Asides this, all the money he had stolen were returned back to the country. As Rita thought about it, she knew that Gabriel would be behind bars for many years because the gravity of the offence he committed was great.
The only reason she was sympathetic about his case was because of his wife and his two year old daughter. Apparently, his wife didn't know about her husband's fraudulent activities."Senator Brabra is hosting a dinner for some of his close friends tomorrow evening. As usual, we've been invited. I see it as a way to tighten your bond with his son, Edmundo since you both would be getting married soon", Lawrence said.They were in the dining room one evening when he announced this. Rita thought they had forgotten all about her supposed marriage with Edmundo but as it stands, they haven't. In fact, tRelated chapters
His Identity Chaos was waiting
The following day, being the last day of the working week, Rita walked into the office building. She had a renewed strength, vowing that nothing would spoil her day. She wanted to finish up with her workload so she could leave early and prepare for Theresa's arrival."I... Don't worry about picking me up this evening, I'm going somewhere from here", she said.She was in her office with Rodrigo. The chaffeur had a confused expression on his face as he tried to determine what she was saying."It's okay Rita, I could drive you wherever you want", he said.He moved closer to her, giving her hands a gentle squeeze. Rita didn't want him knowing where she was going. She wanted an alone time with her friend, away from her parents and even Rodrigo. Not that she had stopped loving him, far from it. She just wanted to be alone for some time."I promise, don't worry about it. If there's anything amiss, I'll give you a call", she said, kissing him full on the lips.

Rita was enjoying herself immensely as she danced to the tune of the music playing from the speakers. She fended off a lot of men who wanted to take advantage of her, politely telling them that she wasn't going to dance with them. Oddly, most of the men left Theresa alone and she had a feeling that they knew who she was."Let's go sit down for a bit, my legs are killing me", Theresa huffed.Rita laughed as they made their way to a private booth. They ordered several shots of drink as Rita dowbed them all in quick succession."Easy girl", Theresa chuckled."I just want to be free for the night. Can you blame me", she laughed."No. Did you see the faces of the men you fended off. I bet they've never been turned down like that before", Theresa laughed."Honestly. I didn't come here to get laid, I came here because I wanted to forget everything that's been going on in my life at least just for this night", she said."We should do this once in a while.

The following day, Rita moved into Edmundo's house. Her parents promised her that it was for the time being but she knew that they just said this to soften the hurt she felt within her.Rita made her way outside where Edmundo's car was parked, already waiting for her. She climbed in, schooling her face. She knew her mother was trying to get her attention but she refused to give her audience."Smile Rita, you're not going to the prison yard", Edmundo chuckled.Between the prison and Edmundo's house, she preferred the prison. At least there, she would be somewhat free from him but in his house, not so much."I can't help but compare the prison to your house. I can't believe you really convinced my parents to do this. This is the height of it Edmundo and i won't forget this. Sooner or later, you'll pay for how you treat me", Rita said.She fought to keep her tears in. She didn't want to give him the satisfaction of seeing her cry. No doubt, he'll gloat at the w

It's been a few days since Rita had begun living with the Brabra's. A few days of grief, a few days of pain and sadness. To make matters worse for her, she couldn't get ahold of Rodrigo. His line wasn't going through and even when she asked around in the office, nobody seemed to have seen him. Rita was confused on what to do. It wasn't like Rodrigo not to take his calls especially if he knew she was the one calling.Rita tried all she could to get him but each time she tried, she was met with no response. She was currently in her office, going over some files when Yasmin announced that a lady was here to see her. Rita wasn't expecting any visitors and so, she was quite surprised by this. Recently, she had been wary of visitors for fear of them attacking her since she seemed to be their best bet."How does she look and please, whisper", Rita said."Not quite old, she has some greying hair at the side", Yasmin whispered.Rita didn't know her and she was just about

