Downfall Of The Badass

Chapter 46: You're Hired

Kinabukasan ay nagpunta si Ty sa mansyon ng mga Lyons.

"Are you here to see my sister...?" ani naman ni JT

"Actually no...I'm here to see Tita Marga and your father...including you JT..." ani naman ni Ty na direchong nakatingin kay JT

"About what?" ani naman ni JT

"It's about Laurice...and please don't tell her I'm here..." ani naman ni Ty

"Alright... Follow me..." ani naman ni JT matapos makita ang kaseryosohan sa mata ni Ty.

Dumirecho sila sa silid ng ni Jarrod.

"Good morning Mr. Lyons, Tita Marga..." ani naman ni Ty

"Ty...nice to see you again..." ani naman ni Marga

"You too Tita...but I came here to talk about Laurice." ani naman ni Ty

"What about my daughter do you wanna talk about young man?" ani naman ni Jarrod.

"She's... She's pregnant... And...and I'm the father of the child..." ani naman ni Ty pero tila nagulat ang mga tao sa silid maliban kay JT.

"Do you want me to jump in glee thatvyou got my daughter knocked up?!" galit namang sagot ni Jarrod

"No sir...I...I came here to ask for your daughters hand...I wanna marry her..." ani naman ni Ty

"You got some balls. Do you know who am I young man?" ani naman ni Jarrod

"You're Jarrod Lyons who spearheaded the success of Lyons Cruise and Shipping Lines sir." ani naman ni Ty na direchong nakatingin sa mga maya ni Jarrod

"Good thing you know. Do you think I'd give away my daughter to you?" ani pa ni Jarrod na sinusubukan si Ty.

"Yes sir." ani naman ni Ty

"Don't you think you're too arrogant to face me?" ani naman ni Jarrod

"No sir but I know I can give your daughter a good life. That she won't need to work in her entire life. Even our child and his child to come." matapang namang sagot ni Ty

"And who are you to be able to do that?" tanong naman ni Jarrod

"Aldrich Harvey Betancourt, Prince of France and also the CEO of Crawford Records and Network, applying to be your daughters husband sir." ani naman ni Ty na hindi nagpapasindak sa ama ni Laurice.

Hindi man nagpapahalata ay na impress si Jarrod sa binata. Hindi dahil sa.kung anong meron ito kung hindi sa tatag ng loob ng binata na humarap sa kanya.

"And you think I'll hand her over to you just because of what you have?" ani pa ni Jarrod

"No sir. But I know I can make her happy. Your daughter never gave up on me. Thought me a lot of things and I'm better because of her. It's not that she needs me to have a good life but it's the other way around...I need her in my life. She's my lifeline...she gave me the courage to fight for whatever life I have left...I will be honest with you sir. Three years is what they say I have left. I...I have ALS...so I would understand if you refuse to let me marry your daughter... But...those three years if you would let me...I want to spend all of it loving your daughter... Every second of it..." ani naman ni Ty na pinipigilan ang pagbagsak ng luha sa mga mata.

"You're a brave young man... But we'll call you if you passed the inital interview..." ani naman ni Jarrod

"Sir..." ani naman ni Ty

"Just kidding... You're hired...I just want you to promise me one thing...don't stop fighting for your life son...so you can be with your family long enough... " ani naman ni Jarrod na ngumiti na.
