the proposal

may konting harot po muna tayo ha 😉💕
pero last na.... 😇✌🏼

a fuming mrs. faulkerson made her way to her husband's office, for the first time she did not greet anyone back which came as a big surprise because rfj's wife is always charming, sweet and accommodating whenever she visits the office.

"mukhang tabla ang amo natin dito" one employee murmurred to the other

"pre hindi lang tabla, mukhang lagot si boss nito" another one commented

"ano kaya ginawa ni boss at mukhang gabriela silang ang peg ni madam?" another employee asked

when maine reached the receiving area of the CEO's office she went straight to allie, their receptionist.

"good morn—"

where's my husband? she asked impatiently

"ah ma'm nasa conference room po—"

she did not let allie finish. she walked to the direction of the conference room quickly. the receptionist immediately stood up to accompany rfj's wife.

"may meeting po si rfj with the finance department mrs. faulkerson, should i give them a heads up po na gusto nyong kausapin si sir?" habol ni allie. mahirap na.

rfj gave them instructions, all of them. mula sa mga senior vice president all the way down to the maintenance department, pati contractual employees, ojt hires and part-timers. when mrs. faulkerson needs him, he should know right away.

agad-agad. ura-urada. kara-karaka. ngayon na. now na. walang teka-teka. walang pero-pero.

he should be available right away for his wife. period.

irregardless of whoever he is having a meeting with, his wife should always come first. that's their rule. everyone should follow. EVERYONE. it was even ammended in their company contract. failure to comply is equivalent to saying goodbye to the company.

no. i can manage mabilis nyang sagot kay allie

she opened the door of the conference room naabutan pa nya na lahat ay nakikinig sa presentation ng department head.

richard, a word

three words. she had only spoken three words and every man in the room started closing their folders and gathering their things. they did not even ask their CEO for confirmation if they need to leave.

gentlemen. we'll proceed later.

richard looked at his wife, and from the look of her beautiful face, he knows what this is all about. and this time he will be firm about it.

one by one, the finance team exited the room. they even greeted mrs. faulkerson who is now standing at the door with her hands crossed on her chest while looking intently at her husband.

once the room has just the two of them. maine started to rant while walking towards the seat richard is occupying

why the hell did you decline that offer?!?!

richard kept a cool demeanor. he knew she will be pissed. but this time he can't say yes.

because i can he answered timidly

what do you mean because you can?! can you please give me a good reason!!! a rational reason why you declined the offer?!?! oh she's still fuming
