All Chapters of Chasing Argo Greensmith (English): Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

PictureI took an early bus to Batangas. My training starts on Monday, and I have one day to prepare for work.The apartment I'll be staying in is just a block away from the restaurant Andra owns. Rent, water, and electricity are covered by their company, but food isn't included. I think she specifically exempted me from the bills because she knows I can't afford to pay.I sighed as I stopped in front of the closed apartment door. I looked at both corridors, which were sparsely populated and seemed indifferent to whoever the newcomer was.Besides, it's not like the building I left where everyone would crane their necks to be nosy when there was a new arrival.Shaking my head, I opened the door and went inside. The apartment is small, just right for one person. There's a small living room that fits a sofa set and a TV stand, and a dining area on the other side. On the left is the kitchen, just big enough to move around. There's a small refrigerator there. Beside it is the bathroom, and

We both turned to the manager, Ms. Punzalan, who was squinting at us. "Ah, nothing, ma'am. Natalia's just waiting for Mr. Falcon's order!" Shiela quickly handed me the order I was waiting for. I immediately went to Mr. Falcon's table. "Here's your order, sir. Enjoy your food." I left a smile for him before turning away. I was busy with other customers, I didn't want to get scolded by our manager on my first day of work, so even though I wanted to assist Mr. Falcon when he stood up, I couldn't because of the workload. "Natalia..." I turned to Shiela as I handed the cashier the payment from some customers. "Mr. Falcon gave you a tip. He said to give it to you," she said, her smile almost reaching her ears. I approached her with a furrowed brow. But my eyes widened at the tip she gave me. Shiela handed me a thousand pesos. "I told you, he's a big tipper." She winked at me before going back to work. I looked for the older man, but I think he had already left the resta

"You're the topic on the other shift. They say you're stealing the old man from the other waitresses so you can get the big tips." I shook my head and smiled at her before closing my locker. "Mr. Falcon seems nice, he even invited me for coffee today." Her eyes widened at me, she also covered her mouth. "Don't make it sound like that, I just see him like a father figure." "Oh, come on! I've heard that before. Don't get me started!" She poked my side, making me furrow my brow. "You're crazy, your mind is dirty!" "Just keep me updated, okay?" I didn't bother to respond to her and left the establishment. I found Mr. Falcon talking to some of his bodyguards in the parking lot. He immediately turned to me when one of them whispered to him. I smiled at him and walked towards him. "Let's go?" One of the bodyguards opened the door of his car. Although I was embarrassed, I bowed my head and got in. The old man went around to the other side of the car and sat next to me. My heart r

I almost collapsed onto the soft bed when I got inside my room, I was too tired to even change clothes. Then, my cell phone rang. I quickly pulled it out of my bag and answered the call. "Natalia, how are you?" Andra's sweet voice greeted me. "I'm fine, I just got home from work," I replied. "I heard there was an event there earlier, and I also heard that you did a great job." My cheeks immediately flushed red. I didn't expect that news to reach her. "It wasn't that great, I just got a few good tips. You know, I used my charm on the customers!" I bragged. "Good to hear that, anyways it's getting late. I just wanted to check on you. Our business partner is coming a bit early tomorrow, we're scheduled to go there tomorrow." I immediately got up, a wide smile on my face. "Really, I'm excited to see you!" I noticed she paused for a moment before answering. "I requested Ms. Punzala to take care of us tomorrow. We plan to stay at the hotel for about a week because we're opening a

I'd been standing in front of my locker for a while, but it felt like my feet weren't even touching the ground. My whole body was numb from the beating I received earlier while facing Argo. No matter how much I tried to ignore what I was feeling, the pain it brought just kept getting deeper. "I think those two are a couple. They went down to the beach together earlier, and take note, they only booked one suite." I let out a sigh after hearing that from my colleagues. They were definitely talking about Argo and Andra. "They seem like a good match, unlike some people out there who pretend to be decent. Turns out they're just gold diggers." I heaved a deep sigh again and closed my locker. I didn't have the energy to argue with their snide remarks. I'd just let them talk until their mouths were tired. I was leaving the restaurant when I noticed Mr. Falcon's bodyguard waiting in the lobby. He approached me when he saw me. "Mr. President wants you in his suite," he told me. I
