Reassuring Smile

MASIGLANG gumalaw-galaw si Tala sa loob ng kusina ng kanyang apartment sa araw na iyon. Of course, masaya siya dahil balik trabaho na. To think of two days off, nababagot na agad siya sa dalawang araw na hindi niya nakakasama ang paborito niyang alaga sa balat ng lupa. Ang pinakamamahal at ang napakagandang si Vanessa at ang witty na assistant nitong si Odette na lagi niyang binu-bully.

He was humming while cooking his breakfast. It is just a plain scrambled egg, toasted bread, bacon, and hotdog. Dinamihan na rin niya para mabigyan niya ang dalawa.

Katatapos lang niyang maghain at magtimpla ng kanyang black coffee nang tumunog ang kanyang cellphone. He was still humming while picking up his phone.

"Sunshine, morning." Bungad agad ni Tala sa kabilang linya.

"Tala. This is Jaja, I just want to inform you that the higher-up is dismissing you. Effectively, today." Ang wika ni Jaja sa kabilang linya. "You can come here to the office for your dismissal arrangement. That's a

    The OptionsNAGKATITIGAN si Vanessa at Tala nang may kumatok sa labas ng opisina nilang iyon. Pareho silang napakunot ang noo."Tala, are you there?" tanong ng taong nasa labas ng pinto.Vanessa sighed. "I think it is, Jaja.""I think so," tugon ni Tala sa kanya.Tumayo si Tala at pinagbuksan ng pinto ang nasa labas. They were right, Jaja shows up."Good morning. Anyway, nandito na rin ba si Ms. Vanessa?" ang tanong ni Jaja matapos itong pagbuksan ni Tala."Yes, she's here already. Kakarating lang naming dalawa." Sagot ni Tala rito."That's good. Uh, I came here because the CEO wanted to inform you and Ms. Vanessa to visit her in her office this instant. That's all." then Jaja exited right away.Tala was anxious the moment he received the message. Maya maya ay huminga siya ng malalim. In the back of his mind, he was so sure that the topic they are discussing at that time is all true.Tumayo si Vanessa nang makita nitong hindi gumagalaw at natutulala lang si Tala habang nakahawak pa rin

    Returning the FavorVANESSA and Tala glance at each other deeply. Tala was against Vanessa's thinking at the moment. Alam niya at kilala niya ang kanyang alaga, hindi nito iniisip ang kanyang sarili makatulong lang sa taong malapit sa kanyang puso."Hindi makatarungan itong ginagawa mo, Mourine. You are forcing us to leave and then pay for the breach of contract. Ano 'to, blackmail? This is a bullshit proposal plan! Hindi ito makatarungan! Will you please be fair to both of us?" Tuloyan nang lumabas ang galit ni Tala kay Mourine sa mga oras na 'yon."Shut up! Hindi ito mangyayari kung naging masunurin lang ang alaga mo. Now, you and Vanessa have pushed my limits. Now, take this as a punishment for not obeying me as your CEO of this company! At sino ka ba para kwestyonin ako sa gusto kong gawing plano para sa mga artist ng Ellis company?" Mourine arrogant tone rushes out of control.Vanessa was furious and livid while gazing at Mourine, but still, she remained her calm demeanor as alwa

    Secret TraitorKINABUKASAN kasama ni Vanessa si Odette sa pagtungo sa Ellis building. Napagkasunduan na niya at Mourine na mananatili pa rin si Odette bilang personal assistant niya. Hindi naman tumanggi si Mourine sa kanyang kondisyon. Isa pa ilalaban naman niya ang kanyang karapatan dahil una sa lahat, simula nang pumasok siya sa Ellis ay nakasaad na sa kontratang pinirmahan niya na siya mismo ang mamimili ng kanyang mismong personal assistant.Odette was so delighted, pinangako pa nito sa kanya na aalagaan siya nito kahit ano pa man ang mangyari. Ramdam naman niya iyon, since matanda ito sa kanya ng limang taon. Odette sees her as her own little sister. Pareho sila ni Tala na nakakatanda sa kanya, kaya alagang-alaga siya ng mga ito na para bang nakababatang kapatid.Vanessa, Odette, and Jaja were going for their first meeting in the prestigious five-star hotel, the Hotel Berlin. Jaja accompanied Vanessa as a new manager. Sa Hotel Berlin naka-set ang meeting sa pagitan ng Vintage Win

Then his eyes were well fixed on the woman who has a calm demeanor. It was no other than, Vanessa Dizon. The woman he is eager to work with the moment he laid his eyes on her.Nakaraang taon pa niya iniutos sa kanyang assistant na alukin ito ng kontrata ngunit nakailang ulit silang tinanggihan ng modelo.

