The Marriage Contract with the Vice Chairman Misunderstanding
I was very cold towards the vice chairman for three days. If he asks me, I would just answer him at that time and never speaks something again unless it is about my work.“Ms. Castro, where are you?” Mr. Darwin Montenegro asked from the other line of the telephone. “I need you in my office right at this moment.”After he said that, he hung up the call and I also immediately placed the telephone on my table. When I looked up and stood up from my seat, two of the employees on the floor passed by and gave me a concerned look. They only gazed away when they saw me looking at them.“Yeah. I heard from our department manager that they were fighting inside the vice chairman’s office,” one of the employees said to her cohort.“Do you know what they were fighting over?”“I don’t know. Rumors say that Ms. Castro is not suited for the vice chairman and his family disapproves of her as his wife.”“Ms. Castro must be sad.”“She had might initiated a breakup, right?”“Yeah, because Ms. Castro loves

The long, torturous ride was engulfed with silence inside the car. Both of us were not speaking to each other. My mind was also flying away about the forthcoming conversation I will have with Grace inside my apartment. I won’t even have second thoughts that she will only bicker with me.Something important, huh?It was loud and sharp when Darwin closed the door of the car. He did not even open the door for me, a sign that he is also matching the pride I have in not talking to him. I sighed in distaste while rolling my eyes in opening the door of the car. I just told the company driver to stay put in the parking lot until we finish our business in the boutique of Madame Margarita Montenegro.“Good morning, sir. Good morning, ma’am,” the saleslady greeted us when we have entered inside. She was smiling brightly. “Welcome to the boutique!”Darwin just snobbed the saleslady and proceeded towards the sofa in front of the dressing rooms. He went pass through the clothing racks without even

I dipped in the teabag repeatedly on the one cup after doing it to the other one. If there is anything that is bothering me right now, it is how intense I am by Grace’s presence inside my apartment. She is currently sitting on the sofa in the living area, waiting for me to set our hot beverages I am only willing to offer.With the two cups of tea in my hands, I proceeded to walk towards the living area. I saw Grace staring straightly at the wall and seemingly in deep thoughts. I do not know what her agenda, but because she will talk it out right now, my curiosity is not that high.“You have to be fast in talking to me. I have work to do tonight,” I said and sat in front of her while placing the two cups on the glass table.She blinked as if she only noticed that I have arrived when I spoke up. She sat up straightly and tightened her grip on her handbag. Her working clothes fitted her body right and her makeup is also light, making her natural beauty very enhanced.Even when we were st

My mind was flying away as I rode a taxi just beside the street of my apartment building. I kept watching the video Grace sent to me before she left my apartment and left me thinking about the things she revealed to me.The woman who was turning her back from the camera was wearing a fabulous white coat dress and her hair was I think faint ash brown color. That could be any woman I meet in our building, so it would have been hard to distinguish who it was.But after the nth time of watching the footage, I finally noticed something so interesting. I got up in sitting from the backrest and furrowed my eyebrows as I squinted my eyes in looking at a butterfly tattoo on her neck. It was a black one, a little bit lopsided on its position, and even if it is faint, I could see it through the footage.Black butterfly… huh?“Ma’am?” the taxi driver called me, making me avert my gaze from the cellphone to him.He looked outside the window of the car. I also followed his gaze and realized that we

I looked up and saw Darwin holding me close beside him. That distracted me to be discerning about the visitors in the party that are clearly not in favor about me. He then leaned me closer to the side of my face so he can whisper.“I’m sorry…” he said that made me furrow my eyebrows. “I don’t want you angry, sad, or upset with me. I am not comfortable, and I can’t let my pride be that more powerful over our forming friendship.”For the record, he is not the type of man who would say sorry. He would rather be an enemy to everyone than to bow his pride to anyone, even when he is at fault. ‘He stared at me as we approached his family’s table, like I was the only one who he could see in his eyes. At that time, there was nothing I could think about is how his complete attention is on me now. Not to the highfalutin socialites around us and how grand the engagement party we are having.“Hijo, Darwin!”We both cut off our gazes on each other when Margarita Montenegro called his name that als
Last Updated : 2023-01-26The Marriage Contract with the Vice Chairman But Because
I was not comfortable at all as I clamored with the whole Montenegro family and suffered the common introduction with the guest. Darwin was holding my waist for all the time, and because it is needed for us to act like we are a fine couple, I had to endure the awkwardness, even if inside me, I wanted to punch him in the face.Two hours had passed since we have done the grand dinner and toast. For me, everything was so fast, but I know that everyone has been satisfied that they came to the party, not because of me but because of the Montenegro family.Meh.

