Grabe, it was so fun. Parang na-miss ko yung ganung vibe sa set na talagang direk and I were just talking about that, my character, ‘Okay, what do you want sa character mo? What do you want to make the audience feel?’” she shared during pH Care’s 20th anniversary event held last August 16 at the Glorietta Activity Center in Makati City.</p><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/CvHLsXHvacw/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A698644.1000003815%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="881" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-0" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><a href="http://v"><strong>READ: Donny Pangilinan, Belle Mariano to star in primetime series ‘Can’t Buy Me Love’<br/></strong></a></div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-1" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/CwACYCog_Qh/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A1%2C%22os%22%3A698655.8000001907%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="881" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-1" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>As one of the recently launched celebrity ambassadors of pH Care, Belle shared how grateful she is for all the blessings that she has been receiving for the past few years, including another series. </p><p>“Wow, actually, I’ve been looking forward to do this teleserye, something ever since talaga I’ve been wanting to do.
