Keeping His Queen! (HEARTLESS BILLIONAIRE SERIES 2)

Chapter 9

Andreas POV

"A deal is a deal son. Since hindi kayo nag ka anak ni Catalina kaagad we have to do the merging." Finally the two Empires will become one. I know hindi ito magugustohan ni Catalina.

"Dad, she wants annulment. The merging can't happen. I don't even see how!" I confessed.

"NO! THE MERGING MUST HAPPEN! TRY YOUR BEST TO WIN HER BACK! BE A MAN AND QUIT PLAYING GAMES ANDREAS!" Galit na utos ni Dad.

The next day nag pa tawag kaagad si Dad ng emergency meeting. The Garcia Empires there. In the conference room naka upo si Dad sa dulo nang mesa at si Papa Ken naman sa kabilang dulo. Unti-unting nag si datingan ang mga personel na kasama sa meeting. To my right is supposed to be Catalina and in front of her is Bryce. The rest of the table's filled with both the company lawyers. Four from the Garcia's and Three from us. Few minutes later dumating na si Catalina at Bryce. Tumayo ako to help her get settled.

"Well, since everyone is here let's start the process." Anya ni Dad. Binigyan kami lahat ng contract copy ni Joyce. My dad's secretary.

"Hija, do you have any question regarding the merging?" Catalina's father asked.

"I'll let Bryce take care of that part Pa. So far so good though." She said habang binabasa ang kontrata. Nakatingin lang ako sa kanya.

"What?" Taray nitong tanong.

"You look so beautiful today!" I whispered to her.

"Don't I look beautiful everyday?" She whispered back na naka ngiti. Nag tinginan sa amin ang lahat but we ignore them.

"Will you go on a date with me tonight?" I finally have the courage to say but bago pa siya maka sagot. Tumingin kaming lahat sa pintuan nang may kumatok at bumukas ito. Isa sa mga secretary nang Garcia Empire pumasok at tumungo kay Catalina. May papel itong inabot kay Catalina.

"Emergency daw Po Mrs. Torres" saad nito. Binasa ni Catalina ang papel at ng makita niya ang naka sulat tumayo ito nang biglaan.

"Excuse me. I have an emergency!" Kabadong sabi nito. Naiwan niya ang papel sa mesa. Aj  ang naka sulat. Nang dahil sa inis at galit ko pinunit ko ang papel.

"BRYCE!!!!!!" Nagulat kaming lahat when Catalina burst into the conference room crying. " BRYCE!! GET THE PLANE READY. I HAVE TO GET TO NEW YORK ASAP!!!!" She screamed.

"What happened???" Tumayo si Bryce at lumapit kay Catalina.

"I need to go. He needs me Bryce. Aj needs me!" She sobs.

"Calm down. What happened to him?" He asked calmly.

"I need to go home. He's waiting for me. He needs me Bryce. He needs me!!" She continue to Sob. This make my heart ache. She's so devoted to this Aj person. She loves him.

"What's going on Catalina?" Tanong nan Papa niya.

"Pa, someone tried to kidnap Aj!! They got him back but he got shot!" She covered her face crying.

"AT SINONG HANGAL ANG NANAKIT SA APO KO???!" Singhaw nito. Wait. Did he just say Apo?

"Apo?" Dad and I asked at the same time. Catalina's father glance at her first before he return his attention to us.
