SECOND CHANCE WHIT MR. AMNESIA CEO 216. THE MACABRE PLAN
Her friend Susan was terrified of her parents, but trusted Santiago madly. She had arranged to meet him to ask to move up the wedding before her parents found out what she had done. Eva bought two tickets and told her she would be going abroad with her mother. She asked her to accompany to the airport, and with the help of a friend, they planned to drug her.But the night before she was supposed to leave, on which her friend was to meet her boyfriend, she sent a message to Santiago breaking up with him. He got drunk at the same bar where she was waiting for him. He kept calling Susan, who was asleep due to a sleeping pill she had put in her tea. She answered the call and went to meet him at the bar in a hotel. They went up to a room together. She lay naked next to him after undressing him.The next day, she put on a whole show crying, saying he had taken advantage of her and that she had lost her virginity to him, something that the bloodstain she had taken from a cu

Eva picked up her phone and called her husband Santiago, but he didn't answer. She was worried, it was the first time this had happened. She would have to go back home again, she thought. She only had a few thousand in a bank account in her name. She didn't want to spend that money. Damn it! I have to delay everything now. She continued towards her room when she received a call."Hello.""Hello, Mrs. Eva, it's Luis.""Luis? What do you want?""I was wondering if you have time to meet with me and Adele, I came up with another plan that you might be interested in.""Luis, I can't right now, I have something else in mind. I'll call you later, let me know when you're going to do what you told me.""Don't do something like what Adele did, we have to be very well coordinated. We are facing a very powerful enemy.""Alright, I'll let you go now, I have something to figure out."She continued moving towards the room, still thinking about and anal

When he realised she would be useful for something, he took her out of school. But once again, things had not gone as expected. Luis, in his stupidity, had ruined the job that had cost him so much to accomplish. And Isabella, instead of calling her father, making it possible for her to find out in time and prevent her from escaping.Isabella had asked for help from her grandfather, who annulled her marriage and disappeared her from the country, thwarting his plans to acquire the old man's fortune. Not even her husband had helped in his effort to find his daughter. It seemed more like he was glad she had gone with her parents. And now that she had returned, she thought she could sell her to a higher bidder. She was married, no less, to the most sought-after heir in high society. Christian Thompson. And not only that, she had two children with him!How did the foolish Isabella manage to catch him? That, for sure, had been the work of the old Sardino. She remembered he

He is sitting in his office, smiling as he looks at the photos of Lucas and Luci that Marta just brought him in a frame that he proudly places on his desk. He can't help but smile, they look happy. He still remembers when he took that picture of them, it was on their birthday, which by the way, he still doesn't know the result of the investigation. He picks up his phone and dials Grandpa Sardino, who answers right away, and asks for a meeting to meet up."Can I come to your office, Grandpa? I don't want to talk about it at home.""If it's about what happened at the birthday, leave that to me and your father-in-law. Focus on getting better, let's see if you keep recovering your memory.""But Grandpa...""Christian, listen to me son. Santiago and I will handle it and when we have the results we will let you know. You need to be very happy so you can remember how much you loved your wife. I trust you, okay? Don't come, we'll talk at home. Oh, the yacht is free if yo

I've been in the warehouse for over three hours organising the files with Marta for the new projects. We also want to input all the information into the computers. Suddenly, my phone rings."Hello?""Bella, it's me, Mum.""Mum?" I ask, unable to believe it. "What do you want?""Nothing, aren't you happy to hear from me? Don't you even care about your mother?""Mum, I know you're doing well on your cruise. I ask Dad about you every day. So, tell me why you called, I'm busy.""No, I just wanted to know how you were, my daughter, that's all.""I'm fine, thanks.""Do you know anything about your father?"I realise that's the real reason she called. She wants to know what's going on with Dad. Thankfully, he warned me about this. I know he cut off all the money from the cards. I'm sure she's calling to find out what's happening. Dad told me what to say, so I focused on telling her our plan."Dad moved in with us because he's ba

I am very happy to have reunited the shipping companies. They complement each other. Dad was right about that when he told me. Thank goodness I am feeling much better. Doctor Alfonso was right in everything he explained to me. I don't understand how Eva was able to do that to me, it's true that I didn't love her, but I always treated her very well. I gave her all the money she wanted, bought her everything she wanted to buy. And still, it wasn't enough for her, she had to sell our daughter.I knew Bella couldn't be in love with that guy. If Luis thinks she's going to slip through my fingers because of what he did to my daughter, he's very wrong. He will pay dearly for what he dared to do. It seems like everyone has forgotten who I am. I have to remind them all. It's enough for me to lament losing Susan. Many years have passed since then. And even though I don't believe what Eva told me, I know something happened to my Susan, my heart tells me so, she wouldn't abandon me like sh

