"Here's my promise to you." Jonas handed a brown envelop at Marigold. The envelope contains the information Marigold need. Although it's difficult for her to get it, but for Jonas, its as easy as picking a piece of paper trash. He easily picked up the information from the HR."Thank you so much, Jonas." Marigold said in gratitude."That's nothing, specially for you."Marigold chuckled and ignored his words, but she didn't noticed the strange light in the man's eyes that belong only for her.Only this past few days have Jonas thought how stupid he was. Why he had realized just now that he already fell for the woman infront of him. If he could only know, she didn't have to be hurt by his cousin and he could protect her."Alright, I'll go ahead. I need to take care of this."Marigold bid goodbye. She was about to exit the convinience store when jonas chased her:"Wait, I'll go with you."Jonas force himself to accompanied Marigold. Although she didn't want to disturb him as
"Do you know what she had done just to get where she is now?" Chardon asked Bryan."S-stop it!" Claire exclaimed. She agreed to be with Bryan if she couldn't get chardon, but if her secretly revealed, Bryan will probably abandon her.Bryan looked at Claire perplexedly. He saw the fear on Claire's face and he saw that the woman seems to have secret. "Don't beat around the bush, just say it." Although he likes Claire, but he didn't allowed anyone to play with him and make him an idiot like what he did to chardon. "For the sake of our... MOMENTARY FRIENDSHIP, let me share a piece information with you." Chardon smirked at the panicked Claire. She looks as if anytime she's ready to pounce at chardon to stop him. "Did you know that, her real name was Clara Tremblay? Her actual age is not 22 that she always blurted out to us to have an impression that she is still young and innocent; her real age is 34...." "Ch-chardon!..." Claire was about to step closer when Bryan grabbed her
Chardon hurriedly back on the villa, it was past eleven of the night. He grabbed the telephone ang called in a landline. He knew who he was going to call, surely by this time, he was fast asleep, but he didn't care.Someone answered the phone but he knows that it was a maid. The reason he called on the landline because he knew he couldn't contact the man's mobile phone. "It's Chardon.... call jonas for me." Chardon waited for a long time but impatient and annoyance could not be seen. Until finally, Jonas answered. "Hello?" "Tell her, if she want her bag... Go to my company tomorrow." Chardon abruptly said.Only then did Jonas woken up. "B-brother Chard?..... No! You called at this late hour just to say that? I won't let her step in C.A again, just give me her bag and I will give it to her.""Do you think you can dictate me? Know your place, jonas. I'm telling you this as your boss and not as your cousin... I think you can do this simple task I'm asking you to do, right?""
Marigold was fuming when heading to C.A. The guard couldn't stop her when she went straight inside. The receptionists were surprised when she suddenly appeared and passed them. One of them called her but she ignored her. Seeing the situation out of their control, the receptionist called security. As far as they know, marigold is not allowed to set foot in C.A like Vivian, so they knew that they should not let her enter.The two security guards chased Marigold. When the girl saw that someone was chasing her, she immediately ran."Stop!!""Hey, we told you to stop!!" Marigold quickly headed to the elevator and quickly entered as soon as it opened.One of the security personnel contacted the personnel in the control room and told about Marigold. They had it monitor marigold's movements and where she was heading to. When the two men found out that she was going up to the top floor, they were scared. Because they knew that the Ceo was hot-headed this past few days, they knew th
MARIGOLD: "Marigold..." Jonas called while leading me outside the C.A. building.I looked at him but he didn't speak, he just bowed his head. "I'm sorry... I couldn't help you." He spoke so softly that I could barely hear him."What are you talking about? You had help me so much. Besides, as I said earlier, from here on, I'll take care of myself.""B-but, brother Chardon said...""It's okay if I agree. Do you think there's still companies that will hire me if I have a criminal record? So, it's okay if I just go back to C.A, I really need a job."Jonas sighed. "I just thought, when you become his personal assistant, you will follow everything he order you to do. What I'm worried about–""Jonas.... "I understand what you're worried about, but you don't have to. Whatever happened between us before is now ended, he and I will be only a boss and secretary." I didn't let Jonas drive me home as I knew it's still working hourWhen I came home, I stared at my neighbor Mrs. Minda
Marigold was dumbfounded, but the woman didn't seem to care, she still has a smile on her face and introduced herself: "By the way, I'm Marisol Fontabella, nice to meet you." She took hand's hand and shook hands with it."Marigold Magbanua, right? That's quite amusing, isn't it? we can both call with the nickname 'Mari'.... Okay, I'll go first, your boss might be looking for me." Until the woman left, what she said to Marigold was still loading on her brain.It took a while before marigold came out of the restroom. When she returned to the table, she began to fulfill her duties at work, but her mind wandered. Mr. Javier noticed it, so he gave a constant reminder about the girl's mistakes.When the meeting was over, Marisol took them outside. Marigold was surprised when Marisol suddenly pulled her and kiss her on her cheeks. Even Mr. Javier and Chardon stratled. "Remember our deal, okay?" She whispered.Marigold was about to refuse and return the money but Marisol immediately walke
