"What what?" She answered confidently but I can see her fears in her eyes.
"DO NOT WHAT ME NOW OKAY? YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT AM I ASKING!!" I yelled at her making her startled.
She looked down and said "I am sorry I didn't mean to interupt you on purpose. I just wanted to talk to you about my job" she said while her eyes started to water.
I calmed myself as I continued "what about?" While watching her playing with her both hands nervously.
"My job.. You fired me, and I was banned to have my salary too" she said while she blinked back her tears.
I inhaled and looked at her. " I have no rights to fire you or hire you to work back there. I was just giving my opinion to fire you and it was not fault that they obeyed me" I said casually trying not show my sympathy towards her.
She looked at me with her watery eye and said " please you don't understand, could you atleast help me to ask them my salary. I worked so hard for it and I don't deserve to be treated like this".
"I can't, they wouldn't listen to me. Who am i to speak to them" I said knowing I could put her back to work. But I didn't like her working there. She deserve better.
She looked up at me with her teary eyes.

"Nevermind" she said lossing hope. "Thank you anyways Mr Reyes" she said as her tears rolled down her cheeks. She pulled her hair up and took a deep breath before she walk away.
I felt bad knowing I was the reason why she got fired. Then it hit me. Maybe I can help her.She was about to leave when I decided maybe nahh. Why should I interfere her life problem.
"Wait" I said remembering she left her purse on my bed. I kept it just in case she might come and ask for it. I turned and took the purse, patting it since was quite dirty.
"Here, you left this" I said passing the purse to her.
"Oh thank you" she said with a weak voice.
She was so sensitive. Her eyes were so swollen like someone punched her. She was about to leave again when my freaking mouth opened "wait again! I have something to say"
She looked at my with full of confusion.
"I could maybe help you, but you will have to take the risk" I said
"What job?" She ask still looking on the floor with her lips quivering.
"What should I do? She asked again this time she looked at me.
"You'll have to be my girlfriend"
"What?" She was in shook as she widden her eyes.
"Why me? And what for?'' she asked while wipping her tears
I told her about my lolo's plan and she listened quitely.
"I will pay you in return" I said and she looked at me with a frown. I knew what she was thinking
"Do I look like a slut to you?" She said staring at me
"No I never thought of you like that" I said while crossing my arms with a state of annoyance." I just want to help you since you have lost the job because of me and I would gain my lolo's trust at the same time. Its a win-win situation you see. Besides acting is a hard job you know". I said hoping she'll trust me.
I was waiting for her to give a respond but she was still looking at the god damn floor.
"5million pesos" I said while thinking if is it not enough for her.
CLAUDIA'S POV
5 MILLION PESOS? Pucha, I could buy a freaking house on the spot. But It had me thinking twice because one, I have NBSB ( no boyfriend since birth). Second, it sounds like im gonna work as a prostitute.
I looked at him and said " what if I screw it?"
He looked at me and said " Then you will not get any money that i have mentioned".
I sighed and made the wrong decision by saying "alright, I'll take it".
"But with few conditions" I said while putting my both hands on his desk.
"What is it?" He asked
"1) no sex, no making love and no kinky stuff too"
"Who do you think am I? Christian Grey? And for your informations, you are not my type." He said casually
"Good to know" I said while smiling.
"Moving on to number 2) you cannot be seeing or hooking up with any other girls or ladies too. This rule will apply to me too."
I can see a hesitation on his face. He is one of the reyes. Full of scandals and everything. "Fine what else?" He said with frustation.
"Lastly, I need a contract as a prove that you'll follow it" I said
"No problem I will have the contract ready" he said confidently
"How long am I going to be your fake girlfriend?" I asked him
"6 months will do" he said. I can't even stand him for a minute. How am I gonna be with him for freaking 6 months.
