Warned

Right after Jacob massage my lower back and made sure that Peter can't enter my place, he immediately left because of emergency meeting in his company. He also mentioned that his stepfather and his biological father with take their presence on his building to talk about matters.

Ako naman ngayon ay tulala lamang sa bahay habang nag iisip kung ano ang maaari kong gawin. I never opened up my resignation letter to Jacob, and didn't even bat an idea into it.

I'm just assuming that he already have it and hoping he already signed it.

I stopped from sipping my chamomile tea when my phone suddenly buzzed; a text from my father.

Daddy:

U busy? Still working my daughter?

No, Daddy. I quit from work.

I'm waiting for Daddy to reply, expecting him to go overreacting about me quitting a job but surprisingly, he is overjoyed by my reply and even reacted a celebrating emoji on my message.

Daddy:

Great! Bring your essentials to our company, I'll give you something to do.. and we also have a problem hehe. I will appreciate your help :)

I'll be there at lunch Daddy.

Thank you anak! Take care.

It is already nine in the morning when I decided to get ready for errands. Wearing a baby blue long sleeve polo that is undone on the first two button pairing it with cool gray trousers and a pair of white step on heeled shoes that is perfect for this month of summer.

I didn't waste any time and drive to our family's business main building to finally work there. There is a problem on our company that I am not aware of.

As I got off my BMW, my heart rate went up. Feeling the excitement and curiosity that my father left on the text. Even though there is a problem, I still find it exciting because this is my first time dealing with my family's company and my first task is to clear up the problem.

I entered the lobby of my father's building, this company mean so much to my father- VFMC Vertigo Tiles Manufacturing Corporation which mainly manufactures the supply kinds of floor tiles in the Philippines. This is a huge company that I will soon take over as the president that's why I'm afraid to work here before because I'm too young to handle such a risky company.

Agad naman akong sinalubong ng isang lalaking staff pagka upo ko sa mahabang sofa bed sa lobby. There are other people sitting here and I assumed they are waiting for their appointment within this building however, I have to act fair and wait in line since it's only an hour before my meeting with Daddy.

It's comfy here.

Magiliw akong nginitian ng lalaking attendant na ngayon ay nag aasikaso sa akin. "Good morning Miss Vertigo, may I know your appointment?"

He's a good looking boy for an attendant, he kinda looks like a man that you will see on a show being interviewed by Fallon for his incredible album about his ex that is not his ex eventually.

Something like that.

Oh I remember he kinda look like a Charlie Puth without a slit on his eyebrow, and this attendant is more muscular and have wavy hair and cute eyes. Premium Charlie Puth.

I smiled back. "I have an appointment with my father on lunch time."

Tumango naman sya, "to be comfortable on your leasure time, Mr. President told us to assist you on the company's buffet corner to try the products." He said while his palm is pointing forward to the area that has a lot of tables and people that eat.. maybe some of them are employees and visitors.
