Episode 51
We started with Simon tearing up Leah’s presentation and
telling her along with her team that he needed them to do something more to
impress their clients who would hire them for all their campaigns if they did a
good job.
He said that he would give them two days to come up with another idea
but someone told him it was not possible. Simon said that he would give the
account to someone else but Leah assured him that they would have something
ready for him within two days.
However, that very day, Simon asked Leah to send him the
revisions of the project that evening. Leah called Clark and asked him not to
pick her up because she would be working late again. Clark insisted that he did
not want Leah to go home alone but Leah told him that she could not concentrate
on her work if she knew Clark was waiting for her. Clark agreed not to go pick
up Leah but asked her to call him once she was on her way home.
After Leah was done, she found Clark asleep down stairs. He
had been waiting for her and Leah woke him up to ask why he had gone to pick
her up after they had agreed that he would not pick her up. Clark said that he
only said he would not pick her up because she said he distracted her but he
could not let her go home alone when it was so late.
They went home and Leah asked Clark to stay the night since
it was too late for him to go back. Before they went to bed, Clark asked Leah what
her dream wedding would be like if they had money to do it. Leah told him all
about her fairytale wedding but she added that it did not matter because she
would be marrying her prince charming and that was what mattered.
In the morning, Leah’s colleague woke her up early because
they had a breakfast meeting with the Juice clients. When Clark woke up, Leah
was already gone but she left a note on the table along with breakfast for him.
They were supposed to go for their cake tasting at noon but
when Clark called Leah to ask if she could make it, Leah said that their
meeting was running late and she could not be able to make it. Clark went to
the tasting with his grandmother instead and sent Leah a picture.
It was Christmas time so everyone at Leah’s office picked
out names randomly so that they could but each other’s gifts. Leah got Simon
and she had a hard time looking for a gift for him since one of the themes was
“Something Sexy”. She went with her coworker to but gifts and got Simon one of
the vests that Tolayts wore, (Tolayts had given one to Clark and she thought he
looked sexy in it apparently).
Leah got home late again and was not able to video chat with
Clark who had fallen asleep in front of his computer. Leah was woken up by Clark’s
call in the morning and when she picked it up, he told her that he was right
behind her. Leah jumped off the bed and hugged Clark. Clark had brought Leah
the sample cakes so that she could be the one to decide the one she liked best.
Later, the two of them went to book the date at the church
for the wedding but the attendant there told them that they had to go through a
seminar before the date was officially reserved. The seminar was at Thursdays
at 7 pm so Clark asked Leah if she could leave work early to attend the
seminar. Leah said that her presentation with Simon was at noon so she could
make it to the meeting.
On the day of the seminar though, Leah’s presentation got
pushed back to 5:30 and Simon was not on time. She managed to go through the
presentation well and Simon liked it although he said that it needed more
polishing up. Leah flew out of the office the moment she was done but then had
trouble getting a ride. By the time she got to Clark, he was furious since she
was already too late and he had to reschedule the seminar. He even asked Leah
if she still wanted to get married because she needed to set her priorities right. Leah tried to
make it up to Clark by taking him out for ice cream but Clark refused to eat it
since it was a cold night. He was upset with Leah until she tripped and cried
out in pain. Clark rushed to see if she was fine and asked if anything was
broken. Leah said that her heart was broken because Clark was mad at her, and
then made a pouty face. With that, Clark loosened up and told her that he was
only upset because he really wanted to marry her.
They both went shopping for Christmas presents and Leah was
at a loss as to what to get Simon because he was rich and had everything. Clark
told her that even rich people needed something; such as love.
At the office party, everyone had to reveal their “secret
santa” , the person they had picked to buy gifts for. Leah gave Simon his
present and everyone was surprised that Simon was her sectret Santa as well.
Leah’s office mate was eager to see what Simon had gotten Leah because the box
was big and heavy. When Leah opened her
present, it was a laptop! She hurriedly went to return it to Simon since it was
too expensive. Simon told her that he had bought it after ruining hers and he
would not return it for another gift because he hated shopping. With that, Leah
had to accept it. Simon also asked Leah about the “something sexy” present and
wondered what she was thinking buying it. Leah said she thought it would look
sexy on him. Simon pulled out the gift and unfortunately, Leah’s vest had been
switched with another gift. It was underwear. Leah was thoroughly embarrassed
and tried to explain to Simon that it was a mix up but he told her it was fine.
Leah left the office feeling flustered and we ended as Simon smiled to himself.
