SECOND CHANCE WHIT MR. AMNESIA CEO 45. I WILL PROTECT YOU NO MATTER WHAT
He looks at her, distraught, apologising as if she were at fault for something. He pauses for a moment to observe her, and that's when she can no longer hold back and bursts into tears in his arms, causing him to momentarily forget everything else as he holds her tightly.He wants to make her feel safe and protected, to reassure her that he is there to defend her against the world. He embraces her with all his might, stroking her head and showering her with kisses while repeating over and over."I'm here now, Bella, I'm here now. No one will ever touch you like that again, I promise you. I promise, my dear.""Grandad, forgive me..., I..."Far from calming down, Bella cries even more despairingly as if releasing all the fear, pain, and suffering she has kept hidden in her chest. He continues to hold and stroke her, waiting patiently for her to calm down. Never in her twenty"three years had he heard her cry the way she does now; he knows he must let her be – she needs this release to b

When tycoon Santiago Sardino decided to settle the score, he did it in a big way. Not only did he have a network of contacts in the shadowy world of the mafia, where his name instilled fear, but he also had connections in the upper echelons of the country and politics.Santiago had built his business empire with cunning and determination, and over the years he had established strategic relationships with influential people in various fields. These connections gave him considerable power and influence, which he used wisely when necessary.But what few knew is that his weak point and at the same time his greatest strength is his family, especially his only granddaughter. Although he may appear to be a tough and fearsome man, his love and devotion to his family is unwavering. The relationship between Santiago and his granddaughter was special.Since she came into his life, she became his raison d'être and his greatest inspiration. He protects her tooth and nail, ready to face any challen

With evidence in hand, Santiago gathers his team of lawyers and heads to Isabella's father-in-law's house. His goal is to free his granddaughter without having to resort to a long and painful trial. Worried about what might be happening, Luis' father anxiously asked: “What's this all about? Go ahead, come this way.” He said trying to hide his nervousness. The atmosphere in the room was tense, and Luis' father could sense that something serious was about to be revealed. He prepared himself to listen to what Mr. Sardino had to say and wondered what his son had done to cause this unexpected visit and the serious attitude of Mr. Sardino and his lawyers.Luis' father stepped forward and showed them the way to his office, inviting everyone to come in, but Mr. Sardino ordered his lawyers to wait outside until they were called. Once the door was closed, Mr. Sardino took an envelope out of a folder and handed it to Luis' father. Luis' father took the envelope in intrigue, but when he saw it

Getting Isabella released was the goal for Santiago, more than his quest for justice. Even if it didn't go to trial, he had to get the heartless man to sign the divorce papers, to protect his granddaughter and make Luis pay. “I won't kill him for now,” he assured. “That would not be punishment enough. I will make him suffer and beg for the rest of his life. As for everything you own - it's already mine. I don't need you to give it to me. I warned you clearly I would ruin you and your family if Luis did anything to Bella, and I always keep my word. I'll leave it to my lawyers to get you to sign everything you need to.”“You can't do that, your son will go bankrupt too!” he shouted, desperate, seeing no way out but this one. “Let him go bankrupt!” was Mr Sardino's cold, forceful answer. “If he didn't know how to manage his affairs properly, I'm very sorry, but I won't let him touch his daughter's estate. And if you don't want your son to rot in jail, make him sign the divorce paper

Luis's father remained impassive, not revealing much about his wife Liana's situation. "I've done nothing to Liana. She's pregnant and has a threatened miscarriage. She was admitted to a clinic to care for the pregnancy and prevent her losing it, like the previous ones," he explained, with a tone of genuine concern. Disbelief was reflected in Eva's eyes. She had heard disturbing stories of Liana's treatment by her husband. Staring at him firmly and fearlessly, she asked: "Did you admit her to take care of her from your blows? Is that true? You don't have to fool me. I know you beat her. She used to live crying in the school's corners." Eva accused him firmly.Oswaldo felt a mixture of anger and frustration. He had not expected Eva to be so aware of the family problems he was having with his wife. "Eva, Eva, Eva..." he sighed. "You're still young, you need to watch your mouth. Is it true your father's gone bankrupt?" He abruptly changed the subject, trying to divert the conversa

The encounter with Eva had blinded Oswaldo's judgement, and he had been caught in her web for years, he recalled as he looked at the papers left by the Sardino patriarch. "That's why I said we must wait a few years, while I make Santiago junior ask his father for the inheritance early. I'll make Santiago fall blindly in love with me. You know he's a nervous wreck now, the drugs have destroyed him. I'll help him, make the psychologist help me make Santiago dependent on me, trusting me blindly. You'll see. But you must promise you'll wait and help me in everything." Eva had asked him with a certainty that almost convinced him that everything would be all right.He looked at her without understanding what she meant by "everything". Eva immediately explained that she knew nothing about business. Besides, old Sardino sure as hell wasn't going to let her in on his son's stuff. He had told her so the night he showed up with Bella. He stated that he would never let her touch anything of his

