บททั้งหมดของ SECRETLY MARRIED to My Father's COLLEAGUE [A.G.S #2]: บทที่ 191 - บทที่ 200

VIRELLE OLIVIA'S POV My friends had decided to visit me today, supposedly to help with the wedding preparations. Supposedly. Because after almost an hour, I realized that they weren't really helping. They were just there to gossip. "Okay, Virelle," Alyssa said while sitting comfortably on the sofa. "Let's talk about the honeymoon." Muntikan na akong mabulunan sa biglaang tanong niyang iyon. "What about it?" She grinned. "You know what I mean." Napailing ako. "Why are you suddenly all like this?" Tumawa ang lahat. "Because you're getting married!" singit ni Camille. "We have the right to ask." "Ask what?" "Everything." I stared at them. "Kahit kailan talaga ay hindi kayo mabuting kaibigan." Asik ko. "Yet you still invited us. Kaya ngayon na nandito kami ay sagutin mona ang tanong namin, Virelle. Wala namang mawawala," aniya. For the next couple of hours, we talked about almost everything. The wedding. Our dresses. The guests. The venue. Ou

VIENRIELLE GEAE VALDERAMA "Hindi mo naman ugaling magyaya sa ganitong lugar... may probelama ba?" tanong sa akin ni Amanda matapos inomin ang alak sa kanyang baso. "Wala naman. Gusto ko lang mag-relax," sagot ko sabay isinubo ang naliliit na hiwa ng apple. "Gustong mag-relax? Pero sa maingay na lugar pumunta. Nasisiraan kana ba?" asik niya. Napailing ako at muling iginala ang aking paningin sa paligid. At tama nga siya, masyadong maingay ang lugar na ito para sa sinasabi kong relax. Maraming tao. Umaalingawngaw ang ibat ibat komunikasyon sa paligid ko. May sumisigaw sa tuwa, may tumatawa, nay sumasayaw at may nag-aasaran. At bukod doon ay may naglalaplapan. "T*nginang mga tao 'to, hindi ba sila nakakakilala ng hotel? at talagang dito sa publiko naghahalikan?" mahinang bulalas ko. Natawa si Amanda sa tabi ko, hindi ko inakala na narinig niya pa pala iyon kahit na halos ibinulong ko na lang sa hangin. Hmm! magtatataka pa ba ako e ibang level ang pandinig nito lal

VIENRIELLE GEAE VALDERAMA "What do you mean by that?" hindi ko na maitago pa ang labis na pagkadismaya sa aking boses. "They wanted you to marry their son, Geae. I'm pretty sure you know that guy," si kuya Hector sabay umupo sa tabi ko. Maya-maya pa ay sumulpot si Kuya Azriel, nakapaloob sa bulsa ang parehong palad at seryoso ang tingin sa akin. At naninibago ako dahil ngayon niya lang ako tiningnan nang ganito. He was always soft and charming when he looks at me, but know... it's different. "But I don't want to marry that id!ot, ni hindi ko nga siya gusto. Alam niyo 'yon kaya hindi niyo na ako dapat kinausap tungkol dito." Sabi ko. Akmang tatayo na ako para umalis nang umalingawngaw ang boses ni Papa. Hindi iyon galit, kundi ma-otoridad. Kalmado ngunit alam ko sa sarili ko na kapag ganoon ang tono niya ay kailangan kong manahimik. "I would rather have you marry that idiot than marry a Montenegro, Vienrielle..." malamig niyang sabi. Nang marinig ko ang apelyidong iy

ROURICK KAELAN MONTENEGRO "Did they accept my proposal?" I asked without bothering to look up from the glass of whiskey in my hand. The room fell silent for a moment before the familiar voice of my right-hand man broke through the deafening quiet. "No, Sir."Mula sa sahig ay dahan-dahang umangat ang tingin ko sa kanya. "What did you just say?" Darius stood a few feet away from me, his hands clasped behind his back. He had been working for me long enough to know that repeating bad news was never a pleasant task, especially when I was the one asking for it. "The Valderama family refused your proposal, Sir." Ilang segundo ko siyang pinagmasdan bago ko pinakawalan ang isang tawang hindi makapaniwala. "They refused?" "Yes, Sir." I leaned back against the leather chair, swirling the amber liquid inside my glass. For years, the Valderamas had managed to keep their distance from our family. They had their own influence, their own connections, at may sapat silang pera na kayang k

VIENRIELLE GEAE VALDERAMA "Sinusuhulan niyo po ba ako para pakasalan ang lalaking 'yon?" nakataas ang kilay kong tanong habang puno ng pagdududang tiningnan ang aking ama. Kitang-kita ko ang malalim niyang pagbuntong-hininga. Hindi mapakali ang mga kamay niya at halos hindi siya makatingin sa akin nang diretso. "Dad..." pagtawag ko sa kanya. Tumikhim siya sabay niluwagan anf neck tie niya. "Not really. That's just a gift from your fiancé. He told me to give that to you. At sinabi niya rin na kapag kulang pa ay ipaalam lang daw sa kanya at magpapadala siya ng bago." Hindi ako sumagot agad. Pinagkrus ko ang mga braso ko at bahagyang naningkit ang mga matang nakatingin sa kanya. "Then why does he think he can just send me expensive gifts as if I'm some kind of woman he can buy?" I asked, clearly irritated. "Geae, sweetheart—" "No, Dad. Seriously?" Napailing ako. "I don't even know that man personally! And now he's sending me gifts? What does he expect me to do? Fall in lov
