Chapter 40: Chapter 40

It's a long day of thinking about an update but at the end nothing happens.

I hope I can make it this time.

MARCUS

"I'm not happy with what I know about Susette. Why does Antoine seem to be getting closer to Fatima? Shouldn't that man be jealous?"

Marcus said angrily. He noticed that there's wrong in their plan. This Antoine looks really tough. He would have a hard time knocking him down.

"I-I don't know, Marcus. I can't hold the hearts of those two. Why don't you just kill Consuela to hurt Antoine more?"

Marcus was stunned and looked at the woman. An idea was now playing in his mind. Of course, why didn't he just kill Antoine. He will use the woman again to get him. And this time, he will make sure he can kill Antoine.

"One more, Marcus. It's better the two of them get too close before you kill the woman. Antoine will be hurt more."

His face lit up realizing what Susette said was right. Sometimes Susette has a brain too.

"You're right Susette. Why should I bother to hurt Antoine's feelings when I can take someone important to him."

"See? If that's what you do Antoine will fall into grief faster. Don't you also want him to feel the pain of losing his love?"

He nodded. Sussette approached him and caressed his cheek. He looked into the eyes of the woman full of adoration for him. Why didn't he reciprocate her love?

Because he is not yet free. He will not be satisfied until Antoine is alive. Until he experiences the loss of the woman he loves. He will kill Consuela, then Antoine.

"I'll help you, Marcus. I'm always here for you. End your revenge. Let's get together and build a family. After your revenge on Antoine. Let's get away, Marcus. I love you."

Susette told him that with all her heart. But she was right, why didn't he try to give the woman a chance. It has also been with him for a long time and expects her to reciprocate how he feels.

The decision formed in his mind. He will take Consuela and he will use it again against Antoine. This is a good opportunity because Antoine doesn't remember anything about him yet. He needs to execute his plan as soon as possible.

He will make Antoine feel the pain of losing a loved one. The pain of losing a girlfriend.

♥♥♥

She sat in front of the steering wheel while Pietro was next to her. She wants to learn to drive. Then he will teach her how to drive a racing car. She would do everything for Antoine.

"Are you sure you want to learn this Consuela?"

"I want to, Pietro. I want to know the things that will make Antoine happy."

"I know what's the thing that makes Antoine happy?"

She looked at the man with her eyebrows meeting. It looks like it's nonsense to talk to him again. On the day they were together with this man nothing serious came out of its mouth.

"Seduce him."

She slapped him hard on the shoulder and was about to punch him when he pointed his fist.

"Do that woman and when you do that, I won't go with you to learn to race."

She clenched his fist.

"You think it's so easy to learn? Hey, it took us years to learn it and then you can just ask for a favor. There is a fee for it. You can't even drive."

"Will you teach me or will you preach there?"

The man was still shaking his head although he had nothing to say to her.

He taught her to drive for almost an hour. Proper concentration and listening was what she used to get. She was eager to learn so that she could keep up with the matter of Antoine.

"You learned to drive easily. But that's not something you have to learn yet. In racing, concentration and determination are all you need."

"Okay, so far I'm happy and I've learned some things. Next time I'll be able to handle a racing car and it's not your rotten car."

"Why are you really insulting?"

He pinched her nose and told her they were going to switch seats.

When they both sat down, it started the car. It's a long day of teaching her how to drive a car. Even though they fight, it is always Pietro who is with her. When she needed help it was always by her side as well.

"Your friend is so narrow-minded. As if he doesn't like me, eh."

Pietro laughed at what she said. This is what she likes about Pietro, she's not joking but he's laughing. They were laughing when she noticed that the man was serious and looked straight into the side mirror of the car. She was nervous there. It is the same what happened with Antoine when the goons ambushed them before.

"Pietro, is there a problem? Is someone following us?"

"Tsk. When I tell you to hide down. Hide, Consuela. Someone is following us."

It took the gun that was in the compartment. It screwed that up.

"Maybe it's Lestor again, Pietro."

"I know the vehicle Lestor uses, Consuela."

She was nervous when She saw that the car was also speeding when Pietro was driving fast.

Somewhere Pietro turned around to intercept those following them but that vehicle still followed. Eventually she heard a series of shots when Pietro said she bowed so she did the same thing.

"Sh*t! Consuela, hold the steering wheel for a moment and I'll shoot them. Speed!"

"F*ck you Pietro! I-I'm not good at driving yet."

She said even though she was confused. She came near the steering wheel.

"Do you want those to attack us? We're going to die, Consuela. You might never see Antoine again."

She removed the seat belt and grabbed the steering wheel. Pietro looked out the window to fire. She was confused but she thought she might not be able to see Antoine if she didn't do that.

They exchanged gunfire when she heard Pietro.

"Bulls eye! You want to fight this sharp shooter!"

The man said stiffly as the vehicle of their opponents swayed.

Stunned, she caught his attention when they collided head -on with the truck they were about to encounter. Pietro quickly turned to the steering wheel and turned it immediately. She couldn't balance herself and she slammed into the glass of the other door. She did not remember anything after the incident because she lost consciousness when she saw blood running down her cheek. She felt so scared before she fainted.

