Chapter 057

"For the defense plan to work perfectly, all of you must learn how to defend flawlessly," Cheska glanced at Kenneth's group. "Just like how I did when I shot Lorenzo. Just like what our organization did when your stupid master attacked us."

Alex giggled. "Yea, he's really stupid..."

"Kenneth, you are Lorenzo's right hand, right?" and he nodded firmly. "Since Lorenzo is not here, will you let me borrow several of your men? They will be put under our training."

Napakurap kurap siya. "I see no reason for Lorenzo not to agree with this."

"Our training isn't simple."

Natahimik sila roon. Ano namang klaseng training ang ginagawa nila?

Mae scoffed at tinanaw ang kabilang lamesa. "I will be handling them in case. Be sure to send your men with long patience and unshakable will. Once they enter this place, hindi sila pwedeng umalis dahil lang sa pagod na sila."

"Wow..." si Sean. "Alam mo palang nakakamatay ang training mo? I thought you didn't know..."

"Kung magpapadala kami ng mga tao rito, I will have to request a few of your men to come to our organization too. With this alliance, any day we can be exposed. If we are exposed, Joseph will not hesitate to see us as an enemy."

Napatango tango roon si Cheska. She's actually thinking the same thing. Naunahan lang siya.

That's their last topic for the meeting. Right after Cheska left the meeting room agad siyang tumungo sa opisina ng kaniyang ama para sabihin ang kailangang sabihin. Agad din siyang umalis dahil kailangan niya pang balikan sila Kenneth.

Arvin laughed the moment Cheska left the office. Simon was caught off guard. That was a one loud laugh.

"I told you! I told you she won't fail!"

Maya maya ay napangiti ng marahan si Simon doon. Now, he is 100% sure that the Lee organization will be fine and will be better under the new mistress' leadership. He can put his full trust in her just like how he trusts his master and the former mistress.

Nang makabalik si Cheska, believing they are already done introducing themselves with each other, agad niyang kinuha si Ralph. But since Alex wanted to come, sumama na rin siya. Kenneth and Xander are left with the Lees.

Now that they are so far from everyone, tahimik ang kanilang kapaligiran. Ralph felt this awkward silence between the three of them. Kung kailan kailangan niya ang kadaldalan ni Alex saka ito tahimik.

He's too busy roaming his eyes around. It's a miracle that he still hasn't said anything despite being in awe.

"Can I ask where we are going?" sa wakas nakapagsalita na rin siya.

Cheska tossed a glance to him, siya ang pinakanauuna sa kanilang tatlo. "Don't you want to see the girl you like?" b

He flinched.

Binalik niya ang tingin sa harapan. "We are heading to Alexandra."

"Even...you?"

"You called me yesterday, right? My apologies for not being able to answer it. Masamang balita kaagad ang bumungad sa akin pagbalik ko rito that's why I had no time to check my phone."

"You also know I like her?"

"Oh," muli siyang napatingin sa kaniya but this time she also glanced at Alex. "Alex told me."

Agad na sumimangot ang mukha ni Ralph at saka binatukan ang kaniyang katabi dahilan para matigil siya sa kaniyang sightseeing.

"I am behaving!"
