Susan felt the blood drain from her face; she hadn't expected to come across such a scene before her eyes, and even her legs felt weak.
"Susan," Gabriela made a feeble attempt to cover herself, but it remained just that - an attempt.
"I, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt your moment." Susan was determined to leave, but Arturo was faster, and he took her to another office, leaving Gabriela alone in hers. "Let go of me, Arturo. I didn't mean to interrupt your intimate moment. Now we're even, I committed adultery, and so have you. We can peacefully proceed with the divorce."
Arturo cornered her against the desk, there was no more room to retreat, his shirt still unbuttoned, his skin warm. Susan's small hands rested on his chest.
"Apparently, you're doing great," her hands settled on her waist. "And that's why you've come looking for me."
"I came to ask for a divorce, and nothing can stop that now. You and I are getting divorced; it's almost as if we're not married anymore. You love my sister.You've already been intimate with her."
"Does it bother you that I'm intimate with her?" Arturo's voice sounded hoarse.
"It doesn't bother me at all. In fact, I'm glad you're sorting things out. I'll see you tomorrow at the Civil Affairs Office." Susan swallowed and attempted to move away from him.
"Just shut up," Arturo stepped back from her. "No, we're getting a divorce."
"I'll tell the judge that we've committed adultery. Besides, I plan to file a complaint against your mother. Then you and I won't be amicable. We'll only be members of a deteriorating marriage."
"What are you going to do?" Arturo approached the woman again, and this time Susan truly felt small in front of him.
"It was your mother who ordered them to beat me, it was your mother who gave me two pills."
"You're not going to do anything, Susan. I warn you," Arturo left the office where he had taken them, and Susan followed him. There, she encountered her sister. "Let's go, Gabriela, I'll take you."
The couple left, Gabriela had already changed clothes, and Susan also decided to distance herself. She didn't know how Arturo would react to her threat of reporting his mother, but she was tired of this whole situation. The effect of the medication was wearing off, so she took a taxi and returned to Daniela's house.
When she took her pills, she had found a phone that her friend no longer used and decided to text Arturo - If we get divorced, I won't report your mother. Just give me the divorce. The message was sent successfully.
Susan waited for a response that never came. Daniela didn't arrive early; evening fell, and Susan felt movement. She opened her eyes in confusion, finding herself in someone's arms.
"If you speak or do anything, it will be worse." Arturo's voice scared her, but she knew she had to remain silent. When the man closed the vehicle's door, Susan hoped he would...
"Why are you doing this?" Susan glared at the man carrying her.
"What I do has nothing to do with you." Arturo grabbed her chin and forced a kiss upon her, a kiss Susan resisted until he finally let go.
"You can be sued for trespassing on private property."
"Uncle was thrilled to see me carrying my wife in my arms. There's nothing that a few kind words can't achieve."
"I hate you." Susan turned her head, looking at the scenery of Daniela's villa.
"From now on, we will live in Villa Florida, and you will be like my domestic employee."
"Arturo, are you serious?" Susan looked at him again. "Why do you want to keep torturing me?"
"Are you sure I'm torturing you? Because when we have sex, I know you enjoy it."
"I also enjoyed it with the other one." Susan didn't look at him anymore, so she didn't realize that the hands gripping the steering wheel had tightened. An hour later, they had arrived at Villa Florida. The view of the Villa was chilling, as the house was surrounded by a circular forest, but from the back, there was a spectacular view of the beach.
A considerably sized house with 5 floors in height had welcomed them. Before Susan could react, a small bark was heard, and she lowered her gaze to find a little puppy. The woman's green eyes lit up at the sight of the puppy.
"Hello, little friend," Susan wasted no time in picking him up.
"His name is Jack," Arturo said, without stopping to look at them. The man immediately made his way inside the house while Susan was enchanted by the small dog.
In a boardroom, a group of 6 men and 3 women gathered.
"The strongest competition we have here is the Lacronte Business Group. We must find the President's weakness and then destroy his company to be at the top. It's something we will definitely achieve; no one can go against the Narcotics Leader," one of the women stated.
"That's right," another confirmed. "We will attack the CEO's weak point and destroy him."