She only woke up to hear a noise around. Why does it seem like there is a party around?

"The enemy is already working. We need to be doubly careful even if their target is Uno. They can use Fatima to get Antoine."

"Marcus isn't dead yet. And Fatima saw it recently at the event they went to in Thailand," Nate was the one she heard speak.

"H-hello," she said still faintly to them. Her wound was also quite painful. She remembered that she had hit the windshield of Pietro's car.

"How are you Fatima?" Nate asked him.

"I'm okay except my head hurts."

She touched the part of her head that was now bandaged. She turned around and looked for Antoine. The man didn't seem to be there.

"Where's Antoine?"

"Antoine is just coming, Consuela."

He nodded. I guess he was busy and it didn't get there right away.

"H-how was Antoine? I know Marcus was behind the chase with us earlier."

"You're right, Consuela. Antoine needs to know everything. Tell him so we can be ready. Especially Antoine," Pietro told her seriously.

"What do I need to know, Pietro?"

They all looked at the door where the man who had just arrived was standing. Its serious face asks them. Particularly with Pietro.

"What do I need to know?"

It repeated the question without them all speaking. There were only three of them but no one answered them. He noticed that Nate and Pietro were looking at each other and later said goodbye.

"Fatima, it's up to you to tell Antoine. Of the three of us, you're the one who deserves to tell him."

The two left and only Antoine and she were left. She didn't know how she was going to start saying all things to him.

"You alright?"

Her question quickened her heartbeat. She shyly said 'yes'. The man approached her and looked straight into her eyes

"Then, can you tell me what Nate and Pietro are referring to?"

"Ahmm..o-okay."

It patiently waited for what she would say next. He seemed really interested in knowing what the two wanted to convey. She also wants to say here the things he has forgotten. About her and about Marcus' evil plan.

"Antoine, will you believe me if I tell you that I'm your girlfriend?"

He heaved a sigh.

"You already said it, Consuela. My question is, how did we become?"

She frowned. It seems that what he said has a double meaning and he seems to be insulting her.

"Why don't you want to be us, Antoine?"

She was disgusted at the tone of its questioning.

"I'm just kidding, I've always thought you were the one in my dream, Consuela."

"Dream?"

"Yes, a woman calls me by the ugly endearment."

She winced. She seemed to want to stop talking to him. What the hell is this guy?

"My baby?"

She was specific to make sure that was exactly what it was referring to. When Antoine nodded and confirmed that what she called it was what it meant, she wanted to be ashamed.

"But even that ugly seems to be nice to hear."

She looked at him, feeling the redness of her whole face. Couldn't he just be forced to say that?

"D-don't be silly Antoine. I know that's really ugly."

It's as if she's contributing what he said.

"Besides that, do you want to say anything else?"

He asked, ignoring her sullenness.

"Marcus and Susette. They're your opponents."

He was silent for a moment and then spoke again afterwards.

"I know."

She was surprised at what Antoine said. He already knows that Marcus is their opponent? But why would she still be close to the man?

"You know that, Antoine?"

"Yes. I'm a mafia Consuela. I know who my opponent is and who isn't."

She was silent and just looked at him. What else can she say here?

"I want to know how I lost my memory."

She sighed before she began to recount everything that had happened before. She only stopped when the man's head hurt.

"Why, Antoine?"

She was alarmed that she attended to the man.

"I-I'm okay Consuela. I'm okay ..."

She found him calming himself. In her pity, she hugged the man. She repeatedly kissed her on the forehead.

"Antoine, don't try to remember everything first. The important thing is, you're okay and we're together."

She hugged him again after she said those things.

"Are you really my girlfriend?"

She let go of his embrace when she heard the man's question. Can't he believe she became his girlfriend? That she was the only one who became his girlfriend?

She moved away from the man and went back to where she had been lying on the bed earlier and disgustedly turned her back on him.

Was she wrong to be his girlfriend? Does the man regret that she became his girlfriend?

"C-Consuela? A-are you angry?"

She ignored him. That was very bad for her but the man was bad too.

"Consuela, answer me. Are you mad at me?"

This one is really numb. He even really got to ask?

"Consuela, babe?"

F*cking d*mn!

That's it, her annoyance was slowly dissolving. Antoine called her 'babe' again.

Sh*t that's sulk, oh!

She restrained herself from looking back at him even though it was hard for him to control her sulky feeling.

"Consuela?"

Its tone seems to be disgusted and no longer controlled. Is this really how the mafia is?

"If you don't face me Consuela, I'll rape you in your bed."

Does it know nothing to do but scare her?

She frowned to face him. The look she gave the man was also bad.

"What?"

She asked rudely here.

The man scratched his head.

"A-are you mad?"

"Doesn't it look like that?"

"I was just asking, ah?"

"Well, I don't like your question."

"S-sorry, Consuela babe."

She laughed when he heard that from Antoine again. When she really couldn't take it anymore, she would kiss him.

Oh, it looks ugly if he does it.

"I'm sorry, Consuela."

Repeating it more. She couldn't hold back anymore and hugged the man.

"I miss you, baby."

She could no longer control herself and cried as she hugged him.
