Shattered Vows Chapter 19
RafaelI was little bit impatient today. I can’t call my assistant because right now, she’s maybe at Javier’s side attending all his schedule.And the only one who left me is Norrine, one of my people I planted inside of his company. Her great intellegent towards at mathematics raise her position as Accounting Manager. I picked up my phone and dialed her number. It took two rings before she finally answered.“Sir,” she said, her voice steady and professional."Norrine, what's the status on the plan?" My voice was steady, but beneath the surface, a storm brewed.I stood before the towering glass wall. The sky was a brilliant blue, the sun casting a warm serene light over the chaos of my thoughts.My eyes traced the buzzling city but all I could see was my reflection on the glass wall with a dark expression on my face. I couldn’t help but to feel anxious now that I know that Javier would be there in the collaboration of Amara and Penelope’s business venture. The knowledge that he wou

JavierNaantala ang pagpunta ko sa meeting matapos kong mabalitaan na nagkaroon ng aksidente na nangyari sa mga dini-deliver namin na construction items.At first, it seemed like a minor issue, something that could easily be fixed by using another courier.Pero huli ko na malaman na mas malala pa pala ang sitwasyon. Our delivered items had been swapped, and some of it had already been used at the construction sites, leading to a major collapse.The replacement items were nothing but low-quality materials, halatang sinadyang palitan upang sabotahiin ang negosyo ko.And upon the investigation, it was revealed that the Montellions were behind it.I remembered how fiercely we competed to win Mr. Wei's favor, and despite the odds, I managed to convince him to side with us, causing a significant loss for the Montellions.I clenched my fist tightly, frustration washing over me.Ang insidenteng ito, kasama pa ang pagkakasugat ng ilan sa mga tauhan ni Mr. Wei, would severely damage our busines

JavierAfter calming myself down, I immediately executed my plan to address the problems that kept coming one after another.I turned to Serena, who was standing in front of me.“Please handle the press for me, Serena. If possible, tell them that I will hold a press conference with them as long as they take down the news,” I instructed.“Noted, boss. Then, I’ll take my leave,” she replied, bowing slightly before leaving my office.I looked up at the ceiling with a frustrated sigh.If Amara were beside me, she would have told me to stay calm and gather my thoughts. Even though we’ve been apart for a year, her presence still lingers in my mind.I shook my head, trying to push thoughts of Amara aside. There was no time for distractions. I had to focus on salvaging what was left of my crumbling plans.With a deep breath, I reached for my phone and dialed the number of my head of operations.“David, I need an immediate status update on the site where the collapse occurred,” I said, my voice

RafaelAs we settle down at La Estrella, I couldn’t help but stifle a laugh, my shoulders shaking slightly.“What’s going on?” Amara arched her left eyebrow as she reached for her coffee and gently took a sip.She’s so incredibly pretty and elegant in every way she moves. For a moment, I just stared at her, as if in this bustling coffee shop, everything around us blurred, and all I could see was her.I couldn’t resist snapping my fingers in the air, which made her jump a little.“You know Amara, if I were a woman, I’d be even prettier than you,” I said, chuckling.Amara rolled her eyes, and unknowingly, I smiled.Damn. I’m so lucky to have her as my best friend. Of course, a beauty like hers needs a goddess like me. If I had long hair, I’d already be flipping it.“You seems so happy today.”Marahan nitong ibinaba ang kaniyang tasa sa mesa.Isang malawak na ngiti naman ang binigay ko sa kaniya, “Of course! We should celebrate your successful meeting with Ms. Guevarra.Bahagya naman namu

