Chapter 35

" Now, if that's the reason why you invited her here in a long way, we will go home. " Dampn said in a stern voice.

" I want you to go back at the company after your marriage. " ani ng senyor kaya natigilan si Damon. Miski ako ay naestatwa sa kinauupuan ko.

The old man lift his head and darted his eyes on Damon. " You should go back there, i won't mind if you have your own law firm to manage. You know Odette, she wasn't interested in the company in the first place. Ikaw lang, Damon. " He said with full authority.

Nanliit ang mga mata ni Damon na tumingin sa mata. " Why? Are you guilty for blaming everything to Soul back then? You didn't even asked why i couldn't accept that deal. Why? Because you never trusted me! " he growled.

The man feels sorry when he look at me. " It's not that, i just wanted you to focus in the business. Our stocks went low when your mother got arrested. You know that. " he said softly.

Umiling si Damon. " Kahit na! I could've lose her that time! At kapag nangyari iyon, na mawala siya ng tuluyan sakin. I will never ever forgive you! " his voice echoed at the room.

I have never seen him this mad before, kung nagagalit siya ay nananatili pa rin dito ang pagiging malamig ng ekspresyon na ito. I know how Damon feels, he was furious because... he feels like he couldn't do anything about it back then.. naiintindihan ko yon dahil mahal din nito ang pamilya niya.

The fact that he did everything just to get her mother in prison, para sakin iyon.. nasikmura niyang ipakulong ang babaeng sumilang sa kanya.. dahil sakin..

" You know that i already lost your mother.. your sister was out of control... ayokong pati ikaw anak.. " His father's voice broke. Nakaramdam ako ng pait sa nararamdaman ko.

I understand his father, the pressure and stress are too overwhelming for him to handle everything just by himself, ang nakikita niyang nawawasak ang kanyang pamilya ay masakit na sa kanya yon.

" Damon.. " i called him, mapungay ang mga mata nitong nilingon ako. I slowly shook my head. " Please... don't get mad at your father, if you became a dad in the future... maiintindihan mo din. " pag susumamo ko.

His face became soft after what i have told him. Nag tiim bagang ito at inayos ang kanyang suot na suit. Nakahinga ako ng maluwag ng makita ko na siyang kalmado.

Sumulyap muli ako kay Hilario Lardizabal na ngayon ay nakatingin lamang sa anak, tila pinagmamasdan nito ang naging reaksyon.

" You know, when i had him... i knew in myself that he will be the best leader in our family.. not because Odette is a girl, but because how he stood up for all of us.. " Ani ng matanda at tumingin sakin.

Damon was just looking at me with his blank expression, halo halo ang nakikita ko rito. Pagod, sakit, pagka lito.

" That's why when i heard that Damon... was having an interest to a girl... i said finally. Because after years of finding him a match.... may nagustuhan na din ito. " Tipid na ngumiti ito.

Damon tilted his head. " It because you knew at the first place that setting me up in an arrange marriage won't do... i won't get married until i find the woman whom i want to spend the rest of my life with.. " mariin nitong sabi.

Senyor nodded at his son's statement. " But his mother got dissapointed... because it was you... and i apologize because you had a hard time dealing with our family, iha..i feel ashamed to Tanya, i didn't do what i promised her to protect her family at all cost.. "