    Heart of the OceanLUMIPAS ang dalawang linggo at tuloyan ring nabura sa social media ang issue na ibinabato ukol kay Vanessa. Kagaya ng ipinangako ni Mourine ay niresolba nito ang problemang ito mismo ang may dahilan. Mourine greediness is the main reason why she suffers public criticism.Bukod kay Mourine ay pasikreto ring tumulong si Matthew na linisin ang pangalan niya. Because of the Vintage resources and power her career was finally restored. Hindi niya akalain na isa si Matthew na makipagugnayan na tulongan siya. Well, the main reason why Matthew did that is because when her career gets ruined, paano na lang ang kompanya nito. Nasa popularity ni Vanessa nakasalalay ang bagong produkto ng Vintage that's why she needs to maintain her popularity on top.Natapos na rin ang billboard shoot niya. Sa susunod na linggo na rin ito tuloyang iiere sa iba't ibang bahagi ng lugar."Salamat at sa wakas nabura rin ang issue tungkol sa 'yo anak," wika ng ina niya habang nasa sala sila sa hapong

    Direct OfferMATTHEW stared glued in Vanessa's direction. It's been a month since he restrained himself to do something that he ever wanted. Sa lahat ng modelo na kursunada niya ay ito ang naiiba. He didn't move quickly to his main agenda. He wants Vanessa to feel that he does not have any intention to come near her and do anything wrong like he always plans to those former models.At first, he wants her to believe that the issue is not true. Na hindi niya ginagawan ng masama ang mga modelo na napili ng kompanya niya. He plans to stay close to her without sensing any danger.But the night has come perfectly. Sa mismong gabing 'yon niya sisimulan ang lahat. He plans to take Vanessa to the presidential hotel suite that is located at the top of that hotel building, where he held a special banquet for the success of the new Vintage products.

    Apologetic And GuiltyAURORA was dumbfounded at Asia's boldness. Wala man lang kaunting hinhin habang nago-offer ng trabaho sa isang napakasikat na modelo. She was very direct, she even didn't know Vanessa's status as a top supermodel. Isa pa hindi nito iniisip na baka marinig ito ng isa sa Ellis employees."Vanessa, please forgive my friend for being direct to you." Hinging paumanhin ni Aurora.Asia immediately snorted. "Hey, what are you doing? I am just asking her to join our company. May mali ba sa sinabi ko, Ms. Vanessa?"Vanessa slowly shook her head. She was amazed at the woman in front of her. She didn't bother if she was that direct to ask her for a job. "N-no... You are right, wala namang mali, Ms. Asia.""See that, Aurora? Ikaw lang naman ang nagiisip ng mali." Asia beamed and her gaze moved to Vanessa. "So, is there a chance for you to sign in our company, Vanessa?" At that time, Asia was not hesitant to ask her and call her first name as if may koneksyon na kaagad sila.Au

Kaya walang nagawa si Asia kundi ang kausapin ng kausapin ang kapatid nito na puro lang tango, oo, at hindi ang sagod sa kanya."What a boring dinner is this!" Asia then wiped her mouth into the table napkin.Barron and Vanessa also wiped their mouths. Before the dinner ended, Barron stated."Two of you, follow me after half an hour in my study room," Barron said and left the two of them."Okay, boss..." Asia said, as Barron exited the dining area.Nang wala na sa paningin nila si Barron ay hinarap ni Asia si Vanessa. "Are you done with your dinner?"Vanessa nodded. "Yeah.""Then come, nakahanda na nag gagamitin mong silid sa itaas," Asia said as if ito ang magdedesisyon para sa kanya."H-huh?""You are staying here for the time being. Kung hindi, aatakihin ka muli ni Matthew. Narinig mo si Barron, right? Hindi titigil si Matthew

    ArgumentsBarron raised his eyebrows and sneered. "I don't need your apology! After all, it's your judgment, Ms. Dizon!""Barron, you are being so harsh to my talent. Will you atop it!? Look, humingi na siya ng tawad and also she admits her mistakes. Ano pa ba ang kailangang gawin niya?" Asia said defending Vanessa.Barron pursed his lips. He stood up after he closed and put aside his laptop, and then he walked out.Asia also pursed her lips.Vanessa was very ashamed. Humarap siya kay Asia at tumingin rito. "Ms. Asia. I very much appreciate your help... but—" napatingin siya sa papalayong si Barron. "Even I want to accept the offer, but really... I don't want to bother you and your brother with my mess. Don't worry about me, I can surpass this all." Vanessa stood up and was ready to go."Vanessa!" Asia also stood up. She was going to follow and stop Vanessa from going, but she stopped when Barron stopped walking.Barron gazed seriously at Vanessa's direction. "Where do you think you ar

