Chapter 30: Confrontation

Unti-unting nawala ang emosyon sa mukha ni Audrey. "Unfortunately," she replied in an indifferent tone. Pumunta sa harap ng salamin si Audrey at marahan na nagpunas ng tissue sa labi para i-retouch ang kaniyang lipstick. Si Gayle ay muling nagsalita, halatang ayaw matapos agad ang usapan nila. "I am with Lawrence and earlier, we thought that we were just seeing things... Nakita ka namin kasama si Mr. Vasquez na pumasok dito sa Royale Hotel. When did you become close with him, Miss Audrey?" she asked in her usual sweet voice. Marahan nitong hinawi ang buhok na umaabot ang dulo sa kaniyang collarbone. Gayle moves really gently and gracefully, looking harmless and virtuous as ever. Audrey took her time to answer. She threw the tissue into the trash can before speaking. "Miss Nuñez, don't ask me about anything in my life... We aren't close." Unting-unti na nawala ang ngiti sa labi ni Gayle. She composed herself and tried to smile again. She even took a deep breath, wi

Chapter 31: Joker

Walang pakialam si Audrey kay Gayle at never niyang na-imagine na magkakaroon sila nh confrontation. But her patience was tested today in the comfort by that pretentious woman. Iritado siya nang maalala ang nangyari. Talagang kayang-kaya gamitin nito ang inosente niyang hitsura. She was not in a good mood anymore. Minabuti niyang hindi muna bumalik sa private dining room agad. She planned to go to the front desk to pay their bill first. Kinausap siya sandali ng naroon tungkol sa meal computation. She slowly calmed down and decided that after that, she will be back to Regan and Reina to continue their meal. After swiping her card, she turned around. Napahinto siya sa paghakbang nang makita kung sino ang naroon sa may likod niya. It was the heroine of the big drama and her fiancé who happened to be Audrey's ex-husband. Halos mapairap siya sa kamalasan niya. Originally, she wanted to pretend that she didn't see them. Lalampasan na sana niya ang mga ito nang biglang magsalita si L

Chapter 32: Satisfied

Agad napalingon ang dalawa sa bagong dating. Pareho silang nabigla na sa baritonong boses na sumingit sa pag-uusap nila. Lawrence was even more stunned for a while, he looked really surprised when he realized who it was. "I didn't expect that Mr. Vasquez would have the habit of eavesdropping on someone else's conversation," aniya sa pilit na pinatapang na boses. He tried his best to calm himself and gather his composure. Regan Amadeus stood beside Audrey, his demeanor was calm and really manly. He was oozing with confidence. "How can you eavesdrop in public?" he simply stated as if it was an answer to a stupid accusation. Sumulyap siya kay Lawrence kapagkuwan ay namulsa. "Besides, you're only part of Serenity's past, right, Mr. Villafuente? Don't you think you are meddling in her life too much?" kalmado niyang tanong sa lalake.Serenity? Did he really call Audrey, Serenity?Lalong hindi naging maganda ang ekspresyon sa mukha ni Lawrence sa narinig mula sa lalake. He knew that Regan

Chapter 33: Man in the Photo

Nag-drive na pauwi si Lawrence dala si Gayle since sakanila na ito nagi-stay. He was in a lighter mood now after his conversation with Gayle. Pagpasok pa lang nila sa mansion ng mga Villafuente, excited siyang sinalubong ng kapatid niya na si Leandra. Patalon-talon pa itong lumapit sa kaniya. "Look, Kuya! Guess what I saw today!" she happily said. Halos isubsob niya sa mukha ng Kuya Lawrence niya ang screen ng kaniyang phone. "That bîtch! Look here! This is Audrey and based on this picture, she definitely cheated on you when you were still her husband!" She sounded so proud of her discovery, thinking it is something that will make him glad. Napatitig si Lawrence sa screen ng phone. Picture iyon ni Audrey kung saan nasa may labas ng luxury car ni Regan silang dalawa. Sa anggulo ng picture na 'yon ay tila may namamagitan talaga sa dalawa. He realized that it was captured just earlier based on their clothes. The dissatisfaction in his heart rose again. Ang mas magaan niyang aura na

Chapter 34: In Charge

Lawrence went upstairs alone. He can't silence his mind. Hindi niya ito makontrol. The scene of Audrey and Regan leaving together kept on flashing in his mind. He frowned and gritted his teeth. Hindi niya na napigilan na bumunot ng sigarilyo at sindihan iyon. He immediately put it in between his lips and puffed a smoke. Did Audrey really betray him while they were still married? Hindi siya mapalagay sa katanungan na 'yon sa isip niya. Thinking of Audrey's indifference and the fact that she voluntarily signed the divorce agreement, Lawrence felt that it's not impossible. May tsansa na nag-cheat si Audrey habang kasal pa sila. He took a deep puff of cigarette once again then picked up his phone. He looked for the number he rarely dialed.Driven by his intense curiosity and suspicion, he felt the need and urge to talk to Audrey. Kailangan malaman niya ang lahat. He needs answers directly from her! He called her number but he was answered by the female operator voice. "Sorry, the num

