Chapter 17
"Miss Shamia, the title of the hacienda you bought in the province has arrived." Greeted by Pia who enter the office.
After another week, Shamia's parents were allowed her to go to work.
Well because her mother forbade the doctor to tell her that or because of too delicate to pregnancy mom said because of old age.
"When did you arrive?"
"Just now. It's already on your table. You still need to sign for ratification."
"Thanks." She greeted the secretary and then went inside the office.
She found the paper above her table so she signed it immediately.
Noon when routing her a call from the reception area. Maybe Pia immediately connected on the phone here in her office, so she answered it immediately because it might be important. It doesn't just immediately connect a call from below.
"Yes?"
"Mom, someone is looking for you here in the lobby."
"Who?"
"Kaiser Pineda, your former bodyguard. He was trying to go up there, I said you are still busy and then he said he would just wait here in the lobby until you are no longer busy."
Shamia massages her forehead due to sudden pain. Did she think that man had come home to them? For some unknown reason, it seems that something heavy in her chest has been lost due to the knowledge that she is looking for a man again.
Shit! What does it make me feel?
"Leave him alone. Just be careful that you can't climb here."
She was not sure about waiting for him. So she would just let it wait for nothing.
"Yes, Mam. Understood."
Again back to employment after the call. She needs to reduce the amount of work because she has important things to do later.
"Mom, someone delivered food for you," Pia said entering the room.
"Just put it there."
Right-back it suddenly came back. "Ah, I already got you some things from the mansion Mam. And that personnel that you sent to the hacienda you bought have already arrived."
"Okay good. How 'bout your things?"
"It's okay."
"Good. You may go! Arrange the work so we can leave."
AT two o'clock in the afternoon, her secretary returned to the office. "The chopper Ma’am is already in the helipad."
"Good. Let's go!" she said then stepped out and took the elevator to the company's helipad.
Not yet closing the elevator she saw that man catching up and he's closed. To her surprise, he was able to back away but fortunately, it did not reach yet.
What does it do above? Did it escape the guard below? Shamia's exact ride on the chopper was also its exit through the rooftop door.
"Shamia!!" He cries.
"Mom? Isn't that Kaiser? Will you still not talk to him?"Asked Pia.
The girl ignored what she said but watched Kaiser shout at the rooftop who tried to chase the aircraft until it reached the edge of the rooftop that a little movement would fall.
The fuck! Is he stupid?
She just stared at the man until the plane was completely gone.
Minutes later the two arrived at the hacienda she had bought.
The aircraft landed near the rest house of the hacienda. That is why the workers of the hacienda had just come downstairs when the maiden met her.
She looked for some particular face and she was not disappointed. They are there in the back of the staff.
Karlito. Belinda. Kobe. Kharis.
Kharis was still waving at her and was about to run closer but was immediately stopped by the men who were already here.
Yes! She bought the hacienda where the Pinedas lived. She doesn't know what's gotten into her and she thought of buying it.
Shamia went to the rest house were previously open in all but now owned that she no longer happen.
"Ma’am, we already got the plan to renovate the house. And the construction of the gate at the mouth of the land is already underway. The same goes for the guardhouse that will be built near the gate."
Meet the girl with one of the people she hired to help with the entire renovation of the house. "Okay good."
"And as you wish, we have summoned all the people who live within the hacienda."
"Give me a minute to rest, please!"
It immediately complied. Addressing the staff n to do everything to facilitate the work. They in turn when her secretary was also removed Mamma to when they spoke to everyone.
While they rest she called the mother. Maybe that's what it does again.
["Hello Mia? I'm fine, I'm not moving, I'm just sitting here in the living room."] She immediately explained when he answered the call.
"Just making sure mommy. Maybe that's what you're doing again huh!" It's still too reprehensible.
["No, do not even talk ... and you could even ask Nel."] Specific to married brother said. He took a deep breath because it was there and there was a guard.
"Okay. Bye!" goodbye's Shamia then killed immediately call a stand to speak to the people.
"Pia, where are you?" he looked for the secretary who had just disappeared next to him on the sofa.
The girl came out of the rest house and she caught up with the woman who was chatting with the people outside.
"Ma’am Shamia, are we meeting?"
"Yes."
She turned back to the interlocutors. "Settle down everyone. We're going to start the meeting."
Everyone who was still in a commotion was looking for a seat.
"Try to minimize your voice. I don't want the noise." Shamia said coldly. Especially and she saw Kaiser's woman's next to the man's family.
What is she doing here? Does he live here too? She frowned at the question to herself. Did he think it was from another barangay? So, all along the woman in the hacienda is also from here?
"Good afternoon to you." Pia greeted the people. Shamia remained standing in front. "This is Miss Shamia Gyllette San-"
The introduction of Ms. Alvaro cut because of the woman. "We know her! You don't have to introduce her anymore, you know she came here once, right Shamia?"
The real strength of this woman's heart. Hug the-bite.
"Yes." She ignored the answer.
She grinned. While people are confused to dispute them. She knew that some of the staff at the hacienda already knew her but not all. Because even though she lasted a few days. Because? Ah! I don't want to remember.
"Why go back yet?"
Shamia regretted what the woman in the back had said. "Nothing personal, just business." And she prompted Pia to continue.
"Ahm, As I was saying. This is Miss Sandler, and she's the new owner of the Hacienda and -"
"I want all of those who are not included in my place, out!"
There was already a commotion because of what she said. Even the Pineda siblings stood up but she ignored them. Pia looked at her in surprise. Not because that's what they discussed earlier before they travel.
They each have what they want to express and what they want to say. But he did not give them a chance.
"Now? I have here the new rules in this place. Pia, where is it? "
The secretary immediately complied to hand over the iPod containing the rules to the employer.
"First of all, everyone who just lives and not the staff inside, I want to leave, I'll give you a month to leave."
"But Ma’am, we have nowhere to go."
"A month? Where can we find a new place to live in a month?"
They are individual in speech but they only want one thing. Objection. But what stuck in her mind was what Kaiser's woman had said. "That's not fair! We are not leaving! How do we make sure you buy the hacienda?"
Her head heats up because of what she said. She smirks. "Are you studying? You acted like an elementary graduate."
She motioned to Pia again. She immediately took the copy of the title and handed it to the woman. She seemed embarrassed to see the title.
"Just like that, everyone who wants to stay here will sign the contract and follow the regulations within this area. And will make work in the hacienda." Shamia explains to everyone.
Almost everyone agreed. "Okay. It's settled then!"
She turned her back on everyone outside the rest house after the conversation. Pia followed immediately. She explained what she wanted to happen in the vast land.
Shamia explained that she wanted to happen at home. The second floor of the house one room only.
Added also to the staff who take care of animals and crops in the new personnel do not leave the hacienda. She has a lot to change in the area. She wants this place to be private from anyone whose not belong.
"YES mom, I'm going home."
["Hurry up hah, its night again where are you. Go straight to your house, not to your house. I cook."]
She was shaken by what she said. "Mom! I told you to stay still!"
["Daughter, your daddy is my cooking helper so it's okay."]
"Mom,"
["Just go home safe okay, Bye!"]
She immediately dropped the phone. The girl closed her eyes to rest for a moment. She didn't do anything in the area but she felt very tired.
Not that she did not bother with a single pin was Kharis earlier, not yet she could deal with a hitman who is close to circumvent most avoid her. So after her purpose in the area, she immediately boarded a chopper and prepared to leave.
I promise I'll come back.
