In the Arms of the Enigmatic Billionaire Simula: Divorce
Chapter 1 Divorce "Sign it now." Ang mababa ngunit malamig na boses ang bumungad sa kaniya. Kapapasok lamang niya ng kwarto at naabutan niya ang asawa na walang emosyon ang mukha habang nakatayo sa tabi ng mesa. His finger was pointing to the paper on the table. Audrey felt a lump in her throat when she realized that it was a divorce agreement. Unti-unti siyang nag angat ng tingin sa asawa at mapait na napangiti. So that's it. Ito na 'yon. Ang inaasahan niya sanang magandang balita ay kabaliktaran pala. This was the reason why he called her first thing in the morning which he never did before. Maghapon siyang 'di mapakali at iniisip kung ano ang dahilan bakit siya gusto makausap ng lalake— may kaunting pag-asa na maganda ang sasabihin nito. She was happy all day, anticipating a surprise or good news but it turned out that it was something that would break her. Lawrence is asking for divorce. He's ending their three-year marriage. Halos wala sa sarili na din

Audrey composed herself and walked back to her room after she listened to their conversation. Siguro nga ay tama na ganito na rin talaga ang mangyayari. Sa loob ng panahon na kasal sila ni Lawrence, ginawa rin niya ang best niya para ipakita sa mother-in-law niyang si Thelma na karapat-dapat siya rito. Kahit ang kapatid ni Lawrence na si Leandra ay halos pagsilbihan niya sa desperasyon na matanggap ng mga ito. When Leandra was confined in the hospital because of a car accident, Audrey stayed there with her. Siya ang nag-alaga rito sa loob ng ilang buwan hanggang sa gumaling ito. Kay Thelma naman ay pinagsisilbihan niya ito, sinusunod ang lahat ng utos nito kaya nagmukha na siyang katulong sa mansion ng mga Villafuente. Halos ubusin niya ang sarili para sa pamilyang ito pero sa huli, ito ang maririnig niya. They are all eager to throw her out of their house. Minasama pa ang lahat ng pakikisama niya. This family is something else and maybe, this divorce will be a bles

Paglabas ni Audrey sa mansion ng mga Villafuente ay nakita niya ang sasakyan ni Lucy sa harap. Her bestfriend rolled down the window and giggled when she saw her. Hindi na ito nakapaghintay at bumaba na sa kotse, tinulungan siyang ipasok ang maleta sa backseat saka siya halos hilain papasok sa loob ng kotse. Lucy kissed her on the cheek then beamed at her. "Let's celebrate, girl!" excited nitong sinabi. Napailing na lang si Audrey habang nangingiti. Iba sana ang gustong celebration ni Lucy. Nais sana nito na mag-party sila sa bar at magpakalasing. But she knew that even the divorce meant freedom from her misery for Audrey, hindi pa rin gano'n kaayos ang mood nito para sa gano'ng environment. Kaya sa isang fine dining restaurant na lang sila kumain. The slow music was relaxing, isabay pa ang mainit na pagguhit ng wine sa lalamunan nila. It was comforting which Audrey really needed at that moment. Malaya itong nagkwento sa nangyari kanina tungkol sa pirmahan nila ng d

Naglahad ng kamay ang babae paglapit nito sa kaniya. Audrey looked at her with a calm expression. Hindi siya nag abala na tanggapin ang kamay nito. She ignored that and looked at their faces. Si Gayle naman ay tila napahiya at napalingon kay Lawrence ngunit hindi nito 'yon napansin. "Nalaman ni Lolo ang napagkasunduan nating divorce at gusto niya makasama ka sa dinner tonight. Your phone is turned off and I've been contacting you. Saan ka ba galing? It's hard to reach you kaya pumunta na ako para sunduin ka," mababa ang boses na sinabi ni Lawrence. Audrey shrugged. "Kailangan ko pa i-charge ang phone ko, susunod na lang ako." Ayaw niyang makasama ang dalawa sa maliit na space. Kumunot ang noo ni Lawrence. "Hihintayin na lang kita—" Umiling siya. "No, I can go by myself." Hindi agad nakasagot ang lalake sa pagputol niya sa sasabihin nito. Napasulyap si Audrey kay Gayle na pinagmamasdan sila kapagkuwan ay nilingon muli si Lawrence. "And tomorrow, nine

