Akiro's Sugar Mommy

Chapter 15. (SPG)

Things got complicated for Akiro with his busy schedule but spending time with his wife Patricia made it look easy as he felt energized with just a glance of her.

His training lesson ain't as easy as it was before, because having Kier Saionji as his sparring partner made it hard for him to counter his attacks, but still... he learned a lot. One thing though, he can't understand what's the real deal between Kier and Mr. Gregory Nikolaev, because it doesn't look like they were just simple "friends." However, he let go of that thought and let them handle their issues. It is not his business to be involved with it. 

As he was walking inside the mansion he stopped at the sight of Rafael Alvarez. The mysterious figure of the man in the portrait feels odd to him. Why does he look familiar? Did he see him before or what?

"Aren't the Alvarez, Filipinos? Why does this man look like he doesn't have any drop of Filipino blood on him?" He asked the presence that was approaching him.

Huminto ito sa paglalakad at pinakatitigan din ang portrait. "That's because Master Rafael is an adopted child of the Alvarez. He was adopted in an orphanage in Canada when he was five years old." Sagot ni Adam sa kanya.

"Really? That's news to me." Kumento niya. He did not learn the Alvarez family history yet aside from their family business history that will eventually be his. "So? What do you want, Old man, that you're sneaking at my back like that?" He asked Adam.

The man chuckled at what he said. "It's good to know that you're becoming good at detecting others presence, Young Master." Anito. "As for your question. The madam was looking for you at her office."

"Well, I'm heading there now. It is just that this portrait caught my attention. He oddly looks familiar. I wonder if I met him before?" Aniya. "Alright, gotta go, Adam!" Paalam niya kay Adam at naglakad na patungo sa opisina ng asawa.

Adam who was looking behind his back looked back at the portrait of his former master. "Isn't that because you two look alike?" Napaisip siya. "It's not like, Master had a child- or does he not?" Aniya.

Looks like he needs to do some research. Who knows what he can dig in a stone mine, right? If he goes into it further, maybe a pile of diamonds was there hiding. A diamond that can discover the legitimacy of their heir.

"WHAT A BULLSH*T!!!" Gigil na nilumukos ni Roland Alvarez ang mga papeles na ni report sa kanya ng isa sa kanyang mga tauhan. "I've been assigning you with the task, why are you giving these pieces of sh*t!" Itinapon niya sa mukha ng mga ito ang envelop na naglalaman ng mga hindi naman importanting impormasyon na kinalap ng mga ito.

"Pasensiya na Boss! Alam niyo naman na masyadong mahigpit ang security system ng Alvarez Corporation. Plus the merge happened a year before between Alvarez Corporation and the Faust Chain of Hotels are creating a huge impact not only for their businesses but for their joint security system." Nakayukong ani ng tauhan niya.

"TONTO!!! Dapat alam niyo na iyon sa umpisa pa lang! Bakit hindi kayo humanap ng ibang paraan para malusutan lahat ng mga posibilidad na problema!? Imbes puro palpak na trabaho nalang ang ginagawa niyo! Ako pa ba ang mag-iisip?!" Galit na sigaw nito sa mga tauhan. "Talagang mautak si Rafael! Alam niyang mamamatay na siya kaya pinakasalan niya ang babaeng iyon at ipinamana dito ang lahat ng kanyang mga ari-arian. Pero hindi bale, dahil sa kamay ko din mamatay ang Patricia na iyan. Mapupunta rin sa akin lahat ng mga ari-arian nila. Akin lang ang companya mo, Rafael! Maging ang companya ng babaeng iyon!" Hibang at nakangising ani nito sa sarili.

"May naiisip ba kayo, Boss?" Binatukan nito ang tauhang nagsabi niyon. "Mga B*bo kasi kayo! Ang mabuti pa ay tawagan niyo si Yema! Maghahanda tayo para sa darating na Foundation day ng Companya." Anito.