Rita drove towards the address Camille gave her and ended up in a quaint neighborhood. The houses were modern size and Rita felt more at home here than in her rich neighborhood. She still hadn't found Rodrigo and every minute without knowing where he was made her heart jolt.She soon got to the house where Camille lived and smiled at how perfect it looked. The house was painted a cool blue. The steps leading to the house was filled with purple hibiscus, giving it a grand look. Rita parked her car, the latest Mercedes Benz beside the house as she walked towards the house.Rita felt so many stares on her and she could tell that the people of this neighborhood didn't get so many visitors. She stepped on the front porch, ringing the doorbell. Soon, she heard footsteps come closer and soon, Camille appeared at the door, holding a mug of coffee."Welcome Rita, good morning", she greeted.Rita smiled as she hugged the woman. Camille ushered her into the living room, off

The following day was a workday. Rita made her way to the office building, her heart still shattered over Rodrigo's disappearance. Try as she may, all get efforts at finding him proved abortive. It seemed as if he had suddenly gone off the surface of the earth as every avenue she employed turned out to be negative."Good morning ma'am", Yasmin smiled.Rita nodded, half-heartedly. She wasn't in the mood to take greetings knowing what she was currently facing. She was bleak, hollow and in need of a miracle from the way her life seemed to spiral downhill.She got to her office soon, clearing all the files on the table as she rested her head on the table. Tears of pain slid down her eyes as thoughts of Rodrigo filled her mind. He should have been here to comfort her but he was gone just like the wind.

Rita woke up with a start the next morning. She had dreamt that Rodrigo was back but just as she wanted to touch him, he disappeared from her reach. She groaned as the alarm gave a shrill sound. She switched it off as she made her way to the bathroom to do her business. When she was done, she made her way to the balcony, leaning against the railings as she allowed the cool morning air to hit her face.The day was the early, as she watched the moon shine down on the earth with all it's beauty. She remembered the incident with Rodrigo as they threw coins into the fountain with the moon's light guiding them. That was the day they shared their first kiss, the day Rita knew she was in love with him. That day felt like a lifetime, considering everything that happened ever since. She wished she could turn back the hands of time and instructed Rodrigo not to leave on the last day she saw him. Maybe he would have been here, maybe none of this would have happened.As Rita's mind was

They made their way to the front door, Rita pressed the doorbell, waiting for a response.The door opened soon to reveal the beautiful face of Camille.

His Identity Edmundo is a bastard
In all of her life, Rita had never felt so tensed up as she felt now. The room was dead silent as the only noise that could be heard were the chirping of the birds outside.By now, Magdalene's face was no where near how it used to be. Senator Brabra on the other hand had an uncomfortable look as he looked everywhere else but Rodrigo.Rita couldn't believe that ever since, she had been in love with the legitimate son of the Senator. It was hard to believe but staring at them now, Rita could see the striking resemblance between the both of them."How, Wilson what is this nonsense he's saying?", Lawrence said, pacing.Rita had completely forgotten that her father was still around as her whole mind was centered on Rodrigo. For the first time ever, her mother was lost for words as she stared at the drama unfolding before her."Would you like to explain or I should do the honours?", Rodrigo smirked.Senator Brabra remained silent, staring like he had lost his

