Kissing Mr. Not-So Perfect - Montecillo Series #2

[B2] Episode 16

💐

"And what makes you think you're Inno's fiancée?" Yoon folded her arms and matched this Renele Ibañez's bitchy demeanor.

Kung inakala ng babae na pasisindak siya, nagkakamali ito. Now she knew exactly why this girl looked familiar. Ito ang babaeng humalik noon kay Inno.

"I don't see a ring on your finger," sarkastikong tanong niya. And to prove her point, pasimple niyang inayos ang buhok—subtly showing her engagement ring. Kitang-kita niya ang pagkapalis ng ngiti nito. "So, are you really his fiancée? O sadyang assuming ka lang?"

Napasinghap ang babae sa kanyang naging pag-atake. Kung bitch ito, mas bitch siya. Lalo pa't ang lalaking mahal niya na ang pinaguusapan.

Then Renelea suddenly scoffed.

"You're poor nga talaga," pananaray nito. "You have no idea how engagements work in our world."

Kumunot ang kanyang noo. Muling gumuhit sa mga labi nito ang isang ngisi sabay angat ng mukha.

"Let me give you a short lesson about the elites, Arabella," simula nito. "Sa mga mayayaman, everything is business. Pati pagpapakasal."

Renelea took a step closer towards her took her hand to examine the ring on her finger.

"That ring on your finger?" anito sabay bitaw. "Pampalubag-loob lang 'yan. Something to make you sleep soundly at night. Pero it doesn't really mean anything. Hangga't walang makukuha ang mga Montecillo from you, that ring you're bragging about means nothing."

"And you think, may mapapala sa'yo sina Inno?" balik niya dito to which the girl replied with a sweet smile.

"My father's a senator," confident nitong saad. "Mapapakinabangan ng mga Montecillo ang mga koneksyong meron kami. Aside from that, kami ang pangalawa sa pinakamalaking shares sa La Monte. If he doesn't accept this engagement, malaki ang mawawala sa mga Montecillo. Ikaw ba, anong meron ka?"

The girl looked pathetic. Iniinsist nitong paniwalaan niya ang mga binibitiwang salita. But she knew better. She knew Inno.

"Ang puso niya," nakangiting sagot niya dito bago bumaling kay Kendall. "You can return me to Inno now, Ken. I'm sure he's dying to see me."

"Of course, ate," nakangising sagot naman ni Kendall. "I'm sure he's waiting na inside."

Bumaling siya muli kay Renelea na mukhang anumang oras as puputok na. She smiled.

"Good night, Renalea," malambing niyang sambit. Then she suddenly changed her expression to a cold one. "Keep dreaming, bitch."

Iniwan nila ang babaeng nakamaang lamang habang pinapanood sila papasok muli ng bahay. Sakto at sa may bukana pa lang ay sumalubong na agad sa kanila si Inno.

"Thank God! I've been looking everywhere for you—"

Hindi nito natapos ang sasabihin dahil agad niya ito sinunggaban ng halik. At hindi lang iyon basta lang na halik. It was a full-on make-out.

Everyone's eyes were on them—including Renalea's widened gaze. Hindi niya napigilang ngumisi habang magkasakop pa ang mga labi nila ni Inno.
