The Soul's Liberation [Mr. Hot Billionaire](Completed)

Chapter 27

Fliory

Curiousity got the best of me.

Tulala akong nakatingin sa bintana ng restaurant na pinuntahan namin. Abala siya sa paghiwa ng steak na in-order niya.

"Eat up," he said.

"What are you gonna tell me?" I ask impatiently. I'm not here to eat.

"You ask me," sagot niya.

I've been wondering about this one for a long time. Maybe he could answer.

"Do---" Kinagat ko ang labi ko at huminga ng malalim. I am fully aware that I'm crossing the line. I am sure he's not gonna like it but I want to know him. pero ano nalang sasabihin sa akin ni Magnus kapag nagkataong masagot ng matandang 'to ang tanong ko. What if it's a big secret he's not really ready to share with me. Just like how I don't want to share my past with him. This will be so unfair.

"Do what?" I snap out of my thoughts when I heart his voice.

I bit my lips and mustered the courage to ask. "Do you know why Magnus is taking a revenge? For whom? How did he end up doing the revenge?"

His smile stretched widely. It's as if I said the right question.

"I had a daughter. Her name is Sarah and she fell in love with this man named Magnus." I knew from that moment, I should buckle up. I knew he's about to drop bombs that would definitely injure me.

"Magnus fell in love with my daughter, but unfortunately, she was killed. And Magnus swear to catch those bastards. He's avenging someone he loves." It's the moment I know, I entered a losing game.

"You love a man who's loving someone else."

It was the moment I realize, my feelings isn't just deep. It's love. I love Magnus. I love him.

I blink my eyes so many times to stop the tears and to breathe in carefully to push down the choking feeling inside my thoat.

It makes sense to me now. Why he feel lost while making revenge. Why he look so sad. Why he looks tired. Because who wouldn't. Hunting someone for the justice you want for your lover.You'll be exhausted. Trying to find answers for someone who died, not to mention, that person is someone you love.

It felt as if this smal string that I try to hold onto snapped so hard it has infured my heart, and it's bleeding but I have no way of stopping it. I did this to myself. I put too much trust, too much patience.

Tumingin ako sa matanda at ngumiti.

"Thank you for the information. I really appreciate it."

Tumayo ako at naglakad paalis. He followed me emmidiately.

I feel really, really stupid and somehow, used.

"I'll send you home," he offered and I nodded

The whole ride I wasn't talking. I was thinking.

It doesn't feel right that he kept me while he has Sarah. I stayed there like a stupid person that I am while he do things for Sarah. I feel used and hurt and lost.

Ni hindi ko na alam kung paano pa ako nakapaglakad papasok sa gate ng bahay ni Magnus. Pagpasok sa maindoor, Jax saw me first.

"Fliory," Jax mumbled.

Magnus who's back is turned to me while holding a phone look back to see me standing there. He went to me fast and gave me a hug.

"Shit... Are you ok?" tarantang sabi niya pagkatapos akong yakapin. He was holding my face with his hands, he was checking me. "Dinx told me umalis ka kasama si Sutton. Where did he take you?" Hindi ako sumagot. I was staring at him, checking him out. How could you keep such thing to me?
