Everyone in his family expected him to follow in the footsteps of his father and grandfathers – to be a playboy! However, they had no idea he has no girlfriend since birth. He’s not gay and he wasn’t afraid of women. He couldn’t hurt a single woman, because of his mother! His grandmother would scold him for being a mama’s boy, but he wasn’t a mama’s boy either. He just wanted to make his mother happy after she suffered so much from his father’s betrayal.

Jacob hated Blair at first sight. The word heartbreaker was written on his face, and Jacob feared that Blair would target his mother. Although his mother was already in her fifties, she didn’t look like one, and a young man’s attention would surely make her heart flutter like a schoolgirl. Jacob clenched his fist while Blair glanced at his mother for moral support when he ordered to have his tattoo removed!

“Baby, it’s just a tattoo! Common, please be reasonable.” Carmela Gordon reasoned out on behalf of the newly-hired secretary.

Baby? She tried to hide the smile on her lips, but she was amused at how Jacob clenched his jaw after Mrs. Gordon referred to him as a baby. “I’m sorry,” she apologized after she burst out laughing.

“Just like what I said, your tattoo is an issue to me.” He reiterated.

Blair kept quiet while Mrs. Gordon argued with Jacob Gordon regarding her tattoo, and when the waiter arrived, they both stopped. “Thank you, Mrs. Gordon.” She said when Jacob’s mother gestured her to begin eating.

For a moment, they focused on their breakfast, but in no time at all, Jacob was at it again. He glared at Blaire for acting weak in the eyes of his gullible mother. “So, how old are you, Mr. Cuizon?” He had no chance to review the man’s resume because it was his mother who chose him, and as always, he trusted her judgment of character. However, with Blair Cuizon, he began to doubt his mother’s ability to accurately judge a character.

“I’ll be twenty-three this year, Mr. Gordon.” She replied.