Chapter 35: Registration

Matapos i-post ang promotional posters no'ng hapon, dumagsa pa lalo ang mga nag-sign up para sumali sa competition. Masaya si Audrey na marami ang may interest sumali although it means that it would also take a lot of work and energy. But it's fine, it makes her happy. Mas naging busy si Audrey kasama ang ibang estudyante na tumutulong sa kaniya sa paglipas ng mga oras kaya hindi na niya inasahan pa na may eepal na naman sa registration booth nila para lang guluhin siya. Before Leandra found them, may nabasa ito na poster sa bulletin board. Binasa ni Leandra ang nasa poster. "Psychological knowledge competition and this year, it was actually handed over to Audrey aka bîtch Atienza?" Leandra stared at the highlighted words 'Miss Audrey Atienza' on the poster, her eyes felt like it was burning. Did she read it right?Bakit pagkakatiwalaan ito ng malaking event ng university nila? Was she really that great?Ang kasama-sama nitong alipores ay tumango sa kaniya habang nakasimangot. "That

Chapter 36: Plan

Leandra was actually unmoved by the ridicule in Reina's words. Tila mas lumaki pa ang ngiti nito sa kaniya. She was looking at her with unnatural kindness in her eyes. "Why are we being like this, Miss Reina? After all, our families have a few business deals. I don't think you should protect Audrey. Instead, we should be friends." Reina was simply speechless for a moment. Halos kilabutan siya sa mga sinasabi sa kaniya ni Leandra. Nanindig ang mga balahibo niya. Not just her, kahit ang dalawang alipores nito ay hindi makapaniwala sa nangyari, ang mga ekspresyon animo'y nakakita ng multo. Reina shuddered. "If you don't leave us quickly, don't blame me kapag pinataboy kita. You're being cringey!" Iritadong sinabi niya sa babae. Leandra felt frustrated but she still managed not to show it on her face. She remained smiling at Reina and stood up as if nothing happened and she heard nothing from her. "Since you are busy, I won't bother you anymore, Miss Reina. No worries, we have a lot

Chapter 37: Obsessed

Ang alipores niya ay nanlalaki ang mga mata, puno iyon ng inggit at paghanga. And her job is to flatter Leandra. "Oh my gosh, Leandra! Ang bait naman ng kuya mo, he must be fond of you. I heard that the CEO of companies are very busy and yet, he is here to pick you up!" Tila punong-puno ng paghanga at inggit ang boses niya. Leandra's vanity and narcissistic side was immediately validated by her follower. Kaya lalo naman lumabas ang yabang niya. She smirked and crossed her arms, looking arrogant and proud. "Right? Of course he's fond of me. Spoiled nga niya ako, I can control him because he loves me the most!" His brother loves him but not to the extent that he spoils her. And she could not definitely control her brother! Disciplinarian type nga ito kaysa sa Mommy nila. But she won't tell that, of course. "Gosh, I really envy you, Leandra. Nasa sayo na ang lahat. You're so pretty, you have a good family background, and your brother really loves you! And gosh, I have never tried

Chapter 38: Sadness

Lawrence's eyes darkened. Umigting ang panga niya. The corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously hearing the words she said. Ibang-iba na si Audrey ngayon. The woman in front of him had changed so much that she dared to speak to him in such a tone. It was cold and indifferent. Bagay na hindi niya kinasanayan. Audrey was really gentle and warm to him when they were still married. Why can't he see that woman anymore?Nang hindi agad makakibo si Lawrence ay halos mapailing si Audrey. Wala na siyang interest na manatiling konektado dito. Ayaw niya na makausap ang lalake. She was ready to leave. Unexpectedly, nang humakbang siya para umalis na ay bigla nitong hinila ang kamay niya. His big hand held her wrist. Lawrence is known for being impatient, lalo na ngayon. Hinila niya pabalik si Audrey, bahagyang may pwersa dala na rin ng inis niya. The force on his hold, left finger marks on her fair skin in an instant. "What—"Audrey pushed his hand away from her wrist. Hinawakan niya a

Chapter 39: Bar

Hindi malayo ang apartment na tinitirahan niya mula sa university kaya nga nilalakad lang niya iyon but for the first time, Audrey felt a little tired and drained. Pagdating sa apartment niya, wala rin siyang gana magluto for her dinner. Wala rin siyang gana kumain. To cool herself, kumuha siya ng can ng beer sa refrigerator niya saka pabagsak na umupo sa sofa. She felt a little irritated and she could not tell why. Sigurado siya sa sarili niya na hindi na mahal si Lawrence. Kahit kaunting pagkagusto rito ay wala na. He's nothing to her pero sa mga ginagawa nito for the past days, she's beginning to hate him. Simula nang mag divorce sila, palagi ng nagpapakita ang lalake sa kaniya. Hindi niya naman kailangan ang presensya nito. She really wants a peaceful life for herself, away from him and his family. Ngunit ang mga ito yata ang lumalapit sa kaniya, pati na rin si Lawrence. Kaya iritado talaga siya pati sa sarili niya. Nakakairita dahil bulag yata talaga siya noon para mainlove s
