Lahat ng Kabanata ng My Hottie Boss: Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

CALIX and I hadn’t talked that much when we left the Del’Torre Corp. He didn’t bother to ask if I’m okay or not. I let out a few sighs and completely closed my arms because I seemed to be deaf to his silence earlier.“What do you want to eat for our late lunch?” He stared at me, so I sit properly. Then I looked down at my wristwatch. It was past one in the afternoon, so I could feel my stomach boiling.“Anything,” I replied.I just let him take me wherever he wants to, and we headed to a famous restaurant.I want to smile because this is my first time eating out with Calixto. If this can be said, I was probably the happiest woman in the world.But again, a deafening silence broke out between us as we ate. I reluctantly leaned back in my chair and drank the juice, which I immediately lowered, so that made a slight noise.My lips twitched as he caught my attention. “Don’t you like you

I WAS suddenly startled when my cellphone rang again. “Hello?” “Hey, babe.” I immediately peeked at the registered number before I became very quiet. Why didn’t I look at who was calling first?! “Please, Rexon, not now,” I murmured. “Be at my house tomorrow at eight in the morning,” he ordered. “What? No! Who says I agree with what you want, huh?!” I answered bluntly. “I do,” he countered back. I rolled my eyes and rubbed my head in pain. “I said, no! I will never be your personal assistant. Isn’t it enough that you used me just to get through your issue?” “That is why I’m here to help you.” “Well, I don’t need your help,” I said firmly. He paused for a moment on the other line before speaking again. “I’ll wait for you ’til 10.” After that, he dropped the call. I just sighed and got up to continue buying coffee. *** “Dad, you must be strong so that you can recover quickly,

“OMG! Tell me that this is just a dream?!” Jacky held me on both shoulders as her eyes widened while looking at me.I rolled my eyes at her because I almost lacked the excitement I felt when I recounted what Rexon and I had discussed earlier.“This is really unbelievable! Is it true that you will be Rexon Del’Torre’s P.A.? The heartthrob of my life? My prince charming? The one who will fulfill my dreams and fill my cold nights?” She looked up while her two hands clasped as if she’s dreaming.“I still didn’t accept the offer, and stop fantasizing about him! You don’t deserve a man like him, just find someone else who will fulfill your fantasy because I know the intestinal coil of such people!”“There is nothing wrong if I like him, ’cause even if I am just one of his women, I will be. How about you? Did he not even cross your mind?” Trembling again by her words as if she sw

I WAS SO EXCITED to go to the hospital to tell Dad the good news. I hurried inside the ICU with a broad smile on my face.“Miss Banaag, it’s good that you’re here. I have good news for you. Any moment now, the operation can be done on your father,” the doctor said to me and held my hand tightly.I immediately glanced at Dad. I’m sure he’ll be happy when he finds out that Calixto helped us with his operation.“Thank you, Doc.”“By the way, did you already talk to Mr. Del’Torre?”My broad smile faded as I turned to her in astonishment.“Mr. Del’Torre? Why?”“Didn’t he tell you? I’m glad that he paid all the expenses for your father’s operation, as well as the payment for all the medicines.”My eyes widened at what she said.“Haven’t you talk to him? He just left my office a while ago.” Confusi

I HELD Dad’s hand tightly as we crossed the hallway to the operating room. I just stopped and just stared at him from the closed door.My tears fell out of fear and anxiety. “Uncle will surely be fine.” I felt Jacky’s warm palm on my shoulder.“Yes, he will,” I convinced myself. I sat in the waiting area and folded my hands before closing my eyes firmly. I haven’t slept for almost two days since the doctor told me that Dad’s operation will start today. I watched Dad almost every night while they’re checking his vitals.Relax, a voice whispered in my mind, so I took a deep breath. Yeah, that’s what I should do now. Relax, Cherry. I’ll bend over and pray really hard.My father’s surgery will take eight hours or more, so Jacky and I decided to eat at the cafeteria first while waiting. I haven’t eaten since this morning because my system doesn’t wan
