It all started with business greetings. Some speeches before telling everyone about the engagement. Pero bago paman sabihin ni Damon ang anunsyong 'yon, ramdam na ni Clara ang tingin ng mga babae sa kanya.

"And now... after spending some years being a slave of business, I would like to tell everyone that I am going to spend my remaining years with a beautiful woman, with a beautiful black dress named Clara Ardiente."

Clara's heart pounded like crazy. Lahat ng mata ay nasa kanya. The flashes and claps—that's all she can hear. Damon offered his hand to hold her. She smiled as Damon kissed her cheeks, making her stunned a bit.

'Ang galing talaga magkunwari ng isang ito' iyon ang nasa isip ni Clara nang halikan siya ni Damon. His hand held her waist.

Damon made some speech about her and how they met. Hindi na nag-abalang magsalita si Clara lalo na't alam niya naman na hindi lahat ng nakikinig ay naniniwala na nagmamahalan sila.

They know it. Businessman sila kaya alam nila ku

    Time ran so fast for Clara. Kanina lang ay mag-isa siya pero ngayon, kasama niya na si Damon habang nakalublob sa tubig. She closed her eyes as he tried to fill her legs with warm water. Hindi pa nakatulong ang aroma ng buong banyo. It was relaxing to go. Ito rin ang unang beses na tahimik silang magkasama kahit na gulong-gulo ang utak niya. "I am sorry that you need to witness that," Damon whispered. Clara, with a trembling soul and pounded heart was slightly confused about his words. "Witness what?" "The meeting." Ngumuso siya. "Well, I don't even know what to say. Kayo ang mas may nakakaalam tungkol sa pamilyang iyon. I just... don't want to put our company on edge. Ang kompanya nalang ang meron si Daddy." She sighed. "I know... you clearly told me about the terms of this marriage. Kahit na ikinasal tayo... alam kong wala pa rin ako sa posisyon para mangialam sa business decisions mo pero... I told you, I'll help my parents. I'll do everything to protect and help my family

    Clara sat beside Kenya and two other employees from the Accounting department. Ngumuso siya nang makita ang mahabang lamesa na pumapagitan sa kanila sa dulo ng board of directors. She saw Damon with his stoic face while reading some documents, tapos nasa gilid lang nito si Freya na seryoso rin. "The meeting will start in five minutes," Freya announced. "They're late?" Damon asked coldly. Tumikhim si Clara para pakalmahin ang sarili. Maraming malalaking tao sa loob ng conference room. Lahat sila ay may malaking parte sa kompanya kaya natural lang na kabahan siya. Sa company nila, hindi niya nasubukan na sumali sa mga meetings. "Oh, Damon..." An old woman looked at Clara. "Your wife is here!" Parang nagbunyi ang nasa loob ng conference room nang lingunin siya ng lahat, maliban ni Damon. Nailang tuloy siya at mas lalong nahiya. "She's part of the advertisement team." Damon said, without breaking the eyes on the paper. "It's nice to meet you! Huling kita ko sa iyo noong

    "Grey zone?"Tumayo si Damon at nilapitan si Clara. She managed to step back but Damon got her. Halos mabuwal siya sa kinatatayuan dahil sa hawak sa kanya ni Damon. "The VS Corp is having an illegal transaction off business. I don't want to stain my name." Napaisip si Clara sa sinabi ni Damon. Of course, that family wasn't part of the rags to riches. Villamontes has a high-powered meetings over champagne lunches. Kaya ganoon kayaman kasi may ginagawang 'di makatarungan. At kung ganoon nga ay maaring madamay ang kompanya nila kung totoo ang sinasabi ni Damon! But..."The deal will help our company." Diretso ang tingin niya kay Damon. Ganoon din si Damon. She pursed her lips but he suddenly reached for her chin and gave her a soft kiss. Uminit ang pisngi niya dahil talagang hahalikan siya sa gitna ng usapan nila. Damon chuckled. "Napapadalas ang pagtatalo natin... I wanted to kiss you so bad pero nauunahan ako ng mga issue mo." Clara glared at him. Natawa lang siya at pinatakan ulit n

    Clara sighed heavily as she tried to tell her husband about the favor. "Well... may nasabi siya sa akin na rejected proposal from the Villamontes." Damon's thick brows furrowed. "And uh... my father—" "Let me guess, the stupid Villamontes offered a partnership with your father," Damon cut her off. Napalunok siya at dahan-dahang tumango. "And your father asked you to tell me... hoping for reconsideration?" he said boredly. Medyo nagulat si Clara na hindi niya na pala kailangan i-explain sa asawa niya iyon. Well, matalino si Damon at magaling sa negosyo. Damon sighed. "I can't. Hindi nila maibibigay ang terms na hinihingi ko." Tumayo siya at tumingin sa salamin. He messed his hair and raked it softly bago nilingon si Clara. "I am not impressed. I am not convinced." "Bakit? Dahil sa tingin mo malulugi ka sa proposal nila? Nag-research ako sa kompanya nila. VS Corp is one of the list. Marami silang nakukuhang investors and for sure naman, kapag nakipag-partnership sila

  • Contract and Promises   Chapter 10: Favor

    "What?" Damon asked her wife while reading some papers. Clara got hired. Ginawa niya na ang gusto ng asawa kaya hindi niya maintindihan kung bakit sumugod ito sa opisina niya at masama ang tingin. "Talaga Damon? I know the reason why you choose that department! May purpose iyon!" He sighed. "Hmmm? Binigyan kita ng trabaho. What's the matter now?" Nasa gilid niya lang si Freya at tinatanggap ang mga dokyumento, tila walang pakialam kung nagtatalo ang dalawa. Clara almost glared at her. "Is it true? Pinalipat mo sa ibang department lahat ng boys?!" Clara laughed. "Why would you do that?" "Mas kailangan sila ng ibang department." "Oh, come on! And they didn't want me to work! Naii-intimidate silang utusan ako!" reklamo ni Clara sa kanya. "Parang naupo lang ako buong maghapon at walang ginagawa!" "It's their choice." "Dahil natatakot sila sa iyo!" Damon smirked. "I am not harming anyone, Clara. This is how I work. This is what I am when I am in my company. My employees

    Clara couldn't even smile back as she gave the black card to the girl. She experienced a twinge of guilt for doing this but... her mother told her to use it. Kakauwi lang nila galing honeymoon at agad siyang inambush ng kanyang ina. "Mom—" Her mother picked another designer bag. She took a step towards her. "Hija... I told you. Barya lang 'to kay Damon. You are married! You can use it!" She sighed. Iyon naman ang plano niya pero alam niyang hindi niya dapat iyon abusuhin. "What happened?" "Nothing. Sinabi ko lang sa kanya na gusto kong mag-trabaho." "Then?" Siyempre wala siyang nakuhang matinong sagot mula sa asawa. Damon wanted her to enjoy her life as his wife. Ito man ang gusto niya pero naisip niyang kailangan niyang mag-trabaho. Nagbago ang pananaw na iyon nang makilala niya ang pamilya ni Damon. Alam niyang hindi lang basta-basta mayaman ang mga Barreto. "Twenty-eight thousand and seven hundred pesos, Madame." Narinig niya ang sinabi ng babae. She sighed. I
