Marrying The Billionaire Chapter 70
"WALA NGA SIYA RITO..." sabi ko sabay sunod ng tingin sa kanya, bukas pa rin ang pintuan dahil gusto ko na siyang umalis."Ba't ka nandito kung wala siya?" nagtaas siya ng kilay at binalingan ako.I realized that I wanted to confront him the past few months. Wala nga lang akong alam kung saan ko siya makikita bukod sa workplace niya. Kaya naman, imbes na makipag-away tungkol kay Damon, gusto ko nang samantalahin ang pagkakataong iyon para malaman ang dahilan niya."Kinukuha ko ang mga gamit ko. Aalis din ako, huwag kang mag-alala.""Hm. Tagal mong kinuha, ah? llang buwan na ba-" she smirked but I cut her off,"Ikaw? Ang tagal mong pumayag sa DNA test, ah? Ilang buwan na ba ang lumipas nang pumayag ang Papa ko?"She looked annoyed at the emphasis of my last words."You really think you can fool me? I know why he's agreed. Cuz he will tamper it."I cannot believe her."He will tamper it?" Natawa ako. "Are you out of your mind?""I know these things more than you, Ysa. Of course he'd wan

PAULIT-ULIT kong pinindot ang elevator para lang magsarado. When the doors move to close, my tears fell. I cursed under my breath. Nang kaunti na lang magsasarado na, nakita kong pumagitna si Damon. Nagkatinginan kami bago sumarado.I frantically searched for my keys. I know it's impossible that he'll run after me hanggang basement pero sinigurado kong nakaalis agad ako roomI successfully got away. O baka hindi naman siya sumunod. I gritted my teeth as I drove on the road. I parked in a crowded place near malls and restaurants. My tears kept falling as I harshly pulled more and more tissue for myself.What the hell?Alam kong dati pa man sinasabi ko lang na niloloko lang ako. Kaya dapat hindi ko na iniisip iyon. Na dapat hindi ako nagpapadala. Pero ang totoo, sa likod ng isipan ko tumatak iyon. A part of me believed his confession. He confessed in front of my parents! He resigned after that confession!Kahit anong isip ko na may binabalak siya, pero sa nagdaang ilang buwan na wala na

"WHAT are you doing here?" was my first questions.Gulat ako kaya matagal ko bago nabigkas iyon.Nakapagtagal na ang mga mata niya sa loob, partikular na sa banda ni Mr. Vera. He looked annoyed, his eyes were piercing."Damon," I called when he wasn't attentive.Isasara ko na sana ang pinto. He has no business here and I'm not even sure how he found my condo unit. Is he stalking me? Pero ano pa man iyon, hindi ngayon ang panahon para magkasagutan kami dahil may bisita ako.My door was half closed when he put his hand on it and pushed it. Hindi ko inasahan na gagawin niya iyon kaya madali niyang nabuksan ulit. He even stepped inside. Nagulat ako."Damon, this not the time. I have a visitor-""Sino 'yan?" tanong niya kahit na nagtagal ang tingin kay Mr. Vera bago bumaling sa akin.My face heated when I realized how bad the set up was. Hindi ko agad iyon naisip dahil wala namang malisya para sa akin si Mr. de Vera. Kaya lang ngayong walang pagaalinlangang pumasok si Damon sa condo ko at

"WALA ka namang nararamdaman sa akin, Ysa. Hindi ba?"Napakurap-kurap ako sa gulat. It was all over my face. I had to regain my composure back after a while.He's wearing his usual white dress shirt and slacks. Gaya ng suot niya kanina nang pumasok sa condo niya. Hindi siya nagbihis. Does this mean that when he ran after me, he didn't go back to his condo?"Are you justifying your outburst just because you have feelings for me? If he's my lover, then so what, Damon?""If he's your lover, then I want to know why were you crying inside that elevator when you left my condo a while ago, Ysa..." he said and slowly closed in our distance.Napatingin ako sa distansiya namin at sa gulat ay muntik nang naibaba ang nakahalukipkip na braso. I hoped that he didn't see my tears. After all, it was only a split second but I guess he saw it."I was worried about you. You didn't seem okay when you left. Why were you crying?"Nangapa ako ng isasagot. Fiona hurt me with her words but I was more angry th

