Ang misyon lang ni Solenn nung una ay ang akitin ang batang bilyonaryo kaya ito nagtrabaho bilang isang sekretarya sa Walton Corporation. "Anong ibig sabihin nito?" Galit na galit at kunot noo na pagtatanong ng chairman sa harap nila Solenn at Marcus habang dumausdos sa lamesa ang mga stolen shot na mga litrato nilang dalawa na magkasama. "May relasyon kayo? Halos mapatid ang litid ng matanda sa loob ng meeting room na yon. "Mauubusan tayo ng investors sa ginagawa mong kahihiyan?" Hasik pa ng chairman matapos nitong pukpukin ang lamesa na nasa harapan. Nakaramdam ng awa si Solenn sa bilyonaryong boss nya na katabi. Alam nyang wala siyang karapatang maramdaman yon sa lalaki dahil kabahagi siya ng plano at bayad siya para dito. Nakita nyang halos hindi maipinta ang mukha ng binata sa harap ng kanyang lolo. Tumikhim lang si Marcus ng walang kakurap kurap, inayos ang sarili sa pagkakaupo. Itinaas ang ulo mula sa pagkakayuko at hinarap ang chairman. "Solenn!" Buong loob na pagtawag nya sa sekretarya. "Sir?" Tila maamong tupang pagtugon ni Solenn.Walang halos makalabas na boses mula sa kanya. "Ikansel mo lahat ng commitment ko this week," at mataman itong tinitigan ang dalaga sa harap ng matandang lalaki. "Pakakasalan kita, bukas na bukas din." "Ha?" Gulat na gulat na pagtatanong ni Solenn. Nanatili siyang nakatulala sa narinig. Tumayo ng dahan dahan ang binata , naglakad ng mabilis at hinawakan ang door knob ng conference room. "Iuuwi na rin kita sa condo!" Ani ni Marcus bago lumabas ng pinto. Ano daw? Hindi makapaniwala si Soleen sa narinig. Napahawak ang dalaga sa sariling dibdib at nag unahang umagos ang mga luha sa kanyang pisngi na kanina pa nya pilit na pinipigilan. Ano na ang gagawin nya? Gulong gulo siya napahawak sa ulo. Pano na? Pagtatanong pa nya sa sarili.
