Chapter 48
CHLOE’S POV
“Where are you going again, Mateo?”
“You don’t care!”
I fell silent because I didn’t want to ask any more questions that might hurt me.
“We need you here! The election is coming soon!”
He glared at me and pointed at my head. “I don’t care whether Dad wins or not!”
“Come on, Mateo!”
He ignored me and just went down the stairs. He seemed rushing. I looked at my watch and grabbed the keys to my car because I was going to follow him, maybe because of Ana again, why he was rushing.
I bit my lip as I followed Mateo’s car and wondered why he was going to the falls. Damn. Perhaps he’s with another girl again?
He parked the car, so I stopped mine not far away. I got out of the car and took heavy steps to make sure that girl knew she could fight for Mateo.
When I reached the falls, I could hear the water flowing.
“Ana! Sorry, I’m late!”
Ana? My eyes widened when I saw Ana in a two-piece bathing suit bathing in the falls. I stepped back a bit behind the bushes so they wouldn’t know I had followed Mateo.
“Come and join me!”
I clenched my fist as I watched Mateo take off his shirt and pants eagerly.
He waded into the water, and my eyes widened as Ana giggled and embraced him.
“Ana…!” I glared as I watched them frolic in the water. “I will kill you, b*tch!”
I trembled with anger, especially as I saw them kissing and Mateo kissing her neck and chest. I covered my ears and closed my eyes as I heard Ana’s loud moans.
“Ah! Mateo! Ohhh!”
I opened my eyes in shock as I saw Ana grinning while looking in my direction. She knows I’m here! She did it on purpose!
“OHHHH MATEO! F*CK! DAMN! GOOD!” she screamed loudly as Mateo licked her chest.
“Fuck you, Ana.” I whispered as I took out my phone to record them.
I’ll use this to embarrass her and send it to Martin so he knows what a wh*re his girlfriend is.
I caught Ana’s looking at me as she kissed Mateo, but Ana just grinned and held on to Mateo’s shoulder.
My hand was almost bruised from clenching it tightly because I knew Ana was doing it on purpose. I will kill you, Ana! I will kill you—
I was stunned when someone suddenly hit me from behind, causing me to lose consciousness.
“Mateo!” I woke up and realized I was already in a car.
I touched my neck because I knew someone had hit me. Damn. I shook
my head and noticed that Mateo’s car was gone too because I was also late.
I started my car and drove home to the mansion.
When I arrived home, I immediately looked for Mateo and was shocked to see him carrying our child. I quickly approached him and took our child from him.
“What kind of drama is this again, Chloe?” he asked irritably, trying to take our child back, but I didn’t let him.
“You have no right to hold our child! You’re disgusting! I saw you with Ana! You had sex with her!” I shouted. He was stunned, but instead of feeling ashamed, he got even angrier.
“You followed me? Why did you follow me?”
“I wanted to know where you were going again! You’re always not here in the mansion—SLAP!”
My eyes widened, and I touched my cheek as he slapped me again, but he wasn’t done yet because he tightly held my cheek.
“You have no right to do that! Do you understand?!”
I didn’t respond, but he tightened his grip, causing me to wince.
“Do you understand?!”
I pushed his hand away in frustration. “She’s not your wife anymore! Can’t you see she’s playing us? She’s not the Ana you used to know! Don’t be foolish, Mateo!” I shouted at him so he would realize that Ana was just manipulating us.
“Shut up! Shut the fuck up!” he yelled, pointing a finger at me.
“What’s happening here?”
We both stopped as Mateo’s parents arrived.
“Are you fighting again? And in front of your child?”
I took a deep breath and lowered my child, who immediately ran to his grandma.
“I saw Mateo with Ana, and worst of all, he had sex with her! I have proof!” I confidently said, taking out my phone and going to the gallery, but I cursed loudly when I noticed the video was gone. “No, no, no, it was here!” I searched the trash bin but couldn’t find it. “Fuck! It can’t be gone!” I bit my nails in frustration because I couldn’t find the video.
“Chloe?”
