The Billionaire's Secret Wife (MBBC#10)✅

68. Welcome home

Zebedee Glenn

.

"Fine. I got what you want, Glenn." Steven jerked his head up while laughing.

My jaw tightens. If only not for Hendrix, Steven could be lying on the stone of dirt right now. I want to punch the bastard, but dammit, I couldn't do that. I need to control myself.

"But let me tell you one thing, Glenn. If you let go of Erykah, you will have no chance of getting her again. That's for sure."

I snorted. "That will never happen. I will not let that happen." Tiim-bagang akong nakatitig sa kanya, at natawa ulit siya.

"Damn, I never seen you this fucking serious, Glenn. You never liked anyone besides Saber. Did something change, engineer?"

I can't stop but laugh and chuckle.

"You will never understand it, Steven. I'll be glad if you will. But I doubt it. The likes of you, when it comes to women, can't understand what love is all about."

"Yes, I get that. Ganito na siguro ako, dahil ito na ang nakasanayan ko." Bahagya siyang natawa.

"When I first met Erykah, she was intriguing, and my research about her proves that she's not an ordinary person."

I looked at him sharply, trying to calm my senses so that I would not make any negative mistakes. After all, the Okinawa is our business partner.

"You're a lucky man, engineer." Tumayo na siya at napatayo na rin ako.

"It's nice to see here. So, let's catch up again?" He extended his hand for a formal handshake.

I smile and nod briefly before shaking his hand.

"Let's catch up again, Steven. Good luck with the business, bud."

"Same to you," he expressed, and then we parted.

Sa wakas, nagkasundo kami ni Steven na maging pormal sa lahat pagdating sa negosyo. Pasok na siya sa Brittsman, pero hanggang doon lang din ang ugnayan niya pagdating kay Erykah.

He might see Erykah once in a while for the business, but nothing personal anymore. I made sure of that. He knows that I am here for my wife, and I don't need him to linger around her.

I made a promise to Erykah's parents that I will protect her with my life. Kahit na wala na sila sa mundong ito, ay aalagaan ko si Erykah sa abot ng makakaya ko.

I will provide everything for her and keep her happy. I will make sure that everything around her is easy and accessible, including her business. I will try to help her in any way that I can to make her happy.

She's not just my wife but my partner for life. She is my everything now.

We made our way back to where she used to live and the place seems empty now. Wala na ang mga dating tauhan ng bahay dahil binago ito ni Emelda. Kahit na ang nag-iisang butler ng Papa niya noon ay pinatalsik ni Emelda sa pamamahala niya.

The mansion stood empty. It's lonely.

Erykah paused and looked around the area. She didn't move and waited for me to guide her along the way.

"I'm here, babe. Let's get inside," I smiled with confidence.

"Okay..." she weakly responded.

The moment our feet touched the grand stairs to the main door, an old baritone voice greeted us. It was Esteban, their former butler.
