Rosie carried the luggage upstairs, but when she came down, she was carrying a bigger suitcase."I will fax you the rent consent form later. Don't forget to sign it and send me a copy.""Where are you going?" He closed the computer and put it aside, frowning slightly when he saw the suitcase she was carrying.Sebastia came here not because he had nowhere to go, but because there were many suspicious things about Spectra that he wanted to figure out. Kung aalis ito, para saan pa ang malaking binayad niya para lang manatili siya sa villa na ito nang kasama ang babae?"I'll stay at the hotel. You've paid so much for the rent, and it would be too rude for me to stay here. I'll make room for you. The whole villa... no, the whole area within a hundred miles is yours,” deklara ni Rosie nang nakangiti. Agad na naalarma si Sebastian nang marinig niya iyon.“No. You can’t leave me here alone,” Sebastian objected."Uh…” Rosie smiled, but because of the mask on her face, she looked a little stiff
The two of them finished their meal quickly, almost devouring it in a flash. Napatingin si Sebastian kay Spectra at napatitig sa babae. Hindi siya makapaniwala sa mga nakita. Paanong ang isang maliit at payat na babae ay kayang kumain nang marami? Most of the food on the table went into Spectra’s stomach.The good appetite of the person opposite him was also passed on to him, and he was able to eat one more bowl of rice than usual.Matapos ang dinner na iyon ay pasikretong tumungo roon si Anita. Tahimik niyang niligpit ang dining table at nag serve ng paboritong tea ni Sebastian. Iniwanan lang niya iyon sa mesa at agad ding umalis.Rosie was just enjoying the days of being served, when Sebastian suddenly asked her again. Tila hindi na yata mauubusan ng tanong ang lalaking ito.“How tall is that woman?”“Which woman?” naguguluhang tanong ni Rosie.Sa tuwing busog na busog si Rosie ay hindi kaagad napoproseso ng kanyang utak ang mga bagay-bagay kaya hindi niya kaagad naintindihan ang ta
Ivy’s face immediately turned red—hindi dahil sa galit kundi sa kahihiyan.“Mr. Villafuerte, please respect yourself. I don’t know you well, don’t try to get close to me,” masungit na sinabi ni Ivy kay Seymour na ikinagulat ng huli.Nasa harapan sila ngayon ni Cornelia—ang future mother-in-law niya kaya hindi maaaring magbago ang tingin nito sa kanya at magbigay ng duda dahil sa sinabi ni Seymour sa kanya.Agad na napansin iyon ni Reniella kaya mabilis siyang tumayo sa gilid ng kanyang anak at matalim na tiningnana si Seymour.“With all due respect, Mr. Villafuerte, my daughter is pure and our family is good. Don’t talk nonsense and affect her reputation.”Nangunot ang noo ni Seymour nang makilala ang matandang babae. Dalawang beses pa lamang nakakapunta si Seymour sa bahay ng mga Samaniego, at sa dalawang beses na iyon ay si Reniella lamang ang palagi niyang naabutan. Hindi niya maunawaan kung bakit tila bigla itong nagbago.Sa tuwing pumupunta siya sa bahay ng mga ito noon ay inaasi
It was more than an hour after dinner time. The butler put food on the table while explaining why he was late.“Pasensya na, Young Master. Bigla hong dumating ang mommy niyo kaya hindi kaagad kami nakakilos.”Napaawang ang bibig ni Sebastian nang marinig ngunit agad ding tinanguan ang butler na may dala ng mga pagkain nila.“It’s fine.”Ni hindi na niya tinanong kung bakit nagpunta ang kanyang ina dahil alam na niya ang posibleng dahilan. Marahil ay tungkol ito sa totoong kalagayan ng kanyang mga mata at gagamitin na naman nitong dahilan iyon upang maging mapagmataas sa iba.Or maybe her purpose is the same as those uninvited guests, who just want to find him his next wife. Maybe she has already found one and is here to take credit. In any case, it’s definitely not good news.The meal was the same as at noon, and the table was again full of food, but there was an extra dish of spicy crab!Nang makita iyon ni Sebastian ay agad siyang nagtaka.“Why did you put this in as well?” tanong
