Taming The Billionaire CHAPTER 1
I seriously grabbed the portfolio folder on the table. Irritation suddenly etched in my express when I saw the background of the man I am going to married. This is my only ace to keep my name clean and to cover up myself from the issues and speculations happened these past few weeks.Ang galing nga ng mga magulang ko dahil alam nila kung sino ang lalaking makabubuti para sa akin. I'm not obsessed with this man but for God's sake, we both know that if our path would crossed at the same spot, we'd feel the blazing wildfire of anger and we might burn each other's heart for the second time."What if he wouldn't like you, Audra?" usisang sambit ni Jam.I leaned myself on my chair while looking at the other subpoena where they are petitioning for my licence suspension."Gustavo still the same. Huwag mo akong pangunahan dahil ako ang nakakilala na sa kanya," sipat ko."Oh, really? You're so confident with your intuition-""Doon naman ako magaling," putol ko."The news were all over the highe

"Alam mo bang kinausap din 'yan ng ama niya dahil gusto ka rin daw niyang maging asawa ni Gustavo?"Maaga pa lang, marami na itong sinasabi sa akin na kinagaganda ng buong araw ko kahit alam ko na kahit anong oras ay mawawalan ako ng lisensiya. All the things that I am doing is just a little precaution to save my hard-earned title. Ang sarap lang mag mura dahil wala na nga akong naibibigay na oras kay Rajah, nagkakaroon pa ng ganitong issues. "Just hope that the discussion will be clear and successful, Jam. Malilinis din ang pangalan ko." I fixed my long hair and tied it loosely. "But their intentions are good. Antenor family really likes you. I overheard so many things during the party we have aattended. This is your validation, girl." Jam took her bag.We're both working on my father's law firm. Pareho kami ng pinapasukan ngunit ngayon ay ihahatid muna niya ako sa korte. I still have a case to settle. Sa sasakyan na ako nagpatuloy na nag-ayos dahil kaunti lang ang aking gamit na d

Naiinis kong pinatay ang tawag at binaba ang cellphone ko. I went out of my car and walked straight to the entrance of this hotel.I was about to take my walk straight to the grand entrance when I was spotted by Ellie and her entourage. She's currently on her interview about her latest post on social media. I am not one of her stalker, I was just using mine to keep myself updated for my next moves.I am not Attorney Audra Graciano for nothing."Minsan, kailangan din nating uminom para ipakita ang tunay nating anyo. Malay natin, may mga ahas at malandi sa gilid."Honestly, I don't care about her statement. Hindi ko nga alam kung sarili niya ang tinutukoy niya o ako. Hindi na sana ako mapapansin ng mga paparazzi nang lingunin niya ako. Unti-unti kong inangat ang aking tingin sa kanila habang hinahalughog ko ang cellphone ko sa clutch bag ko."Miss Audra, nasa live television po tayo, we would like to ask for a confirmation about the issues between you and Alex Sandoval.""Gusto na lang

"Mayroon ba tayong unfinished business, Audra?"Napaghahalataan ko na 'tong lalaking ito. Napakapersonal kung magsalita. Maraming ibig sabihin ang bawat salita niya. Pero parang ako lang ang nag-iisip ng kakaiba."We need closure about the past, Gustavo. There are so many ups and downs we went through... and, uh... we didn't make it in the first place."Nang-iinsulto siyang umikot para tanawin ang mga ilaw ng bayan. "Why don't you just tell me that you want me back? Dami mong alam."I pouted and remained facing at the house. Nakasandal sa railings ang aking likod. Nilingon ko siya at nakita kong titig na titig siya sa akin."Sa dinami-rami kasi ng lalaki, sa pamilyado pa? Tapos ngayon, idadamay mo ako sa kalokohan mo? You've never grown up, Audra."Mapanghusga niyang pa rin akong tinititigan. What he said was really insulting and it pissed me off."Excuse me, Gustavo! I did! I've grown too far. I've been independent! Stop judging me. Hindi na ako gumagawa ng kalokohan. And mind you! I

