Chapter 38

Chaster's POV

"What's wih the mood? Kanina pa nakangiti." Napatingin ako kay Celestine na kakapasok lang sa office. Naglagay siya ng baso ng kape sa table ko at umupo sa upuan sa harap.

"I am?" I asked her.

"Yeah? So, Finally? You're dating someone? Spill."

"Dating my ass." I said and giggled. "Have you seen Danny? She's not answering my calls."

"No. How about Lucas? Have you?" Tanong niya pabalik. Maybe, they're clearing things up together? I should trust Danny, she promised to me. She also needs time.

"Uhm, bat ka pala nandito?"

"Oh about that, Be responsible to your job. You missed the company party yesterday. Hindi mo alam kung anong nangyari kahapon. May meeting mamaya. You need to attend this time! Or you'll lose a client."

"I can't." I said directly.

"Woah? Are you really the future chairman of the Flores Group?" She sarcastically asked and raised her right eyebrow.

"I'm already leaving tomorrow. Let Lucas handle that. I also have to meet Danny tonight." I smirked.

"Well, your choice." Sabi niya at tumayo. Ngumiti siya sa akin at naglakad papuntang pinto.

"Uhm, Chaster."

"Oh? May sasabihin ka pa?"

"To be honest, I like the chemistry between you and Danny. More likely to become a couple soon? Or date someone else instead." She said and nodded.

"Tss, Couple of friends."

"Plus, Don't give her up."

"What do you know?" I hissed and laughed after she went out. Kinuha ko ang phone ko at tinext si panget. Hindi niya pa nababasa ang mga messages ko sa kaniya mula kahapon. It's weird. She always texts me back.

To: Panget

See you tonight.

Huminga ako ng malalim at tinuon ulit ang atensiyon ko sa ginagawa ko. I opened my email and I received a bunch of documents approval from Lucas.

"TURN OVER LETTER" I clicked the email and read all of his letters. I massaged my temple as I finished reading those.

"What the hell?" I murmured. He's going to turn over all of his property and position to me? Is he crazy?

Danny's POV

"Mommy!" Agad tumalon papunta sa akin si Lizette at saka ako niyakap ng mahigpit. Nagpark si Lucas ng kotse sa labas kaya hindi ko siya kasama.

"Danny? Akala ko ba kasama mo si Chaster sa business trip?" Tanong sa akin ni Ate Ynna.

"Don't tell Chaster that I'm here. Please." Seryosong sabi ko at dahan dahan naman siyang napatango. Binaba ko si Lizette at hinawakan ang kamay niya.

"Daddy!" Agad bumitaw sa akin si Lizette at tumakbo papunta kay Lucas na nasa pinto. Lumapit si Lucas sa amin at napatingin na lang ako kay Kuya.

"So you choose him again?" Tanong ni Kuya Sam sa akin pero hindi na lang ako sumagot.

"Dumaan kami para kunin si Lizette. Let's talk some other time. And about Chaster," pumikit ako at tumalikod na sa kanila.
