Sweet Escape (Trilogy #1)

  CHAPTER 1 ADDISON's POV   A loud ring of my phone filled the whole meeting room. Napatingin ang lahat sa akin nang tingnan ko ang cellphone ko. It's an unregistered phone number, sino kaya 'to at paano niya nalaman ang number ko. Only Bao know my number—   Wait... Baka ibinigay na naman niya sa kung sinu-sino ang number ko kaya naman ay buwan-buwan ako nagpapalit ng sim card to avoid unknown callers. At ngayon, meron na naman?!   I decided to answer the call para naman humingi ng paumanhin. Tumingin muna ako sa mga ka board meeting ko bago sa boss ko at nagpaalam.   "Excuse me for a while," sabi ko at tinanguan niya lang ako.   Pagkadating ko sa labas ng meeting room ay agad akong nagsalita.   "Sorry for—" a voice of a kid cut my words.   "Mommy!" Matinis na sigaw ng isang bata sa kabi

CHAPTER 3   ADDISON's POV KASALUKUYAN kong sinisermonan si Wayzz sa may kusina nang may matinis na boses ang sumigaw mula sa aming likuran kaya naman ay mabilis ko itong nilingon. Of course, it was no other than my son. I took a breath before smiling at him.   "Mommy! We have a guest, we have a guest," masigla niyang sabi habang tumalon-talon. I pat his head as he guided me towards his so-called 'guest'. My eyes widen as I saw the guest, it's Mr. Shen.   "Mr. Shen, anong ginagawa mo dito?" I tried to ask casually and he stood up, fixing his messed tuxedo.   "I'm here to visit Bao." He paused and looked at my back. I suddenly feel Wayzz's presence. "And what is he doing here? Gabing-gabi na, so disturbing." Halata sa gwapo niyang mukha ang inis kaya naman hindi ko napigilang ngumiti. He looks so cute— wait, what?! Why am I thinking of those thoughts?   Pal

Chapter 5 ADDISON's POV "THANK YOU for listening to my presentation," sabi ko nang matapos na akong magpresenta sa kanila. It's Friday supposed to be, day-off ko ngayon and then something happened. "Thank you too, Ms. Takeshi for that wonderful presentation of yours. You know, you are beautiful." I blushed a bit kasi hindi naman ako sanay makatanggap ng papuri sa iba. "T-Thank you po," nahihiyang sagot ko kay Mr. Davis. "Your beauty should be exposed to everybody, dapat hindi mo 'yan tinatago." "Actually, she's an actress. Female second lead and stuntwoman is usually her role," biglang sabat ng boss ko habang

Chapter 07 - Regrets   A/N: Hi guys, I don't if there's someone reading my novel but if there is one, I hope you'll make it 'till the end of this story of mine. Mabuhay! I am Margarita and I just want to thank you all for reading this story even though ang tagal kong mag-update. So I will change the type of view, from the first-person view to the third-person view maybe starting this chapter. So I hope you will still support an underrated writer like me. God Bless and thank you! ***   "Are you sure about this, Addi?" Her boss asked for the third time, making sure if her decision is really final. Napag-isipan ni Addison na mag-resign sa kompanyang kasulukuyang pinagtatrabahuan niya dahil bukod sa malayo ito sa apartment niya, hindi din sapat ang sweldo niya dito. Let's just say na malaki nga talaga ang sweldo sa kompanya ni Zeus kompara sa iba but the thought of working Zeus' company makes her feel unease and guilty. Because

  Chapter 09   "I don't want to publicize our relationship once I sign that contract. Once I sign that contract, walang pakealaman. Second, I don't want anyone to know that we are having a relationship--"   "Anong pinagkaiba nun sa unang sinabi mo?" Salubong ang kilay na sabi ni Liandre.   "Magkaiba 'yun! I don't want anyone to know and by that, 'wag kang maglalapit sa akin, don't talk or even look at me. I don't want to rumors about you and me--"   "Sa ibang lalaki, okay lang sayo na magka-issue ka?" Kinunotan niya ito ng noo. Anong problema ng lalaking 'to?   "Hindi sa ganun
