Her Raging Flame Chapter 41
I immediately started to maneuver my Ford Mustang when Luther lowered the race flag. Cholo did not give up and his Porsche also fired up and accompanied me on the race track.We have a close fight. There are times when he overtakes me, but I easily get the advantage again.I grinned when he lowered the window and shouted at me. "Dude, just chill! Don't take it too seriously! You might even burn your car. You'll have to pay me for that!""Keep on dreaming, man!" I shouted back.I changed my gears and accelerated my speed. Just a few turns and downs before we see the finish line. In the distance, I saw Luther sitting on the ground while taking pictures. The guy is into photography these days. Tomorrow, maybe his hobby will be different.Just another lap is remaining before the finish line, so I'm comfortable that I'll win. Cholo is close behind me, but I can still widen our gap.The ringing tone of my cellphone on the dashboar

"So what do you think, Lagma? Do you accept my proposal?"He just watched me from his while leaning on the swivel chair. His face didn't change even a bit when I told him about the proposal.Finally he stood up, lit a cigarette and went back to his seat in his lavish office in a high-rise building."I'll just repeat what you said earlier because I may be deaf. Maybe it's an effect of my few days staying at the construction site." He inhaled the smoke and puffed it to the side. "You want me to release Trisha in your place. You want to take your sister's place in exchange for her freedom, am I right?"I smiled at him and folded my arms. "Right. You got it too. So? What do you think? Besides, I really should be your target, right? Not Trisha."He emitted smoke again, this time on my face. I covered my nose."Yup, it's a very good proposal, I must admit. But I can't trade anything for you

As we were on our way to the airbase, I could feel the distance between the two of us. She is on the far side of the car seat while I was on the other. None of us talked to each other during the drive until we reached the destination. Almost at the same time we also got off and walked near the runway.Behind us were my men who were positioned in their places. I also have a security force all over the place in case the worst happens.I'm still angry at her for what she had decided to do without even saying it to me. And I will never allow her to do what she wants to happen. I have no intention of prolonging our quarrel today. I just wanted to give ourselves some space to think things out. What I can guarantee is the fact that there's definitely no break-up that will happen."Even if you reject me now, I'll still tell you the whole story about the past. I don't care if you don't want to listen. It's now or never, Mav."I slightly turned to Feme

Her eyebrows were raised and a fake smile was playing on her lips when I greeted Trisha. I breathed a sigh of relief to see that she was in good condition. In fact, she got a lot better than I remembered her years ago. It looks like Lagma takes good care of her because her beautiful complexion, hair, and expensive clothes cannot be mistaken.Who would have thought that she was kidnapped? It's like she's just coming back from an out of the country vacation.She looked at me sharply as I stopped in front of her."I see that you look well," I said and looked at her from head to toe.She reciprocated by also looking over me. "Why did you just let me out now? Eight years, Femella! You left me for eight years! It's good that you even thought of making a way to save me. I thought I was going to rot inside," she said in an annoyed tone.I crossed my arms and gave her a bored look. "You still haven't changed. Try harder, Trisha

That’s when my senses flared up. Danger. This man spells danger. He raised his hand and brought the cigarette he was holding to his mouth. He blew off the smoke but I didn't feel any sort of repulsion. Instead, I viewed it as sexy just like my sister who is looking dreamily at him.A knot formed in my stomach. Jealousy struck me like lightning.I knew immediately what was happening based on my reaction. I just had a crush on my twin sister's boyfriend.I went straight home after that and just ordered take out food from a fastfood chain."Femella, is your sister home already?" Manay Letty asked me when she passed me sitting on the sofa in the living room. "It's almost seven o'clock. There's no class today because it's Saturday.""I don't know. Maybe she did some projects or whatever," I lied."Is that so? All right, I'll pick her.up from her classmates I know. Are you hungry already? Do you want me to cook for you?"

"Sir, Ms. Trisha is outside. She said she wants to talk to you," Christine informed me when I answered the phone.I put down the cell phone I had been staring at. It was a photo of Fem and I with our tongues out. She insisted on taking it after we failed in attempting to bake some cookies. Flour was all over our faces while we posed for a shot. I never knew it would be our last memory together. After that stint in the airbase, she disappeared like a bubble without even a single trace. It's been two weeks and I can't reach her. No calls and no texts.I went home on my pad with a hollow feeling. No one will meet me to argue with me on why she can't complete the puzzles. No more snoring every night and I no longer have someone I can debate with anything under the sun.All because of something I don't know."What is it that she wants this time? Tell her I'm busy."I shook my head remembering Femella's sister. Trisha has been insisting to get

"Femella ..."I bit my lip and closed my eyes when I heard the baritone voice behind me. I want to stand up and greet him with an eager hug. I also endured a week of not seeing him or hearing his voice. I've been dying to see him and be close to him like what we used to be but everything's changed now. The one he truly loves is back so I have no more space in their lives.I slowly stood in front of Maverick whose face was now full of longing."Fuentebella, I'm glad you're here. You may take a seat."His face got confused with the tone I used. I uttered the words so coldly and without any emotion like we did not know each other.It was hard for him to sit in the chair and just stare at me. I went back to sitting and took the wine glass and brought it to my mouth. The alcohol helped a little to calm the nerves in my body.I carefully set the glass down on the table and looked around the elegant restaur

I looked up from the papers I'm reading when I heard a knock on the door. I saw Christine reluctantly standing in the doorway. I didn't even realize she's been there the whole time."What is it Christine?" I said before immediately returning the focus to what I was doing."Ahm sir, can I go home now? I already asked for your permission earlier so that I'll be out by nine."I glanced at the watch. I didn’t even notice the passage of time."Go ahead. Just make sure to submit first thing in the morning, the minutes of the meeting with Mr. Kazuki." I picked up the mug of coffee while I'm still busy reading but I put it down when I realized it's empty. I was about to get up to make another cup but Christine immediately approached me and took the mug."I'll do it sir."I just nodded.She laid the steaming coffee on the table minutes after."Thank you," I said after taking a sip. "You may go.""Ahm s
