Planned Baby Lead
“Where are my phone and laptop?” Ellie bombarded me as soon as I enter the nursery room.“Ellie, it's best if you will focus your time with our children,” I said.She glared at me.“I’m not stupid, Ulie. I know why did you hide my phone and laptop. I am not weak as you think.” She said in a cold voice.I knew she would be angry at me. I don't want her to be hurt.“I know, but let me handle this,” I said, full of concern.“I don’t need you to fight my battles. I have been doing this alone, and I handled it perfectly well.” “But I want to. Just let me deal with them, please, Ellie.” I know she's strong and independent because she has no choice. Her parents died when she just graduated from college. She needs to take over the company at the age of 21. It's not easy for a 21-year-old girl to take that enormous responsibility. She was alone then, but not anymore. I am here for her to fight with her battles. “Ulie, let us make this clear. You are only allowed to make decisions for the k

“Great because I have now the lead.” My eyes widen. They got the lead this fast! LHI is a company you can’t easily beat. “Did you know RV Engineering and Architectural Services?” He asked in a serious voice.I smirked. I knew it. They are behind this.“Of course, I know them. They are the leading company in the architecture and engineering industry here in the country.” I said. “Okay. But did you have any issue or conflict with them?”“Are they the one behind all these?”He nodded. I saw his jaw clenched.I sighed aloud. “My hint is right.”His forehead creased. “What do you mean?” “Who was your Architect and Engineer in your existing hotels here in the country?” I asked instead.His eyes widen. He got my point.“Oh yeah! Why didn’t I think about that? I don't care if they are the leading company in this industry. I will make them pay for what they did to you.” He said in a menacing voice.“But our priority is to clear my name in this issue,” I said.He looks at me with gentleness

Four days before we announced the press conference“Ellie, I have a meeting today with RV shitty company,” I informed her.She chuckled. “You are so mean, Ulie.”I clenched my jaw. “That name suits their company. I will never forgive them for what they did to you. I will surely make them pay. They insulted you an Escarrer.”Her forehead creased. “I am not part of Escarrer.” She corrected me.I smirked. “The moment you gave birth to our children, you automatically became part of the Escarrer family.”She rolled her eyes. “Don’t you dare tell that to anyone?! You might not be able to get married when they hear that. They will assume that we are in a relationship or something.” “I don’t plan to marry anyone,” I told her.“Oh yeah! I forgot. You didn’t want to get married.” She said, then chuckled.“Well, I don’t mind getting married if you are the bride,” I told her. She just laughed. “Whatever, Ulie!”I shrugged. She never believes me whenever I say this thing to her. But I am serious

‘Hey Ellie, are you available for a meeting?’ “I guess. Why?” ‘We will be opening a restaurant in Tagaytay, and we want CIC to do this project.”My eyes widen. I was surprised when Nick calls me all of a sudden. Wow! After LHI, we will be working on another big project.Hearts Restaurant Group is a famous restaurant here in the Philippines because of its reputation in the US. They were one of the known high-end restaurants in America. My issue about LHI will end soon. The press conference will happen in three days. “Are you sure that you like us to take this project? I mean, you know my issue.” I said.‘Yes, I am sure. Yes, I know about your issue with LHI. But I also know that all of those were lies. I have seen you and your team work first hand. I know how great your skills are. That is why I want you to handle this project because I know you will do great.’“Wow! I’m flattered. Thank you for believing in us. I would love to work with Hearts Restaurant Group.”‘Great! I know y

“You look pale, Ellie. Are you sick?” Ulie asked.He looks at me with pure concern on his face.“No. I’m good. I wasn’t able to sleep well because I am thinking about today’s meeting.” I lied.The truth is, I wasn’t able to sleep at all because his kiss last night keeps bugging me.Ulie and I were clear about our relationship. We are nothing but Alistair and Amelia’s parents. We are both aware that we don’t need to pretend a couple for the twins. We want to raise them fully aware of their parent’s actual relationship status.I never ask him to be faithful because we are not in a relationship; we were never will. I knew why he was friendly with me and why he treats our children well; it was all because of the freedom that he got because of us.But now, I don’t understand why he is not living a man's life with freedom. He always gave most of his time with the twins and me. I have never seen him go out to a party or had fun with his friends. He acts as if he was a married man.I was back
Planned Baby Press Conference
Today is the most awaited press conference of LHI. “Are you ready?”I smirked at Ulie. “Of course.”He offers his hand to me, and I gladly accepted it.Aside from Ulie and me, Nick will also be joining the press conference along with the legal representative from CIC and LHI.Ellie's family is with us. They will stay in the waiting room beside the hall where the press conference will happen. They will watch the live press conference there. And they will take care of the twins for the time being.Jace opens the hall for us. Many reporters from all TV networks, newspapers, radio, and magazines attended. The non-stop flashing camera started as soon as they saw us entering the hall. Jace stays beside the stage while we continue to go to our designated seats. A legal representative of LHI gave the opening statement. He told the press that they are only allowed to ask questions after we answer the issue. He gave them two main issues that we will answer. Is Mr. Ulysses Kade Escarrer th

