Lumipat ako ng condo para hindi ako masundan ni Reigan, I want to distance myself from him.

Pumasok ako sa opisina, a week after the conference. I never heard of Reigan nor Frank.

Dumeretso ako sa opisina ni Marco.

"Marco," sabay lapag ng bag ko sa table niya.

"ano, Val?" wika niya.

"Give me a report" wika ko sakanya.

"everything is doing great. Our establishments are running fine, I mean, doing great. The partnership with MGC is not moving, seems like, hindi na interesado si Reigan sa partneship, but the establishment, EM shopping center and the EDS are doing good. " wika ni Marco.

"how about the deal I made with the MR?" ako.

"the president is doing everything para mameet ang demands mo at para hindi mo makuha ang kumpanya nila." wika ni Marco. Dahilan ng pagkulo ng dugo ko.

"what do you mean?"

"He proposed a project, which I seem, will become successful dahil suportado ni Reigan". Marco's last line put a dagger in my heart. What the F, nakalimutan ko. He has this brother that is very great in business. Ayokong madamay si Reigan, but what the F is really happening.

"kailan pa ito?" ako.

"Last week, pagbalik ko dito, he called for a meeting. Good thing, he doesn't remember me. Buti nalang at hindi na ako nagpunta sa trial noon" wika niya. Yes, it is a good thing. Besides, wala na yung Marcong patpatin. He is now a man, a very good looking man with a very soft side.

"what happened? You didn't tell me" sabi ko.

"kaya nga nandito ka diba?, Valerie, kinakabahan ako. Now that they know, na buhay pa si Venice at pagmamay-ari niya ang ELITE, baka pagtulungan nila ang kumpanya " wika ni Marco.

"then, so be it. I think, it is time. Pababagsakin ko ang kumpanya niya no matter how much it costs, sisiguruhin ko na bago pa maubos ang pera ko ay gumagapang na silang mag-ama sa putikan". I grin.

Marco let out a loud laugh.

"Marco, the father is out of the country, looking for me. Nung lumabas ang balita na Venice is still alive, he flew to Canada, he's hunting me there. Mabuti nalang at tight ang security ng mga magulang ko kaya't walang nakakalapit sa kanila" wika ko

"That's what I'm telling you, sinabihan kita na . .. " tumingin siya sa akin.

"you know what's happening outside Marco. 5 ladies, dead!. anong pangalan nila?"

"Venice Hernandez" blangko ang expresyon ng mukha ni Marco habang nakatingin sa akin.

"now, tell me, nakakaya paba ng kunsensiya mo ang nangyayari, kasi ako?. hindi na" seryoso kong wika kay Marco.

Tumingin siya ng seryoso sa akin. Alam ko na alam mo Marco, they need to stop.

"anong gagawin mo?" tumayo si Marco at pumunta sa maliit na kusina sa office niya.

"coffee?" tanong niya

"yes, please" wika ko.

"anong gagawin mo?. those Venice's death are manipulated. Kung hindi dahil sa secret agent mo, hindi pa natin malalaman. What are they up to?". wika ni Marco sabay abot ng tasa sa akin.

"that, I want to know. It will be easier to talk to them, now that I showed up. Hindi nila ako magagalaw dahil alam nilang I can tear their company into pieces". wika ko.

"may meeting bukas, para sa project niya, Reigan will be there. " Marco. Everytime I hear his name, naiiyak ako.

"I will go" wika ko.
