Chapter 17.

"Ha..."

Malakas na napabuga si Ledaine ng hangin habang mariing pinagmamasdan ang madilim na paligid niya.

Although it was her decision to bought a house in a secluded place behind a mountain, she felt like she'll get depressed on how dark and silent her surrounding is. Maliban sa galit na nararamdaman niya kay Yasser, nadedepress na rin siya dahil wala siyang ibang maaaring gawin sa bahay maliban na lang sa pagmasdan si Yasser at isipin bakit hindi na lang siya ang minahal nito.

Buti sana kung may internet connection ang bahay niya, pero pakiramdam niya ay makakagawa si Yasser ng paraan para ma-access ito at makatakas kahit kinuha niya ang kaniyang selpon, kaya hindi siya nagpakabit.

-- ... That was a deep sigh.

"Shut up, I'm feeling depress." Sabi niya sa kabilang linya saka sinandal ang likod sa katawan ng puno kung saan siya nakaupo. Nakaupo siya sa isang makapal na sanga ng isang puno malapit sa bahay niya habang pinagmamasdan ang madilim na kalangitan na puno ng bituin.

Biglang umihip ang malakas at malamig na hangin mula sa gubat kaya napapikit siya upang damhin ito.

-- Depress? Well, think about Yasser then. If you're depress, how about him? He's been there with you for a week, with no contact with his family or friends. Not knowing whether they are still alive or not. Heck, I bet you didn't even let him know what is the current happenings right now.

"I inform him news about Chloe."

-- Goodness, boss. Chloe's issue is not the only thing that concerned Yasser. Did you know that our country is being flipped over because of Chloe's connection to Yasser, the only heir to the ST Trading Corporation? Their corporation contribute around 0.5% to our country's economy, it will be a big loss to the country if their company suddenly collapses just because Yasser's ex-girlfriend had sex scandals with multiple influential figures in business world.

"Buti na lang wala akong pake."

-- Of course, this really doesn't concern you in any way, boss. But that man, that man you kidnapped and is currently your hostage, the man you are supposedly in love with, is in the center of all these happenstance. He is the eye of this storm. If he won't appear now, those issues will become bigger. I heard that since some of the spouses of the men Chloe involved herself her with, planned to file a case against her, this issue will be discussed in the court. I mean, in the Supreme Court, or even in the Senate if this continue to dwindle in an ominous way.

"Oh? That's good then," sagot ni Ledaine. "I have more influence within the government, so if this issue entered the court, I will be able to make Chloe pay for making Yasser a stupid fool."

Masamang tingin ang sabi niya habang nakangisi, nagpakawala naman si Hux ng buntong hininga.

-- You're crazy, are you even sure Yasser will like it if this issue become that severe?

"Pakielam ko? Hindi naman niya malalaman," sagot ni Ledaine saka inalis ang dumi sa kuko niya. "Saka, kay Yasser lang ako nababaliw, wala nang iba pa."

Napatingin si Ledaine sa direksyon ng bahay niya saka nagsalita.

"Anyhow, make it so that those people trying to make Chloe rot in jail won't be able to raise the Supreme Court's attention."

-- ... Nasa proceeding na nga ang mga kaso laban sa kaniya.

"Wala akong pakielam, basta gawan mo ng paraan. Just three weeks to go," sabi ni Ledaine habang nakayuko at nakababa ang tingin. "If I can't make Yasser love me, I will release him. At the same time, we will step back from helping him. If he can't love me after all these, then I don't care about him anymore."
