Captivating Benjamin (4th Gen #11)

(2)

Never enough? Well, let see.

"Dad."

"Yes?" Bungad nito sa kabilang linya.

"You can rest now."

"What? Why does it sounds like you want me to die?"

Napakamot siya ng batok.

"What I mean is, I'll accept your offer to handle your company."

May law firm pa kasi ang Daddy niya at may business pa. He's encouraging him before to take care of his company but he refused because it's too much work.

"But you have company already."  His Dad said in a matter of fact.

"It's never enough for me."

My wealth is never enough, huh? Magkanong wealth pa ba?

"What?"

"Nevermind. Huwag na nga lang po. Bye, Dad."

Baka sa susunod pa niya kukunin o ipapasa ng Daddy niya.

Pwede niyang payabungin pa ang kompanya niya. Pero kung kayamanan lang ang basehan pwede niyang lunurin si Clea 'dun. Never enough, tss. Sino bang inaasahan nito, ha? Does she have someone already?

"Hellion, punta ka sa hospital. The surrogacy---"

"Oo, pupunta na." Putol niya at agad tumungo sa hospital. Nakapunta na siya doon kaninang bago sila pumunta sa beach resort. They asked for his sperm and her egg.

But when he get out of his car, he heard a loud bang from a gun.

And to his horror, she saw Clea.

Agad niyang tinakbo ang distansya papunta rito pero natigilan ng makita si Ivy na duguan.

Agad siyang kinain ng konsensya. The riding in tandem is familiar because of the logo. It's from the organization's enemy. Hindi pa talaga siya tinitigilan dahil hindi pa inaaprubahan nag pag-alis niya.

"H-hellion...the s-surrogation---"

"I know! Gagawin ko 'yun. I'll find a surogate mother for that."  He felt frustrated. Imbes na gusto niyang umatras sa surrogation ay mas lalo siyang nadidiin dahil natamaan na naman si Ivy.

"No..I f-found..." But she lost her consciousness.

Ivy was delivered on the ER. Agad niyang binalingan si Clea.

"Why are you here?"

"Hellion---"

"Go away, Clea. Ivy doesn't need you."

Probably Ivy hates Clea, right?

"But---"

Napailing siya sa inis.

"Just go away, please! This ain't the right time."

Natigilan ang dalaga saka napaisip ng malalim.

Agad itong tumalikod at nilisan ang lugar. That made him ask himself...tama ba ang ginawa ko?

But that was answered when Clea showed herself again saying she is carrying his son. Maling desisyon ang nagawa niya. If only he just listen.

And that doesn't stop there. He continue being jerk and he was at fault. There's no question on that.

But upon seeing Clea, her genuine expressions...that made him angry. Because he remembered that's the Clea who fooled him months ago.

But that anger vanished as he witness Clea almost died before his eyes on giving birth to his son.