HINDI ko alam kung paano ko nalagpasan iyon. I didn't say a word. I just wanted to go to my room and rest. Damon didn't say a word, too. Nagpadeliver pa siya ng dinner habang nagkulong ako sa kuwarto.Kinatok niya ako. Kahit ayaw kong lumabas, nagsabi siya na may dinner ako roon at na uuwi na siya pagkatapos. Ayaw ko sanang maniwala. I felt like he's just saying that to make me go out but after a while, I heard him leave.Matagal pa bago ako lumabas ng kuwarto. At nang lumabas na ako, dim na ang mga ilaw at malinis din ang kusina. Sa counter natanaw ko ang pagkain. He scribbled a note that read: Sweet dreams, Ysa. I'm going back to my condo alone.Tiningnan ko ang katabi nitong pagkain. I heard him order food but I couldn't really imagine it. May taco kaming hindi pa nagagalaw ni Mr. Vera. Naglakad ako patungo sa living room para tingnan kung naroon pa ba pero kahit ang wine ko, wala na.It's all clean now. He cleaned up. Bumalik ako sa kusina at tingnan ang basurahan. The taco was th

"SI P-PAPA.. " natagalan ako sa pagsagot no'n.At some point, I really thought he'd realize that I hired a private investigator for him. Pero imposible naman nga naman iyon. Kinabahan lang ako para sa wala.Nagtagal ang tingin niya sa akin, kunot ang noo pero may multo ng ngiti sa labi habang pinagmamasdan ako."Anyway, just take it," I said, trying to change the subject.He looked at me for a while before his eyes dropped on the check. He sighed."I'll take your services instead.""Huh?" ako naman ngayon ang nagkunot ang noo.He crossed his arms, looking like he's more comfortable and decisive now."Kailangan ko ng renovation para sa hotel ko. I won't take the check but I'd like you to work on that renovation. That check will pay for it."Napatingin ako sa cheke sa kamay ko."Whatever you need for the renovation, that check will pay for it. Even your services."My lips parted to talk pero inunahan niya ako."Since you're doing well in your interior designs, I'm hiring you to do that

UMIRAP ako habang binabasa ang mensahe ni Damon. Mula noong pumunta ako sa trabaho ni Damon, madalas na naman siyang mag text sa akin.Damon:How about tomorrow night?Ako:I told you I have a meeting.Damon:With Mr. Vera?Hindi ko agad naibigay sa kanya ang mga plano ko dahil busy sa trabaho. I'm also too elated to do anything when I heard that my parents are soon coming home after their vacation. Sa wakas ay magkakatotoo na rin ang DNA test.I contacted Mr. Vera yesterday to tell him that he should intensify the investigation for Fiona. Hindi yata kakayanin ng pasensiya ko kung may biglaan siyang out of town sa pag uwi nina Papa at Mama.Inantala ko rin ng husto ang meeting namin ni Mr. Vera dahil sa mga ginagawa sa trabaho. Bukas pa lang kami magkikita dahil Sabado. I chose a place near mine. Na magkikita dahil Sabado. I chose a place near mine. Narealize ko rin na hindi ko na dapat siya iniimbitahan sa condo ko. Hindi dahil kay Damon kundi dahil medyo unprofessional nga naman iyo

"DO YOU have to be so rude?""I'm not friends with that person, Ysa-""He greeted you politely!" giit ko.Ngumuso siya. Nakatayo pa kami ngayon, nagtatalo na naman."Well, I'm sorry. I just don't think I can be civil with him. Siya ang dahilan kung bakit nag-away tayo noong-"I cut him off with a groan and sat on my chair. He sighed and sat on Mr. Vera's chair, as well. Pinalinis namin ang pagkain habang kinukuha ko na ang laptop ko para i-set up na ang mga kailangan."Are you sure he's only a private investigator, Ysa? Masama ang pakiramdam ko sa titig niya sa'yo."I glared at him as I set up my laptop."You partied with him while I'm out of the country. Then I caught you in your condo alone...""Ang akala ko ba mag-uusap tayo tungkol sa trabaho? Are we here to enumerate the times you got jealous?"Nagtaas siya ng kilay. Nagkatitigan kami, parehong naghahamon."I'm just saying that I know when men wants something else from a woman, Ysa. At sa titig niya sa'yo kanina, pakiramdam ko hi

