"Damn! Don't force me to get mad, Lea! Or I could drag you out to this place and lock you again inside our house!" he said. We almost met each other's eyes. I feel like I want to be happy with what he has to say now. "In our house?" I was blown away by what he said. "When I decide to leave you and out of that place, its not my house anymore!" I said "Really? Your still my wife and you can't even do about it! If I say, you would do it!!" his voice echoed in the hallway. All of the people and employees were looking at us. Damn this! he was making a scene here. Is he out of his mind?? Ts "Correction! I'm no longer your wife!" I emphasized the word 'Wife' "And don't make a scene here Mr. Montecillo. I can make our partnership in our company would be inoperative if you touch even a single hair of me!" I warned him that makes him stop. I just secretly smiled because I could see him blushing with anger in front of me. I also see that his fists are clenched. Ts "Go on, try me Mr. Montecillo!" I challenged him, and he still stood in front of me and looked at me intently. "Well, see you around Ex-husband" I smirked at him and left him dumbfounded and annoyed.
Chapter 1
"Do you get Mr. Zaballa, Mr. Aringo?" I asked, and he placed his folder of documents on my table.
"Yes, Ms. Sandoval. You don't worry about anything because I did everything you ordered," he answered. "Mark will surely be angry when he finds out that we got the investor he was hoping to get," he answered me with a smile.
I just secretly smiled because of what he said. And took the folder from the table to read it.
"Job well done, Mr. Aringo," I answered. I can't help but feel happy because Mark's head is probably burning with anger.
This is just the beginning of my revenge on you and your woman!
I just secretly smiled while looking at the document that proves that we have acquired the SYG corporation.
•••••
Mark's POV
I fixed my tie and prepared myself for some important business meetings that will invest in my company. I check my watch; it's already 2:00 p.m. in the afternoon.
"Sir, your appointment with Mr. Zaballa was canceled today; he already invested in the other company, and he said he would not invest in us anymore," my secretary said in the intercom.
Damn it! I exhaled so deeply just to control my anger.
"Go to my office now!" I yelled at my secretary. Shit!
I sit on the swivel chair just to wait for my secretary to enter my office. How could it happen? Fuck!
After a while, my secretary entered the office. She seems so scared and nervous, like a cat. Because she knows how to make me angry. My jaw tightened as I looked at her nervously.
"Just tell me how it could happen." I madly need him to invest in my company!" I hissed in anger. I can feel her trembling in front of me.
"I don't even know, sir. He called me and told me that he cut off his-"
"I don't need your goddamn explanation! Do you want to get fired? Huh?! Just fulfill your fucking responsibilities! Fuck!" I hissed again. I can see her paleness in front of me. Damn it! How did that happen?
"I'm sorry, sir," she apologized to me. I exhaled so deeply and messed up my hair before facing her again.
"What company? Just tell me what goddamn company he deals with!" my voice almost echoed inside my office.
"Sandoval's Company, sir," she said again. I don't know how many times I got goosebumps when I heard that name. Shit!
"Fuck! Get out of my office. Get out!" I shouted at her again. It's like a scared child rushing out of my office.
When my secretary left, the anger I felt still hadn't subsided. My hand clenched in anger. Damn! I slowly pulled my forehead back while looking at the desk.
I also heard my office door open and close, but it was a sign that someone had entered, so I just ignored it. I also heard the noise of the heels being used, and it was going to where I was!
"What happened here?" I just gasped when I heard my sister's voice. I simply look at her and see that her eyes are roaming inside my office.
"Nothing. Why are you here?" I asked her directly.
"You know why I keep coming back to your company. And-" I motioned with my hand to silence her from speaking. Damn! My head hurts every time she speaks.
"You're not tired of begging me about that? I've made up my mind, Jamie!" I answered her. I'm already causing a lot of problems, and then she's going to give me a headache?
"But, brother, you must find Lea. It's been a year since she disappeared like a bubble. And I'm so worried about her and also about my niece. Aren't you worried?" She answered again. Here we go again with a conversation that I'm still avoiding.
"No." I saw her silence at what I said. "And I don't have a plan either to find her. She didn't disappear; she left voluntarily. That's why I should know how to return!" I hissed
"But brother, you must find her, please. Mommy and daddy are worried," she keeps begging on my front.
"Stop it, Jamie. My decision is final!" I voiced, echoing across the whole office. I can see the sadness on her face.
"I get it. You don't love and care for Lea," she answered before she left my office. When he left, I gently ruffled my hair.
"God damn it!" I hissed in anger while looking at the door.
Leah Point Of view...
"Ma'am, your brother called. And he wants to remind you that you'll assign everything to an important business meeting that will be held on Wednesday afternoon. together with the board member and new business partner," I just nodded at what my secretary said.
