THYLANE'S POV:
"Paano kami makakasiguro na wala ngang mananakit sa amin?" one of the board members asked. I already told them that I knew about what's happening. I also said that I won't let anything bad happen to them.
"Magbibigay ako ng ilang tauhan para bantayan kayo. Hihingi rin ako ng tulong sa mga nakatataas para mas maprotektahan kayo." sagot ko sa kaniya.
"And how are you going to do that?" another board member asked with respect.
"We have lots of connections. I will ask Gideon to make calls para masigurong walang mananakit sa inyo at sa pamilya ninyo. I will also assign bodyguards at your houses and they will keep an eye on you, twenty-four-seven." paniniguro ko sa kanila.
Nagkatinginan naman sila na parang nangangamba pa rin na baka mapahamak sila at ang mga pamilya nila. Nanatili naman akong nagmamasid sa kanila habang humihiling sa Diyos na sumag-ayon sila.
"We shouldn't doubt what the CEO said." lahat ay napalingon kay Mr. Young nang magsalita ito. Hindi ko inaasahang magsasalita siya at sasabihin iyon. "We are already working in this company for more than a decade...and we all witnessed how the del Fuego's make their words come true." anang ginoo. "Simula sa kaniyang ama hanggang kay miss del Fuego ay hindi pa nila tayo binibigo sa tuwing may salita silang binibitawan...miss del Fuego right here, is more than willing to protect everyone of us because I know she cares for her employees...the CEO deserves to get our trust."
Naiwan akong tulala sa kaniya matapos niyang magsalita. What Mr. Young said made me feel at ease. I could feel how much he trusts me. Kahit ako ay walang kasiguraduhan na walang masasaktan sa kanila pero si Mr. Young...pinagkakatiwalaan ako para sa kaniyang buhay...kahit na wala namang kasiguraduhan na hindi nga siya madadamay.
Mr. Young looked at me and gave me a small smile before he gave me a short nod. A small smile appeared on my lips and gave him a short nod too then, someone cleared their throat.
"I trust you, miss del Fuego...I know you won't let anything happen to us." a board member sincerely said and then after that, everyone agreed in sync.
Everything went just like that. Everyone left the conference room with no worries. I sighed on relief as I watch them peacefully leaving this room. I am pretty sure that if they did not agree with what I said, I am probably working my ass inside my office. I was just standing there when I saw Mr. Young leaving.
"Mr. Young..." I approached him. He stopped walking and turned around to look at me.
"Yes, miss del Fuego?" he politely asked.
I cleared my throat before I spoke. "Thank you, Mr. Young. It is really a huge help for this company. Thank you so much, Mr. Young." I sincerely said.
Mr. Young smiled. "No worries, miss del Fuego." he said and gave me a short nod. "A wise man told me that if I could help then, I should help." he said. "That's your father." sabi niya pa na sinundan ng tawa. Napatawa rin naman ako. "He helped me when I was struggling. Now is my chance to return the favor." sincere pang dagdag nito.
That moved my heart. "Thank you, Mr. Young." pagpapasalamat kong muli.
"Anytime, miss del Fuego." he said and bowed his head shortly.
I WAS so damn exhausted when I got home pero mas magaan na ang pakiramdam ko dahil nabawasan ng kahit sobrang kaunti ang mga problema ko. Pagod na pagod akong naupo sa couch habang nakahilig ang batok sa sandalan. Ipinikit ko sandali ang mga mata ko at huminga ng malalim. Nakaramdam ako kaagad ng antok pero bago pa man ako tuluyang makatulog ay narinig kong may nagbukas ng pinto.
