The Bastarda's Contract with Mr. CEO CHAP 12
"Ms. Dagsinal."I heaved out a deep breath. I can't count how many times he has called me since we entered his newly built office; made him coffee, stapled papers, photocopied, and more.Why did I even pursue architecture if I would only become a servant in the end too? Tsk!On the other hand, I felt relieved. I was more satisfied with his gradual order than with the miraculous change in his attitude. In this way, I know why he is torturing me—though it's really not that hard—because of what I did to him. But the way he treated me with such kindness, that’s what is difficult to decode.Yes, it's weird. But I am more comfortable with this. When he's nice or doesn't get annoy with me, I felt like I'm having a shortage in air. Every beat of my heart is getting fast and it felt like I was about to lose my organs in my stomach whenever he treated me differently. It's kind of... scary.I stood on the side of the office where my desk was moved onto and then went in front of Agustine. From lo

We ate silently. Until now, I am still trying to process in my head what is happening."You're still doubting?" he broke the silence.I looked up and met his gaze. For a few seconds, I tried to finished what I was eating before I cleared my throat."Can you blame me?" I shot another question instead of answering.He slowly licked his lower lip. "Then try me," he dared."By you, not fvcking me?" I raised an eyebrow.He nodded.I couldn’t help but laughed, "Of course, it's an easy option for you," I stated. "As if you can't bed another woman to satisfy your needs, Mr. Revelar." I smirked."What we are talking right now is about us, Dagsinal. To prove my sincerity, I won't touch you," he pointed out. "But as for your statement, if that can reduce your anger towards me, then I will not bed another woman."I clenched my jaw while still maintaining the eye-contact with him.Is he serious?"What made you change?" I asked him directly while taking a sip from my wine. "And why are you doing thi

I don't how did it happen, but I just find myself getting close with Agustine. We often eat lunch together, talking ‘bout stuffs, smiling at each other and more. True to his words, he never brought up about that fvck role thing.Unlike before, at work, where I almost end up like a secretary. He let me do things now. Like, designing rooms, landscapes or anything. There were also times when he asked for my suggestions regarding the hotel they were currently working at. I could say that for the past few days, we're really business partners slash friends."Are you free this evening?" Agustine asked when I was about to put my seatbelt.We were just about to leave the construction site of the hotel. So far, everything is doing well and there is nothing to worry about the project.I glanced at him. "Hmm. Kinda?" I answered and continued to settle on my seat."Wanna eat at my place?" he was biting a bit of his lower lip while whispering that question, he was immensely looking at the road and

I don't know how I managed to walk into Agustine's condo. I am astounded the moment he opened the door. Flower petals were scattered on the floor, there was also a candlelit table at the center of his home, I even saw two men on the corner. From their appearance I could tell that one was a waiter and the other was a chef.I looked at Agustine. He was also just looking at me with a small smile on his lips as I walked along.This is beyond my expectation.He pulled me a chair when we reached the table. I sat down coldly and silently watched him walk around to the seat opposite me. Once again, he smiled at me. A warm smile.On cue, the waiter went to our place and gracefully distributed the appetizer—Baked Crab and Artichoke Dip. At the same time, mellow music was playing around us. I bit my bottom lip while looking at Agustine and looked away because I could feel my cheeks heating up."So, do you like your new work?" he broke the silence when we started eating.I tried to clear my throa

"Does your family do nothing to stop people from looking down on you?" Agustine continued to ask stuffs about me and my family.We're done eating. The people he hired earlier for dinner have also left. Right now, we are talking outside his balcony. Leaning on the railings, holding a wine glass, and watching the stars in the peaceful sky.I flashed a smile and sipped on my glass. I glanced at the city lights below the building for a moment. It's peaceful."Whether they do something or not. It won't change the fact that I'm an illegitimate child," I said then looked at him.His eyes were focused at me. Once again, I lifted my lips to curve a smile. I really appreciate Agustine for how attentive he was at my words. Like he doesn't want to miss a single word that I say.I heaved a deep breath and looked at the sky. My smile faded slowly as I thought about my family."You know, I may have a complete family; a mother, a father, and a sister. But I still have a broken home."I laughed and to

"Stop seducing me, Khrystal," Agustine said firmly in a mocking tone when he saw me peeking through his pants."What? I'm just amused, okay?" I chuckled.He groaned and shut his eyes before walking towards the door. Decided to bring me home."Come on," he said impatiently.I bit my lower lip. "You know... we can do something about it," I murmured, and my face automatically heated.His eyes sharpened as his jaw tensed. "I told you, I won't do that again," he said."Well, you also said that..." I gulped and met his eyes. "It’s okay, if I want to, right?" I added slowly.I don't know why I am insisting this. Maybe because I want to satisfy him? Or myself?"Is this a test, Khrystal?" he asked darkly.I slightly pouted. "Do.. you not want to?" I hesitate to continue, gradually am starting to sound disappointed because of the feeling that he doesn't like me anymore. "Okay, take me home," I hoarsely added and walked towards him without looking.I gasped when a strong arm held my waist as his

