The Billionaire's Secret ✓

Chapter Four

Chapter 4

We are currently having our lunch at the canteen. Sumabay kami ni Dahlia sa iba pa niyang kasama sa department.

"Alam niyo ba na may long time girlfriend daw pala si Mr. Jones pero mala Romeo at Juliet ang ganap. Ayaw ng family ni girl kay sir." Saad nito.

Ayoko mang pakinggan ang sinasabi nito pero hindi pwede. I have ears and I can't just shut it close to avoid noises.

"Kaso wala ng trace ng kahit ano sa internet, burado lahat."

"So it means hindi sila nagkatuluyan?" Tanong ng isa sa kasama namin.

"Oo, hindi daw. Dinala daw ang babae sa ibang bansa. Girl, anak mayaman, politiko ang pamilya."

Napatawa ako sa naisip, why does it feel like the one they are talking is me? Imposible, hindi ko maalalang naging parte si Garry ng buhay ko. Isa pa, all my life I have been with Ethan.

Well, my dad is a politician. Minsan na nga lang ako nakakuwi saamin sa province. I am alone at our house here and Ethan visits me almost every night and week ends.

"Bilyonaryo pala si sir no? Ang yaman! May secret properties daw ito. Grabe girl, gusto ko magpabuntis kay sir!" Sumama ang tingin ko sa kulot na nagsalita. How dare her say that? Mukhang pera!

Hmp!

Inayos ko ang ekspresyon ko.

Why do you need to be affected Roxanne? Hindi namauulit ang nangyari kanina okay? You should never let your self engage with him anymore! He will surely ruin your life!

"Anne," he kissed my cheeks and my forehead. I smile at him.

"Ethan." I greeted back and kissed his too.

"I miss you hon." Aniya at hinalikan ang tungki ng ilong ko. I can't bear to be this close to him knowing what happened between I and Garry.

Kaya't dumistansiya ako.

"I miss you too, honey." I reply and sweetly smile at him.

Agad siyang umupo sa sofa at pumikit habang nakasandal ang likod dito.

"Ah! It was an exhausted day. I'm glad I'll be able to see you now. You know you're my only source of strength." He said and reach me, wala akong nagawa kundi damhin ang yakap niya mula sa aking bewang.

I begun to felt uneasy when his hands touch my butt.

"Uhm Ethan, hindi ba tayo mag didinner?" I asks trying to divert his attention. He reach for my cheeks and slightly kiss it. Bumaba ito sa leeg ko na naging sukdulan ko. I pushed him enough and got up from the sofa.

"Oh come on Anne. Naglalambing lang ako." He said and looked at me with his puppy eyes.

No, I can't. I let someone touched me Ethan, you don't deserve someone like me.

"May problema ba?" He asks when I am almost one minute staring at him while standing.

I shook my head and caress my tummy.

"I'm hungry hon, sa labas tayo kumain?" I said that made him smile. A sigh of relief.

"If it's what my honey wants. Go on hon, mag bihis ka na. I'll wait for you here." I smile at him and naughtily walk towards my room.

Ang bahay namin dito ay hindi gaanong kalakihan. I am with yaya Nilda and her daughter ate Nadine. Ate Nadine is a married but she weekly went home for her family. Sa week ends ay si Yaya lang ang kasama ko at so Ethan kung hindi ito busy. I only have two guests room aside from a master bed room for mom and dad. Minsan lang sila mapunta dito lalo't busy si daddy sa province.

Ethan's family is on our province too. Minsan lang din nakakapunta ang mga iyon at mostly kapag may celebration dito like birthday, Christmas and New year.

I stared my self on the mirror. I am beautiful, I know. Ethat always said that he is afraid that someone might be interested about me because I am damn beautiful. I can see it.

I love Ethan, I'm sure of it. Pero hindi ko mapigilang mag-isip tungkol sa nakaraan ko. I met an accident two years ago. I am now twenty-seven years old. So technically I'm twenty-five that time. Nagising nalang ako na nasa hospital ako at umiiyak si mommy at daddy. They were so happy. Honestly, nalaman ko lang na parents ko sila. Nagpakilala sila e. I lost my memory and now they are little by little coming back to me. I can now remember my childhood up to my high school life. Pero hindi ko maalala ang nangyari the time I reach college. I don't remember Ethan too and our relationship before the incident. Lahat ng nalalaman ko after ng incident ay mula kina Ethan and the people around me. They often tell me who I and Ethan were before the accident.

Recently, my head is aching.

The day before I and Garry had one night stand, Ethan asks me to marry him which I said yes. I'm twenty-seven and I want to settle down too.

But the moment I saw Garry on the bar, dangerously looking at me, alam kong there's something in it. Alam kong may kakaiba. It feels like Garry is part of my forgotten past.

Napasabunot ako saaking buhok dahil sa inis.

"Why can't I remember a thing? What's stopping me?" Inis kong saad habang kausap ang sarili mula sa salamain.

"What do you want to remember Anne?" Nagulat ako ng pumasok si Ethan saaking kwarto. I immediately cleared my throat and continue brushing my hair.

"K-kanina ka pa ba diyan?" Ethan eye's became serious.

"Bago lang, sakto lang na marinig kita. Something's bothering you?" He asks and stared at my eyes through the mirror.

I shook my head.

"Wala, gusto ko lang maalala kung ano tayo bago ang accident. You know that I lose my memory and that memory is you." I said trying to calm him. Mukhang naniwala naman ito. He hug me from behind that made me stop my self from brushing my hair.

"I love you honey." He whispered on my ear.

Lumunok ako.

"I love you too Ethan." I said and smile.

"I want to marry you as soon as possible. Can't we make it a little bit faster?" He asks irritably.

"I want to take this slow hon. Alam mo naman na once in a lifetime lang ikakasal." I said

"Then let me marry you again and again. If that's what you want." He said and tighten his hug. I sighed.

Bakit ba pakiramdam ko gustong madaliin ni Ethan ang kasal dahil takot ito? Saan ba ito natatakot?

I touched Ethan's palm to cheer him up. Ayokong madiliin ang lahat. I can sense that they are hiding something from me and one more thing is Garry, I can't control his libido. Hayok na hayok ito saakin. I want to assure that before I marry Ethan, hindi na niya ako guguluhin.
