A Virgin for the CEO Chapter Sixteen
“No, Tommy. That couldn't be right,” she said. She was finally able to confront him that night after dinner and their mother was back to bed very early. Her chirpiness got her tired earlier than usual so she wasn't even able to do her nightly Bible reading routine. She pulled Tommy out of the house to make sure none of their voices didn't reach their mother, in case she wasn't deeply asleep yet. It really shook both of them to the core when they found out she was lightly sleeping that night.“How did you find out? They promised me they wouldn't let you know anything at the bar.” “They didn't. They only told me where you went but, I told you, I was making a scene so they'd tell me something. I didn't think it was him. I thought it was one of his friend's friends.”“Then how—”“I went back very early in the morning before you got up,” he confessed, It was still dark, and I... the door was unlocked. I had to find out who did that to my sister. I need to know... if he even recognized y

One month later, a new benefit was given to the workers.It was a health check-up for everyone conducted at the health center. And for the first time, it was mandatory.A mobile laboratory arrived for lab tests. The Quirozes wanted to make sure that everyone was in good health so if anyone turned out to be otherwise, they could then be treated early.Urine and stool samples were taken. The stool test became a source of puns for everyone.It took a few days to finish checking up on all tenants since there were older ones who took their sweet time to visit the center.But when Arianna received the result of her exams, something caught her attention.She'd had a pregnancy test? It was a pregnancy test—clear in the wording. And the result was negative.She already knew she wasn't pregnant. She got her period in time. In fact, she had been horrified to see the first spots of blood in her underwear because it didn't even occur to her during the whole confusing period since that night that s

“Mama, do you hear that? Is someone singing outside?”Arianna heard Tommy's loud question while she was already in the bedroom getting ready for bed. Their mother was still in the living room and reading her Bible, while Tommy was in the kitchen. He volunteered to do the marinade for the chicken they were going to cook in the morning.She frowned.Now that she heard Tommy, she could also hear the noise from outside of guitars playing.“Son of a—”“Tommy!”“Duck. I meant duck, Mama.”You better not cuss in my house.”“No, Mama. I'll do it outside.”“Tommy!”“Okay, not even outside, okay?”Arianna couldn't help but grin. Someone was indeed outside and was serenading her, therefore so her brother was being an idiot.Yes, serenading a woman still happens in provincial villages, especially here in the hacienda. She had been serenaded a few times. Tommy was seven the first time it happened, and he threw a giant tantrum and howled like a banshee that the poor teeners didn't even get to step

Ruel was back the next day.He was with a different companion. It took a moment of argument before their mother invited him in because Tommy had reverted back to his three-year-old self, and he was told to stay in his room until the visitors had left.Ruel basically repeated what he said last night when she told him again that she wasn't ready to accept suitors. He would visit her every time he was on his provincial vacation. And that he was not ready to give up.“Your mother doesn't even know you're coming here,” she said.“I told her last night.”“What did she say?” she asked, a bit surprised.“She said she respects who I chose to like and pursue.”“She isn't happy.” That wasn't even a guess. Yna knew.“Mom doesn't interfere in my personal life.”She didn't reply. There was something else. She was in an elimination contest with him and a bunch of other students almost twelve years ago for a provincial meet type of contest. Each public school was given a chance to send a candidate p

“Arianna!”Arianna turned towards the loud call and was surprised to see Ruel climbing out of the driver's seat of his truck. Then he ran towards them, a huge grin on his face, laughing like he won the lottery.“What are you doing here?” she asked.“I finally caught up with you. I was waiting right here. I was here yesterday, too, but I was in a different spot so I didn't see you. They said this is where you start selling your goods every morning.”It took a moment for her to understand what he was actually saying. “You waited here for us?”“Yes,” he replied while nodding his head repeatedly, too. Like 'yes' wasn't enough.“What for?” she began to get down the tribike. She was pedaling today because Tommy had to be at the fishponds early.“I can't visit you on nights anymore. They wouldn't let us in the gates. I have to be in the store when it opens a little later this morning to stand in for Dad while they are still in Manila so I could only leave late in the afternoons except on Sun

But in the next few moments, Arianna remained petrified. She could hear Ruel's worried voice calling her name, but she couldn't react.“Arianna? Arianna? What happened to you?”Her eyes finally focused on his worried face. She tried to smile but failed.“I seem to be right about Mt. Olympus, huh?”She tried to smile again as she moved her numbed limbs, but she cringed when he placed the bills in her hand.“Go home,” he told her gently. “That's where he'll get your goods.”Goods. She cringed more, her insides trembling because, to her, goods meant something more than her vegetables. But she managed to reply. “Y-Yeah.”“Arianna? Are you okay? You're very pale.”She looked at him. “I'm going to be fine. I'm going home, anyway, so I can take a rest.”“What's wrong? You don't look good. I'd like to take you home,” he said, looking in the direction of the guards at the gates.“I'm okay. I'm feeling better. I guess I stayed up too late to sleep last night,” she lied. “'Bye, Ruel. Thanks for
A Virgin for the CEO Chapter Twenty-Two
He brought her to that house of that unforgettable night.This house was also far from the mansion and other structures and tenant housing except our little hut, which was also far from the same, so it was very private from any prying eyes. It had its own exit through a private road at the back only accessible to its owner. He could get in and out of the hacienda without anyone the wiser.According to rumors, Señor Sylverio had this house built for his introverted son so he could avoid visitors he did not want to face. It was when his mother lived here way back when he was still twelve years old. He could move whichever way, whenever, without anyone noticing in the mansion.Doña Lucilla always had guests and held parties, and this irritated her son. He allegedly showed dislike towards her liberal lifestyle and her circle of friends.He disagreed and argued with his father, too, but as a necessary evil to get work done. He didn't have and would not show patience for his mother as he wou

“I didn’t know what I was doing... I was so drunk,” he continued to explain himself. “I was angry about some-thing that night and I took it out on you. I didn't mean to hurt you, Arianna. Do you hear me?”Of course, she could hear him, but she couldn’t speak as she wrestled with her own emotions, her tears. He pulled her closer again, tightening his arms around her shaking body. But his image remained behind her eyelids as she closed her eyes and willed herself to calm down.His presence, the warmth of his body, the familiarity of his smell... was threatening to crush her sanity.Why was he acting as if he cared? It was making her feel things she didn’t have a right to feel. But the relief to know he wasn’t angry at her was overwhelming that she couldn’t breathe.Again, she remembered how gentle he'd suddenly become when, despite his drunkenness, he’d noticed how frightened she was that night. She took deep gulps of breath and the sobs subsided.A few moments passed, and she tried to
