Because Tanaga was so exhausted taking care of Ashley in the hospital for many days, he was almost not sleeping. He quickly had fallen asleep while Ashley was in his arms. Ashley in the end fell asleep also when she felt her husband sleeping peacefully.
Everyone in the household didn’t dare to disturb the two. Instead, they all left except Inday, the nurse, Tiny and Tanaga’s bodyguard.
It was already night when the couple woke up and both were hungry. Tanaga accompanied Ashley to help her take a bath, put on her clothes and even dried her hair. Ashley was so pampered that she didn’t know what to think.
Every time she stopped Tanaga, he always said to let him do it for her as it might help him regain his memory. Because of this, she just let him do whatever he wanted and followed what Tanaga was saying.
After Tanaga finished clothing her and drying her long hair, he put his own clothes on and then carried Ashley downstairs.
The twins were already downstairs and playing with Grandma Hanada. She was happy seeing Tanaga carrying Ashley and not allowing her to use a wheelchair. "Hahaha! Your mommy and daddy are here already, so I will give you two to them," Grandma Hanada cooed to the twins who were awake and had their eyes wide open.
As soon as Tanaga put Ashley down on the sofa, Harumi and Juanita – the nurse – gave the twins to Tanaga and Ashley. Tanaga had a big smile on his lips while taking his two sons.
Inday and Mrs. Gusman were in the kitchen cooking dinner. When they heard Tanaga’s voice playing with the twins, they took a peak to take pictures of Tanaga with his sons.
"It makes me happy to see them like that. How I wish this won’t change, and the happiness will be everlasting in the whole family," Inday uttered, sobbing.
Mrs. Gusman held her shoulders. "Let’s just pray to the Lord – that’s the most we can do. Their happiness is most important." When she turned around, Inday also turned around to continue what they were cooking.
Mr. Gusman, Butler Ruffy, Tiny, Arnel and Arnold were in the guest house at the back of the house where Mr. and Mrs. Gusman were living. Mr. Gusman was playing chess with Ruffy while the three were watching basketball games on a Filipino channel.
Who would think that they weren’t related by blood? Mr. Gusman and Butler Ruffy had been close to each other from the moment they met.
While Tiny was like an older brother to the two, there was never a time they treated Inday and him differently. Even Juanita, the nurse of the twins who they just knew for a short time, was treated like family.
No matter what happened, Tiny promised that he wouldn’t leave Ashley and her family. Mrs. Gusman treated Inday like she was her daughter and taught her everything she knew.
One time, Ashley said to her mother that she was planning to find Inday a partner while they were still in America. But Inday rejected it when Mrs. Gusman asked her about it. "No need. I’m fine with being single and serving Madam Ashley. The twins are here so I’ll just treat them as my sons. Hehe!" Inday jokingly sang, but her face was serious. That made Ashley and Mrs. Gusman forget what they were planning to do.

After a week, Ashley’s state had improved and didn’t need a wheelchair every time Tanaga and her were going to the office. When they were about to leave the office, Ashley called Sato and talked to him. "Sato, give an invitation for Hoshi and Fumika. We’ll be grilling in our house this weekend. If you’re available come too and you can bring a friend if you want to," Ashley proclaimed, smiling, while Tanaga was just silent and didn’t even care.
When Sato heard this, he suddenly screamed, "Is this true? Oh my God! I’m gonna see the princes of my life at last!" The girly boy’s shouts caused Tanaga to raise an eyebrow.
Ashley and Sato were shocked when Tanaga spoke. He stared darkly at Sato. "You! I’m warning you! Don’t you ever dare touch my sons, or else I’ll bury you alive? Do you understand?" Tanaga furiously declared while his face was stern.
Sato paused from his excitement before standing up like a manly man. "Yes, Sir Jones! Don’t worry I won’t let them see my girly side when they grow up," Sato promised in a macho tone.
"Good to hear!" Then Tanaga went back to the document he was reading.
"But, Sir Jones, can you let me act like this in front of my princes while they are still babies and they are still unconscious of their surroundings? Please?!" Sato begged and changed his tone into a gayish one.
When Tanaga gave him a deadly glare, Sato immediately left sorrowfully.
When Sato left, the two looked at each other before... "Hahaha!" They laughed loudly at Sato’s reaction.
Koji just arrived from Europe and was currently outside the door, ready to knock.
Instead of continuing his knocking, Koji decided to head first to the hotel and rest. He was excited to see Ashley – that’s why he went straight to the office. But when he heard the loud laugh coming from the inside of the room, he felt his chest hurt.
He turned to Fumika and Sato who were looking at him while he was contemplating if he would knock on the door or not.
"Please don’t tell CEO Jones and President Gusman that I have already arrived," Koji declared. Then he turned around and left the premises.
Sato raised his brow when he heard what Koji called Ashley. "What do you mean ’President Gusman’? Tch! It’s Jones! Oi!" Sato aggressively mumbled while heading towards the accounting department to tell Mr. Hoshi that they were invited to their boss’ house.
Mr. Hoshi was delighted when he heard what Sato had said. "Please tell my boss ’thank you very much’ and I’ll inform my wife when we get home. I’m sure she will also be delighted."
And Mr. Hoshi wasn’t wrong since Celia was delighted too when he told her.