“Of course there is. And we already know who is the person behind all these.”The media started to murmur and flash cameras again.This is a big scoop for everyone. They will not miss it for the world.The legal representative started to explain my claims.“After the commotion in the LHI resorts media launch, our company started to investigate. It’s obvious that it was well planned and someone is behind this.” He started his speech.“We look on the bank account of the person who maliciously accused Ms. Cabello of doing dirty tactics to get the LHI Resort Project.”“And we found this on his bank account three days before the said event.” The monitor showed them the bank transaction of the person he mentioned but it didn’t reveal the person who transferred the money to the said bank account. “Also, days after the event, he was seen meeting Mr. Ventura of RV Engineering and Architectural Services.” He revealed.“Are you saying that Mr. Ventura of RV Engineering and Architectural Servic
Planned Baby Don't Mess with Ellie
After the press conference regarding CIC’s credibility in getting the LHI Resort Project, our company was still a hot topic in the country. The only difference now is that all the write-ups were positive. Our credibility is now cleared, and our stocks tripled- the stocks will be considered at an all-time high, thanks to Nicholas Hearst and Ulysses Kade Escarrer.“Ellie, the receptionist, called, and she told me that Mr. Ventura is in the lobby and he wanted to talk to you. I told her that you would not meet him, but Mr. Ventura insist on meeting you, and now he is making a scene in the lobby.” Luna reported to me.I am not surprised by his sudden visit. I heard that his company is facing bankruptcy because of his scheme. When Ulie announced that they blocked listed RV, it was expected that it will be the end for Mr. Ventura’s company.No one will want or even attempt to work with them. Working with them means that they are on Escarrer’s bad side. It will surely be hard for Mr. Ventura

Epilogue
I thought that life is so unfair. I even hated God for letting all of this happen. I only loved one woman in my life, but why did God allow me to be the reason for her sufferings? I hated God so much that I tried to kill myself. I feel like, my mere existence is the cause of the suffering of many people. The suffering of the people I love. They said when you don’t understand, you just need to trust God. I failed to do this. I failed to trust Him. One thing God has proved to me was, that He is still in control. He did not let me die, instead, He gave me what I longed desire, and that is Ellie. I can’t believe that she asked me to marry her. It felt like a dream. I can’t believe that I am here on the altar waiting for her to walk down the aisle. Today is our wedding day. Our family and friends were delighted when they found out that Ellie and I will get married. The twins cried with happiness. They have been praying for this to happen, day and night.

“Ellie, my brother committed suicide.”“W-what?!” Kaela didn’t say anything. She just kept on crying. My heart was beating so fast. “Kaela please tell me you are kidding. Ulie did what?” I said a bit shaking. But again Kaela did not answer and just kept on crying. My children started to ask me what happened because my tears are flowing again.I took a deep breath. I need to gather myself together because my children are with me. I can’t tell them about what happened. I shake my head and smiled at them. “Nothing. Your Aunt Kaela just wanted me to see your dad.”They just nodded but I know that they are not convinced by my answer. We went straight to the hospital. I called Luna and asked her to go to the hospital because I needed her to take care of my children.When we reached the hospital Luna was already there. “I heard what happen. How is he?” She said upon seeing me. “I don’t know yet. I need to talk to Kaela first. Can you get the kids and take care of them?” I asked. Luna

Dream
I was so devastated after my daughter pushed me away. I talked to my son and asked him to stay with her sister tonight. I know that Amelia needed her brother right now. Even though Amelia bullies her twin brother most of the time, Alistair is still her confidant. I am planning to go to my parent’s mausoleum tonight. I needed to see them with all the things happening now. This is what I always do whenever I feel down and lonely. Just being with my parents comforts me, especially when I start praying to God with them. It is just like when they are still alive, we pray and worship God together. It’s a good thing that I made this mausoleum exactly like our home, especially in times like this. I can stay here for as long as I want. When I went inside and saw my parent's grave, tears start to fall again. Losing them only seems like yesterday. “Mom,” My voice broke. “My daughter hates me. She doesn’t want to listen to my explanation. She thought that I will take them away from their fa

