Semua Bab That First Night With Mr. CEO : Bab 51 - Bab 60

 Parang nabingi si Samantha sa sinabi ng kapatid. For a while she was left too stunned to speak from her brother’s revelation.A wife! His brother had a wife. And not just some woman but her own employee Natalie!How in the world did that happen? She doesn’t have any idea. This is one of the most shocking surprise she’s ever had for a while. And she can’t wrap her head around it just yet.She had always thought that her brother’s life is perfect—failure proof. Why wouldn’t she? Lucas always knows what to do. He is a leader—an admirable one. He plans everything—from the time he wakes up in the morning up to the dinner he’d have for the dinner of next week. He lives and breathes with schedules. And for the last four years, she had never ever seen her brother miss any of his planned endeavors. Kapag naka-plano, ‘yon ang ginagawa nito. And she had always thought that living a

 “Where exactly are we going?” hindi na napigilang tanungin ni Samantha kay Aaron.They have been flying for a few minutes now and at sigurado siya na nasa labas na sila ng Maynila. Nang hayaan niya itong igiya siya patungo sa chopper kanina, halos wala siyang reklamo. Well, that’s basically because she was busy composing herself. She almost melted from the inside out when she saw how handsome Aaron looked tonight. A thing she had rehearsed herself not to do before she went to see him.At dahil sablay siya agad sa unang task na sinabi niya sa sariling h’wag gagawin, inokupa ng takot ang isip niya sa maaaring mangyari sa mga susunod na oras na kasama niya ito.At ngayon na bahagya na siyang kumalma, ngayon lang niya naisip tanungin kung saan siya nito dadalhin.Bumaling ito sa kanya, ngumiti. “To my family’s home in Tagaytay,” anito.She inwardly groaned. Mukhang sablay na rin ang 2 to 3 hours t

 Aaron gently cupped her face with his hands and desperate need instantly spreaded all throughout Samantha’s body. She's slowly drowning with the anticipation and she's willing surrendering to it.Just one kiss, she said to herself.Not a second later, confusion instantly rose inside her chest. And she knew it was her logic, trying to prevent her from doing another mistake with Aaron.Who  the f*ck are you to judge me like that? Empleyada ka lang…. Know your place, Ms. Bautista. Now I want you out of my company and never come back!Her eyes flew open as Aaron’s hurtful words from four year ago rang repeatedly inside her head.  Agad na nanumbalik sa isip niya ang lahat ng mga pinagdaanan niyang hirap matapos ang ginawa nito sa kanya. Para siyang binuhusan ng malamig na tubig.She then quickly pushed Aaron with all her might and he struggled to steady his steps backwards. He looked at her wi

Tulala si Samantha habang nakatingin sa anak niyang si Charlie na noon ay nakahiga sa hospital bed. Her daughter was fine. Luckily, Charlie just had a minor fracture on her right elbow. Ang sabi ng mga doktor, the healing process could take until 6 weeks and that her daughter was free to go home. Pero dahil gusto niyang makasiguro, they stayed for the night so that the doctors can thoroughly check Charlie’s condition.The doctors were already casting Charlie’s arm when she arrived at the hospital. And she quickly drowned in a mix of emotions when she saw her daughter’s face was puffy and red the first time she stepped in the emergency room.  She was in a state of panic in an instant when Charlie turned to her and broke into tears once again as she called her name.Sa napakaraming pagsubok na pinagdaanan niya sa buhay niya, ang akala niya matatag na siya. But seeing Charlie withstanding the pain from her injury, that was something she was and will

Samantha drew Charlie closer to her chest when the cool late afternoon air swayed the swing they were seating on. Hapon na at malapit nang lumatag ang dilim. Patunay niyon ang pag-aagaw ng kulay kahel at bughaw sa langit.   Nitong nakaraang ilang mga araw, nakasanayan na nilang mag-ina ang pagmasdan ang paglubog ng araw sa beach. Not only because watching the sunset from there is relaxing, but most importantly, that’s the only time she could have some real mother and daughter time with Charlie. Sa umaga kasi, madalas, ang Daddy niya ang kasama ng anak niya. After lunch naman, nap time ni Charlie. And during those times na hindi siya kailangan ng anak niya, sumisilip siya sa laptop niya to answer emails o ‘di kaya naman makipag-meeting kina Mandy at Bettina, just to check on their progress with their events.    So this sunset watching they’ve been doing for a couple of days now is really the only time she gets to spend with Charlie.
