CXXXV. Attention to The Prince (Part 2)
People could only choose what they would like to listen to. Instead of imagining a date with Oneil as they enjoy the tourism features of the Grand Barn, Essi stands beside Aggresso without a choice. The workers of the Grand Barn are interested in meeting Oneil again. They surround him with many questions. But unlike the other workers, Milo remained away. He rather proceeded on helping Essi on taking off the saddle from Felicia.
Essi noticed how Milo is serious in his work or maybe it is because of the heat of the sun that causes him to scowl. She remained familiar to him because when Essi wanted to give a lunch meal for Oneil, Oneil already had one from a good share prepared by Milo for him. “Aren’t you friends with Oneil?” Essi asked as she brushed Aggresso’s back. It is a question of already knowing the answer. But she just made it to secure a good start of a conversation with him.

While he is entering again to an area exclusive only to the infrastructure processes, someone called him in the intent to return what he dropped on his way.“I think you dropped this,” said the lady with her bright brown scrutinizing Oneil’s soul. But Oneil was only looking down while receiving the key of his car and staring among the pages of the development plan.Oneil thanked her but he noticed that she is still remaining in a few meters away from the construction site. So he glanced at her for a clearer version of her face. “Do you need something? I think you can inquire to the reception area. This area is off-limits,” Oneil said.The woman made a few steps backward but she returned on looking at Oneil. “D

Oneil confidently responds to their questions and supplies other statements needed in the discussion. But Oneil only kept it to himself on how he noticed the gazes of the captain and his wife towards him. It is as if they saw an unproven ghost. Even Captain Arturo’s wife intended to slow down her movements to allow herself to get a better view on how the Riley they knew looks different now.“So you are now working in an infrastructure firm?” Captain Arturo’s wife asked.“Yes ma’am,” he replied to attest what had Mr. Angeles said about him as an executive assistant to the V

Was it frustration that all those flashbacks came to him and yet he still cannot capture his real memories? All he knew is what has been the same and what is said. Everything that he earned on those sudden memory visitation are all about his moments with Essi. He must have liked to stare at her a lot just like he does now that is why a lacuna of those scenes replay in his mind to bring delight. He should have been contented that at least those images are emerging in his conscious again. But it is all about Essi and it makes him want to see more. He wants to find her there and see that he loved her or he would be dismayed at himself for not doing it better. He arises from the cotton bed of Mariano Ancestral House hoping that a cup of tea with him would make him feel better. As he went out from his room, Oneil was surprised to see six familiar men in suit, standing on the wall and are guarding him from his room.

What has been a laughingstock idea that the caretaker of the ducks could become the alpha male with soldier-like men becomes a reality. Someone like him is the one that they apprehended about.Oneil was quick to sense that the people of Bayanihan were talking about him. But he didn’t bother to attend to their questions. People would choose what to believe and suspect anyway. He cannot waste his time explaining when he can just keep his integrity through action. The issue didn’t bother him that much.But the far away image of Marika makes him a little agitated. Even in the midst of a family celebration, she managed to catch up with Oneil. His elite guards are on their right timing to stop her because she was unfamiliar and unaffiliated to Oda Infrastructures.“I just want to remind you about the event later, Mr. Oneil Mercator,” Marika said with th

Because of the restoration of his memory, Oneil could have a hint that Mr. Antares has something to do with this attack. It is time now to address those who had tried trampling them down. But at the sight of Essi and on how she gently taps and wipes his skin with a wet cloth, he couldn’t stop the strong calmness in him. Her peaceful face, the sigh of relief, makes him want to rather protect her more than to leave out and chase the culprit but making him look away from his love. He would not wish to spoil this moment or the days to come when it is Essi's loving countenance that waits for him to wake up. "How are you feeling?" Oneil asked almost like a whisper. He carefully held her left hand too. It must be a joy out of his sitting sheer jealousy that Essi doesn't wear any wristwatch today. For someone who truly knows Essi, it feels an honor, a language of love that cannot be easily heard. Essi has been among the likes of people that literally translates the imp

Oneil couldn’t deny how Victor’s questions influenced his interaction to Jillian. He was more alert on attending to the details of her words instead of making friendly responses to her. He went on letting her tell how fast had the news arrived to her since Niana was also concerned for Oneil’s situation. Jillian continued talking while arranging the foods she brought. Oneil suddenly got alarmed when Jillian decided to take off the flowers from the vase to chang it with the new ones.“Where are you going to put that?” Oneil stopped her.“I must throw this away. I have new ones here.”Oneil gestured for her to put it back. “Just let that sit there. Don’t touch the vase.” It was Essi’s flowers for him. Chrysanthemums, carnations and peonies beautifully combined to bring colors to his room.“How about these new flowers?” Jillia asked. She also picked almost the same variations
Look At Me, Oneil CXLI. Sincere Ally [VOL 6. A Fight for the Prince]
The news that trouble has chased Oneil had secretly crept through the manor of the Mercator. Grant remained unaware of it until he noticed the visible perplexion on Latifa's face. It is easy to uncover that it must be about Oneil's plight. For nothing would damage Latifa except of the troubles of her son. Somehow, Grant is also concerned of the grandson who abondoned him. Grant glances at Niana, waiting for her if she would say anything. But there was never a word about him. Gwyneth is unfortunately not around too. The best contact that could allow Grant has to get a real-time information about Oneil is Essi with her business number. While staying at the office, he was debating in himself if he should contact her. He conditioned himself that if Essi would not be able to respond then he would not repeat this attempt. But seconds after the ring, Essi immediately answered. "Hello, sir." Grant is impressed that Essi knows who is calling her. Grant thought that Essi would make personal e
