THE RETURN OF ALESSANDRA

chapter 5: Mrs. knight takes Over

Alas-sais ng umaga.

Nagising si Alessandra sa penthouse ni Tyron. Wala siyang suot kundi white shirt lang ni Tyron - ang laki, hanggang hita niya lang.

"Good morning, Mrs. Knight," boses ni Tyron mula sa balcony. Naka-coffee, topless, ang hot.

Namula si Alessandra. Naalala niya ang nangyari kagabi. "Tyron! Bakit shirt mo lang suot ko?!"

"Because you ripped your red gown last night, love," ngisi ni Tyron. "You were... wild."

"TYRON KNIGHT!"

Tumawa si Tyron at lumapit. May dala siyang maliit na black velvet box.

"For you."

Binuksan ni Alessandra. Isang 10-carat pink diamond ring. At sa tabi, isang folder.

"Ano to?"

"Deed," sabi ni Tyron. "Binili ko na Dela Rosa Corporation. The company your father took from your mom. It's yours now, Mrs. Knight. 100%."

Natulala si Alessandra. "What? Yung company ni Mama? Yung kinuha ni Papa at binigay kay Sophia?"

"Yes," sabi ni Tyron. "And today, you will go there as the new owner. As Mrs. Alessandra Knight."

*8:00 AM - DELA ROSA CORP BUILDING*

Nagkagulo ang buong building nang pumasok si Alessandra. Suot ang black power suit, 8-inch heels, at kasama si Tyron Knight.

Nasa lobby si Sophia at si Ethan. Nagmi-meeting.

"Alessandra? Anong ginagawa mo dito? Security!" sigaw ni Sophia.

Ngumiti si Alessandra at inilapag ang folder sa table.

"From today onwards, this company is no longer Dela Rosa. It's KNIGHT. And I'm your new CEO."

"What?!" sabay na sigaw nina Ethan at Sophia.

Tumingin si Alessandra kay Ethan. Yung lalaking nang-iwan sa kanya sa altar.

"Ethan Dela Cruz, you are fired," malamig na sabi ni Alessandra. "And Sophia Dela Rosa, you too."

"YOU CAN'T DO THAT! PAPA ANG MAY-ARI NITO!" iyak ni Sophia.

"Oh, I can," sabi ni Tyron sa likod ni Alessandra, inakbayan siya. "Because my wife can do whatever she wants."

At sa harap ng lahat ng empleyado, hinalikan ni Tyron si Alessandra sa labi.

"This is Mrs. Knight. Your new boss. Respect her."
