Island Series: Agatha Christie Ong

Chapter Fifteen

Chapter Fifteen

Halos maputol iyong lapis na hawak ni Agatha dala ng malalim nyang pag iisip. Does Ezekiel knows about the other business? Imposibleng sinabi ng Kuya Allen nya.

Iniling nya ang ulo at napabuga ng marahas. Unfortunately, Ezekiel wanted her to trust him over this. But why?

A knock on her door made her snap out from her thinking. She looked up and saw Ezekiel, ang bilis nya ding napatayo.

"Is there a problem, Husband?"

"I was wondering if we could have lunch? Are you done with your work."

Pinatay nya ng mabilis ang computer at tumango.

"Sa labas ba?"

Bumukas ang pinto at pumasok si Piper na may dalang paper bags.

"I already ordered food, don't worry."

Napatango si Agatha at inaya si Piper pero alam nito ang salitang privacy kaya ending silang dalawa lang ni Ezekiel ang magkaharap ngayon.

"I will be heading to Isla Verde this week. For checking lang since buntis si Aliana at hindi nya maaasikaso iyon."

"Yeah, update me everytime."

Humila sya ng tissue at pinunasan ang gilid ng labi ni Ezekiel. She even narrowed her eyes.

"Are you being clingy now, My Husband?"

Hinuli nito ang kamay nya at ngumisi. "I just wanted to make this relationship works, Agatha."

"Very well, hmm.. I think you're doing good."

"Nandyan si Papa?" Bungad nya sa mga tauhan nito pagkapark nya ng sasakyan nya.

"Nasa loob po, Miss Agatha."

Dire diretso sya doon at naabutan ang ama na abala sa mga wine bottles na collection nito. She greeted her father.

"Papa..."

"Is there something wrong?"

Matagal syang nanahimik kaya binalingan sya ng ama nya.

"About Pinto Company?"

"Is there a possible that Tito Ian knows our business? I mean the other."

"You want wine hija?"

"Papa." She called again.

"Bother already?" Inabot nito ang wine glass sa kanya. Tinanggap ni Agatha iyon. "You agreed,"

"I think he knows, Ezekiel knows something."

"And if he does?"

"You're not going to kill him, right?"

"He's exempted, don't worry. He's still your husband."

Lumagok sya sa wine. "I didn't file the marriage contract,"

"You fucking what?!"

"I didn't file--"

"Damn! I never knew you would do that, Anak!"

"We're just using them right?"

"And being his wife is also part of the plan."

"Hayaan mo na wala namang makakalam na hindi naka-file."

"Paano pag chineck nya? You're doom, anak. All of our plans will be dust."

Inubos nya ang laman ng wine glass at nagsalin uli. Pinagmasdsn ni Elliot ang anak nya.

"I'm sure he won't."
