All Chapters of The Broken Billionaire: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Meron silang fifteen minutes break bago magsimula ang kasunod na segment. Si Mariel, Addalyn at Vhong muna ang host habang sya, si Karinna at Billy naman ang magpapahinga sa kani-kanilang dressing room.Hindi katulad dati na kahit abutin sila ng tatlong oras na tuloy-tuloy na taping hindi sya napapagod. Pero ngayon, kahit may interval breaks sila ay parang sobrang ubos na ubos ang lakas nya sa katawan.Iba pala talaga pag hindi ka na sanay sa dating ginagawa mo.He went to the smoking area of his part of the room, at duon sya tahimik na nagsindi ng sigarilyo.Smoking gives him this sense of calm. Na sa bawat hithit nya ay nababawasan ang kaba at takot nya dahil ang nararamdaman lang nya ay ang tapang ng sigarilyo sa sistema nya.One stick after the other, he stopped counting how many times he breathed in the toxic smoke nung lumampas na sya ng thirty.Kumuha ulit sya ng stick mula sa flip-box ng may biglang pumasok sa pinto. Tumagilid sya ng konti para silipin kung sino man iyon, kuma

Karinna froze on the spot but her heart melted, she felt his sincerity and how apologetic he really was. Suddenly she became warm. " Uhm..." Napaubo sya sabay napalunok. "Let's not talk about that anymore. Maybe some other day or time na lang. Alam ko naman na hindi ka pa ready sa ganun.""Bakit hindi na lang ngayon?" Matapang na reklamo ng binata sa kanya. "Kaya ako nandito because I want to talk about this. I want to talk about us.""About us..." Napangisi si Karinna at napatawa sya sa nangyayari. Bakit parang naging baliktad ang mundo at pinapag-laruan sila ng pagkakataon. "Ano naman ang pag-uusapan natin?"Napagaya si Vince sa ngiti ng dalaga ngunit may bahid parin ng hiya sa kanya. "Ano nga ba?" He answered honestly. Saglit nyang hinaplos ang kanyang noo dahil sa bigat ng kanyang nararamdaman. It's as if his heart is about to explode. Maraming salita ang gustong lumabas mula sa kanyang labi, mga bagay na gusto nyang aminin at halungkatin. He is the kind of person na hindi nauubus

Karinna said nothing to Vincent, instead hinawakan nya ng mahigpit ang kamay ng binata, letting her small fingers twine onto his. "Ikaw ang kasama ko ngayon." Her answer was reassuring and she hoped that her smile was enough to make him feel her love. "At ikaw lang ang gusto kong makasama."Hindi inaasahan ni Vincent ang prangka na sagot ng dalaga kaya bigla syang na mula. Ang kaninang nahihiya at nag-aalinlangan nyang kamay na naka-kapit sa dalaga ay kanyang hinigpitan. Inangat nya ang kamay nya hanggang abot na ng kanyang labi ang kamay ng dalaga sabay hinalikan nya ang daliri nito. "Salamat." Malambing nyang bulong dito.As the performance comes to its end, inayos na ng staff ang mga gamit at tinanggal na nila ng mabilisan ang set up ng mga gitara at drums sa stage. Umayos naman sa puwesto sina Karinna at Vincent dahil sila na ang susunod. With their head on the performance hindi na nila napansin ang biglang pagkawala nina David. All except for Addalyn na kanina pa suspicious sa in

Huminga ng malalim si Vincent para magtimpi at pigilan ang nararamdaman nyang matinding galit para sa kaibigan. And he thinks, no one would truly understand him. For they only know life, and not how to care for it. "Tumahimik ka." He lets out short and fair warning habang dinuduro-duro ang kaibigan. But she only gave him a small and pitiful smile."Alam mo, nakakaawa ka." Sabi ni Addalyn sa binata bago nya ito unti-unting talikuran. "The woman who sacrificed almost everything for you is in that room, and she needs you badly. Mahal na mahal ka nya, sobrang mahal. To the point that it is too much." Again she shook her head in dismay with a stern smile playing on her lips. "I witnessed everything, kung anong paghihirap yung naranasan niya nung piliin nyang alagaan ang isang katulad mo, nung piliin nyang bumawi sa inakala nyang kasalanan nya sayo. Hindi mo lang nakita, Vincent..." Addalyn was on the verge of tears yet she tried her best to remain calm and strong. "...hindi mo nakita kung

As Karinna reads through the paper, she realized one thing. It's an annulment paper and it was filed one and a half year ago, earlier than when they send their processing request four months ago. They planned this all along. And it's such a bitter pill to swallow. She had been such a fool to trust David. And so she thought it won't come to this end."Once you sign this with your name and signature, tapos na ang lahat sa inyo. Fifty percent of your assets will be given to David, as well as your combined bank accounts and savings accounts. Hindi ko na naman kailangang ipaliwanag, diba? Hindi ka naman Bobo, diba?" Zarah's intention oozed out from her system, and Karinna never met anyone so evil. She moaned in pain as Zarah's grip on her bruised shoulder tightened, and even as she tried to wiggle her way out of their grasp, it's as if her strength had been drained."Sign it." Muling utos ni Zarah dito. But it seemed like Karinna wouldn't budge. Again and again, she points her gun at the l