I'm not shocked by what my secretary said because last month Reynard told me about the big project they were going to do. because they have a big project to do in Cebu, which is to build a hotel. Their target market is the growth of tourist spots and tourist destinations here in the Philippines. He assigns everything to me. up to the proposal, layout of the hotel, head of construction, and also in charge of everything.
"Okay, thanks." I gently rubbed my forehead. Gah! I already have four days to fix everything about our proposal. "By the way, did we have a new business partner?" I arched my eyebrow at her.
I gently looked at my secretary, who looked slightly at the paper she was holding.
"Yes, ma'am," answered my secretary.
"Who? What company does he own?" was my answer. Damn! Why didn't I even know that?
"SBC Company. Under held by Mr. Mark Samuel Montecillo," I felt weak at what my secretary said. WTF?!
Mark???
"What!? When?" I couldn't help but raise my voice at what I heard. Damn!
How could that happen?
I feel like my head hurts even more from what I heard. Damn! Why didn't I even know that? I feel mixed emotions right now. A mixture of annoyance and anger. I hurriedly grabbed my phone and dialed my brother's number. Every time my brother's phone rings, I get even more annoyed. Pick up the phone!
"The number that you have dialed is not attended or out of reach of the area. Please try a call later." Damn! I don't know how many times I was scolded in anger while my brother's cell phone kept ringing.
"Ugh!" I hissed in irritation and placed my phone on my table.
Joanna didn't hesitate to return to the Philippines to fulfill her closest friend's request. Her mission: to seek revenge on the eldest child of the Villa Franca couple. Upon arriving in San Andres, where Hacienda Villa Franca is located, she stayed at a resort for a few nights. The opportunity seemed fitting as the Villa Franca siblings were present. The challenge was that she didn't actually know which of the two handsome men had hurt her friend Ivy, and Ivy never mentioned a name before disappearing from the world. So, Joanna observed discreetly and felt her way through. Until the mischievous-looking guy called his brother 'Kuya' without moving his lips for a smile. The one with the dangerous look, yet so damn gorgeous and hot: Nash Villa Franca. Joanna executed her plan without hesitation... Will she succeed?
"Just stay by his side until he remembers everything." "No. I have money, Ylona. I don't need your money," I told her coldly. "Why are you so hard to get? We need your help because Hercules is finding you! I'm his fiance but he can't remember anything! why does he have to look for you and not me." Frustration filled her face "That's not my problem anymore. If this is all we're going to talk about, I don't want to. I'm leaving," I told them coldly. I stood up and walked towards the door. I was about to go out when I was stunned by what he said. "You don't want? Then just wait, Talitha. Your money will disappear." I clenched my fist because of what he said. I didn't look at them anymore and walked straight out. I didn't pay attention to the way they looked at me. this is the last step I will take again. I traveled again towards La Consalancion because I had a lot left to do. It's been a few days since we talked to Hercules' family. They didn't bother me again and that's a good thing. I followed him with a smile while he smiled as he waved the toy. Caitlin is not here because she has a job at the resort that I also own. After we broke up, I left and started my own business. "You want more?" I asked him smiling. He quickly nodded. "Lithaaaa!!!" I stopped eating Baby Hero when Leon, my gay friend, came. "Why, Leon?" I asked him in wonder "Mrs. Galvez was at the resort. I'm looking for you and have companions, rich people." I felt my heart beat because of what he said. Rich? Maybe it's not them. I took Baby Hero from the chair and lifted him up. "Alright, I'm going. Come with me." Mrs. Galvez is the owner of the land where my resort is located. I just held my breath before I got on Leon's tricycle. In less than a few minutes we arrived. I see Caitlin who is outside the resort and seems to be waiting for someone. when he saw me, his face seemed to light up and he quickly approached me. "Litha, good and here it is. Here are the parents of your ex-husband," he whispered to her. I bit my lip before I gave him Baby Hero. Take care of him first. I first kissed Hero who was now smiling at me. "Mrs. Galvez," I called the lady. It quickly stood up and looked at me. "You're here, Ms. Fernandez. I want to talk to you about the land that you haven't fully paid yet," she said. I didn't look at them and only at Mrs. Just Galvez. "Can you straight to the point, Mrs. Galvez?" He sighed first. "I'm selling it to the Guevara couple." "We have something to talk about, Mrs. Galvez," I said emphatically. "Business is Business, Ms. Fernandez." got up and left so the three of us were left. My fist clenched because of the anger I would feel. Heartless! "What are you doing this to me? You said I don't want to enter your world! Haven't you put me through enough?" I told them without emotion "Even me, I will never let you into my daughter's world, Talitha. But because my daughter needs you, I will do it for her, even though I hate it." "I hate it too, Ylona. I hate it because I became your mother-in-law," I told her without emotion. he quickly looked at me and glared at me. "You hate me but you're here in front of me now and you're forcing your son to care for me?" "Because he needs you, Talitha! I'll pay doub—" I was startled by a small hand resting on my thigh. I looked down and a smiling child was looking at me while he was presenting something. "M-Mom!" "Hero..."