NANG nasa tamang palapag na, nasa pintuan niya na agad ako. I clicked the door bell and waited for his door to open. He opened it after seconds. His eyes darkened when he saw me standing outside. Nagtaas din ang kilay niya at isang beses na marahang pumikit. "Why are you here?" he asked, a ghost of a smile is hiding on his lips. "Ayaw mo ba ako rito?" sagot ko, nanatili sa labas ng pintuan niya. He then crossed his arms. Hindi niya ako pinapapasok. Nanatili ang tingin niya sa akin. "Nagpaalam ka ba?" I rolled my eyes. "Hindi na ako bata, Damon. I can do whatever I want whenever I want. My father is just being overprotective but it's already out of place. I'm not a teenager." He nodded and swallowed hard. "Hindi na kita ginising kanina. Your father also told me to just go home so..." Umiling ako sa inaasal ni Papa. "Yup. I got tired of waiting and I was exhausted so..." Nagtagal ang tingin naming dalawa bago siya tumango, para bang natauhan. "Hinatid ko Sina Tiya sa bahay kani
Marrying The Billionaire Chapter 89
PAGKATAPOS ng usapan namin sa study, Damon was also summoned. I have heard he's arrived a while ago. He's just waiting for my father's call. Kaya nang tinawag siya ni Papa at inasahan ni Papa na sila lang muna ang magkakausap, hinayaan ko na.I was also exhausted from all of what happened the whole day. Kaya sa pagod at paghihintay ko na matapos ang meeting nila, hindi ko na tuloy naabutan"Si Damon?" tanong ko nang bumaba.Natanaw kong nasa sala na si Mama at Papa. I assume that their meeting with him is done."Umuwi na," si Papa."He wanted to stay and wait for you for a while but your father here told him that you're exhausted for the day. Kaya minabuti niyang umuwi na lang para pagpahingahin ka,"Tumango ako at saglit na nag-isip. My father excused himself when his phone rang. Dumiretso naman ako sa kusina para kumuha ng tubig at saglit na magpahinga.Kalaunan, nang gumabi, I had dinner with my parents. My brothers were also invited and that was the time when my parents explained
Marrying The Billionaire Chapter 88
"IT'S NEGATIVE," kuya informed me.Natigilan ako saglit. The relief came afterwards. Although I have doubts, recent events and realizations made me renew my faith towards my father. Lalo na dahil kinausap niya mismo si Ashley Ortega, at na alam ni Mama ang tungkol dito.To know that the results were really negative was such a big relief."The positive tests were not published, as instructed.""Positive tests?""The one with a different sample, Ysa. Tama nga ang sinabi mo. She probably did get some samples from you "That was a speculation but it's different to hear it that way.Hindi ako makapaniwala na umabot nga'ng talaga si Fiona doon. I hated her to the bones but now that everything is revealed, I realized there was a part of me who hoped that she was credible. Desperate but still credible. But knowing this right now, it seems like everything is crumbling.She is desperate and she is a liar. Maybe, she didn't really want to hurt me that night, she only want my sample, but it was a

