Zanniyah's POV "Maam na sa labas na po si Mrs. Gutierrez." Pahayag Ni Yza. "Who's with her?" Tanong ko habang may tinitipa sa aking laptop. "Rica is assisting her ma'am." Sagot nito na aking ikinatango. "Pls. Tell her I'm just going to finish this." Pahayag ko. "Noted ma'am" pahayag nito at lumabas. Ilang sandali Ang nakalipas at natapos ko din Ang aking ginagawa. I closed my laptop and while I'm fixing myself biglang bumukas Ang pinto at iniluwa si Yza na parang nagmamadali. "What's wrong, Yza? How's Mrs. Gutierrez?" Tanong ko. "Eh, ma'am. May dalawang kalalakihan po sa labas hinahanap kayo." Pahayag nito na kumuha sa atensyon ko. "Are you sure?" Tanong ko. "Opo, ma'am." Sagot Niya. "Pls. bring that 5 boxes to Mrs. Gutierrez." Pahayag ko. At lumabas. Naabutan ko sa labas ang aking mga tauhan na busy sa pag-aasikaso sa mga customer. "Ma'am, may naghahanap Po sa inyo sa labas." Bungad sa akin Ni Kenny. Lumabas ako at Doon ko naabutan Ang dalawang lalaki na nakasuot Ng itim na shirt with leather jacket, black jeans, at black shoes habang may tinitingnan sa hawak nilang tablet. I look around and I'm right. Marami silang naagaw na atensyon especially women. One of them notices me and he looks again at his tablet before telling it to his comrade. "Good morning." Bungad ko sa kanila Ng malapit ako. "Are you Ms. Zalliyah Rios?" Tanong Ng Isa sa kanila. "Yes. May I know who you are? Why do you want to see me?" Tanong ko sa kanila. "You need to go with us, miss. Our boss wants to talk with you." Sabi Ng isa. "Who is your boss?" Seryoso Kong tanong. "We can't tell you." Sabi Ng isa. "Then I won't go with you." Seryoso Kong pahayag. "But it's an urgent miss." Pahayag Ng lalaki na ikinatingin ko sa kanya. "Urgent?" I whispered and suddenly I remembered that Lian guy. "Take me to him," I said and the guy open the black limousine's door for me before he suit himself to the driver's seat. While the other one goes to the driver's side. Nakita Kong nagbubulungan Ang Iba sa labas. I get my phone in the pocket of my corporate beige jacket and call Yza. "Yza, pls. Tell Mrs. Gutierrez sorry for me. I have urgent errands to do." I said. "Sige ma'am. Ako na Po Ang bahala na kumausap." Sagot nito at binaba ko Ang tawag. Tahimik Ang buong byahe namin. Napakunot noon ako ng huminto kami sa hindi pamilyar na gusali. "Where is this? Why we're here?" I ask. Hindi nila ako pinakinggan at lumabas sila sa kotse. The Same guy earlier. He opens the door for me. Tumingin ako sa paligid. Kunot noo ako Ng sa aking pagtingala I see a very familiar logo and beside it there's a name. Montefalco's Restaurant. At sa ilalim nito ay may nakasulat na main building. "Pls. Follow Cedric maam." Pahayag Ng lalaki at itinuro Ang Isa niyang kasama na nakamasid sa akin. Napakuyom ako at matalim silang tiningnan. "Why the hell I am here?" "You won't know the answer until you won't enter the building and talk to the master." Sagot Ng Cedric. "Bring me to that brute." Galit na Sabi ko. Hindi ko maintindihan Ang aking nararamdaman ngayon. Akala ko Kasi si Lian ang gustong kumausap sa akin. Hindi ko inaasahan na Ang lalaking aroganteng pala iyon. Pinagitnaan ako Ng dalawa Ng pumasok kami. May mga lumingon sa amin pero hindi ko na Ito pinagtuunan Ng pansin. Pumasok kami sa elevator papunta ng top floor. Bumungad sa akin Ang magarang opisina at isang babae na busy sa kanyang ginagawa sa computer. "Ms. Ana." Pagtawag pansin Ng Isa sa babae. "Mabuti at nandito na kayo Troy, Cedric." Pahayag Ng babae. "Good morning Miss." Bati nito sa akin. "Ako na Ang bahala