In all of her years of driving, Rita had never drove as recklessly as she did now. When Rita heard the news, she flew out of her office. Even the security men had a hard time tailing her with the way she drove like a banshee.All of Rita's mind was focused on getting to Senator Brabra's house on time. Rodrigo was back, she could hardly believe it. Not until she sees him, she wouldn't believe it. Rita suddenly slammed on the brakes of her car when she nearly ran over an old lady who was crossing the road."You need to have your eyes checked", the woman hissed before hobbling away.Rita sighed, apologizing to the woman who flipped the bird. Rita drove away, a bit more cautious than before.She got to Senator Brabra's house soon, parking her car haphazardly at the entryway. Rita ran all the way in, halting in her tracks when she saw a group of people in the living room. Senator Brabra and his wife Magdalene were seated and Rita could tell that there was a frigid atm
His Identity Rodrigo is back
The next day, Rita resumed fully at the office. She could see that a lot of changes had been made especially with the security system. Yasmin, her loyal secretary was now at the top floor, a few doors down from Rita's office. The other staffs of the organization each had a string of security men, stationed at strategic corners of the building.Rita's office was like a vault. The security system was improved and now, anyone who wanted to see her had to pass through both physical and mechanical screening. A device that read her fingerprints was designed and installed on her office door and she alone could access the office."Glad to have you back ma'am", Yasmin smiled.She had come upstairs to welcome her boss when she was sure she had settled down. She beamed as she took in Rita's appearance. She was glad to see that she was okay without any strain in her eyes."Yasmin, how have you been?", Rita smiled."Alright ma'am, thank you", she said."That's good
His Identity Rodrigo was nearby
Rita left the Brabra's house with tears in her eyes. After Edmundo's conversation, she dashed downstairs, needing to be very far away from him. Now, she had a lot of evidence against him and she couldn't wait to put it in good use.First, she was going to break off her relationship with him before taking any other action against him. Now that she knew Rodrigo was alive, she was a bit confident to carry out her plans.She got downstairs, practically running towards the SUV. Ramirez could tell that something was definitely wrong with her especially with the agitated look on her face."Home, fast", Rita ordered.She wanted to catch her parents at home before they went for the charity dinner taking place downtown. Ramirez drove with all of his dexterity, sensing that whatever was going on was much ore serious than he thought.They soon got home under ten minutes as Rita climbed out of the car, running into the house. She met her parents in the living room
His Identity Heard a secret
When she got to the Senator's house, everywhere was quiet, too quiet for comfort. She smiled politely to Louis who opened the large double doors for her. When she still lived under their roof, she had made a lot of friends with the domestic staffs."Good morning ma'am, it's really lovely to see you", Louis said, bowing slightly."Hi Louis, it's nice to see you too", Rita smiled.She was genuinely happy to see him. Louis had been a sort of companion even when she was still here."Thank you ma'am. You came to see Master Edmundo no?", he said.His Spanish accent was really obvious especially when he talked for a long period of time. Sometimes, Rita could hardly keep up with somethings he said due to his fast tongue."Urghh.. not quite but are the Brabra's home?", Rita said."Yes but I'm afraid things aren't looking good ever since the report came out about Edmundo's alleged murder", he whispered.His eyes darted about, fearing that he
His Identity It's not true
A week had passed since the attack in Rita's office. She was grateful for being alive, grateful that despite everything she had faced, she could wake up each day and take in the morning air."Ramirez said it's okay to go back to the office now", Rita said over breakfast one morning."Are you sure? I don't want a repeat of that attack happening again", Lawrence said."I'm sure dad, it won't happen again. Besides, the man who did it is behind bars and wouldn't come out for a very long time", Rita said.Ever since she had gone to see Nicholas in his cell, she had been itching to tell her parents what he said. She didn't know what to expect if she told them. Murder was a serious offence and if her father was found guilty, he could spend the rest of his life in jail. She shuddered to think what would become of her and her mother plus, the company would no doubt be affected by this.Over the years, Rita has come to learn that no one wanted to be associated with mu

Rita knew she had to tell somebody about what she heard but she didn't quite know who to tell. The issue was a very sensitive one and there was no telling what would happen if the information fell into the wrong hands.As she thought about it, Camille's name popped in her mind. If there was one person she could trust, it was her. She was also sure of getting good advice from her on how best to handle the case.Rita picked up her phone, deciding to call the woman whom she could proudly call her friend."Hi Camille", Rita said, smiling into the phone."Oh, hello dear. How have you been?", she asked."I've been good. Please, I need to see you. Are you still in your friend's house", Rita said."Oh no, I got back to my house yesterday. Is anything the problem dear?",she asked."I'm afraid yes, I need to talk to you about something", Rita said."Oh my gosh! Is it Rodrigo?", she croaked."No... No, it's not Rodrigo", Rita said.She co

"I won't allow you to go see the bastard who almost gunned you down", her father seethed.Rita hadn't planned on informing him but she couldn't keep something like this from him. He deserved to know at least even though they really didn't see eye to eye on certain issues."I need to go Dad, i need to find out other things about this attack. I have a feeling that there's more to this. Please, I'll be okay. Remember, it's a police station and nothing can really go wrong there", she said.Lawrence sighed, there was really no arguing with his daughter especially if her mind was already made up."Okay, just be careful. Go with Ramirez and at the first sign of trouble, please get out of there", he said."I will, don't worry about me", Rita smiled.She left the house soon, followed closely by Ramirez and three of the security men who all wore frightening looks.Rita climbed the SUV while Ramirez manned the wheels.