    Exclusive TalentsVanessa froze on her feet as the man, who had a powerful appearance, raised his face. Nagkasalubong agad ang mga mata nila ng lalaking iyon.Of course, Vanessa knew that man is. Everyone knew him as a noble big boss in the entertainment industry. He is none other than, Barron Hudson, the king of the entertainment industry. Tinitingala ito ng lahat. Also, everyone is crazy in love with his very handsome and charismatic aura. Higit sa lahat, layunin ng mga tao sa media ang mapalapit at pumasok sa matatag na agency na hawak nito.Asia's corner of lips twitched habang nakatitig sa reaksyon ni Vanessa at Barron sa isa't isa. She smirked and clapped her hands a bit to wake them up.Vanessa's eyes immediately avoid Barron's deep and dark eyes."Well, siguro naman kilala n'yo ang isa't isa, right?" Asia said and then pulled Devi in the spacious and luxurious living room."Vanessa, this is my little brother, Barron Hudson. And brother, this is Vanessa Dizon. The model I chose

    BackerAsia shook her head and patted Vanessa's hands, which were pressed together. "It's good that you caught them before it's too late. Mahirap na magpakasal sa isang manloloko! And anyway, I am here. I can support you in your revenge."Vanessa looked at Asia and frowned. "B-bakit gusto mo akong tulungan, Ms. Vanessa? Is it because you still want me to sign as your talent?" Diretsong tanong rito ni Vanessa."To be honest, yes. But, as I see, nasa panganib ang buhay mo. Look, Matthew strikes you and he will not stop. She harms your mother that leads to her death. Walang ibang gagawa nito sayo, as I learn from Aurora, who have zero enemies in the modeling industry since you become a model. So, tingin mo sino ang gagawa nito sa'yo. You almost rape last night by that bastard. Alam nating marami na siyang krimen na nagawa sa lahat ng mga modelo, but it didn't expose dahil walang naglakas-loob at nababayaran niya ang hustisya. Now, kaya mo bang hindi lumaban lalo at nawalan ka ng isang Ina

How about you, Vanessa?" Asia also checks Vanessa."I'm fine, don't worry."Nakita ni Vanessa at Asia ng babain ng isang kotse ang itim na kotse at sapilitan nitong inilabas ang nagmamaneho niyon. Kitang kita nila kung paano ng dalawang lalaki gulpihin ang driver.Dahil 7:30 pm na sa mga oras na iyon, wala nang masyadong tao sa buong paligid ng Memorial Park ngunit nagkakagulo ang iilang tao na nakasaksi ng buong pangyayari. Kahit ang mga security guards ng Angel Memorial Garden ay lumapit at umawat.Asia pursed her lips. It seems that she knew who their rescuer was. Of course, it was the members of the black society, which is the underworld.May pinakita lang ang member ng black society sa mga guwardiya, then those guards handed the man in the hands of the 2 members.

Saka lumabas si Rene sa opisna ng kanyang boss.Barron picked up his phone and dialed Aris. Nakailang ring pa lang ng agad iyong sinagot ng kabilang linya."Barron?""Aris, I need a thorough investigation about what happened to Vanessa's mother's death.

Sagot ni Aris sa kabilang linya."Good.""Anyway, why are you so very interested in this matter? As I checked, this model came from your rival agency." nagtatakang tanong ni Aris."Do I need to tell you my reason?"Aris, on the other line, smirks. "No need. Well, I think I know the reason. This Model is very stunning and she has a very strong career. You want to sign her as one of your exclusive models?""No." Barron's direct answer."Then, your exclusive woman?

Hindi muna siya nagsalita at mahina lang ang kanyang galaw na nilagay ang lahat ng documents ng kanyang boss sa mesa nito at ang laptop."Okay, send it to my email immediately!" He said.Pagkababa niya ng tawag ay tumingin siya kay Rena."Sir Barron—""Locate where Asia is at this time." Utos niya rito.Rene nodded. "Okay, Sir. May iuutos pa ho ba kayo?""Alamin mo ang status ng contract ni Vanessa sa Ellis Entertainment Company." Barron said and sat down in his swivel chair and opened his laptop.Rene frown.

Kay Aurora niya iyon nakuha, good things that Aurora keeps Vanessa's private number and also her assistant, Odette's number.Agad tinawagan ni Asia ang number ni Vanessa, but her number is unavailable at that moment.

Is this Vanessa's assistant?"Odette, on the other end of the line, frowned. "Yes.""Where is Vanessa? May I speak with her now?" Asia goes straight to the point at hinanap agad si Vanessa sa assistant nito."May I know what you need to Vanessa?" tanong ni Odette.

See, umalis siya ng walang paalam even though she's in a state of crisis, right?" Barron said while busy signing the documents on his table."Yeah. But brother, I feel pity for her. Malaking tao si Matthew Sanchez, as we heard, that man is a manipulative bastard. I'm a little afraid of that poor model 'Vanessa'." Asia is full of worries at that time."So what? Pinasok niya ang gulong iyan, then she should've faced it alone. So, stop worrying about her.""But...""No but's, Ate. Hindi ko obligasyon ang tulungan ang kung sino man lalo at hindi naman nagtatrabaho sa company ko. I will not waste my time as such a woman.""But she almost raped, Barron.
