It turns out that
the characters of the show were named after Mobile Legends heroes.

The character of Kisses was called Miya while Rita’s character was named Layla.
Cris Villanueva played the father known as Harley.
The family driver Franco (played by Christopher Roxas) ended up being the third
party in the relationship of the couple.
Esmeralda was the name of Franco’s ex-girlfriend.
Freya and Aldous were the names of the two children adopted by Harley.
Miya, Layla, Harley, Esmeralda, Freya, and Aldous are all names of heroes in

According to the “Ipaglaban Mo” Facebook page, this is the description
of Kisses Delavin’s character named Miya: “Anak
ni Layla na nagsikap sa pag-aaral at
sinuklian ang mga sakripisyo ng kanyang ina.”
In Mobile Legends, Miya is the Moonlight Archer and a “marksman.”
