Sweet Revenge Chapter 9: The Emergency Board Meeting
My intertwined fingers fidgeted while waiting for everyone in the conference room. I ordered George to arrange an emergency board meeting in the afternoon. After speaking with my dad's former lawyer, I made a decision to tell everyone about the real situation of the company. Much to George's disapproval, he had no choice but to follow my league."Are you sure about this, Amy Leah? You see it's not just Atty. Smith's life who's gonna be in danger here but especially YOU!" I heard a tone of dismay from George who was sitting next to me."Atty. Smith will be safe, George. Don't worry. He will be well taken care of. And for the company, the staff has all the right to know!" I understood his concern but I had no right to give the employees false hope. De La Frontera Group was no longer ours, that's the truth!"They're gonna skin you alive. I'm sure of that!" George sighed deeply. He took his phone from his pocket and called someone. "Iñigo, prepare Amy Leah's car. Make sure it's not tapped
Sweet Revenge Chapter 10: The President of Zaborowski Prime
We all halted and stared at the gorgeous woman in business attire. A simple knee-length checkered pencil-cut skirt fit with a checkered coat which length approached her knees. Her blouse was a stretchable black shirt that she tucked inside her skirt.Her long wavy blonde hair draped around her shoulders and at her sexy back. Her aura was in the middle of both sophisticated and tyrannical. Perfect enough to muzzle these barking dogs down.Behind her was a young good looking man who I guess could be her subordinate. Bodyguard perhaps. Speaking of bodyguards, I saw Franco staring straight at me, the corner of his lips curling up forming an irking smirk."Good afternoon, gentlemen!" her voice was elegant, I, myself, couldn't help but gawk at her. "Mrs. Bailey, Mr. Bonifacio, please go back to your seats. We have to finish this discussion with closure!""Hrmm! Excuse me, Miss. This meeting is exclusively for the De La Frontera Group employees. I think you entered the wrong building!" Cain
Sweet Revenge Chapter 11: Growing Love
The moment I set my eyes on her, flashbacks of how those painful but sweet memories of our past lingered in my mind, scratching the wounds, which I thought were healed, deeper. My chest tightened as my saunters became heavy. I planned it all along. These were all part of my five years scheme. These were all part of my revenge. To make her suffer...However, why seeing her again in person made my body tremble like a team of horses galloping inside my chest near my heart. I shut my yearning orbs trying to calm myself down and paint those bitter memories of the past. If that would make me feel stronger in front of her, then I would always scrub my thoughts with those hurtful moments that we shared.Eight years ago...Winter!"Desmond, what's keeping you too long in your room?" my mom asked, a bit crabby.I had been in my room for almost two hours choosing which clothes were I going to wear for a casual working day. Different colors of shirts, shirts with collars, and jackets messily spre
Sweet Revenge Chapter 12: Once In A Lifetime Chance
"Hello, señorita Amy Leah!" I shyly waved my hand for a simple hello gaining the attention of the woman on her left, aristocratic look with an angled eyebrow good enough to squeeze me like a bugging bug.Her long slender legs crossed in a dignified manner. Dressed in black sleeves one-piece hugging her curves perfectly. Her hair was tied in a bun with some strands hanging on her ears where dangling diamond earrings almost blinded my sight. The illumination from the Imperial chandelier on the gorgeous paneled ceiling sparked through the crystals striking the brilliance of the jewel...a symbol of her titled Majesty."Samuel, Victor!" Don Miguel greeted us. He stood up with dominance and grace followed by the woman and Amy Leah."Good morning, Señor Miguel, Señora Divina, Señorita Amy Leah!" my elders greeted them with a slight bow and I followed right away."Desmond, how are you feeling, boy? Is your leg okay, now?!"Odd! I was hit by him last October and that was a couple of months ago
Sweet Revenge Chapter 13: Moving to Corinthian
Much to my parents' hesitation, they were forced to agree with my decision. After the new year, I had to move to Corinthian and begin my new life. My father believed that the wealthy's kindness had an accompanying favor in return. A favor we might hadn't able to bestow. Thus, my mother, as much as possible, would like to tie me to my bed just to keep me from leaving. The struggle was beyond words to describe.At our dining table, there were always waves of laughter and banters every time we had our meal but this evening, it was awkwardly different. My father focused on his food with a stern look and my mother hurried her plate like she was in a food competition. I couldn't help but feel anxiety, the tension between us was screaming loud at this deafening eerie silence."Mom, you chew the meat well. If not you might get choked!" I tried to take her plate but she glared at me right away."The way I chew my meal isn't of your concern anymore, Desmond!" she grumbled while the marinated por
Sweet Revenge Chapter 14: Missing Each Other
"Desmond! You're here!" she clamored in gladness. "Samuel, good afternoon. Please, come in. Dad's at the company now but Iñigo will help you today!" she stepped aside and let us in first before she closed the door.Uncle Samuel was right. How elegant the exterior was nothing compared to how magnificent the interior was. Each piece of stuff had a value as expensive as gold. I didn't even realize when Amy Leah held my hand. Uncle Samuel followed behind us."Come! I will show you to your room. You will share a room with Iñigo. He's my bodyguard and driver and he will help you with the ways in the mansion!" Amy Leah kept speaking while she led us to a bungalow house behind the mansion."That's the servant quarter. Elsa is our butler. She's very kind like Iñigo. You can ask them anything!"As we stopped by the entrance door. Samuel patted my shoulder. "Desmond, I have to go back now. Take care here!""Uncle, aren't you staying for a while?""No! Señor Miguel tasked me to visit the hacienda
Sweet Revenge Chapter 15: Grow Stronger
Our love grew stronger in time. I was now 21 and she was turning 18 in a few months. Though it was hidden, we managed to see and contact each other almost every day. There was an old oak tree at the back of the mansion facing the lake. That tree became the witness to our deep affection."You know, we can't lie to Mr. Oak if it could just talk!" Amy Leah uttered while staring at how I carved her name with my dagger. I just carved our names together inside a heart. "It's perfect!" she whispered as her fingers touched the rough carvings."It is. And with your statement earlier, what could we lie to Mr. Oak? This tree knows how much I love you and how much you mean to me!" I slid my thumb on her cheek down to her chin gently lifting them so I could nibble her lips."Hmm!" she moaned with my gentle caress. "I agree with you. Des, you've passed the entrance exam at the university where I also study. I can't wait to start this semester with you!" her hands on my chest developed a voltage of
Sweet Revenge Chapter 16: Meeting His Rival
"Desmond, Señora is looking for you. She's in the garden!" Jack casually told me after parking the black van."You went to the market? It's 7 AM!" I asked squinting my eyes at him and the stuff he brought out from the van. "That's full of fresh groceries and spices!" I uttered upon taking a swift glimpse at the items in the big plastic boxes."Yeah, Well, we have a VIP coming!" Jack muttered while carrying the plastic box. "These are just a few. Noemi and I already bought the meat yesterday. We had to go to the market early to buy this fresh seafood and vegetables!" Noemi was his twin sister and also worked as a servant in the mansion. They were in their 20s and both were nice and friendly but I found Noemi stronger in personality than her brother."Jack, hurry! Elsa's gonna prepare five courses of meals for the dinner!" that's her roaring at her brother with her hands on her waist."Gotta go! My tigress sister is calling me now!" he smilingly said making his voice louder on purpose.
