THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 32
Even if she felt like a helpless worm in front of Elijah, Maria Fernanda knew how to still stand up. No one had the right to make her feel less. It was enough with all she had gone through. It seemed like people didn’t like it when it comes to being a genuine soul. They were always there to remind us we’re nothing in this world with a transparent soul. They were always there to destroy that beautiful soul and make us as false as them. And then, they’re asking why we're so false. This wasn’t the kinda world where everyone could be happy without being judged. This was the world of falseness. “I don’t know who told you that. I don’t know what you’re doing here, but let me tell that if Mr. de la Fuente sent you here to try what he couldn’t because I asked him to go, let me tell that-“ “No one sent me here, Maria Fernanda!” Elijah raised his voice. “Oh! Really? And are you expecting me to believe that?” “Seems like this is where we start opening up, right?”“Just tell the man I don’t
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 33
Unbuckling the seat belt when Stefan told her they were already there, Maria Fernanda couldn’t help but look at the little salon he had taken her to start working on what he had said. It was late, but at the end it was never late to start getting revenge on those who never listened to her. She was innocent and no one cared about it. Why would she care about the time to get her revenge? “Okay, please make yourself home,” Stefan said, turning on the lights of the salon.At that moment Maria Fernanda was able to see it wasn’t just a salon. It was more than that. “Wuooo, a kitchen?” She asked. “Yep, my first kitchen.” “I thought you were just the kind of man who enjoyed ordering others but never dared to move a single finger.”Stefan laughed. “Oh! Kinda funny, eh? To have inherited all you see now I had to learn so much, I had to feel passion towards the amazing world of cooking. My grandfather might’ve been strict but I really appreciate it. I wouldn’t have become the person I am now
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 34
Enjoying the meals they had prepared for the last four almost five hours, Stefan and Maria Fernanda found themselves smiling at each other and giving thumbs up. The meals all together were really wonderful. There wasn't anything that could interfere in the success of the new restaurants that Stefan was going to open up.“Seems like I’ve found my perfect chef.” The man said, undoing the knot of his apron. Maria Fernanda nodded. “Seems like I’ll ask for a raise.” “Of course, let me know how much you want and I’ll give you as much as you need.” Stefan laughed. “Don’t show off your last name.”“Oh! Right! You don’t like rich men to brag about their fortune but are friends with Elijah. Anyways, let’s fix the new salary for one of my favorite chefs. What else do you want?” Continued asking the man while ordering the kitchen. Maria Fernanda looked at him without Stefan noticing it. ‘I just want my five years back. I just want that part of my life you took away from me. Can you do that f
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 35
With pickles and cream on the face, Adamaris enjoyed her time listening to her favorite music. She smiled thinking about the new life that was waiting for her as soon as her friend decided to move in with her grandfather because if something was obvious it was the fact that she was indeed going with her. They had shared hell in jail. Why wouldn’t they share heaven now? All of a sudden, the music Adamaris was listening to paused by the coming call. She took off one of the pickles she had on her eyes and saw the ID of the person calling. It was an unknown number. “Hello? It’s Adamaris. How can I help you?” She answered anyway. The person on the other line cleared his throat. “Adamaris?” It was a man. Adamaris couldn’t help but feel excited. Many faces came to her mind. “Yes, how can I help you?” She changed the tone of her voice. “I’m Elijah. I-I… You.. Do you remember me?” Adamaris smiled and crossed her legs. “Of course, handsome. How can I forget a face as beautiful as yours?”
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 36
With their luggage being carried by the people who worked for Mr. de la Fuente, Maria Fernanda and her friend arrived at the palace of the de la Fuente family. Elijah was already waiting for them in the living room. “Seems like the heir has come.” Elijah greeted Maria Fernanda. “Seems like the handsome man will have to swallow his words, right?” Adamaris attacked. Elijah smiled. That made Adamaris hallucinated. He was such a perfect man. “Please, Miss. Adamaris, you can choose a room on the third floor. I need to talk to Maria Fernanda.” “Sorry, I’m not going anywhere without my friend. We need to choose the room together, right, Fernanda?” Maria Fernanda just smiled. “Go. Choose another one for me. I don’t care.” “Okay, your room has to be next to mine.” And then, Adamaris turned around to continue her way. Maria Fernanda and Elijah smiled at each other. “Your friend is really… something, right?” “She has been the only one this time. Without her I would have gone crazy.
