Avaricious Hearts

Chapter 23: The Floral Dress He Ripped

Cleo's POV

Saka lamang ako nakahinga ng maluwag nang nasa loob na kami ng exclusive subdivision kung nasaan ang mansion ng mga Vergara. 

Reporters couldn't go through the tight security kahit na ano pa ang gawin nila. 

Matthew's white R8 sped off as it reached the road of their subdivision. Kanina pa siya naiinis at parang gusto nang sagasaan ang mga tao na humaharang sa kotse niya.

'Paglabas pa lamang namin ng studio ay dinumog na kami ng mga media people. Mabuti nga na nakasakay pa kami ng sasakyan niya. 

Ito ang kinatatakutan ko kaya ayaw ko na malaman ng publiko ang relasyon namin ni Matthew, kung mayroon man.

Hindi ko na mabilang kung nakailang mura si Matthew dahil nagagasgasan na ang kotse niya. Panay pa ang kuha ng pictures namin kahit na heavily tinted naman ang mga salamin ng kotse.

"You're damn famous, baby" he said with half amusement, half mockery 

"It's your fault!" iritang sabi ko sa kanya

"What?" maang na tanong niya at tumingin sa akin

"Eyes on the road!" tarantang sabi ko.

He chuckled before he look straight in front.

"Being a proud boyfriend is never a fault. I just tell them what we are" he said seriously.

I just keep my mouth shut. I don't want to argue. And I am starting to think what I should tell my manager about the issue. At sobrang nakakahiya sa pamilya nila!

We reached their house and he parked his car in its usual spot.

"Paul!" Matthew called one of their drivers.

"Sir" magalang na lumapit ang lalaki at yumukod pa ng bahagya kay Matthew.

"Bring this car to the garage. Tell them to repaint it black" he seriously said.

He grab my hand and pulled me inside their mansion.

"You're all over the news, bro" Nexiel greeted us in the doorstep. 

He even hug me and bump his brother's arm

"Do I look good on their photos?" nakangising tanong ni Matthew

"You bet" Nexiel grinned at us.

I am so nervous that I can collapse any moment now.
