2024-10-29 19:42:56Ulie’s parents will be here in the Philippines next month. He decided to introduce me and to tell our situation to them.
The idea of meeting his parents makes me anxious.
I don’t have any idea about Ulie’s fiance. I don't even know her name but I'm sure that whoever the girl is, she will surely come from affluent family. I may be considered a rich person but compared to Ulie’s wealth, I am nothing. I am not sure if his parents will accept me or not though I know it doesn't matter because it was not on my plan to marry Ulie. I don't know why meeting them makes me so nervous, I should be cool about it. But maybe the reason of my nervousness is because I was the reason why Ulie can't marry the girl that they chose for him.
Two weeks passed after Ulie found out about my pregnancy.
I must commend him because I never expected that he would support me with my pregnancy.
Ulie is visiting me in my penthouse to bring all my food cravings almost everyday. No matter how late I call him to buy me the food I want, he will buy it with no complain. If it's too late, he sometimes spend the night here in my place.
So far, I like the arrangement that we have. There is no pressure, no expectation and it was clear for both of us that everything we do is all for the twins.
I was back from my deep thinking when I heard my phone ring.
"Hello?"
‘I'm already in the basement.’
"Okay. I'll be right there."
Ulie and I will go to my OB for a check-up. Today we will finally know the twin's gender. Speaking of twins, I to tell him that we will be having twins.
When we arrive at the hospital, people keep staring at us. I don't know if those people knew us or they are just curious.
When we arrived at my OB’s clinic, my OB eyes widened upon seeing Ulie.
"Hi, I'm Kade Ulysses Escarrer. I'm the father of Penelope's child." He introduced himself in a formal tone.
I saw my OB blush as Ulie introduced himself.
I just shook my head. Ulie’s presence makes the girl giddy.
"Dra. Martha Allejo." She also introduced herself in a formal tone.
Dra. Allejo’s assistant guides me to the ultrasound area to check my twins' gender.
She made us hear the twins’ heartbeat again. I am starting to get emotional again, I know that it is due to my hormones.
Until now, this pregnancy feels surreal. It hasn’t fully sunk yet that there are twins inside my tummy.
I look at Ulie, and I saw him smiling while listening to our twins’ heartbeat. It was his first time hearing it, and I can see myself in him when I heard it for the first time.
"Are you ready to know the gender of your twins?" Dra. Allejo asked with excitement.
I saw Ulie’s forehead creased. "T-twins?"
Dr. Allejo nodded. "Yes, Mr. Escarrer, didn't Ms. Cabello tell you that you had twins?”
He then looked at me. "No. She hasn't told me yet."
"Sorry, I forgot to tell you that we were having twins."
He just nodded, and he messed up my hair.
"It's okay, baby."
I felt blushed and kind of uncomfortable by what he said.
He's with his flirty mode again.
"We were ready to know our twins' gender Dra. Allejo." Ulie said.
The ob started to check the monitor. She moves the transducer tube to find the twins' gender.
"Your twins’ genders are a boy and a girl!"
My eyes widen. "Really?! Wow! Thank you, Lord!"
I can’t believe it. I am so happy right now. I wanted my twins' gender, a boy and a girl. I wanted a girl because I am sure that I will enjoy dressing her up like a doll. I also wanted a boy because I want him to inherit my company.
After our check-up, Ulie and I decided to have dinner first before we go home to celebrate.
"Now that we already know the gender of our twins. We need to prepare ourselves because my parents will be here in two weeks." Ulie said.
I just nodded at him. The truth is, I am not that excited to meet his parents.
"Also, I have already canceled the wedding. So don't be surprised if my parent's reaction when we meet them will not be that good.” He informed me.
I swallowed hard. I don't need them to like me, though, because I don't have plans on marrying their son.
"Ulie, I'm just curious. May I know the girl you are supposed to marry?" I finally asked.
I can’t help myself to ask him about the girl. I am so curious about the girl Ulie’s supposed to marry.
"She's Hadley Adelson. The only daughter of Simon and Lilah Adelson. The heiress of Adelson Hotels."
My eyes widen at his revelation. AGC owned more than 200 hotels in the USA. I heard that they are planning to expand their business in Asia, particularly here in the Philippines. They are like the Escarrer in America.
I completely understand why his parents will be in a bad mood because their son canceled his wedding.
"You look shocked." He said.
"Of course I am! They are Adelson! They are like the Escarrer in the USA!”
"So?" He reacts as it's not a big deal.
I can't believe him!
"You know you can still marry her. I mean, I will not chase you." I said, trying to convince him.
"Too late, baby. I have already canceled the wedding. Plus, we will have our twins. I don't want our children to be illegitimate. Once I marry her, our twins will become illegitimate. Do you want that?” He explained for me to understand.
That made me shut my mouth. "I don't want that."
"See? Stop thinking about her. Just focus on our twins."

