LET'S GET MARRIED!

C19- The deal

"You have a lovely smile, my son. For sure all girls will fall to you if you smile like that. It's mesmerizing," President Li's mother said when he was just a kid, and she caressed his both cheeks.

But after his mother died, he stopped smiling because he found no interest in anything. No one has ever made him happy ever since.

---

A kiss from the cheek woke up President Li from reminiscing. He looked at her meaningfully.

"Are you okay?" nag-aalalang tanong ni Aida na hindi inaalis ang kanang kamay nito sa left cheek ni President Li dahil napansin niya na bigla na lang siya naging bato.

"You're mine from now on. You cannot leave me anymore. Call me Yin," he stated earnestly, and with that, he crashed his lips to hers before she could reply back.

He kissed her possessively and affectionately, while she responded in every move. Pulling him more and more towards her body as they unite once more.

She moaned his name louder and lourder in every thrust he made. For the first time, she wanted it to happen. She wanted to feel and be filled by him.

The room is filled with their moans and kisses.

Eventually, they are both sitting in the headrest of the bed. She can't help, but glances at him as her mind is full of queries.

"I can feel your eyes on me. Ask away," wika ni President coolly, at lumingon siya sa kaniya to give her a look.

"I just have a few questions," banggit ni Aida na may pag-aalinlangan sa boses niya.

"Fire away," he repeated himself with a smirk.

"Why did you do that? Why did you kill that guy?"

"You saw it already so, I might as well tell you the details. And I bet you won't tell a single soul now since you know what I will do to you once you start to spill the tea," he told na may tiwala sa kaniya for the first time.

"Hell yes, that's true. I won't dare" she admitted.

Ngumiti si President nang nakita niya ang reaksyon nito.

"For starters, my mother died by an unknown man. And, Madame Diva Gonzales is my mother's best friend. When my mother died, Auntie helped me get up. She and my grandmother, Dad's mother because my mother's parents died already in a tragic car accident. Auntie Diva raised me where I am now. She taught me everything that I need to know in this world. She stood like a true mother to me. Then last week, I came to know that she had a one and only daughter. And I know, she didn't tell me she's suffering too because I've had a lot on my plate over the years. So, when I found out that her daughter has been missing for 22 years now, I want to help her to return the gratitude she gave to me. That guy you saw a while ago was the main suspect who took the child. I interrogated him to make him speak until he confessed. Now I told Carl to look for Mr. Feng, the man's debtor so, I can get to the bottom of the missing child and know where she is now," kwento niya na may emosyon sa mga mata niya.

"I see. However, I can't help but think. Are you some kind of Mafia?" she queried more.

"What do you think?" he gave her a look, letting her judge him.

"Well, did you kill a lot of people already?"

"Yes."

"Do you do drugs?"

"Being a Mafia is not all about drugs, you know."

"What do you do then?" taas-kilay niyang tanong dito.

"I do business. Give loans to companies that are going bankrupt. I am a good business partner. Just don't lie to me and the business is good. Because if you lie to me and I find out, then you're dead. No more second chances," he admitted.

"That's a relief then. How about your mother? Have you found the man who killed her?" she wondered, digging more.

"I haven't, but I already have a lead. I just need more evidence before I shove that person behind the bars," seryosong sagot niya na malayo ang tingin.

"If that is the case... can you help me too?" she bravely asked for a favor from him.

"You are being comfortable around me, aren't you? And you are asking for help," he smirked, asking her.

"I don't want to add to your problem, but the way you investigate makes me want to trust you. You know, I was an orphan. I never knew who my parents were. I wanted to know them before I died," she emotionally mentioned.

"Yes, I know your family background. I dug your profile when I was looking for you," pagtatapat niya sa kaniya, at umiwas siya ng tingin sa kaniya.

"You, what? And, why were you looking for me?" laking gulat niyang sambit.

"Because you left me in bed without a proper goodbye," he replied, at lumingon siya sa kaniya meaningfully.

"That's creepy," aniya, at umiwas siya ng tingin.

"So, you want me to help you?" he questioned back.

Na naging dahilan kung bakit napalingon siya ulit sa kaniya, at nagtitigan sila.

"You will help me?" Nagniningning ang mga mata niya as he gives her hope.

"Under one condition," he proposed in a serious tone of his voice.

"And what is that?" mataray na tanong niya.

"I can have you whenever I want," he directly mentioned na hindi kumukurap para ipaalam sa kaniya na hindi siya nagbibiro.

"Are you kidding me?" kulot noo na tanong niya dahil nainis siya sa gusto nitong mangyari.

"You choose. I will help you find your parents, or you will never see them again. With you by yourself looking for them without any lead, I don't think you can find them," he said with a smirk.

"I hate it when you smirk like that because you knew I don't have a choice," pagtatapat niya na may asar sa tono ng boses niya.

"You know it," komento niya, at ngumiti siya.

Napansin naman kaagad ni Aida ang bright smile nito na hindi niya maipagkakaila na ang gwapo niya tignan kung lagi siya nakangiti.

"I have one last question," banggit niya curiously.

"Shoot," he answered na mukhang handa sa mga tanong nito.

"Was it your mother's death the reason you never smile? You smile so little and often," nag-aalinlangan niyang tanong, at masyado na personal ang tanong niya na baka hindi na siya sagutin nito.

"After my mother's death, my father abandoned me. He immediately got married to his mistress. They got three children. Red, the older stepbrother, womanizer, who got married three times already. Blakey, my stepsister, the stubborn lawyer. And, Silver, my youngest stepbrother who is still in highschool and the only person in the family I get to talk to when I come back home. I am actually known as the black sheep in our family as I am the outcast. And I'm not gonna deny it anymore but, I fractured Red's left arm when he used my name without my consent. Because of that, my family hates me. And only my grandmother, and Auntie Diva truly understand me. So, I don't see any reason for me to smile," kwento pa niya na malayo ang tingin as he recalled his family.

"How about me? You smiled at me a while ago," nakangiting banggit niya na naging dahilan kung bakit tumingin siya sa kaniya.

Hindi kaagad sumagot si President Li, at pinagmasdan ang magandang ngiti nito.

"And that's why I looked for you. You were the only woman that I am actually comfortable to touch. I don't let any woman touch me, except my grandmother and Auntie Diva," he confessed without denying it anymore.

"So, you're telling me that you were a virgin too when we did it the first time?" tuwang-tuwa na tanong niya dahil she gets to tease him.

"Yeah," he replied, at ngumiti siya ulit brightly. "So..." banggit niya, at naging seryoso ulit ang mukha niya. "Is it a deal or, no deal? I'm gonna help you but, you have to agree to whatever I want to do with you," anunsyo niya.

"Fine. But, I have a condition too," taas-kilay na sambit ni Aida na biglang naging matapang.

"I'm listening."

"You can't kiss me on the lips anymore unless I agree. You have to ask for my persmission first before you kiss me," walang-hiya hiyang anunsyo niya to make it fair on her side.

"Ask you?" tanong niya, at hinablot niya ang batok nito para halikan ito sa labi ng mariin as he marks his territory.

She growled under her throat to that kiss habang tinutulak niya siya palayo. Hanggang sa he pulled away na naging dahilan kung bakit nagtitigan sila ulit.

"You cannot resist me," he commented with a sexy smirk, teasing her.

"Oh, yes, I can—"

Pero naudlot na ang sasabihin ni Aida nang bigla siya halikan nito ulit possessively, at may nangyari ulit sa kanilang dalawa na naging saksi ang malaking buwan sa labas ng bintana ng kwarto nila.

Itutuloy...
