Avoiding The Mafia (COMPLETED)

Chapter 38

Celene POV

I was left alone in this confinement of his office. One hour is not enough, mga two hours ata ang iniyak ko.

I need to let these tears out because no matter what happened, I know I will agree to this. Kahit labag sa kalooban ko ay susundin ko. Not because I want to, but because I need to.

My emotions haywire. The thought of marriage makes me feel like I am cheating on someone. Someone who I thought loved me unconditionally, someone I thought can't live without me, turns out he just used me.

Pero ang sakit pa rin talaga. Kahit anong pigil ko sa sarili kong huwag siyang iyakan dahil naapektuhan na niya ang overall health ko ay sadyang traydor ang mga mata ko. Hindi ko maiiwasang isipin kung saan ako nagkamali, saan ako nagkulang at saan ako naiiba?

This overwhelming emotion is killing me literally.

I was in the state of crying desperately when my heart yet again beat erratically. It hurt like hell so I stopped myself.

This always happens lately and I know exactly why. I know who's accountable for this.

I inhaled deeply and shrugg all the unwanted thoughts. I need to make up with my heart dahil alam kong I took it for granted. I know I have a weak heart pero hindi ko parin inalagaan.

After having cried, I left his office. I marched out toward my room, but not before I stopped midway.

A thought came out suddenly.

If I'm going to marry someone I don't know just because I'm an heiress of Zacirada, it means I will be part of this family forever. And I may know about the dirty little secret they do, I still lack knowledge about the past.

Nagpatuloy ako sa paglalakad. Inayos ko ang sarili ko for the first time. I took shower, applied some moisturizer and fixed my eyes. I smiled bitterly as I saw my reflection in the mirror. Losing weight is very evident on my face. I had small fat before but now, my features got defined.

My black eyes lack of emotion. Dati parang pati ang mata ko ay nagagawa pang tumawa, but now it just dead as my soul.

I went out again and directly went to the Don's office. I sighed deeply when I saw him inside.

"What do you want?" mabilis niyang tanong pagkakita sa akin.

I hesitated for a while but I bit my lower lip and spoke what's in my mind. "Since I will be part of this hell of a life, I want to know the reason behind all of this!" I said, sound demanding.

He frown. "Reason?" parang lutang niyang tanong. Ibinalik niya ang tingin nito sa papel na binabasa

"Matrox has said something about the past. Zanrada was supposed to be the name of this organization. I want to know what happened. I want an answer!"

He immediately laughed as he heard what I've said. "Hindi mo pa pala nabubuksan ang document ng pinaglalaanan mo ng maraming oras?" panunuya niyang sabi.

My stomach knotted. God! He knows? So that means, he also knew that I know all about his dirty transaction?

"I don't know how you got that document since it's stored and secured properly" he paused to loosen his tie. "Did Matrox give it to you?" tanong niya. His voice is laced with annoyance.

I nodded. If lying will save me from his anger, I will. I'm afraid of what he'll do when he gets to know I hacked the system.

He sighed deeply like he's having a hard day before he opened one of his drawers and pulled out a white folder. He handed it to me.
