UNDER THAT CONTRACT CHAPTER 54
With his hands together relying on the desk, and across him it was Edmund, Ace had his head down. He didn’t want to say anything else, and Edmund seemed to pressure him to say what he wanted to hear.“Look! All I want is to understand the whole story.”“Why? Why now? Eliza died years ago. It was an accident. Those robbers didn’t measure the consequences of their acts and happened to kill her.”“It was an accident? How do you know that?”Ace sighed. It was obvious that Edmund was putting him under so much pressure for him to say what Edmund and, surely, Diego, wanted to hear in order to find someone who could pay for the death of that woman once Diego realized that for the second time the woman he loved was never going to be his.“You know what? I don’t want to continue with this shit. You want to say things that I don’t know. You want to find a guilty one because of Diego’s remorse. The man can’t overcome the fact the love of his life is no longer with us. Years had gone by since Eliz

In the house of Cameron and Ace, Susan kept looking for the combination to open the safe. It had been hours and Cameron nor Ace had arrived. Maybe, they were just having fun in the night of his proposal. Thousands of little papers with numbers written were covering the floor. Susan had noted the different combinations she’d been tried until that moment. When a special date came to her mind together with the memory. “The password is 12042004.” Ace informed Susan once she asked him the password to log in his work email. “What with that password? I thought you met Cameron last year.” “How do you know it’s a date?” “Well… maybe because I know you pretty well that I’m able to describe you as the kinda person who just uses dates when it comes to fix a password. Tell me, what about this one?” Ace sighed while his look got lost into nothingness. “Maybe, it’s one of the most important dates I’ll ever going to remember. Someone special came to my life, but couldn’t stay. It was the best

Knowing her son wasn’t the kinda man who drowned his problems in alcohol like Diego was doing exactly at that moment, Renata stayed with her. She cried over him while putting his head on her lap. She hadn’t been the best mother on earth, but wanted to make her son up. Was it so bad? She also deserved a second chance, right?“My son,” Renata claimed, passing her fingers through his hair. Diego was still sleeping. “There are so much I’d like to tell you right now. There’s so much you need to listen. Maybe, just the words you always wanted to hear from me. I know I haven’t been the mother you’d like to see in me. I know that all I’ve done is being a pain in the ass. I know I haven’t been the mother you needed since the first moment you were born. I… I… I just don’t know how to excuse myself for all what I’ve done.” Tears fell down on Diego’s face. “I’ve never seen you drunk, as drunk as this. You may feel that pain you’re feeling is going beyond you, but, my love, I’m here, I’ve always b

“Why didn’t you tell me anything?” Susan wanted to know. “Why, Ace? I always trusted you.”Hearing through the call the need she had to see him, Ace accepted that meetup at the café where they used to go before. Then, he was going to prepare everything before his flight with the woman if his life and the little son that even if he wasn’t biologically theirs, Ace and Cameron learned to love him as he was.Ace smiled mockingly. He really didn’t care about what Susan could be thinking of him, or even feeling. But, what he didn’t know was that Susan could act on him whenever she wanted, and maybe at that moment Susan was giving him his last chance to do things right.“What? What is so funny for you? Tell me because I don’t understand!”“Susan, if we can’t talk like two civilized people do, I think we leave this as it is.” Ace tried to get up, but Susan was faster to take his hands and make him seat down.“Hold on! You won’t go to anywhere until you answer me what I’m asking you.”“Look, S

Going back and forth playing with her hands in a nervous manner, Renata couldn’t think straight. She just waited for the phone of the house to ring to know that everything had gone as she had planned. If they failed this one she could be sure that Camilla would know Renata knew about her real identity. If Renata really wanted to take Camilla out of the way and show to people who she really was, everything had to go as she planned. Regrettable, Diego wasn’t there with her. She feared her son could be in trouble now. But, what was that Camilla had done for being like that?Well, after Renata over heard the conversation Camilla had with her lover, she let her son about the plan she had. Camilla and her lover were going to send the merchandise in the name of the company. So, if the police were able to act on them that night, everything was going to take its place. Cameron and Diego could be together. Now, what Renata wanted the most was the happiness of her son and his wellness. Sonner or

