Gina was very silent, while Olga was very busy talking with Arthur and Samuel inside the office. they were just waiting for their officemates to start their meeting. Gina couldn't just stop thinking about Beth, because as far as she remembered, she was the one Alis was talking to her before. "Hey, honey, are you okay? You look pale." Olga softly asked her. Gina just looked at her mom-in-law, and shook her head, and gave her a smile. Olga knew she was overthinking, and she probably knew it was about Beth again. "I am fine, mom." she said. Olga just pouted, and squeezed Gina's hand. Alistair entered the office, and his eyes landed on his wife. He could see that she was thinking about something. "Hey, mom, everything okay here?" he asked them. "I guess, I think Gina wasn't feeling well. She looked very pale." Olga worriedly told him. Alistair looked at his wife, and Gina just shook her head. "No, I am fine. Do not worry about me." she just said. When Alis was about to speak agai
Olga scoffed."Nah, you know when I found out that I have been comatose, I thought that I think I needed to you know, walk around to spend the days I have been inside the hospital. I don't care if he is going to get mad as long as we have enjoyed."Olga said.Gina thought she was right, but she couldn't stop feeling very nervous because of Alistair. She already knew and have seen how he gets mad after all. When they arrived at the lobby, both of them decided to walk around. Olga seems very ignorant, but Gina was very open to showing and telling her everything she knew about the offices inside the company."Wait, is that the woman who was with the CEO a while ago?" they stopped walking when they heard someone talking about them.They waited for a while if they are going to say bad things about them."Yeah, I think the other one was the new CEO's foster mom, and the other was his wife." one of them said.Gina and Olga seemed very surprised that they were even updated about Alis' life."I
Everyone was still staring, but Alistair just decided to order for himself as well and join his wife and his mother. Gina and Olga couldn't stop thanking him, but the three of them were very happy."Aren't you supposed to be back there? your grandpa must be looking for you." Olga worriedly asked him.Alis just shrugged his shoulder."Nah, the meeting was over already, and they decided to go home first because he needs some rest." he said.Olga and Gina both nodded. While they were chatting at their table, everyone inside the cafeteria went very silent, because he was there."I think you need to tell them that I am your mother, and Gina's your wife. They need to know that, because they were being disrespectful to us." Olga mumbled and rolled her eyes.But Gina just laughed and against her suggestion, because she doesn't want the employees to treat them very special. She wanted to be fair with others, but it seems like Olga and Alis liked her idea as well. Without any thought, they were
Alistair was just happy as well that they are very lucky to buy that dress. After they paid for everything, they headed went to look for bags. Yes, bags for Gina and Olga. As they entered the LV store, Olga couldn't believe she was merely looking and holding some of the LV bags."This is my wish if you didn't ask. I wanted to buy these kinds of bags before, but now, I can get it and now. Right, son? Can I buy two or more bags in here?" Olga asked him.Alistair just laughed and shrugged his shoulder, while Gina was as well laughing. Gina had lots of bags like that at their house, which is why she thinks she doesn't need it, but Alistair insisted on telling her to get some because she couldn't go home and take those bags with her."Come on, honey. He's right, your life with your family is not the same anymore." Olga said.She has no choice, but to pick some. Alistair was just surprised that his mother got five bags, but he wasn't mad about it. His goal for today was to make them happy a
It was already six in the morning, and Gina and Alistair were still both sleeping. Her phone couldn't stop ringing and she even thought that it was Alistair's alarm clock because he has an early meeting today."Who would call in such this time?" Gina groaned as she recognized her ringing tone.Alistair was awakened as well."Hello?" Gina answered the call without even looking at the name.She was just awakened when she heard a woman crying or sobbing from the other line. Her eyes grew bigger and looked at the caller's name, she was surprised it was Charlotte."Cha-rlotte? why are you crying?" she nervously asked.Alistair got interested and opened his eyes as well."Georgina, you need to come here. Mom and dad got into an accident a while back while they were on their way to the airport. Please! we need you. The doctor says they are both in a critical state." Charlotte said.When she said that, Gina's hands were shaking, and dropped the phone. Her eyes were full of tears as well. Alis
Gina couldn't say anything. She never thought what she feared the most right now is happening."No, I don't want to." she firmly said.They already transferred their parents to their rooms, and she was very heartbroken seeing them in that situation. Bandages were wrapped around their heads, and some of their bruises. Blood was sticking to her mind."Georgina, please don't be selfish for now. We need to think about mom and dad. Leo is going to help us by giving us a not-that-huge amount, but it's not enough for our parents' surgery. If you are going to ask some from your husband, maybe it's going to be a big help." Charlotte said.Gina was being the hot seat right now. They were all expecting from her right now. Vilma explained to her everything that they don't have much money, and if they are going to spend their last money, they will be poor and couldn't buy food on their own. Gina doesn't know what to do right now. She was stuck between her family and her own life."Please." George,
Gina was very worried that her sister had told him about Ronaldo, but it was a good thing that she didn't tell him about that because she wanted Gina to tell him on her own."We'll go. I am going to come back tomorrow." Gina told her sister.Charlotte nodded."Yeah, you'll be the one who will stay here because I need to do something to help them with the expenses," Charlotte said which made her feel sad and guilty.Gina just didn't say anything and they left the hospital. During the entire trip going home, she never said anything and Alistair was very much worried about her. He knew that it made her that stressed."Are you okay?" he asked her as they arrived home.Gina forced herself to smile at him and nodded."Yes, I am. Alistair, thank you for picking me up." she said.Alistair just nodded and sighed."It's my right and duty as well. Let's go, the old people are already worried about you." he said.She chuckled when he said, old people. She never thought he would actually call them
Alistair arrived and saw his wife. He hurriedly walked towards her and hugged her. With that, she started crying again."I am sorry I am late." he whispered.Gina just closed her eyes and bring out every tear she has to bring out. She was lucky that she never gave the money to them, which they might have taken away."I am sorry. I didn't know they were just pretending. I should have seen and noticed it." she softly said.Alistair just caressed her back and stopped her from crying."No, it's not your fault. It was good that you finally saw the truth. Come on, let's go somewhere else." he said.Gina nodded and he wiped her tears. Alistair was so mad that he wanted to sue them all for doing that to her, but Gina just told him not to do anything, and their own karma will come and haunt them. Gina fell asleep because she was tired of crying. Alistair took her to a place where he usually stand by every time he needs to feel alone."This place never changed." he smiled.While he was walking
