"Phaedra!" narinig kong sigaw ni Mommy ngunit binalewala ko ito.
I also heard curses from the men who's behind me right now.
I looked at Romeo who is still in shock on what is happening right now but I turned my gaze on my father and held his arm and stepped forward.
"Oh my, God! Phaedra! Please stop!" narinig kong sigaw ni Mommy.
"Fuck," I heard Dimitri's loud curse, followed by the others.
I smirked when my father looked surprise on what I am doing right now.
"Those stones were in my body for the past years, so technically, it's mine." mariin kong sinabi sa kanya.
"It's not, you--" napahinto siya sa pagsasalita nang huhugutin niya sana ang kutsilyong sinaksak niya sa aking tiyan.
I stopped him from doing that. This will be our chance. This will be our only chance kaya hindi ko na to papalagpasin!
"No! That's an insane plan, Fay." hindi pagsa-sang-ayon ni Dimitri sa planong naisip ko.
"And we won't be sure if Dad will stab you or use a gun on you." si Kuya naman. "I agree with Dimitri in this, Phaedra. Don't push with that crazy plan of yours."
I groaned because of them.
"But Romeo agreed to play along! He is now telling some of our plans to Daddy." sabi ko sa kanila.
Agad naman nilang tiningnan ng masama si Romeo. While Romeo is just sipping in his juice as he looked at them with a playful smile.
"I need cash, dude! Babayaran daw ako ni Phaedra, oh!" natatawang sabi ni Romeo sa kanila.
"Phaedra, you are risking your life here." paalala ni ate Medusa sa akin.
"Ate, if risking my life here is the only way to stop my father from hurting us. Then, I will. I will do this." seryoso kong sabi sa kanya... sa kanila.
"Fay, this will be a 50/50 chance of a successful plan. Ni hindi natin alam kung ano ang gagawin niya sa 'yo pag sumugod ka sa mansyon."
"Kuya, this will be a successful plan. Trust me," I assured him.
"And you are going to take that mansion down, huh? What a grand plan, Louiseanna." si Ericka.
I just rolled my eyes at her and then looked at the man beside me who is still not happy because of my plan to take my father down.
"Dimitri," I called him softly as I placed my hand over his chest.
Still, he is looking so angry and pissed while looking at Romeo as he sipped on his drink. I giggled because of that.
"I just convinced Romeo to do what he has to do. My father trusted him so much kaya naman he just needed to play along." paliwanag ko sa kanya.
"I just got you back, Phaedra and now you are planning on a suicide mission." may diin niyang sabi habang hawak-hawak na ang kamay ko.
"This is not a suicide mission, silly." natatawa kong sabi. "This is a plan for myself... leaving this hell that my father built for me."
I looked at Romeo because of that.
"What... What do you mean by that, Fay?" tanong ni kuya Eman.
"Mr. Roldan Silvestre purposely made Phaedra Louiseanna a living courier of that diamonds, hoping that someone will hunt her down and kill her." sabi ni Romeo.
"What the hell?" si kuya.
Dimitri's eyes is full of shock and he looked like he's hurt.
"Phaedra's real father had a protection program only for his first child and one and only daughter. That's why no one dared to lay a hand on her for the past years. Well, of course, except for the ones that doesn't know about the diamonds that's inside of her body." dagdag pa ni Romeo.
