Chapter 65
Vicenta covered her face with her palms and turned around. She was doomed. How could she have ratted her out without thinking? How could she have started a fight with her, knowing she would always strike back and win? Besides, she was Sergio’s mother and was as ruthless as her son.
“Looks like he will do more than collaring you like a dog”
“Fine, what do you want?” She asked at once and spun around. “What do you want me to do?”
Munika smiled. “I already told you, Vicenta. Get. Out. Of. Here”
“But…” She lowered her hands to her stomach. “What about him? I finally did what you asked and you now want to toss me away”
A knot tightened in Munika’s chest as she looked down at her stomach. It was still flat but she knew it wouldn’t matter in a couple of months if she was telling the truth. Even with that, she was never going to believe her mere words until everything was validated.
“I know you, Vicenta, and I know all about what you are trying to do. This is just part of your schemes”
“It is not…”
“I know you want him to keep f*cking you like a wh? re. I know you want to remain his mistress. I know you love him” Munika released the bombshell and waited for her reaction. When she got what she needed, she smirked and continued.
“You do love him, do you not?” She asked and took a step closer. “I knew it! You worthless wh? re”
“He will never love you and he will never treat you differently. You are a wh? re and that is all you will ever be until you meet your dreary end. You are a liar, I know you are not pregnant. You can never be because your womb was damaged a long time ago. Remember the portion you took that made you bleed for weeks…”
Tears welled up in Vicenta’s eyes as she remembered everything. That was one of the memories she had battled with until she managed to push behind her. It was painful and almost killed her but she survived. And now, Munika brought it back!
“Why… Why do you hate me so much?” Vicenta asked as tears rolled down her cheeks. “I tried to be good and did everything you asked”
“I do not hate you, Vicenta, you are not worth my hate” She stepped closer and smirked evilly. “But you know what I hate? I hate how high and mighty you think of yourself when you know this is all you will ever be”
Vicenta couldn’t hold back her tears any longer. She turned at once and rushed into the bathroom without looking back. Munika smirked and looked at the direction she had rushed off to. That was just payback for what she had said about her being collared like a dog.
She waited to hear her cry harder but instead, she heard her throwing up. She quickly rushed over and opened the bathroom only to find her emptying her bowels into the basin.
“Vicenta, are you alright?” The question flew out of her mouth before she could even think of it.
“Yes, I…” She threw up again.
Munika stood back and stared at her. Was she telling the truth about being pregnant for her son?
Rosana was dressed and was ready to leave for work. As she descended the stairs, she kept trying Sergio’s number and received the same feedback she had gotten in the past month.
Taking a deep breath, she continued down the stairs and tried to push him out of her mind like she had been doing for the past weeks. But no matter how hard she tried, she always found her mind racing back to him.
For a month and one week, he had not called or messaged. Most of all, he had not returned. Rosana was always caught up in the middle, feeling both angry and worried at the same time. Angry that he didn’t even care to reach out to her and worried that something must’ve gone wrong somehow.
She missed him. Most times she tried to convince herself that it was nothing. That she was happy that he was finally gone. But with each passing day, she realized they were all lies and untrue. She missed him and couldn’t wait for him to return.
Being lost in thoughts, she bumped into someone and her phone fell on the floor. She hurriedly bent down and picked it up. “So sorry about that…”NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
“You do not need to be sorry. Blindness is simply a disease”
Rosana looked up at once and caught Vicenta sneering down at her with arms crossed over her chest. They had not crossed paths in a long time and rarely saw eye to eye.
“If so, then it applies on your side, don’t you think?”
“Are you saying I am blind?!?”
Rosana shrugged. “Your words, not mine! Now, if you will excuse me…”
“Oh, of course, run along”
Rosana paused and looked at her. She couldn’t understand why the Mistress was always trying to get on her nerves whenever they met. If she wasn’t blabbing about Sergio, she was blabbing about being his Mistress.
“I would advise you to choose your words carefully, Mistress. You do not want to know what I am capable of”
Vicenta laughed in response and folded her arms. “Are you trying to act like the Don? Well, sorry, you have failed miserably because I am not scared of you”
“Maybe you should. And you will” Rosana smirked and turned to the two guards standing outside the door. “Take her to the freezing room. Her mouth has been running a lot and needs to be frozen”
Vicenta’s eyes widened as the men nodded curtly and started marching towards them. She turned back to look at Rosana who stood innocently. “You are joking. This is a joke, right?”
“Does it look like one to you?”
The men grabbed her at once and started dragging her away. “No… No, let me go! I am the Mistress! Who do you think you are?”
Rosana smirked and stretched out her fingers, admiring the nails she had spent more than a hundred euros to make. Then the gold rings on her fingers, her bracelet, and her expensive Chanel handbag.
“I do not need to tell you who I am. You know that more than anyone else”
“What is going on here?” Munika asked, descending the stairs.
“She ordered these men to take me to the Freezing room!” Vicenta replied. She was happy that Munika showed up. Surely, she would never allow anyone to treat her badly under her condition. She had already accepted her as the woman carrying her grandchild.
“What?!? Let go of her this instant” Instead of responding, the men kept dragging her away. “I said let her go! How dare you?”
“Stop!” Rosana commanded and they halted at once. Both Vicenta and Munika turned to look at her in shock. “See? That was easy, was it not?”
“How dare you?” Munika asked between gritted teeth. “Are you trying to humiliate me?”
Rosana laughed and walked closer to her. “Oh, no, dear mother-in-law. I am only showing you that I have the power to do anything. With or without your son”
“You are nothing without him”
“I am stronger without him” She smirked and turned to the men. “Take her away!”