Chardon suddenly felt a bad premonition when he heard the noise outside, especially since Marigold wasn't on his sight. He immediately let go of Marisol's grip, but the woman didn't let him go. "Let go!" He growled.Even though she felt scared of the man, Marisol still held Chardon even tighter. 'This is my first step. I should succed.' she declared to herself with determination."If you don't let go, the cooperation between us will be over and C.A won't cooperate with you anymore in the future." Chardon's threat.The woman was stunned, she didn't see it coming. Her grip on the man loosened and he took advantage of it to get away. Chardon immediately got down from the villa and went to where the tumult was, he headed to the pool area. A lot of people were stood around the pool so it's impossible to see what they were fussing over there.Chardon almost pushed aside the girls on his way just to pass. When he finally got into the front, the struggling marigold in the water exposed to
MARIGOLD: Mother sela immediately handed me a glass of water. I looked at Mr. Atanante, he didn't have any reaction aside from being daze. Soon I saw his lips lifted. I turned at Mother sela. "U-um... mother sela, w-we're not–" "I think you have a point... I will consider it." Mr. Atanante cut in, and he continued his food. But why does it seems, his mood suddenly improve? there was also a trace of a smile on his lips. Won't he at least correct what mother Sela said to us?I just feigned ignorance and turned my head to eat. It looks like I'm the only one being awkward here, huh. After the meals, I bid goodbye to mother sela. She hugged and kissed me on my cheeks. She seems to like me very much and so do I."When will you come back? I'll cook you some of my specialties next time.... I have a reques, I hope you'll be more patient with sir chardon. He's actually a nice boy though he look a little grumpy on the outside, but he's-"Mother Sela stopped when Mr. Atanante cleared hi
At that time, the hall of the venue was packed of people. Aside from the guest, both of the two company's employees are also present that's why they almost exchange their faces while greeting each other."Looks the engagement are very lively today! I never thought it to be like this crow–hey!""S-sorry.... sorry..." Marigold said in apologized when she accidentally run into a socialite-looking woman. The woman was about to scold her when Marigold passed her right away Marigold went to the VIP suites floor. But first, she asked for manager's help to checked which suite Chardon was in, but when she went to his suite, the man wasn't there that's why she thought to look for him in the hall. 'Where is he? I couldn't even find Ms. fontabella, are they together now?' she suddenly stopped on her tracks at the thought of this. 'Wait, what if, they're indeed together at this time?' she felt perplexity and this made her wanted to see Chardon even more. She scanned the crowd who chattered hap
"Mr. Grove, what do you mean by this? With so many requests you can choose, why is that one?" Thomas commented abruptly."This is between the C.A Ceo and I, so I think you shouldn't interfere with us, am I right Mr McMahon?""But marigold is a executive secretary of the Ceo, what do you mean by kicking her out of the company? Don't you ever think that only our CEO has the right to remove her or maybe you think that because we need something from you, so you are free to make a decision or even make outrageous demand from us?" Jonas said as he arrives with his uncle Mr. Villaflores."Sorry, we're late." The COO, Mr. Villaflores apologized."I don't think I can grant your request Mr. Grove...... Now, let's start the meeting." Chardon declared as he ignored the foreigner's demand.Marigold breathe a sighed in relief, but when she's about to exit the room to get some cup of coffee, he saw Mr. Grove look as if he's throwing a dagger on her. She hurriedly came out. 'It seems, this ma
The next day, Marigold turned to look at the female employees who gossip nonstop early in the morning. She thought. 'Could it be they talked about both of the Ceo's engagement?' She suddenly felt sad, she sighed and set aside the negative emotions she felt. When she got inside the elevator, a man came running chasing the elevator door before it's completely shut. "Marigold, 'morning" the man greeted."Good morning, Jonas." Marigold greeted back.After he pressed the button, Jonas took a glance at the girl beside him. He suddenly recalled his conversation with his cousin last night:"I freed marigold for good, I sent her the contracts she signed. Isn't that what you wanted to get her out of the company–""Really?!" Jonas butt in and asked excitedly. "That's good, alas! The liquidated damage you're asking her is too much, it's not as if she's your business part– wait..... What have you done again?"Chardon came closer. "Our fight is over, because I have given up...... Take a good
