That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 33: Face to Face 2
Marahang dinala ni Gael ang baso ng alak sa kanyang bibig. Malalim na ang gabi subalit hindi pa rin siya makatulog o mas tamang sabihin na may gumugulo sa kanyang pagtulog. A woman. A woman's face to be specific. The face of Charlize Sandejas. There's something in her that was haunting him-- a heavy feeling he cannot shake off of his chest since she met her accidentally yesterday.He scoffed and down the glass of drink in his hand. The woman was really something. But he must not be fazed. Si Charlize ang puno't dulo ng lahat. May kasalanan ito at ang pamilya niya sa kanya. At naroon siya para maningil. Limang taon niyang pinaghandaan ang muling pagkikita nila ng dating asawa. He studied and worked hard-- pushing himself to the limits every time. Lahat ng ginawa niya sa nakalipas na limang taon ay para sa kanyang paghihiganti laban sa mga Sandejas. At ngayon na ang oras ng paniningil.He was really in the country to finally meet her and have him lay down his terms sa kanilang pa
That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 34: Face to Face 3
Ang biglang pagbuhos ng malakas na liwanag sa kanyang kwarto ang nagpabalikwas kay Charlie mula sa kanyang higaan. The light coming from the windows of her room were blinding she wanted to throw an endless fit. "What the hell!" gigil niyang sabi, marahas na itinakip ang mga kamay sa kanyang mga mata. "Yeah, exactly! What the hell, Charlie!" anang pamilyar na boses ng Uncle Joshua niya. She groaned inwardly and squinted her eyes to look at her uncle. Agad siyang napangiwi nang makita ang nakapamaywang na bulto nito sa paanan ng kama niya. He looked serious, ready to explode. Shit! "W-what time is it?" she asked in a hoarse voice, reaching for a pillow and hugging it tight. "Time to get your ass out of bed and go to fckin work!" singhal ng tiyuhin niya. The curse made her wince. Lalong nalukot ang mukha niya, yumuko at isinubsob ang mukha sa unan na yakap niya. Sanay siyang magalit ang Uncle Joshua niya. She had lived with it for the past five years while he trained her as
That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 35: Wrong Way
Gigil na nagmartsa pabalik ng kotse niya si Charlie. Paano, ni hindi siya hinarap man lang ni Mr. Reyes, ang may-ari ng New Edge Bank. Nagpasabi lang ito sa sekretarya nito na may urgent meeting itong pupuntahan at na bumalik na lang siya sa susunod na linggo.Inaksaya lang nito ang buong maghapon niya kakahintay sa wala!She huffed and walked over to her waiting car. Si Jacob ang nagbukas ng pinto para sa kanya. Habang papasok siya sa sasakyan, narinig niyang tumunog ang cellphone niya. She threw her handbag in the backseat and caught her head between her hands. Hindi na niya kailangang tignan ang kanyang cellphone. She knew it was her Uncle Joshua who was calling. Kanina pa ito humihingi ng update sa lakad niya. At wala siyang maibibigay!Muli siyang nagbuga ng marahas na hininga at pumikit. Masakit pa rin ang ulo niya dahil sa ginawang paglalasing kagabi. But what can she do? She can’t get her mind off that jerk Gael and his threats!Muntik na nga siyang magsumbong sa Mommy niya k
That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 36: Wrong Way 2
Charlie kept on shifting on her seat. She had been there at the Gold Hotel’s restaurant for almost half an hour now subalit hindi pa rin niya nakikita ni anino ni Mr. Reyes. Pasado alas siete na ng gabi subalit wala pa rin ito doon.Nagkamali kaya si Gray?Nanlumo siya sa naisip, muling dinala ang wine glass sa kanyang bibig. Ilang sandali pa, lumapit ang waiter upang muling lagyan ng alak ang kanyang baso.The waiter gave her a smile. He seemed friendly.“Can I ask you a question?” hindi na niya ito napigilang tanungin. Agad na tumango ang waiter. “Do you know where in your private rooms here in the restaurant could Mr. Reyes be?” She gave him a sweet smile and discreetly pushed some thousand bills in his hand.Kumurap ang waiter, pasimpleng sinilip ang laman ng palad nito bago alanganing nagpalinga-linga at bahagyang yumuko. “The meeting is in a suite upstairs, Ma’am. Room 314,” bulong nito.She cleared her throat. Kung gayon, wala talaga sa restaurant ang taong sadya niya. “But you
