Lorch Crown

Chapter 37

Nabura ang ngiti ni Saskia saka tumalim ang mata niya.

"Ako hindi pwede?! Pero ang gago mong boss pwede?! Letche kayo!" Sigaw niya sa inis.

Hinampas niya ito ng bag niya bago siya nagmamartsang pumasok ng apartment building.

Iniwan niya ang bodyguard na hindi makahuma at lito. Siguradong hindi nito nainitindihan ang sinabi niya. Pero pakialam niya ba. Pumasok siya ng apartment niya at padabog na sinara ang pintuan at nagtungo ng silid niya.

Pagkapasok ng silid niya ay natigilan si Saskia nang may naramdaman at napansin na kakaiba. Saskia slowly walked toward her bedside drawers but before she even reach it, a man spoke.

"Hmm... such a nice body you got. Your boyfriend must be always hard around you."

Cold and shiver run through Saskia's body. Oh my... goodness...

"Turn around, babe. Met the man behind those letters." Utos nito.

Kumunot ang noo niya. What? Si prankster?

Saskia listened and the moment she saw the man, she immediately remember him. Ito ang lalaki na ilang beses niyang nakasabay sa elevator doon sa hotel kung saan ang suite ni Lorch. This was the same man that gives her creepy vibes.

"Oh, I can see that you remember me," anito at lumapit habang hawak ang isang folding knife.

Saskia took a deep breath, her mind busy reminding herself of those tips Encar and her friends told her if someone tries to harm her. Inalala niya rin ang mga panlaban niya. She's equipped, she just has to reach them.

Malagkit ang mata na tinignan siya ng lalaki.

"You are really beautiful..." anito at hinawakan ang ilang hibla ng buhok niya.

"What do you want?" she asked, glad that her voice didn't flutter.

Ngumiti ito. "Oh, I want many things but I got not much right now because a fucking asshole took it away from me."

"I don't understand. I am not a fucking asshole but yes, I am a bitch." Saskia scoffed, clenching her jaw.

This man must be on drugs or mental.

The man chuckles. "I like you." Tinuro nito ang isang daliri. "I like you." Ulit nito. "Lorch Crown..." anito.

Natigilan si Saskia at pigil na umingos. Ang gago na 'yon.

"Your boyfriend. He was my boss until he fired me and ruin my family," anito.

Ay... Gossip 'to...

Saskia feigns nonchalantly despite the interest.

"What does it have to do with me? FYI, he's no longer my boyfriend. He hasn't called for over a week now," wika niya.

Umiling ito saka pumunta sa likod niya at hinaplos ang balakang niya na nagpataas ng balahibo niya sa katawan.

Chansing ang gago!

"But he still cares so much about you when you still have his bodyguards lurking around. That only means you still matter. And I know you matter a lot."

Nang tangkain niyang lumayo ay mahigpit nitong hinawakan ang bewang niya saka tinutok ang kutsilyo sa leeg niya.

Saskia gasped. Okay... This is getting serious...

"No... Please, don't. I still have to work to pay my millions of debt. Please," she begged. "My friends will not give my grave the harmony if I die not paying them back their hard-earned money."
