Nora
“Look here, beautiful baby. Look. Mammy has something for you.” My baby wouldn't take his eyes off the multi-coloured candy cane that I was holding in my hand. His little arms reached out to try to grab the desired object. I gave him the candy and watched how his face lit up with excitement. Edward surprises me more every day in this short time. He has achieved so much that it makes me wonder whether it is normal for a 5-month-old baby to do such things. We left the hospital the day after he was born; I did not want to let him go for a single moment. He was so small and so fragile that anything could hurt him. Whenever we hit a bump in the road, I couldn't help but yell at Tomas to be more careful. The following day, I regretted my behaviour and apologized to him. However, I do feel scared. Fear that so

it's not possibleNoraMy baby, Rosa, and I spent the morning in Edward's room. This place was a great surprise to me when we returned from the Hospital. Erik guided me here, it was a door that I had not had access before. My jaw dropped at the sight of all this. It was a fully equipped room with everything my baby could need, and it was amazing. It had a fairly large baby changing unit, with drawers to store what was necessary. The place was completely covered with carpet. There was a wooden crib in the middle of everything, and on the sides, it had small bureaus. In one of them was a pastel-coloured lamp, projecting stars. Erik opened the closet and showed me blankets, sheets, towels, etc… On the other side, all the clothes that I had not imagined a baby would wear. A boot filled with educational toys was positioned in one corner of the r

I am the dumbest woman in the worldNoraWhen I most needed someone by my side, Hilda, my friend, was there for me. They can't be telling the truth. Everything they have said must be false. But despair crept into my stomach. Was all this time a way for them to manipulate Erik through me? It doesn't make sense. I was nobody to him. How could they control him through me? Absolutely not. My back was against the wall, as was my head. I found what I had heard impossible to believe, and I would never have believed it if I hadn't witnessed it in person. My best friend was using me. She preyed on my vulnerability to gain my trust. When we met at her house for the first time, it was planned. I can never forget the excuse she used to justify Gonzalo's aggressive behaviour that day. I remember her words as if it were yesterday.

I would not let anyone inErikA week ago, Vinci came to give me the information in person. And the information that his informant had gathered from Gonzalo was quite important. Based on what he told me, I decided to send my specialized team to investigate. We need to monitor the most important delivery points where he does business. I also decided to follow his key leaders. Perhaps they will reveal something that will help us to take him down. It amazes me how this man has managed to deceive me like this. This just shows how dangerous and smart he is. Furthermore, having negotiated with the FBI, now he has a free passage for his organization, and that is something. Who is his contact in the government? Once I find out, things will turn out well for me. Especially now, that Vinci, is cooperating with me. Who would have thought? The Italian bastard, and the Venezuelan huarachudo together, with a common aim. The Lazzaro has always been a well-established organization. Despite Gonzalo

Hilda was the one?ErikDuring the following minutes, I continued to examine information that would help me gain control over Gonzalo. It was then, that my mobile rang. This put me on alert, since people who know my number were instructed not to call me for any reason. Someone can trace the call, but this seems like a big deal. I saw that it came from an unknown number, so I accepted the call, without saying anything.“Finally, Venezuelan. You took your sweet time to answer me. I have something very important to tell you.”Adrenaline began to release through me. Hearing that Vinci had very important intel, put my mind flying wild. “Vinci, you can compromise my location, putting my family in danger through this call.”

I promisedErikI shook her hard and yelled, “LOOK AT ME, NORA.” She reacted to my words and at that moment her tears began to flow, like an endless stream. “Nora, I'll bring their heads to you. We'll make them pay for what they have done. I give you my word.” I hugged her and placed her head on my shoulder in the same way that I do with little Edward. Nora continued, heartbroken, crying. “I will not let anything happen to all of you. You, my baby, and my mom are my priority. They will pay with their lives, I swear to you.”Nora stopped shaking and stayed still in my arms. She raised her head and her eyes were filled with hatred and resentment. I knew that look well. It was the look of someone who had lost a part of herself. Nora muttered, “Promise me, Erik, I