It was hell --- the whole party, I must say. Forcing my smile was a lot to take in and a difficult thing to do when you are surrounded with people who are only being vigilant when you make mistakes. But I was not bothered by the visitors, nor the Montenegro family --- it was Darwin who is making my mind crazy at the moment. “The investors of the company are active, while the directors are taking risks with them,” the chairman said from the capital while he is talking to a significant businessman, not far away from me. I sipped on my wine while eavesdropping his conversation with the visitors. Everyone looks so expensive at the party, and they were all clamoring with each other… except me. Right. This is my engagement party, and how ironic to sound that no one even wants to engage a conversation with me. The orchestra was engulfing the whole place, and I am barely enjoying it. It is actually too formal. Not for 21st century ladies like me. While shaking my head and watching the peo
Last Updated : 2023-01-28The Marriage Contract with the Vice Chairman Run Away
“First of all,” I mumbled and stood up straight, “for the past five years, I never had the intention to seduce my boss. We have always been professional, until we got close because the destiny made us connect with each other. Riches? Money? Properties? I don’t need them, because I am already satisfied with whatever I have right now. I don’t need Darwin to live, but I love him.”Everything I said was true, except the last words of my statement. I just hate the accusation he is making towards me. He is the reason why Darwin and I are having a misunderstanding right now.“I don’t believe you,” he said and lifted his thumb slowly, placing it under my chin. “Why don’t you marry me instead, Ms. Castro? I assure you that you would be in the right hands.”I stared at him firmly. I was glaring, while he was giving me a playful gaze. Jerks like him should be punched in the face, so he would know how it is so irritating to be played. My eyes ventured to the chairman’s direction and caught him wa

"Wow, congratulations, Jill! Highest ka sa reporting, ah?" komento ng isang kaklase ko nang magsabay kami sa paglalakad sa kalsada. "Ang galing mo rin kasing mag-English. Nakakadugo sa ilong, alam mo iyon?"Tinawanan ko lang siya. "Hindi ko talaga alam kung bakit sa English ko pa kung pwede naman sa delivery of speech, ate," aniko. "Pero thank you po!"Hoooo, nakakapagod kahit isang klase lang ngayong hapon. Marami kasing tanong ang instructor namin sa MSTE-1 tungkol sa topic ng reporting ko, at dahil ayokong mapahiya ay sinagutan ko lahat ng iyon kagaya ng pinag-aralan ko kagabi. I have always been competitive when it comes to academics without creating competitions against anyone. Gusto ko lang na mataas ang grades ko at malayo sa posibilidad na bumagsak ako. Nasa college na ako, kaya kailangan kong pagbutihan, lalo na at kasali ako sa scholarship program ng Cornelia Foundation College. Kumaway ako sa kaklase ko sa second year na pumunta sa waiting shed kung saan ang bus stop. Ako
The Marriage Contract with the Vice Chairman First
"Lagi ka talagang aabusuhin dahil sobrang bait mo," sabi ni mama sa akin habang kumakain kami ng hapunan. "Hindi pwedeng ikaw nalang lahat, Jill. Magtira ka naman para sa sarili mo." Nadiin ko ang pagtusok ng kutsara sa karne ng isda dahil sa irita ko. Nakatalikod si mama sa akin dahil nasa upuan ako, habang siya at ang dalawang kapatid ko naman ay nasa lamesa. "Oo, mama. Oo," sagot ko nang matigil siya. Mukhang nahalata niyang ayaw kong pinapangaralan ako ngayon dahil sa pagod kaya natahimik din siya. Hindi sa padabog ako kumain ulit, pero nagpatuloy ako nang nakasimangot. Ramdam ko pa ang tingin ng kapatid kong babae sa akin, pero hindi ko na siya tiningnan pa. Umalis ako sa boarding house dahil gusto kong matahimik ang buhay ko. Tapos paparangalan pa ako rito? Ano, dahil lang sa tumigil ako sa pagtatrabaho at wala na akong naibibigay na pera, gaganituhin na nila ako? Huminga ako nang malalim matapos kong isubo ang panghuling kanin at tumayo rin para ilagay ang nagamit na kubye
The Marriage Contract with the Vice Chairman Good
I grew up as an obedient girl until I became a teenager who is known to be cool and silent to many. I have struggles when I communicate with other people since I am not immune to any forms of socializing. Maybe because I never really understood the concepts of camaraderies and friendships. For me, I am content to be alone, even if there is a saying that no man is an island. "Are you okay?" one boy asked when he saw me watching the kids at my school playing in the playground. He was wearing our school uniform that looked cute in him. "You look lonely. Don't you want to play with the kids?"I furrowed my eyebrows and scanned his body up and down while sitting on the bench. "Do I know you?" I asked boredly, having no idea why he was approaching me. "How come that you don't know me? I'm your classmate," he said and chuckled. "You know what, maybe our classmates are saying the truth. You are very distant and mean.""I don't know why you have to nose your business with me.""I just want t

