Seducing my Baby's Father ✅

CHAPTER 7

Chapter 7     

"Awit. Ang gwapo niya talaga, can't wait to meet him in person!"

Inismiran ko si Eunice at padabog na hinablot ang hawak niyang newspaper kung saan naroon ang mukha namin ni Ace.

It's been a year since this issue spreads in the whole nation. Noong araw na dinumog kami ng reporters at naging front page ang mukha namin sa lahat ng dyaryo, magazines, tabloids, at kahit sa social media.

Itinago ko ang newspaper na ito para... hmm... remembrance, at higit isang taon na rin matapos ang pangyayari kaya limot ko na lahat ng detalye. Tumirik ang mata ko at ibinalik sa lalagyan ang newspaper.

"Woy! Ang KJ nito, pasulyap kahit isa beses." 

She made a puppy eye.

Humalukipkip ako at tinaasan siya ng kilay. "'Wag ka na mangarap, masasaktan ka lang. At nakita mo na, 'di ba? Hindi naman magbabago iyon."

Parang nauulol na ngumisi si Eunice at sinundot-sundot ako. "Selos ka lang, e. Sus." at humagalpak siya ng tawa.

Nanliit ang mata ko. "I am not jealous. Hell! I'd rather die than being jealous for that bastard!"

Her laughter echoed the room, I glared at her. "Stop it." puna ko at nag-ayos bago tumayo. Tumayo na rin siya but there's a mischievous grin on her face. "Aalis na ako. Take care of my son, call me if it's urgent."

Nilingon ko ang anak ko na naglalaro roon sa mga bear. My face softened and I walked towards him. I gave him a peck on the cheeks. Humagikhik ito habang nakatingin sa akin, napangiti ako.

"Ha? Sure ka? Ganyan suot mo? Paano mo 'yon maaakit sa jeans at tank top? With sneakers, really? Nag-spaghetti strap ka sana!" puna ni Eunice sa suot ko.

Pinasadahan ko ng tingin ang kabuuan ko. Hinarap ko si Eunice at bumuntong hininga.

"I'll stop this craziness, Eunice. Dangal at dignidad nalang ang meron ako, ayaw kong masira pa iyon. Ayaw ko na, tama na."

Yes. I planned it all night and now it's my final decision. Isang beses ko palang inakit si Ace Walton pero hindi iyon tumalab, babang baba ang tingin ko sa sarili at pati pride nilunok ko na to pursue such thing.

"Pero... paano ang Daddy mo? He will be angry and worst... he'll abduct your child." si Eunice sabay lingon sa anak ko. Napalingon din ako sa gawi ni Asher.

Bumuntong hininga ako. Inisip ko na rin iyan kagabi, alam ko na kung ano ang kahihinatnan ko if the deal wouldn't be approved.

Pero napagplanuhan ko na lahat, I know my father, he would do everything he wanted even if he risked his own blood. Ganoon siya kasakim. He's not the father I once admired and one to be with someday anymore. A loving father.

"I know." sabi ko. "I'll ask the CEO again for the last time if he's gonna sign the deal or not. If not, then I'll confront my father. After that, lalayo na ako, kasama ang anak ko. I know my father so well, ipapahanap ako no'n but no, I'll fight him to death. I'll protect my son at all cost, even if it risks everything."

"That's good. I really hope for this day, that Walton will sign the deal. Ayaw kong umalis kayo, e." Eunice hugged me, I hugged her back.

Kumalas ako sa yakap at hinarap siya. "I'm going. Call me if it's urgent." tumango siya.

I found myself inside the Walton Corp. building. Abot abot ang kabog ng dibdib ko habang papaitaas ang elevator.

My heart was beating rapidly as the elevator opened. Dala dala ko ang mga papeles na dapat papirmahan though I was not really sure if it was approved because our company was failing.
