All Chapters of That First Night With Mr. CEO : Chapter 221 - Chapter 230

"Charlie, are you even listening?" anang Grandma Liza ni Charlie sa kanya. Mabilis siyang nag-angat ng tingin sa kanyang lola na noon ay kasama niyang nag-aagahan sa family house nila sa Tagaytay. That's where she spent her weekend. She wanted to be away from the city for a while. Away from all her cares. Away from Gael. It was a beautiful Sunday morning. But she doesn't feel beautiful at all. She looks like shit and still feels conflicted. Why wouldn't she? She just learned that her stupid heart still loves Gael. How could she do that? How could her stupid heart do that? Hindi man lang ba siya nadala? Gael is her family's enemy now. Were his threats not enough to make her unlove him? How can she fall for him again-- the man who abandoned her for money? The cause of all her heartaches? She released a slow breath and collected her thoughts. "Sorry, Grandma. I was thinking about... What's your question again?" aniya. Her Grandma studied her face for a while and reached fo

Gael was staring blankly at the document in front of him. He had been staring at it for the last hour and yet he doesn’t seem to comprehend any single word written on it. The past three days had been the same. Pumapasok siya sa Crown Bank subalit lumilipad ang isip niya. He cannot think straight nor function well when his mind was preoccupied by Charlize. His thoughts are always for her, most from the night he insulted her. He knew he shouldn’t have said what he said. But he was angry when he served him their divorce papers. Kung bakit, hindi niya alam. For the past five years of his life he lived and breathed with only one thing in his mind, ang pabagsakin ang mga Sandejas dahil sa kasalanan ng mga ito sa kanya. He still wanted that. His mind was still set on bringing justice to what happened to his T’yo Berting—to him. But his heart, his damn heart doesn’t seem to agree with his mind anymore. Why, the fcking thing won’t stop beating for her! He had never felt that way for Lena

Lena carefully roamed her eyes around the hotel suite Gael had booked for her. The place was fine, luxurious if she might add. But that did not ease the anger she's feeling right now. She went straight to his new office to surprise him but he didn't seem surprised at all! Gael was indifferent to her flirtatious advances. He didn't even responded to her kiss-- he just gently pushed her back and said that he had a lot of things to finish for the day. That he will just see her in the hotel suite. That's a first in the five years that he had known Gael. She was used to Gael following her wherever she goes-- needing her close to him from time to time. He was quite possesive of her but it does not bother her. She likes it in fact. It was just how they had planned. Gael's fondness of her for the past years had made things easier for her. It meant she was doing a great job of keeping him entertained-- distracted, easily manipulated. But now, the Gael she had known and left in Manil

Charlie nervously walked over at the makeshift stage where all the new members of the business circle will be inducted... by her.Out of all people, siya pa talaga ang napili nilang tawagin para mag-induct sa mga bagong members ng grupo! There are more well-deserved people in the crowd to do that. Why does it has to be her?!She took in a sharp breath and collected herself.Get this done and over with then you can get the hell of here, she convinced herself.Uncle Nate, the son of Mrs. Cobarrubias, took her hand and helped her climbed up the makeshift stage. Once there, she quickly get done with the task nang hindi siya tumitingin sa mga bagong miyembro ng grupo.Kaya lang nang magsimulang kamayan ng mga officers ang mga new members, she was forced to do it too.That’s when she saw Gael. He was wearing a blue suit that perfectly accentuates his well-built frame. He wore his dirty blonde hair long like how he used to since she met him again. And his aura-- authoritative, proud… dangero

"What do you want to eat?" tanong ni Gael kay Charlie. Sa harap nila ay ang hilera ng mga tray ng ulam na isinisilbi ng isang roadside eatery kung saan sila kasalukuyang naroon. It was already lunchtime and they were just a few towns away from San Gabriel. Maaga pa lang nang magsabi siya sa mga katulong nila sa mansyon na lalabas siya at pupunta sa bahay nina Jasmine at Gray. Mahigpit niyang ibinilin sa mga katulong na h'wag ipagsasabi sa kahit kanino kung saan siya magpupunta lalo na kina Axel at Jacob. Subalit imbes na sa bahay ng kaibigan dumiretso, nagpunta siya sa dati nilang tagpuan ni Gael. That's where they've decided to meet up. He was already there when she arrived wearing just his casual clothes-- a sport shirt, jeans and rubber shoes. He was laid-back, relaxed-- like the guy she used to know. A perfect for the memory of him she will get to keep after today. "I think I'll just go with that fried boneless bangus and a little bit of that red egg with tomatoes. I haven't