We must get readyErik“His mansion is impenetrable. I have been there thousands of times. There is no safer place in this country. The perimeter has motion sensors. Even a mouse can activate them. We need a secure entrance, one that does not arouse suspicion. Inside, things would be different.”“That's the first meaningful idea I've heard since I got here, and it's been several hours. And Erik, I believe you just gave me the answer to our problems.”My eyes turned away from Gonzalo's mansion construction plans and directed them toward Vinci. “And what is that great solution?” Vinci arched his mouth to the side and, with an arrogant look, he said. “My informant is a very close employee of Gonzalo. He will let us pass, I have no doubt about that." For a long time, I have wondered, who is this

Will you trust me, Nora?ErikThe atmosphere in my house was very relaxed. I turned around and saw my men talking to each other, laughing, and enjoying the food. Vinci was telling jokes, surrounded by his men. My mom was talking to Nora, while I had Edward sitting on my lap. This is how I had to continue to maintain my life. Not only that, but that's how it must have been from the beginning. It was up to me that this would continue like this, and that's what I was going to do. Minutes later, we were all finished, and it was time to return to our reality. There was an attack pending, which had to be detailed. “Nora, I need to go back to my office. If you need anything, let me know.” She looked at me like she didn't know me. I don't blame her, in our years of knowing each other, I always offered her the worst of me. I stared at her and s

We are readyErikHe laughed out loud because he must have read my thoughts. “You don't have to worry, Erik. They are here only for Gonzalo and his wife.” He intensified his gaze and became serious. “Erik, we're on the same side, aren't we? You and me, joining forces against that rat. As long as you have my back, I will have yours.” He said this with a maniacal expression on his face. It took him a few seconds to get back to reality. In the end, he turned away from me and sat down on the sofa as if nothing had happened. I took out my communicator and requested the presence of Thomas and Raul. The two arrived a little while later. Once gathered, I addressed everyone. “Gentleman, tonight we will attack. Our chance of being successful depends on how effective we are in avoiding detection. Only the six of us will go

For you, my love Nora "So Vinci's idea was perfect, to finish him in front of you. But I'm curious, Hilda. What did you think when your trusted employee, Philips, appeared in this same cell with a knife in hand? Followed by his daughter, who, by the way, was carrying a bigger one. Rita, that's her name, in case you don't remember. She is another woman whose life you destroyed. Do you remember, Hilda? Gonzalo's terrified face? When the two of them approached him and started stabbing him everywhere? I think he was hit several times in the head, and that, Hilda, was entertaining. Do you also remember how his body, still alive, bled at your feet? and you did nothing? That must have hurt, but you deserve it. But that's enough talk for now, as I told you at the beginning, I have a very busy day. Oh! Didn't I tell you? I'm having a party, and I invited a lot of people. The guys from the rescue centre, Ruth, Vinci, and of course my family, my parents, Rosa, Erik, and my baby.” I looked at

My last talk to you Nora Upon entering the building, we immediately took the elevator. My destination is the basement. When the doors opened, another guard received us. He already had what I needed ready. First, he handed me a mask, and immediately, I put it on. The smell of this place is disgusting. I think I'll have to tell Erik to do a deep cleaning. It is not healthy for our staff to be in these conditions, even if they are used to it. “Madame, please follow me.” Luis, is always so kind. “Thank you, this will be my last visit, and I sincerely hope I never have to return.” “Yes, Mrs. Costa, this place is not for you. Your eyes should never have seen all this.” I agree, but circumstances brought me to this point in my life, where I couldn't help it. “Luis, thank you very much. You are right in saying that this is not for me, but I am obliged. I have a promise to keep, and this is the only way.” I followed Luis down the corridor to the cells. He was carrying the suitcase with the

Time to fulfil my promise Nora Ten months have passed since the attack, and my body is completely recovered. I only carry with me the scars that the knife left me. Those same scars that I will be able to remove later. I don't want anything to remind me of anything that had happened. “Where is it, mommy?” “Oh! My love, we are almost there.” My baby has grown so much. He already speaks and understands many things perfectly. “Look at that one,” I pointed my finger at the crypt that was filled with flowers. My baby let go of my hand and ran towards I pointed with a bouquet of flowers in his hand. He turned to see if I had already arrived so that together, we will place the flowers on his grave. “Tell Daddy Edward what you did this week in the classroom.