"Because even though you don't remember me, I, on the other hand, could not forget your beautiful hair. I promised myself to come for you when I became an adult. I have just turned eighteen, and I have come for you.""I'm sorry to tell you that you made a trip in vain. My only love has always been Santiago, and it will continue to be for the rest of my life. Santi, I came to find you so you can accompany me to ask my parents for permission, for what you asked me. Shall we go?"I hadn't missed Thompson's look of hatred directed towards me. Nor his desire-filled gaze on Susan. I was sure I would have serious problems with him because of my girlfriend. As we were leaving, I heard him say,"I'm not giving up, I came for you and I won't leave empty-handed.""Stop the jokes Thompson, I think you should know that Susan is my fiancée, the woman I'm going to marry, so show some respect," I reprimanded him sternly."Let's go Santi," Susan pleaded.

Christian hurried to help Marta with the box full of files, then placed it on a table. Isabella looked at him, not understanding what he wanted. His sister-in-law, Christie, also helped to arrange everything."Didn't we say we were going to organise everything?" Isabella asked, still working."We did, darling, but now my treatment is more important," Christian replied with a smile."What treatment?""What do you think, Bella? The happiness treatment," Christie said, laughing at her sister-in-law's surprised expression. "The company is ours, and we can do things whenever we want. Especially what you're doing now, we can take it home and do it together.""Not a bad idea," Christian agreed. "Let's do it as my sister says. Now leave everything as it is and let's go. We're all going on a family trip.""What do you mean by all?" Isabella asked."Exactly that, the whole family is going for a walk.""The whole, whole family?" Isabella asked again.

Afterwards, she followed Susan abroad. She made her suffer as much as she wanted, taking revenge for Santiago's rejection. She managed to hide her well throughout the pregnancy. She claimed to be a surrogate mother, then staged the whole suicide spectacle, and the rest was easy. The hospital where she had Susan confined, apart from not knowing her real name and origin, was full of heartless people. When she returned, she was carrying Isabella in her arms.She had made her friend believe that the child was stillborn. Susan suffered a nervous breakdown, but she made sure it worsened by swapping her pills for ones that caused hallucinations. Susan was admitted to a psychiatric hospital. Eva ensured, by paying a doctor, that she would never be released and would remain ill. She visited annually to pay the doctor and make certain they wouldn't let her out.Old man Sardino never liked her from the first time he saw her. He accepted her after the paternity test proved Isabe

She took another long sip from the wine glass in her hand, emptying it, and refilled it as she reclined, inexplicably recalling her life. Was it because she had managed to acquire her parents' house when they first came to her for help? It was the only thing left of their entire fortune.At fifteen, her parents went bankrupt as the debts she had caused them to incur were too much for mere merchants. They weren't millionaires, but they had a good life. She had everything she wanted, everything! If they didn't buy it willingly, she'd get it herself, pawning or selling anything she could behind their backs. All that mattered was maintaining her status among the high society crowd.Her best friend, silly Susan, as she called her. After Eva put on quite a performance about her parents abandoning her on the street and disappearing with all their wealth. She played the part well, even saying she'd decided to end her life.She knew Susan would immediately take pit

He stood up, fetched her a glass of water, and made sure she drank it all. Then, he sat beside her and embraced her tightly, still without saying a word. Only when he felt her relax did he speak."Isa, you're not to blame for any of this. It was they who did this and killed your parents. As Rodrigo told you, how could you have known they were planning to plant a bomb on your parents' yacht to murder them and take everything?" Santiago tried to make her understand and stop crying and feeling guilty. "It's true that you should have told me from the beginning so I'd know what to expect, but I still understand your situation."Santiago paused, seeing that Marta was crying more, and embraced her affectionately again. Then, wiping away her tears, he told her that regarding taking advantage of Isabella, he didn't believe that was the case. She was the sister that Bella needed to move forward in Paris. Despite being with her grandparents, they were often absent due to Tania's illn