I smiled at him sarcastically. Ang lakas ding manumbat ng isang 'to. Masyado siyang mapanghimagsik ng salita."If you are wearing the same shoes I am wearing and try to walk a mile, man, you'll understand me."He's still shaking his head with dismayed. Malayo ang tingin niya sa akin at wala ring ibang ginawa kundi ang ngumuso."Hindi na tayo bata para maglaro," sabi niya."You'll have a price," agad kong sinabi.I wanted to hit my head in the wall. If he hadn't seen and heard me, I would've done something better to divert his attention."And what would it be, Audra? I am not a materialistic, though. Don't be so arrogant."Kung maaari ko lang sanang sabihin na hindi ang inaasahan niya ang kapalit, sinabi ko na. Kailangan din niyang matutuhan na ang isang bagay na minsang nangyari ay may kapalit. Hindi pa ito ang tamang panahon dahil marami pang bagay ang hindi handa. "Naiintindihan ko ang gusto mo. You are good at that. Manipulating my feelings that your feelings are valid than mine..

Napakatamis nang aking ngiti na sumunod sa kanya sa elevator. Of course, I prepared myself to face him without being intimidated by his ruthlessness. Hindi ko sinasabing takot ako sa kanya ngunit may silbi pa ring nakilala ko siya noon nang lubusan dahil alam ko na kung paano ko tiisin ang ugali niya kapag naubusan ng pasensiya.My smile fades when I realized something. Do I still know him? Will I still know the man I’m chasing if anytime soon, truth reveals itself? I’m not holding the precious time. It passes by wihout my consent. As long as I want to hold it back, it runs as fast as it could.“Wait for me!” I said loudly and didn’t mind his employees on that floor.Gustavo problematically landed his palm on his forehead when he saw me. Bago pa magsara ang elevator, ginamit niya ang mga matitigas at maugat niyang kamay para pigilan ang pagsarado nito.Ilang minuto pa akong nakatayo sa harap ng elevator.

Mapaglaro kong tinignan si Ellie sa kanyang tinatayuan. The feeling of being insulted in her eyes is unexplainable. Kung akala ng karamihan, napaka-inosente ng isang ‘to. A devil is playing like a victim behind that angelic face. That’s disgusting. Magaling lang sa social media kasama ng mg pareho niyang nilamon ng Sistema ngunit hindi kayang manindigan sa harap ko. O matagal na niyang pinaninindigan ang mga bagay na pinapahid niya sa akin?“Kumusta ka naman na?” nang-inis kong tinanong.“I’m good. Trying to recover from what happened these past few weeks,” Ellie answered.Ngumisi akong bumaling sa kaniya. “I’m asking Gustavo. Not you, honey.”Ipapatikim ko sa kaniya ang pagsisisi na sumakay rito sa elevator kung saan ako. Same as the regrets she feels when she chose to bump me without checking on the lane where I’m on. Nakatutok ang kaniyang mga mata sa elevator button. In ayos na rin niya ang mga gamit niyang dala at handa na kaming taalikuran.“Bitch,” she muttered.When I step fo

I heard the knock on my door and froze, my hand hovering over the kitchen counter where I had been idly arranging the flowers Gustavo had given me years ago—now wilted and lifeless. Who could it be at this hour? I wasn’t expecting anyone, certainly not him.When I opened the door, there he was. Gustavo. My past standing before me in a perfectly pressed suit, his dark eyes carrying the weight of something he hadn’t yet said. I straightened my spine, forcing a brave aura to mask the tremor crawling up my neck. I wouldn’t let him see that he had any power over me.“What are you doing here?” I said curtly, my tone as cold as the steel doorknob I still clutched.He didn’t answer immediately, his gaze steady as he took me in. I realized I hadn’t offered him to come inside, and I wasn’t planning to. He’d stand there in the doorway like the intruder he was, and I’d keep the boundary intact.“Audra,” he finally said, his voice low but sharp, cutting through the silence like a blade. “I needed