That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 37: Pity
Panay ang marahang pagdampi ni Charlie ng cold compress sa kanyang ulo. She’s now inside the room she booked. Doon siya dumiretso kanina habang kinakausap ng management ng hotel sina Mr. and Mrs. De Vera, including Gael, dahil sa gulong nangyari.She had minor cuts on her face and her head still hurts like hell. But aside from that, she was fine. The doctor the hotel management called made sure of that. Well, her ego was a little hurt for what seemed like an initially brilliant plan she had turned out to be not brilliant at all.Muli niyang idinampi ang cold compress sa ulo niya at pinakatitigan ang mukha niya sa salamin. She can’t help but curse under her breath. Hindi siya pwedeng umuwi nang gano’n. Magtatanong ang mga kasama niya sa bahay—ang mga katulong at lalo na ang mga bodyguards niya.She bit the bottom of her lip and rein in her tears. She can’t help but pity herself. She looks like shit and she still hadn’t talk to Mr. Reyes.She felt like a failure through and through!Why
That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 37: Pity 2
Muling napairap si Charlie sa tanong ni Gael, mabulis na namumbalik ang inis sa kausap. “I don’t answer to you, Mr. Bernstein,” she replied, sarcastic.She turned and reach for her purse, putting her cellphone back in. Subalit pagharap niyang muli, nasa harap na niyang mismo sa Gael.His stares were heavy but she braved and met them. “Gusto lang kitang paalalahanan, you are still married to me, Charlize.”She scoffed. At ano ang ibig nitong sabihin? That he could meddle with her affairs as he pleases? Talagang sinusubok ng lalaki ang pasensiya niya. Namaywang na siya.“Ngayon asawa mo ko but last night you clearly rubbed it on my face that you want a divorce. Nagpapatawa ka ba? And why the hell would you care about my affairs, Gael? It’s not like people knew about us. I never even took your name. It remained right there on that damn piece of paper. You are so damn free to take it and I wouldn’t even care! At saka bakit ikaw, pinapakialaman ba kita at ang fiancée mo?” Pinagdiinan niy
That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 38: Pity 3
A sudden knock on her door made Charlie stopped fixing herself on the mirror. Late na siya sa pagpasok sa opisina pero may umiistorbo na naman sa kanya.“Come in, the door’s open and I’m decent,” sabi niya, muling itinuloy ang pag-aayos.Madaling araw na siyang umuwi kanina mula sa Gold Hotel. Matapos ng mga nangyaro kagai, kinailangan niyang magkaroon ng oras para umiyak.It was cut short though because she promised Levi that breakfast chat. After Levi finished his breakfast and went to the pre-school, she went ahead and cried again.She was a crying mess the whole night. She felt like she’s inadequate and incompetent to be the leader of SSL. That made her question her worth yet again. She felt like she’s failing everyone all the time. Like she’s stuck from where she was five years ago when she failed her family many times.There were days that she still pity herself for the consequences of her wrong decisions. But she was trained not to dwell on them for too long. Her Dad and uncles
That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 39: Solution
Pagod na umupo si Charlie sa executive chair sa opisina niya. She had been to three different banks just this morning, but all the same—they refused to consider her loan. Heck! They didn’t even gave her a chance to explain or hear out her plan on how will they pay the loan. They just rejected her outright like she’s some penniless start-up businesswoman who doesn’t have a penny on her name. She’s a Sandejas for goodness’ sake! She still owns the biggest shipping lines in the country! They’re experiencing a little setback now but still, she still has her name and money. How could they treat her like trash? Like she’s some kind of a leper who must be avoided at all times! She leaned on the back rest of the chair and closed her eyes, frustration, pity and worry drowning her all at once. Kanina pa niya gustong umiyak, pinipigilan lang niya. She knew if she’d allow herself to cry now, baka hindi na siya tumigil. The past two days had been too much. Idagdag pang ginigigil siya ni Gael
