The CEO’s One Night Child

WHEN he returned home, Page was not there. Maybe she just went somewhere. Never mind, he’ll just wait for her to come home. Because he went to the clinic, he came home early this afternoon.

He just put the long-stemmed rose he bought for her on the table in the living room of the house. So that when she arrives, she will see it immediately. There is a note in the rose stating that it is for her.

He smiled when he arrived at the dining area because obviously, the naughty woman ate the foods he prepared here before he left earlier. She also left a letter with him. Saying: Thanks, Pops!

He just smiled again when he clearly heard the voice of her speaking to his brain. Page Sanrio’s voice seemed like music that had left a mark on his mind so he memorized it. Like a good one song that you can’t keep out of your head.

He snatched his phone from the pocket of his pants. He’s going to text her so he may know where she is, there’s probably nothing wrong with him asking …

But even before he dialed Page’s number, an email popped up at him that he couldn’t ignore.

Wrong, it’s better to say that he can’t afford to ignore that.

Because Red emailed him. He forwarded a message from the private investigator they hired for the whereabouts and such of that night in Ilocos Norte …

“DAD, no! You can’t do this to me! Say you’re just kidding! That’s not true.” With trembling lips, Page said to his father. Her voice and looks given to him are also pleading.

Her daddy nodded as if ashamed of her. “I – I’m sorry, Page,” he said in a troubled voice.

She had never imagined this day. The day she could see the defeat of his tall daddy.

His dad Santrino Yuzon, is a well -known businessman in Ilocos Norte. Although, it is not hidden from everyone and to her that he is arrogant because all the success he has achieved was obtained in a fast way- because he’s the son of an Olivarez, who is also a well -known businessman in their area.

All of this is a business. His dad’s parents only used to thrive in businesses so he grew up in a loving family. Add to that that not a single sibling has him.

And now, his daddy is telling her that their business is at a loss? That she also needed to marry their governor because that was the only way for them not to sink completely. Hah! That’s a big nonsense and she can’t allow that!

She wouldn’t want to and no one would want to be like the family her dad and mommy built. Haven’t they sunk in on those yet?

“M-Mom … please tell me it’s just a joke.” Even though she didn’t want to and she knew that her mother didn’t care how she felt, she still turned it on her.

She glared at her. “You’re really stubborn, Page!” Persida scolded her only child, “You really inherit from your father! You’re both wrong!”

Her tears could not be shed. Especially when her mommy turned her back on her.

Not once did she ask herself if she was really her child because Persida treated her like an air in the house. That’s the reason for her to be stubborn and not nearly go home early. They’re too busy with businesses, then they’ll say it’s bankrupt? That’s a big prank!

“Dad, please …”

“Page, I’m sorry, this is the only way for us to save our businesses. Then, your mommy is right, you will be good in the hands of Hanz Marciano, his family is rich. You will not be poor. At the same time we can save our property that is already mortgaged to the Marcianos. ”

She gritted her teeth. Although she didn’t want to criticize his dad, she couldn’t help himself. “That’s how you are! That’s why the people around you are secretly laughing at you, because you’re being submissive to mommy!”

Santrino shook his head, looking at the child with pity. “Page, I’m sorry, you can’t get me like that because everywhere I look, your mom is right-”

“You look like a robot without a mind of your own and you want me to be like you!” She cut off what her daddy had to say.

She left him afterwards. If she hadn’t done that yet, she might have done more rude things here.

Even though she was raised by these people who lacked the care and love that parents should give to their children, they did not abandon her. She didn’t even suffer until she was twenty -two years old. In fact, she was a princess in that house. She lived luxuriously, literally. Ultimately she studies and she doesn’t care. They don’t care as much either.

And why, now she realizes that if she hadn’t been changing courses, she would have had a good job now. Hopefully she can help her mommy and daddy with their financial problems. But they still don’t get what they want! There is nothing wrong with wanting this to happen!

When she got to her room, she covered herself with a blanket and there, starting to weep.

Hanz Marciano is one of the men she has many times failed to fall in love with. It’s disgusting to think that he really doesn’t want to stop it.

It’s heartbreaking to think that the man will be her husband…

“I DON’T believe that Dad’s businesses are bankrupt, Yanie,” she told her friend when she and her met in town.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Yanie has been one of her friends since they were little. She played with her at Hacienda Yuzon. Beggar, that’s what Persida calls Yanie because she’s one of their staff’s children.

Now that they are both adults, now that they are facing each other at a two-person table in one of the famous fast food chains in town, she suddenly realizes that the real beggar in the two of them was her. Because looking at Yanie right now, when she arrives, there is no trace of a beggar on her. She is far from the past. While she is here, using the money of her parents for her personal expenses and all-money that she needs to pay by marrying the town governor!

“Uh-huh,” Yanie replied sparingly.

“I have a strong feeling that this is more than that. His business is more than bankrupt and why can Hanz Marciano be the one to save? Is it because he is the governor?”

“Bingo!” She was dumbfounded by Yanie’s exclamation, “You know, you’re really smart, Page, so I’m yours.”

She sighed. “This isn’t the right time to joke.”

Yanie burst out laughing. “Okay, sorry. I’m serious.” She faked a sneeze. “Page, that’s how it is …” She laid a piece of paper in a brown envelope on the table and pushed it closer to her…

When she opened it, tears immediately flowed from her eyes.

“M-Mom isn’t my mother?”

Yanie stared at her intently. “I think the governor has a poof in the brain. Once he saw you with Persida, he really wanted to hit on you. So, when you came back here – you were already pawned to Hanz Marciano.”

“W – Who is my mother?” she asked instead.

There was pity in Yanie’s eyes as she stared at her. “Page, you know me, I’ll do everything for you because you didn’t shy away from defending me against bitches like you.”

“Crazy,” she replied weakly to the friend.

She wiped away the tears. This is also not the right time for that. She meets Yanie because she’s going to let her escape tonight.

Yanie grinned. “That’s right, Page, be brave. Use that as foundation so we can succeed later.”

“I’m not hurt by the fact that Mom is not my real mother, somehow, I know that, I feel it.”

“You really don’t have a mother anymore, Page. She died, five years ago, by accident. She was one of your dad’s flings, she left you with your daddy when she gave birth to you. At that time, your dad was already married. your mommy, it’s also true that Persida can’t have children because she got pregnant outside the womb so she accepted you. ”

With dim eyes again she sniffed at her friend. “As much as you know! Why, it looks like you’ve only been a police investigator at the private agency you work for for two years,” she said to her friend, jokingly.

But Yanie doesn’t smile. “Hanz Marciano is obsessed with you. In fact, his entry into politics is because of you. So that he can get you in the future.”

“Y-Yanie…”

“You can escape, believe me. Your dad will be okay, don’t worry about that, I’ll take care of it.”