Malalim ang iniisip ni Lawrence tungkol kay Audrey at titig na titig pa siya rito but he snapped back to reality when a pair of warm hands gently held him. Nilingon ni Lawrence si Gayle na maamo ang mukha na nakatingin sa kaniya. "Okay ka lang ba, Lawrence? You looked hurt... Masakit ba ang tiyan mo? Do you need something?" she asked softly. Umiling si Lawrence at nilingon muli si Audrey. Pagbati ni Audrey sa matandang Villafuente ay umupo siya sa may tabi nito, katapat niya si Lawrence ngunit hindi niya pinansin ang mga ito. But the old man can't ignore them. He snorted disdainfully, hindi tinatago ang iritasyon sa dalawa. Tahimik silang kumain. Halos walang gana si Audrey dahil marami siyang nakain kanina nang kasama niya si Lucy kaya kaunti na lang kinain niya bilang pakikisama sa matanda. Matapos kumain ay nilingon siya nang matanda. "Narinig ko ang kalokohan na ginawa ng apo ko, Audrianna. Huwag ka mag-alala, you're the only one that I recognize as my

Audrey didn't expect na makikita niya ang lalakeng 'yon sa bahay ng kaniyang professor. Kahit nakaalis na ito ay parang ramdam pa rin niya ang presensya nito. Remembering his face and physique, no one would expect him to be in that place. "Kumusta na ang paborito kong estudyante?" Umupo siya sa kaharap nitong upuan at do'n nagsimulang magkwento. Hindi maipinta ang mukha ng professor nang marinig ang mga detalye ng kwento niya tungkol sa naging buhay niya sa tatlong taon na kasal siya kay Lawrence. Napailing-iling ang professor sa mga naririnig. Back then, Audrey was a really excellent student of him. Kaya nga naging paborito niya ito. Kaya gano'n na lang ang panghihinayang niya nang malaman niya na muntik pa nitong hindi matapos ang pag-aaral dahil maagang nagpakasal at nag-asawa. She had a bright future ahead of her but she dropped it all just to be married to a man who treated her badly. Ngayon na magdi-divorce na sila, hindi naman mukhang depressed si Audrey k

Napakurap si Audrey at ilang segundo pa bago nakasagot. Tinanggap niya saglit ang kamay ni Regan Amadeus saka tipid na ngumiti. "Audrey..." aniya. Nagbitaw sila ng kamay at sumulyap ang lalake sa kotse niya bago ito tumango. Inayos ng lalake ang gloves bago siya tinalikuran. "Goodluck, Serenity," he muttered lowly then he went back to his car. Nagsalubong ang kilay ni Audrey. Nakalagay ang second name niya na "Serenity" sa kotse pero hindi siya sanay na tawagin sa gano'ng pangalan. It's weird to hear it from his lips. Maya-maya ay nagkaroon na ng signal na magsisimula na ang karera. Hindi naman puno ang arena. Sa iisang banda lang merong mga tao at karamihan ay galing sa mga mayayamang pamilya. This was just a game for them and an opportunity to bet. Karamihan ng naroon ay gusto lang din makita si Regan Amadeus na mailap sa publiko at ngayong nakita nila na nilapitan nito si Audrey, malaking bagay 'yon. They can't help but to be curious about her especially t

Bago pa makapagsalita si Audrey para sitahin ito sa pagtawag sa kaniya sa ikalawa niyang pangalan ay umalis na sa harap niya si Regan Amadeus. She sighed and watched him faded from everyone's sight, ignoring all the people who wanted to talk to him. May ilan napatingin sa gawi ni Audrey, malamang ay nahihiwagaan kung paano niya nakukuha ang atensyon ng tagapagmana ng mga Vasquez. While they were curious, Audrey was bothered when his voice calling her Serenity kept ringing in her ear. Malamang ay naninibago siya dahil parents niya lang ang tumatawag no'n sa kaniya. Lucy congratulated her enthusiastically. Mayroong pagsasalo-salo na magaganap sa may likod ng arena kung saan may event hall at dahil si Audrey ang champion sa car racing na nangyari, her presence was needed. Marami din ang lumapit sa kaniya at nagpakilala, nagpahatid ng paghanga sa ipinamalas niyang galing sa karera. They settled on the seats reserved for them on the event hall. May salo-salo para sa lahat n

