The Bastarda's Contract with Mr. CEO CHAP 54
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

"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

*** "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.

I secretly bit my lower lip when a strong slap landed on my cheek."You really have no shame!" my mother shouted, or should I say stepmom.I didn't even glance at her enraged eyes; I just bowed. She informed me of this right away as soon as I arrived in our home's spacious living room. It's ironic to consider that this is one of those instances in which I'm unsure of what went wrong."You are no longer ashamed of your sister, nor of anyone else who will know! You are so desperate that you even seduced Mary France's boyfriend!"I couldn't stop to raise my head as my mouth parted. "W-what?" I said, confused.From her side, my sister smirked and gave me a disgusting look as she crossed her arms. "You're still acting innocent. You meant to flirt with Harry so he could break up with me, didn't you?" she alleged.Harry? That one of the architects I work with?I immediately shook my head in denial.I will never do that! I didn't even know that they were in a relationship.She swiftly crossed

"You are going to leave?" my friend Nexus said in shock when I announced my plan to resign.He's an architect like myself, and we both work for the same company. We are currently working on site to repair the landscaping; this was my final assignment for the organization to which we both belong.I softly nodded in agreement as I examined each design that the team we hired was working on.He asked inquisitively, "Why? Where are you going all of a sudden?"I paused what I was doing to look, then spoke to him politely. "In our company. Mommy requested me to go some errands," I replied.His slender eyes grew with time. "Did I hear it right?I couldn't help but find his response amusing. When Mommy dropped the bomb yesterday, he made me think of myself."Yeah. Even I can't believe it." I stared in disbelief at the employees. "I need to secure a deal with Mr. Revelar."I felt Nexus shifted from his place. "You mean Agustine Bhryll?" he asked, catching my interest.I gave him a frown. "You kn

"What should I do?" I pulled out my hair while resting on my soft bed.My freakin' card!It wasn't until after that that I realized what I had done earlier at the mall when I returned home. I've been here for about ten minutes, reflecting on the poor choice that was made over and over again.I groaned and stomped my feet in the air. "What a dumb head you got, Khrystal," I blamed myself.What if that man reached the limit of my card? Damn, Daddy will definitely kill me!Even though nothing has occurred yet, I'm already crying because I believe my predictions will come true. I can handle Mommy Francheska's rage, but I don't want to let Daddy down or rile him up.Three knocks on the door caught my attention. When it opened, I quickly got up when I saw Mommy Francheska entering my room."Mom," I uttered."Prepare your things," she told me. "You're leaving tomorrow," she added.I did not immediately move from my spot and processed what she said.She smirked when she saw my reaction. She mi

"I don't like it," he said directly after my presentation.I secretly clenched my hands behind my back. I was looking forward to it. However, I still hoped that everything would change after I laid out the plans.I could see the playful smirk on his lips, but my eyes didn't focus on it. My dad's disappointed look caught my attention at all. Even though it doesn't look like he's blaming me, I know he's disappointed because he also felt that we won't be able to get Mr. Revelar.The man stood up and unbuttoned a few buttons on his suit. "I'm sorry, but I am going to remove PIP Inc. from my list," he informed.My father forced a smile and then stood up. “It's okay. I understand if we didn't meet your expectations," said Dad, and aimed to shake hands.My heart felt like it was being squeezed while watching Daddy, who was pretending not to be affected by the failed transaction.Mr. Revelar shook hands with my dad, and then glanced at me. I could feel him smirking behind his back."Nice to m

I secretly played my fingers while sitting on his couch. My eyes followed him as he walked towards the kitchen. His unit was big, just right for someone who wants luxury space.I don't know where the man he was with earlier, all I remember was they got separated while we were walking. Maybe he’s staying somewhere else close to him.In less than a few seconds I saw Mr. Revelar walking back carrying two liquor glasses and a small ice bucket. His eyes were fixed on me as if he was waiting for me to do something bad.I adjusted on my seat when he sat next to me, even though he wasn't too close I could still feel his movements."So, what brought you here, Ms. Dagsinal?" he asked casually as he opened the liquor.Involuntarily, I swallowed hard. "To get my card," I answered nervously.I knew, I planned this already. But I am still nervous because nobody knows if I will succeed."You are not planning to persuade me?" he asked directly.I bit my lower lip and slowly glanced at him. "If I am,

"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
