"Brandon?" Stephanie responded that she was surprised to see him at the hotel. "Did the both of you come here together?" she queried him aptly. Picking up her stuff from the ground with him. "You mean?" Brandon asked skeptically to find out if it was Andallio she was referring to or someone else."Olvido? I left the room angrily because he showed up at my door. I wanted space, and that was why I left the glass house," Stephanie ranted."Could it be Andallio wasn’t there to see her?" Brandon wondered. "What about you? Cheating on your wife, huh?" Stephanie mushed lightly. "Don’t act like you don't know what’s up between I and Kimberly. Okay, just forget it. Have a nice stay, I’ll get going," Brandon uttered. He stared a bit and watched which room she entered before going back to the restaurant. Vanessa was there, seated angrily in their reserved spot. "Hey Vanessa, you didn’t leave?" "Yes Brandon, I’ll leave in the evening, I don’t feel like going home now," she responded
GRANDMA PILLAR. The whole family was dressed in white; the cars that graced the venues were white; everything there aside from nature’s design was also white. It was the theme of the party to honor Grandma Pillar’s memory. Her favorite color was also white.The program started, and Andallio, the new head of the family, ordered that the security be increased and her body be placed in a closed coffin. The whole family was present, even the five who graced the wake. They paid their final rites to her, and it was time for her to be buried. They buried her in the innermost part of the glass house. It was time for Don Soriano to give his speech. He mounted the podium and shed tears before he started talking."She built this house from scratch, every san, brick by brick, and I think it’s justifiable that her final place also be this house. Thank you all for coming," he uttered shortly and came down from the stage. He stopped by Brandon’s table, heaving a great sigh before sitting beside
AT THE MANSIONBrandon woke up, stretching out tiredly. He took his cellphone and checked the time. "3:00 am," he muttered. He took a glance at Vanessa, and she was fast asleep. He chuckled and got out of bed. He got dressed and called customer service. He ordered a new car and a chauffeur."It will be ready in a minute, sir," the receptionist replied formally.He sat on the bed beside Vanessa and held her hands for a minute. He kissed them softly and tucked her inside the bed. "You can hate me, but don’t hurt yourself," he uttered, stepping out of the room. He went to the reception for his order, and the car was waiting outside for him and the chauffeur he requested. "Have a nice day, sir," the receptionist said.Brandon smiled softly in response to her gesture. He entered the car and used his seat belt."Listen driver, you’ll drop me off at the road; my woman is still in our room; wait for her and get her to this location; it’s an order," Brandon commanded. "Yes, sir," he rep
"Yo cambien, it means a change in English; are you sure that’s what you want? It comes with a weighty price, Brandon," TorIllio said to him. "Why don’t we talk for a while in my office? I could have done this without you, but now that you’re here, the more the merrier," Torillio added. He invited Brändön over to his lounge in the jewelry store."Ain’t you scared? No bodyguards today?" "She’s outside, and they can see me, so it’s useless following me here," Bradon replied. They had their seats on the sofa next to the window."Wine?" Torillio asked. "Why is there a ……." Brandon asked, squeezing his pointed finger, and accepted Torillio’s drink offer. "When will you renounce the elders? I fear you have only a few minutes to do that. Not only RAD is after you, like I said before, but many more and the five. They’ll soon summon you," Torillio threatened politely with a warm, welcoming gesture."How’d you know all this? I know you’re in the family; I don't know you’re in the f
THE NEXT MORNING. "A press conference? Isn’t that too soon?" Estrellia asked Brandon."No, the earlier the better; the five requested it; I have to," Brandon replied softly. He got dressed for the big occasion. "The venue is at the company, sir; do you want to change your mind?" Estrellia asked, tendering her way into making him choose another venue or cancel the press conference."Get the car ready; Esmeralda will be there, and I don’t want to keep anyone waiting," Brandon replied. After he saw her off yesterday night, she returned the signed papers’ and they both finalized announcing it the next morning after informing the five. Brandon dressed up in a wine tuxedo with matching leather shoes and a diamond-encrusted Richard Mille wrist watch. He took his body spray and used some of it. "Huuuuh, I never thought it'd turn out this way, but here we go, Brandon, happy second marriage to you," he said to himself. He took his cellphone and the pistol from the bed. He place
"My father! He’s in danger! Torillio he’s in here; find him!" Brandon roared. He summoned Estrellia. "How long will it take by car to get to Bulacan?" "You always forget you own a helicopter, sir; we will be there in no time," Estrellia replied. She called on their men to get the helicopter ready. I "I’ll entrust things to you here; go see the five in case I don’t return very early," he said to Esmeralda. He got on the helicopter and left for Bulacan.Esmeralda was a bit confused but soon got composed. Brandon’s men stopped Torillio from leaving, and she decided to have a word with him. "Lucky you again? How did you get him too marry you?" Torillio said to her "I know you Torillio, what’s your plan? Are you going after his son or his father?" Esmeralda replied lowly as she moved closer to him."Both but to hit him where it really hurts, I have to break his bones; that’s what I am doing. Happy married life," Torillio replied."Yo cambien looks good on you so bad your lover
"Murder?" "What are you saying? You don’t mean it; I went there to save him!" Brandon replied ardently, unable to comprehend the allegations they leveled against him. "You have to get a lawyer, Brandon; arrest him!" Jordan commanded his men. Estrellia got into their midst again. "Boss think about this again; don’t go with them; if you do, the five will make you pay for dishonoring them," Estrellia warned Brandon again. "I am innocent, and I will prove it to you that I didn’t kill my father!" Brandon replied calmly. He stretched his hands forward toward Jordan himself."Take me; I’ll prove my innocence without the help of the five; you failed twice, and this will be your third," Brandon coerced. Jordan cuffed him and walked out of the office first, leaving Brandon to follow. "Sir Brandon, don’t! You must not surrender," Estrellia hurled, ready to fight if only Brandon would just give her the go-ahead. "Hurry up, take me away, start your investigation; I won’t be spend
RAD visited his hideout in manila to strengthen his forces and move his loyalist to the glass house. Now that Don Soriano was dead and out of the way he planned on revealing his identity to the world and his family. “Congratulations,” Fredrick exclaimed as Andallio walked past his cell with his armed men. “Hey, I almost forgot about you and your proposal,” Andallio responded retracting his steps back to the cell. “I’m honored, so do I get in?” Fredrick asked. Andallio grinned as he arched on the cell reels. “What if I said yes?” Andallio replied. Fredrick leaped elatedly. “Get him out and dress him, we have a visitor coming, he was the first to pull off my real identity,” Andallio instructed his men. They set his free and took him inside one of the room to get changed. He was set and they took him to meet Andallio. He was resting beside the pool frolicking with some girls and drinking wine. Loud music was always playing. A white car drove in without any restricti
