Barbie Forteza, David Licauco topbill first big screen project in "That Kind of Love"

 

Barbie Forteza stars as Milagros Maharlika, renowned dating coach and certified psychologist, has embarked on an extraordinary journey of transformation with Adam De Dios, played by David Licauco. He is the CEO of a prestigious shipping company. Their story, unfolding amidst the hustle of corporate life and the intricacies of the heart, has captured the essence of finding love in unexpected places.

 

Mila, known for her expert profiling skills and unwavering belief in the power of love, met Adam by chance in a favorite restaurant. Their initial encounter sparked a series of events that challenged Adam's belief in his own perfection and led Mila to confront her own doubts about love's complexities.

 

Adam, a driven executive who embodies success and control, initially dismissed Mila's insighits about his inability to maintain stable relationships. However, after witnessing Mila's matchmaking prowess at a friend's wedding, Adam approached her with a unique proposition. He requested Mila's assistance in finding his perfect match, albeit under the condition that she temporarily serve as his corporate secretary to accommodate his demanding schedule.

 

 

 
 
 
 

 

 

Their journey together as boss and secretary began with skepticism and clashed ideologies. Mila's optimistic view clashed with Adam's pragmatic approach to life and love. Yet, through working closely together, Adam began to appreciate Mila's perspective, gradually understanding that his pursuit of perfection might have blinded him to the beauty of falling in love.

 

As their professional relationship evolved, so did their personal dynamics. Mila's coaching sessions not only helped Adam overcome his reservations but also allowed him to acknowledge his own imperfections. Conversely, Adam's insights challenged Mila's idealistic notions of love, prompting her to question her beliefs.

 

Their story reached a pivotal moment when Adam, on the verge of finding a match through Mila's guidance, proposed a unique test. He simulated a date scenario with Mila to assess his readiness for a real relationship. Throughout this simulated date, both Mila and Adam gradually realized that their feelings for each other had deepened beyond their professional roles.


Despite this realization, Mila, bound by her professional ethics, initially resisted Adam's advances, asserting that he would always be her client. However, Adam's heartfelt confession and demonstration of understanding towards Mila's beliefs marked a turning point. He not only acknowledged his feelings for her but also showcased his newfound ability to profile her in return, demonstrating a deep emotional intelligence that transcended their professional beginnings.

 

In a poignant moment of role reversal, Adam declared his intention to pursue Mila romantically, showcasing a growth that mirrored their shared journey. He expressed gratitude for her guidance and announced the end of their professional partnership, asking Mila for a chance to start anew on a personal level.

 

As their story continues to unfold, Mila and Adam stand as testaments to the transformative power of love and understanding. Their journey serves as a reminder that sometimes, love finds us in the most unexpected of ways, challenging us to grow and evolve in ways we never imagined.
