"Do we still need to continue the private meeting? I think it's kinda risky for Taegan and for the committee."

It was Lucian who spoke up. We're at my Suite. Nandito kami sa sala, nag-uusap patungkol sa mangyayaring meeting mamaya. They will now officially introduce me to the private committee, our business partners. I was already introduced to our relatives, but not yet with the business counters. And they introduced me... privately!

Private.

After living with them, I can say that Del Mundos are private persons. They do things... privately.

I researched for an article about their long lost sister--- which is me. I just want to know if they published a picture of me, a name or something to find me... but I didn't find one. Wala akong nakita maski isa tungkol sa akin. Maski sa kanila. Well, there were lots of magazines and tabloids who published about them but as I read them all, it was way too common. As in mga common information lang like names, address and so on. Deeper information about them? There's none. I can't read it all over the internet.

Christian and Sebastian remained silent. Sebastian then moved a bit as he looked his way to Christian.

"I don't think they'll be able to have an eye on our meeting knowing we'll be in a private space." He trailed off, hesitant as to what he was about to say. "Do you still want to continue the meeting?"

Christian remained silent.

I saw how Sebastian's muscle moved. "Christian."

Napatingin ako kay Christian nang tumayo siya. "Call Donald as our private chef in the meeting. No assistant or anything. Just us, the committee and Donald."

Wait... Donald? Is he also the Donald that I know?

Sebastian smirked. "Okay, got it."

Bago pa sila makaalis ay nagsalita ako. "Christian, do you mean... Donald, our Chef at home?"

Christian confusingly looked at me. "Yeah---"

"Papupuntahin mo rito para lang sa meeting?" Nanlalaki ang mga mata ko.

He pursed his lips. "He's here."

Mas nanlaki ang mga mata ko. "He's here?"

Christian hissed as he winced. Naririndi sa boses ko.

"Idiot. Didn't you see him at Whitehaven's Restaurant? He's there."

I glared at him for calling me an idiot. Fuck him! I am not an idiot! Asshole!

Sebastian and Lucian chuckled.

"What?" pagtataray ko sa dalawa.

Sebastian smirked at me. "Be presentable later. It would be shameful if you'll show yourself in that private meeting like that."

Napatingin ako sa damit ko.

Puta! Nakadress naman ako, ah? Ano pa bang susuotin ko?

"Fuck you!"

Sebastian laughed. "Nah. Remember that you have a three little kiddos who were listening at your words, Taegan."

Gulat akong napapalingon at nakita ko ang tatlo na umiiwas ng tingin sa akin. Kita ko pa ang pagtakip nina Atreus at Kristoff sa tainga ni Elaiza.

I hissed.

Akmang susugurin ko ng suntok si Seb nang mabilis siyang lumabas, tumatawa.

Napailing-iling nalang ako.

"Let's go."

Kita ko ang agarang pagtayo ng tatlo. Sabay silang lumapit sa akin.

"Where are we going, Mommy?"
