Chap 42

"Have you lost your mind?" I asked in a rather high tone.

His jaw clenched. "I just want a progress regarding the hotel."

I stopped and closed my eyes tightly to calm down. I don't care if he's in front of me, if he sees my annoyance.

"I'm coming with you," he said firmly (in Tagalog) .

My patience seems to have run out at that moment. I quickly grabbed him by the arm and pulled him into my office. Then I closed the door and stared intently at him.

"Once and for all, let's talk," I stated.

He raised an eyebrow. We were only about a meter away from each other. I could clearly see him staring back, but unlike me he was calm.

"What are you doing, Agustine? Why are you doing this?" I spat, removing the formality.

Slowly, amusement was written all over his face. "Do what?"

I gritted my teeth. "You are pestering me," I pointed out.

His side lip slowly rose. He stared at me for a second, then let out a chuckle afterwards.
