“Lohan…” Amber was shocked to see Lohan leaning on the wall when she opened the comfort room’s door. It seems that he followed her there.
“It’s really nice to see you… again, Amber.” Lohan said looking at her eyes.
“Lohan…” she uttered his name.
“I’m happy that you’re okay.” He said and hugged her tight. “Mom is worried sick thinking of you.” He added and released her. “We can’t move without Uncle Leo’s signal.” He added making her curious. “I’m just glad that…” he sighed. “Anyway, you don’t have to worry about a thing, I will not say a thing to Rafa.”
“Thank you, Lohan.” She said. “Please tell Auntie that I’m in good hands.” She added. “And about Uncle Leo, how is he and his family? After I sold all our properties, they are nowhere to be found.” She asked and she noticed that Lohan flinched. Uncle Leo is their family’s lawyer and a close friend of her parents.
“I..I also haven’t heard of them.” Lohan answered. “Dad has something important to tell you, I just talked to him on phone earlier. Imagine his shock when he saw you after how many months.” He sighed. “It’s good that he managed to control his self from hugging you.”
“I was also shocked to see him two days ago and I was embarrassed at the same time.” She sighed. “What does he want to say?”
“He still hasn’t registered your marriage contract he wants to know your decision.” Lohan said. “Even if he’s a close friend of Rafa’s father, he still puts you first.” He added making her surprised.
Judge Timothy Marquez is one of her parents close friends and he treats her as his own daughter, because Lohan is an only child. His shocked face when Rafael introduced her is still fresh on her mind.
“Please tell Uncle to register it, Gabriel will surely have it checked. Besides, Rafa and I already talked about our marriage and we decided to somehow make it work.”
“Are you sure?” Lohan asked, worry is evident on his grey eyes.
“Yes, don’t worry.” She smiled.
“If you say so…” Lohan sighed. “I am really happy to see you again, and I’m sorry if I was not there when you needed someone to depend on.”
“Don’t be silly.” She smiled. “I know what you’ve been going through during those times.”
“Amber?” A familiar voice called her name, she immediately turned around and hugged her.
“Kaylee!” She happily exclaimed while hugging her tight. “I’m so happy to see you again.”
“I’ll leave you two then, I will go and see Rafael and the others.” Lohan said. Earlier Gabriel and a man named Phil joined them for the simple celebration. Joshua cannot make it because he and his fiancée went to Baguio, and Jon is having troubles of his own.
“Okay. Thank you.” Amber said. Lohan nodded and glanced at Kaylee. She can feel that something is going on with the two.
“So, what’s with you and Lohan?” She asked Kaylee as soon as Lohan is far enough not to hear.
“W…what are you saying?” Kaylee stuttered.
“There is something between your look on each other.” She teased. “He’s a good catch, my friend. He’s a responsible one. He owns Venus studio, though I don’t know why he’s here.” She added.
“There’s nothing going on between us.” Kaylee said. “But you on the other hand have Sir Rafael and now you also have Sir Lohan.” Kaylee teased.
“Lohan is a childhood friend.” Amber said. “But you and Lohan look good together.” She teased making Kaylee blushed. “See! You’re blushing!” She teased while laughing.
“Jeez! Stop it, Amber.” Kaylee said covering her mouth. “Someone might hear you and will get the wrong idea.”
“Fine, fine!” Amber said trying to stop laughing.
“You’re the one who is supposed to be on the hot seat and not me.” Kaylee said then grinned. “So, you’re now, Mrs. Anderson, eh? And you didn’t even tell me that Sir Rafael is the father of your baby.” She said and there’s a hint of sulkiness on her voice.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t really know that he’s the owner of the place.” She said making Kaylee frown.
“But Sir Rafael told everyone earlier that he has no idea that you’re working here.” Kaylee said.
“What he said earlier were all lies; he doesn’t want me to be embarrassed.” She said. “But it is true that he has no idea that I work here.”