Dressing all in black, making nervous sounds with her nails against the table, Camilla was all impatient to see her sister get in, but in had been more than 10 minutes and the woman still didn’t appear. She needed to appear. She needed to help her. She needed to come up with something and help her sister, otherwise Camilla was going to take actions and Cameron wouldn’t like that. Camilla was decided to take everything at once and snatch from her sister the only one in her heart, and wasn’t talking about Diego.Suddenly, with her chest going up and down, Cameron got into the cheapest café where Camilla was waiting for her. And there she was, her twin sister at one of the furthest tables.“Camilla?” Cameron asked her not being sure if it was her sister since she hadn’t seen her dressed with black jeans and a cap.“Where the hell were you, damn stupid?! I’ve been waiting for you for over 20 minutes!” Camilla forced her to seat down across her.Cameron felt intimidated by her look, so she

So, it wasn’t a game? She wasn’t playing at all? It seemed like she was never going to trust him. What else did she need to understand how guilty Diego felt for what he did to her years ago? Now, the one who seemed to be playing with his feelings was her. One night she appeared in the hotel where he had asked her to be, Diego had confessed her his feelings and she allowed him to love every single part of her body and the next day, they were there like two strangers with nothing in common aside from the possibility of Diego getting out of there as long as he didn’t say anything against Camilla. Cameron had to be going crazy. There was no way Cameron could take her sister’s side after all the shit she had made her go through.Getting up from her seat, Cameron looked at him for the last time. “Good luck, Diego Ferrer. I really wish you well.” And walked off before the tears could run down and Diego noticed the truth behind those words.After all, they weren’t destined. Everything had sta

What made him think that she was going to help him get the hell out of here? Camilla had been clear enough when she said Bastian was no longer in her interests. She had put the eye on another man. Someone who was more interesting, more powerful or of course, more handsome. For Camilla, all those years, Bastian was her happy moment after having fought with Diego. He was her little break, her better than nothing, but eventually, even that little break he was for her ends up bothering more than the fights she could have with Diego.

UNDER THAT CONTRACT EPILOGUE
With her look clouded, Cameron and Renata were accompanied by each other, feeling the same pain. By that moment Renata knew the boy was her sister’s son, but it was Cameron the one who loved him as his own mother. The same went for Tita. They didn’t care if Tita was adopted or not, Tita was their baby. And very soon, Cameron’s baby as well.Around ten cars, counting patrols where Ace and Diego were travelling, they arrived to one of the loneliest forests. Ace had indicated them to drive there. He knew Camilla was going to take the kids there, since he’d talked to her some minutes ago like he agreed on the plan. The truth was police was with them. Ace was going to confess everything.When they found Camilla, she was with the two kids crying and screaming at the edge of a cliff. Tita and Gadriel were tied up. Police were there.“Please, Camilla, give me the kids. You can’t do this to them. You were the mother of two. Please, we can start over. Give me the kids!” Cameron begged on her kn

With tears in her eyes, Cameron begged for Susan to have mercy on her. It was pointless to still saying that she had nothing to do with that when it was clear that it was her handwriting that had been printed on those little pieces of paper.The following day after the wedding that didn’t take place in reality, all Cameron did was look for Susan until the next day she found her. And now they were, Cameron running behind her over the hallways, trying to talk her in the declaration against Ace if he was guilty of course. If police didn’t find anything against Ace, Diego was going to carry the heaviness of another five years for faking information. Cameron wanted to save him. Cameron wanted to be justice, the justice that didn’t reach Eliza earlier.“If you know something, you should say it!” Cameron said.Susan turned around. There was way she could declare against Ace. Ace had been a real friend to her, if Susa did that it was going to be like betraying who did his best for her; like a

