M.I N.E endless Love

That was the last stroke that broke the Camel’s back. Rodrigo started breathing hard. He couldn’t control his emotions anymore and when he screamed , he least expected that his voice could be so loud.

“Camilla!!!!” He bellowed and without restraint, for the first time in his adult life, tears were in Rodrigo’s eyes. He took his phone and smashed it on the wall and Joel didn’t stop him nor told him to calm down.

He didn’t see the video but he obviously heard all that Camilla said through the video. His eyes had gone red as well.

Mirabel as well as the few employees working on the top floor heard Rodrigo’s voice. But while others couldn’t do anything beyond placing their hands on their chest, she stood up and wanted to find out what happened.

She hurriedly came over and saw Rodrigo in tears, his expensive phone smashed on the floor and her brother digging his hand into his hair as if going to pull them off.

“I am sorry Camilla!!” Rodrigo stuttered, repeating those words over and over. He was sobbing and Mirabel was shocked, her body shivered in cold as she saw Rodrigo’s tears.

He is her brother but this was the first time sgexsaw his tears. Even when their father died, he didn’t shed a single tear.

In City B, Camilla was taking her medicine and her mother was sitting by her side. She suddenly heard Rodrigo’s voice in her head calling her name in pain.

“Rodrigo!!” Camilla uttered in shock and held her head. She kept hearing echoes of his voice and it appeared he was in pain or something.

“What!!, What is it Camilla? Who’s Rodrigo?” Susan asked. She was surprised by the sudden action of her daughter. How can she just call a name and held her head

She stood up and walked over to her quickly, holding her into an embrace as Camilla shut her eyes, still holding her head.

“Are you alright? Do I call the doctor?” Susan asked, picking up her phone and was going to call when Camilla opened her eyes.

“I’m fine. I only felt he called my name” Camilla said simply and took her supplement, gulped it down with water and looked at the puzzled face of her mother.

“Nothing mum. I’m fine. I heard Rodrigo calling my name and I felt he was in some kind of pain or gone emotional”

“Who’s Rodrigo!” Susan asked. For her to hear that fellow’s voice in her head means she had a special bonding with him.

“My boyfriend. Sorry I mean my ex and the father of my unborn baby” Camilla answered flippantly. But in her heart, there was nothing flippant there but heartbreak.

Susan nodded, no wonder. The bond was there. It’s the baby, containing both its parents Gene and dwelling inside one of the parents.

“You loved each other right?” Susan asked and Camilla’s countenance became moody. She knows she loved him but she can’t say he really loved her.

“I used to love him, mum. But now, I can’t say so anymore. But him, I doubt if he ever loved me. He must have deceived me to think he loves me….” Camilla answered.

In City A, Mirabel glanced at Joel and saw him close his eyes. He was feeling heartbroken. What happened? Had they heard Camilla was dead or something?

“Please, please Camilla forgive me. I am sorry” Rodrigo was saying constantly. He was covered in sweat and he pulled off his suit, his ties and his shirt was the only upper wear he had on.

“I tried to make you rethink. To salvage the whole situation because of the love you had for her. But you wouldn’t listen to me.

Rather you threatened to have me fired. You soon forget the times you had together, the love you shared and the future you both dreamt about.

You said horrible words at her knowing full well that you had her first time and you had to do it by raping her. Yet, you said she was a whore.

Yes, she was indeed a whore but on your bed alone. She’s your private whore and I expect that the public doesn’t have to know about that.

She sacrificed so much for you and for the interest of this company. Yet you watched her sent to jail and even made a restraint, preventing her loved ones from seeing her.

You molested her family, let your bitch fiance slapped her mother, tortured her brother to coma and made her suffer while in jail.

What about the demolition of her home and her mother’s business. You rendered her family homeless and destitute. You showed the power that wealth brings without thinking twice in your actions.

You got engaged to Emma her rival in love and kissed her, sending the pictures to her as a means of torture. You were satisfied that she sobbed and cried.

Now you asked her to forgive you? To which of the offences do you seek forgiveness? The one you sinned against her or her family or perhaps against your own blood and flesh in her belly.

Which one Rodrigo? Tell me. Now, how can you find her, to undo or plead with her. Is she still alive or dead, you don’t know and no one does.

