Lustful Desires [DESIRE SERIES #1]

Chapter 11

"I want you to give Wyatt the president position of this company. Since he will be your husband and you will be busy taking care of your future child. It will be help -"

"Don't you think it's unfair, grandma?"

"What?"

Veronica gave her a cold and menacing stare. As if it's piercing on her grandma's soul. Her expression turned into serious, and then she started to tap her finger at the table.

"I'm the reason why your company is now rich and famous. I'm the main reason why you have this luxurious life. Yet, you're ordering me to give the president title on that man?" Veronica spoke in a cold tone. "Is he part of the Raven Clan, Grandma? Did he have our blood runs to his body, hmm?.. Or your scheming behind my back."

Eliza gripped the cigar cutter tightly and then gave her granddaughter a force smile.

"I know. But he will be your husband, and you, as a wife, your job is to take care of the next heir of Raven Clan and become a perfect wife for him. I'm worried about our reputation if you do not become focus on work. That's why I was thinking of giving the president a position to himself. "

Veronica was raging mad because of Erika. Erika didn't think about the company's reputation. She just thought of her own reputation!. Veronica clenched her fist tightly and then punched the table hard.

"Grandmother!-"

Walang ekspresyon na hinarap ni Erika ang kanyang apo at sinindihan ang cigar na hawak niya.

"Think about it carefully, dear. He will help us to get richer and become royalty." Veroncia felt even more angrier as she heard her respond. As if her grandmother didn't know the value of her hard work!

She put her hand on her chest and then looked at her with demeanour and frustration.

"I will never give up that position! I'm the heiress of Raven Clan! Do you think our reputation will be good if you put him as the president!? We will be laughing stock at other people! He's just made for being a chef, not for being a president!-" napahinto si Veronica nang makaramdam siya ng mabigat na kamay na tumama sa kanyang pisngi Nag-iwan ng pulang marka sa kanyang balat

"Don't forget that I can snatch your position as president. At wag mo rin kalimutan na dahil sakin kaya nandyan ka sa posisyon na yan, kung hindi kita niligtas, hindi mo mararanasan itong mga luho Naging ganito karangya ang buhay mo dahil sakin Veronica, tandaan mo yan" mariin at may halong galit ang pagbigkas ni Erika.

Mahigpit na kinuyom ni Veronica ang kanyang panga at hindi umimik sa kanya. Tama naman si Erika. Kung hindi niya ito niligtas, hindi mabubuhay ng ganito katagal si Veronica sa lupa.

Mariin na diniin ni Erika ang cigar na kanyang hawak at inayos ang kanyang scarf. Tumayo ng tuwid at tinignan muli si Veronica.

"Gawin mo ang inuutos ko Veronica kung ayaw mong mapilitan ako na hilahin kita pababa" tumalikod si Erika at lumabas na ng kanyang opisina Lumambot bigla ang tuhod ni Veronica at napaupo siya sa sahig. Hindi na napigilan ng kanyang luha ang pagpatak dahil sa pinaghalong sakit at galit ang kanyang nararamdaman.

Matagal niyang pinaghirapan ang trabaho na ito. Ginugol niya ang buhay niya para maging perpekto siya sa harap ng kanyang Lola. Ngunit, bigo siya na makuha ang loob nito sa kanya.

Kahit na pagsabi ng congrats ay tila ba mabigat sa kanyang kalooban. Hindi pa niya naririnig na nagsalita o naging proud ang lola niya sa kanya. Naririnig niya lamang ito kapag nasa harapan sila ng kaibigan ni Erika.

Mahigpit na hinawakan ni Veronica ang carpet at hindi mapigilang mapahagulgol. Hindi na niya alam ang gagawin niya, dahil kilala niya ang kanyang lola at gagawin niya ang lahat para mailipat sa posisyon si Wyatt bilang presidente ng kompanya.