“Ace was fated to be with Eliza, but I was the one who came into their way. Ace and Eliza were the real protagonists of this story.” Diego started saying. “I fell for her just by silly conversations one day that Ace asked me to take care of his chat since he’d already had a fight with his soon to be wife, at least that was how he wanted it to happen. It was my mistake. I made her fall for me and when we met, I already knew she was going to come to me since I’d told her Ace was the real intruder, the friend of mine who was doing that favor of talking to her while I couldn’t. I changed the roles, Cameron. I married Eliza and wanted to make up to him, so I decided it’d be a good idea if he became one of the major shareholders until he could make his company one of the biggest not far from mine. Cameron, I wanted your family to take responsibility for that and your grandfather never knew that.”The more Diego said, the harder he was hitting in her heart. Tears came down. Cameron denied co

“I don’t know. This just makes me think that he was killed because he had some information he could use against the criminals and that’s why they did this. They wanted him to shut up. His judgmental was going to be today.” Explained the man, colleague of Edmund in that field. “Who could have done this?” Edmund continued. “It could have been anyone. You know that the man was in some dirty business, right?” “Yes, I knew it , but I don’t think they could have done something like this.” “You know how that people could be. Even if you owe him a single buck that can be paid with your life.” Edmund sat down across his friend. “Something here isn’t okay.” “Of course; delinquency.” “No, I’m not saying so. What I’m saying is that we should find out who was the killer here.” “Come on, Edmund! That’s not easy! They’re all criminals. We can’t just simply…” “What are you trying to say? Just because they’re already criminals you’re going to let this be? Come on! I thought a little more capab

Radiant lights in a sky that only seemed to be made for her in that important day where Cameron was decided to let everything go, basically the Ferrer family. The sun rays could not shine any brighter for her as it was the happiest day of her life. Finally, after so much, having traveled that path of roses and thorns, dawn was breaking. Strong and clear rays of light. At least, that was Cameron wanted to think. She had to know this time she was marrying because she wanted to, not because someone was forcing her to do it. In a moment like that Cameron needed of her family, but sooner she realized her family was reduced to Camilla. This time her grandfather wasn’t going to take her to the altar where the only one should be waiting for her. They were going to be a happy family, that was all she wanted to think.“You look beautiful, Miss Cameron! “said one of the women who served her for that day.The white dress together with the veil fell like a beautiful white wave over her. The day of

When Bastian came back to his cell, he couldn’t help but feel like a relief in his heart after what he’d said to Cameron. Of course he would have liked she had understood what he tried to say, but there was a hunch in his heart that was telling him she just needed some time to think about it and see he was right. Cameron didn’t need to marry Ace when he was giving her the proof they needed to make Camilla get back to her place and Diego also have with he always loved by his side.In front of the cell where Bastian was, the other man who Camilla had talked with started studying him. The man needed to watch every single of his steps if he really wanted to get many things from the woman he’d just met.“Is that him?” One of his men asked him.The man looked firmly at Bastian. “Yes, he is. He’s identical to the photo the woman showed me.”“What do we do now?”“We need time. We need to watch his steps and watch out ours. No one can see us.”The other man beside him giggled. “It’s not like p

Running behind him for more than five streets, Edmund finally got Diego. The man was acting without thinking. All those things going on in his life were driving him wild. When Cameron had said she was going to become his karma, she wasn’t just talking.“Hold on… Diego… Hold on!” Edmund stopped him. His chest going up and down showed how much he’d run.“I can’t let this happen.”“You’re acting wild. You don’t know what’s wrong and what’s right now. You just see what you want to see. Diego, you’re not the hero of the story. Don’t pretend who you can’t be when you don’t even know what to do with your own problems.”“Thank you, Edmund.”It’s hard for people to realize the world isn’t what we want it to be with a single act. It’s even harder to realize we’re not the heroes of our stories.“The saying says if you want to help others, first help yourself. Cameron deserves to be happy after all the things she went through with you.”“Why does everyone think I’m her wrong?! Why does everyone t
