Chapter 19Fuck. Damn. Shit! Jack was constantly cursing in his mind.Kanina pa siya palinga-linga sa paligid upang hanapin ang kaniyang secretary.After they shared in a hot kissed all of a sudden she disappeared just like that. He followed her immediately and wanted to talk to her, but he never found Monica.Ang bilis naman tumakas ng babaeng iyon? Shit.He was taken aback when his phone suddenly rang. Damn it! For a moment he forgot the dinner he was supposed to go to.Pagkarating nila ni Monica sa opisina galing supermarket ay nagbihis agad si Jack dahil gusto raw siya makita ng mga magulang."Mom, I'm coming. I just had to take care of some important things here." Bungad niya sa inang tumawag.Jack quickly got in his car and Kuya Joel immediately drove to the restaurant where his parents were waiting for him."Make it fast son. Your father has been waiting for a while now. You might get scolded again by him." Malumanay na saad nang mommy niya.Jack took a deep breath. Such a scen
Chapter 20Napaigtad si Monica dahil sa hangin na dumampi sa kaniyang tainga. Masamang tingin ang ipinukol niya sa kapatid na si Miguel na ngayon ay malawak na nakangisi."Sabi kasi ni papa hipan ko raw ang tainga mo ate." Agad na paliwanag ng kapatid."Okay ka lang ba Monica?" Untag sa kaniya ng ama. "Maputla ka at nanlalalim ang mga mata mo. Hindi ka ba nakatulog kagabi?"Hindi naman siya nakaimik sa ama. Ano ba ang maaari niyang sagutin sa tanong nito? Na hindi siya nakatulog dahil sa halik na pinaranas sa kaniya ng boss niya?Baka atakihin pa ang kaniyang ama ng sakit sa puso kapag nalaman nito ang naganap kahapon sa pagitan nila ni Sir Jack.Ang madalas na bilin sa kaniya ng ama ay huwag siyang papahalik sa hindi naman niya nobyo."Puyat lang po ako Pa, May tinapos lang kasi akong report kagabi bago ako matulog." Tumikhim siya at umiwas ng tingin dito. Hindi siya sanay magsinungaling sa magulang.Napalingon naman si Monica sa bungad ng kusina. Papalabas doon ang kaniyang ina. Nap
Chapter 21"It was nothing...." He seriously said.Her jaws dropped!Sandali lang ha. Nabingi yata siya. Tama ba ang rinig niya sa sinabi ng lalake nasa harapan ngayon?It was nothing...It was nothing?!Her lips parted a bit. Bigla hindi siya makahagilap ng salita. Pakiramdam niya literal niyang narinig na nabasag ang puso niya.Humigpit ang hawak niya sa kubyertos. Tumikhim si Monica parang may bumikig sa lalamunan niya. "Okay Sir." Simpleng sagot niya sa lalake."Are you alright Monica?" He asked in his deep manly voice.Tumango siya sa lalake at pilit tumayo ng tuwid. "I’m perfectly fine Sir. May kailangan pa po ba kayo Sir? Lalabas na po ako.""Where are you going? You don't want to eat here with me?" His perfect eyebrows raised.Yes! Ayaw kong makaharap ka habang kumakain baka hindi ako matunawan! Ang kapal ng mukha ng lalakeng ito nakuha pa siya ayain na kumain kasabay ito. Bulyaw ni Monica sa isipan."No Sir. May importante lang po akong lakad ngayon." Tumalikod na siya at wal
Chapter 22Natuloy ang dinner nilang tatlo. Tinupad ni Jonas ang pangako nito na ililibre sila ni Sena. Alam ni Monica na nakikiramdam lamang ang dalawa sa kaniya.Pasalamat na lang si Monica dahil hindi mapilit ang best friend niya na alamin ang nangyari sa pagitan nila ng kaniyang boss.Hindi rin niya maaatim na masira ang masayang gabi na dapat ay para kay Sena. Isang magandang balita ang hatid ni Sena sa kanila nang gabing iyon."Hindi ko talaga inaasahan ito bes.Ang saya ko na-promote ako sa wakas!" Sena said cheerfully.Masayang masaya siya para sa kaibigan. Sena received a job promotion. She will be included in the Sales and Marketing Department."You deserve it Sena! I'm happy for you bes." Niyakap ni Monica ang kaibigan."At dahil diyan si Sena ang manglilibre!" Jonas exclaimed and burst out laughing.Nanlaki naman ang mata at butas nang ilong ni Sena dahil sa sinabi ni Jonas. "Hoy uhugin! Ikaw ang magbabayad lahat nang kinain natin ano!"Nagtawanan silang tatlo at hindi na n
Chapter 23The moment Jack kissed Monica he felt a powerful hit on his chest. That’s it! Damn! He likes her. He wanted her.He likes Monica so much to think that he could kill another man. He remembered the last time he saw her with another man. Smiling widely with another fucker! Shit. Damn that! He remembered how furious he felt that night. He wanted to break the face of the man she was talking to and close to hers.Because of his raging wrath, he was able to utter a words that Monica cry. Damn it! He wanted to apologize right that moment, but he didn’t know how. His father raised him to think highly of himself. He never experienced apologizing to someone else. He is Joaquin “Jack” Ricafort. But why the fuck does he seem to want to approach Monica and apologized?! Hell no!He knew right that moment she was avoiding him after the kissed they shared in his office. He also made a mistake in saying that the kiss happened between them was nothing. Yes! He was a total jerk!Jack hates a
Chapter 24Monica's expression couldn't be shaded as she searched for her pump. She didn't know where it had gone. Monica was particularly agitated by a man standing in front of her and leaning on his working table with his arms crossed over his chest.He was already wearing his white long sleeve, but all the buttons were still open. His naked sexy upper body was visible to her.Napapadyak siya ng paa dahil sa Inis. Ang kapal ng mukha ng kapreng manyakis na ito! "Nasaan na ba kasi iyon! Ugh! nakakainis!" Kanina pa si Monica patuwad-tuwad sa puwesto niya dahil sa kakasilip sa ilalim ng malaking sofa para lang mahanap ang isang pares ng pumps niya."Need a hand?" he asked in a gentle voice."Well, I don't." she answered firmly.She heard him chuckled a bit. This man seems to smiling more often. Well, who wouldn't be satisfied with what he did earlier?Itinali lang naman siya nito sa kama at pinapak ang leeg at labi niya na animo'y kumakain lang ng ice cream.Ang puso't katawan naman ni

She still has two hours to fix herself."Bes!" tawag nang kaibigan sa kaniya at kumaway pa iyon."Thank you Sena dahil tutulungan mo ako ulit mag-ayos." Saad ni Monica."
Chapter 26As she walked to sir Jack's office, her heart was pounding with excitement. Monica knew herself that her feelings for her boss were deep. With time, she submerges herself more and more.But in her heart, she had feared and apprehended.Her best friend was right, she shouldn't be in a hurry, she needs to think about it carefully. It was the first time she had felt such a deep connection towards a man. She was afraid to try and give it a risk. But for sir Jack, maybe she's ready to give it a shot.She fixed her off-shoulder dress first before knocking on the double door of his office. She opened the door and saw the gorgeous man sitting in his swivel chair. He was now well dressed and very dangerously handsome in his black tuxedo.Monica felt the sensation of nervousness when he scanned her from head to toe. Monica cleared her throat she became uneasy every time he looked at her intently. She gave him a gentle smile. "are we leaving now, sir?"Sir Jack got up from his seat an