I don’t know what you can do. But I am free from the guilt Rodrigo. I am innocent because I never believed a single thing Said about her or for which she is accused…”Joel rebuked him.

His words were like sharp daggers, piercing into the heart of Rodrigo. It caused him to bleed more in his brokenness and he seemed as if to ripe his flesh off.

His tears were flowing like that of a woman. Joel was right. He was right. Where was he going to start from? He had done too much harm than can be forgiven.

He had murdered love. He doesn’t know if he would ever set his eyes on his woman again even if it’s just for a minute and tell her sorry.

Mirabel couldn’t help it. She can’t stand and watch her brother become like this. This was too much for him to bear. He needs someone to bear his burdens for him.

For Rodrigo to become like this, it means he cannot control himself anymore. She started sobbing and came to sit beside him.

Pulling him into an embrace, she tried to console him “You need to calm down so that you can think rationally. None of your tears can undo what has been done.

But you have a chance to repair what has been damaged to your best abilities. Let’s put our heads together and find solutions and answers…”she consoled him.

Then her eyes rested on the brown envelope. She was dazed. The computer gadget was on the sofa beside Rodrigo and saw that he just watched a video.

What is the relationship between the envelope and the video that her brother might have probably watched to have become like this.

She went over and pressed play and the video started again. Seeing that Camilla was dressed like she was when she was apprehended in the video, she became more serious.

Felix Freeman sighed audibly when Jared left his office. He can’t imagine that Jared had suddenly become a superior to him in hierarchy.

He was working directly with Justin Swaras, the son of the prime minister. Some referred to him as President but he was best to be called a prime minister by the rule of their country.

The embassy entirely was under the control of Justin Swaras and he made Jared his representative. They all have to answer to him through Jared.

He wondered how the Dickson’s got favoured so highly to be close to the family of the first citizen of the country. Could it be after all that has happened to Camilla, her family was to be compensated like this?

Even at that, it wouldn’t be such a high class position. Jared has suddenly become aman in his outlook and he commanded respect invis words.

His dressing was always identical to Justin Swaras and such clothes were specially made and also very expensive.

He had followed through the whole incident that happened to Camilla. Finally the truth prevailed and his dear Camilla was vindicated.

But the truth should have been discovered long before it was. At least perhaps her life would have been saved. She’s dead or something terrible has happened to her.

Somehow, he hadn’t stopped regretting what he had done to her. Perhaps all tethered down to him jilting her. If hexwas true and faithful to her, perhaps she would never have gotten involved with Rodrigo.

Maybe she wouldn’t have worked so close to him to have been accused of stealing the company’s documents.

He wished she would forgive him as well for what he did to her. Now, her family had become rich and her brother had even become a boss to him.

His baby was a few months old already and he wished that someday he would talk with Jared and asked for his forgiveness in place of Camilla.

When Mirabel was through watching the video, she now understands that the documents they seek were well protected by Camilla.

She even said she would rather die than see Rodrigo get hurt. That’s how much she loved him. But her brother treated her badly and didn’t really trust in her love.

No wonder he was almost ripping himself apart. No wonder he kept asking her to forgive him despite the fact that she doesn’t see or hear him.

At this time, Rodrigo was a bit calm and sat holding his head in between his palm. He was quiet but he was moody and this phase of moodiness will take longer to clear off than the first phase before he travelled out.

Joel was going to leave when Rodrigo called him back. He turned and glanced back at his boss. He was down but he was also unhappy at how Camilla suffered because she loved people closest to herself.

“I need to see Sara and Jared today,”he said and was quiet. After some seconds passed he added “for the first time since you have been with me, I regretted not listening to you. I am sorry Joel” Rodrigo said.

Joel opened his eyes wide and closed them again. He pinched himself to be sure he was not daydreaming. Rodrigo said sorry to him?

Where is his ego? He had lost it already? That’s a great turnaround and the beginning of better days ahead.

“I’m afraid that is going to be difficult. They have relocated and are no longer leaving where I provided for them” Joel replied.

He also just knew recently that Jared had gotten a better job. He now works with the prime Minister’s son. They also live in a big Mansion now.

“I just needed to see them today. Make it happen” Rodrigo didn’t say anything else. He stood up and said he wanted to be alone.

