Apologetic And Guilty

AURORA 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.

    Leave The RoomMOURINE secretly blinks her eyes at the newcomer, Matthew but she immediately frowns and says, "A waiter threw a glass of wine on my precious model. Look, Vanessa's gowns are ruined and wet," she said full of worries thru her face. As if she is really worried.Matthew narrowed his eyes to what he heard and he looked at his assistant. "Find who is that idiot, and fired him from his job immediately!" mariing pag-utos nito sa kanyang assistant.Vanessa gets frowned a bit. "N-no! That is not necessary. Hindi naman n'ya sinasadya ang nangyaring 'to. It's just a minor accident, and I already talked to him." she said stopping Matthew's impulsive order."Are you sure?" Matthew asks her with worry in his voice."Yes, Sir." she nodded."Okay, if that is your decision. Jaja, I already contacted the boutiques for Vanessa's new gown. It is just nearby this building. Now, hurry up and go to the lobby area because it will arrive soon," ang utos ni Mourine kay Jaja."Yes, ma'am." agad

    RunawayVANESSA slowly opened her eyes. She frowned as she observed the whole dark room. Bigla siyang nakaramdam ng kaba ng maalala niya ang huling nangyari sa kanya."You have finally woken up," wika ng tao na nasa dilim."W-who are you? W-where am I?" Vanessa stammered.Gumalaw ang lalaki na nasa dilim at saka nito binuhay ang mapusyaw na ilaw sa loob ng silid na iyon. Nasilaw agad si Vanessa ngunit ininda n'ya iyon at pilit inaninag ang lalaking nasa paanan ng kama na kanyang kinahihigaan."Jeffrey?""Yes, it's me," he said with a serious tone."J-Jeff," bigla siyang nakaramdam ng matinding kaba. "B-bakit ako nandito?""Sa tingin mo bakit ka nandito?" he asked her.Napalunok siya ng mariin. "Please, help me to get out of here. Please..." she pleaded while looking into his eyes. Alam na alam na kasi niya kung bakit siya nandoon.Jeffrey shook his head and sighed. "I can't do that, Ms. Vanessa. I am only following the big boss's order.""Please..." she still pleads.Bumuntong-hininga

    Helping HandsVANESSA froze when someone caught her entering the presidential suite. She cleared her throat and slowly turned to face the occupant of the suite."I'm sorry for invading your room—""Vanessa Dizon?" the woman recognized her immediately."Oh, M-Ms. Asia?" She also recognized her. Tiningnan niya ang kabuoan nito. That time, she was only wearing a nightgown and she was ready to go to bed.Nangunot ang noo nitong pinagmasdan ang kabuoan niya. Napapakurap pa ito ng may nakitang dugo sa kanyang suot na puti na gown."Asia, who is that?" wika ng isang boses na kakalabas lang sa isang silid. "What— hey, Vanessa. W-what happened to you?" nagmamadaling lumapit si Aurora sa kanya matapos siyang pagmasdan nito.Vanessa stammered. "I-I'm fine," wika niya na halos habulin ng hininga. Bumaba ang tingin niya at iniiwas ang kanyang namumulang mga mata sa mga ito."A-anong nangyari sa 'yo? Bakit may dugo 'yang damit—" Aurora stops her words when someone is knocking on the door.Nanlalaki

    Five-thirty AM"N-no..." kumunot ang mga noo ng dalawang babae habang nakasulyap sa kanyang reaksyon. "I... I mean, I don't want to drag one of you to my mess." mas kumunot ang mga noo ng mga ito. "Please, don't get it wrong, Ms. Aurora, Ms. Asia... I can do it alone. Gagawin ko ang—""You can face it and do it alone? How, Vanessa? Ngayon nga lang ay nanginginig ka na sa takot na makita ka ng dalawang lalaking naghahanap sa 'yo. Tell us, how can you do it alone without any help from us?" tanong ni Asia sa kanya.Vanessa only sighed. She also does not know how. Nagbaba siya ng tingin at iniwasan ang mga tingin ng mga ito. Ang totoo niyan ay nahihiya siyang tanggapin ang tulong ng mga ito at isa pa ay nag-aalangan siya dahil baka pati ang mga ito ay madamay sa gulong nasuungan niya."Asia is right, Vanessa. You should accept our help. We can help you in secret. How about that?" tanong ni Aurora sa kanya. She is also trying to convince her."But—"Nang makita ni Aurora na nag aalangan si

