to Tessa. “Mom, bakit hindi niyo sinabi sa akin noon?”Nahahabag na ang puso ni Fae sa babae. “We were firmly against Jago and Tessa being together back then. We thought their relationship hadn't lasted long, and once he agreed to marry you, things would just end there. Sinong mag-aakala na ang batang ’yun ay—”Hindi na nagawang ituloy iyon ng Ginang na ang mata ay napuno ng guilt at pagsisisi noon.Sa wakas ay naunawaan ni Felicity kung bakit napakaraming masasakit na salita ang sinabi ni Jago sa kan

AMINADO ANG BABAE doon na nagulat, ngunit hindi gaano dahil ang alam niya ay galing nga ng ibang bansa noon si Julian. “So that's how it is.” react ng ama ni Fae na tumawa pa, “Ang alam ko matagumpay mo ngang hinahawakan ang business niyo overseas. Eh, bakit bigla kang umuwi? Bakasyon lang din ba hijo o for good na dito?”Gustong sawayin ni Fae ang ama. Masyado itong usisero gayong di naman sila close nito. This question forced Fae to quickly lower her head. Malamang sinabi na naman ng kaibigan niyang naroon sila. Hindi na siya papakaipokrita, walang dahilan si Julian na pumunta doon kahit pa sabihing naging partner sila ng ilang beses ng kanyang tiyuhin. Naramdaman ni Fae ang pagsulyap ni Julian. “Ah, After being abroad for so long, I missed home. Besides, I'm over thirty and still single, and my parents are pressuring me to come back. Pinagbigyan ko lang po ang hiling nila.”Felicity's parents exchanged a look, a tacit unde
