Giovanni's Obsession

"You're really going to sue us, Ms. Fabian? As far as I know, you need me in this company. This is nothing without my presence."I was fascinated by the words of one of those stockholders who betrayed our trust and sabotaged us by giving our blueprints to our competitors and by holding most of the company's money in their own pockets. What a move."Look, Mr. Enriquez. This company doesn't need someone like you. You may be one of the billionaires out there, but your name is not known as mine. We both know that. Don't make table turns, sir. You are the one crawling to be here inside of my company, to be known and acknowledged by others, and so on to your company. Does it sound right?" I mimicked.His jaw clenched in an instant. I saw that coming, and I want more of it. I love it when I make them feel like they want to kill me. I wanted it when I saw how they wanted me out of this company. What a pathetic human being. They couldn't do that shit when my dad and sister were holding this l

"Oh my god! You're still alive! It's been said that when the grass is really bad, death doesn't pick it up!"I winced at Zari's greeting. As soon as I entered the condo, her eyes were wide, obviously from crying, because her arrow eyes got even narrower. The tip of her nose is also red; she looks like a tomato brunette."You're wishing me to be dead?" I tried to act so serious.I saw how she was stunned for a moment with a gasp."Are you stupid? Are you saying that? I'm crying for you, because there might be no more demons in my life. Do you know how worried I was about you when I saw the news on television?! God, I almost flew to you, but I stopped by Isaih! That damn policeman—I almost hit him so hard because of his sudden appearance!"My mouth was wide open when I heard that."You're almost going to me?"She nodded. "I'm driving, crying." She then poked me with her teary, cute eyes. "I was close to your office, and I was about to go down when suddenly someone knocked on my window.

"Is she still vomiting? I told you, she's really pregnant." I scratched my head and told Kuya Mateo while he was cooking soup for Ate Fayra.He looked at me for a moment. "I asked her right away when you told me that, but your sister just got angry. I almost got stoned when she threw me all of her lotions. She said maybe that's why I thought she was pregnant because she was fat, which is not true." The frustration in my brother-in-law's voice was obvious.I have also heard that sometimes from Ate Fayra. During my two-day stay with them, I witnessed how they argued because of Ate Fayra's assumptions, which were the opposite.Fayra didn't really gain weight; in fact, her body shape got better. She became more mature and curvaceous, which is why when we went out yesterday, Kuya Mateo almost shut down the whole mall because everyone was looking at his wife. I'll never forget the indescribable look on his face yesterday."You don't want to believe it yet. It's like you don't know Faith abo

"Giovanni can't be with you for today, so I'll pass you to Zarina first, so that Isaih can watch over you together. I'm just reminding you, Amira, before eight o'clock strikes, you should be at home.""I still beat the prisoner; I really need to get back to my condo. This is not normal anymore!"I almost roll my eyes a few degrees because of the annoyance I feel now. Just now I'm going back to the office; this is what I was instructed to do right away. I can beat the teenager if I'm given time when I get home. This is insane! My every move is limited.Zarina, I don't know how they could allow that girl to do that while I can't be allowed to do what I want in my life."If Giovanni were here, I wouldn't restrict you, Mira. But like I said, he can't join you today.""I told you that I can do it. You make me look like a child, and that's really annoying. I don't care about your friend, Mateo. Isaih is already there; you don't need to give me time because you know what my state is. I run a

"She's too far away from Francine, Amira. Why would you even let her in your company? She's a Mallari, Isaih's cousin, is that so?" "I didn't give her the position because of that, Zari. You're right, she's not even close to Francine's figure, but she's still got the skills I want. And it's not permanent; after Francine recovers from her trauma, I'll think of what place Annika should take. She can be my best asset too." "Best asset or best rival?" I stopped eating when I saw Annika trying to come close to Giovanni after Giovanni parked his car and went inside this restaurant. I look at them. Giovani's irritated face registers as he meets Annika at the entrance. In a glimpse, Annika circles her arms around Giovanni's arms and leads the way. It's been one week since I hired Annika as my temporary secretary. I reviewed her resume, even the little details she puts in it. She has a business management degree and has worked for a number of companies. She didn't even get fired once becaus
