Hidden Marriage: Mr. President, I adore You Chapter 55
Perez wore a grim face habang pinapakinggan si Barbara. Barbara was sobbing real hard habang kinukwento niya ang buong pangyayari. Napabugtong hininga si Perez, gusto niyang magalit but there was something in his heart that feels off. Hindi niya mawari kung ano but, he felt a little unbothered.Hindi niya alam kung kailan nagsimula but, as time goes by pakiramdam niya lumalayo ang loob niya kay Barbara. Hindi niya alam kung dahil ba ito sa sama ng loob dahil mas pinili nito si Xenon kaysa sa kan’ya but as of the moment, wala na siyang nararamdam na kahit anong romantic feelings dito.Oo, minahal niya si Barbara. He really felt that he really loved her but was that it? Ganoon nalang ba iyon kadali? Na kalimutan ito? Was it because he loved Madeleine so much now that it made him forget Barbara? Or maybe his love towards his first love was that shallow. Naguguluhan siya, at saka parang pinapalabas na what he was feeling towards Barbara in the past was only superficial.Now, he had realiz

Nasa may sala si Madeleine at naghihintay kay Perez. Ngunit, sumapit ang alas onse ng gabi ay wala pa rin ito. Hindi na niya namalayan na sa kakahintay niya ay nakatulog na pala siya sa sofa. Narinig na lang lamang niya ang pagbukas ng pinto kaya dahan-dahan niyang iminulat ang kan’yang mga mata. “Madeleine?”rinig niyang tawag ni Perez sa kan’ya. Madeleine’s head was hazed and her sight was still blurry from being woken up ngunit pinilit pa rin niya ang sarili na tumingala para tignan si Perez. Nang makita niya ang mukha ni Perez at ang banayad nitong ngiti habang nakatingin sa kan’ya ay agad nawala ang kan’yang antok at kusang din namuo ang malaking ngiti sa kan’yang mga labi. Perez took off his suit coat and put it at the arm rest of the sofa bago siya umupo. Bumilis ang tibok ng puso ni Madeleine nang hawakan siya nito sa pisngi. Madeleine closed her eyes, nuzzling her own cheek at his warm palm. “How’s your day? You look tired,” tanong ni Perez habang mahinang hinimas-himas an

Perez gave out a cold aura as he was shuffling the papers on his hands. Hindi mawala sa isip niya si Madeleine. Dalawang araw na ang nakakalilipas at hanggang ngayon ay hindi niya pa rin mawari kung bakit iba ang kinikilos ng kan’yang asawa. Pakiramdam niya ay unti-unting lumalayo ang loob ni Madeleine sa kan’ya. It was like she was hiding something and that she was distancing herself from him for some reason.Perez grew anxious by that, may mali ba siyang nagawa? Ngunit kapag lumalapit at naglalambing siya rito, hindi naman ito umaayaw. She let him kiss her and hugged her like everything was fine but the thing was, Perez knew too well that something between them was going downhill. “Mr. President, the meeting is about to start. We need to go now,” pag-a-anunsyo ni Francis. Perez was in his bad mood since yesterday, Francis was being too careful these days but today’s meeting was important kaya hindi na puwedeng ipa-schedule pa niya itong muli. After all, the agenda for today’s me

“Why are you at the hospital, Madeleine? May nangyari ba sa iyo? Is anything wrong?” tanong ni Terrence sa kan’ya pagkatapos nilang kumain sa isang pribadong restaurant. Bakas sa mukha nito ang pag-aalala.“Ah, wala. Para lang iyon sa regular checkup ko,” sagot niya sabay iwas ng tingin, Uminom siya ng tubig at hindi tinignan sa mata si Terrence. Tinitigan ni Terrence si Madeleine at hindi nagsalita, na para bang sinusuri niya ito kung nagsasalita ba ito ng totoo. Mayamaya pa ay napabugtong hininga ito. “You are not a good liar, Madeleine. I saw it, it was wrong for me to ask knowing you usually don’t want anybody knows whenever there’s something wrong. Alam ko na ayaw mong maging pabigat but it just hurts those people around you na pinapahalagahan ka. I am your friend, am i? Gusto ko lang malaman kung okay ka, ayaw kong malaman isang araw na may nangyari na pa lang masama sa iyo,” nag-aalalang sabi ni Terrence kay Madeleine. Napakagat ng labi si Madeleine nang marinig iyon at hin

Because of what happened, Barbara’s heart was shattered knowing na pinagtaksilan siya ng kan’yang pinakamamahal. She had loved Xenon for almost ten years without setting her eyes to others. She always believed na si Xenon na talaga ang mamahalin at makakasama niya sa buong buhay niya.Pero nang dahil sa nangyari, bumagsak ‘di lang ang kan’yang puso kundi ang pagtitiwala niya rito.Ngunit nang makita niya ito sa party ay nanumbalik ang kan’yang pagmamahal sa dating kasintahan. She thought she already gave up on loving him but now seeing his haggard appearance and dark circles under his eyes, Barbara can’t help feeling pity towards him.Nang makita siya ni Xenon ay agad na nanlaki ang mga mata nito. Tila ba nabuhayan ang pagkatao nito nang makita si Barabara at agad itong lumapit sa kan’ya. “Honey, can we talk?” Xenon asked hoarsely.Barbara’s heart wretched at the sight of Xenon’s weary and sick look. Additionally, nang tawagin siya nito sa kanilang endearment ay tuluyan nang lumambo

