Wanted: Perfect Nanny for the Heir's Babies

Chapter 24

"How's your investigation going, Armin?" Kaagad na bungad ni Aeon sa sekretarya pagpasok pa lang nito sa kaniyang opisina.

"Well, Sir, I've found out that . . . that all informations written in the nanny's resume are all legit. You don't have to worry about her, Sir. Isa siyang mapagkakatiwalang empleyado. I assure you, your babies are safe with her," puno ng katiyakang imporma sa kaniya ni Armin.

"Are you sure about that, Armin?" paniniguro pa niya tho he really trust Armin. Matagal na niya rin itong empleyado kaya subok na niya ang efficiency, loyalty at katapatan nito.

Well, he also trusts Tadz. Nakikita naman niyang sobra ang pag-aalaga nito sa mga anak niya. She takes good care of  them like they're her own.

"Y-yes, Sir. In fact, I've done researches about her family and work background. Do you want to take a look at this, Sir?"

Akmang iaabot nito ang hawak na folder ngunit ikinumpas niya ang kamay. "No need. Just keep it. Pinagkakatiwalaan naman kita. I know you won't betray me. And if ever you did, I'll have my men beat the hell out of you," hindi ngumingiting saad niya.

Natawa pa si Aeon nang napansin niyang napalunok at pinagpawisan ang kaniyang secretary. Tila yata seneryoso nito ang sinabi niya.

"Armin, my man, I'm just joking. You seem so scared. I'm a nice boss naman. You know I can't do that to you."

Dahil doon, natawa na rin si Armin. "Akala ko seryoso na ho kayo n'yan, Sir eh."

"I could be serious if I needed to," he told him. "Well, I'll have Mrs. Ruiz     deposit the money in your bank account later. That will be the payment for your investigation of the nanny."

"Hindi na po kailangan, Sir," marinig tanggi ni Armin. "Ginagawa ko lang po ang trabaho ko."

"Investigating Tadz wasn't part of your job. You have to be paid extra for that."

"Did I hear you right, Kuya? Pinaimbestigahan mo si Tadz sa kaniya?" Walang ano-ano'y bigla na lang sumulpot si Zephyrine sa pinto ng kaniyang opisina.

"Manners, Maria Zephyrine."

"Whatever, Kuya!" She said as she rolled her eyes. Puno ng kompiyensang naglakad pa ito at prenteng naupo sa kaniyang visitor's chair.

"Lagi ka na lang pumapasok sa opisina ko nang walang paalam."

"Pagbigyan mo na 'ko.' Sa'yo ko lang namang ginagawa 'yon, Kuya. I just want to surprise you," nakangiting sagot  pa ni Zephyrine.

"Well, I'm not surprise," punong ng sarkasmong sabi ni Aeon.

Umahon sa kinauupuan si Zephyrine at lumapit sa pinsan. Pagkatapos ay niyakap siya nito buhat sa likod saka hinalikan sa pisngi. "Sorry na, Kuya,"naglalambing na hinging-paumanhin nito. "You're being grumpy old man again."

"Ewan ko sa'yo," kunwaring galit na sambit ni Aeon but deep inside him, hindi naman talaga siya galit dito. And her cousin knows he couldn't get mad at her. She's his favorite and his closest cousin afterall.

"You can go now, Armin. I need to entertain na this naughty cousin of mine," baling niya sa sekretaryo. Agad namang tumalima ito.

"So tell me, what brought you here, my lovely cousin?"

"No, Kuya! Tell me first why did you have Armin investigate on Tadz."