As Eva said, the psychologist had helped Santiago junior develop a dependency on her. It seemed that if she left him, he would relapse into drugs and his terrible former life, which now frightened him. That was why when she left, he panicked and gave in on condition Luis would never touch Isabella again or he would have to deal with him. And now everything has collapsed.The stupid Luis had become infatuated with Vivian, who indulged him in his darkest desires, something he loved. No matter how much his father Oswaldo insisted he abandon that woman, Luis could not. Vivian was like an addiction he couldn't live without. To his delight, Isabella didn't seem to care and had accepted everything he proposed on their engagement day. What Luis hadn't realized was his father was still waging war on Vivian - he had even taken all Luis's money and would no longer pay for the luxury apartment where Luis kept her. And Isabella's credit cards only allowed him to withdraw a certain amount before

After seeing that Isabella had noticed, he had come to his senses. Luis stopped coming to her door at night, instead staying with Vivian until his father discovered he wasn't sleeping at home. He cut off all Luis's money, insisting he must leave Vivian. That's when Luis devised taking Vivian to live with them. But he made the mistake of not discussing it with Isabella first. When Isabella objected, Luis lost his temper and hit her, thinking it would frighten Isabella into letting him do whatever he wanted. As Luis agonized, Vivian continued pleasuring him until he climaxed violently. Only then did he notice he had taken a whip and was viciously hitting Vivian. He had never heard her complain before but now her back and buttocks were covered in marks. "Sorry, sorry darling, I didn't realize what I was doing," he hurried to apologize, showering her in kisses.Vivian let him do it, knowing he had made a big mistake. She told him th

SECOND CHANCE WHIT MR. AMNESIA CEO 277 FAMILY SARDINO
Santiago and his father stared intently at the girls, who were at a loss for what to do or say. Despite her earlier words, Marta had quickly released Rodrigo's hand, and he too seemed unable to react. Isabella looked at her father and, seeing his reproachful head shake, hugged her grandmother, hiding behind her."Seriously, Bella? Are you going to pass your sister off as Rodrigo's girlfriend?" Santiago asked, trying to coax Isabella out from behind her grandmother."Dad, it's not what you think!" Marta stepped forward, attempting to defend Isabella, who was silently pleading for help. "Dad, it's not Bella who's with Rodrigo... it's me!""This is the limit, Isabella," he said, to the astonishment of all three women. "Now you want to pass Marta off as your lover's girlfriend to deceive me?""Dad!" Isabella exclaimed, emerging from behind her grandmother, who was chuckling at the mess unfolding before her. "Dad, I swear on everything sacred that I have nothing to do

He didn't know that I couldn't cash the check here. Although, about Eva's money, I think you're right. I remember hearing my father saying that Santiago's company is frozen, because it's going bankrupt. If the Sardino patriarch doesn't step in, he'll be left with nothing. So it's true what you're saying. Where's Eva going to get money from? Although, she might have her own stash hidden away."Now I understand why Eva is so agitated, although it seemed she didn't know. She says she has a good plan, it might suit us, what do you think?""Do you trust her, Luis? I don't like Eva one bit. When have you ever heard of a mother plotting to kidnap her own daughter's children? I don't like that woman, I don't. Let's hear what she's planned. But if we don't like it, we're leaving, agreed?""I don't trust her either, but she's still someone we can get money from, and right now I'm going to cash this cheque Santiago gave me to pay for Luisito's hospital bill, we can't get him out

After rescuing Adele, they had decided to leave the country for good, but to their surprise, upon returning to the house that belonged to Luis' maternal grandparents, they found a surprise. Upon opening the door, there was Vivian and her mother with the child."Mum! Vivian! What are you doing here?" Luis asked, genuinely surprised."We're so sorry, son, but the little one didn't take to the climate and had been unwell since we arrived. The doctor advised us to return to a warmer one. As we had no idea where to go, we came to stay here for a few days, so you could help us find another place. And by the way, as we couldn't send money, we collected them to come with us.""Mum, you shouldn't have done that. Dad found out about everything and he's fuming. You should have called me and explained, I would have sorted everything out from here.""Luis, it's just for a few days. Besides, I need to sort something out with my account, it won't let me withdraw the money Santi

