The Mafia Boss' Wife

Chapter 12 - Eagle & Swords

[Quir's POV]

Damn that woman! 

Kakarating lang namin sa destinasyon namin at pinapasakit na niya agad ang ulo ko, tsk. 

"Boss, kaya kaya 'yon ni Zhannie?" 

Huh! The hell I care whether or not the Perovega's are big or what. They're just a bunch of filthy and greedy f*cktards. 

Hindi ko siya pinansin at patuloy lang sa paglalakad patungo sa sasakyang naghihintay saamin na hinanda niya.

For all I care, baka nga sila ang mahihirapan sa babaeng 'yon. I smiled at the thought. 

That woman just... there's something strange about her, I just can't pinpoint. She's a big puzzle that came into my life and wrecked it with that single piece of it that I just cannot seem to find.

"Anong plano natin, bossing?" He asked the moment we settled inside the car. 

"Observe." It's not new for them to be riled up for days-- weeks even, according to Heethz intel. What smells different is that, their attention which focused on us for many years, shifted to another.

I'll get to the bottom of this, nothing is remained concealed in the face of the devil itself.

[Zhannie's POV]

Sinubsob ko ang sarili ko sa mga papeles na nakatambak sa opisina ng lalaking demonyo. Akala niya ata sinong robot ang binili niya't tinambakan ng mga papel na halos kalahati ng katawan ko ang taas. Tanginang 'yon!

Kinuha ko ang kapeng tinimpla at inabot sakin nung kutong-lupang turotot saka ininom, in fairness, masarap. Just this time pupuriin ko 'yun ng palihim, baka mag-ingay na naman. Wala pa naman ako sa mood. Tangina kasi yung mala-hipong lollipop kanina, kung maka agaw eksena, wagas! E audition ko kaya 'yon sa mental, baka pumasa.

Tiniklop ko muna ang mga dokumento ng demonyong lalaki at siningit ang problema ko sa Aackley. Hindi ko alam, pero kahit na alam 'kong tagilid kami ngayon, hindi ako nababahala. Something's wrong with me. Tsk!

I scanned the papers nainutos kong inadala ni Sienna kanina. Alam kong binubugnot na naman yung board of directors dahil nag bigay ako ng notice that I'll be on leave for a week kahit na tatlong araw lang naman mawawala yung demonyo. 

I don't believe that the crisis we are facing right now has something to do with the Javier's. I mean, duh! It's true that medjo not in good shape ang kumpanya, pero hindi naman talaga ganon ka problematic. And besides, I get this feeling that there's a mole lingering in a fox's den.

Napaangat ako ng tingin nang bumukas ang pinto. He's someone whom I think the devil is acquainted with, but I only saw him once, doon sa "kasalang" naganap. God, I don't even know his name!