"Sir, do you know this woman?" A cop asked as he saw the man's reactions.Chardon suddenly covered his mouth, his stomach seems to turned upside down and he felt like puking. He signaled the search and rescue officer to put back the cover. The cops looked at him intently while waiting for his response.When he finally calm down: "No, it's not her." He said to himself. 'Fortunately.... fortunately, it's not her.' He turned to the cop next to him. "Why is it swollen like that?"The cop answered. "This woman reported to be lost for almost a week, and because she's probably sunken in the water over those days, she inflated like that.In just one look, Chardon already knows that this woman isn't Marigold, not because of her identified appearance but because–that what his heart says. He let out a relieving sighed. It seems as if a thorn had been pulled out of his chest and his disturb and restless heart finally calmed down. He immediately left that place and proceed to his trip.The n
Marigold hurriedly went inside Marisol's room, but she was stunned when she saw the alive Marisol sitting on the bed while Adelaida was hugging her. Marisol caressed her mother's back while she's crying."Mom, stop crying. Can't you see that I'm fine. You heard what the doctor says right? My wound is not severe and maybe, I can even discharge today.""But... but... What if the shot was more fatal? You shouldn't took the bullet for that scumbag, didn't I told you and your father before, that uncle of yours is plague!" Adelaida blurted out as she's continues to cry.Marisol let out a sighed until she noticed marigold at the door. "Marigold?"Adelaida turned to them, when she saw the girl, she frowned. "What are you doing here?""Mom..." Marisol stopped her."Maybe you wanted to check if Marisol was really dying so that you can approach chardon freely? Maybe you're too happy when you saw my daughter was being shot, am I right?" Adelaida rant angrily.Marisol rubbed her forehead. "Mom!
The old man's hand slowly slip upwards the girl's leg, while she seems to be in a deep sleep. He grabbed her long skirt and he felt a little irritated. 'This thing disturbs my fun. This must be remove.' But before he could do something, a sudden knock on the door stopped him. The old man snorted in annoyance as his good time disturbed, but he still gave the person a permission to enter."Boss, we received a tip just now..... Colonel Matias called, he said, a businessman name chardon atantante reported about you to them."The old man was stunned at first before he burst of guffawed. His face turned crimson until his neck but still, he hasn't stop. This made his henchman wondered. Shouldn't his boss show some worries as the other party reported them, but why he's laughing happily instead? At that moment, they didn't notice the slight movement of the girl on the floor."It's funny..... Very funny! Hahaha!" The old man continues his hearty laughs. "He never know... He didn't really k
It's already dark outside when chardon's meeting with the executives finally over. "Tell Jonas to come to my office." He said to his assistant as he looked down on his rolex."Yes, sir." Mr. Javier answered and he's making his way back to his own office.Chardon sat down on his swivel chair and picked up a files. After a while, he stopped as he suddenly thought of something, then he dug out his phone. While in the meeting, he thought of giving Marigold a call to know if she's already checked-in. Before Jonas and Marigold left, he told his cousin to have the girl check-in on his own hotel and don't let her go home alone.Because Marigold told him about Alfonso's plan against him, he couldn't stay calm and compose anymore, he's not worried for himself but for the girl since the danger is just around the corner as long as Alfonso's there. He was worried the she might get implicate.He looked on his phone. It's been a while since he called Marigold. He thought, will she answer? Whe
Marigold was about to scream when one of the man spoke abruptly: "Miss, don't be scared, we mean no harm and we won't do anything to you. Our boss just wanted to speak to you."Marigold peeked inside the car, she do her best to see and to recognize whoever inside might be, but as the car was dark tainted she couldn't even say whether there is really someone inside."Miss..." One of the men opened the door and gestured her to get in.The girl glance at the goons-looking men then she looked around. There's a passersby but they seem to be unaware that she might kidnap today. She sighed and carefully get inside."We see again... miss secretary." Alfonso greeted. He chuckled. "Are you scared of me? Relax..... I just wanted to have a good chat with you. You know that I'm a known figure in the business circle and I have a reputation, that's why I won't do any wicked things"."B-but..... Isn't your reputation is now ruined?" Marigold asked innocently.Alfonso clenched his jaw and fist but h
Despite the happy events in the hall of A.C Prominent hotel, many people was seen on the floor. After picking up their selves, they're angrily complaining and asked around what had happened. And that's when they saw Alfonso who has being dragged down by the two security guards towards the exit of the hall, followed by Marisol who kept on bowing and apologizing to the guest. She was overly embarassed and she's really losing her face this time. She couldn't imagine the aftermath of this incident when this night was over.Marisol stopped as she's passed the man who seemed to be has something on his arms. When she scrutinized him, she noticed that the man has a girl on his arms. She wondered, what are these two doing hugging each other with the mess happened? She bit her lips, she couldn't help to feel jealous. All the love and care this man given to the girl, she hasn't experience of them yet.As for the reason why the man still hugged the girl in his arm and why he didn't l
