MRS. AZUCENA

CHAPTER 6

CHAPTER SIX

Bullied.

I smiled when I spotted Tyrion inside the restaurant, impatiently waiting for me.

I ambled towards him. I’m aware of people’s curious gazes at me as I walk to where Tyrion is. “Did I make you wait long?” bungad ko kay Tyrion.

Hinalikan ko siya sa pisngi nang makalapit ako sa kanya at umupo sa harapan niya.

He didn’t answer me.

“Let’s order na?” Ngumiti ako sa kanya pero agad ding naglaho dahil sa sinabi niya. “Don’t bother. Hindi naman ako magtatagal dito. Eating with you is fucking hell. I just came here to warn you to stop what you’re planning to do to my family if you don’t want me to ruin your daughter too,” madilim nitong sabi sa akin.

My eyes narrowed at him.  “Are you threatening me? Try me, Tyrion. Makikita mo. Magiging kriminal ako para sa anak ko.” Napakuyom ang kamay ko.

Parang hindi niya rin anak si Naveah, ah? Naglabanan kami ng titig ni Tyrion. Tumayo ako at dumukwang palapit sa kanya. “Handa akong pasukin ang kulongan kung susubukan mong saktan ang anak ko, Tyrion. Tandaan mo iyan. Wag mo akong takutin. I’m not the Marguerite you once knew,” I muttered as I kissed his lips.

Kalmadong umupo na ako ulit at nginitian siya. “Let’s order.” Tinaas ko ang kamay ko at nagtawag ng waiter para umorder.

Agad namang may lumapit na waiter sa lamesa namin. Sinabi ko rito ang order namin. Ako na mismo ang pumili ng kay Tyrion dahil mukhang wala siyang balak kumain.

“Thank you,” I thanked the waiter after he served us our orders.
Tahimik na nagsimula kaming kumaing dalawa ni Tyrion.

“Delete it.” Napaangat ako ng tingin kay Tyrion nang basagin nito ang katahimikan.

I arched my brows.

“At bakit ko naman ide-delete? Ayaw mo no’n may pa free bold ako ninyong dalawa ng asawa mo?” I blunty said to him.

“Marga,” he firmly clenched his jaw and called my name with a full warning.

I chuckled. “Hindi ko alam na... mas bet mo pala iyong flat kaysa sa malusog,” I teasingly said. “She’s not good in bed, not as good as me. While watching the video, while you fuck that bitch, bore me. Sure ka talagang iyon ang pinalit mo sa akin? You could have chosen better. I’m disappointed.” I disappointedly shook my head.

I have a video scandal of them. That video was taken years ago. Someone who I don’t know sent the video to me via email.

No’ng mga panahong kasal pa kami ni Tyrion. He’s been fucking someone else behind my back. Remembering the first time I saw the video, imagine how painful it was for me to bear while I’m pregnant with his child.

“I said delete it.” Hinawakan nang mahigpit ni Tyrion ang braso ko. Nasaktan ako sa higpit ng hawak nito pero umakto akong hindi ito masakit at tiningnan siya sa mga mata.

“Hurt me and I’ll post it on my account. I’ll let people know the truth behind our separation. The truth is that you cheated on me. Your good image in public well be stain and so as your company that you worked hard for.” He gritted his teeth and let go of my arm harshly.

I smirked.

I continued eating gracefully. I could feel his eyes piercing through my body.

Napailing-iling ako.

I looked at Tyrion when his cellphone rang. Tahimik ko lang siyang pinagmasdan habang sumisimsim sa hawak na wine.

He answered the call. “Yes, Love?” napairap ako. Love my ass.
