Fated to You ( B L )

Chapter 40

Sebastian

"So you're telling me that Marius is cleaning up his men and he threw his phone that you used to spy on him?" tanong ko kay Haize.

I can see that he is pissed right now. Bukod kasi sa unti-unti na nabubulilyaso ang kanyang matagal ng plano ay wala na siyang pwedeng gamitin upang mahanap si Avery.

"He did," sagot niya sa akin. "But rest assured, my men wouldn't tell him anything. They rather want to die than tell him that it was me who planned it all along," sagot niya sa akin.

"I'm sure Marius already suspected you. Why wouldn't he arrest you?" curious kong tanong sa kanya.

"Why, you say? He and the organization don't have any evidence to pinpoint me. All they knew was that I am the leader of Haze. They are not aware of Kaizen. And he wouldn't want to do that because it might ignite a war between countries," sagot niya sa akin. "He's too smart to do that."

Nagpatango-tango na lang ako sa kanya.

Actually, wala akong pakiaalam kung ano ang gagawin ni Haize kay Mariua or kung ano man ang plano nito. Ang mahalaga ay matulungan niya akong makuha si Avery.

"So how can you help me to get Avery when you already lost the means of locating him?" tanong ko sa kanya.

"I have my ways. So just stay and do your part when I need you to do it," sagot niya sa akin.

Kanina pa nakaalis si Haize sa aking opisina noong dumating si Arnold, isang bagong business partner ng mining firm ng pamilya Saavedra. He has some business proposal for me to look too at magpipirmahan kami ng bagong business contract sa bagong project na gagawin namin. Originally, si Papa ang madalas na kausap ni Arnold. This is the first time for me involving the mining business of the family.

"Good afternoon, your grace," bati nito sa akin kasama ang kanyang secretary na ayon sa kanya ay fated mate niya, in other words ay ang kanyang asawa.

"Good afternoon. Please have a seat and let's go down the business," sagot ko sa kanya.

Marami kaming pinag-usapan at lahat ng aking katanungan ay nasasagot niya. The project he's trying to close is very interesting project since mage-benefit dito ang mga mamamayan ng Bree.

"If you want to learn more about the project, your grace. You can read the contract and then sign it afterward," sabi pa ni Arnold.

Binasa ko ito paper by paper. Matapos kong mabasa ito ay pinirmahan ko ito ng wala ng katanungan. Papa trusted this guy so am I too.

Matapos mapirmahan ang mga papeles ay nakangiting nakipag-handshake sa akin si Arnold.

"It's nice doing business with you, your grace," sabi niya sa akin bago nagpaalam.

Ah, ang gaan sa katawan ang wala kang ginagawa. All I have to do is to trust Haize to bring Avery to me and be a good duke just like my Father.

"Did you closed the project with Arnold, son?" tanong ni Papa sa akin pag-uwi galing ng House of the Duke.

"Yes, Dad," sagot ko sa kanya.

Nangunot ang noo ni Papa.

"He did? Usually, Arnold is a very picky man. Ayaw niya ng baguhan at walang alam sa mining business but still it's a good job. He must have seen something in you when he handed you the papers to sign," sabi niya.

"Dad, para namang wala kang bilib sa anak mo," natatawang sagot ko kay Dad.

Ngumiti ito sa akin

"Well, it's a good thing you already changed your mind about wanting Avery back. That's a good sign, son," sabi pa niya before patting my shoulder. "Keep it up, son. People of Bree will be proud of you."
