I Slept with my Boss

Chapter 2

Ashley has her eyes set on Claire. She's really pissing her off. Rachel was right mas napapansin nga ni Max ang babaing 'yon.  At some point iniisip niyang dahil kakaiba ito sa lahat. That made her hate Claire.  He knew her name first bago siya natawag ni Max sa first name niya. Kahit na sa harap ni Lola Juliane.

Kailangan na niyang gumawa ng paraan para mapansin siya ni Max. Its the only way she can marry him. It was the deal she had with the old woman.

"Grandma, ayaw mo akong maging apo?" Paglalambing niya kay Lola Juliane. "Alam mo namang in love talaga ako kay Max." Bata pa lang ay lihim na siyang nagkagusto sa binatang Boss. She was sixteen when she first meet Max sa mansion nang mga De Silva sa Tagaytay. Sinama siya noon nang kanyang ina dahil ayaw itong samahan ng kanyang ama.

Mula noon ay madalas siyang sumama sa ina kapag dadalaw ito sa matanda. Pero hindi na siya sinuwerting makadaupang palad ang binata. She even invited him to her debut pero hindi ito dumating. But she never gave up her hope na balang araw muling magtatagpo ang landas nila at makikita niya ang nakaka-inlove na ngiti nito sa kanya noon.

"Of course, I know, dear. Pero hindi ako nanghihimasok sa love life ni Max. I want him to find the woman he'll fall in love with. Ganito na lang, why don't you work in the company. Kung lagi ka lang pupunta dito sa bahay para antayin si Max, baka mabigo ka. But if you work in the company, you might get the chance to make him fall for you. Then I promise I will make him marry you."

That was two years ago, pero hanggang ngayon hindi pa rin siya nagawang pansinin ni Max. She need to do something para mapansin siya nito. Walang ano-ano may ideyang pumasok sa isip niya. Saka napangiti.

"I'll make him mine for sure."

"You wanted to talk to me?" Formal na tanong ni Max ng pumasok siya sa marangyang opisina nito. In the pass two years, never pa siyang pumasok sa private office nito ng hindi kasama ni Mrs. Rivas. Kahit pa natuto ma siya sa function niya bilang assistant coordinator. Max never meet her alone in his office.

"Yes, it's about the thief?"

"Thief?--- What about her, you knew her?" halata ang eagerness sa mata nito. She might have taken something important to him.

"No, not yet. But I will find her for you. I don't think na interesado si Claire na gawin ang pinapagawa mo." Confidence was written all over her face.

"What?" Nagsalubong ang kilay nito.

"Well, with her, ano namang aasahan mo? She's weird, ugly and she's nobody." She said with disgust. A smirk came out from the end of his lips. Nagsalubong ang kilay nito pero hindi niya 'yon pinansin.

"And how sure are you that you can find her?" He leans his back on his chair.

"I have my ways." Kumpiyansang turan nito. "But you need to give me anything I want in return."

"Anything? That could be?"
