Don't Mess with the Bad Girl (BOOK2)- ON GOING

Chapter 4

KAYLEE GONZALES' POV

"You have a phone call Ms. Kaye" bungad sakin ni Alys pagpasok na pagpasok niya sa opisina ko. Inabot ko ang cellphone at itinapat sa tenga ko at ipinagpatuloy ang pagpirma ng kung ano anong dokumento.

"Hello? Who is this?" I asked in a mumble way.

[Good afternoon Ms. Kaye, This is Zendrick Olivio from Z.O Enterprise] sagot nito. Napatigil naman ako sa ginagawa ko at napasandal na lang sa aking inuupuan.

"Oh yes Mr Olivio, Good afterrnoon. What makes you call?" I can't hide my smile while saying those words. Even though I already knew the reason, I still want to hear it from him.

[I heard about what happened yesterday and I genuinely want to say sorry about that. I had an emergency and I badly needed my oldest son. My apologies] narinig ko naman ang sinseridad sa boses niya. The hell, he can't manipulate me. I know him too well

"There's nothing to worry about Mr. Olivio. Oh by the way..." tumayo ako mula sa pagkakaupo ko at humarap sa glass wall ng opisina.

"I just want to formally invite you to my welcome party. I want to meet other businessmen and women. You know, just to cope up and bond with them" I chuckled a bit before continuing "I also want to discuss the business investment and other transactions that I'm planning to."

"That's a pleasure Ms. Kaye. Expect our presence there" we exchanged our goodbyes before ending up the call.

"Inform the manager of our resort in Batangas to temporarily close the services. I want to held my party there" utos ko kay Alys. I already done with all my meetings and order business schedule kaya ito naman naman ang pinagtuunan ko ng pansin. I want my party to be glamorous and extravagant.

"Bohemian would be the centerpiece of the party. Make me a list of recommended party and catering services. Did you note that Alys?"

"Yes madam" at ipinakita ang maliit na notebook sakin.

It's already 4pm nang mapagdesisyunan kong umalis ng opisina para puntahan ang kotseng binili ko. Black Lamborghini Aventador ang napili ko para in case na may racing, makaka-join ako. It was my pastime when I was in Omaha kaya sanay na 'ko mag-drive ng sports car.

After that, I checked the condominium unit. Medyo malayo kasi ang bahay sa opisina kaya napagpasyahan kong bumili na lang ng condo. Nakakuha naman ako ng discount dahil Z.O Enterprise ang mayari. Well, I don't need a discount but they insisted. The size of the unit is fine. Tamang tama lang para sakin furnitures na lang ang kulang.

3 days lang ang binigay kong palugid sa mga empleyado ko para ayusin ang venue sa Batangas. Time is important to me kaya dapat lang na bilis bilisan nila ang kilos.

"I'm on my way" ibinaba ko ang tawag at dere-deretsong sumakay sa kotse. I have a meeting with the catering manager. I research about their catering businesses at madami silang nakukuhang magagandang feedbacks.

Pagdating ko sa restaurant ay wala pa ang kikitain ko kaya umorder muna 'ko. I hope na hindi siya ma-late ng 5 mins dahil kapag nangyari 'yon ay ica-cancel ko talaga ang transaction at hahanap ng ibang caterer. Good thing dahil dumating na siya.

"I'm sorry for making you wait---- Kaylee?"

"Pardon?" I saw her eyes blinked so many times at parang nanigas pa siya sa kinatatayuan niya

"Omg Kaylee ikaw nga-----" she stopped when Geli approached us.

"Oh Kaye, you're here na agad ha!" nakipagbeso ako sa kaibigan ko bago inilipat ang tingin niya sa catering manager. Bahagya naman napaawang ang bibig ni Geli pero binawi niya  ito agad.
