The Obstacle Is The Way

Nang ipinanganak si Celeste Dela Vega ay nakaplano na ang kanyang kapalaran—iyon ay ang ginawang pag swap sa kanya ng family maid nila sa anak nito sa kagustuhang mabigyan ng magandang buhay ang bata, habang si Celeste ay itinapon lang sa kung saan. 20 years later, the Consunji family finally found her. Ang buong akala niya ay magiging maayos na ang kanyang buhay, ngunit kabaligtaran ang nangyari. Instead of guilt, they gave her betrayal. Her fiancé Jaxon Jimenez cheated on her, and her family took their maid’s daughter’s side. Ginawa ni Celeste ang lahat upang labanan ang sarili niyang pamilya, ngunit tila mas lalo siyang pinahihirapan nito, hanggang sa wala na siyang ibang pagpipilian kundi gamitin ang black card na matagal nang nakatago—bagay na lalong ikinapahamak niya. Bullied and desperate, Celeste finally gave up, but immediately saved by the owner of the black card—ang tinaguriang pinakamayaman at makapangyarihang tao sa buong bansa. “Your fiancé? You’re dreaming, Celeste. There’s no way Mr. Razon would take you as his soon-to-be wife.” “What’s the problem with that, Mr. Jimenez? Are you insulting my wife?”

Rowan Villaraza is rich, good-looking, and used to being chased by women. Para sa kanya ay laro lang ang lahat. Pa-cute dito, pa-charming doon. Wala pang tumanggi sa kanya. Walang hindi bumigay. Pero nabaligtad ang mundo niya nang dumating si Paige Acosta—ang bago niyang secretary na parang laging galit sa mundo. Luma kung manamit, laging seryoso, and the way she looked at him... it was as if she saw something disgusting on the floor. Hindi siya ‘yung tipo ni Rowan. At lalong hindi siya ‘yung babaeng mapapatingin ka ulit sa kanya. Pero ewan ba niya kung bakit ito pa ang hindi niya matigilan pagmasdan. Lalo pa nang hindi man lang ito natinag sa mga pa-charming niyang siguradong epektibo sa iba. Kaya nang biruin siya ng mga barkada na paibigin si Paige ay tinanggap niya ang hamon. Easy lang naman yun kay Rowan. One look, one smile, and game over. Pero habang tumatagal, iba ang nangyari. Imbes na ang secretary niya ang paibigan, mukhang siya pa ang mahuhulog. Imbes na siya ang nilalapitan, siya ang gustong lumapit. And by the time he realized everything was real, he was already the one chasing after her.

It wasn't an easy decision, but he had to do it. Owen Sebastian Gonzales had undergone many dangerous missions but none of them required him to fake his death. He has no choice though, because doing it would be the only way to save Henzel Artemis Flores—his longtime girlfriend. He had to watch her mourn for his “death” before he was sent out of the country with a new identity to do overseas missions for the mean time. Years later, he comes back as Aiden Clifford Williams, the greatest spy of his generation and ready to do missions in his home country again. He gets the shock of his life when the profile of the next target given to him holds the same face with the woman, he had fooled years ago—his ex, Artemis. They’re not allowed to ask about why their target needs to be eliminated, they just have to accept what is given, build a plan and then kill. And so, with a reluctant heart, he goes to clear his mission or he’ll be the one to face the consequence—death, for a failed mission. But what happens when in the middle of many attempts, he discovers something about her? What happens when the girl he thought he knew all those years ago also holds secret as deep as his own? What happens when the target he's supposed to kill turns out to be a mother, most specifically, the mother of his child he never even knew existed?
