Marrisa Bonifacio
Arriving at my Dad’s company, I was surprised to see my dad with some of his important staff outside and waiting for me with smiles all over their faces,
“Daddy……!!” I screamed in happiness and ran towards him engulfing him in a tight hug,
“Ohh.. my darling you look like the newest CEO”
“I know right….” I smile checking myself out, I look at the staff and saw all of them smiling and looking at me in an admiring manner
“Good morning….” I greeted them bowing my heads
“Come on darling shake hands with them all, you’re going to be their new boss, come on” Dad urged me,
“Uhhh…okay ” I smiled and started shaking hands with them, greeting them one after the other. Their faces were all beaming with smiles as they welcomed me warmly.
After the greetings, Dad took my hand and we all headed inside,
“We are we going…?” I whispered into Dad’s ear
”To the board room” Dad whispered back, a smile formed on my face when I look at dad to see his face beaming with smiles and contentment, I never knew Dad has been waiting this long for me to take over the company
We entered the board room, I was surprised to see all the members of the company including the none staff, all present just to welcome me. I felt touched and honored. I look at Dad with tears of Joy
“Thank you daddy,” I said and embraced him in a warm embrace this really means a lot to me, since I got married to Robert, this is the first time I felt special
“Good morning ladies and gentlemen, ” Dad started
“You all know I have a beautiful daughter that is supposed to have taken over the legacy of my company, now she’s back to swing off from where I stopped and take the company to a higher level”
“Wo……..!!!” The staff cheered in happiness and joy, Dad looked at me and whispered
“A little speech darling….”
“Okay” I smile and turned to the staff who has been looking at me expectantly
“Good morning you all, my name is Marrisa Bonifacio, as you all know here is my dad, the owner of the massive company, and I’m back to give you all my best. I’ll only be asking for your maximum support and operation, thank you…” I bowed my head
They clapped and cheered on me for a while before welcoming me.
The day passed by in a blur and I must say, Dad really has great and nice workers. I enjoyed my first day so much and I didn’t have the time to think about Robert. I came to work in Uber but right now I going back with my car which Dad gifted me,
Isn’t that great?
I drove into our house late in the evening, it’s my first day at work so I had a lot to do, I was exhausted, I stepped out of my car and close it before walking inside, I was shocked to see Robert sitting in the living room,
“What’s he doing at home today?” I asked myself inwardly, for some reason I feel happy
“Where are you coming from and who owns that car?” He queried immediately I walked inside, I ignored him, and started climbing stairs when he roared
”Where the fuck are you coming from by this time of the day?”
“And why the hell will you ask such a question…..?!!” I fired back turning toward him
“Fuck it Rissa you’re my wife”
“Wow…bravo….!!” I clapped my hands’ links a maniac
“I never knew I was married to you Robert, no remind me of how many days you slept in this house since we got married, and you asking me where I’m coming from now you ain’t serious….?”
“Rissa…..!!!!”
“Don’t shout my name bro, I’m not your mistress….!!” I thundered
“Let’s divorce if this is how you’re going to start whoring around” He lashed at me
I smirk and climb down the stairs, standing before him, I speak
“People like you who do not value relationships, should not stand in judgment of anybody else, why do you suddenly care about my movement like you sleep in this house….”
“Rissa it’s my house and I have the right to live how I want”
“Well news flash darling, expect the same attitude from me, cause how you treat me determines my behavior, good night” I muttered and brushed my shoulders against his before walking upstairs.
I entered our room and slammed the door shut, I rested my back against the door and sighed, I really misses him today, even though I try to deny it a thousand times I do, all I wanted to do downstairs was to pull him in a right hug and intake his sweet cologne but not I did everything to stop myself cause I don’t want to continue giving him the upper hand
I dropped my bag on the table and stripped off my clothes before walking into the bathroom. A nice bath and good rest is all I need.
Minutes later, I came out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel and was shocked to see Tobert seating on the bed waiting,
I walk towards the closet and picked one of my nighties, I walk into the dressing room, and came out seconds later to see him having a video call with Rose,
My chest tightened, I knew he’s doing that to get back at me, but I’m not going to give him the impression he’s looking for, I walk towards the wine bar in our room and poured myself a cup of champagne, I brought out my laptop which Dad gifted me today, I connected music through my phone, and plug my earpod to my ears
I was sipping on my champagne while listening to music, and same time walking,
Trying my best to act like I don’t care while all I do was break inside, but it’s better than being a weakling
I felt my earpod being disconnected from my ear, I look up to see Robert standing beside me in anger
“Rissa, what’s all this…?”
“Excuse me..?” I gestured looking at my laptop can’t he see I working
”Why are you acting weird, Rossa?”
“Cut the bulshit, Robert, you wanted me to be listening to the trash you discuss with your mistress on the phone…?”
“Well I’m sorry to disappoint you, I’m a busy woman now, I’ve got lots of work to do” I shunned him off and connected my earpod back to my ear, resuming my typing.