I looked up and noticed Mateo looking completely relaxed.
“I have proof, I swear! I don’t know who tampered with my phone, but I recorded them!” I panicked.
“Take a rest, Chloe. You haven’t had proper sleep,” Mama Caridad said, but I just shook my head and kept searching, but it was nowhere to be found. Damn.
I threw my phone in frustration, shocking everyone around me. I approached Mateo and shook him. “She’s trying to ruin us, Mateo! Can’t you see that?!” He removed my hand from his arm.
“She can’t ruin anything because we’re not together, Chloe. We’re only married on paper. Just wait for the divorce papers and sign them right away because I don’t want Ana to get hurt when she finds out we're still married,” he said, leaving us all stunned by his words.
“No! I won’t sign! We’re not getting divorced, Mateo!” I shouted. He raised an eyebrow at me.
“It's up to you. But I will find a way to dissolve our marriage,” he said before leaving again.
I fell to my knees in shock. This can’t happen! I can’t divorce Mateo! I’ll kill Ana! I’ll kill her again!
***
I smirked as I saw Mateo leave the mansion. I overheard the workers talking about Mateo planning to divorce his wife.
- FLASHBACK -
“Can you divorce her?” I asked him as I dressed up. He turned to me and stroked my hair.
“I can. I’ll do everything to dissolve our marriage,” he said and kissed me on the forehead.
“What if she doesn’t sign? I don’t want to be your mistress, Mateo. I’m your first wife, but I’ll end up being the mistress.” I retorted. He chuckled and kissed me on the lips.
“She’ll sign whether she likes it or not. If not, I’ll find a way to dissolve the marriage,” he said and pulled me into a hug. “You’re the only wife I have, Ana, no one else.”
I smirked while he was hugging me.
- END OF FLASHBACK -
I can’t wait for what Chloe will do next. I’m sure she’s cursing me after seeing the two of us.
Nothing happened between me and Mateo. It was all just a show to further enrage Chloe. I also know she was trying to record us, but because she's foolish, I still managed to outsmart her.
Yes, I signaled to Alexis to make Chloe unconscious and delete the video she had. He also deleted in the trash bin to make Chloe even angrier. After doing that, he carried Chloe to her car and left her there until she woke up.
I followed her home to the mansion and just listened to the workers saying that Mateo and Chloe were arguing again.
I smirked, closed the window, and signaled to Alexis to go back to the hacienda.
When I got home, I immediately FaceTimed Martin.
“Did you just finish shower?”
He nodded, and it seemed like he propped his phone on a stand.
(“You just finished your plan, right?”)
This man has a strong sense! TSK.
“I changed the plan. Nothing happened, but I’m sure Chloe is furious right now. If I hadn't intervened, she might have already sent you the video she took of us,”
“Oh, you’re sure? If I find out—”
I showed him my chest with no trace of mark.
“See? Just a kissing scene, Martin, nothing else.” I rolled my eyes at him because he's still on my mind.
“He fucking kissed you? I will kill him!”
“Martin! Even a kiss? That was the last time! You know my plan!”
(“Did I agree to your plan?”)
I scratched my head because he’s also a fool. He also had sex with Chloe before.
“Wow. I’m ashamed of you, Martin. You had sex with Chloe before!” I said in annoyance. He glared at me, so I grinned. “That was your plan, right?”
(“Tsk.”)
“Look at you! You’re still guilty! With us, it was just a kiss!”
(“Ana!”)
“You’re so annoying to talk to! I’ll tell you.”
(“I’m going home tomorrow. You’re planning something for the party again,”)
I paused because he really knows me.
“Yes, and they will all be embarrassed by what I’m going to do.”
“But be careful. Levi is still cunning.”
I just nodded and chatted briefly with Martin before I showered again. I just wanted to get rid of the germs from Mateo. If I used to be eager, now I’m disgusted.
I’m no longer Ana Bernardino who loves him dearly because I am now Ana Mystica who harbors deeper anger towards them.
You will kneel before me to ask for my help. I can’t wait for that to happen.
