Chapter 37: Chapter 37

Nobody is exempt from the trials of life, but everyone can always find something positive in everything even in the worst of times.

Why so? All I thought was that because he had been kind to me it would be okay. But it has become even more hostile since the they left Thailand. He rarely goes out early every night. To her knowledge he was always with Susette. Speaking of Susette, they are here back in the Philippines. They really follow them. When I try to talk and tell Antoine about Marcus he doesn't give me a chance to speak. He's always out of mood and busy.

"You've been there before, you're still not done?"

She turned to the man. Hes wearing casual and not his everyday suit. That would have been the thing and she would have been attracted to the man if it hadn't tortured her.

"Do you think it's fair you're doing this to me?"

The extent of the wall she was painting. She did not think that it had another room in his house. It's always so closed that she doesn't really notice. After cleaning it yesterday, she painted the wall. And take note, she only paint on one side. She hadn't even been able to move on to cleaning yesterday. And his another command again.

"To whom is this room I'm fixing for?"

"Why do you have so many questions?"

She suddenly lost his strength when she remembered that he was always with Susette. Maybe it's for the woman.

She never spoke again and weakly the paint caressed the front wall.

"Why is your lips reaching the wall?"

She ignored him even though she wanted to stab him madly. Joke!

What does this man think of her? Mistress?

Second choice?

Things that can be replaced?

But how did she become one of those? It did not show any interest in her. She always asked in her mind if her memory would ever come back. That's crazy doctor! He said that Antoine's memory would return immediately. Why does the man still don't remember her?

"Sh*t!"

She was shocked by the sharp dripping paint she was using. She quickly fixed that. She noticed that the man was still there in his earlier position. Antoine didn't seem to like what happened because its face was frowning.

She averted her eyes because she was shivering. It was nice to paint his handsome face if it means to erased from her mind.

"I will just eat."

' Because if I don't control myself, I might eat you.'

She scratch her cheek thinking that the ideas in her mind did not match.

"You have paint on your cheeks, Consuela." Antoine said while looking at her cheeks.

"It's just paint, Antoine. It can't kill me."

'I would be more deadly if you lost.'

'Oh, brain. you’re distorted!'

She was surprised as Antoine removed the paint on her cheek. She looked at the handsome face of the man. Why isn't it even reduced by his handsomeness?

"Your saliva. It's dripping."

She averted her eyes from him when the man said that. She was also feeling, he was right.

"Why are you so handsome?"

Even though she realized what came out of her mouth, she also stood by it. Her face became serious and she stared at him. She didn't take his eyes off Antoine.

How long can he forget about their past? Or, can he still remember her?

"Rest first, Consuela."

He said and turned away from that room.

Weak!

A kiss will do 'there to relieve my resentment.

♥♥♥

She approached the man holding the goblet as he sipped its contents. She gently ran his finger over its chest. How long will he wait for this one to give up?

She has long relied on the promises of the man. She do everything he wants. Even she could be involved with the person she didn't like. Even though she looks like a fool chasing him. She loved him so much.

"Marcus, we've been together for a long time. When do you plan to be my official boyfriend."

"I haven't seen any progress in what we're doing Susette. When your mission with Dela Merced is over you might get what you want."

When was that thing happen?

"But Marcus, don't you see that I can make Antoine believe that we are not a villain here. We can freely do our plan."

He just looked at her. She bit her lips to seduce the man. Even when it's really so stubborn and was hardened by the excessive revenge of her dead girlfriend. She loves Marcus.

"Marcus?"

When he didn't move, she approached the man to bring their lips together. At first, Marcus did not respond but eventually she felt that the man answers her kissed. She could taste the wine on his lips. How long has it been drinking?

"Hmmnn .."

She wanted to deepen the kiss they shared even more when she heard Marcus' little growl.

She set aside the goblet he was holding and climbed on the man's thighs. She was still deepening the kiss that the two of them shared. Only now has Marcus been like this. She was also happy because respond to her kisses. All she could think was that in a dream that thing would happen.

"Oh, Marcus!" She exclaimed when he carries her back down to her behind. Marcus even squish her right breast.

"You will be mine too, Fatima ..."

She was stunned when she heard that. While Marcus just keep what on doing. It didn't seem to feel her shiver of anger. She used to fight his dead girlfriend, but now she has a new rival. She was envy Arrienne and now why is someone else entering the relationship she was working on the two of them?

She stood up and left his lap. She looked at him angrily and seemed to fell in tears. She felt his heart being crushed even worse than the crushed pepper.

She angrily left Marcus. Among the many rivals she will have, why is Antoine's woman? She was already at the gate of his house, when she saw his brother Ryko. She noticed his grin when he saw her crying.

He was another obstacle in her life. This man must have been angry with her even though she knew she had done nothing wrong to him.

"It hurts?"

