"Yes, okay let's go!" Celestine replied as she smile, when they arrived in Okada Manila, they were greeted by the staff while heading to the venue.

People are starting to go and greet them when they arrived, their friends, relatives and other colleagues are also present, the emcee started the program already since Celestine was already there.

"May we please call on, the lola of the only princess of the Marcoses, former Madam first lady Imelda Marcos to have the honors in introducing her granddaughter."

Imelda stood up with Matthew holding her hands and guiding the way towards the stage.

"My greetings! First, I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Almighty God because he didn't failed us, he let us see our only princess in the family. My family and I thank all of you for being here for this momentous event. After a decade of suffering and finding the unica hija of the family, finally, she has been found.

She smiled genuinely to all of the guest while heading to her grandmother.

Imelda kissed her granddaughter's forehead, "Gorgeous, are you real apo?" She jokingly asked.

Celestine giggles, "Aw thanks Abu!" She said.

"Very beautiful right?" Imelda asked the guests and they nodded and agreed so quickly which made Celestine feel flattered.

Imelda chuckled, "Okay now, I will give this microphone to the parents of my apo, Irene and Greggy to also give words.." she said, Irene and Greggy went to the stage as they kissed their daughter's cheeks and forehead.

"Good afternoon, everyone. I know that most of you were aware that my daughter got lost, but thankfully God never let her in danger for the past 10 years that I'm not beside her, we're not beside her rather. I would like to express my gratitude to the nuns who took care of our daughter for almost 11 years, Sister Theressa and Sister Anabelle. No words can express how much I'm thankful na hindi niyo pinabayaan ang anak ko, tatanawin po namin itong isang malaking utang na loob." Irene remarked as she smiled wholeheartedly to the nuns.
