Halik (TV series) Drama
Halik (Lit: Kiss / English: Betrayal) is a 2018 Philippine drama television series starring Jericho Rosales, Yen Santos, Sam Milby and Yam Concepcion. The series premiered on ABS-CBN's Primetime Bida evening block and worldwide via The Filipino Channel on August 13, 2018, replacing Since I Found You.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

he Beginning Halik is a story of two marriages, marred by temptation, discontentment, misunderstandings, and other relationship problems.

This fictional teleserye follows the lives of two childhood friends, Jacky Montefalco (Yen Santos) and Lino Bartolome (Jericho Rosales), torn apart by a vengeful man and then thrust together by a cruel twist of fate, and betrayal.

Jacky is the heiress of MonteCorp Furniture, a renowned furniture establishment in the Philippines and Asia. She is the only daughter of Mauro and Loida Montefalco (Precious Lara Quigaman), prominent members of society in the country and owners of MonteCorp. Jacky learns early on that she is not the natural offspring of the man she thought was her father. Nevertheless, she longs for her adoptive father’s acceptance.

Mauro Montefalco (Romnick Sarmenta) is a cruel man who kills his wife’s lover in a jealous rage, and raises her daughter as his legal child. This is as far as his benevolence goes as he is extremely cruel and dismissive to his daughter. Though he keeps up with the filial appearances to save his face, he dislikes his daughter and directs his anger on her and the Bartolome family who he blames for his unhappiness.

Agustin “Gustin” Bartolome (Allan Paule) is a talented furniture designer whose pieces are much sought after. It is through Agustin that Loida meets her lover, Robert Oliva. Loida is the suffering wife of the domineering Mauro. The couple fall in love. Loida attempts to leave Mauro to join Robert but is killed. Jacky is the fruit of their relationship.

MonteCorp MonteCorp, originally the Ybañez Furniture of Cebu, is a well known furniture company founded by the Ybañez family, Loida’s parents. Close family friend and furniture designer, Gustin Bartolome designs their furniture products, and when Mauro takes over the reins of Ybañez Furniture after his in-laws retire, he keeps Gustin in his employ.

Years later and rebranded as MonteCorp, the company expands into the Asian market, but their financial growth and success are marred by his maltreatment of his furniture workers. Neither does he give credit to his designers for their creations. In a labor disagreement with his workers, Gustin Bartolome is killed in a suspicious warehouse fire. Mauro steals Gustin’s portfolio, a worn out sketch book containing numerous drawings of furniture that have not yet been executed, all signed by the designer and dedicated to his family. It is this sketch book that Gustin was searching for when the fire started in the factory’s storage and lost his life.

Gustin’s death results to a parting of ways and bitterness between the Bartolomes and the Montefalcos, and the childhood best friends and teenage sweethearts part ways.

Years pass. Agustin’s son, Lino establishes a furniture design group called Dos Disenyos. His modern, fast forward designs catch the attention of the younger market and he becomes a serious contender to MonteCorp’s market share. Lino is certain MonteCorp is using his father’s personal sketches but is not able to prove it because of the missing portfolio. He suspects Mauro is responsible for his father’s death.

Before the tragic fire that took his father’s life, Lino spent many years watching his father sketch as he explained each design details and the inspiration behind them. It is this intimate knowledge of his father’s designs that Lino is able to recognize his father’s personal sketches among MonteCorp’s award winning pieces.

Lino and Jade Years later Lino falls deeply in love and marries Jade Flores (Yam Concepcion). And like other couples, have plans and dreams of their future together as a family. They suffer the loss of their first child from a late term miscarriage, an event that significantly impacts Jade. The loss triggers a Postpartum depression, as Jade begins to suffer mood swings and bizarre behavior, and experiences a restlessness she blames on their home life and the extended family living with them.

Jade longs for the privacy of a house of their own, independent from her in-las. Sharing her house with an extended family becomes a bone of contention between the couple and they argue incessantly over it.

Meanwhile, as he struggles to understand Jade, Dos Disenyos is on the brink of success, distracts him from Jade's anxieties.

Jacky and Ace Meanwhile, Jacky marries Ace Corpuz (Sam Milby), the eldest son of her father’s business partner. Jacky is very much in love with him, despite her suspicions of his womanizing. In fact, Ace is a serial womanizer who is glib enough to get away with his philandering.

Although Ace has no qualms about his liaisons, he becomes very jealous of Lino when they all run into each other during a furniture trade exposition in Bali, Indonesia. The childhood friends had not seen each other since they broke up a decade ago. Ace’s unreasonable jealousy drives him to get back at Lino and he does this the only way he knows how - pursue and seduce Lino’s wife.

The Affair By a cruel twist of fate, Lino and Jacky’s lives collide once more when their spouses, Jade and Ace, are entangled in a scandalous affair. At the same time, Jacky’s mother dies from a self inflicted gunshot to her chest, which Jacky refuses to believe. In fact, Jacky’s suspicions are not far off when it is revealed that Mauro did shoot Loida accidentally, in a fit of rage when Loida tells him she is leaving him. Mauro bribes the Coroner to fake the autopss results.

But days before her death, she returns Gustin’s missing portfolio to Lino and his family. And after years of advising her daughter to defer to her father's wishes, she gives Jacky permission to free herself from her domineering father.

Jacky is baffled by her mother’s suicide but her death leaves Jacky with a larger stake in MonteCorp, a seat in the board and a significant say in the company. This allows Jacky the freedom to resign from her father without compromising her ownership in the firm.

