"Anong ginagawa ng may-ari ng Kingdom Iraza dito?!"
"What? Saan?"
"Dito sa hotel natin sa Tagaytay! Why the fuck is he here?!"
Kuya Monmon tsked at me.
"He's a rich, powerful and smart businessman. May pera siya para magrelax. Or maybe he's with his girlfriend and they decided to stay there!"
The last one made me feel irritated. Hindi malayong mangyari iyon. Pero kung may girlfriend siya, wag siyang lalapit saakin at titingin ng ganoon! O kahit na sa kaninong babae lalo pa at hindi niya kasama nang gabing iyon ang girlfriend niya.
Is he cheating? He might be cheating!
"Teka nga, ano naman ang problema kung nandiyan siya? Why are you so bothered?"
"I-I'm not! I was just asking! Syempre nagulat ako na nakita ko siya dito eh kahapon lang ng umaga nung nagkaroon kami ng deal about sa hotel sa Davao! Hindi ba pwedeng magulat?"
"You sound defensive. Anyways, I gotta go. You should be done there and come back here after lunch." he said and ended the call.
Parang ayokong lumabas at mag-agahan sa restaurant. First is baka makita ko roon sila Christian at Hestia, second is baka makita ako roon ni Edge.
Thinking about the second one made me nervous. What the hell?
Calm down, Iya. You're a Villafuerte, a lioness. You shouldn't get intimidated so easily!
Dahil sa trabaho ay napilitan akong kumain ng agahan sa baba.
My secretary and body guard are waiting for me at the lobby. Nang makarating ako roon ay agad silang sumunod sa akin.
"After the breakfast. You'll be checking the villas since you decided to stay on the hotel room. Lunch at 11:00 am and we'll be departing at 12:00 pm." I looked at my wrist watch. It's 7:30 in the morning.
I was actually planning to jog earlier but the image of me bumping with either Christian or Edge made me changed my mind.
Nang makapasok kami sa restaurant ay agad akong ipinaghila ng upuan ng aking sekretarya sa isang table na nasa gitna ng mismong silid. Maraming tao ang nagbebreakfast ngayon but this seat is reserved for me. I'll be checking their breakfast meals. My secretary took a sit beside me habang ang body guard ko naman ay nakatayo sa entrada ng restaurant.
Mga ilang minuto lang ay inihain na ang putahe nila para sa umagang iyon. Nag-umpisa akong kumain. Naghahanap ng mali sa bawat putaheng matitikman. I found none kaya naman ay tumingin ako sa aking sekretarya at sumenyas. We started eating. Bumalik ang head chef sa loob ng kusina pati narin ang iba pang chef na nakatayo sa aming harap kanina.
"I chose the Villa 17 for you to check miss. " My secretary said. I nodded.
The Villa 17 is on the opposite way from the villa where I saw Christian and Hestia. I don't wanna see them flirting and all after what they did to me. Hindi naman kawalan sa kompanya kung paaalisin ko sila pero hindi rin iyon professionalism. As much as I hate thinking that they're free to go to our hotel after what they did, business is business.
Matapos kumain ay agad kaming umalis papunta sa likod ng hotel. The golf cart is waiting for us. Sasakay na sana ako nang biglang may naunang sumakay roon.
"Wait! It's ours!" I shouted a bit and got my tongue-tied when I saw Edge's face. Nakasakay na siya roon sa golf cart.
He's composed, looking dark again with an intense gaze. Samantalang ako ay nag-uumpisa nanaman kabahan. Bigla ay nairita ako.
