Billionaire's Hardheaded Wife

Chapter 57

LAYLA POV

"May gusto ka ba kay Jase?" Deretsong tanong ko sa kanya. Napahinto siya sa pag inom niya ng kanyang milk tea. I invited her here to have a one on one talk with her.

"Huh? Sir Jase?" Klaro niya.

Hindi ako sumagot sa kanya.

"You are his fiance right?"

"You seem close to him and you are always with him. He rarely has time for me, and I heard He is sending you home. Are you hitting on my fiance?" I glared at her.

" I am his business partner and you don't have to worry because I don't like him and we are doing pure business, about that thing, you have mistaken us. We are on both ways and he insisted to send me home since it was already late. I am not hitting your boyfriend." She assured me I don't believe her.

"Mabuti naman at nagkakaintindihan tayo. Ayaw ko kasi ng may dumidikit sa magiging asawa ko na ahas... sadyang ganoon lang siya pero sana huwag mong isipin na may gusto siya sa'yo."

"Naku, hindi ko naman iyon iniisip. Business partner lang ang turing ko sa kanya at kasama naman namin ang ibang board member." Klaro niya at kumai ng pizza.

"Wala ka naman dapat ikabahala sa akin. At saka ang ganda mo, kaya malabong ipagpapalit ka niya." Tumawa siya.

"Mabuti naman at nagkakaintindihan tayo." I sip on my lemon juice.

"Kasama din ba sa duty niya ang pagtulong niya sa'yo, tulad ng pagbubuhat niya ng gamit mo?" I saw Jase help her with her things.

Sa una ay naguluhan siya at nang naalala niya ay nagsabi siya ng explantion sa akin, "Hindi ko naman inaasahan iyon at saka napansin ko din na ganoon si sir Jase sa mga tauhan niya. He likes helping and assisting his employee."

Bakit ba ang daming rason ng babaeng ito?

"Hindi ko na ito uulitin ulit. May gusto ka ba sa kanya?"

"Wala!" Mabilis na sagot niya at ngumiti sa akin.

Tinignan ko lang siya at ngumiti, "ayaw ko kasi magkaproblema sa amin kaya naninigurado na ako."

"Okay lang iyon, at saka kung ako din ang nasa posisyon mo ganoon din ang gagawin ko."

This woman is made of plastic.

"SIR Jase."

Musa called him.

"Hey." He fixes his tie.

"Uhmm, my brother was invited to the party and I want to say that you don't need to pick me up in my condo since my brother is coming." Musa shyly refuses Jase's invitation from fetching her to his condo.

At saka, maling tignan na sinusundo siya nito habang meron na itong fiance. Hindi ba invited ang fiance nito? Dapat ito ang kasama niyang pupunta sa party at hindi siya.

"And I don't want others to make an issue between us, I don't want to label a mistress, hehe." She's trying to be careful with her words.

Napakunot ng noo ang lalaki.

"Mistress? I am not a married man." He clarifies while still frowning.

"Kahit na! Malapit ka na din ikasal. At saka, diba dapat kasama mo ang fiance mo sa party?"

Hindi na nakasagot si Jase dahil bigla na lang dumating sa eksena si Layla habang may dalang paper bag.

"Jase! Babe, I bought you some snacks." Layla said while walking in his direction.

Layla put down the paper bag on his table because he won't accept it.

"Oh, Musa nandito ka rin pala." Layla greeted her when she notice her.
