INICIAR SESIÓNTo save the company she once didn’t care about from falling, Daniella Veyra tried to convince the CEO of Rousseau Holdings herself. His condition was her submission. Damien Rousseau wanted control. He wanted her in his office, in his deals, in his bed. He thought if he owned her, he’d stop wanting her. But Daniella doesn’t break. She negotiates. She fights. She makes him feel. And slowly, the man who never begged for anything starts begging for one thing: Her. To stay. 90 days to save a company. One condition that ruined them both. And an ending neither of them saw coming: Him on his knees. Begging her not to go.

Daniella's P.O.V I hate galas. So while everyone was busy socializing, I'm here on the balcony of Rousseau Tower,barefoot, my heels beside me. Wine in one hand, phone in the other. Looking up cafes in Cebu. Inside, my dad was in a meeting. Rousseau Holdings wanted to buy Veyra Textiles, our company. My dad's company, I mean. Hindi naman Ako interisado sa mga bagay na yan. I just wanted a simple life back in Mama's hometown. "2.1 billion pesos." I wasn’t supposed to hear it. But the conference room door was open. “Mr. Veyra,” a man’s voice. Cold and professional. I’ve seen him around.Rousseau Holding's COO. Lucas Reyes. “We’re prepared to offer 2.1 billion. We need you're company and I'm sure Veyra Textiles won't survive without us.” “No. Veyra Textiles is not for sale.” Dad's voice was calm and sounded like final. Another pause. “With all due respect sir, you’ll regret this. Our offer is the highest you can get. Hindi na kayo makaka-tanggap nang ganito kalaking offer.” "I appreciate your offer but I won't change my mind.” Footsteps. I scrambled behind a pillar like a spy in a movie pero parang napahiya pa ako nang muntik na akong matumba. I forgot na nasa gilid lang pala ang heels ko. Dumbass. Lucas walked out. Stopped. Looked straight at me. Didn’t say a word. Ngumiti lang siya nang bahagya at umalis na. Hopefully sana hindi niya iyon nakita. Dad came out 2 minutes later. “Anak, let’s go.” “Did it go well?” I asked habang pinupulot ang heels ko. “Its done, that's all I can say.” he said. I nodded. 2.1 billion gone and all he can say is 'Its done.' And it's fine, but think of what our family can do with that money. Pero ano namang magagawa ko? Anak niya lang Ako. Hindi na Ako nagsalita at sinundan nalang siya. --- ROOFTOP BAR It's already 11:30. Hindi ko na sinamahan si papa sa "pakikipaghalubulo" niya sa mga negosyante sa gala, Instead nandito Ako Ngayon sa Rooftop bar. Halos lahat nang mga anak nang mga nasa gala nandito. Maybe just like me, nabo-bored din Sila sa mga pinag-uusapan nang mga parents namin. One guy caught my attention. I mean..not just me. Halos lahat nang babae dito napatingin sa kaniya. Para siyang masarap na ulam na pinaglalawayan nang mga babae dito. Well... I don't blame them. He looks so good and so damn hot. Napakurap-kurap Ako nang makitang papalapit siya sa kinatatayuan ko. I don't know if it's just because of the drinks that I think he's looking at me or HE is looking at me. "Wanna dance?" May lalaking nagsalita sa gilid ko na ikinagulat ko. Tumaas ang dalawang kilay ko. Me? Is he talking to me? Tumingin Muna Ako sa kaliwa at sa kanan, pati narin sa likod para siguraduhin na Ako nga ang kausap niya. "Sure" Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko at hinila Ako sa dancefloor. We we're dancing just fine but then I felt his hands slowly moving towards my ass. Bigla ko siyang naitulak sa gulat. Hell no! Yeah he is cute but he's not my type at all. "The hell are you doing?" I rolled my eyes and walked away when he snatched my hands and pulled me. Napapikit na lamang Ako nang biglang may tumayo sa harapan