S2-Chapter 144

Author: Maria Anita
Samantha’s POV

I had been very careful since Flavian informed me that Romulus was free. I went straight from home to work and from work to home, not even leaving the office for lunch. Manu had become my constant companion, having lunch with me every day, along with Rick, who had been sighing around the corners since Tess went away.

On Wednesday, Henry’s mother invited me to lunch. I met her and Alvaro at a restaurant near the office. They made a beautiful couple. Alvaro showered her with attention and care.

"You two know you're perfect together, right?!" I said as I approached.

"You think so, Sam?" Heidi asked anxiously.

"It's not just what I think, you are perfect together." I smiled and greeted her with a small kiss on the cheek.

"I agree with you, Samantha!" Alvaro said while greeting me.

"And how's my little grandchild?" Heidi asked after we sat down.

"Making me hungrier than ever. Heidi, nothing satisfies me, I'm hungry all the time!" I expressed my surprise about it.

"I felt the

    Samantha’s POVI ended up asking Erica and Emilia, Edward's sisters, if one of them could be Rick's partner as my wedding bridesmaid since Tess couldn't make it.Those two were quite a pair - they started arguing and decided to settle it with a game of odds or evens, which was hilarious. In the end, Emilia came out victorious, but Erica quickly warned her not to get too excited because she wouldn't let her hog the hottie alone at the party. Rick would have his hands full, but it would be good for him to have some distraction.Since we had the dress fitting at the boutique on Friday, both sisters came along and kept everyone entertained."Girl, I love this boutique!" Emilia exclaimed as soon as they arrived. "Listen, since I'm one of your bridesmaids, we're going to throw you the most amazing bachelorette party ever."I got chills just thinking about what this crazy girl would get me into, but it would surely be fun."Oh no, Emilia, you're organizing her bachelorette party?"

    Henry’s POVI took Samantha's phone and looked at her, seeing how frightened she was. I answered without saying anything but put it on speaker. Soon, a voice echoed through the room."Samanthaaa! Woohoo! Guess who?" A bizarre loud laugh followed. "Little Samantha, won't you talk to me? Are you that emotional?""How did you get my number, Romulus?" Samantha tried to control her nervousness."Oh! Don't you know?" He laughed again. "That annoying Manuela gave me your number.""Was it you? You stupid jerk!" Samantha snapped."Yeah, I borrowed her phone today." He spoke cynically. "Too bad my employee couldn't stick the knife in her like I ordered.""You're a monster, Romulus." Samantha struggled not to cry."Little Samantha, this is just to remind you that there's no point in trying to run from me. You're mine, Samantha! And I'll get you back." Romulus's voice was loaded with anger."You're crazy!" Samantha was starting to lose control."Crazy about you, little Samantha! Today was just a w

    Henry’s POVI was very frustrated that I hadn't yet solved the problem that Reynold represented, nor the issue with Romulus, who wouldn't leave Sam alone. I sat there in the police station looking defeated. Detective Bonfim sat next to me with an expression of sympathy for my misfortune. He had news, which gave me a glimmer of hope."What's the news, Bonfim?" Flavian asked, starting to perk up."Well, let's start with the officers who are watching Romulus. He hasn't left the building since he got out of jail. As you already know, we discovered he's staying in the apartment of the woman who visited him while he was in prison, definitely a mistress," While Bonfim was speaking, I remembered the store box from where Sam worked - it could be her."What's this woman's name, Bonfim? He had a mistress at the store where Sam worked," I explained."Yes, we interrogated that girl, Cybele, if I'm not mistaken," Bonfim closed his eyes, remembering. "She visited him a few times in jail, but he broke

    Henry’s POVFrom the police station, I went straight to Samantha's workplace. I planned to take her to lunch and tell her everything that was happening. When I arrived, Patrick was at Samantha's desk, cracking jokes as usual."Is your company going bankrupt, Henry?" Patrick looked at me playfully."Where did you get that from, Patrick? My company is doing very well, thank you!" I replied humorlessly, still stressed from my time at the police station."But you're always here now, almost like you're looking for a job." Patrick laughed, and I rolled my eyes - he was having fun at my expense."You're such a pain, Patrick!" I complained."And you're in too bad a mood to be around my new nephew." Patrick kept that mocking smile on his face while Samantha laughed along with him."After the morning I had at the police station, my friend, even you would be stressed." I commented, pulling up a chair to sit down."What's going on, Henry?" Patrick turned serious."A lot. I came to get Sam for lunc

