Defending Mr. Billionaire || R-18+ When can we say that a person is worth defending? When he is already accused? When he already received a death threat? When he has money? When he's already dead? Ako, hindi ko alam. All I know is that I don't care about him. I don't care about that freakin' billionaire. Even if they made me his lawyer, I will not and will never defend him. Hindi ko gagamitin ang aking propesyon bilang isang abogado para lang ipagtanggol ang isang siraulong katulad niya. Pero kung para sa kapatid ko naman, ibang usapan na 'yan. Kapag natapos ang kaso na 'to ay magkakahiwalay na rin kami ni Anthony at pipilitin kong hindi na siya makita muli. I just need this one-time big-time chance for my brother. Pero paano kung magbago ang lahat? Paano kung ma-realize ko na mahal ko pa pala siya? Paano kung sa huli ay kami pa rin pala para sa isa't isa? "When will I start defending you, Mr. Billionaire?"

Lihat lebih banyakこの世界のどこかに、アヒルたちが平和に暮らしている国がありました。その国の名前はアヒル帝国。とてもやさしい皇帝アヒルが治めている国です。そんな国の外れ、カラス王国との国境付近の森に、1羽で住んでいる変わり者のアヒルがいました。名もなきアヒルはある日、森の中で小さな小さなカラスの子どもと出会いました。これは変わり者だけどやさしいアヒルさんと、小さな小さなカラスの子どもの楽しい日常のお話です。
さてさてカラスの子どもを自宅に連れ帰ったアヒルさんですが、まずなにをすればいいのかわかりません。アヒルさんにはつがいはおらず、もちろん子育ての経験もありません。ともかくカラスの子どもが弱っていることはわかるので、どこかケガをしていないか調べることにしました。 あちこちきょろきょろ。あちこちさわさわ。あちこちツンツン。特にケガはなさそうです。喉が渇いているのかもしれない。アヒルさんはグラスに水を注ぐと、カラスの子の口元に差し出します。でもカラスの子に飲む元気はないみたい。困ったアヒルさんはグラスにストローを差し、そのストローの先端をカラスの子のくちばしに差し込んでみました。すると弱々しくですが、カラスの子は水を吸ってくれました。お水を飲んで少し落ち着いたのか、カラスの子の呼吸が穏やかになり、アヒルさんもひと安心です。 次はなにかを食べさせた方がいいだろうか。アヒルさんは考えます。とりあえずお庭に出ると立派なリンゴの木からひとつ実をもいでくると、皮ごとすりおろしてみました。それを木でできたスプーンでカラスの子のくちばしの中にいれてみます。カラスの子はゆっくりとですがリンゴを飲み込みました。そうしてリンゴを食べさせ終わると、アヒルさんはカラスの子を自分のベッドに寝かせました。その顔を心配そうに覗き込みながらその夜は更けていくのでした……。OH, SORRY. I've had enough.Nang saktong pagbukas ng elevator ay bigla akong nagsalita nang malakas. The two from behind were shocked and all of the other employees couldn't even move. Si Anthony naman ay nakatingin sa akin at nagulat. "Ah, wait. I forgot to turn off my audio recorder."Humarap ako sa kanilang lahat at matalim na tiningnan ang babaeng makapal ang mukha. Pinaalis na ni Anthony ang ibang nandito sa loob pero hindi niya pinalabas ang dalawang babaeng pinagchi-chismisan ako. Nakatingin lang ito sa amin at tila natatakot sa kung anong pwedeng mangyari sa kanila.Well, as they should. Narecord ko lahat ng mga kasinungalingang ipinakakalat nila. And it's recorded."Aren't you going to say something?" I asked them, still controlling my temper. Dapat lang na mag-sorry sila dahil hindi nakakatuwa ang mga sinabi nila. I usually don't give a fuck lately, but what they have just said pushed me into this. It's not as if I'm going to make them go to jail in an instant. "I mean, I re
"Inagaw niya sa akin si Anthony, ex-fiance ko. Sigurado akong kilala mo 'yon. Kalat na yung gwapo niyang mukha sa buong Asya."Napalunok ako sa sinabi nito. "Wait, inagaw sayo noong Christine na sinasabi mo?"Tumingin lang ito sa akin at natawa. "No, just kidding. As if Anthony became mine. Hindi naging akin si Anthony. He's always thinking about that damn Christine so I became like this. My obsession towards Anthony drove me into this."Huminga ako nang malalim at sinubukang lumapit sa kaniya. Mukha namang hindi siya nananakit kaya sinubukan kong lumapit. She even held my hand and massage it. "May galit ka ba sa kaniya?""Kay Christine?" she said and smiled. Patuloy lang ito sa paghilot sa aking kamay habang nakatingin sa kawalan. I felt like she's been alone here for weeks already. "No, I'm not angry at her at all. Wala naman siyang kasalanan. Kahit si Anthony wala ring kasalanan.""But they still hurt your feelings." I said and caressed her back. Isinandal nito ang kaniyang ulo sa