"Where did that go?" I asked myself again. We're not friends but we're pretty close to each other, and I know he rarely goes out or leaves his office. "Maybe it's just there." I answered myself again and then searched. The whole library is spacious because this school is also large. Some students here are sons and daughters of business tycoons and politics so it's not surprising. I've almost gone around all the bookshelves with their backs to each other but I still don't have mika, so does Arries, it's amazing, especially since I feel different. Girls instinct matches. in the back I could not go so I went there when I heard someone talking, as if whispering. I know Mika and Arries, because I haven't seen anyone else yet and go home, especially since Mika is the only librarian here and I also saw Arries enter here. I was about to turn around to prove that they were when I heard a growl. "Ahh Arries maybe someone will see us here." The woman growled at Arries. My chest throbbed with excitement, "No! This cant be!" My brain objected. Arries was inside and if I'm not mistaken Mika was the woman who moaned earlier. my tears are already dripping, I can't accept, but my mind is trying to focus that it's not them, that other Aries and Mika are inside, but who did I fool? There are no other names for those two here who are our co-teachers, if there is a student it is very impossible. "Ohh shit! I really love you Mika." The man growled. There I stopped sobbing when Aries proved that my boyfriend was doing nonsense right inside the library, he was still the principal but he acted like a pig. I still accept that he hangs out outside but what he does right here inside the school is too much. To hurt myself even more and prove to myself that my boyfriend and my co-staff are doing the miracle, I peeked, I saw that Mika's uniform was almost open as well as Arries who was in a hurry to get down and remove the belt and open the zipper of the dress. I tried not to make any noise, during the time that Arries and I were together I didn't even notice anything strange about him, he was as tender as the first time we were so it was hard to accept for me. We've been together for four years but I think that's not enough when it comes to talking about the flesh. the entire staff as well as the students knew the relationship between the two of us, others were expecting the wedding we were going to but it wasn't. that's why he hasn't processed yet, he already has someone else, I didn't pay attention to that before because maybe he just had a plan but this is the answer. anger took the place of the love I felt here, so I hurriedly took my cell phone to take a picture of them just in case I could use him. To the two of them. It's bad if it's bad but I'm just hurt too. it's a good thing they were so greedy for each other that they didn't even notice my presence, but that's good too. Slowly I took the steps towards the exit door and when I thought I was far away from them I slowly ran out. I don't care if it creates a sound, even if they chase me they won't see me anymore. They are also far from the door so I have a strong feeling that they will not be able to chase me. the gate show is still shedding my tears, it's a good thing the sandal I used is only 2 inches high so it's not hard for me to run. Fortunately, there were no students, staffs, only the guard was there but I didn't pay attention when I heard him greet me. I just wanted to leave, get stuck in that place.
On the first day of school the large gate of Axford University opened early for students required to enter. there are transferees and most are former school students. But all attention was taken away when a young woman got out of an expensive car. "Angel" "Pre am I in heaven yet?" "Shit. She's beautiful!" "The smoothness is damn." "Pres. The student and the transferees are complete, the gate has been closed and they have all been gathered in the auditorium." polite promise of his right hand. He nodded and stood up.

"Then who owns you?" he asked, I could feel and smell his hot and fragrant breath. "I-i-it is yo-you sir," my lips parted as he suddenly came closer to me, bringing our bodies closer together, it's too late for me to close my mouth when I feel his lips on mine. when our lips parted, we both gasped, "then stop making me jealous, because you don't want to know what this friend can do to you."

My boyfriend called, "Baby!" as he jumped out of bed and scrambled to pull his pants off the ground. "Please, I can explain my love." Shutting my eyes, I inhaled deeply and tried not to cry when I realized that my dream of the man not being my boyfriend had been dashed. "What?" I asked, "What do you want to explain?" How did you lie about having a business meeting while you were in bed enjoying yourself with my best friend, even though I told you I was in serious pain, is that it?" I stood there, my heart pounding, and tears streaming down my face...
"I've warned you from the beginning. Don't marry him, but you won't listen." She stood close to me and smiled with concern. "You are not a woman worthy of a man as handsome, rich, smart, and virile as Blaze." My whole body trembled at her words. "Have you no shame?" I asked in a quivering voice. "Take a good look at yourself, Heather." She looked at me in the mirror. "You can't even look at your ugly face. Do you think Blaze can endure a lifetime of looking at that face?"