Marta didn't respond immediately, savouring Rodrigo's warm embrace as he held her tighter and tighter, his heart beating rapidly. In that moment, she said,"It doesn't matter that you did that, I'll talk to Dad, alright?" she assured, pulling away slightly to look at him."I'd rather do it myself, man to man," Rodrigo said, holding her gaze."No!" Marta hurried to say, and added, "Daughters know best. I'll tell Mum to help me, you'll see, she'll convince them. And Bella must have realised by now and she'll help me, do you really want to do this?""Yes," Rodrigo responded firmly, "If you want it too.""Of course I do. And don't worry, if they fire you, I'll hire you, hee, hee, hee... I'll just have to pay you in a different way," and as she spoke, Marta couldn't stop running her hands over the man's well-formed torso. "I've always wanted to do this," she says without stopping caressing him, he takes her by the waist and pulls her close."And I've wanted

They quickly put on their diving suits and dive off the other side, which is impossible for those on the boat to see. Rodrigo has tied Marta to him, who follows him sinking as he indicates. The water in this area is murky, so they can't see very well, so they swim close to each other until they reach the shore. They emerge slowly, releasing the oxygen tanks, and that's when Marta runs and hugs Rodrigo and kisses him. At first, he doesn't respond, but then he returns the kiss. When they separate, she is very flushed and says,"Sorry about that, I was really scared," she says, looking down blushing.Rodrigo just looks at her, then takes her by the hand and they run along the shore, until they reach the road, while he calls Santiago."Yes, sir, we escaped, we're on the road, come for us," he asks without stopping running with her hand in his.They continue walking hand in hand in silence. Marta holds on tightly, not letting Rodrigo let go of her hand the times he ha

On the other hand, Marta is sitting across from Christie, in the office that used to be Christian's."Is it necessary for you to do this, Marta?" Christie asks very seriously."Yes, I'm going to work with dad, I can't stand being here anymore, where no one talks to me and they whisper when they see me pass," Marta states firmly. "Besides, it's for my safety.""Your safety?" Christie asks, intrigued."Yes, I have a madman chasing me," Marta confesses, knowing she can trust Christie as she stands up. "Thanks for everything, Christie. When I finish writing the story of my sister and your brother, I'll bring it to you to publish. Say hello to Chris for me, a kiss, if you need my help with anything, just call. You know my number."And she turns her back, leaving to meet the security guard Rodrigo, who is waiting for her with two other men."Let's go to my office, so you can help me pack my things to leave," Marta asks, and walks past them towards the l

There's a brief silence as he listens to the employee moving away into the stables, only to emerge later with a horse."Noel, have you seen my wife around the farm in the last few days?" he repeats his question."No, no, lad, it's just a figure of speech," the man hurries to clarify. "You seem like a lost soul, it must be because of her, even though the children come every day. You've got her under your skin, you should go back to her. Mrs Isabella is a good person. Think about it, she's still waiting for you, don't delay too much or when you want her back, someone else might have taken her.""You too, Noel?" he asks, disappointed."What do you mean?" the old man asks as he prepares the horse Christian requested."Elmira keeps saying that someone's going to steal her away. I hope she finds a healthy man who loves her like I do and makes her happy! You're right about what you say, Isabella is a good woman, that's why she doesn't deserve to be tied to a blind

On the other hand, Christian was somewhat doubtful after waking up, he still smelled Isabella's scent on the bed sheets and on his body. Was it a dream or had his wife come to sleep with him? He went down to the kitchen to talk to the security guards, who told him that they hadn't seen anyone come in or out, that only the servants would be around. Mrs Elmira also assured him of the same."That's because you miss her a lot, now that the children have come," she said, trying to get him to reconsider and call his wife. "Why don't you ask her to come back?""No, I can't condemn her to live with a blind man," Christian gave the same answer he gave to everyone."That's the least of it," Elmira dared to say. "Mrs Isabella truly loves you.""Elmira, I don't want you to tell my wife anything about my situation," Christian warned fearfully, knowing that they got along very well."Don't worry, sir, but it would be nice if she came back, she's very good," El
SECOND CHANCE WHIT MR. AMNESIA CEO 269. ISABELLA'S STRATEGY
Isabella had left almost at dawn, feeling that she had to fight a tough battle to win back her husband, Christian. Now she felt regretful for having been away from him for so long. So, the next day, she decided to send the children to spend the day with their father again. And she sent a message with Lucas."Dad, Mum's asking if you can pick us up from school every afternoon?" Lucas asked anxiously. "Say yes, Dad.""Every afternoon?" Christian asked, concerned."Yes, she's got a lot of work with Grandad, and since you're at home, she thought you'd like us to come and be with you here. Say yes, Dad, please," the boy pleaded."I like it, I like it, that's not it. I also have work..." Christian said, trying to refuse, because he knew that if they came every day, they would eventually realise what was happening to him. He was blind. "I don't know if I can do it every day.""Say yes, Daddy," his sweet little girl Lucy asked, sitting on his lap and showering him w