"Oh my ghad..." I whispered as I looked at my naked body.I carefully shifted my sight to the man who was fast asleep next to me. I blinked a few more times trying to stop my mouth from hanging wide open. The memories of last night came flooding back—how we talked, how I thought, how we made love."I won't allow you to come home without me becoming as your boyfriend."I shut my eyes tight when Agustine's words lingered in my mind.You're fvcking crazy, Khrystal!My head was in fvcking turmoil. It's only four o'clock at dawn but my mind is full of things.Last night, I told myself that he's my home. I freaking admitted to myself that I like him. Thinking about my thoughts that time, my heartbeat increased. Fear shook out my body.What if... I'm wrong?What if I was just carried away with happiness that is why I thought of those things? What if it's all just my illusion? What if the peace I felt at that time just pushed me to make a decision?Agustine has been good to me since our fight.

“Khrystal!” Nexus called me. He was looking evidently amazed and happy when he saw me coming in to the resort my former classmates chose to meet.He quickly stood up from the table where they were gathered and patted Jared who was on his side—a reason for him to stand up as well. They went to me and gave me a hug. In the corner of my eyes, I saw some girls glared at me. I don't give a damn about that. In the few years I have studied with them, I got used to their accusing stares."Nexus told me you were going but I didn't actually believe it. Knowing you, you'd rather hang out in the room than deceitful act like you are friends with the people here," Jared laughed in a low tone. "By the way, you look hot," he added—a little bit loud this time—and chuckled.I only grinned at him. I don't know how I was considered hot for my looks. I only wore a black fitted crop top shirt that I paired with a white tennis skirt and white shoes. Because I was in a hurry to escape from Agustine and didn'

*** "SIR, she's back," Miguel informed me. Finally, the day I've been waiting for has arrived. I looked at him and then put down the gym equipment I was holding. I wiped my face for a while then faced him again. "Set an appointment with her. Your earliest," I ordered. He looked at me before leaving in front of me. After five long years, I felt alive again. Damn, woman. You made me crazy. I have no news about her apart from the achievements I hear from other investors. I could not stop myself from smiling every time they are praising her works. I am proud of her. In the midst of the filthy name that rests on her, she managed to bloom in her own way. She's now a respectable architect. A famous one. Can't wait to see you soon, my wife. Sunrise sunrise. I already fixed myself. I almost spilled the mango on my clothes. I am nervous and excited at the same time. "Is she inside?" I frowned and asked the secretary. "Yes, sir." I knocked several times but no one answered.

"How are you, hija?" my mom spoke as we ate our dinner, she's talking to her friend's daughter, Lhea. I don't know why I always need to be present every time she's here. I knew he wanted the girl for me, but I never agreed with his plan. Although, I didn't decline either. I just let my mom think that I am following her orders. Well, as of now, there's nothing wrong with her plan. I'm not in a relationship, I also don't have someone I like. There's no need to oppose. "I'm doing good, Aunt. How about you?" the girl answered. I lazily tilted my head to look at her. She's pretty, I admit it though. We're friends too. Not bad for me. I saw her looking at me, her cheeks flushed when she found me staring at her. "It's okay. Even though I'm stressed here with my son," Mama complained. The girl, Lhea, chuckled. "Why, Aunt? Is there something wrong with your business?" Mom shook her head and looked at me with a sneer. I just remained my stoic face as I continued eating my food. "He's pl

As I peered into the pitch-black abyss, the chilly breeze embraced my body. Even though it's past midnight, I am back on the hospital's rooftop. I've been standing still and pondering things for practically an hour. I'll admit, Agustine's remarks stayed in the back of my head. I experienced conflicting emotions. Happy? Afraid? Bewildered. I let out a sigh and looked up at the stars. We are not a teen anymore. If we have decisions that need to be made, we don't have to go in circles. I suddenly remembered his interview five years ago. I quickly took out my cell phone and tried to find it on the internet. Luckily, it was still there. I'm shaking while clicking on the play button of the video. I held my breath when some reporters started questioning him. "Mr. Revelar, would you confirm that you are the person featured in the audio recording?" "Yes," Agustine answered directly and without hesitation. "Are you being blackmailed that time? Drugged? Or something?" Agustine's face ins

