The Billionaire's Chief Secretary (Completed)

Chapter 21: Amnesia

"Sleep tight, love." I stood straight while still looking at his face.

I've missed him, I missed calling him love like he always does to me. Tears started streaming down from my eyes and I quickly wiped it.

I shook my head. No. I won't fall for him again, I promised that to myself.

Tumalikod ako at iniwan siya sa kanyang kuwarto. Dahan-dahan kong pinihit ang doorknob hanggang sa maisara na iyon.

"Mckenzie." My breath hitched as I look at the woman whose standing right infront of me.

I smile at her genuinely, I can't let her see that I am still affected. Gusto kong sampalin ang mukha ko dahil nakalimutan ko na meron palang fiance si Enzo.

"What are you doing here?" Jessamine asked calmly.

"Uh- Boss didn't report this morning that's why I decided to go here then I found him lying on the bed, having a fever. I hope you wouldn't mind me to take care of your fiance, he's my boss after all."

Sandali siyang natigilan, mukhang gulat at nakakunot ang kanyang noo. "Fiance?"

Kumunot ang noo ko. "Isn't he your fiance?"

Pagak siyang tumawa ng mahina. "I wish that that was true but it wasn't, you know who he really loves..."

"Please let's not talk here."

She nodded. She told me that we'll go outside his house so he won't be disturbed from his sleep.

"So where are we?- Oh yeah. We're not even engage because he do treat me as his sister. I love him, but he loves someone and we all know that that was you."

Tumingin siya sa akin, nakita ko ang sakit na dumaan sa mga mata niya.

"I was with him in those five years, nandoon ako palagi sa tabi niya kahit na araw-araw niya akong tinatabuyan. I even tried to lie to him that I am you, that I am the girl in his past but he couldn't believe it because he treat me as his sister. I hate you for that!"

"Jessamine, kung manggugulo ka..."

She shook her head. "I don't have the intention to make any trouble with you. I really hate you for everything, Mckenzie... Simula noong dumating ka noong highschool, hindi na ako tinutulungan ni Enzo, ang mga kaibigan niya ang tumutulong sa akin para mapaalis ang mga manliligaw kong makulit."

She shook her head in disbelief.

"Well, because he'd focus on you. He even treats you like you're his wife, like you are his whole world, he isn't selfish pagdating sa iyo... Tapos ikaw?! Anong ginawa mo?! Iniwan mo nalang siya ng ganoon-ganoon nalang? You'd let him suffer for years over now."

"Jessamine please..." Napahilot ako sa sentido ko. Sa lahat ng ayaw ko ay iyong sinasabihan ako kung ano ang maling nagawa ko pero mukhang hindi talaga ako nila titigilan.

"No!" Sigaw niya. Nakita kong sunod-sunod na pumatak ang luha sa mata niya. "You're just to selfish..."

"I am not!" Pagtatanggi ko pero alam ko sa sarili kong ganoon ako.

Lumaki ang mga mata niya habang dinuduro ako. "Yes, you are too selfish, you only think of yourself. You know I love him that's why hinayaan ko kayo noon, minahal ko siya mula sa malayo kahit noong kayong dalawa pa kasi ang alam ko, perfect kayo sa isa't-isa kahit na hindi ko iyon tanggap, pero iyong magawan mong iwan ang taong mahal mo...after all of what Enzo did to you, you left him because of your selfishness!"

Umiling ako, sunod-sunod na luha ang tumulo mula sa mga mata ko. "Tama ka, iniwan ko si Enzo at makasarili ako pero ma dahilan ako!"

"Mckenzie..." Natigilan ako sa pagsasalita, ganoon din si Jessamine at sabay kaming napabaling sa pintuan nang bumukas iyon. Naguguluhan siyang tumingin sa aming dalawa tapos ay sa akin ulit tumingin. Napalunok ako sa klase ng tingin niya. "What was that? What do you mean?"
