Innocent's Seductress (4th Gen #17)

Chapter 7

Heilan:

Meet me at Rad Cuisine by 9, Mommy.

Napairap siya sa tawag nito sa kanya pero may ngiti namang kumawala sa kanyang labi. She feel so old being called Mommy even tho the truth she's just two years older that him but at the same time its nice. It something that Heilan is giving her the way to dominate him.

She's planning to be late. Dapat ganoon, dapat hindi magmukhang excited. Hindi niya dapat ipamukha na sabik na sabik siyabg makita ito.

Kaya naman, isang oras bago mag-alas nueve nandoon na siya.

"Why the hell I am this early?" She hissed on herself as she entered the place.

"Nevermind. Aawayin ko na lang si Heilan na late siyang dumating kahit maaga lang ako."

"Ma'am?"

Napakurap siya sa untag ng sumalubong sa kanya. She awkwardly smiled and had realization that she probably look stupid talking to herself earlier!

Napatikhim siya umayos ng tayo.

"Reservation for Heilan Benjamin?" Proud na tanong niya.

Sa ilang taon niyang humahabol-habol ng nga Benjamin, may nakadate na talaga siya sa publiko.

Finally, finally, finally...deserve.

"This way, Ma'am. He's already here since 7."

What?!

Itinago niya ang gulat habang sinusundan ang babae. And true to her words, Heilan is already sitting on their seat, looking so fresh even tho he's one hour early from her arrival which is two hours early on the designated time.

Heilan stood up politely and dragged her chair. Taas noo siyang umupo lalo pa't nagsitinginan ang ibang tao sa kanila. Heilan sat in front of her and called for the waiter.

Finally, Heilan Benjamin with a lady in one frame. That would surely be the headline on the news!

"Isn't that Ckim Ferrera? The lady who's seducing all of the Benjamins?" She heard a whisper from the near table.

Napangiwi siya.

Grabe naman! All of the Benjamins talaga? Hindi naman niya inakit ang mga Tito at ang mga Lolo na Benjamin kasi matanda na para sa kanya, lalo na ang King kasi patay na.

"Like mother like daughter. They're probably just after Benjamin's money."

Omg, so true!

"Golddiggers." Dagdag pa ng kausap nito.

That's right!

She's not affected anymore. For years she built herself strong and unbothered. Nakakahiya naman kung kontrabida ka tapos mahina ka at iiyak-iyak kasi inaway. Ano 'yan, mahinhin bitch?

Naagaw ang atensyon niya kay Heilan sa biglaang pagtayo nito. Nagulat rin ang waiter na saktong paglapit nito.

"S-sir.."

"Who opened their mouth and talk for the last two minutes?" Heilan asked everyone in the room.

Natahimik naman agad at napayuko. He doesn't seem mad and ready to fight but calm and talk like he's in a negotiation.

"Don't make me repeat." Heilan said in serious tone that made her shiver.

What is he up to? Naiirita ba ito sa maiingay?

Nagsitayuan ang mga nagsalita. Mostly stood up...no, all of them stood up in fear.

Heilan grabbed his cheque book and write something on it, binigay nito sa waiter pagkatapos.

"That's one million for 20 people who talk shit about her."

Her eyes widen on what he said.

1 million divided for 20 people is 50, 000 each! Para lang sa paninira sa kanya? At binayaran pa nito? What is he up to? Tuwang-tuwa ba ito sa mga trashtalk ng mga 'to sa kanya?

"Heilan---"

"Call the security to shoo them away. I don't want any other person aside from us inside this cuisine." Heilan command the waiter.

"Yes, Sir."

Kalmadong ngumiti ang binata kahit na nagkagulo na ang ibang mga tao sa paglabas. Hanggang sa silang dalawa na lang ang naiwan ni Heilan ay saka pa siya natauhan.

"What did you do that?! You spent one million to shoo them away just because they talk shit about me?" Hindi makapaniwalang tanong niya.

"Are you mad?" He asked instead.

Napabuga siya ng hangin at napahilot ng sintido. Bakit ba parang wala lang dito na nawalan ito ng isang milyon? Isang milyon na 'yon! That one million can feed her the whole effin' year!

"Is the money too little?" Nag-aalalang tanong nito.

What?!

"Heilan, what the hell. Hindi pa nga tayo nakakakain isang milyon na ang nagastos mo sa 'kin." Palatak niya.

"I hate their words." Katwiran nito.

"They're right." Kibit-balikat niya.

"So, you're indeed a a gold digger?" He asked innocently.

"Haven't you heard a thing about me, Heilan? I tried to seduced the Benjamin on your generation so that they'll marry me and I can use their money! And I'll be living my life to the fullest as a Benjamin's wife." She said dreamingly.

"Oh. That's why you seduced me when I was eighteen back then? I rejected you because you're too flirty, mean and a bitch." He said. And the way he said those profanity doesn't sounds like a bad words, it was just sounds like normal for the tone of this innocent man.

Agad na nalukot ang mukha niya sa pagpapaalala nito.

"I hate you so much. You're my first rejection!" Pagdadrama niya.

"But anyways, can we proceed to eating now so that we can talk already?" Pag-iiba niya ng usapan.

The waiter serve their food. She focus on the food first because it just too yummy and for sure it was expensive.

"So, you wanna paint again and you'll hire me as your model?"

"Yes. You'll be a great subject for my piece."

"I can be your model, Heilan but I only have one condition and you can paint me for free..." She said seductively as she traced her fingers on her hand up to her arm and gently caress it.

"What is it, then?" Determinadong tanong nito.

Tumitig siya sa mata nito saka mapang-akit na ngumisi.

"Paint me naked, Heilan. I want you to paint me while I spread my legs in front of you. So...deal?"

Because this time. She cannot lose the chance to be a Benjamin's wife. Heilan is his last option, his last hope to be a Benjamin's wife.

She can already sense her victory. Heilan will fall on her palm and she'll have control over him. She will make him follow her like an obedient dog. He can be easily be manipulated because of his innocence. And surely, in no less than a year, she'll have him.

And the only thing for that to happen is to be the innocent's seductress. She'll make sure that her seduction will be his downfall. Ckim Ferrera will be Heilan Benjamin's endgame.