Sebastian suddenly pulled Spectra out and pushed the door open. Agad niyang nilock ang pintuan mula sa loob, leaving the woman outside. Agad na nakaramdam ng kaba at takot si Rosie dahil roon.It's completely dark outside. The lake in front was flashing with a faint light, and the shadows of the trees beside the road were swaying like monsters. Nang biglang umihip ang malakas na hangin ay tuluyan nang niyakap ni Rosie ang kanyang sarili dahil sa lamig na dala ng malakas na hangin.Although her body was cold, the fire in her heart was burning brightly.Naiinis na binalingan niya ang pintuan at kinalabog iyon nang marahas.“Open the door, Sebastian! What do you think you’re doing leaving me here outside?! Nakikituloy ka na nga lang dito at ngayon ay iiwan mo ako rito sa labas? You’re going too far!” Hiyaw niya mula sa labas habang patuloy ang takot na nararamdaman niya sa kanyang puso.Muli niyang kinalabog ang pintuan ngunit wala siyang nakuhang sagot kahit isa. Seryoso ba ang lalaking
This woman always manages to surprise him.Ivy looked like a lady, but she really made him happy just now. The woman was very open-minded, much better than the 18th-tier actress he just hooked up with.“I can’t,” Ivy replied to him directly. Nilapitan lamang niya si Seymour at mabilis na hinalikan ang pisngi nito saka lumayo rin. “Hindi ako puwedeng matulog kasama mo. May 8 p.m curfew ako. Kung gusto mong maging madalas ito ay huwag ka nang kumontra, pero kung gusto mo akong makasama nang matagal…”Ivy left her words half-finished and stopped talking on purpose.Batid ni Seymour na tinutuya lamang siya ng babae kaya napako ang atensyon niya rito.“What is it?”“Come to my house and propose to me. Pakasalan mo ako,” ani Ivy at sinundan niya ito ng malutong na halakhak.Ivy’s laugh echoed through the room. It was just a joke and she didn't take it seriously. From the moment she agreed to go on a date with Seymour at the hotel, she knew what would happen, and she also knew that the close
Rosie held back her laughter and walked up to Sebastian."I'm going to do the laundry in a bit. May mga labahan ka ba? Isasabay ko na sana ang mga damit mo,” paanyaya niya sa lalaki.Tumaas ang kilay ni Sebastian sa narinig. Spectra suddenly became upright? No. Sebastian wouldn’t fall for it so easily. Sa saglit na panahong nakasama niya ang babae sa iisang lugar ay kilala na niya ito. She might not be planning anything bad, but there’s still a possibility.Umiling na lamang si Sebastian. “No, thanks. I have a servant. Anita can wash them.”“Edi ‘wag,” simpleng sagot ni Rosie at pumanhik na kaagad.Hindi pa man tumatagal ang ilang minuto nang makaakyat ang babae ay may narinig nang sigaw si Sebastian kaya tinanaw niya ang pangalawang palapag. Maya-maya pa ay nagmamadaling bumaba si Rosie habang tila problemado ang ekspresyon nito. “Mr. Villafuerte, I'm sorry, I wanted to clean your bed cover, but I accidentally knocked over the water cup, and the cover got wet…” paghingi ng paumanhi
The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and the housekeeper couldn't bring them food, so they had to make their own lunch. There is everything in the refrigerator, but no one knows how to cook.Nagdesisyon si Rosie na magtimpla na lamang ng gatas saka kumuha ng tinapay at nilagay iyon sa toaster. Matapos niyang gawin iyon ay bumalik siya sa sala at binigay kay Sebastian ang isang tasa ng gatas pati na ang tinapay. Fortunately, Sebastian was not picky about food, so he was fine with anything he could eat. After lunch, the rain continued to fall, with no sign of stopping!"Will there be a flood?" Rosie said, and what she said came true.The artificial lake between the two villas is originally a depression, and the water level would rise when it rains, but it’s not a big problem. The rainfall was heavy and rapid this time, and all the rainwater from the mountains flowed into the artificial lake, and the water level rose at a speed almost visible to the naked eye. Although ther