Jacky and Lino experience the heaviest trial in their respective marriages: the devastating discovery of their spouses’ affair.

As Mauro and the Corpuzes escalate their revenge against Dos Disenyos with underhanded tactics and industrial espionage, Jacky uses her clout to thwart their plans. Devastated and heartbroken over Ace’s betrayal, she throws Ace out of their home.

Lino also fights back. He sues Mauro for stealing his father's designs, but the Corpuzes pay the fiscal to drop the case for lack of merit. Completely devastated over Jade’s betrayal, Lino struggles to overcome his feelings for her and focuses on moving on.

The Aftermath As more secrets and scandals are exposed, the two betrayed spouses, Lino and Jacky, join forces to reckon with their respective spouses and attempt to close the painful chapters of their past. Jacky leaves MonteCorp and joins Dos Disenyos and the duo draw in more projects and the company expands even more.

Mauro suffers a debilitating stroke, and the real enemy emerges: Paeng Corpuz. Ace and his father team up to take over MonteCorp, Paeng's plan from the start. They get financing from a mysterious venture capitalist Aliyah Torres who wants to purchase MonteCorp. But unknown to the Corpuzes, Aliyah has another agenda, an axe to grind against Mauro and she intends to destroy MonteCorp with him and the entire Corpuz family. While Mauro is incapacitated, they institute board resolutions that overrules Mauro’s directives despite his majority stock control. Mauro is about to lose MonteCorp to the Corpuzes.

Jacky wrestles with the dilemma: to help her father who rejected her throughout her entire life and save the company founded by her grandparents? or does she turn her back on the people who give her so much grief? Jacky chooses to save the company founded by her grandparents and resigns from Dos Disenyos. This pleases Mauro, who has, since his stroke, a change of heart towards his daughter. Mauro realizes Jacky’s value and thanks her for not giving up on him. Jacky is overwhelmed and they reconcile.

Lino and Jacky also face new challenges: a rekindling of their friendship is complicated by Jade’s pregnancy and the DNA test confirming Lino is the father.

Unexpectedly, a new love interest comes into Jacky’s world, giving rise to Lino's jealousy. But Jade’s pregnancy is tenuous, and so he takes her in because he feels responsible for his child.

Jade, realizing her mistakes, tries her best to make up for her betrayal, but Lino tells her it is too late. When she overhears Lino tell Jacky that he no longer loves Jade as he once did, the painful realization that she lost Lino for good triggers a premature labor and birth of their son. Memories of their first child shake them up. Parenthood prevails as they try to set aside a barrage of emotions resulting from the complications of their relationship.

Lino understands Jacky’s decision and gives his blessings but struggles to control his feelings for her, especially now that her relationship with Yohan Tanaka (Daniel Matsunaga) is serious.

After a month in an incubator, Lino's son ("CJ") finally comes home from the hospital and the Bartolomes welcome the newest member of the family with joyous anticipation of new beginnings. Unfortunately, happiness does not come easy. Jade suffers Postpartum depression and struggles with nursing her son. Determined to win back Lino, she can't accept that he no longer loves her. Emotions run high in a household hoping the worst has past. Ill feelings create conflict within their family and additional stress on her depressed state. His friendship with Jacky gives rise to old jealousies. Try as he might, the current set up is not working well for Lino, who wants to do right for his son, but is unable to get Jade to understand that they are no longer a couple.

Montefalcos vs Corpuzes Meanwhile, Dos Disenyos' first day without Jacky is uneventful. Basté is back as Project Manager and she easily picks up from where Jacky left off. She also shares information she obtained from her investigations.

Over at MonteCorp, Jacky and Mauro's first day back is contentious. They are advised that the Board's legal counsel is preparing to execute documents for a corporate takeover. The Montefalcos are dismayed that the additional infusion of funds from Aliyah dilutes Mauro's and Jacky's majority shares in the company. A larger share bloc composed of Aliyah and the Corpuzes now make up the majority. A Board resolution made possible because Paeng Corpuz had obtained Mauro's signed approval to sell a bloc of shares to Aliyah, while sedated in the hospital after his stroke.

A catfight ensues between Jacky and Aliyah when MonteCorp's production lead advises Jacky that the company's signature designs are being phased out by Aliyah, despite the fact that these are the company's best selling products.

Jacky has Aliyah investigated and learns her real name is Aliyah Vegafria, the only daughter of Manuel Vegafria, an up and coming furniture business in Davao in the early 80s who committed suicide.

Aliyah visits a Columbarium where her father's ashes are inurned. She recalls the painful day her father kills himself in front of her school. In their last conversation, he warns her not to trust Mauro Montefalco. Suffering the trauma of her father's suicide, Aliyah swears her revenge on the Montefalcos.

Something about the name Manuel Vigafria is also vaguely familiar to Mauro. He pays a visit to a former employee inquiring about Manuel, who reminds him about the day the man burst into their boardroom demanding Mauro to return his family's money. Alarmed, he warns Jacky about Aliyah and promises he will update her as he gets credible information. Although Mauro barely recalls the incident, he pays Paeng Corpuz a visit to find out more information, well aware of the fact that in those early days, Paeng Corpuz handled all the trouble shooting and fixed issues.

It turns out that Manuel loses all his family's money from his investments in MonteCorp. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.255.5.35 (talk) 03:29, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