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 37
Being the good listener he always was to his friend, this time didn’t let him fall despite all the things Stefan had done. No matter how many times they disagreed, they were still friends, and Stefan had to understand Ricardo just wanted the best for his friend. “I don’t know what’s wrong with me, Ricardo. I don’t know.” Stefan accepted after having told him the last events between Maria Fernanda and him. With his legs crossed, Ricardo smiled. In a way, it made him happy to see his friend so desperate to know what was going on in his heart. “Why do you keep smiling? This is not funny!” Stefan claimed. Ricardo raised his hands as he was free of guilt. “No, of course it’s not funny for the person who’s going through it, but it is indeed for the ones who are out, seeing the truth you don’t want to see.” “I don’t know what you’re talking about, Ricardo!”“Maria Fernanda, that stubborn woman, the one you said you wanted to sign the contract to make out of her life a vivid hell, she is
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 38
“You’re not in love with him, right?” Adamaris insisted. What Maria Fernanda had explained to her for the last two hours sitting at the garden, hadn’t been enough for her to understand how all of that happened. Her sister had said she had kissed twice the man who was supposed to make pay for what he did to her. And all of a sudden, they kissed?! “Don’t be a stupid! I can’t be in love with the man who tore my life apart. I can’t forgive the man who destroyed my life.” “To be honest I haven’t seen you make any move against Stefan de la Barrera.” Maria Fernanda just looked at her. Adamaris shrugged. “I’m just saying. Don’t look at me like that.” “In moments like this I think Antonio was always right.” “Oh! Shit, what are you saying now?”“Antonio once said revenges will always take both into the grave. A revenge cannot be completed just by one suffering. It’d be karma, and to allow karma to make its work… the victims have to forgive. I can’t forgive him. I really can’t.” “Maybe…”
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 39
THREE MONTHS LATER “Okay, I think it is all done here.” Said Stefan, getting up from his seat. Ricardo smiled, taking the documents Stefan had just signed. “What?” Stefan insisted. He really knew his friend to know something was going on in his mind and was the reason why he smiled like that. “Ricardo, what’s going on now?” “No, Nothing. I just… you know.” “No, I don’t know, and it’s the reason why I’m asking you. What’s happening now, Ricardo?” “Some people say, the more you smile, the more wrinkles you’re going to have. Stefan, you’re too young to have wrinkles.”Stefan laughed. “I don’t understand.” “Be honest, do you plan to marry her?” “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Stefan laughed nervously. Effectively, it had been three months since all of that had started again. Those three months hadn’t brought him more than happiness. For the first time in years he felt completed, he felt happy, he had wishes, and every morning he woke up was a new beginning. Maria Fernan

THE CEO'S REVENGE EPILOGUE
ONE YEAR LATER“Happy birthday, Adamaris!” Everyone said out loud, clapping.Adamaris looked around and smiled. It was exactly what she would’ve wanted. She may not have a family, but earned one with Isela. Now that she was back from Italy, Isela had offered her a job in the company her grandfather had left in her hands. Mr. Arturo had started to have some complications with his health, so Isela was named the CEO of the company. Adamaris was also enjoying her life. Her dreams come true, and we’re not talking about the dreams she had when she started studying, we’re also talking about those unreachable stars that may be seen unreachable. Adamaris had everything, life had come back and paid her for what it took from her.“Hey, hey, take me a picture with the birthday girl!” A male voice asked.Everyone laughed.“Just the birthday girl, or your fiancé as well?” Adamaris raised her voice.Laughing, Elijah came closer to her and hugged by behind.“Don’t get mad, Ada, I was just saying.”“W
THE CEO'S REVENGE FINAL
When autumn came the leaves would fall. When spring came the flowers around her would blossom, but what about the love that was still hanging from the thread of revenge and the pain that caused the same one?Finally, she was free. It had been two months since the last time she saw Stefan. What a small world was that where she fell in love with the person her sister also loved? Stefan had also been affected by the truth Elijah had to tell him. Eliza was pregnant with the baby of Stefan and got rid of him to love freely her own cousin.Therapy and so much strength was what Isela needed. In those two months she had received help and finally, decided to embrace her real name: Isela de la Fuente. One of the de la Fuente's sisters, the one her father lost when she left Isela’s mother. Eliza was the product of the love Isela’s father never felt for the one who he got married to, and Isela was the product of the love her father felt for her mother when she worked for the family. Neither Isela
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 63
When Elijah got to the room Mr. de la Fuente was using, he could see through the door that was slightly opened a different side of Adamaris, maybe the most vulnerable one. He had never seen that side of Adamaris, she was always the one with the sparking personality, the one who didn’t care about anything but having the most handsome and successful man with her. That was exactly what he thought when he went behind her and found her in the hands of that stranger who just wanted to take advantage of her. Too late he was realizing the fact of not having a family by her side also caused pain.Alone in that room, by Mr. de la Fuente’s side, she could be vulnerable. With the hand of Arturo between hers, her head relying on her hands and sobbing, Elijah could see she was suffering for Mr. de la Fuente. She was worried, she was praying for his health, and was taking care of him as Maria Fernanda hadn’t had the time to.“Please, Mr. de la Fuente… Please, you have to stay with your granddaughter