"Shit! Fucking shit! How do I fucking do this shit?""Anong ginagawa mo?" rinig kong tanong ni Irise sa aking likod."Wait lang, Irise. Baka hindi ko mapantaya-- FUCK!"Kung may mas mailalakas pa sa pagmumura ko, iyon na ang malakas na halakhak ni Irise. Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin mula sa salamin, pero hindi siya natigil sa paghahampas sa akin habang natatawa. "Tigilan mo nga ako, Irise!" naiinis na sambit ko at nagpatuloy sa ginagawa, ngayon ay sinusubukan ulit makapokus. Humalukipkip naman siya. "Bakit ka ba kasi nag-e-eyeliner? Sampung minuto ka nang nasa labas ng kwarto natin. Akala ko kung ano nang ginagawa mo, pero nakaharap ka lang pala sa salamin!"Kung maputi lang ako, baka sa pag-init ng aking mga pisngi ay namula na ako sa pagkapahiya. Gusto kong maapektuhan sa tanong ni Irise, pero binalewala ko lang ang katotohanan sa magiging sagot ko. "Wala lang. Sayang kasi ang eyeliner na nabili ko sa SM noon, so... ano... nagta-try lang," rason ko.She snorted. "Hmmm... talaga lan

The Marriage Contract with the Vice Chairman Tired
Maybe it was the fact that I was bothered what happened last night that I was spacing out when I went to the office the next day of work. “Secretary Castro? Are you okay?” an employee asked me when she approached me. “The paperworks you are holding are being blown away from your table.”“Huh?” I said and turned my head to the direction of my cubicle. My eyes widened when I saw that my papers are being blown away from my table that is caused by the huge air conditioner’s fan. It made me curse and ran towards it. “Shit!”The employee also lurched forward to help me get them. She kept raining me with questions if I am okay, or why I have not noticed my paperwork. I just kept nodding because I just want everything to be organized, and yet I a messing it all up. “What about your coffee, ma’am?” the female employee asked me again innocently.“Fuck…” I murmured and dropped all of the paperwork on my table. “Why is my day doing this to me?”Without wasting time, I approached the coffee mach

The Marriage Contract with the Vice Chairman Forever
I don’t know if I am just being paranoid that I keep noticing the vice chairman slowly having a fondness in hanging out with me. He would just casually arrive in front of my apartment, because he would like to watch movies and cook meals in the kitchen. And even if I am working late at night in front of my laptop, I could see him falling asleep on my sofa while hugging my squared pillow.“Want some coffee?”I looked up and saw Darwin who is placing a hot mug that contained black coffee just beside my laptop. I hung my jaw and looked around in the lobby, discerning if some employees are watching us, and thankfully, they are busy.“Mr. Montenegro,” I called him with almost shutting my eyes in fluster when I turned to him. “You have to understand that you are not supposed to do this.”He frowned and sighed boredly. “Let me guess; because you are my secretary and it is not my job to serve you on the other hand,” he said and crossed his arms. “But this does not concern anyone, Jill.