After Rafael left and went to the washroom, I lightly tapped my chest, trying to calm myself.I can't deny that I was surprised when he said those things.Maybe even he, didn't realize that I heard what he said. I'm well aware that Rafa is a big fan of jokes and loves to tease me whenever he gets the chance.But what I didn't expect was, when he whispered about his preference between his thighs.Because of what he said, I couldn't help but feel embarrassed and awkward. I know Rafa didn't mean anything by it; even though he's gay, he has a buff, muscular body, and his features are masculine enough to fool any woman into thinking he's a real man.Dahil sa pakiramdam ko ay umiinit pa rin ang pisngi ko, tumayo na ako sa kinauupuan ko upang um-order ng ice cream. Habang nasa counter ay napabaling naman ang tingin ko sa wall tv na naka attached sa may gilid. Hindi ko napansin na mayroon TV pala doon kung hindi i-on ng isang staff nila. Bahagyang lumaki ang mga mata ko matapos makita an

RafaelAfter our coffee time, I drove Amara to one of my penthouses near the beach. To be honest, I was a bit surprised when she asked if she could stay there for a while. And who am I to refuse? After all, I'm her devoted best friend.Pagdating namin doon ay sinalubong kami ng malamig na hangin kasabay ng tunog ng mga alon. Pinanood ko si Amara habang nililipad ng hangin ang kanyang buhok, at tahimik niya itong isinuklay pabalik sa likod ng kaniyang tainga.Bigla ko naman naalala ang eksena namin sa loob ng coffee shop. Mukhang nag-aalala siya para sa mga empleyado ni Javier, pero naramdaman ko rin ang matinding galit niya para sa kanya.She might have sounded like she was worried about him, but the truth was, she wasn’t. At first, I had doubts, maybe, she still had lingering feelings for him. That’s why I tried to remind her that he wasn’t worth it.I was relieved to hear that her concern was solely for the employees and not for her ex-husband.She may have spoken calmly, but I coul

Javier Napakapit ako sa gilid ng lamesa upang mapanatili ang balanse matapos ang huling sampal na natamo ko dahil sa galit ni Mr. Wei. Ramdam ko ang malamig na patak ng dugo na umaagos mula sa sugat sa aking pisngi, ngunit pinilit kong pigilan ang sarili na ipakita ang sakit o galit ko. Alam kong hindi ako maaaring magpakita ng kahinaan, lalo na sa harapan ng taong ito. "Mr. Wei," mahina pero mariing sabi ko habang tinititigan siya ng diretso sa mata, "I assure you, I will handle this. Hindi makakaligtas ang Montellions sa ginawa nila. Hindi ko hahayaang tuluyang masira ang negosyo mo dahil sa kanila." Patuloy siyang naglalakad paikot sa opisina, parang isang hayop na na-trap, puno ng galit at kawalan ng tiwala. Tumigil siya sa harapan ko, ang mabigat na hininga niya ay parang nagbabantang bagyo. Nakita ko ang pait at galit sa kanyang mga mata hindi lang dahil sa pagkalugi, kundi dahil sa pride na tila nabasag. "Don't you dare make promises you can't keep, Villanueva," mari
Shattered Vows Prologue
AmaraIsang malakas na sampal ang dumapo sa aking pisngi galing sa ina ng aking asawa. Napatungo ako sa sakit, habang iniinda ito. "You still can't have a child after all this time? Pinahintulutan ko ang anak kong pakasalan ka, kahit na ayaw ko! Ngunit hindi mo pa rin mabigyan ng anak si Javier?" Sigaw nito sa mismong mukha ko.I noticed that ate Deanne stood up from her seat at inakay ang anak. She looked apologetically at me, bago ito lumayo kasama ang anak dahil sa ginawa ni mama. Si kuya Francis naman ay nanatili sa upuan na walang kibo. Napalitan ng seryosong ekspresyon ang mukha nitong kanina lamang ay may malapad na ngiti.Pakiramdam ko sa tuwing may pagsasalo ang pamilya ay ako ang sumisira nito. Ang dining hall na dapat napapalibutan ng kasiyahan ay napalitan ng kaguluhan. Kahit anong pagtitipon ay walang takas itong binabanggit ni mama. Wala akong nagagawa kung hindi ay yumuko at manahimik."Hindi naman kami nagmamadali mama." Sagot ng asawa ko sa marahan na boses ngunit an