Episode 51
We started with Aunt Jack telling Clark that she could not
help Clark with the shop as much because she was taking care of Jigs seemed a
little depressed lately. Aunt Jack then asked Clark if he was going to pick up
Leah and Clark said that he was waiting for Leah’s message to tell him that she
was almost done.
Clark went to get Leah at the office and she arrive with the
laptop that Simon had given her. Clark was alarmed because he thought the gift
was a little too much. He told Leah that he was sure that there was a perfect
explanation why her boss had given her a laptop. Leah told him about the coffee
incident between her and Simon when they met and explained that Simon had
bought a laptop to make up for damaging the one she had. Clark understood then
commented that maybe was a dirty old man who liked her. Leah laughed and said
that it was not the case since her boss was neither old nor dirty.
As they left Leah’s office, Leah saw Simon waiting for his
car and she pointed him out to Clark telling him that he has her boss. Clark
was taken aback when he saw Simon and he told Leah that Simon was rich,
handsome and he had given her a laptop. Leah asked him if he was jealous and
Clark admitted to feeling jealous of Simon. He asked Leah if there was any reason for him
to feel jealous and Leah assured him that there was none. She added that he was
just an overachiever who had been promoted when he was too young because he was
a genius too.
As they went home, Leah told Clark that she felt stressed
because of her excess work load at work and their wedding plans. She apologized
to Clark since she was always busy and he had to do the wedding planning by
himself. Clark told her that he was okay because they were one so whatever she
was doing, she was doing for both of them so that their family could prosper.
Leah relayed to Mr. Sol her guilt of letting Clark do the
wedding planning by himself because she was too busy and Mr. Sol told her that
since she was doing it for both of them, there was no need for her to feel that
way. He also added that he missed Leah’s mother, Rona.
Rona finally flew back to the Philippines with her son and
called Aunt Jack to tell her that she was there already. They met for coffee
and she told Miss Jack about her plans to reconnect with her family and how she
planned to go see them at the tenement. Aunt Jack told her not to show up there
because Mr. Sol’s heart was still weak and he could have a relapse if he saw
her. Rona said that she would seek out her children first.
Aunt Jack went to see Clark and told him that Rona was
already back in the Philippines. Rona went to visit Clark at the furniture shop
and thanked Clark for taking care of her daughter. She also asked him to help
her so that she could talk to Leah. Clark told her that he could not promise
her anything but he would try to talk to Leah.
Leah’s coworker asked Simon why he was being so hard on Leah
and always asked her to do revisions to her work. He told her that it was
because he thought she had a potential and wanted to train her to be a good
copy writer.
Simon took his strictness with Leah to another level and
kept asking her to re do her presentations and think out better concepts for
the account that she was now handling.
Clark went to the tenement to talk to Miss Lulu about the
wedding venue and passed by to see Mr. Sol. Mr. Sol thanked Clark for taking
care of the wedding preparations and asked him to be patient with Leah as she
dealt with her work.
Rona rented a town house and invited Aunt Jack to see it.
Rona told Aunt Jack that she had a plan to get closer to Leah by offering to
help pay for their wedding so she told Aunt Jack to ask Clark to talk to Leah
about it.
Rona then went to the tenement and saw Tiffany along with
Gabby and Tolayts. She hid herself so that they could not see her but she cried
as she watched the three of them.
Aunt Jack went to see Clark and told him about Rona’s plan
to help pay for their wedding. Clark told her that he was sure Leah would not
agree. Aunt Jack however asked Clark to tell Leah that her mother was there
since the news would be better received if they came from her.
At work, Simon was not happy with Leah’s presentation once
more and said that it lacked a wow factor. He had also asked her to do a photo shoot and after going over the
budget, he told Leah that the company was duping her so he asked her to slash
off 50% present of the budget. Leah thought it would not be okay since she had already signed the deal so she told Simon to get the get the money from
her pay. Simon told her not to act like a martyr because he was training her to
be tough so that people would not take advantage of her. He told her that
although she was also planning for her wedding, she should work on advancing
her career which could take her to new places and would never leave her.
Leah ran into Clark’s arms when he went to get her after a
stressful day at work. Clark hugged her but sat her back down to tell her that
her mother was back and wanted to see her. Leah told Clark that their life
without her mother and she did not want Rona back into their lives because she
would ruin everything.
When they got home, Mama Lulu said that their wedding
outfits were ready and they were scheduled for a fitting the next morning. Leah
said that she needed to work so they rescheduled the fitting for the following
evening.
Leah was thinking about her mother’s return to the
Philippines and when Tiffany asked what was wrong, she did not tell her
anything. That was where we ended.
