BILLIONAIRE SERIES #01 : Hiding the Billionaire's Twin Child

CHAPTER 3

I was starting at the girl na katabi ngayon ni Engr. Nicholai and the girl is not that fashionable woman. Nakasalamin ito ng makapal at naka blouse ng kulay krema at tinernohan ito ng jeans at naka rubber shoes lang ito ng kulay puti. Pero hindi ko ipagkakaila na maganda siya, may kaputihan ang kaniyang mga balat at makikinis pa ito halatang galing sa mayamang pamilya pero ang sabi ni Scky ay galing lamang ito sa mahirap na pamilya. I wonder where Nicholai found a girl like her, hindi rin maipagkakaila na bagay sila ni Engineer.

" Wise baka matunaw si Astrea sa titig mo " I was taken aback when Nicholai uttered a word.

Bumaling ako sa kaniya at inirapan siya.

" Tsk, anyways I set up this meeting with you because I will be out, and I can't handle your mansion interior designs. I'll work in an island for a couple of months. That's why I bring one of my employee with me. She will going to be your interior designer and also the engineer that will replace me will be your engineer for the meantime. " Mahabang saad niya.

" Why all of a sudden? We signed an agreement that you're not going to accept any projects until you finished the renovations of my mansion."

" Well to be honest I don't like to accept the project that will be held in an island, but my dad insisted to recommend me to that big client. Sabi sa akin ni dad mag papatayo ng hotel and resort sa mismong isla may kasama pang small clinic, and also dad told me that the client is planning to build a villa in that islan kaya ako agad ang nirecommened niya na mag tayo doon. And I can't say no because the client secretary already paid my service. It really is a big big client." Saad nito

" Geez it really is a big client. Good job that you grab it even though we signed an agreement mas malaki parin ang kinita mo."

" Anyways you can just call this calling card, yan ang calling card ng bago mong engineer para sa bahay mo. " He talked again and handed me a black colored calling card.

" Engineer. Gravien Dashwood " I uttered; it sounds expensive.

" Just call that number and set a meeting with him, masyado kasi siyang busy." He said and I just nod. Bumaling naman ako kay Astrea na kanina pa tahimik.

" Ehemm " pag tatawag ko ng atensyon niya. She looked at my way.

" Ahh, sorry Miss Wise. I'm Astrea Atienza your interior designer." Pag papakilala niya at inilahad ang kanang kamay niya sa akin for the shake hands. Tinanggap ko naman iyon at saka ngumiti, hindi ko alam pero ang gaan ng loob ko sa babaeng ito kahit na ngayon ko lang siya nakilala. She looks older than me mga nasa bente-otso siguro ang edad niya. After that shake hands, may inilabas siya sa kaniyang bag.

" Anyways miss Wise these are some of my designs that will suit your taste." Saad niya and she handed me a two portfolio na makakapal, puno iyon ng mga interior designs ng bahay, naka organize ang mga iyon sa portfolio. As I opened the first portfolio napanganga ako sa nakita ko dahil sobrang ganda ng mga iyon and I'm sure that the rest is more beautiful and more fantastic to see.

" If you like anything of them ma'am just let me know, kung wala naman po I can do other designs na gusto po ninyo." She politely said.

" Your works are good. Hindi masakit sa mata ang mga gawa mo. And I didn't know that you know my likings, ang ganda ng mga historical designs, I like it." Saad ko

" Kay Sir Nicholai ko po nalaman ang mga gusto niyo sa mga designs ng bahay, and I'm so lucky because I already did some interior designs na gaya ng mga likings mo ma'am."

" Oh, is that so? Akala ko pa naman ako ang pinaka unang taong magiging client mo." Saad ko dito at saka tumawa.

" But you're my second ma'am, ang swerte ko nga po kasi dalawang sikat, talented, matagumpay na businesswoman ang naging kliyente ko." tugon nito at ngumiti ng bahagya. Nginitian ko din ito ng pabalik.