Temisa Davis had returned to her home. A home she once shared with her husband and daughter. But this time, her husband was no more but she’s happy that her daughter was married to a good man.

Eduardo suggested that she come and live with them so that she doesn’t have to live alone but she refused. She claimed that the house holds the memories of her late husband.

That memory is what she has left and she intends to cherish those memories for the rest of her life. Since she refused to come along, Eduardo asked that she employ people who will keep her company always.

As for Betty, she was sent out. Temisa had said maybe she should stay but Jenny insisted that she leave. She can’t allow such a person to live in the house with her mother.

She could wake up one morning and strangle her mother or better still, poison her to death. She should return to her parents’ narrow apartment from where they moved to their place.

During the period of interrogation, Patrick Davis and his wife confessed that they couldn’t hide anymore. There was practically no place of hiding when the doctor confessed to his crime.

And Temisa was there as well to testify the last encounter she and her husband had before the accident.

Finally they confessed and the main reason why they did what they did was because of envy. Temisa and her husband were wealthy already and their daughter was the eldest.

If Jenny gets married to the eldest master of Anderson’s family, they become more influential and get more business opportunities and connections.

Hence they wanted to take that place and be in charge of their wealth and properties. Temisa was supposed to have died in that accident but somehow fate made her escape death.

Hence they made her hospitalised. That way, they will be in charge and get their daughter married to Eduardo. Then Temisa might wake up or remain a vegetable forever, they cared less about that.

But When Eduardo had an accident and became cripple, their hopes were dashed. When it was rumoured that he was impotent, their daughter Betty cried and said she doesn’t want to be married to him anymore.

They were charged with murder and for paying the doctor to inject Temisa with toxins. They were sentenced to life imprisonment.

That evening, Rodrigo and Joel set out to locate where Sara and Jared lived. When they arrived at the beautiful Mansion where the Dickson’s lived, Joel refused to believe they lived in such a sophisticated house.

Rodrigo just looks on in silence. He doesn’t know how they come about dwelling on that house but he doesn’t concern himself with that.

They rang the bell and waited. Soon the door was open and before them stood Sara. She eyed Rodrigo and looked at him from the top of his head, down to his feet and sneered.

“Hello Ms Sara” Joel spoke first. He knew from the way this woman before them eyed Rodrigo she would spat on him if they were not being careful.

Sara just ignored Joel’s greetings and seemed not to hear him. Her eyes fastened on Rodrigo and the latter wouldn’t raise his head, guilt was eating him up.

“I have come to apologise…”Rodrigo started when Sara shut him up. She wouldn’t even let them into the Mansion but allowed them to stand outside.

“Come to where to apologise? You really have got the guts to Walk here to say such words. I don’t have anything to say or want to hear from you except you present my daughter to me whichever way you can.

Please, don’t come here again. You have no idea how much we detest you. We don’t want you anywhere around us and besides, if you have the intention of demolishing this place like you did the previous, you will never be able to do it this time.

Go and meet that fiancee of yours who is good at slapping the face of people who are as old as her mother. Please leave us alone and let us live in peace” Sara bellowed and before Joel or Rodrigo would think of giving her a response, she shut the door on their faces and went away.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Joel stood and stared at the closed door speechless. Sara really did that? But she’s a good person not to have insulted or say horrible words at Rodrigo for all he’s done to her and to her kids.

Rodrigo just stood and stared at the closed door and seemed to be thinking of something. But soon, he turned around and walked away.

Joel saw him leave and sighed softly. He followed him as he saw the look of helplessness on Rodrigo’s face.

As they drove towards Rodrigo’s Mansion, he looked weak like someone who had suffered a sudden disappointment. He was quiet all along.

“Arrange for a meeting between Jared and I and let me know when and where” Rodrigo said simply, his voice was void of that harshness and authority.

Joel said alright. He was to arrange but what Rodrigo will receive from Jared will be more unwelcoming than how Sara has treated them.

In City B, that evening, Luke was at the airport to pick Katie. She’s been his friend and later turned out to be his fiancee. She was through with her studies and now returned home to her family.

When Luke saw her, he was excited and ran to meet her but he was surprised at what he saw next.
