Drew's POV
Natulala ako sa kawalan nang hilahin ni Xavier si Anya palabas sa venue, tila may kakaibang pakiramdam ang unti-unting nabuhay sa aking dibdib habang nagbabakasakaling bumalik sa harap ko si Anya but it didn't happen
I was about to follow them when Gaze stopped me by blocking the way
"You don't have any right to follow them"
"I am your boss, who are you to talk to me like that!"
"I am expecting you to say that you are her husband, but you didn't, Sir Stanton. That makes sense na wala po kayong karapatan upang sundan ang asawa niyo"
Eshell said emphasizing the word asawa
"Drew? What's going on here?"
Sumulpot na lamang bigla si Chella mula sa kung saan, napahilot ako sa aking sintido saka lumayo sa mga kaibigan ni Anya
"Nothing. Parang may gulo lang sa labas so I decided to check it out but then these two employee volunteered to check it by themselves, right?"
Paglingon ko sa mga kaibigan ni Anya, I saw disappointments on Eshell's face habang matatalim na tingin lamang ang natanggap ko sa kasamang lalaki saka sila sabay na tumalikod at lumisan
"Attitude! You should fire them! You're the boss here!"
Suhestiyon ni Chella, if only she know.
"Anyways, let's take a sit? I've been starving since we came here"
Nakangusong anas nito, nagpatianod na lamang ako sa paghila niya at hinayaan siyang magdesisyon tulad ng dati
"Mr. Stanton! Nice meeting you, I'm sorry we're late!"
Agad akong napatayo ng maayos nang bumungad sa akin ang isa sa pinaka-malaking negosyante sa buong bansa, how lucky I am to have his sign and become his business partner
"It is totally fine, Sir. I know how busy your schedule is, I am more than grateful to have you here tonight"
"You know that I treated you as my most trusted partner so there is no chance I'll let this big event slide, but I guess you have a problem tonight"
Nakangising saad nito ngunit alam kong may kakaiba dito, Chella then came holding two plates full of food
"Oh, my bad, I'm sorry for interrupting you"
"Yeah, you really did"
Nanlaki ang mga mata ni Chella sa mabilis na sagot ni Sir Garzon sa kaniya
"W-What---"
"We need private space, Miss. Can you give this table to us? Just us?"
Sir Garzon said making Chella's face turn red, tinanguan ko ito nang tapunan niya ako ng tingin she then walked out after putting down the plates
"Did I saw it right? She needs your permission before leaving? Didn't she know me?"
Sir Garzon ask I was about to say something when he raised his hand up making me stopped talking
