"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 youBab terkait
Her Raging Flame Chapter 43
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

"Femella, are you really sure with your decision? Maybe we can change it? Is there nothing to lose?" the surprised Chino asked when he heard what I told Vida that I was leaving this afternoon. He had just come out of the toilet and was in the midst of washing his hands. There were still residues of foam in his hand."I'm sure about it, Chino. My time has come to retire. You're alone again to fantasize about yummy abs at the club." I regretted saying it then looked at Vida who was sitting on the floor like me.I called them to say goodbye properly. Chino was also in his apartment so I told him to stay here. I want to personally say goodbye to the man who made my time at La Vida fun and tolerable.I had already packed up my bags ready to leave. My suitcases are already in the trunk of my old car. I really just went here to say goodbye."Or maybe Adam's descendants won't even look at me anymore. We know they're just trying to pay

"Why did you come back? Man, you should have stayed there forever in your cave. It was so much fun here when you were gone."I threw a crumpled paper at Luther, who was sitting on the edge of the desk and tampering with the stacked papers."You're just happy because you're free to flirt with my secretary. I heard from Ivan that you're starting your dark plan. I'm warning you, man. Leave Christine alone. She's like my sister. Don't line her up with your women. "I signed the finalized design for the capsule hotel that Luther and I would be building."Woah! You're really a different person now, man. You seem to be a saint now. Looks like Femella did something good to you other than break your heart."My hand stopped on its own at the mention of the woman's name. Our separation still hurts me until now. I sighed and diverted the conversation."It looks like we're going to have a problem with the acquisition of some properties. A few