Amelia knows the truth
“What kind of stupid question is that? Of course, I’m not fine. My daughter hates me now. It’s all your fault.”Ellie hates me and I can’t blame her. It was my mistake who took away the lives of the people close to her... Ellie’s only family.Because of me, Ellie became an orphan. She needs to take on difficulties and responsibilities at an early age. I am proud of how strong she became but I am also mad at myself because she could have avoided this kind of loneliness and hardship if it wasn’t for me. I keep on questioning myself why did I do that?! Why did I try to beat the red light?! I should have waited! I was able to wait for her for five years, but why can’t I wait for a minute or two? If I stop and wait for the green signal then her parents will be able to attend their only daughter’s graduation and still be alive until now.I wish I could turn back the time but I know I can’t. All I can do right now is to support Ellie and help her as much as I could. I will no longer dream

All your fault
“What’s there to explain about? We heard about your plan with her loud and clear! You are so selfish, mom! I hate you!” Amelia shouted then she went out of my office.I glared at Hadley. She covers her mouth. “Oppps, I’m sorry! But don't worry everything will be alright after I execute my plan. Bye!” Then she went out of my office as if she won a lottery. I felt so weak. My daughter hates me more now. But what is she doing here? I was about to go to Luna and ask her why Amelia was in my office when I saw Alistair looking at me. I went to him and hold his hand. “Alistair I will explain.” Alistair nodded which gave me a huge relief. “Before that, we need to find your sister,” I told him then we both went out and look for Amelia. One of my employees told us that they saw Amelia going down the elevator. When we reach the lobby, one of the guards told us that Amelia already left. Just a second after the guard informed me about Amelia, my phone receives a call from the bodyguard I a

Loud and Clear
“Hi, Ellie. Amelia called me and she wants me to take her to the mansion.” Karma explained when I was the one who opened the door for her.I just nodded and I open the door widely for her to come in. I showed her to the twins’ room. I saw both of them sitting on their respective bed. But Amelia has a bag with her, looking determined to leave me. I controlled my tears from falling. I know I messed up big time. I guess they are better to stay in Escarrer mansion than be with me. I was still mourning for my parents. I was not able to mourn for them before because things happened so quickly that I find it hard to absorb everything. I was in denial for years. I don’t want to accept the reality. I pretended that everything is alright and nothing has changed. I took over the company as soon as the funeral was over. I took as many workloads as I could so that when I went home I don't have time to think of anything and just sleep. I have been doing that for many years until one day my de

“Come back home. The kids are waiting for you.”I was stunned for a moment. We often believe that everything happens for a reason. But I can’t seem to figure out why all these things happened. Why did God let me fall for someone responsible for my parents’ death? Why did God let me have children with him? I even let myself believe that Ulie was the one for me. “Are you okay?” I did not notice Luna’s presence. I was so consumed by my emotion. “I would be lying if I told you that I am okay because it’s so obvious that I am not,” I told Luna. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have asked that. That was insensitive of me.” Luna said looking apologetic. I shook my head. “That’s nothing. I know you mean well.” “So what’s your decision? Are you going back to your penthouse?” Luna asked. I nodded. “If Ulie will leave the penthouse then I need to go back home. No one will take care of the twins in our home. Also, I already miss them and I know they miss me too.” One thing I’m grateful about is

Alone Time
I woke up with a heavy heart. I look at myself in the mirror. My eyes were swollen from crying all night. I still can’t believe that this is all happening. I can’t believe the person I entrusted my heart to broke it again for the second time. I regret meeting him. My phone rang. It's the phone we gave to the twins. “Hello?” “Mommy! Where are you? Why are you not staying in the house? Are you with dad?” Amelia asked. My eyes started to well up again. “I... I was at your grandparents’ mausoleum. I dream of them and they said that they miss me. So I might stay here for a while.”“What will happen to us then? Dad is still in the hospital. And you are staying at grandma and grandpa’s mausoleum.” Amelia asked. Her voice sounds so sad. I bit my lower lips. I’m sorry my children. I can’t meet you right now. I’m feeling devastated and I might not be able to hide it in front of you. I may hate your dad but I don't want you guys to know what happened in the past. I don't want to pass this

“I was the one who killed your parents. I was the one who causes the accident.”“What are you saying?” I was so worried when Ulie suddenly passed out after he was shouting for pain. I immediately call the ambulance. Flashback The first person that came out of my mind was Quen. I called him and told him about what happened. “How is he?” Queen said as soon as he arrived at the hospital. “The doctor said that he is stable now. But they will run some tests to find out why he was suddenly in pain.” I said. “What happened? Where were you again when Ulysses was suddenly in pain?” Quen asked.My hand was still trembling from fear. Thoughts came through my mind. Is Ulie sick? If yes, is he aware of his sickness? Is he going to be okay?I was back from deep thinking when I felt Quen’s hand on mine. “Ellie relax. Ulysses will be okay. Can you tell me now what happened?” Quen asked me again. I heaved a sigh before I answered him. “We were in my parents’ mausoleum. He was fine when he arri
