"Sweetheart please believe me that woman on the phone was the one who took my suitcase by mistake she had to travel back to return the suitcase, in time for us to settle the disputes of the partner company and seal the deal to make a multi billion dollars merger." But since the expression on Lorraine didn't change Mateo feared that he had blew it all up."Are you telling the truth 'case one call only I can confirm if you're telling the truth? Because it sounds so weard that it took so many days for her to realized that she took the wrong suitcase.""Yes! I found it strange too but she said she only realized she took the suitcase that doesn't belong to her when she cannot open it and she traveled a long way to a remote areas that doesn't have a good communication signals.""Then why did she answer your phone when I called? You gave it to her?""You know the woman was mysterious too. She came to my hotel room in an unholy hour. It was just good thing that my PA and I was discussin
On her way to her next session with the painting with Jake. She felt on an impulse and decided to pass by Mateo's office to have lunch with him.Their relationship was back to normal or even much more better that before. But she recalled her last conversation with her cousin. "What do you think, why he is sweeter to you now sis?" Giah asked when she commented that Mateo's changes for the better."I don't know, it makes me warry that he is just trying to cover-up something.""Such as?"Giah brows cross, she had experienced lthat certain feeling with her relationship with Leo before, he became extra sweet, but behind her back he is already constantly seeing his old flame Irene ,and if she didn't saw it with her very eyes it would have been hard for her to believe."Well I'm not going into detail but there are changes . Gifts , flowers, dinner date. Things that you would not expect from a very busy business man especially he is in the middle of expanding his business.""I think it mig
Lorraine went home and pack her things and baby Matt. In her anger she called Jake to cancel the whole thing."What is wrong Lorraine, have I done something to displeased you?""I just think that I cannot go through with it Jake. I have other priorities that suddenly came up, that I have to deal with as soon as possible. I'm sorry.""I cannot say it's okay because It really need that painting but,I respect your decision. There's only one thing I asked if it's not to much.""What is it?""Can I continue with the painting base in my imagination, and if it good enough, can I submit it for the contest?" Lorraine felt guilty for stopping their work together but she doesn't feel that she wants to continue with the session. She is just avoiding some problems arising in the future."You can do that? It's up to you only our condition holds no nudes." Lorraine trust his promise because he is a man with a reputation to uphold."I know. Thanks Lorraine but I'm hoping you would change your min
Mateo tried to stop Lorraine and her family from leaving but failed. "It's better this way Mom, Dad I will be able to focus on what my priority in the moment." Lorraine said when she saw the desperation in their faces. "We don't judge you baby girl, but would it have better if you gave him the chance to explain himself?" George said." I have given him the chance to speak before everything blows out but he chose to avoid the issues to the extend in lying to me that he and Sandy had met before too many times." He told her father." Isn't she your best friend who stay with you in your apartment when you live away from home? " George asked. " Yes she was my two faced friend who betrayed me. All the while she harbored ill feelings for me while acting friendly. " When she recalled how her friendship with Sandra end, old feelings open up. She should have made her pay for what she did. Instead of letting her be."It was good that you discovered her intentions on you before Sweetie at leas
"Of course, there's a lot of them that wanted us to part ways but who among. Don Emilio, Gordon and his daughter, not to forget the mother and daughter tandem Amira and Zee. Or maybe Sandy works on her own out of spite and jealousy. What do you think?" Lorraine replied when Giah asked her to come down to the number of people who doesn't want her to be happy."I must say you come up with the right people who could have orchestrated this. But I still believe that Sandra Scott does it out of envy, but I don't discount the possibility that someone must have influence her or paid her to seduce Mateo.""Why does this people doesn't give me a break. It tires me to think of this people who is after me and my family. I cannot to think of reason why they are doing this? When will it end?" Frustratedly Lorraine think of how her life had never given peace."Speaking of the end are you ready to face Don Emilio, and end this issue about fatherhood?""Yes, I'm more that ready. But what I am wor
Don Emilio holds his laughter and smirk instead. He told his men to make sure that Lorraine will not be able to reach the courthouse on that day of the hearing.He was at first skeptical when he saw a lady in veil entering the courtroom earlier. She was assisted by another woman who looked like her age is closer or at the same age as Lorraine."He wanted to know if it is Lorraine hiding under the veil herself, but he doesn't want to create a ruckus so he just ask his men outside of the courtroom to look out for that woman in veil.When Lorraine's name was called to testify, he turn his head to the door but in reality, he was looking at the lady in veil taking note of her reaction. But there was no movement. He set his mind free, thinking that his men succeeded on their mission. Maybe that woman in veil is one of those who is interested in witnessing the outcome of the proceeding and doesn't want to be recognize , could be one of his former alliance or can be sent by one of hi
"So they are the ones who took the documents on my previous home how appropriate. I thought it was destroyed by the fire. I always thought that girl was just acting that she accepted me as her father, that time I tried to understand her. Even when that good for nothing George Adams is lying wasted in the hospital, she never abandon him after all the neglect she experienced with his second family." Don Emilio was devastated that Lorraine testified against him and even denied him as her father. "You cannot blame her Boss she grew up knowing George Adams as her biological father." Joe the closest person to him among his men, told him."I was hoping she would change her mind once in the court and saw me in the defense side." He tried to look innocent and pitiful to gain her sympathy at the court hearing, but it seems it failed"I know I have my shortcomings Joe, but I tried to be a good father and husband. All I want is to have a complete family.""We cannot control people's emotion Bo
Loraine walk in to the family's spacious living room there's so much have changed the position and the furnitures itself. She had been living on her own apartment with her bestfriend Sandra and it's been months she had set foot on her parents mansion. But it's never welcoming after her grandmother died. "Well it's about time that you show your face in here!" Her stepmother said with an annoying greeting. As on cue her half-sister Zeinah added smirking. " Well, well, well the prodigal daughter has returned!!" " Speak for yourself Zee, at least I earned what I spend instead of spending the money that isn't rightfully mine like a beggar with open palms. " Loraine retaliated. "You...!" Zeinah attempted to slap Lorraine. " Stop it you two! If you can't keep your mouth shut Zee! You may go to your room." Her father issued the warning to her sister. Which made Lorraine wonder does miracles do happen? Or is her father want something from her to gain her symphaty? So he sided with her.