"I thought we'll be on it." I heard Anthony softly complained and heaved a heavy sigh. He's still cuddling me even though I know that he's a little bit disappointed. Nakayakap din ito sa akin habang ramdam ko ang init ng kaniyang hininga sa kaniyang batok. This moment was kinda romantic even though there's no scented candles around, just the study lamp on the table beside us."Sorry." I said and hugged his arm on me even more. "I'm really not in the mood. Inaantok na rin ako."He chuckled and held my hand. "You must be very tired. I love you. Try to sleep."I really feel sorry because I couldn't make it up to him right now. When we were about to start earlier, I stopped from removing my lungeries and made him just lay down beside me. He was confused at first until I told him that I don't wanna continue anymore. We just cuddled and he agreed.Though, I convinced him.I couldn't help but smile from what he had said. Humarap ako rito't hinalikan siya saglit. We were now facing each other
"No, send that tax receipt to Michelle since she's the tax lawyer. Forget about the other legal matters there. I'm taking care of that right now."After I said that over the phone, I put it down immediately to focus on my tasks. I don't know why they want me to take care of the tax receipts when I'm not the tax lawyer.I now work as the general business lawyer and the contract lawyer of Rivamonte Hotel. Yes, I currently work for Anthony at his hotel. 2-in-1 ang trabaho ko dahil bukod sa kaya ko naman, I have to work double to gain money. Hindi pwedeng puro asa na lang ako kay Mama lalo na kay Anthony.I have to work for my needs. Ilang buwan na lang ang itatagal ng savings ko. Baka umabot sa time na wala na akong maipa-sweldo kina Kuya Caesar at Ate Sising.Kahit na nandito ako sa loob ng bahay ay nakakapag-focus pa rin naman ako sa trabaho. The room beside my bedroom, which was Jelsey's room two years ago, was turned into my home office. Everything was set up, thanks to Ate Sising an
Severina nodded and smiled bitterly while she was looking at her photos on the screen. "This was the consequence that I got after I helped you free Sandoval. Bright warned me about this. This was the piece of information that he kept on using to blackmail me until I spoke the truth to the court room that day. That son of a bitch really destroyed my modelling career.""Si Bright pa rin ba ang nasa likod ng mga ito? Nagsilutangan ulit ang mga litrato mo, Severina." I asked. Napailing-iling na lang ako't iniisip kung ano na lang ang dinanas ni Severina para malagpasan ang mga ito."Who knows? Only God knows if Bright is still the one behind this." Severina answered."Oh my God, I'm s-sorry for not being there with you back then, Severina. . .""You don't have to be sorry, Christine." she told me and held my hand which was on the table. "You did the right thing to free Sandoval. I also did the right thing just like you. The only problem here is the asshole who spreaded this photos from
Napatingin ito sa akin at ngumiti. She looked so shy even though we already met before. "Thank you! Y-You too.""Don't be so awkward in front of her, Katerina." pagsingit muli ni Jelsey pagkatapos humigop ng kape. "It's not as if you did a heinous thing behind our backs.""She must be sorry for what she did two years ago." pagsunod din ni Severina para asarin ang kapatid niya. "Well, triny lang naman niyang ilubog ang pangalan ni Sandoval sa isang bagay na 'di naman talaga niya nakita. What a bitch, right?" tanong nito sa akin.Natawa na lang ako't umiling. "Nakaraan na 'yan, h'wag mo nang asarin masyado ang kapatid mo, Severina" Tumingin naman ako kay Katerina't ngumiti. "It's okay now, Katerina. I heard that you defended yourself from the law suit filed against you two years ago, huh? Noong napatunayan mo namang inosente ka, nawalan na ako ng problema sayo."After I said that, she laughed and hugged me instinctively. Niyakap ko rin ito pabalik tapos pagkatapos ay nag-sorry ulit ito.
