The Rule Breaker Boss [R-18]

[6] Messed

-XAVIER-

"Take minutes. Lahat ng bago sa pandinig mo, of all the correspondence. Ipapaliwanag ko na lang sa'yo isa-isa pagbalik natin sa opisina." I told Ash.

Hindi siya nagsalita, but he looked at me and stared into my eyes directly.

At sa hindi ko maipaliwanag na kadahilanan, ako ang napaiwas ng tingin. I hate this. What is happening.

Katabi ko siyang nakaupo rito sa office ng PRY head. We are conducting our meeting with the other honorary corporate member.

After what happened earlier, I warned myself na I have to be cautious. I remember telling myself I need a difference. Pero si Ash, he's a different kind of difference. He just made me stumble upon myself and question my own actions: what the hell am I doing?

For the record, I'm still going very, very easy on him. Nagsisimula pa lang ako. Pero ako na 'yung natitigilan. This can't be happening.

I need to set a goal. I need to intimidate him. I need him to respect my presence. I know that he's awkward with me, from the very first day before his final interview until now. I need to trigger something from him.

"I will fight you. Tatapatan kita, I don't care what you think or others will think of me. If you're gonna be a rule breaker, as your secretary, if necessary I'll be a rule-breaker as well. Tingnan po natin kung sino 'yung tatagal, ako sa'yo o ikaw sa akin."

I smirked. Let's see, Ash. Let's see.

Tama siya, iba siya sa kanila. Iba siya sa mga naging sekretarya ko. Pero mali siya sa part na I'm treating her similarly as how I treated my former secretaries.

I am kind, but I have a dark kind of kindness. Mabait ako sa mga naging sekretarya ko pero alam kong I'm kinder with Ash. Noon, alam kong wala talagang makakapigil sa akin. Mataas ang pride ko at hindi ako nagpapatalo.

Ako palagi ang nasusunod.

But I believe that one of the main reasons why they developed feelings for me is my tendency to express appreciation and gratitude towards them. Maliliit na bagay sobrang naaappreciate ko. Madali lang akong kausap at ka-deal. Mapagbigay akong tao.

That's why I reached a point where I have broken so many rules.

Tatapatan mo ako, Ash? Allright. If I plan to have a sex with you, how different will that be?

But before that happens, I want him to eventually know my real personality. Para alam nya kung sino ang ka-deal nya. Na hindi lang nya ako kilala bilang boss nya, kilala nya ako as a completely different person.

I heaved a sigh. Itinuon ko na lang ang atensyon ko sa meeting na hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin nagsisimula.

Maya-maya pa ay dumating ang isang lalaki. Kasama nito ang kanyang sekretarya. Napadako ang tingin niya sa akin, and the moment our gazes met, I gave him a small smirk.

Umupo siya sa harapan namin ni Ash, katabi ang kanyang sekretaryang isang beses ko nang naikama.

He's Yoshiro Amano, the head of TrueVenture. The man who has been envious of me since I became the chief executive of Skyloft.

Hindi ko alam kung anong klaseng hangin ang umiihip sa ulo niya at ang lakas ng trip niyang makipagkompetensiya sa akin. He's not even that capable. In reality, he just relies on connections.

Sa totoo lang, proud pa siyang nakuha niya ang isa sa mga pinakamagaling kong naging secretary. Her name's Shartlott, the woman beside him right now.

I won't deny na magaling talaga siya. She's fast-learner, productive, responsible, mabilis kumilos. Also very attentive. Magaling din siyang humithit. Ako lang talaga 'tong nagbulag-bulagan.
