His Wife (HMW book 2) [COMPLETE]

Chapter Three

Nath's POV

"Mister" I spoke.

"Oh dear, its you" He stood up and give me a hug and a peck on my right cheek.

"Your getting older and older, aren't you?" I joked.

"Talaga ba, hija?" I rolled my eyes upward and sat on the seat in front of him.

"Di ka na mabiro, Apo. So what's with you? Bakit nagbago na naman po yung desisyon niyo?" Agad na tanong ko.

Apo, yun ang tawag ko sa kanya. He's already in his 70's at siya yung taong tumulong sa'kin. Siya yung taong tumulong sa'kin para kalimutan kung ano ang nangyari sa nakaraan.

Siya yung tumulong sa'kin nung walang-wala ako at di ko alam ang gagawin ko.

He's like a father to me.

Marahil siguro ay kaedad niya si Lolo, kaya nararamdaman ko ang kalinga ng isang ama sa kanya. Nung una namukhaan ko lang siya hangang sa alukin niya ko ng trabaho, and then dun ko din nalaman na siya pala yung matandang lalaki na nag-abot sa'kin nung panyo noon.

"Nothing, I just really think that it would be better if we will do the project together with our biggest investor." I just nodded and look at him with a suspicious eyes.

"eh ba't sa Pilipinas, apo?" He just chuckled. 'To talagang matandang 'to.

"Why, hija? Are you still threatened?" I pull back my gaze and clear my throat.

"Threatened of what?" I sounded innocent.

"Lee" I really don't know why, but by just hearing his name still give me shivers.

"No, I'm not" I answered quickly.

"Well it looks like you are. Anyway prove me wrong dear. Malaki ang Pilipinas as well as the business world. It would be a fate if you two will meet again." I shook my head and smile.

"I will prove you wrong, apo" I smirk, He just shrug and dismissed me.

I immediately go to the kitchen after I let myself in in my unit. Kumuha muna ako ng tubig at saka dumiretso sa kwarto para magpunas at magbihis saka ako bumalik ulit sa kusina para gumawa ng dinner ko.

Agad ko naman nang inatupag yung laptop ko matapos kong magawa yung dinner salad. This is my life since I chose to stand for myself.

Laptop and a salad on my other side every night.

"So how was it?" Chris asked whose on the other side of the screen. I smiled at the thought that he really never fails to check me out. Even its late already.

"What's it?" I asked confuse.

"Your talk with Mr. Z, how was it?"

"Oh that one. I already agreed." He was a bit surprise but then he recovered.

"Oh, Are you really sure, Hon?" I smiled.

"Yes, I am. Besides its been three years. Magkita man kami ulit o hindi, nothing would be change, hon" He sighed and smile.

"I hope so, Nath. I hope so" he said smiling. I was about to ask him if there is any problem but he already change the topic.
