The Marriage Contract with the Vice Chairman I Don't Like You For My Son
I placed the two cups of coffee on the table for Mrs. Margarita Montenegro and his son who is my boss. Even from arranging the small plates of sliced cakes respectively in front of them, I could feel the curious and meaningful gazes of Mrs. Margarita while she was talking to his son. To give them privacy inside the office, I went outside to attend to the remaining errands Mr. Montenegro tasked me to do.“Here are the files, Ms. Castro,” a male employee said and offered me the portfolio I made him grab from the printing office. “They are said to be the pending work papers that need the personal signatures of the executive director and the vice chairman.”“Oh, thank you so much. I will have to distribute these papers to the members of the board.”“You’re welcome, Ms. Castro.”I nodded as regard and then did not waste time reading the files again whi

I never heard anything like a label like that to me. People always compliment me because of what I am capable of, and I never did anything wrong to anyone. And just because I am acting like a wife to Mr. Montenegro, I would deserve to be called a gold digger?I breathed in and out silently. Chill out, Jill. You have to handle this elegantly. If you react impulsively, Mrs. Montenegro would not like you anymore. Maybe she is just saying this for you to break up with Mr. Montenegro, which is not gonna happen because the add-up salary is such a waste!“Mrs. Montenegro,” I called her with a smile on my face and stepped forward for her to hear me. “I don’t care what other people think about me, and that is the thing you do not about me…”Her eyebrows furrowed and her arms crossed even when I was still speaking. For me, it is a defensive stance of a woman.“You may not care. For you, it would not pierce you, but Darwin will be affected. Not just him, but his reputation, and our family’s repu

“What are you doing here?” I asked Cielo who is in front of me.I saw him gulp intensely. “I told you in my text, that I want to talk to you,” he said. “Have you not read it?”Instead of answering him, I just rolled my eyes and gazed at the wall beside us. I sighed, not answering why I decided to agree to talk to him at the back of the Starbucks coffee shop. We even left Mitch inside!“Jill,” he called me, but I did not turn to him. “I know that you do not want to talk to me, but I have been thinking things a lot lately…”I furrowed my eyebrows and slowly turned to him. His eyebrows were parted and his eyes were flickering with guilt and sadness.“I was thinking about you since our break-up,” he continued. “And I realized that I love you and that I could never be able to lose you, Jill…”What the hell?“So… c-can you give me a chance-?”Before he could even finish his sentence, my palm had already flown to his cheek. I hyperventilated after doing that. My tears stung my eyes when he l

“What talk did you do with Cielo that took you so long? I was waiting for you for thirty minutes until I have finished my latte,” Mitch ranted when I went back to our table in the coffee shop.I smiled wearily. “I’m sorry,” I said and sat on the chair. “I talked to Cielo for a bit, and then Mr. Montenegro showed up.”“Huh?” Mitch mumbled in confusion and crossed her arms. “And how did your fiancé show up in the coffee shop?”“He was checking on me since the dispatch who was spying on us was still around. It was hired by the chairman to find some dirt to destroy our relationship,” I said boredly, now circling the straw on the cup.“Okay,” Mitch said and squinted her eyes, maybe noticing my exhaustion. “I think you should go home and rest. We can talk about everything next time. I know you’re tired.""Thank you, Mitch.”My best friend helped me find a taxi on the road and I felt like my soul has left me since I opened up to Mr. Montenegro earlier in his car. While the taxi is running on

I kept giving glances towards Mr. Montenegro. He was busy flipping the paper works on his table, and I could guarantee that he might not be noticing my glances I was giving. I am currently taking notes of his appointments using a table, for I am going to assist him to another company where his brother is working. It’s another establishment their family owns. It runs a warehouse for manufacturing products.“Ms. Castro,” he suddenly called me out of nowhere, so I just looked at him constantly without taking my eyes off him. “I want you to go to the financial department and ask for a list of liquidation of the profit the warehouse had from the previous month. It seems like the accountant gave the wrong financial statement to me.”I rose to my feet, nodded, and answered obediently, “Yes, sir,” I said.I dramatically but surely turned around, so that I would catch him give glances at me, but he did not. I breathed out with disappointment, even if I don’t have the valid reason to be disappo
Last Updated : 2023-01-08The Marriage Contract with the Vice Chairman The Devastating Phone Call
Mr. Montenegro brought me to an expensive restaurant. It was very near to the company building of VC Holdings Inc. so that many would know us. It is not even doubt that he is the center of the customers’ attention inside the restaurant. Nothing new to me, though.As expected, we did not talk. He never talks usually, except if the topic is about work. So I just focused on my chicken meat, my eyes were on the utensils and the food, while chewing what I am eating.“Did your ex contact you?”And yes, that was unexpected --- he spoke up. What I did not see coming is him asking about Cielo!I did not show that I was affected by his question and just casually lifted my gaze at him. He was careful in using his utensils and his eyes were repeatedly venturing on the glass of his water and the dish, never on me.“Uhhh,” I started to mumble. &ldquo

I did not have to open the door when I saw a doctor going outside. He looked at me and was attentive to my presence. “Good day, ma’am. Are you a relative of the dead patient?” he asked. I furrowed my eyebrows. “M-Ms. Mitch Hermosa. Is she the d-dead patient?” I stammered asking. The doctor sighed and miserably nodded. He volunteered in opening the door for me. I inhaled sharply when I saw someone who is covered with a white blanket on a hospital bed. I did not say anything anymore to the doctor and just passed by him to approach the shrouded body on the bed. But when I have already arrived in front of it, my feeling went cold and dark. With trembling hands, I slipped my hand on the covers without even breathing. Please, it can’t be you, Mitch… But the buildings of hope I built merely collapsed when I saw her cold and pale face when I opened the blanket. There were fresh cuts on her face and even dry blood on her cheek. Her lips were chapped and her skin seemed so broken out. “O

It was a mistake. I should have not let my anger and sadness take over me when I shouted at Mr. Montenegro. A childish thing. I breathed in and out, now slowly opening the doors of Mr. Montenegro’s office the next days when I decided to attend my job in the company. I peeked through the door’s opening when it made a creak. As usual, I saw my boss reading a paper from his table. It took seconds before he felt that I was looking at him and lifted his head swiftly. Shit! I almost hid from the door, but I know escaping won’t do any good to me. I just sighed and opened the door widely. “G-Good morning, Mr. Montenegro,” I greeted with a squeak when I completely indulged myself in. I played with my fingers and could not stop lowering my head. “Good morning,” he greeted coldly, and I don’t know if he is looking at me or not. “I supposed to know that you can’t go to work when you are still not recovered from your dear friend’s death.” I shut my eyes tightly. “I’m sorry for what happene

The Marriage Contract with the Vice Chairman Day
"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.