My parent's truthNoraErik shook his head, letting us know how ridiculous this conversation was. “OK, I better hurry,” Rosa said, walking towards the kitchen. The three of us stayed in the room, enjoying this moment, this peace. I would not change this for anything. But after a while, Erik looked at me carefully. I knew he wanted to tell me something, but apparently, it was going to be a difficult subject, because he was struggling with himself. “What is Erik? Tell me at once.” He nodded his head and said, “Yesterday, I talked to your dad.” No, not that. I was about to tell him that I did not want to know anything about him, when Erik hardened his gaze and, with authority in his voice, he stopped me. “No, Nora, listen to me this time. And I don't want you to speak until I finish. Later, you can tell me wh

When I opened my eyesNoraA week ago, I woke up after I almost lost my life at the hands of that monster. Fortunately, Erik arrived in time to save our lives. If the man had gone first for my baby or Rosa, Oh! I don't want to think about it any more, because it would have been devastating. That day, when I opened my eyes, Erik's face was the first thing I see. Not only did he look bad, but he also smelled bad. That was what I first said to him when I saw him. “Eric, you look like a homeless man. What has happened to you?” He widened my eyes in surprise as he gently grabbed my hand. The whole of my body ached. I didn't know how long had passed since I fell unconscious. Then he smiled at me and said, “welcome, my love, it was time for you to wake up.”Even though I can now get ou

DieNoraThe man nodded his head and smiled slightly. Then he raised his head, looking at the ceiling as if he were remembering something. And then he returned his gaze to me, saying. “Laura, you knew her very well. She was one of your husband's lovers.” What that man told me surprised me even more. But I didn't say anything and just waited for him to continue. “She was one of the most beautiful women in the country, and she had to be the one chosen to go undercover. Only someone this beautiful would be able to attract the attention of one of the most wanted criminals in the country. Of course, we couldn't just come and arrest him out of nowhere. We needed evidence, and Laura was perfect for this. She gathered all kinds of evidence for his arrest. But we failed her. All her efforts, and for what? HA! FOR NOTHING”
Nora and Erik; When we were nothing Chapter 87
And who is Laura?NoraNodding my head, I turned around and opened the door carefully, closing it behind me. With what I'm going to do, I hope Rosa and my baby would have enough time to escape. With every step I took, I felt my legs shaking, because I was walking towards my death. My eyes searched for something that could help me defend myself, but I found nothing. The hallway was empty. My only hope was to go to the kitchen and grab a knife or something to knock him out. I stepped into the living room and, without making a sound, leaned out to see if I could see the man. I looked everywhere, but I couldn’t see him. That made me tremble. Where is he? The only way I could protect myself was to go into the kitchen and get a weapon. So I passed through the room and entered it. After opening the door a bit, I looked inside. The place was empty,

The intruderNora"Erik, are you there?” I knocked on his office door several times, but no one answered. Where have they gone? Nor do I see anyone from the Vinci group. Have they already left, and without telling me anything? I turned around and walked to Rosa's room. She was taking care of my baby while I was preparing his bottle of milk. I'm sure she will know if they have already left. I was very nervous. Erik told me that he would attack Gonzalo soon, but nothing else. Outside Rosa's room, I opened the door and walked in. She was playing with Edward on the bed. Just seeing my baby made my heart fill with pride. He was growing up so fast, and he was getting even more beautiful than he already was.“Rosa, I can't find Erik anywhere. Neither of Vinci's people. Do you think they have already left without a warning?” Rosa stopped playing with Edward and turned to see me. But I was surprised by the expression she was showing me. She was so serious all of a sudden that I didn't know how

Something is wrong Erik That reminded me of Nora. She can finally have her revenge together with all of us. So I grabbed the phone and dialled her number. I was nervous for some reason. I wanted to get home as soon as possible. Leaving them alone wasn’t a good idea, but there was no other choice. The good thing is that there was a security team guarding the property. The phone rang several times, but no one answered it. I tried again, thinking that she was in the kitchen and would have left it in the room. So I decided to dial my mom, she never fails to answer my calls. I called over and over again, but nothing. I started to feel more anxious. This was not good, I need someone to answer me. “Raul, contact Daniel. I need his report immediately.” “Yes, Boss.” Raul got down to business, and after a few tries, he turned to me and shook his head. At that moment, I felt a punch in my gut. It can't be, this was not right. So I said to the driver, “Go as fast as possible, I need to get hom
