Lahat ng Kabanata ng Realizing Faults, CEO Wants To Remarry Everyday: Kabanata 131 - Kabanata 140

Ronan “What is it, Elijah? Why are you here?” I told Elijah to focus on the work at the office, yet, here he was. “Boss, the meeting with the CEO of Chiq Royale is set for 2 o’clock p.m. You know it was supposed to be a meeting of the two CEOs. So I wanted to find out if I should just send an email to cancel it or…?” Oh, right! I totally forgot about that. I was finally going to meet the mysterious CEO of Grand Ambience today. How could I miss this because I became too weak? Damn that Conrad for keeping me here till the end of the week! I bet he’s just enjoying holding me in this damn hospital. “You could have called me on the phone for this, Elijah. Don’t waste my time. Why are you really here?” He couldn’t fool me with his facade. I could already tell he was hiding something. “Boss…” Elijah still hesitated, but I wasn’t having it. Whatever he had to say, he might as well spill it now. My look said it all, and he didn’t dare to tarry any longer. “Boss, the design team ma

Elena “I left here after the hour hit 2 o’clock. He wasn’t here when I stepped out, so they were absent from our meeting. By extension, Chiq Royale did not honor our agreement to meet for a discussion. Mr Assistant, please tell your boss that we would not cooperate with Chiq Royale anymore. You can excuse us now.” I didn’t even spare one more look at the young man who just stood there, staring at me as if I had two heads. “Mr Greene, you can…” I was about to drive the assistant away when Malvin doused me with so much cold water that I nearly froze from the realization. His words were a true shocker. The traitor… “Elena, please, calm down. You missed him by a few seconds only. Truth be told, he was right on schedule. He didn’t delay in the slightest.” What the heck! Was this guy my assistant or Elijah’s lackey? “What you’re trying to say is that…” I pushed further, daring Maalvin to repeat what he just said. I dared him to attempt defending Elijah Greene, and by extension, his b

ValerieI couldn’t believe that the person I spoke to in that office was my proud and usually arrogant elder brother. Love could really bring the mightiest of men to their knees, indeed. Only a person with zero emotional quotient like Ronan would believe he had no feelings for Elena Jones all these years. Who was he kidding, anyway?After leaving my brother’s ward, I decided to solve this pressing issue without telling him about it. How could I remain idle, just because he asked me to? Ronan has always been a proud man who rarely asked other people for help. Even me as his sister never had the chance to do anything for him. Not when we were kids, and not now that we all became adults. However, for the first time in my life, I witnessed my brother break down because of Elena Jones. The sight was eye-opening. It was already annoying that Ronan didn’t appreciate Elena’s love, but he also pushed her away when she needed him the most. She had a terminal illness for crying out loud.I coul

Elena “So, tell me, Val, how did you adopt the culture of bowing? I was really shocked when I saw you do that. That was so unlike you. It was… Simply…”I couldn’t find the words to describe how I felt. I know it was weird, but I felt as though a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders when she did that. I didn’t know I was still so pissed with the Simpsons, until Valerie did what she came here for. When she bowed and apologized for each of them, I was suddenly reminded about all the painful memories I’ve been trying to suppress. At that moment, I realized I was still angry with them, even though I only tried to suppress it all these while.“Overwhelming,” Valerie concluded my words. She sounded so sure of what she said that I didn’t wish to burst her bubbles by telling her that I felt relieved in a strange way when she apologized on behalf of everybody. Not that I had plans of returning to the Simpsons, but her words made me realize that there was another Simpson who really felt for

Elijah Greene“Calm down, boss. Please calm down. I’ll tell you everything you need to know, but let’s not talk about seeing her now, okay?” I spoke to Ronan as if he were a child that I needed to coax with a piece of candy. Ronan Simpson couldn’t believe what he was hearing. His assistant truly treated him like a child, huh? I knew I might just start sending out applications for employment in the next minute. “Do you want to find another job, Mr Greene?” The boss’ words caught me unawares, and I even choked on my spit. Didn’t I just jinx myself. As soon as I thought about it, he said it. That’s some sick shit right there. I got a wife to wed soon enough, and I couldn’t bear to lose my job. Not now, not ever. My eyes bulged from the shock, and I couldn’t believe my ears. Wait. I might have gotten something wrong, because I don’t get it. “Did the boss just call me Mr Greene? What the heck? Isn’t this what people usually refer to as telepathy?” I mused silently, allowing my jaws tt