At this moment, Santiago didn't know what to think. He trusted Humberto implicitly and knew that what he was saying was true. Humberto had lost his daughter to enemies and had since lived solely for Isabella. But how had Isabella become pregnant if she hadn't been assaulted?"Were you, by any chance, in the operating theatre or the recovery room?" Santiago asked hopefully."No," Humberto answered thoughtfully.Santiago sighed, feeling a great pain in his chest. "Do you think it could have happened there?""That would be the only place where they could have done it to her, but she was in a terrible state at that time. I don't think they would have been capable of doing it with so many people around," Humberto said, visibly affected. "But I'll find out, I assure you, sir. If anyone touched young Isabella, I'll kill them, no matter who they are.""Are you certain no one could have done it later in her room?" Santiago repeated the question.Humberto s

Santiago stood for a moment looking at his security guard in whom he trusted more than himself in the care of his daughter. That was why he measured the way he spoke to Humberto, because he knew he had done an excellent job."Humberto, ever since Eva appeared with my daughter, I entrusted you with her care. I asked you to look after her as if she were your own," Santiago began, his tone uncharacteristically serious. "Before you even consider deceiving me or lying about what I'm about to ask, I warn you that I know my daughter's entire story. That's why I need you to be honest and tell me the truth. I know you're loyal to her and her alone, and I'm grateful for that. But something has happened to Isabella, and I need you to be truthful with me.""What's happened to young Isabella?" Humberto asked, concern evident in his voice."First, you'll answer my questions before I answer yours," Santiago interjected. "Did you know that Luis had beaten her?""Yes," Humb

Eva leant forward and took the floor, proceeding to explain that Mrs Thompson was the sole heiress of a very powerful family involved in the alcoholic beverage industry. After marrying Thompson and inheriting everything, all the factories and businesses of that family ceased to exist. Some were dismantled or repurposed, and most were sold off."Many rumours suggested that Mr Thompson forced his wife to sell her entire inheritance to advance his own company," Eva continued, "but no one knows for certain what happened to the enormous sum of money she possessed and the proceeds from the sale of all her assets. You might find something there."Néstor remained pensive until he finally decided to investigate the matter. He also agreed that Eva and Oswaldo should leave for another country, as his father was already protesting about keeping them there."Very well," Néstor said, nodding thoughtfully. "I'll look into this. As for you two, make arrangements t

Eva glared at him with murderous intent, but Oswaldo had long since stopped minding what he said to her. He continued, unfazed by Eva's furious gaze."That drug you were giving him was truly potent. Your plan worked out well, but you failed to make the most of it. You devoted yourself to living the high life—well, to be honest, we both lived the high life on your husband's money—instead of squirrelling away funds in an account for when he'd leave you penniless, as he has now. Because I'm certain you knew your relationship with him had an expiration date."Eva remained silent for a moment after Oswaldo finished. Then she took the bottle, poured herself a glass, and topped up Oswaldo's. They both sat down again, with Oswaldo watching her contentedly."You know what? I'll give you that," Eva agreed, to Oswaldo's surprise as he peered at her through the smoke of his cigar. "Though I must confess, I thought I had a few more years before he'd wake up. When

The employee hesitated for a moment, gathering his thoughts before continuing with his report. He knew that every detail could be crucial in his boss's schemes."After he and his sister returned from studying abroad, Christian devoted himself to travelling between his city and the one where they now live, always pursuing his current wife. He would stay at the same hotel, Le Méridien, have one or two drinks, and then disappear. He was always accompanied by his bodyguards.""Blast it! There must be something we can use to trick him," Néstor exclaimed. "Call Eva; she's bound to know some weakness in that family. As for Susan, no one has paid much attention to that, since she herself went on television saying those rumours were false, that she was never kidnapped by the Thompsons and the Sardinos, and that she would soon marry Santiago. She looked happy with her grandchildren."While they were discussing in the office, Eva, in her room with Oswaldo, couldn

Santiago looked at Christian with a mixture of confusion and disbelief, waiting for an explanation."Because in trying to deceive my parents, I deceived myself," Christian answered honestly."What do you mean?" Santiago continued to question him, unable to believe what he was hearing."The paternity tests I had done were with hair from my sister and me. She helped me to avoid marrying Adele, and we managed to fool my parents," Christian explained, smiling as he realised he only needed to do tests with Lucas and Lucia."This is unheard of, absolutely unheard of!" Santiago exclaimed, and then immediately asked, "Are you telling me that all this time you've believed your children weren't yours, and Isabella still thinks that?""Not just her, her parents too," Christian revealed, causing his father-in-law to look at him uncomprehendingly."My parents? What do you mean?" Santiago asked, though he suspected the answer."Grandfather came up with the idea
