“Sir,I really think you should head down to the conference hall.”Carlos suggested.“Shut up.”Lorenzo snapped as he continued to stare at Fabiola through the screen.What exactly was she up?********Fabiola continued her speech with teary eyes.“I wouldn’t want anyone to twist my words and think my husband doesn’t treat me well.He treats me the best way he can.Just that,it’s inevitable for couples not to have misunderstandings.And I’m at fault too,I shouldn’t have gotten drunk because we had a fight.If I hadn’t had gotten drunk,I’m sure I wouldn’t have been harassed.And fortunately,Lorenzo was worried about leaving me behind so he came back for me.”“Why is Mr Martini not here right now?”“Are you sure he really treats you well?”The reporters started to throw more questions at her.Carlos was getting more and more tensed for his boss’ name.“Should I go down there,sir?”He asked.Lorenzo’s eyes narrowed.Was this how she planned on doing this?If she hadn’t been so hellbent on talking
Just as she thought he was going to take her,he moved away from her and adjusted his clothes.She shakily sat up and pulled down her skirt.“You keep fighting me against this Lucien thing.It seems you no longer want to meet Mr Thiago.”Fabiola stared at him in dismay.“You promised to let me see him…”“And I did take you to that party…”“It wasn’t my fault that I didn’t get to meet up with him.I thought you were going to arrange for a next time or something.”“Why should I?”Her chest felt so tight.”I wonder what makes me think sometimes that you’re a good person.You’re clearly not.And I won’t put up with this anylonger.You have two weeks,Lorenzo.Two weeks to take me to him or consider our contract marriage over.”“Weren’t you going to leave me after you get to know about the bracelet?Did you have any interest of staying with me afterwards?”She sighed and stood up straight.“When I get the information I need.I will decide if being with you is still worth it.”They stood fuming at eac
“What else did I do?”Fabiola asked,curiously.Suddenly,a girl pushed opened the door and walked in.With how the girl’s eyes and cheeks looked,it seemed as if she had been crying.Fabiola stared at the lady’s face.She looked a bit familiar.The lady turned to face her.“Fabiola,I know we had a little confrontation a while ago.But you got back at me.And I thought that was enough for you.I didn’t expect you would take more revenge on me.Not only have I lost my job.I’m in the verge of losing my life.”The girl cried.Then Fabiola remembered where she had seen this lady.At the break room.She had splashed coffee on her.Was that enough to ruin her life?Tricia rubbed her temples.“Fabiola,Julie has never shown anyone that design.She only asked you to print a copy of it so it can only be you who leaked it.”Fabiola grew genuinely confused.“Fine.I also admit that Julie and I aren’t on good terms.But I had forgotten about it.I could barely recognize her just now.I have no idea what you’re
Linda got to Lorenzo’s floor.At that moment,Carlos walked out of his office.“I need to see the CEO.”She panicked.Carlos frowned.”Why?”“It’s Fabiola.She’s been accused of something but I’m sure she didn’t do it.”Carlos’ face turned sour.“I’ll let him know of this.You can go back now.”Lina nodded,hesitantly and walked off.Carlos knocked on Lorenzo’s door again.But he didn’t receive any order for him to come in.Because he had left the office just now,Lorenzo was in the middle of an international conference call.Knowing how much he dotes on his wife,he opened the door and walked in.Lorenzo glanced at his displeased at the distraction but he continued his call in French.But seeing how alarmed Carlos looked made him quickly the call and stare at Carlos,questioningly.“What is it?”“It’s Mrs Martini.She’s in trouble and it seems pretty serious.”He was expecting Lorenzo to dash out of here.But he simply sat back down on his swivel chair and clicked on his mouse.Carlos wondered

Fabiola stared at Max and then at Esme.He looked like a policeman so she would go with him.She was sure Esme had a hand in this and if it would thoroughly investigated,she was sure nothing would be found against her because she had no idea what this design was even about.She stretched her arms to Max.“You can put me in handcuffs.”Max didn’t hesitate to put handcuffs of Fabiola’s wrists.They felt cold and she tried to hide how badly uncomfortable she felt.And then,she was being ushered out of the the company.******************Fabiola soon found herself at a dark interrogation room.“Fabiola,we have a CCTV footage that has confirmed you made a deal with someone else regarding that design.Are you still going to deny this?”Max asked,seriously.Fabiola scoffed.How can a footage prove that she did something she wasn’t even aware of?“A footage,huh?”She asked,sarcastically.Max stared at her wondering why she wasn’t cowering in fear.He was even staring at her in a scary and threat
Fabiola recalled how casually Max and Esme had seemed earlier.She looked up at him,squarely.“Esme sent you to arrest me,didn’t she?”“Oh,I was thinking you were very dumb but I guess you’re finally catching on.”He titled up her chin,roughly.Fabiola tried to turn her face to the other side but he wouldn’t let her.“You have no reason to keep me here.You don’t even have enough evidence to detain me yet you won’t let me go because of Esme.Do you realize that you’re putting your job on the line?”Max laughed and then he turned off a camera on the wall.“You still haven’t caught on.Do you really don’t think I’m from the crimes Department?”Max asked and he removed the name tag from his chest.“Mehn,this cost me 20 dollars to make up.”Fabiola gulped.”You…that tag is fake?”“It is.”Fabiola’s eyes dilated.That means,everyone who came with him to the company were not police officers.How dare he make such an act that openly?Oh God.She was in a big danger.“Max,Why didn’t you think about
Carlos nodded and walked off.Lorenzo walked into the house with Fabiola in his arms.He gently placed her on the bed and at that moment,her eyes opened.She stared at him in disbelief.Was she seeing things now?Was she seeing that stupid Max as Lorenzo now?Lorenzo didn’t come for her.He didn’t.She weakly tried to crawl out of bed thinking she was with Max.“Fabiola..”Lorenzo called,reaching for her.“Let…me…let me go…Don’t hurt me…”She cried.Lorenzo got into the bed and pulled her into his arms.“It’s me…It’s me…Lorenzo…it’s me….”He said,desperately trying to make that sink into her head.She poked her head out and stared up at him as if wanting to confirm that it was really him.There were tears on her eyes and on her beautiful face.Lorenzo felt so guilty.He had to learn how to control these emotions.Sure they were something he wasn’t used to but he had to try.His pettiness had led to this.Because she had given him an ultimatum.He didn’t wish to part with her.But she kept