    Caught"B-BABE..." Nanlalaki agad ang mga mata ni Ralph pagkakita niya sa kanyang fiancée. Ang diwa nito na inaantok pa sa mga oras na iyon ay biglang nagising ng tuloyan."V-Vanessa... Um..." Vicky's eyes widened as she stammered. Nagulat rin ito ng makita niya ang kanyang matalik na kaibigan sa kanyang paggising.Gulat at galit na tingin ang ipinukol ni Vanessa sa dalawang tao na sa kasalukuyan ay nakabalot ng puting kumot ang mga hubad na mga katawan sa ibabaw ng kama."Mga walanghiya kayo! Mga baboy! Mga traydor!" hindi niya napigilan ang kanyang sarili na sugurin ang dalawa at pinagsasampal niya ang mga ito ng paulit-ulit sa magkabilang pisngi.Vicky's face flushed red from her slaps. Nanakit ang mga palad ni Vanessa. She was very angry, at ang mas nagpapatindi ng galit niya ay ang pagpigil ni Ralph sa kanyang atake kay Vicky."Bitiwan mo ako! Huwag mo akong pigilan!" hindi niya napigilang muli ang sarili na sampalin si Ralph ng napakalakas. "Kaya pala!" sigaw niya rito. "Kaya pa

    No PulseNAGMAMADALI siyang lumabas sa apartment ni Ralph. Pigil ang kanyang emosyon nang huminto siya sa may pinto. Naalala niyang bigla na isauli rito ang engagement ring niya na suot niya palagi. Alam niyang nakasunod sa kanya si Ralph kaya sa huling sandali ay taas noong lumingon siya sa direksyon nito.She also noticed Vicky in his side ngunit hindi niya ito pinansin at tinapunan ng tingin. "Oh, I forgot to return this," saka niya unti-unting inalis sa palasingsingan ang ang bagay na isasauli niya rito. "-here, it's yours again." then she threw it on him.Hindi na niya hinintay pa ang tugon ni Ralph at agad na siyang umalis sa harapan ng mga ito."Vanessa..." sigaw ni Ralph sa kanyang pangalan. "Please, I'm very sorry..."Huminga siya ng malalim saka nagpatuloy sa kanyang lakad. Tamang tama ang pagbukas ng elevator at agad na siyang lumulan roon. She saw him running in her direction, tinitigan lang niya ito sa mga mata habang unti-unti sumara ang elevator.Pinahid niya ang muntin

    Wit's EndNAKATULALA si Vanessa habang nakatanaw sa malayo. Namumutla at namumugto pa rin ang kanyang mga mata.Isang araw...Halos sa loob lang ng buong isang araw lang nangyari ang hindi niya inaasahan na mangyayari sa kanya.In one day, she was almost raped.She caught her fiancé cheating on her with her best friend.And the worst of worst... her mother died.For her, the pain is too much to bear. Her heart ached for so many reasons. Her mom's death is the one that caused a big impact on her entire life.Vanessa is at her wit's end; her heartaches, and she is dying a hundred times.A tear suddenly fell to her cheeks as she remembered her last conversation with her beloved mother this morning on the phone."Van, you are crying again," Odette said in a pitiful look and voice.Agad pinahid ni Vanessa ang kusang tumutulo na mga luha sa pamamagitan ng tissue. Kahit paulit-ulit niya iyong punasan ay patuloy pa ring umaagos ang kanyang mga luha. She was really in too much pain."I Can't he

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.

    Will AcceptVanessa instantly blushed sa sinabi at panunudyo ni Asia. While Barron's face turned cold.Katahimikan na namana ng bumalot sa buong dining table. 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

    Scolding"Ms. Asia, are you okay?" ang nagaalalang tanong ni Vanessa kay Asia ng ito ang muntik ng masagi ng itim na kotse.Asia looks paled but remains calm and composure. "I'm fine. 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.

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. I need every detail and also valid reports. Everything..." Agad niyang wika rito."Oh-huh. Okay, I am already working on this matter." 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?

    Totally RuinedAfter the evening meeting with the Rocket's executive, Barron received a call from his trusted men in the black society.As he gets inside his office, sinagot agad niya ang tawag."Speak..." his baritone tone was heard.Rene who is following her boss heard it. 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.
