Seigfred cancelled the call of Rhoda. When she tried to call again, Seigfred again rejected it; until Rhoda became tired of calling and stopped pestering him.
Seigfred was able to breathe when Rhoda stopped calling his mobile phone. He shook his head with disgust. But before his good mood will be ruined, he decided to do something that will make him more excited the whole day.
Seigfred called his personal assistant and gave her further instruction. “Chona, have the flowers delivered here in the office. I will personally bring them to Atty. Yher’s office this afternoon.”
Chona giggled as she heard her Boss’ instruction. “Wow, that would be wonderful Sir. Atty. Yhera would likely appreciate that more.”
“Yes Chona. Thank you for that.” Seigfred smiled at the woman before dismissing her and motioning
I When Atty. Yhera glanced at Seigfred who is now walking to her side, she saw the narrowing eyes of him and his fierce look at Jethross. Suddenly, Atty. Yhera disengaged from the embrace of Jethross and acted like clearing her lungs. “By the way Jethross, meet my fiancé, Seigfred; Sweety this is Jethross.” Atty. Yhera’s introduction to the two men that made Jethross face turned to ashen. Seigfred looked at Jethross intensely while extending his right hand, offering a handshake to Jethross. Looking at Seigfred, a little intimidated, Jethross took his offered hand and shook it gently. Atty. Yhera broke the silence. “Jethross, nice seeing you. If you ple
I Seigfred and Atty. Yhera happily returned to Seigfred’s red Jaguar car after devouring their big burgers, fries and shake. “Hah, I’m full Sweety.” Seigfred said laughing while caressing his stomach. Atty. Yhera laughed too as she put her hand around his right arm. “Me too Sweety, I forgot my diet for tonight you know.” “And I only paid around Seven Hundred pesos for all of those. Whoaahh, what a great deal for getting full like this.” Seigfred, still laughing, guided her hand on his arms round around his waist and then he put his right arm around her shoulders as they walked to his red Jaguar Car. Except for a little traffic on the way, they we
I The next day, Seigfred was shocked to know that Rhoda almost killed herself when she swallowed a number of sleeping drugs. She was overdosed. Good thing, their Mayordoma knocked on her door to ask her if she still wanted to have dinner, since she does not take any food the whole afternoon until dinner time. It was Rhoda’s father who informed Seigfred and even asked Seigfred if he knows something that is bothering her daughter. Of course, Seigfred has been dumbfounded. His only answer to the father of Rhoda was that he did not know. Seigfred somehow felt guilty. “Would it be that it was because of me that Rhoda almost killed herself?” he murmured. Later however, Seigfred thought it to be too conceited to think that it was because of him that Rhoda committed suicide. He was
ITwo weeks have passed and the wedding of Atty. Yhera and Seigfred are already fast approaching. Atty. Yhera has mixed feelings of excitement & joy, unexplained butterflies in her stomach but more so of nervousness, anxiety, crankiness, and fear.Excitement is evident on one hand to Atty. Yhera’s Mom and sister, so with her officemates.Seigfred is always in his good mood. There is no one moment that excitement left him. If only he could make time run faster to make their wedding day happen now, he will. That is how sure and confident he is with his love for Yhera. She is the woman for him and no one else.No one ever thought that two days before their wedding, Seigfred would be gone, mis
I It was the gloomiest day for Atty. Yher the next day; she hasn’t slept that long thinking about what happened to Seigfred. She immediately alighted from the bed and dressed-up. When she went out of the room, she already saw her Mom, sister, Tony and Buddy all dressed-up sipping their morning coffees. “Yher come, have some coffee before we go.” It was her Mom who invited her. She approached them and made her own coffee silently. “Yher, let us visit the Italian Restaurant where Seigfred was last seen.” Tony suggested. Yhera nodded. “Yes, I am planning to do that Tony; I will check their CCTV footage.”
I Atty. Yhera asked the IT guy to replay the CCTV footage again and then she burst out. “Someone was inside the car already before Seigfred got inside!” Mommy Lily together with Buddy and Tony and the Restaurant Manager quickly approached Atty. Yhera and checked the CCTV footage too. “Look at that; the door in the driver side was a little open when Seigfred held the door and he suddenly stopped and froze for a while before getting inside with an obvious reluctance.” Atty. Yhera explained, pointing on the part in the CCTV footage that she was referring to. “You are right Yher, I noticed it too.” Tony seconded, so with Buddy and Mommy Lily. The Restaurant Manager also nodded.
IOn the day of their supposed wedding Atty. Yhera felt like suffering from an undying agony. Her heart was numb and her mind was blank. She caressed her lovely wedding gown, which she took from its box and laid it down on her bed. She also took the complete groom's suit from its box and put it beside her wedding gown, imagining Seigfred wearing it.Tears freely fell down from Atty. Yhera's eyes. "Today is our wedding day Seigfred, where are you my love?" she asked, sobbing. This should be her most exciting and happy day but all of a sudden it turned out to be her most hurting and her saddest moment.She laid herself on the bed beside Seigfred's suit and embraced it as if it was Seigfred. She wanted to feel him even through his suit."Ho
IBased on the gathered information of Atty. Yhera’s NBI friend, Conrad Zhang, Rhoda’s ex-boyfriend, is a 26-year-old, car racer and the illegitimate son of a wealthy Chinese businessman. He has been involved in numerous troubles. He has been once imprisoned when caught having a pot session inside a club during a buy-bust operation. He was fined for overspeeding and been blootered for allegedly punching a waiter in a restaurant in Makati City.“He is an ill-tempered idiot,” Atty. Yhera murmured when she finished reading the report about Conrad Zhang.Atty. Yhera’s suspicion grew more about Rhoda’s ex-boyfriend. If that man was capable of doing those past troubles and /or crimes, it was highly possible that out of his jealousy and bad temperament, he killed Rhoda and most probably Seigfred, with whom Rhoda has publicly declared obsession.