Today is the scheduled arrival of his parents.I was hesitant because I want them to settle down first before we started to reveal to them about the twins, but Ulie keeps on insisting that I should go with him.

I don't think it's right to eavesdrop on their conversation. I decided to go back to Jace’s table. “What happened, Ms. Cabello? Why did you come back here?” Jace asked.“Ulie has a visitor, and I don't think it's right I disturb them. Also, you guys are supposed to come with me to this meeting, right?” I said instead.It's true, though. They suppose to come with me to the meeting. But these two are here busy talking with each other.I saw them blushed. I lift my right brow. Something is fishy between this two.I just shook my head. It's not my concern anymore if there's going on between them. They are both single. “Sorry, Ms. Cabello. It slips my mind that Mr. Hearst is in his office now. I will inform Mr. Escarrer that you are already here for the meeting.” Jace said instead.“No, it's okay. We can wait; we are not in a hurry. Also, who is Mr. Hearst?” I asked curiously. “Mr. Hearst is our exclusive partner. All our branches here in Asia we're exclusively tie-up with Hearst Res

I wanted to say no because I don’t want the media to find out about the father of my babies. Though my pregnancy got exposed, we were able to hide from the media that Ulie is the father of my twins. But they won’t budge. So I had no choice but to let them do whatever plan they have for the baby shower. I know that we can’t hide the twins’ father forever, but as much as possible, I want to have a safe delivery first before I face the potential crisis that I need to deal with.I formally met Ulie’s sister, Kaela Ulyssa Escarrer, a week after I met their parents. Ulie and Kaela were the ones in charge of their hotels in Asia. She had a meeting in Dubai last week, so she was not there when Ulie formally introduces me to their parents.

Ulie’s parents wanted us to live in Escarrer’s mansion, but I decline.I already prepared everything for my twin's arrival in my penthouse. I renovated one of the rooms in my penthouse three months ago and made it the twin’s nursery room.I love plain, simple, and minimalist design. I made a neutral shared nursery room with white furniture, open shelving, a crystal chandelier, and pink and blue linens and toys.I showed it to Ulie when he started to stay in my penthouse. He likes it, and we both decided to take care of the twins here in my penthouse. Ulie requested to let him stay here in my penthouse for the first three months of the twins.

I can’t forget the conversation I heard from Nick and him.From what I heard, it only shows that Ulie is responsible not because he was sincere with

“Is it true that Mr. Kade Ulysses Escarrer is the father of your child?”I felt Ellie stiffen. She didn't see that coming, same with me. I don't know where did they get that information. We were always careful. We made sure that all people involved in Ellie’s pregnancy until she gave birth is a secret. She was always in the VIP section, and all the premises in the hospital were exclusively for her during her delivery and even during checkups. We know that we can’t keep it a secret forever. But we want to announce it ourselves. We even plan to do a party to tell the twins. I held Ellie’s hand and squeezed it to calm her.“I think you were all brief that all questions would only be about the LHI Resorts. Were you not informed?” I answered the press in a cold voice.“Is it true that the reason why Ms. Cabello got the project is that she seduced you and get herself pregnant?” The press asked instead. “What did you say?” Ellie said. From the tone of her voice, I’m sure that she was an

“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

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.

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

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.

“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.

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.
