After that, I quickly stood up here in my seat and face him. "I've already signed it, so I think we're done now. I'll be back on Monday to catch up, for now I need to leave," I said and I wouldn't have waited for his answer and would have turned around to leave but he spoke again.
"I need to get your address." he said nonchalantly reason I turned my gaze back to him."Why? Is that still necessary?" I asked while frowning."Yes. I'm going to your house tomorrow. Why? You'll find out." He answered, and before I could speak, he had already taken something from inside his coat and handed it to me. I throw a gaze at it and saw that it was a calling card. "That's my personal number, text me what your address is. I'll wait."I just didn't say anything and finally grab it. I didn’t even give him a look and rush outside to end our conversation.When I got on the elevator a"Look. There’s a handsome guy." She whispered to me and even though I’m not extremely interested, I followed her sight to see where she was looking. I immediately saw the person she was referring to. I must agree with her... she was right, the boy was handsome and looked elegant at the same time because of his clothes and shoes that seems expensive. He was wearing a black t-shirt and a light khaki pants. The other boy and girl he was with were also quite handsome and pretty like him… but his visual stands out to my eyes. I was even shocked when our eyes met reason, I quickly avoided his gaze. Damn! Did he caught me staring at him? I hope not!I just secretly swallowed hard when I felt that the handsome boy was standing behind me."Your kill joy as always Wayne." I heard the boy say. I don’t know who he’s referring to because I can’t even move a bit
THE next day, I was startled by a series of knocks I heard outside my door that disturb me from sleeping peacefully. I could not help but feel annoyed because this was the second time that someone was disturbing my sleep. The first one was because of the old woman from yesterday then this happened again today. Don't tell me that was Mrs. Cruz again… because by chance, I might not be able to control myself anymore and I would strangle her with the gold necklaces wrapped around her neck. I feel like I'm deafened by that series of knocks that continuously can be heard in the background, so even though I don’t want to get up yet… I didn't hesitate to get up from where I was lying. If it is just the old woman from yesterday bothering me right now, I will let her taste her own medicine! I swear to God! I didn't even bother to fix myself much and my messy hair from my sleep and then straightly went to the door. Without a word, I opened the door and at once showed who
We’re walking towards the bridge silently because no one dares to speak between us. There aren't too many households around this area so that adds even more to the silence that we both already had. If any houses can be seen here, they are not on the side of the road so it is a bit far. It's normal for me that I don't have many people to see here in my area but when I cross the bridge, there’s a lot of people there and a bit crowded because that is the rich version of this town.The two of us remained silent for about five more minutes until we reached the bridge where Wayne started to break the silence that I don’t even expect. "You know what, I hate this place." He suddenly spoke in a low tone of his voice.Like what I’ve said, I didn't expect him to break the silence between us but I just didn't make it a big deal and then I throw a startled look at him.I saw the side view of his face because he was just looking straight at the bridge we were crossing while
This time, I walked faster than Wayne, and he followed silently behind me. I'm not sure how I'm going to deal with him after what he heard about me earlier, but despite that, I simply decided to act as if nothing had happened and that I was no longer affected. After all, our personal lives are distinct from our business relationships. We will both get benefits here— there will be no cheating or greed. With Wayne's help and support, I can win the case and reclaim our land, while it pains me to admit this to myself but he is no longer at loss to me anymore. It's not a big deal if something happens between the two of us because, as I already stated, we've done that thing before… and I even lost count. After a while, we finally arrived at Pio's house. I saw him cleaning his pick-up car. His position was slightly turned in my direction, so he hadn't seen me yet, so I immediately called his name, which was the reason why he automatically turned in the direction of Wayn
I can't help but throw a gaze at Leigh and to that man outside of this house when they are getting closer and closer while they are talking to each other. I'm not sure what they're discussing right now, but it appears to be serious. I'm now sitting in a bamboo chair inside the house. I also couldn’t look at the whole house because I don’t want to take my eyes off Leigh and to that man. As I already stated, their talk appeared serious since I could see the man's expression while Leigh turned her back on me, obscuring her face so I couldn't see her expression."Here son, get some juice first." I was a little surprised when the old man suddenly appeared in front of me. It was only then that I lost sight of Leigh and then immediately turned my attention to the old man.As he brought me the glass of orange juice, I just replied, "Thank you."I accepted it and then simply placed the glass on the small table in front of me... after all, I wasn't thirsty. I w
I was driving quietly while Leigh was just staring out the window of my car. It's almost 11 AM and it's getting closer to 12 noon. We are currently on our way to Quezon City and according to my calculations, we will arrive at exactly 1 PM. I don't know if I should be the first to break the silence between the two of us but I eventually decided to speak."Are you hungry? I can pull over if you are," I responded flatly, my gaze fixed on the road; a few moments later, I felt her move a little from where she was sitting where I was sure that she was looking at me right now.“Uhmm. J-just a little," she replied hesitantly."Okay" I calmly said, "I'll just pull over later when I see a restaurant." She remained silent.It didn't take long for us to pass a restaurant so like what I have stated, I stopped the car for us to eat inside. I was about to take off my seat belt when my phone rang.I saw that Leigh was also stunned when my phon
We arrived at my house at exactly 1:30 PM. It's a bit of traffic when we entered Manila that's why we arrived late rather than I expected. We were still in my car as I parked in the garage when I noticed her looking out the window. It's like… she's having a star gazing at the moment.I stopped my car and I'm the first one to unbuckle my seat belt. I saw out of the corner of my eyes that she immediately followed by removing her seat belt and then I went out. "Follow me," I stated flatly and then I just passed her and walked straight into my house. I felt that she followed behind me so I don’t bother to look back until we finally entered. When I'm about to speak, I can't help but feel stunned when I saw someone sitting in my living area and eating a snack. He also became aware of my presence so he automatically stopped eating the food he was holding and then his eyes widened. I can't help but frown at him. It's Alexander Fraz, one of my friends who own Fra
I just sat down in myoffice and grabbed the white folder. I began reading the articles because they were related to the case I was currently working on when my phone rang. I quickly reached for my phone that was just sitting on my table and then looked at the caller ID. I can't help but frown a little when I saw Zeid's name on the screen. He's Zeidhon Callycx Imperial, one of my closest friends… we have the same attitude and principles in life that's why among our other friends, we get along together. Oh, I forgot… Caerus too.I didn't give any thought to why he called me today and just simply answered his phone call.“Hello. What do you need? ” I inquired quickly, my gaze still fixed on the item I was holding.[I don't need anything in particular…] he replied in a disgusting tone when he spoke. [They just use me and my number to call you… because they know that when I call you, you