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 62
At the hospital General where Maria Fernanda had been taken, Elijah was in the waiting room with his head between his legs, remembering what had just happened. He didn’t want to know anything about Stefan and all the things that had just happened. Also, he wasn’t sure if Maria Fernanda knew the truth that Adamaris had confessed to him. Elijah did have no idea about that. How come Eliza and Isela could be sisters? In which moment all of that happened? No one involved there had the strength to accept that truth. Was it possible that Mr. de la Fuente knew that all along and was the reason why he helped with the revenge against Stefan? Mr. de la Fuente was also a bad person who used Maria Fernanda.Suddenly, the voice of Adamaris called his attention. He raised his head, and there she was. But she wasn’t alone. Elijah had been clear enough when he said he wanted Adamaris there alone because Mr. de la Fuente couldn’t know anything.“Adamaris! What did-““Where’s my daughter?” Mr. de la Fue

By the time Enrique arrived at the amusement park with Isela, she was already awake. She was no longer afraid of him, she knew how he acted and what he was capable of, that was the reason that being with him was the same as being in hell, where she’d lived for the last 6 years.The bandages around her wrists were all stained with blood, she was bleeding out and didn’t care. Enrique had brought her there just for one reason: it was time to end with what he started but never had the time to finish. Isela was that woman who was going to open any door to the world of power. Enrique needed her in every aspect of his life, and Isela needed to end her revenge. It was a win-win, right?“Leave me alone!” She cried out, releasing of his grab.Enrique smiled. There was no place to run. The amusement park was just for the two of them because Stefan had made him the favor to rent that place for whatever special occasion.“Dear Isela, my love, how long has it been since we shared a room? I still r
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 60
Going crazy due to the information his friend had given him about Maria Fernanda, Stefan just knew one thing: he had to find out where she was. Maria Fernanda couldn’t have just faded like that. But the most important, why was she going behind him? It was like someone had abducted her, and had prevented her from being with Stefan. Many things started to flow in his mind.The car continued running through the highway that was going to lead him to where her car was. Stefan’s people were already there together with police.Finally, his car stopped as soon as he saw many people gathered around the car.“Hey, Mr. de la Barrera?” The officer asked.“Yes, I am.”“Glad to meet you.” The man tried to be respectful towards him. He had heard many stories about the great Stefan de la Barrera when all Stefan wanted was to know what they’d found until now. “I’m officer Gonzalez.”“Yes, glad to meet you too. Where is she?” “Ammm, we’re still investigating, but the scene, the way the car is parked i

An old man with glasses and hair almost completely white arrived at the old hospital of the town with a woman in his arms. He was scared, he was afraid that the woman in his arms was already dead.“Help! Please, help!” The man cried out.Nurses and doctors turned around in sync. In front of them there was a man with his gray sweater already stained with blood. The woman in his arms was completely unconscious. Doctors and nurses went directly to him while another nurse approached with a gurney.“What happened?” A doctor received her.“It was a mistake! I swear it was a mistake! I didn’t see her crossing the… the… I’m sorry!” The man felt really guilty. He was already crying.“Okay, please, contact her family.” One of the nurses asked while Maria Fernanda was taken with them, who were already assisting her with oxygen and intravenous drip.The man sat down on one of the old benches with his head falling through his legs. He was so pitiful. He felt so bad. It was his intention. Of course
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 58
With her heart broken, tears in her eyes and thinking everything was a lie: Elijah had used her just to satisfy his own revenge because Eliza ended up being his cousin. Maria Fernanda just wanted to end it. She wanted to end what she had started just by her thoughts, thoughts that came true. Everyone had lied to her. Elijah and her grandfather had lied to her. How come? She was supposed to be his granddaughter, the only person he had in his life. So, Stefan and she were just victims?Running through the avenue, without caring about the sound of the cars, Maria Fernanda crossed, looking for a taxi that could take her to where her grandfather was. On her way, she tried to contact Adamaris, but nothing. She didn’t pick up her calls. Maria Fernanda was suffering. That reminded her when she was told that if she wanted to get revenge, she should dig two graves, but never thought the first grave was going to be for herself, so it was her decision to drag Stefan to the second grave or let him
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 57
Suddenly, Maria Fernanda felt a little weak, the story Alona was telling her was so much for her. Even she could feel the pain of Alona.“Miss., do you feel okay?” Alona asked.“Yeah, yeah, please, go on.”Alona looked at her and then Alona continued her story. “I felt like something was strange. Antonio had never been that kind of man, he knew I couldn’t get worried because of our baby, he was aware of that, but suddenly, he forgot it. I tried to contact him until the ring door rang. Two men in gray suits were standing right there, they gave me the name of Antonio, his whole name, they told me Antonio had to go to another country because of the trail, the celebration of some trial, I still don’t understand. They said he tried to contact me but his cell phone didn’t work. I know, I know it sounds strange, but I didn’t care about that. I was afraid that Antonio wasn’t okay. I decided to travel since the trial of the person Antonio was standing up for was going to take some time. It was
