All Chapters of The Missing Billionaire (TAGLISH): Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

I am forcing myself to forget about it because I don’t want to keep blaming myself for what happened, and I don’t want to remember the incident that only led to me losing my mother.I thought I was okay, I thought I had moved on, but I am still hurt and affected until now. The past continues to haunt me even though I have completely regretted that incident. I’ve already repented, my father has completely turned his back on me, and so has the world, but why am I the one suffering for a mistake I didn’t even mean to make?"How is she, Doctor? Does she need to be taken to the hospital?""She's fine, there's no need to take her to the hospital. But she needs to undergo therapy and medication. We already knew what was causing this, but we have to make sure that it won't happen again. She's been suffering from post-traumatic stress, and it will only get worse if it's not addressed early.""Alright, Doctor. I will take her to a therapist tomorrow. Thank you.""You're welcome. If you need hel

Sa wakas nakauwi na rin ako.It’s really a good thing that he had an unexpected errand earlier, that’s why he didn’t take me home. Pabor naman sa akin 'yon since ayoko naman na ihatid niya 'ko o kahit na makasama siya.Naguguluhan ako sa mga sinabi niya sa akin kanina. Hindi ko alam kung ano ang gusto niyang iparating sa akin. Pero hindi na 'ko nagtanong kasi hindi naman ako interesado, at baka dumagdag pa 'yon sa mga iniisip ko. Pero ang weird talaga ng mga sinabi niya sa'kin."Erina, it’s good that you’re finally home," he said when I entered the apartment, but I was surprised when he suddenly greeted me with a warm hug.Hindi ko alam kung bakit, pero nagtaka ako sa ginawa niya."O-Okay ka lang ba?" tanong ko, nang makawala na ako mula sa pagkakayakap niya.He nodded in response, but I could see the worry in his eyes. "I-I'm fine, I just can't help but worry about you.""Okay na 'ko, huwag ka nang mag-alala sa'kin," sagot ko, at maliit na ngumiti sa kaniya.Naupo muna ako sa sofa, s

"You don't have to worry about anything, and don't think about what you read earlier either. I'll take care of it, okay?" wika ni Kuya Erick nang makalabas na kaming dalawa sa shop.Tumango na lamang ako bilang sagot, at maliit na ngumiti sa kaniya. Nagpaalam na rin siya na aalis na dahil mayroon pa raw siyang dadaluhan na meeting. At niyakap muna ako nito bago siya sumakay sa kotse.Sinundan ko na lamang ng tingin ang papalayo nitong sasakyan, pero hindi ko maiwasan ang huwag mag-alala sa kapatid ko.He's been going through a lot right now, and he could lose everything if his company's problem isn't solved right away. I want to help him, but I don't know what to do to help.Whoever did that is really going to be in big trouble."Faye, kumusta ka?" tanong ko, nang sagutin ko ang tawag nito.Kasalukuyan akong naglalakad palabas ng shop nang bigla siyang tumawag. Ang huling usap namin ay noong nakaraang linggo pa. At pagkatapos niyon ay hindi na kami nakapag-usap o nagkita man lang.[Ik

Nangangatog na ang tuhod ko sa takot at kaba nang dahil sa narinig ko mula kay Louie kanina. Hindi ko kilala ang taong 'yon, at wala akong ginawang kasalanan sa kaniya para planuhin nitong patayin ako.He didn’t come here to steal, but to do something that almost happened to me before.Hindi ko pa alam kung ano ang motibo niya para gawin sa akin ang bagay na 'yon. Sa ilang taon na pagtira ko rito sa apartment, ngayon lang ito nangyari at ngayon lang ako nakaramdam ng sobrang takot no'ng nalaman ko ang pakay nito."Erina, uminom ka muna ng tubig," wika ni Tiya Helen, nang lumapit ito sa akin na may dalang isang baso ng tubig. Ngunit puno ng pag-aalala ang mukha nito.Kaagad ko rin naman itong kinuha at uminom ng kaunti, pero hindi ko pa rin nagawang kumalma. Nananalaytay pa rin sa buong katawan ko ang takot at kaba dahil sa ginawa nang lalaking 'yon."Mabuti na lang at nariyan ang nobyo mo, dahil kung nagkataon na mag-isa ka lang dito, baka naisakatuparan na niya ang binabalak niya sa’

He was still hugging me, but not a single word came out of his mouth. I couldn’t speak either because of how shocked I was earlier, and his sudden hug only added to it.I still have no idea why he treated me that way earlier. The pain from how he ignored me still hurts. And it hasn’t gone away even though he already apologized to me."A-Ano bang problema mo?" naiinis na tanong ko, sabay na kumawala mula sa pagkakayakap niya.Hindi siya nakasagot, sa halip, tumingin lang ito sa akin na may halong lungkot at pagsisisi. Dumistansya ako ng ilang hakbang mula sa kaniya—natatakot na baka may gawin siya sa akin."Lumabas ka na. Bukas na tayo mag-usap. Wala na 'ko sa mood ngayon," malamig na sambit ko, at umiwas ng tingin sa kaniya.Pero hindi pa rin siya sumagot, nanatili pa rin siyang tahimik habang nakatingin sa akin. Ewan ko ba ba't pa siya pumasok dito kung hindi naman pala siya magsasalita?"So, tatahimik ka na lang? Hindi ka magsasalita? Hahayaan mo lang akong magsalita ng mag-isa rito