sa kanya." Dagdag nito sa dalawa na ikinatango Naman nila at pumasok ulit Ng elevator. "Pls. Follow me ma'am." Ngiting pahayag nito at lumakad papuntang glass door. She opened it. "Sir, Miss. Rios is already here." Pahayag niya. I saw him stop what he was doing and seriously look at our direction. I can't get my sight off from him when our eyes meet. I look at his whole appearance. I can't stop myself from admiring seeing how hot he is. He is wearing eyeglasses, has messy hair, kissable red lips, a pointed nose, and a prominent jaw with stables in it, and his necktie is not properly fixed. "Damn, Zanniyah. You're not here to admire that beast." Pagalit Kong Sabi sa aking sarili. "You can leave us, Ana." He said in his deep voice while didn't take his eyes off me. "Ma'am pasok na ho kayo." Untag sa akin ng sekretarya nito na akin namang biglang naalala Kung bakit ako nandito. Pumasok ako Ng tahimik at Ng sumara Ang pinto galit ko siyang tiningan. "What's this drama, Montefalco?" Galit kong Sabi. He rest his back on the backrest and look at me relaxing which made my blood boil. "The f**k is your problem, asshole?" Tanong ko na mas Lalo ikinaaliw Niya sa akin. "Are you deaf or what? Why did you order your men to get me in my place." I madly ask and slam my hands to his table and looking directly into his eyes. "And when did you learn to cuss, lady?" He asks me seriously at nilapit Ang kanyang mukha sa akin. I sarcastically laugh and get my face away from him. "Seriously? Pinakuha mo Lang ako Doon sa opisina ko para bw*sitin? Where's the urgent talk you're telling with to your men?" "You change a lot, Zalliyah." Pahayag nito. "If you summoned me here for this nonsense I'm better to go," I said and turn my back to him. "Grandma needs you." Pahayag nito Ng seryoso na ikinabaling ko. Tumayo siya at umalis sa kanyang kinaupuan at pumunta sa harap Ng kanyang table at umupo dito. "I'm wondering if sinadya mo ba talagang magkita kayo or it's just coincidence. Tell me woman Ano Ang sadya mo sa ospital kahapon?" He dangerously asks. Nawala na Ang lalaking kanina na mapaglaro sa harap ko. "As I remember I don't have any obligation to report my activities to you," I said And look at him coldly. "Is this your way to go near me, again? To make me notice you? Are you using my grandma for whatever plan you have for me?" He asks na ikinalaglag Ng panga ko. "Eh, Ang kapal Naman pala Ng mukha mo. Bakit? Sino ka ba sa tingin mo?" Galit kong tanong. I saw emotions pass through his eyes. "Just make sure. Because once I found out that you intentionally met grandmam yesterday and used her for your whatever plans I won't hesitate to shoot you." Pahayag nito. "I don't care who you are Zalliyah..... Grandma's health is important to us. We'll give her what she wants. You'll be replacing Jessy. You need to assist her." Dagdag nito. "Grandma has heart failure so don't dare to make the wrong move." Ang kaninang galit kong naramdaman ay napalitan Ng malambot na reaction Ng marinig ko iyon galing sa kanya. I remember my twin. "Prepare yourself. They're expecting you today, especially grandma." Pahayag nito at tumayo habang nakapamulsa. "And don't hope that something will change." Dagdag nito. "Follow me." Malamig niyang pahayag at dinaanan ako palabas ng opisina Niya. "Damn him! Akala mo Naman Kung sinong gwapo. Bakit kamukha at kasing hot mo ba si Chris Evans?" Galit kong bulong. "And don't hope that something will change." I mimically said and rolled my eyes. "The hell with you, asshole." Galit kong dagdag at sumunod palabas sa kanya.
