BryceI drive without direction. I know where they live. It was never the same address anymore. It's in Xavier States, just a few kilometers from Mondra Suites Residence. I can easily go there. I know the securities, and they all know me.Kaya ko 'yon, dahil kilala ko na sila, and that damn lunatic Romeo lives in that area.Damn it! Why the hell I'm suffering this alone? What the hell did I do to deserve this?Hininto ko ang sasakyan sa tapat ng magarbong bahay ni Romeo. The security team easily lets me in as they know me. They know that I log to see Romeo and his gang here sometimes to play golf.Pinindot ko ang doorbell sa gate. May screen ito. Umilaw at saka nagsalita ang walanghiya."Who's there?""I'm fucking sure you see me now," my jaw tightened.The gate unlocks, and I'm in. Siya agad ang sumalubong sa akin."Damn you," I walked past him, annoyed, and I'm still pissed off.He laughs a little and follows me."Calm down, Bryce. You look like a hungry hyena," he scoffs.I growl w

Charm"Where? Oh? I see. . . That's fine."I drop the call and look at Cianna. I need to take her with me today, together with Tanya. And instead of meeting Romeo at the same place, he just moved the location at the last minute."Ready?" I grab my sling bag and smile at Tanya. Hinawakan ko agad ang kamay ng anak ko at saka seryoso niya akong tinitigan."We need to drop somewhere first to get some presents.""Ha? Bakit?" si Tanya ang nagtanong nang lumabas na kami ng bahay."Romeo changed the location at the last minute. Birthday party ng anak ng best friend niya. We can meet there.""Birthday party?" Lumawak agad ang ngiti ni Cianna nang maupo siya sa tabi ko. Pumwesto rin agad si Tanya sa likod."Yes, baby.""To La Trobe, Jim," tugon ko sa driver, at sa tabi niya ay ang nag-iisang bodyguard namin ngayon."La Trobe? That place is more like a beauty area, Miss Charm.""Yeah, sort of like that, and they have a shopping mall across. We may as well stop at that spot first before going to

Bryce"Damn it, Bryce. This is not what I want to happen.""I don't fucking care, Romeo. You can pretend that you don't know a thing. Leave it to me and don't fucking do anything, bro," I gritted my teeth. Ubos na ang pasensya ko at wala na akong panahon na makipagbiruan pa sa kanila. Ayaw ko sa plano nila."Fine. So, I will see you there and pretend that I don't know you. Damn it," he laughs and ends the call at once.I have planned everything. The boys are all in the position, and everyone will work steadily with everything.Lahat ng mga staff at tauhan sa resort shop ay akin, at alam na nila ang gagawin nila."All in position.""Yes, boss."I inhaled deeply, waiting for Charmie and Cianna to arrive. I believe Tanya will be with them again. I have other plans for Tanya, and that will solve the rest of the plan.***Charm"Huli na ito at pagkatapos nito ay babalik na tayo sa Switzerland, baby." Hinaplos ko na ang mahabang buhok ni Cianna. Nakasimangot siya sa akin."Nope. I don't wa

Bryce"All good. It's all up to you now, Bryce. I will leave everything to you.""Thank you, lunatic," I smirked as I listened to Romeo talking in the line. He ended the call quickly, and I'm ready to take possession.Nasa loob na sila at nasa kabilang banda ang anak ko. I step inside, stern and firm. I know what I want, and I will take it with me today. There's no turning back.Bahagyang yumuko ang mga ulo nila nang makita nila ako. Pumasok ako sa indoor playground, at pumwesto ang iilang mga tauhan ko sa likod.My heart hammered hard when I saw Cianna, playing happily. The two staff members recognize me right away. They stand up and bow their heads halfway. They step back as I step towards Cianna."Mr. Bryce Mondragon?" Cianna exclaimed happily the moment she saw me."Hello, beautiful. How are you?" I bend to meet her height. She opened her arms widely, wanting to hug me."I miss you..." Napaluhod na ako at mahigpit na niyakap siya. I can feel my heart throbbing inside with so much