In the Arms of the Enigmatic Billionaire Chapter 79: Not Welcome!
Half an hour ago, Audrey wanted to cook some noodles in the kitchen. Sinubukan niya kaso talagang sumakit ang legs niya dahil sa mga paso niya kaya tinawagan na lang niya ang bestfriend niyang si Lucy. Pagdating nito ay alalang-alala ang babae. Audrey had no choice but to tell everything to Lucy. Lahat ng nangyari ay kinwento niya sa matalik na kaibigan, simula sa nangyari sa kompetisyon, sa pagsabuy ng mainit na tubig ni Leandra sa kaniya, and even the fact that Lawrence went to infirmary with such request and demands.Kaya naman gigil na gigil si Lucy matapos marinig ang buong kwento ng nangyari. "Ang mga hayop na 'yon talaga! 'Yang si Leandra, ayaw ko na talaga sa babae na 'yan noon pa. When you're still her sister in law, she bullied you and treated you as if you are her nanny. Ngayon na divorce ka na sa gagó niyang kuya, talatang pinapakialaman at kinakalaban ka pa rin niya. Ang pangit-pangit talaga ng ugali ng babaeng 'yan, sobra na!"Napailing si Audrey saka bumuntong-hininga.

Agad siyang yumakap sa Kuya Lawrence niya at agad siyang umiyak, hindi pa rin nauubos ang luha mula kanina. "Kuya, please! Palabasin mo ako rito. Ayoko dito! Please, kuya. I don't like it here, I don't belong in this place!" Ang ina niya ay tinignan siya, awang awa at tila nadudurog ang puso para sa anak. "Alalang-alala kami sayo ng kuya mo, Leandra. As soon as we heard the news that you were in trouble, we immediately went to find that bîtch to release you from here, but she refused to let you out no matter what! And that Vasquez, I think he is determined to protect Audrey. And were you even thinking? Bakit kinalaban mo pa talaga si Reina knowing na isa siyang Vasquez!? How dare you mess with their family!" "Mom! I was wrong, I know I was wrong! Please get me out of her quickly! All the news tomorrow will definitely be about me being taken away by the police! How embarrassing would that be? I don't want it! Kuya, you will definitely help me, right?" Punong-puno ng luha ang m
In the Arms of the Enigmatic Billionaire Chapter 77: Triggered
Maingat ang paghawak ni Regan kay Audrey. Tila ba babasagin siya na kailangan talaga ingatan. Kahit sa pagpapasakay nito sa kaniya sa kotse ay talagang dahan-dahan upang hindi masagi ang mga paso niya. After getting in the car, Audrey could see the condition of her legs clearly. After applying ice, her legs were now swollen. Napabuntong hininga siya habang pinagmamasdan iyon. Regan sat in the driver's seat, and he felt a little guilty seeing her wounds even clearer. After all, he was the one who gave Audrey the thermos cup, and he also put the hot water in it. If he hadn't given her the thermos cup, perhaps this situation wouldn't have happened. Wala sanang maitatapon na mainit na tubig si Leandra kay Audrey. There was a deafening silence in the car. Pansin ni Audrey ang malalim na pag iisip ni Regan. "What are you thinking about? Parang ang lalim," aniya sa magaan na boses. He didn't have this expression in the infirmary just now. Could it be because of th
In the Arms of the Enigmatic Billionaire Chapter 76: Release her!
"Keep it on for a while longer," ani Regan, tinutukoy ang ice pack na nagbibigay ginhawa kahit papaano kay Audrey sa sitwasyon niya. After a while, just as the ice was removed, the door of the infirmary was pushed open loudly. Pumasok ang pamilyang Villafuente, nangunguna ang ina nila na sinundan ni Lawrence at Gayle. Kasunod nila ang ama ni Gayle na sumama roon. "You, bitch! Give me back my daughter! Pinadampot mo siya sa mga pulis! Kausapin mo sila ngayon at ipa-release mo si Leandra!" Sinigaw iyon ni Thelma habang dinuduro siya. On the other hand, Lawrence was somewhat calm and rational. Nabigla pa siya mang makita ang lagay ni Audrey ngunit nang makita si Regan Amadeus sa tabi niya ay nagbago ang ekspresyon nito. "Sobra na ang ginawa mo, Audrey! We can apologize to you, mamghihingi ako ng tawad sayo para sa kapatid ko pero kaya hindi mo na kailangan na ipadampot siya sa mga pulis! Call the police now then tell them to release her, then we will negotiate later to
In the Arms of the Enigmatic Billionaire Chapter 76: Burned
Leandra came back to her senses. Napatayo siya, nanlalaki ang mga mata. "No, you can't do that to me!" she screamed like a madman. Tinignan niya ang principal. "You must not call the police on me! If you call the police, my life will be over! Hindi pwede. I am also from the Villafuente family! My brother is on the school board. Hindi niyo pwedeng kalimutan 'yon!" she cried. Absolutely not! Hindi siya papayag. Never in her life did she imagine that she would be brought to the police station.Her eyes were full of tears. They must not call the police! Siya rin ang nag-iisang babaeng anak ng Villafuente. She's their princess and she had all the people's attention in their city. Once they called the police on her and she went to jail, she would be ostracized by all the rich families and she would inevitably become the target of their scorn. Pati pamilya niya ay damay at talagang malalagot siya sa kuya niya no'n. Principal Lee hesitated a little... after all, the Villafuentes w
