Hate and Desire (Editing)

Chapter 9 - Present

Jordan Leveste shook his head at the memory. Sa loob ng walong taon, ngayon lamang niya pilit inaalala ang lahat ng tungkol sa kanila ni Celestine. He have block the girl in his memory for he was deeply hurt when she betrayed him. Pinili nitong saktan siya sa mga oras na hindi niya malaman ang gagawin sa problema ng pamilya nila. She hurt him so badly when all he could rely on and trust during those times was only her. She chose to humiliate him on his supposed to be wedding day...he lost Georgina that day. And his reputation was badly ruined.

"I was thinking of leaving the country buddy." Ang biglang nasabi niya kay Ramsel. He avoided his question.

"Where are you going?"

"To Paris."

"What's really the real score between you and Georgie huh? Are you ExWB?"

"Huh?"

"Search it in google, I think it's now showing!"

"Ex with benefits? Did you watch it brad?" Pakantyaw na tanong niya dito.

"Nope. I'm more interested in Aldub." He answered.

"Geez pare, seriously?" Napapailing si Jordan na tila hindi makapaniwala. "Now I know why Lassey dumped you. She's more interested to 'one piece' while you're interested to love teams!"

"Shut up! I'm just kidding!" Napipikong sabi ni Ram at binato siya ng unan. "But think of it brad, what's wrong with men fancying some love team stuff? We can actually  hire Aldub as our product endorser, you see, their millions of fans will definitely become our consumers too.""

Napaisip si Jordan. Ramsel was serious. And he have a big point there. Somehow, he came in his house to discuss business.

He have a lot of things to think about, the Leveste massage business has been the reigning massage business in the country, it was a business he established using his own money four years ago noong labas-masok siya sa bansa, not to mention his big responsibility with Leveste Manchions which his father announced just recently that he is the new CEO. Now he is in partnership with Ramsel's recording company too, but why do his mind is currently occupied by Celestine instead of thinking about his business agendas?

He decided to have dinner with Samantha after his visit with Ramsel. They dined in in a five star hotel in Makati. For the meantime, he trained  his sister for managing the Leveste Massage while he is busy with Leveste Manchions, his sister was more than willing that she even enrolled for massage classes in order to get her own certification. Masayang nagkukuwento si Sam tungkol sa mga aktibidades nito sa buong maghapon habang kumakain sila. He just quietly listened to her. Nawawala ang stress niya kapag kasama ang kapatid, she's so sweet and very talkative, he always finds her funny.

"How about you kuya? Tell me about your day!" Biglang tanong nito

He shrugged his shoulders.

"Well, I went to Ramsel's place today" Simpleng kwento niya.

Biglang kumislap ang mga mata ng kapatid niya.

"Really? wow! I'm his great fan you know! Binili ko kaya lahat ng album ng Aim high band noong panahon ng kasikatan nila!"

Umikot ang mga mata niya. "Drop it honey, he's married." Saway niya.

"But he's working on his annulment right?" She asked hopefully.

Nagpunas siya ng napkin sa bibig. "Sweetheart, Ramsel is not gonna annul his marriage with her wife, and I don't want you to end up being his mistress, okay?" Mahigpit niyang sabi and he meant it.