This question seemed to annoy her even more. Even if she wanted to hit him, she couldn't do it because it was even scarier to get angry than Marcus.

She looked at Ryko first before finally leaving the gate.

♥♥♥

"Mr. Dela Merced or can I call you Antoine?" She approached him and simply glanced at the man. Actually he's hard to persuade. Contrary to what she said to Marcus. The man is too serious. He rarely speaks. She wonders what magic Consuela used here to make the leader of the racketeer group fall in love.

"It's too formal to call you Mr. Dela Merced, right?"

"You take care of what you want to call me Ms. Susette."

"And to be fair just call me Susette too."

She flirted using her voice to attract the man. She noticed his gaze lift from the papers he was reading towards her. She was horrified when he grinned but she didn't show it to the man . Ever since she met Marcus, she has become accustomed to the world he inhabits. Cunning, ambitious, and evil people often accompany them. But the grin of a Dela Merced seems to have something strange there.

"Miss. Susette. Tell me what brought you here?"

"Ahm..I wish I could have dinner with you later."

"Dinner. If that's what you called it, why not?"

She nodded. When she invites him, as always. He doesn't say anything and just agrees with her. It was scary but it rarely refused her invitations.

"So, I'll pick you up at six?"

"No, I'll pick you up. I'm the man so I'll pick you up."

She suddenly blushed at what he said. Even though this one is a bit scary, he has respect for a woman.

She looked at the man before she left.

"Do you still want to say something Susette?"

Gosh!

She felt a great blush to hear him call her name. She left his office, so that the man can't notice her face.

Yes, she can enter as well in his office. Isn't it that no one knows who she is. And she and Marcus use its situation against Antoine. No matter how good his looks is, she shouldn't forget what Marcus 'plans.

Their plan is to find out the whereabouts of Antoine's group and sabotage it so that no one will trust it anymore. They will knock down the racketeers along with Antoine. Kill Consuela just like Arriene disappeared. Antoine's downfall is the only thing that can make Marcus happy. The suffering he experienced when Arrienne disappeared was immense. As well as how he became a mafia if it could only match Antoine.

At six o'clock Antoine picked her up. The man took her to a restaurant. If I didn't know that the man was only doing it because of the money she was set to invest in its business, maybe Antoine would have gone with her. What happen in Thailand is even in their plans. Even the meeting of Ryko and Consuela. It was all Marcus's plan. They will be jealous of each other so that Antoine loses focus on the group. And when they no longer need the woman they will kill her. So they took his trust and pretended to be an investor in its company. Evwn that are also part of the plan. Also, she is so rich that it is quick for her to throw money away.

"Antoine, your assistant. I noticed she likes you."

"I think she's not important to talk. Anyway, what do you want to eat?"

She raised an eyebrow at what he heard. It seems that Antoine was sensitive when talking about the woman. Consuela is obviously important to him. Looks like she's going to have a happy night today.

"Yeah. I'm sorry, it's not good to talk about useless things. I mean, person."

She noticed the change in his expression so she smiled even more. She will not allow nothing to happen tonight. Obviously, he likes his assistant. Amnesia doesn't seem to stop him from forgetting his feelings for Consuela.

She had to carry out the plan even though her chest was pounding at the thought that she would approach near to Dela Merced.

She has a plan tonight. She will only add to the drama between the woman and Antoine. Marcus will definitely enjoy that.

They also stayed inside the restaurant for a few hours. They were already inside his car when he was already squeezing the sinuses. The medicine she put in Antoine's drink seems to be working.

"Are you okay Antoine? Do you want me to drive?"

"I don't know but suddenly my head hurt."

"I should have drive you ... Crazy ..."

She continued as the man closed his eyes. The dosage of the drug she put on was high. And it will surely forget tomorrow the detail of what happened tonight. She will just play.

She was the one who drove the car. She checked into a hotel and asked the man to be put into a room.

When they entered a room, she immediately took his cellphone and searched for her target. Soon the ring tone of the other line rang out.

"Hello, Antoine?"

She grinned.

"Oh, Antoine ... faster! Ohhh ..... you're great Antoine .."

"H-hello? Antoine," said the woman on the other line. She became even more enamored with the awkward tone of his speech.

"One more please, Antoine ..."

She flirted her voice even more to be more convincing.

"S-Susette?"

She turned off the call and immediately took a picture of the sound asleep man. She sent it to Consuela.

"Good luck tomorrow, Mr. Dela Merced."

She spoke to the sleepy man. She deleted the photo taken and left the man in that room. She instructed the hotel staff that when he woke up they would say he was the only one checking in there.

She smiled because that was just the beginning. Marcus still has a lot of plans.

♥♥♥

Hello, Antoine!

Your babe will feel too jealous again.

Can I kill Susette so that Consuela and you won't be hindered?

You, do you want me to kill Sussette?
