Chapter 1171: Don’t think about it (2)
One month later.
A grand wedding ceremony takes place at the Intercontinental Hotel La Ciudad Santa.
A welcome photo of the bride and groom is placed in the lobby at the welcome desk.
With the wedding in full swing, the wedding officiant held the microphone on stage and said, “Let’s take a look at the bride and groom’s moments of love!”
On stage, a dirty video of car crashes suddenly played on the huge ultra HD screen.
The female protagonist of the video is none other than the bride herself.
However, the male protagonist of the video is not the groom himself.
The guests on stage, a sensation.
On stage, the groom’s face was green with anger as he snapped at Kemena’s arm and whispered in her ear, “Kemena, what are you doing! You’re trying to embarrass me, aren’t you?”.
The bride, who was wearing delicate makeup, instantly turned pale, “What the hell is going on here? Someone must be trying to set me up.”
Kemena peered frightened through the crowd and, with a single glance, saw the face of the man who remained indifferent and calm a short distance away.
Micaela!
I can’t believe she’s not dead!
For a moment, Kemena’s face was bloodless with fear, and she took two unsteady steps back on her heels as she glared at Micaela through the crowd.
How can … Micaela died two years ago! Nico even bought her a grave!
But how can Micaela …
The groom pulled Kemena’s hand away, tore the groom’s brooch from the lapel of his suit and smashed it in Kemena’s face: “Bitch! Go and marry yourself! You have disgraced me.”
“Gallardo Verdugo! Listen to me! Someone must have set me up! This video is a planted accusation!”
Kemena took a step forward to push Gallardo away, only to be shoved roughly by Gallardo, who fell to the ground on unsteady heels.
Gallardo spat at her, “You whore! I only agreed to marry you because you were a pretty girl and a nice guy, but I never thought you’d do something like this! I’m telling you, we’ll settle this later! The wedding is off!”
Kemena knelt down and reached up to grab Gallardo’s pant leg, but he kicked her away.
The groom walks away from the wedding venue full of anger.
And the guests watching the play from the stage were in an uproar.
“This bride looks innocent enough, but I never thought she would have this face backstage!”
“What a surprise to see such a slut! What a disgrace to the old Verdugo family!”
“Such a woman is dirtier than a sewer! Tsk!”
Kemena fell on the stage and was subjected to insults.
Her eyes were red-rimmed and her hands gripped the hem of her wedding dress as she gritted her teeth in a frenzy, “Micaela … she must be behind this!”.
Micaela has come back for revenge!
Micaela won’t let her go, she can’t sit back and wait!
…
After Kemena and Gallardo’s wedding was ruined, Kemena was left completely without a source of capital.
After the bankruptcy of The Matamoros family, the family was even more destitute.
The entrance to the Matamoros family mansion is visited daily by debtors and workers collecting debts.
After Beltran’s stroke, he can only lean back in his recliner and drool each day, and the entire burden has been shifted to Kemena’s shoulders.
Kemena slammed Beltran’s medicine bottles and jars on the floor and said, “I’m so upset! These people are as hungry as the dead! It’s all thanks to your daughter Micaela! Why do I have to be the one to take care of them now? Why must all the responsibility fall on me? Now that my marriage has been ruined by Micaela, why should she be the one to take it easy!”
Beltran stammered and growled at Kemena’s grimace, but his tongue knotted and he couldn’t say anything.
Kemena looked at Beltran and said viciously, “Micaela’s your daughter too, why won’t she support you!”
The phone thought noisily.
The caller ID showed a black number with unknown destination.
Kemena saw the number and was annoyed, but didn’t dare answer.
“Hey, what the hell do you want?”
The other party said lazily and mischievously, “Miss Matamoros, how come the hundred thousand you promised me last week hasn’t been credited yet? Are you blackmailing me?”
Kemena gritted her teeth and said angrily, “I paid you for all your work long ago! You’ve blackmailed me over and over again, and I haven’t even called the police to arrest you! How dare you blackmail me again?”
“Miss Matamoros, we’re in the same boat, if Miss Matamoros doesn’t want the money, I’ll ask Nico, the president of the Amengual Group. ”
Kemena’s heart skipped a beat and she panicked, but she said calmly, “Don’t give me that! If Nico finds out you’ve kidnapped his wife, he won’t give you money, he’ll shoot you! Do you think I’m stupid? Do you really dare go to Nico and tell him off?”
“I wouldn’t dare, but I tell you I have a gambling debt, and if you don’t pay me, sooner or later the usurers will chase me without being able to live, and a man without being able to live will go mad, and then I don’t know what crazy things I’ll do with my heart! Today, if I don’t see the money, I’ll go to the Amengual Group to look for Nico!”
Kemena clenched his fists and said angrily, “The money call will be recorded! Same old thing, same old place, I’ll meet the cash! But I’m warning you, it’s the last time.”
The man on the other end of the phone, hearing this, smiled good-naturedly, “That’s right, Miss Matamoros, let’s talk, don’t make me angry, it’s not going to be easy for everyone.”
Kemena hung up at once.
There was a glint of mischief in her eyes.
You want money, no way!
For the past two years, she had been extorted by this kidnapper, and she had long since grown tired of being hassled!
Tonight she’ll be rid of this pest!
Lest Nico and Micaela find out, what was done then would have been done clean, no surveillance, no traces, if this scum really goes crazy and reveals what happened then, the consequences would be unthinkable …
Kemena picked the shiny fruit knife to the side, the sharpness glinting in her eyes.
…
Amengual Group building, President’s office.
Campoverde made his way in and reported, “Mr. Nico, Kemena’s marriage to Gallardo has been shaken up, presumably by the Mr. a.”
Nico said, “If Kemena knows that Micaela is responsible for her marriage, she can hold a grudge.
“Good. I’ll send someone to do it right now.”
Nico drove back to Villa Moon Lake Road after the meeting.
The weather is warming up in the Holy City and the bitter winter is about to end.
The acacia tree in the yard is filling out with leaves, growing new branches and sprouting new shoots.
Two years ago, he shot this acacia and it left a scar, but this acacia is also growing tirelessly.
The acacia can heal itself, but its relationship with Micaela, however, cannot be revised.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Nico stood under the tree, stunned for a moment.
Soon after, Savanna came running out of the villa: “Brother! Brother! Brother! Brother! I’ve found him! I’ve found him!”
Savanna collides with Nico with a thrill.
Nico frowned and asked, “What are you doing here?”.
“I’ll help you find the ring!”