Hindi pa natapos ang party ay umuwi na sila Perez at Madeleine. Contrary to Madeleine’s worry, after those rude remarks from Felipe ay wala nang nagtangkang insultuhin o mag-isip na kalabanin si Madeleine. It was a peaceful and normal party, ngunit dahil napansin ni Perez na medyo hindi na maganda ang pakiramdam ni Madeleine ay agad niya itog inalalayan papauwi.Lumipas ang ilang araw ay hindi naging maganda ang pakikitungo ni Madeleine kay Perez. Maski man siya ang naiinis sa sarili kung bakit niya tinatarayan pa minsan-minsan o ‘di kaya’y ‘di niya papansinin ang asawa, ngunit sa tuwing lumalapit ito sa kan’ya ay parati niyang naaamoy ang pamilyar na pabango sa katawan nito.She knew she shouldn’t be like this, pero talagang naiinis siya. She was not that sensitive before, she wondered what was going on with her these past few weeks.Akala niya ay maiinis na sa kan’ya si Perez dahil napaka-moody niya ngunit nakakapagtaka lang dahil mas lalo itong nag-aalala sa kan’ya.Inaalala pa lan

Hindi makapagsalita si Madeleine, para bang may bumabara sa kan’yang lalamunan and she doesn’t have the courage to speak up. Madeleine unconsciously fumbled the hem of her shirt and hummed to answer his call. “Are you okay?” Rinig niyang tanong ni Perez at may pag-aalala sa boses nito. Strangely enough, she somewhat kind of heard his footsteps like he was walking up the stairs with his breath slightly rugged, probably through the exertion of movements. Madeleine found herself relieved and let go of all her worries before answering. “Yes, ikaw?” “Hmmm,” sagot lamang ni Perez. ‘Di na napigilan ni Madeleine at siya na mismo ang unang nagsalita tungkol sa issue. She explained, “N-nakita mo ba ang balita? Magkaibigan lang talaga kami ni Terrence. Nagkita lang kami at kasama ang mama niya. Pinakilala niya lang ako bilang katrabaho. Kung ano man ang nababasa mo online, Perez, sana h’wag mong paniwalaan.” Hindi alam ni Madeleine kung paano niya ii-explain kay Perez ang katotohanan basta a

“You saved me, Perez. I am so sorry to bother you when you are together with your wife,” agad nagsalita si Barbara nang makapasok na siya sa kotse at umupo sa backseat. Madeleine peaked at the rear-view mirror and was suddenly shy when she was caught by Barbara for looking at her.“Hello, you are Madeleine, right? I am Barbara, by the way. Perez’s bestfriend,” pakilala ni Barbara sabay lahad ng kan’yang kamay.It would be rude to not accept the handshake kaya agad tinanggap ni Madeleine ang kamay nito at nag-handshake silang dalawa.“Why did you do, Barbara? Ito ang unang beses na naglayas ka, what are even doing?” pagalit na tanong ni Perez ngunit may halong pag-aalala sa boses nito. Tahimik lang si Madeleine at nakikinig.“Nag-away lang kami ni Dad, okay? Maliit na hindi pagkakaunawaan lang,” sagot naman ni Barbara.“Small misunderstanding? Is it enough for you to run away? Just like that?” hindi makapaniwalang wika ni Perez habang nagmamaneho.Hindi na pinansin ni Barbara si Perez

“At talaga ngang sinusubok mo ako, Barbara! You are being insensible. I’ve raised you, binigay ko sa’yo ang magandang buhay ngayon ay susuwayin mo lang ako. I can’t believe nakipagbalikan ka sa lalaking iyon. I supported you before dahil you said Xenon will get the inheritance. Now, what? He cheated on you; he already loses the trust with some of the board members!” galit na sabi ng nasa kabilang linya.Napakagat ng labi si Barbara at pinapakalma ang kan’yang galit na ama. “Dad, just trust me one more time, okay? I love Xenon, you know that. He also loves me, gano’n naman siguro ang pag-ibig di’ba, Dad? This is just a challenge that we need to conquer. Xenon had always been the one who was cast aside from any business matters, I want to give him a chance to prove himself. And if I can help him, I will do this to make him happy. Let’s support him one more time.” Pagkukumbinsido ni Barbara sa kan’yang ama.“You.. foolish child!” sigaw naman ng kan’yang ama. “Don’t be fooled with that ma

Walang magawa si Madeleine kundi tignan kung ano na ang nangyayari sa social media. Napahilot siya sa kan’yang sintido nang makitang walang ginawang statement ang MAHARLIKA dito. Although hindi na ito masiyadong nakakalat sa social media marami pa rin ang nag-aabang na article tungkol sa kung ano talaga ang ugnayan nilang dalawa ni Terrence.Hindi na niya mapigilan na tawagan si Terrence.“Mady.” Nakailang ring pa lamang ay agad na sinagot ni Terrence ang tawag ni Madeleine.This was the first time that Madeleine called him, deep in his heart, he was secretly happy.Ngunit hindi pinansin ang masayang tono sa boses ni Terrence at agad niyang isinabi ang pakay ng kan’yang pagtawag.“Terrence, wala pa bang statement ang agency natin about sa issue sa ating dalawa? Dapat na nating i-clear ‘yung article ano nalang iisipin ng mga tao. Baka maniwala silang lahat na may relasyon talaga tayo,” sabi niya kay Terrence.Narinig niya ang pagbugtong hininga ni Terrence sa kabilang linya. “Actually,
