Chasing The Broken CEO #27
“I will call your father to inform them that you are safe. Please don’t do something stupid, Risha. Get some rest,” he said in a lower tone. He went out of my room after that. Still sobbing on my bed, I looked at the closed door he went out from. He’s too cruel! For all I know, he’s going to tell everything to my father so that I would be scolded again once I return to Manila! Oh, my goodness! The next day, I am still in a bad mood and I don’t have the energy to do anything. I don’t even have the appetite to eat my breakfast simply because of two reasons. First, Evan forced me to get up from bed even though I didn’t want to go out and join them. Second, I am sitting at the same table with Ash, the bastard who pointed a gun at my head for fun last night. “Good morning, Mademoiselle!” Ash greeted me with a boyish grin on his lips. “What is good in the morning?” I snorted and rolled my eyes. I picked up the food menu and just looked at the list of food. I don’t give a fuck if I

Bea and I have already finished making two pots when I felt the need to go to the restroom. Auntie let me use the restroom available inside their house. After peeing, I also checked myself in the mirror. I put my hair in a bun and wiped the sweat on my neck and forehead. I re-touched my makeup and then went out again. I was smiling from ear to ear but it faded away the moment I saw Evan and Ash talking to Bea and her mother. Evan’s eyes met mine. My lips formed a thin line. With my forehead creasing, I walked towards them. “What are you guys doing here?” I asked them, irritated. Evan’s eyes bore at me. He looked a bit cranky while Ash, on the other hand, was grinning like a professional devil. “We got bored in the hotel so we went here to annoy you,” said Ash which made me feel more irritated. He’s really getting on my nerves! Does it satisfy him to see me pissed off? Evan immediately turned around to face his evil friend. I knew that he gave him a dagger look. I rolled my

I sighed in relief when we arrived at the top of the hill where the Tayid lighthouse is located. My lips parted when as soon as I saw the beautiful view of the blue sea from where I am standing. A smile escaped my lips as I feel so amazed to see the entire province of Basco, Batanes from here. It’s really fascinating and it makes me feel at home. I gazed at the left part of the view where there are a lot of hills complimenting the beauty of the sea. The ocean below is very calm and the rock formations are adding up to its real beauty. On the right side, there are mountains, trails, and pathways going to the village and up here. I slowly walked towards the lighthouse. The cold and salty wind blew my hair. I ran my fingers through my hair and placed it on my left shoulder. I looked at the tall lighthouse and I can’t help but feel amazed because it is indeed fascinating. I mean... this whole place is! “Should we go inside?” Evan asked me curiously. I looked at him. He’s standing in

“Do you still love your first love... I mean that Irish Esquivel? Or have you moved on already?” I carefully asked him. Darn it! This is it! I’ve been dying to ask him a question related to his first-ever love! This is one of the things that make me so anxious. I know I should not be bothered by it given that we’re only doing this whole thing for business but part of me wants to be sure that he already moved on. It’s sort of difficult to be with someone who still has feelings toward another woman. That would be a headache for sure! “Why do you ask? Have you not figured it out when you did some background check on me?” he said jokingly and then he laughed heartily. Oh, this is new... Evan Zendejas is laughing his heart out in front of me. I bit my lower lip to suppress the smile trying to escape my lips. It feels good to see him laughing like this, though. And I like it when he’s like this, kind of loosened up to everything. “My informant can’t find anything that would confi
Chasing The Broken CEO #1
Nathalie's point of viewIs it all worth it? To do what makes me happy despite the fact that my life is already tied up with someone I haven’t even met... For several times, I had to ask myself about it. I used to dream of having a great life which includes the freedom and career that I will be proud of. I have dreamed of having a life without the need to please anyone, without having the fear to fail. I used to dream of having a normal life wherein people aren’t befriending me just because of my family’s worth. I’ve been dreaming of being someone else. What if I was not born as Risha Nathalie Saavedra? However, I came to realize that it didn’t make any sense at all. My parents have opened my eyes at my young age. They made me aware about my purpose in our business and that is to be a wife of someone whom I barely know. I didn’t mind it at first as my only goal is to please them reason why I wanted to do everything they would say. “I already talked to them and they liked my propo
Chasing The Broken CEO #2
Nathalie’s POV“Mom, I have cleared my schedule for this weekend as per your request.” I informed my mother who is sitting on her swivel chair with a document on her hand. It’s already evening yet she’s still working at home. She has her own office in our house. Well, my dad has his own, too. Hiding my hands at my back, I breathed in heavily and decided to walk near her office table. After a few seconds, she glanced my way and gave me a nod. “That’s great. I talked to Mrs. Zendejas and she agreed to set up a dinner date for you and her son, Evan. I’ll talk to her again and see if we can push that through this weekend.” She replied. I nodded and tried to put a smile on my face. “Do I need to prepare anything for the dinner date, Mom?” I asked her carefully. My mother looked down at the document on her hand again. She breathed deeply. I waited for her response but she ended up shaking her head. “I think you just have to be gorgeous when you meet him, Nathalie. You need to be prim
Chasing The Broken CEO #3
Nathalie’s POVWithout further ado and with all my courage, I walked toward the table where he was seated. He gazed at me coldly. The angelic face he had for a moment was gone. It felt like my heart will come out from my chest because of his ruthless stare. I sat on the available chair in front of him. He smirked at me that sent shivers down my spine. I tried to smile but damn it! My knees felt weak right now! The ruthlessness of his aura is eating me up. “Risha Nathalie...” He mentioned my name formally. Even the sound of his voice appears to be undeniably perfect. The way he uttered my name, it is just very unfamiliar to me. It’s like a soothing melody and I’d love to hear it more often. “Good evening, Mr. Zendejas—”“Please call me Evan.” He uttered huskily. “A—alright, Evan...” I called his name softly. Damn! I am just so shy right now and this is the first time I ever felt this kind of feeling in front of a man! I breathed heavily and smiled a bit. I couldn’t even say a sin
Chasing The Broken CEO #4
Nathalie’s POVDamn it! I was forced to wake up early the next day as my best friend, Chandria, kept calling me on my cellphone. She was too excited to know every details of my dinner date with that man, if that went well and how did I interact with Evan Zendejas. It was just seven o’clock in the morning and seriously, I was curious as to where she got all her energy.“What? Did you drool? I told you that he’s gorgeous and a head turner! Not to add that he’s one of the famous bachelors in the Philippines! I did a background check and found out that he doesn’t have a girlfriend and he couldn’t even move on from his first love, so he’s basically a loner! If I were you, I’d do my best to lure him and make him fall for me!” said Chandria, with an excitement evident in her voice.I rubbed my right eye and yawned. She kept providing a lot of information; however, I was too sleepy that my mind couldn’t catch up. I closed my eyes hoping for another nap and just put my phone on top of my ear e
