Homepage/Monteverde's Obsession/
Part 2
Chapter 5
“Love do I need to come to your meeting?” Felisa asks while putting on her makeup. Ezekiel wants to take her with him in meeting the second billionaire. She didn't have an idea why she needs to come but at the same time, she is excited to meet the wife of Axiel Monteverde.
“Do you want my secretary to go with me instead?” Ezekiel smirked while saying that. Knowing that her wife is jealous of his secretary. Who is sexy even if she has a husband and daughter.
“Try and you will sleep in the living room. Why can't you fire nor replace her? Do you have an affair with that girl? Just transfer her to the other company but not where you are. Are you trying my patience Ezekiel.” madness is visible in her words. It's like she wants to kill that girl.
“So that's why I will bring you with me wherever I go now to lessen your misconceive towards us. I will transfer her to US when her husband got a job there too. He is still processing his papers. So please be patient Love. I assure you that I didn't cheat on you to her.” he tells his side and defends himself. He loves her so much to cheat. They are old enough not to do that. Their life is short so they need to find their granddaughter.
“I trust you but you can't deny that she is sexy and beautiful unlike me. And thank you for considering my feelings Love. Sorry for thinking bad about you two.” She admits her mistake and says sorry. Finally, her trust regain.
“Are you done, Love? Can we go now?” he asks and spray his perfume.
“Yes and let's go. I'm excited to meet her.” she giggled and get her things. Wearing her new white dress in the latest design, simple but elegant with her diamond earrings, necklace, and bracelet.
While they are in the living room, one of the butlers in the house gave her a violet paper bag that she accepts before they go outside the palace. Yes, the palace because it's similar to those royal palaces.
“What's that Love?” Ezekiel asks about the paper bag when they enter the car. The driver starts the engine when he signs him to go.
“It's for Monteverde's wife, a gift let's say. I have a feeling that we are related but I don't know why?” she think for a moment and said it. Ezekiel is shocked by what she said. Their feeling is the same. What a coincidence. He seconded immediately,
“Our feelings are the same Love but I don't know too why I feel that. I especially ask Axiel to come with his wife today.”
“It seems that we have a relation. We can as her later about that.” silence takes over after she speaks until they reach the Rivera Private Restaurant. It is one of the best restaurants in town. The ambiance of the place is relaxing. There isn't any noise every, very peaceful.
The manager assists them to the private room Ezekiel booked for the meeting. Two waiters are there to serve them. The room is spacious and well designed. The waiter put wine in their glass when they said so. It's okay to drink for a while when the others are not here yet. Wine calms them both.
Just a few seconds, the manager opens the door of the room and lets the person come in, no it's Axiel and his wife to be exact. The door is gently closed the two come in.
“Good morning Mr. Lorenzo. Sorry if we are late.” Axiel assured Lyn to their table while saying it. He encircles his hand to her waist while they are walking.
“It's okay. We just came to a while ago before you. Come and sit down.” Ezekiel said and invite them to sit. Sometimes girls are very slow to get ready.
‘What a beautiful young girl.’
‘A good catch for a billionaire.’
‘The seems innocent and valuable.’
‘Now I know why he is obsessed with his wife. It's hard to find a perfect package wife like her and especially my beloved wife too even sometimes she is amazona.’
“Let's order first before our agenda. Me and my wife didn't eat breakfast. I hope you understand.” Ezekiel suggests beside they have a lot of time to talk with. This meeting is for half day.
“Yes, we can Mr. Lorenzo. If it's okay, my wife has a few dishes she cooks especially for the two of you. She loves to cook so she suggests cooking for today's meeting. Is it okay?” Axiel presents his wife with dishes and lets them agree to taste them. Lyn will be disappointed if he didn't.
“Oww how lovely our. What's your name, young lady?” Felisa asks her? And even added,
“Don't be so professional Mr. Monteverde. You can call me aunt Felisa and uncle Ezekiel for my husband. Can we set aside the ranking at this moment? I didn't want to be called by our surname.” Felisa explained and lessen the tension of the atmosphere inside the room.
“It's an honor aunt Felisa. My name is Lyn, wife of Axiel. You can just call us by our names because you're older than us.” Lyn simply said full of respect. Meeting the wife of the first billionaire is intense, you can't even breathe normally as you wish.
“Okay, cut that then. What dish did you cook for us, Lyn? Is it Filipino foods?” Felisa said excitedly. It's like she loves Filipino foods. Seeing her eyes sparkle while mentioning Filipino foods tells a lot.
”Yes, it's all Filipino foods aunt Felisa. It's fried chicken, sinigang na bangus, lumpiang gulay, and lumpiang shanghai. I hope you would like them. It's my favorite dish and mom too.” Lyn takes out the paper bag Axiel is holding when they enter the room and place it on the table before opening each Tupperware while explaining what dish is that.
When she finishes speaking and takes a glance at Felisa, she is shocked. Felisa was stunned while glaring at those dishes she cook.
‘What happened to her?’
‘Didn't she like those dishes she cooked?’
By thinking of those thoughts she began to cry. Yes, it's her hormones again. She buried her head on Axiel's chest while crying which alarmed Axiel. He can't tell why she is crying at this moment. He gently caresses her back and asks,
“Hey, wife, what's wrong? Why are you crying?”
”They hate the dish I cooked Hubby huhuhuhu.” she complain and continue sniffing and crying. Now he understands, he looks at Felisa and Ezekiel that is shocked at what is happening and explains respectively,
“Sorry about this because my wife thought you hate her cooking and cried. It's because of her pregnancy hormones. I hope you understand.” being a husband, he needs to defend not explain on behalf of his wife in terms of an unexpected event like this.