In the Arms of the Enigmatic Billionaire Chapter 74: Caught in Surveillance Camera
Taas noo niyang tinignan si Leandra. Audrey's eyes became sharper, staring at the lady. "Who told you that?" tanong niya. Leandra's eyes dodged her gaze, but she still said with determination, "Don't worry about who told me that! Anyway, this test paper is the original test questions for the competition. Don't deny it! You helped Reina cheat because you have a good and close relationship with her! Bakit? Dahil gusto mo siyang manalo, 'di ba?" The people present were once again ignited with anger. Muling do'n na-focus ang attention nila, sa pambibintang kay Audrey. If it was really like what Leandra said, Audrey had the audacity in challenging the nerves of each of them. The long-lasting glory of the Department of Psychology has always been because of the annual psychological knowledge competition. And now, someone actually cheated in the school competition! Audrey smiled indifferently and stretched out her hand to get everyone's attention. "Please listen to me... Miss
In the Arms of the Enigmatic Billionaire Chapter 73: How did she know?
Miss Vanessa, Professor Henry, the principal and all the judges were shocked and confused when they saw the test questions. They received a new set. Iba iyon sa test questionnaires na natanggap nila kaninang umaga at iyon ang inaasahan nilang gagamitin sa competition. All the contestants only had ten minutes to answer the questions. Pagkatapos ng unang round na 'yon ay nakabibiglang forty na estudyante lang ang nakalusot para sa susunod na round. Reina advanced to the next round while Leandra was immediately eliminated. Halos padabog siyang umexit. Kinuha niya ang bag niya saka galit na galit na kinuha ang crumpled na test paper mula roon. Ang alipores niyang si Gina ay agad siyang nilapitan para aluhin siya. "It's okay, Leandra. This is just a competition. At isa pa, si Audrey ang nag-organize no'n, so it's no big deal!" "Go away, Gina. Layuan mo ako!" she pushed her away as she threw tantrums. Gigil niyang pinunit ang test paper saka iyon tinapon sa kung saan. Iniwan
In the Arms of the Enigmatic Billionaire Chapter 72: Test Questionnaire
Tumayo si Regan at kinuha ang pot kung nasaan ang iba pang tsaa na nagawa niya. Umuusok pa iyon. Dinala niya 'yon sa mesa kung nasaan si Audrey na pinagmamasdan siya. "Drink more of this tea. Ubusin mo," saad nito sa kaniya. Bahagyang nanlaki ang mga mata ni Audrey nang makita ang sinasabi nitong dapat niyang ubusin. "It's too much! Hindi ko 'yan mauubos, Mr. Vasquez." Sa dami no'n ay pwede pa siya ro'n maligo! It's an exaggeration, pero talagang marami iyon. It's impossible for her na ubusin ang lahat ng 'yon sa isang upuan lang. "It's for your health. It will make you feel even better." Regan smiled at her. "For your health." Rong Yu smiled gently. Hindi niya alam kung seryoso ba ito. Napatingin siya sa wall clock saka muling tinignan ang lalake. "Mr. Vasquez, it's already late. You should go home and rest..." Marahan niyang sinabi rito. Tumayo si Regan at tumango. "Remember to drink all of that." He reminder her. Pilit siyang napangiti. Hinatid niya ito sa may pin
In the Arms of the Enigmatic Billionaire Chapter 71: Preparation
Mas naging abala si Audrey sa araw bago ang kompetisyon. Halos tapos naman na ang paghahanda pero kailangan niyang balik-balikan ang mga detalye para masiguro na maayos ang lahat. Naging abala siya at ang mga estudyanteng katulong niya sa pag-organize ng competion sa pag-decorate sa venue kung saan iyon gaganapin bukas. Even Professor Henry was worried and stayed late with them. "Have you already secured the test questions for the competition?" Professor Henry asked. Tumango naman si Audrey. "Opo, Professor. It's already in the safe in the consultation room. I'm the only one who has the key to the safe." Professor Henry nodded. "That's good to hear." Nakangiti nitong sagot sa kaniya. Nang nauna ng umuwi si Professor Henry ay naiwan do'n si Audrey. She tested the various equipment in the auditorium again. She needed to make sure that everything will go as planned. After everything was checked, it was already 11:30 in the evening. Nakahinga nang maluwag s
