That's Maverick! He's back. Anong ginagawa niya rito?

He's now a bit distant and cold. But even if he completely changed, he matured a bit I think. That makes him more attractive. I'm sure of it, he's Maverick. Maliban na lang kung may kakambal siya, na imposible dahil alam kong nagiisang anak siya ng mommy niya. Hindi ko lang sigurado sa side ng daddy niya.

Though as I think of it, it's not impossible that he has a brother in his father's side. Sa tuwing naaalala ko ang ginawa ng hayop na 'yon sa Mommy ni Mav, posible ngang may kapatid siya rito.

"Good afternoon, Ma'am."

My thoughts faded as I heard the voice of my secretary.

"Morning. Where's dad?" Pormal at walang emosyong tanong ko.

"He's waiting inside your office, Ma'am." Nakangiting sagot niya na sinuklian ko lamang ng malamig na tango.

Nilagpasan ko siya at dumiretso sa pinto ng aking opisina. Sa aking pagbukas ay bumungad sa akin ang hindi maipintang mukha ni Daddy, nakatayo malapit sa bukana ng pinto at tila inip na inip na sa aking pagdating.

I nonchalantly smirked at him as I went on my swivel chair. "What's up, Dad?"

I can already feel it from the way he looked at me. Mahaba-habang usapan 'to.

I caught him staring at my clothes, it made me frowned and shook my head afterwards.

I tapped my fingers on my table as I waited for his words.

"Can you wear something presentable tommorow?" Nanliit ang mga matang tinitigan niya ako. Muli niyang pinasadahan ang aking suot na damit.

"Yeah, you don't have to ask me, I know what to wear depending on where I'll go," I muttered as I shifted on my seat, trying to find the comfortable position.

"You know? You're in a company. You're a CEO for fuck's sake, Amaryllis! Yet what the hell are you wearing!"

My office is soundproofed, that's why he has the guts to shout and curse at me. But if not, surely he won't dare.

He's the most educated, prim and proper senator the people would know. Though in my case, he's one of the worsts.

"I only planned to go to the race track and not in the company," I nonchalantly muttered.

Mariin siyang napapikit at marahas na nagpakawala ng buntong hininga.

"What the fuck is that?" He started his real reason why he asked me here as he pointed the iPad in my table. Ngayon ko lang napansin iyon, kung hindi pa niya tinuro.

I glanced at it. Napatuwid ako ng upo at inabot iyon. I let my fingers rest at the back of the iPad. My brow raised as I saw a photo of myself getting out of the Speedtail. I'm sure this was captured earlier. They're fast, huh?

"Where did you get that McLaren?"

I shrugged. "Binili?"

"What?" He exaggeratedly responded. The small nerves on his forehead is now visible. "Why would you even buy that car! Do you know what people will think if they saw you using that?"

I blinked as I nodded. "Hmm, nabasa ko eh." Bahagya kong itinaas ang iPad sa aking kamay, tila ipinapakita iyon sa kanya. "It says here that you're corrupt. Ang mga perang nakukuha mo raw ay ipinangbibili ko ng mga luho, tulad no'ng kotse." Napakunot ang aking noo. "This is wrong!" Eksehaderang sambit ko habang diretso sa iPad ang mga mata.
