Lahat ng Kabanata ng In the Arms of the Enigmatic Billionaire: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

Walang pakialam si Audrey kay Gayle at never niyang na-imagine na magkakaroon sila nh confrontation. But her patience was tested today in the comfort by that pretentious woman. Iritado siya nang maalala ang nangyari. Talagang kayang-kaya gamitin nito ang inosente niyang hitsura. She was not in a good mood anymore. Minabuti niyang hindi muna bumalik sa private dining room agad. She planned to go to the front desk to pay their bill first. Kinausap siya sandali ng naroon tungkol sa meal computation. She slowly calmed down and decided that after that, she will be back to Regan and Reina to continue their meal. After swiping her card, she turned around. Napahinto siya sa paghakbang nang makita kung sino ang naroon sa may likod niya. It was the heroine of the big drama and her fiancé who happened to be Audrey's ex-husband. Halos mapairap siya sa kamalasan niya. Originally, she wanted to pretend that she didn't see them. Lalampasan na sana niya ang mga ito nang biglang magsalita si L

Nag-drive na pauwi si Lawrence dala si Gayle since sakanila na ito nagi-stay. He was in a lighter mood now after his conversation with Gayle. Pagpasok pa lang nila sa mansion ng mga Villafuente, excited siyang sinalubong ng kapatid niya na si Leandra. Patalon-talon pa itong lumapit sa kaniya. "Look, Kuya! Guess what I saw today!" she happily said. Halos isubsob niya sa mukha ng Kuya Lawrence niya ang screen ng kaniyang phone. "That bîtch! Look here! This is Audrey and based on this picture, she definitely cheated on you when you were still her husband!" She sounded so proud of her discovery, thinking it is something that will make him glad. Napatitig si Lawrence sa screen ng phone. Picture iyon ni Audrey kung saan nasa may labas ng luxury car ni Regan silang dalawa. Sa anggulo ng picture na 'yon ay tila may namamagitan talaga sa dalawa. He realized that it was captured just earlier based on their clothes. The dissatisfaction in his heart rose again. Ang mas magaan niyang aura na

Matapos i-post ang promotional posters no'ng hapon, dumagsa pa lalo ang mga nag-sign up para sumali sa competition. Masaya si Audrey na marami ang may interest sumali although it means that it would also take a lot of work and energy. But it's fine, it makes her happy. Mas naging busy si Audrey kasama ang ibang estudyante na tumutulong sa kaniya sa paglipas ng mga oras kaya hindi na niya inasahan pa na may eepal na naman sa registration booth nila para lang guluhin siya. Before Leandra found them, may nabasa ito na poster sa bulletin board. Binasa ni Leandra ang nasa poster. "Psychological knowledge competition and this year, it was actually handed over to Audrey aka bîtch Atienza?" Leandra stared at the highlighted words 'Miss Audrey Atienza' on the poster, her eyes felt like it was burning. Did she read it right?Bakit pagkakatiwalaan ito ng malaking event ng university nila? Was she really that great?Ang kasama-sama nitong alipores ay tumango sa kaniya habang nakasimangot. "That

Ang alipores niya ay nanlalaki ang mga mata, puno iyon ng inggit at paghanga. And her job is to flatter Leandra. "Oh my gosh, Leandra! Ang bait naman ng kuya mo, he must be fond of you. I heard that the CEO of companies are very busy and yet, he is here to pick you up!" Tila punong-puno ng paghanga at inggit ang boses niya. Leandra's vanity and narcissistic side was immediately validated by her follower. Kaya lalo naman lumabas ang yabang niya. She smirked and crossed her arms, looking arrogant and proud. "Right? Of course he's fond of me. Spoiled nga niya ako, I can control him because he loves me the most!" His brother loves him but not to the extent that he spoils her. And she could not definitely control her brother! Disciplinarian type nga ito kaysa sa Mommy nila. But she won't tell that, of course. "Gosh, I really envy you, Leandra. Nasa sayo na ang lahat. You're so pretty, you have a good family background, and your brother really loves you! And gosh, I have never tried

Hindi malayo ang apartment na tinitirahan niya mula sa university kaya nga nilalakad lang niya iyon but for the first time, Audrey felt a little tired and drained. Pagdating sa apartment niya, wala rin siyang gana magluto for her dinner. Wala rin siyang gana kumain. To cool herself, kumuha siya ng can ng beer sa refrigerator niya saka pabagsak na umupo sa sofa. She felt a little irritated and she could not tell why. Sigurado siya sa sarili niya na hindi na mahal si Lawrence. Kahit kaunting pagkagusto rito ay wala na. He's nothing to her pero sa mga ginagawa nito for the past days, she's beginning to hate him. Simula nang mag divorce sila, palagi ng nagpapakita ang lalake sa kaniya. Hindi niya naman kailangan ang presensya nito. She really wants a peaceful life for herself, away from him and his family. Ngunit ang mga ito yata ang lumalapit sa kaniya, pati na rin si Lawrence. Kaya iritado talaga siya pati sa sarili niya. Nakakairita dahil bulag yata talaga siya noon para mainlove s