“Oww we understand Axiel. Lyn, I'm just shocked at those dishes you prepare because it's all our favorite Filipino dishes. I like them all, no I love them. Sorry for my reaction earlier and stop crying now. Your baby will have a sour face when you gave birth when you always cry.” Felisa apologizes and brings out a joke to make her stop crying. She remembered when she coax her daughter before when she always cry when her husband go on a mission especially when she is pregnant.
“I want him/her to look like me, hmp.” Lyn dried her tears and answered.
The two boys listen to their conversation and didn't interrupt them. They order rice, some dishes to be added to what Lyn cooked, and also a strawberry flavor ice cream that Lyn ask for. They eat and enjoy their brunch with waves of laughter and teasing. It's not hard to mingle with them and they are open too.
”You two talk about your business and we two will have our separate table and talk as well. We don't to be a burden to your agenda. We can't relate to what you will talk about after all.” Felisa suggest and the two agreed. They didn't want their wives to get bored while they are talking about business.
They go to the garden outside at the back of the private restaurant. It is peaceful and amazing. The flower arrangements were stunning. You will drop your mouth as you enter the organized garden. In the middle of the garden, it has a mini house shaped that is made of flowers. It was they assemble it and let the flower crawl and finish the house.
A table for two was there, inside of it. It is made for special events like dates. Felisa ordered some dessert from the waiter that assist them there. This old lady wears her smile every time and it suits her. They say that smiling makes you younger and that's true.
“Are you comfortable with this Lyn? I hope I don't make you uncomfortable. Don't be shy to talk to me and share what you have right now. I know that marriage is not easy to deal with. Just think that I'm your mom so you will feel comfortable.” Felisa starts the conversation while their order is not here yet. She wants to know her more and also she wants to make her feel comfortable talking to her.
“I'm flattered aunt Felisa for your consideration. You remind me about my mom. She always cares for me before herself.” Lyn thanks her and wipe her tears that flow when she says it. Damn this hormone. It makes her shy with her emotions.
“You have a great mom Lyn. I also remind you about my daughter but yeah she's in heaven now. I hope your mom is like our granddaughter. Just kidding about that. So how's your marriage life? Being a wife of a billionaire was not easy as I experienced it to be.” Felisa let out a joke to lessen the atmosphere but she hopes it was true.
“We're okay and our marriage was fine. He is a perfect husband and I'm thankful for that. Not all married woman has a husband like our husband's.” Lyn answered in a voice that will tell you that what she says is true. Even her eyes sparkle while saying that she is thankful. So much love is visible in her eyes. Her eyes can tell everything without saying it.
“Yeah, we're lucky. So how about your pregnancy? First-time mom and dad treasure their incoming baby so much. Because when we have our daughter, we treasure her and give her everything she needs, we even spoil her because she is our only child. It's hard to have one child, see what happened to us so go yeah, and multiple as they say. The more the merrier.” she laugh in the last part she said. She is happy to go lucky woman. Everyone will be easy to get along with her.
‘What a happy woman.’
‘An open and easy to deal with.’
‘Hope she is giving her real attitude not the plastic one.’
Lyn is about to talk when the waiter comes back with their dessert, two red velvet cakes, strawberry ice cream, some cookies, and milk tea for them. He leaves when he places their order and gives them privacy.
“I'm a one-month pregnant aunt. My morning sickness gives me a hard time but Axiel is there with me to ease it. He gives me comfort when I have it every morning. Also for my cravings, he buys me everything I want to eat and he always says that our child also likes those so he/she lets me eat for him/her.” Lyn said while munching on the ice cream. She is not satisfied with the ice cream she ate a while ago. Felisa giggles at what she said and gives her a sweet smile.
“Do you want to visit us in our palace? You are always welcome there. Give me your phone and I will save my number in there as well as you in me. Let's talk on calls or text when you're free. I'm liking to be with you always. It makes me feel I'm with my granddaughter as well. Sorry but not sorry about that. Hope you understand,” she explains. Lyn smiled at her to say it was okay and they continue eating their desserts.
Felisa tells their love story until they get married. You can say after hearing it that true love will always make a way for you to meet again after many years when you're destined to each other. Their love story symbolizes that a long-distance relationship still works when you trust each other.
After a couple of hours, Axiel and Ezekiel find them in the garden. The two finished their agenda and need to find where their wives are. Thankly, a waiter informs them where they are.
“You two seem happy without us huh?” Ezekiel interrupts their conversation with a question. They unnoticed their approach to them because of their friendly talk. Yes, it's friendly talk because they treat each other as a friend. It's better than being uneasy.
“We are having good talk Love. I like to talk to her and I even invite her to our palace. I want to be with her, especially since she is pregnant now. I want to supervise her. Is it okay?” Felisa asks her husband about her decisions. Her husband's reaction is needed for it because asking your husband's side in every decision you make strengthens your relationship.
“Of course, it's okay Love. I'm happy that you find someone to be with while I'm in the office. I know that you are bored in the palace when I go to work. You must ask her husband about it too.” Ezekiel agreed to her decision but tell her to ask Axiel about it. Both sides must agree to avoid misunderstanding later. Felisa nodded and turn to Axiel to ask about it.
“Is it okay Axiel? Can you let your wife with me sometimes while we are finding our granddaughter?”
“Of course, you can aunt Felisa. But bear with her because she is hard-headed sometimes.” Axiel answered with a tease for Lyn.
“Now it's settled, can we go and have a coffee before parting our way?” Ezekiel ask that they agreed too. There is a coffee shop near the restaurant the Rivera family owns too. They order their best coffees and drink them while having a little chat. Not in business but about their marriage.Download Novelah App