    Nicole’s POVWhat an idiot Reynold was! We had a plan, why couldn't he just stick to it? And who's this crazy woman beating him up like he's a rag doll? Damn, the security guards! I better go save the man in distress. I started the car, stopped in front of him, and honked. The idiot managed to break free from that crazy woman and got in the car."Step on it, Nicole! Step on it, this lunatic's rabid!" Reynold was panting, disheveled, with a broken nose. I couldn't help but laugh."Man, who is this crazy woman?" I couldn't stop laughing."That's Melissa Larson, some rich guy's daughter and your dear Henry's assistant.""A rich girl fighting like she's done time? Just when you think you've seen it all... She gave you quite a beating." I laughed at his disgusted face as he looked at himself in the car's sun visor mirror."That bitch broke my nose! Come on, take me to a hospital. A far-away one, so we can stay under the radar.""Damn it, Reynold! Why didn't you follow the plan? You were sup

Erica and Emilia were very excited about it.Henry had warned me earlier that he'd be home late because Patrick had organized a last-minute poker game. I thought about having dinner with my mom and Joaquin since I hadn't seen them in days. With that in mind, I was about to pick up the phone to call them as I was getting ready to leave the office, but before I could press the button, the company messenger stopped by my desk and handed me a card with a red rose.This had to be Henry's doing, I smiled at the thought. I opened the card and found a typed message:"My goddess, I miss you. Meet me at the Savoy Hotel, room 1575, at seven o'clock. I have a surprise for you."Ah, my handsome man knew how much I loved surprises. What extravagant thing had he planned this time? Henry's surprises were always elaborate, and I loved it. He was s

    Henry’s POVPatrick set up poker night at Rick's place, wanting to cheer him up since Rick had been really down since Tess left town. I only agreed to come because of Rick; I couldn't let down a friend who'd always helped me. But I didn't plan to stay long - I was restless and desperate to get home to Samantha.We were in the middle of a game, and I couldn't concentrate. Something was bothering me, but I didn't know what. Enzo kept calling, which was getting on my nerves. I let the first two calls go to voicemail, but by the third, I was worried the kid might be in trouble."What is it, Enzo?" I answered sharply."Hi, uncle. I'm fine, thanks for asking. How are you?" Enzo was always sarcastic when I answered in a bad mood."What do you want, kid? You sound fine.""Yeah, I am. But I'm curious about something.""Enzo, learn to get to the point, don't beat around the bush." I ran my hand across my forehead, feeling my patience wearing thin."I just talked to Aunt Sam, and I'm curious. Sin

    Henry’s POVAfter examining Samantha, Molina gave her some medicine to help her relax. According to him, she would sleep until the next day. I left the bedroom door open with Cinnamon lying at the foot of the bed watching over her, then went downstairs to talk to the others."How is she, son?" My mother rushed toward me."Very shaken up, Mom. Alvaro gave her some medicine and she's asleep. He said she'll sleep until tomorrow," I replied as my mother placed her hand on my face."And how are you?" The concern was visible in my mother's eyes."I don't know how to tell you. There's a mix of feelings inside me and none of them are good," I spoke truthfully - I felt tired, exhausted, and I wanted to kill Reynold."Take it easy, man. That piece of trash is in jail and won't be getting out anytime soon," Flavian put his hand on my shoulder."Thanks, Flavian. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have made it in time," I thanked him for being a madman who drove like he had a death wish."No need to

    Henry’s POVAfter all the stress of the last few days, especially everything that happened the day before, waking up with my goddess in my arms, sleeping peacefully was a balm for all the wear and fear I had felt.Sunlight was shining subtly through a gap in the bedroom curtain. I never tired of admiring how beautiful Samantha is, how her skin glows under the sun as if tiny points of light were sparkling. My fingers drew circles on her silky, velvety skin.She was sleeping peacefully with her head on my chest, one leg thrown over mine, and an arm wrapped around my waist. Her mouth, which looked like a ripe strawberry ready to be picked, was slightly parted, and her long black eyelashes adorned her closed eyes. Her curly hair was spread between us and across the bed. Samantha is absolutely gorgeous!But it was more than that. Samantha was a strong, determined woman who loves boundlessly and without restraint. She gives herself completely to those she loves and doesn't think twice about

