Inis na tinapon niya lahat ng kaniyang gear nang makapasok siya sa kanilang head quarter.
"Sinong tanginang nag-isip ng ideyang yun?! Ba't di niyo na lang ako hinayaang tuluyan na lang ang Yura na 'yon?!"
"Shut up!" Naiiritang suway sa kaniya ni Sofi.
"Don't you shut up me, imbecile mule! Kung wala kang maisip na magandang ideya mas mabuting ikaw ang manahimik, wala kang kwenta."
"You bitch!" Akmang susugurin ito ni Sofi ay agad itong napigilan ng mga kasamahan nila.
Nilapitan naman siya ng kaniyang pinsang si Emma.
"Cous, relax."
"Relax? How?! Palpak tayo, palpak!"
Nagpupuyos ang kaniyang kalooban nang hindi sila magtagumpay sa kanilang operasyon. Kating-kati na siya kanina na tadtadin ng bala si Yura Gladiola, pero sinabihan lang siyang daplisan lang ito.
But dammit! She didn't expect na may maagap na sasalba dito, and that includes Chamber Laxel.
"All of you, leave." Bei said sternly, and his gaze pointed at her. "Except you."
Napakunot ang kaniyang noo.
Ano naman ang kailangan nito?
Hinintay niyang magsi-alisan ang kaniyang mga kasamahan bago ito tanungin.
"Ano, hahayaan mo na lang ba na ganun na lang? Wala ka man lang gagawin para makaganti?" Tanong niya sa lalaking pormal na naka-upo sa dulo ng conference table, walang emosyon ang mukha at mukhang kalmado lang ito.
"What happened earlier, proves that Chamber Laxel treasures that woman from anything else. You get me?"
Natigilan siya sa sinabi nito. Yeah, he's right. That Chamber Laxel won't show up like a superhero just to save that woman's ass if she's nothing.
"That was our play today so no need to rush or pressure yourself. We'll get on that point soon so keep your cool for a while, you hear me?" Kalmadong saad nito na para bang hindi sila nawalan ng mga tauhan dahil sa pangyayari kanina.
Her blood boils due to her anger but she has to chill.
"I'll hold on to that." Sagot niya. "Can I leave now?"
He gave her a curt nod and she turned her heel towards the door.
"Jone,"
Muli siyang napalingon kay Bei.
"What?"
Binigyan siya nito ng munting ngisi. "You already knew what to do next, correct?" Makahulugan nitong wika.
Siya naman ang napangisi. "Of course, my lord."
"See you next time."
