"DARC'S POV"
"Come in" I instructed to that person and concentrate on these documents that needed to be signed without turning a sight to whoever knocked and had come to my door.
"Sir Winsztonn, Mr. Bermondt is—"
"Daarrcccyyy!!" he screamed like a girl and throw himself on the couch. I did not gave him a look and continued to pay attention to my duties. I have a lot of work to complete for this week, and critical tasks must be completed as quickly as feasible.
" 'Sup gorgeous?" I glare at him darkly. I can tell what is going through his mind right now. He is in need of something at the moment. It has nothing to do with financial, the mafia, or business, 'cause it's all about his relationshits. Yeah, this is how girly Yandré is.
"Darc, don't be such a p*ssy. Aren't you gonna hug your handsome frie—"
"How about I hug your neck with that thing?" I said referring to the chain collar on the other couch beside him.
"What are you up to Bermondt?" Ganiyan 'yang tarantado na 'yan pag may kailangan. Ngumuso naman siya ng napakahaba. Kadiri ang king *na.
"Well, as I was saying... my woman is going crazy" inis na kuwento niya.
"Tss. 'Wag mo kong idamay sa kabalastugan mo"
"Come on Darc, you're the expert here! I'll offer you 500,000 sets of cutting-edge explosive devices. Incendiary and blasting"
I gave him a blank look. Up until I resigned, this person won't stop bugging me. Furthermore, I must receive something from him in exchange so he could get what he wants. Yes, that is how we make deals in such manner.
"I'll double it"
"..."
"Plus 10 yachts"
"..."
"Plus 50 jet planes"
I mocked him, "Is that an offer?! You have no idea how to negotiate." Why would I accept the offers when I already have those? He took hold of the chain collar and hurled them directly at me, but I caught it in an instant.
"Tch! May mabebenefit ka rin dito, 'wag ka ng umangal"
I sneered, "Tss," and recalled that I had previously ordered him for something. I picked up the phone and dialed my secretary.
"Yes, Sir? Good morning" she answered sweetly and moaned at me. I looked at Yandré as he raised an eyebrow. The hearing power of this assh*le just made me grin.
"Sched?"
"Lunch meeting with the investors, 3 pm with Mr. Takashiba, a-and 5 pm with Miah"
Napatingin akong muli kay Yandré ng marinig ko ang kalatik ng bibig niya.
"Date me sir, please?" pagmamakaawa niya. Kung hindi ko lang nagagamit 'tong malanding 'to, matagal ko na 'tong binuro sa ilalim ng lupa. She's the cheapest kind among them, and a desperate one.
"Cancelled it all. And for being such a b*tch, additional 5 hours of your work time for a straight 2 weeks and no vacancy for lunch!"
Hindi porke nakakalapit siya sa akin ay ikakama ko siya.
"Oh my god! No, Sir—" I hunged up the phone to cut her off and face this big sh*t in front of me. He laughed at me, "How harsh of you"
Binigyan ko lang siya ng walang kuwentang tingin at nang makaramdam siya ay saka siya nagsalita. "My wife and I had some fight last week—"
"HAHAHAHAH!" I laughed at him hard hearing and watching at how he was so desperate right now. He glared at me so I laughed even harder. "Just get straight to the point Bermondt I don't have time for you being a romcom"
"Tch! At least I got her and make her my wife"
"Your shared past is not to be envied" I said mockingly, knowing their history.
"I'm going to try my best to talk to her nicely into coming to Lavleand with me." sabi niya at hindi pinansin ang pang-aasar ko.
I shake my head in disagreement. "How could you brought her nicely there if she's mad at you? Stupid!"
I am not a marriage counselor to take an interest in Yandré's problems. But since we've been friends since then, kung ano ang katarantaduhan niya ay magiging katarantaduhan ko rin and vice versa. Ganiyan namin idamay ang isa't isa.
"What should I do??"
"That's lame" ngisi ko sa kaniya.
"Lame na kung lame! B-Basta gusto ko siyang dalhin—"
"Oh eh di dalhin mo. Kidnappin mo, takutin, saktan kung kaya ng konsensiya mo. Tss, she's not the one who is crazy, but you"
"Tch! Magkaiba tayo kumilos"
"Then do what works for you. Tsk, nagiging bading ka na naman eh"
"Gusto ko nga sana kidnappin kaso mapapaghalataan niyang ako rin ang may plano. I badly wanted to surprise her but I can't just bring her there nang basta basta. I come up with an idea, just help me with her and I'll tell you the outcome of my inquiry about your 'business' "
"Settled" I said and wait for him to speak up so his smile widened.
"I sent you an email. Just checked the pictures and files there. This is a huge issue Darc, not just for you but even more for her. If they sniffed out something off they might dig deeper. But since the organization is extremely challenging to go out against they can't perform investigation and incriminate us"
"What's the real case then?" This might be a very serious case.
"At first she's a candidate for Larceny. But after 4 months since 2 years had passed, the other parties proven that she's really a part of the heinous crime though she's just a victim too. But yeah, she's facing money laundering, fraud, and heist"
I grinned widely when I heard the words and he looked at me with a frown.
"Now, what are you up to Winsztonn?" he imitated what I said earlier. He knows I have plans in my head.
"You'll know soon"
"What kind of business is that for you to be concerned about?" he repeated so I just smiled at him. I can't just spill my ideas, though he's my friend, he's not an exception.
"Uncle Rexor should know about this. He won't like it if you gonna kept this 'business' hidden from him"
"He's clever. He'll know soon enough" Rexor is my father's brother and he's operating the Mafia for now while I am covering up the issue about the organization while building a new system.
He grabbed his phone and shook his head in annoyance "How's her?" I asked, referring to his wife.
"Maids says she's acting out again. She's seriously mad, dude! I can't even talk to her properly for her being disrespectful. And she's draining the heck out of my patience!"
"Take care of it then. I'll meet Rexor later, you should come"
" 'Course. I'll just handle this b*tch into behaving" He stood up angrily.
"You won't kill her" I grinned evilly.
"No. I'll rape her" and we laughed in sync.
"Come on Dré, give her some love. She's your wife" I sarcastically said. He stopped and turned to me again.
"Woah! Coming from a person who f*cks? Shut up dude!"
"By the way, are you really serious about her?"
I did not answer and just look at him questioningly.
"Tch! You know who"
"Tss. It's not your concern anymore"
"You won't kill her, will you?"
"It depends. If she's smart, she'll live" I smirked.
"HAHAHAH! Hindi mo siya pag-aaksayahan ng oras kung may iba ka pang agenda"
"We are not the same Bermondt. You play for fun. I play serious"
"Seryoso ako sa kaniya. Siya lang ang may ayaw. Tch! Masyadong pahard to get!"
"Force is force. It's up to you how will you handle her"
"At least I'm way more gentleman than you. Baka pagsawaan mo din 'yan, mas lalo mo lang siyang pahihirapan"
"You know me. When I want something hindi ko yon basta basta pinakakawalan. I don't care if she suffers, if that feeds the game more"
"BWAHAHAH! Tsk, tsk. Good luck to her life"
"Good luck to your wife!"