AFTER what Damon has said, Papa stepped in and lorded the floor. Siya naman ngayon ang binuhusan ng tanong na kaswal niya namang sinagot. Halos paulit-ulit lang ang mga tanong ng reporters, naghihintay na magkamali sa isasagot pero dahil totoo lahat ng mga sagot ni Papa, hindi sila nakahanap ng butas.The press conference ended. Takot akong magbasa sa mga panibagong articles at tulala pa ako sa study ni Papa habang pinoproseso ang mga nasagot nila roon. Damon just revealed everything! I'm not planning to keep our relationship a secret but I was also shocked that it's that openHe wanted to protect me so he had to reveal the truth. Hindi ko nga lang alam kung paniniwalaan iyon ng mga tao but seeing that he has a good credibility from the press, they'd tone down for sure.Sa dami ng iniisip ko, hindi ko na halos namalayan ang nagdaang oras. Nagulat na lang ako nang pumasok sa study si Papa, kasunod si Mama at si Damon. Napatayo ako galing sa pagkakaupo sa swivel chair at agad na sinalub
Marrying The Billionaire Chapter 86
PAGKALABAS ng sasakyan ko, natanaw nga namin na may iilang ang nag-aabang sa lobby. Iniisip ko na paniguradong mas maraming nag-aabang sa condo ni Damon ngayon. Mas interesado ang mga taong malaman ang sasabihin niya dahil mas pinagkakatiwalaan siya kumpara sa akin.Tahimik ako sa biyahe. Damon couldn't stop watching me even as he drives the car. Sinalubong ako ng iilang kasambahay namin nang nakarating. Damon made sure that I went inside our house. At ibinalita sa akin na wala si Mama at Papa roon dahil maaga sila sa opisina. My father's conference will be moved today because of the news.Binalingan ko si Damon."Hintayin na Ianq natin si Mama at Papa rito para makausap natin."Damom shook his head. "I'll talk to your parents now, Ysa.""Pero Damon, ang daming media. For sure they will want your statement.""Then I'll give my statement."Tinitigan ko siya, punong puno ng pag-aalala."Don't worry, okay?""You haven't been in an intrigue this big. The media can be harsh and they twist
Marrying The Billionaire Chapter 85
I COULDN'T believe that I had such a good night sleep despite everything that happened that day. O siguro dahil nawala ang mga mabibigat na nakadagan sa isipan ko. The DNA test was done, I had a good conversation and a more open relationship with Damon... and I think that is enough, despite the chaos.Nga lang, kadidilat pa lang ng mga mata ko kinaumagahan, nakita ko na ang abalang mga mensahe sa cellphone ko. I saw missed calls from my cousins, which was unusual.Napabalikwas ako sa kama nang natanaw na tumatawag si Nics. Sinagot ko agad iyon."What?" I said."Awake, finally? Sorry to bring bad news to your morning but...""What?" I said in anticipation."Your father is busy answering the media's questions right now. Apparently, the nature of your relationship with Damon leaked. I traced it earlier this morning, Fiona Suarez was interviewed by an insider, kaya kumalat-""What?!" Napatayo ako.Nics filled me with the details. Ni hindi pa niya alam ang buong pangyayari pero kagabi raw
Marrying The Billionaire Chapter 84
HINDI KO alam kung paano ko sasabihin sa kanya iyon. I-alo na dahil pinagbigyan niya si Papa sa isang pabor na puwedeng sumira rin sa pangalan niya - ang pakasalan ako.It was as if he trusted my family so much, he dedicated his life to us. And now, when problems rise, it's my family who threw him out of the bus."I mean...""I'm not trying to change his mind about it, Ysa. Gusto ko lang din... humarap sa parents mo. Bilang... boyfriend mo."I gritted my teeth. Not because I was angry, I was trying not to feel a leap in my heart. I cleared my throat and tried to compose myself. Hinuli niya ang mga mata ko at agad akong nanlumo nang muling naalala ang problema."I'm sorry.."I'm sorry what?" he said with a low tone.Hinuli niya ang mga mata ko."Nagulat ako sa sinabi ni Papa kanina. Hindi ko alam paano sasabihin sa kanya na boyfriend kita-""That's alright. I don't mind if I have to face him to tell him that, Ysa,"Kinagat kong muli ang labi ko. "Ang totoo... sinabi niyang„, a-ayaw niy
Marrying The Billionaire Chapter 83
SA TOTOO LANG, hindi ko alam kung ano ang gagawin ko pagkatapos sabihin ni Damon iyon. He looked at me intently, not sure if he's waiting for an answer or just weighing my reaction"It's your family's problem," I said as my throat run dry."It is. But I want to consult you. we both know that this is still somehow related to you... or us."Napatingin ako sa kanya at agad ko namang ibinaling sa ibang bagay ang mga mata ko."Umuwi ka na lang at kausapin mo sila. I won't mind."His brow furrowed and he remained looking at me.Napatingin din tuloy ako sa kanya, ako naman ngayon ang naninimbang. What does he want me to say? Hindi ba iyon naman ang tamang gawin niya? Ayaw kong makialam sa pag-uusapan nila dahil bago pa ako, nariyan na si Fiona. Kamag-anak niya ang Tiyo at Tiya niya. Kahit pa tingin nila'y mag-asawa kami, it's not true. I'm just his girlfriend. And even if we were indeed married, I can't just butt in on their family affairs."It's your family's problem. Oo, I may be related t
Marrying The Billionaire Chapter 82
NAKIKINIG ako pero habang ganoon ay natanaw ko na nakatitig si Papa sa akin. I looked at him as well. He sighed and nodded before talking."Alam kong naipaliwanag ko na ang nangyari sa inyo ni Damon, pero gusto ko lang sabihin na nagsisisi ako sa mga naging padalos dalos kong desisyon."Both my cousins looked at me. Natahimik ako at nakinig lang kay Papa."I know I should've done this the moment I revealed that your marriage wasn't filed, but I was a coward and I still wanted my plan to work. To cover up for your pasts scandals, Ysa."He held his hand up in the air to stop me from talking.Umaamba akong magsasalita."Pagkatapos lumabas ng resulta, gusto ko nang sabihin sa media na hindi totoo ang pagpapakasal ninyo ni Damon. That I did that as a parent who tried to make wrong things right, the wrong way. It was a foolish decision and I take full responsibility over it."Nabitin sa ere ang mga sasabihin ko sa gulat sa sinabi ni papa."l don't want Damon for you..." he said.My eyes wid