"Khrystal." I felt a faint tap on my shoulder as I heard my mother's voice. I slowly opened my eyes and saw her standing in front of me. I dozed off. I didn't realize that maybe because I was tired. I glanced at Gio and found him still sleeping. Next I looked for Gia. I smiled when Daddy was with her and gave her his peeled apple. "I'm going to buy our food outside first," said Mom. I immediately shook my head and then stood up. "Leave it to me. I'm also going to buy something outside." I faced Daddy and smiled in farewell before leaving the room. I haven't seen Agustine again since he and Lhea had a heated conversation. Where he went, that also I don't know. I took a deep breath while walking. Now that our past has been clarified, I can't help but regret it. Even so, I'm still thankful because what we went through made me stronger. I am not a good for nothing bastard anymore. I have made a name for myself and I have proven myself. If there was something bad about the separation

I tried to smile in front of Gio. "Baby . . ." I could hardly speak. "Mommy needs to tell you something." "What is it, Mom?" he replied weakly. I cleared the lump in my throat and moved a little. I let there be space for my son to see Agustine's presence. Gradually, my son's eyes grew bigger. "S-Sir," he mumbled. It was like my heart was pinched at that moment. I did not try to look at Agustine. I am afraid, sorry, and hurt. I felt him walking towards us. My son's eyes were focused only on him. His father's presence is awe-inspiring and clouding his vision. "Gio . . ." I barely managed to say. "S-son, Daddy . . . he's here for you." His eyes slowly shifted to me. His tears gathered more and more at the corners of his eyes. He could not believe what he heard. Once again, I tried to smile at him. "You don't have to hide anymore, baby . . ." I murmured. Gio's tears eventually began to fall across his face. His lips twitched as he looked back at Agustine. "Hey, buddy," Agustine

"Omg, girls have some class." My gaze shifted when a familiar voice spoke. I frowned when I saw Agustine's mother. She was standing in front with an expensive bag hanging on her arm. She let out a sigh and then walked elegantly towards us. Every sound of her heels as she stomped on the hospital floor did not escape my ears. "Where's my son?" she asked when she's finally in front of me. I stared at her for a second. I can't see any emotion on her face. I could not even decide whether to respond or ask back a question. "Mom." On cue, Agustine arrived. He quickly went to his mother and gently held her arm. "What are you doing here?" he added. "Well, I found out that you are here. Did something happen to you?" his mother was curious. Agustine quickly shook his head and looked at me. Asking for forgiveness even though nothing has happened yet. His throat moved before looking back at his mother. "Mom, please, go home. Let's talk at home. Don't make a mess here," I heard him murmured

I was pacing back and forth—waiting for him to show up—as I held tight on the pregnancy test. Almost two weeks had passed since I found out about it. I did not know what to do; all I knew was. . . I must tell him about our baby. It's been two hours since I got here to the lobby of his condo. As soon as I landed at the airport, I asked the taxi to send me here. I want to go up to his unit, but I am afraid of his reaction. I know he's mad at me, and it might trigger him to be impulsive. If I show up here in the lobby, he can still control because there are people around. I took a deep breath and calmed myself down. I avoided thinking about anything for fear that my child might be affected. I sat on the couch for a while to rest. Right after that, I finally saw him walking. His attention was not on me, but on the floor. I was about to rise from my seat when a child suddenly grabbed his hand. I was even more stunned when his fiancee followed. Our eyes met. I saw shock in her eyes, but

"Aren't you going to talk?" I took a deep breath and turned to face him. It's been almost ten minutes since we went up here on the hospital's rooftop. I invited him here so we can talk peacefully; that's what I believe. "I don't plan to hide them from you," I began. He scoffed. "Really? That's why I recently found out that I have kids," he mocked along with his intense glare. I bit my lower lip and looked away. "I was planning to tell you today." "Today," he repeated and laughed wearily. I screamed when he faced the wall and punched it hard. He let out a few more before looking at me again. I could see the pain and betrayal in his eyes. "You should have informed me right away when you found out you were pregnant, Khrystal! My children almost turned into bastards!" His veins nearly burst while screaming. "How can I let you know about my pregnancy if I thought you already got a family on your own, Agustine?! Do you think I also wanted to acknowledge my children as illegitimates?

My body seemed to be moving on its own. I don't know how to think properly. Even though my knees were shaking, I still managed to run. Lord, please, not my son. "M-Miss, Giovani Dagsinal, please," I asked at the nurse assigned in the emergency ward. "H-He was taken to the operating room," a familiar voice interrupted. I unconsciously made a turn in her direction. Her eyes swelled up. Her daughter was seated at her side, sobbing quietly while her elbow was bandaged. Both of them were seated on a hospital bed."Lhea, why are you here? And what happened to Dianne?" Agustine was curious. Her throat was hardly moving. She gave me a sympathetic glance. She started to say something, but then she quickly stopped.Ultimately, I decided to disregard her. I don't give a damn about her. My son is who I need to see. Agustine was following me, but I did not pay attention to him as I swiftly ran away."K-Khrystal," Mom said when she saw me. I ignored her. I immediately went to Gia who was sitt
