Nagising ako na mas mabigat ang pakiramdam kaysa kagabi. The reality of my proposal. And the scandal brewing outside was finally sinking in. Pero pagdilat ko, naramdaman ko ang higpit ng yakap ni Timothy sa akin.“Did you sleep well?” paos na bulong ko.Timothy kissed my forehead, his presence grounded and calm. “Mm-hmm. I’ll handle the Board and the Grey Estate”“Fine,” I finished for him. “May interview rin naman ako today sa isang lifestyle live conference. I need to set things straight.”“Good luck, baby,” he murmured, though his eyes remained serious. “Magiging maayos rin ang lahat, Tine.”Tumango lang ako bago muling yumakap pabalik sa kanya.Puno ako ng pag-asa habang nag-aayos kami. I felt like we were a team... a fortress. Pero lahat ng kumpiyansa ko ay naglaho nang bumukas ang pinto ng penthouse.I expected the guards. I didn't expect the two people standing there with faces full of judgment.Mr. Arthur Grey was standing there, looking every bit the cold patriarch of the Gre

Sa loob ng sumunod na mga araw, naging parang war room ng isang fashion house at logistics company ang penthouse. Dahil dalawang linggo lang ang palugit bago ang mismong kasal, everything was on double-time.“Ma’am, choice of flowers for the aisle. Peonies or Orchids? We need your decision in five minutes para ma-secure ang shipment from Holland!” sigaw ng head coordinator habang hinahabol ako sa walk-in closet.“Ma’am, the seating arrangement! Mrs. Reyes and her camp are demanding to be near the front, should we decline?” sabi naman ng assistant coordinator na may hawak na tatlong tablet.“And the gown, girl! The lace from France just arrived. We need one last fitting!” kantsaw ni Yssa na parang mas stressed pa sa akin.I rubbed my temples. Ganito pala ang wedding prep kapag biglaan—everything is fast, expensive, and overwhelming. Pero halos lahat ay plantsado na, kailangan na lang ng final approval ko bago i-execute ang lahat. It was a rush, pero dahil si Timothy ang groom, money an

“Akala ko ba dinner lang ’to?” gulat kong tanong nang pagbukas ko ng pinto ng isang private lounge sa Makati, bumulaga sa akin sina Rina, Cristy, at si Yssa na may hawak na "Bride-to-Be" sash.“Surprise! Ano ka ba, Elara? Hindi pwedeng ikakasal ka nang walang bachelorette party!” tawa ni Cristy sabay suot sa akin ng sash at isang mini veil.The night was filled with drinks, non-stop chismis, at mga katrabaho kong todo-bigay sa sayawan. For the first time in weeks, nakahinga ako. Pakiramdam ko, hindi ako ang EVP ng Montesilva Holdings kundi isang normal na babaeng malapit nang ikasal sa lalaking mahal niya.Pero ang tawanan ay medyo nahinto nang bumukas ang pinto at pumasok si Zerina.Naka-ismid siya, suot ang kanyang usual designer outfit, at agad na umirap nang magtama ang paningin namin. Napahinto ang music.“Zerina? Anong ginagawa mo rito?” I asked, trying to stay polite.“Well, Tito Tim asked me to check if you’re already making a scandal before the wedding,” pabalang niyang sagot

Wakas

The atmosphere in the room was heavy, and suffocating. Standard for a room where an empire is about to change hands. Lumapit ako sa bedside ni Juancho. He was a titan of industry, pero ngayon, he looked like a shadow of the man I respected."Allan..." his voice was a mere rasp. "Lumapit ka."Marahan akong humakbang palapit. Across the room, Attorney Ramos was holding the legal binders. It was the blueprints of the Montesilva transition. Habang si Elena naman ay mahigpit at nanginginig ang mga kamay na nakahawak kay Juancho."I’m here, Sir," kumpirma ko."The board... they’re vultures, Allan," Juancho coughed, but his eyes momentarily flashing with that old corporate fire. "They’re just waiting for the ticker to stop. Once I’m gone, they’ll liquidate everything. They’ll initiate a hostile takeover. And Elara... she’s the collateral damage. She’s too young to navigate this shark tank. Pipira-pirasuhin nila ang anak ko.""I won't let that happen, Sir. I’ll safeguard her interest."Humigpi