    Nicole’s POVI had planned everything so perfectly with Romulus - it was a foolproof plan. He would make little Samantha disappear, and I would have time to seduce and wrap my golden goose, Henry, around my finger.I arranged to meet that annoying Pearl at a remote mall, so there'd be no risk of her running into anyone she knew. I made up a story about not having a car and how this mall was close to my house. The idiot believed me and agreed to meet there, so I wouldn't have to waste money on a taxi or take the bus.As soon as she arrived, I asked to borrow her phone to call "my daddy," claiming mine was dead. Being ever so helpful, she lent me her unlocked phone. Very carefully, I called Romulus, and after ending the call, I returned the phone. She placed it on the table and turned to call the waiter. It was easier than I thought - I didn't even need to steal her whole purse.One of my brother's guys was already nearby to help us. He walked by and snatched the phone without her notici

    Samantha’s POVI was relieved to see my mother was okay. It was incredibly lucky that Enzo ran into her - one of those things that nobody can explain, where some call it luck and others divine providence. But I can definitely say this kid saved me again. After they told everything that happened at the mall and Henry confirmed that the Nicole who was with my mother was the same Nicole who was his ex-girlfriend, everything made sense.And we were heading to the police station - my mother, Enzo, Henry, and me. Honestly, I just wanted to go home, but Flavian asked us to come there, so there was no way around it."Henry, why did Flavian ask us to go to the police station?" I asked, still not accepting that I couldn't go home."Sam, you were the victim of Romulus's setup. It was a fake kidnapping, true, but clearly intended to force you to go to him. Plus, your mother's phone was stolen and used for this." Henry repeated the same thing, but I felt he was hiding something from me."I want to

    Flavian’s POVI had to say, this raid on Pipote Hill was only supposed to serve three arrest warrants for homicide, but it turned into a complete mess. Three drug dealers dead and two cops wounded, all because they wouldn't let us in. It was all because of that punk Sandro who decided to set up a drug spot here. I only decided to serve these warrants personally snice one of them was Sandro's drug spot manager, and I wanted information about this Romulus guy.At least no civilians were hit. People keep talking about stray bullets, but there was no such thing - there are only bullets that find their targets, and innocent people became those targets, which really upsets me. But fortunately, this time no innocent civilians were shot. Though one of the subjects named in the warrants died - he was one of Sandro's soldiers. We arrested the other two. That was six fewer criminals on the streets."Let's move out, team!" called the military police sergeant who came to support us. "Detective, I t

    Samantha’s POVI was getting increasingly nervous. As the car moved toward my destination, I felt more helpless, scared, and distressed. The taxi driver, a very kind gentleman, watched me through the rearview mirror while keeping his eyes on traffic. He drove slowly and carefully, perhaps due to his age, making sure not to cause any accident.My phone rang and I grabbed it from my purse - it was Enzo. I couldn't answer him, I just couldn't. But he persisted. He always did, and I always answered. I thought it through - if I didn't answer, it would raise suspicions. Sure, Michael must have returned to the company, but he probably thought I was in another department and wouldn't be alarmed yet. Maybe he was still looking for me inside the building. So, it was better to answer Enzo.When he told me he was with my mother, I couldn't believe it. Then he put her on the line, and I heard her voice. I couldn't hold back anymore, started crying, and explained that Romulus had called me from her

    Enzo’s POVBeing a student was getting harder and harder. The English teacher decided to make us read a book that was almost impossible to find. I had to trek all the way across town because out of all the bookstores in the malls, only this one had it. Everyone was complaining that they couldn't buy the book because they couldn't find it. I spent two days on the phone and finally tracked it down. So I rushed to secure my copy to avoid getting a zero on the test that the teacher had already warned us about.But since I was at the mall, I might as well take a little walk around. I bought the book first - I had reserved it, but you never know if someone might accidentally sell my copy, so I went to the bookstore first. When I left, I was walking through the food court when I spotted Aunt Pearl at a café nearby. I had to say hello."What a coincidence! Aunt Pearl, how are you?" I approached and noticed she was with a younger woman who was pretty but strange-looking."Enzo, darling, what a