ko. Imbis na bumalik Ako sa lalaking humila sa akin ay nabungo Ako sa likod nang isa pang lalaking ito na tumayo sa harapan ko. The man's grip loosen then I looked at this man in front of me. He's tall 6'3 or so. Ang aga namang dumating nang savior ko. I took a step back. Hindi ko ma explain ang mukha nang lalaking nambasto sa akin habang napatingin ito sa lalaking nasa harapan ko Ngayon. He looked afraid,like he's not going to see the sun shine tomorrow. Napakunot ang noo ko then the man in front of me turned. Then I saw him. That guy na parang gusto nang lahat nang babae kanina! Dark eyes, almost black. Straight nose, the jawline! UGHHHH!! LULUHURAN! Napa-tikhim Ako. He reached out his hands. Hinawakan ko din naman kaagad iyon. Hinila niya Ako paalis nang dancefloor. We entered a private room. Walang tao, tahimik at uulitin ko! Walang tao! "Have a seat." Napatitig lang Ako sa kaniya. May kinuha siyang panyo na nilagyan niya nang ice. Lumapit ito sa akin at kinuha ang kamay ko at inilagay doon ang panyo na may ice. My wrist was red. Galing iyon sa lalaking nambasto sa akin kanina. Masyado kasing mahigpit ang pagkakahawak nito sa akin. "Thank you." Sabi ko sa kaniya. "If I won't, who would, right?" He replied. Ngumiti ako sa kaniya. "And I'm glad you did. How ever can I thank my savior?" Napatitig Ako sa lalaking ito. He saved me. And what's the best way to thank him? "Is this a private room?" Tanong ko. Tumango ito. Binawi ko ang kamay kong hinahawakan niya at tinungo ang pintuan sabay lock nito. Kanina pa umiinit ang pakiramdam ko pero I was not sure about that guy kanina. "I know a perfect way to say thank you." Lumapit Ako sa kaniya. Itinulak siya sa couch. Walang bakas nang pagkagulat sa mata niya. He's like 'I know you need a fuck kaya okay lang'. Sisihin niyo din siya cause when I look at him, I'm like I wanna have a taste! ! WARNING! Explicit scenes ahead!!!! Lumuhod Ako sa harapan niya at bubuksan na sana ang zipper nang pantaloon niya nang pigilan niya ako. "Are you sure?" Do I look like I'm not sure? "Why? You want to do me first?" Tumaas ang isa kong kilay at nginitian siya. Napasinghap ako. Hindi ko alam kung papaano pero nandito na Ako Ngayon sa couch at siya naman ang nakatayo sa harap ko. "Pleasures all mine."DANIELLA Nagkakagulo na.Reports flocked at us. Asking questions. Wanting to know everything between us.Inalalayan ako ni Damian sa pagbaba nang stage. Pinipigilan nang mga bodyguards ni ang mga reporters na lumapit sa amin.He came prepared.Wala Naman siyang mga bodyguards pag nasa mga meeting siya or may pupuntahan, pero ngayong gabi Marami Sila."Hold my hand. Don't let go."He whispered and I nodded."Damian...Maraming reports sa labas. Hindi tayo makalabas sa entrance and even on the exit of the building."Lucas was walking with us.May kausap ito sa cellphone."We'll take the chopper."Tumango lang si Lucas at binalik ang phone sa tenga. Nagpunta kami sa elevator. Ilang sandali lang ay nasa rooftop na kami nang building, naghihintay na sa amin ang private helicopter ni Damian."Teka saan tayo pupunta?"Napatigil Ako sa sa paglalakad."You can't go back sa hotel mo Ms. Veyra. News spread fast. Baka Ngayon alam na nang media kung saang hotel ka nags-stay."Si Lucas ang sumago

Until now.All this I'm I was the one refusing to meet with the woman I've been searching for."What's up boss."Napatitig ako sa pintuang lumuwa kay Lucas.I grabbed a folder and throwed it at him."Her name was Daniella you dumb idiot!"Hindi ko maiwasang mapasigaw.Actually It was also my fault.The only lead I had when I started looking for her is the name 'Ella'.But it was just a nickname!"Boss kalma...I didn't even know na siya pala Yun."Napatitig ako sa couch na nasa harap nang desk ko.
