Antonio was pacing up and down in the living room, fist clenching and unclenching, sometimes raised as though he wanted to hit something—anything to soothe his frustration.

Camila had settled on the couch right beside Abuelo's wheelchair; his feet kept tapping onto the floor like it could somehow summon Alberto from wherever he was.

And then there's Ernesto. On the phone, yelling, tie askew, jacket sprawled on the couch, his hair a mess as he had run a hand through it a few times.

Ernesto slammed his fist on the table.

"I don't give a fuck if you think it's 'too early' or 'overreacting,' Mateo. Mija is GONE! They reported him missing to the police, and guess what? The police are doing jack shit! 'Just a routine disappearance,' they said. ROUTINE?! Alberto doesn't just disappear! He's not some kid who ran off because he's grounded! And a search party? You think I haven't thought of that? We've called everyone, every friend, every place he might be! Nothing! You expect me to sit here

  • I Am Dead To You Husband    Chapter 079

    Camila stood there, fuming as Ernesto's car peeled out. The mocking salute was a clear challenge. He wasn't just avoiding her; he was daring her to dig deeper.Antonio's gross comment about his dad "taking Julie for a ride" now made sick sense, showing just how messed up Ernesto really was.Even Julie, as cold as she was, had truly freaked out.The last few guests were heading for their cars while she was heading back to the studio. But she couldn't shake the thought off—Julie flee Ernesto's desperation or catch her. It was like a black hole sucking her in.She pulled out her phone. Finding out about Ernesto wouldn't be easy. He was clearly a man with serious secrets. But Camila wasn't playing nice. She needed to find someone who was ready for him, someone who could find all his dirty laundry. And she knew just the kind of folks who traded in secrets for a price. At least, she knew who knew.This wasn't going to be a simple walk down memory lane; she was about to dive headfirst into t

    Camila picked up the pace then, the red dress a flash, a tiny dot she couldn't lose sight of. She was hot on its heels, heading for a quieter part of the studio – those back corridors nobody really goes down. When she whipped around the corner, there she was, back to Camila, just standing there by the window. Even with that huge hat hiding her face, Camila knew exactly who it was. The flair, the elegant still, almost dangerous way she carried herself? Yeah, no mistaking it."What do you want, Julie?" Camila crossed her arms, standing a few steps away, keeping as much distance as possible. You never can predict Julie when she's like this. Quiet, cold, detached. Julie didn't turn, fingers tracing patterns on the window pane. "Come on, stand with me. I won't bite," she said calmly, a way too soft to be cautious of.Camila didn't move an inch. "What do you want, Julie? We both know this isn't chit chat; get straight to your insults."Julie finally turned, leaning on the window, shook h

    Antonio broke the kiss, his eyes searching hers. He started to turn, sensing someone else, but Camila immediately gripped his chin."Don't look at him. He’s just… background noise," she whispered and pulled him back, her lips crashing onto his again, a fierce, almost desperate kiss that demanded his full attention.She wasn't letting Lawson, or anyone, interrupt this... especially not a ghost from her past. She poured every ounce of defiance and craving into the kiss. Maybe this would finally get Lawson to go away. To give up on her. To make him know there was absolutely no place for him anymore.Antonio groaned, but he complied, deepening the kiss once more. He didn't fight her.When they finally broke apart, both breathless and flushed, she glanced at the spot where Lawson had been, but he was gone.A small, triumphant smile played on Camila’s lips.Good.Antonio just shook his head. "You're something else, Cami."Camila shrugged. "Actions speak louder than words, right?"Antonio la

  • I Am Dead To You Husband    Chapter 076

    Camila was in her happy place: the top floor of her new building, which was basically her giant studio. The scent of fresh paint and new beginnings filled the air, mingling with the excited chatter of early arrivals downstairs.She smoothed down her dress and touched her makeup, swirling at the mirror before stepping out of her private office. This was it. Months of planning, sketching, and stressing, all leading to this big moment.As she made her way downstairs, the hum of conversations grew louder. She recognized familiar faces—her core team, a few loyal clients, some local business folks. And then there was Cole, who wasn't invited, but she knew he'd come anyway. And there was Madison, clinging to him like a limpet as they mingled with some of the guests.Her gaze swept through the crowd, a smile on her face, but there was just this rapidly growing panic setting in.This was real. This was happening. Her heart was pounding. And yes, a wave of nervous excitement was buzzing, making

    Antonio and Abuelo stood by the archway, a little way off, watching the spectacle unfold in the grand living room.Ernesto was in his element, holding court. He had one woman draped over each arm, laughing loudly, his head thrown back, as he twirled them around. They giggled, fawning over him, their dresses swirling as he dipped one, then spun the other, a grin plastered across his face.He looked like he hadn't a care in the world, like he was the king of the castle, and these two were his loyal subjects.Abuelo grunted, watching Ernesto twirl one of the women. "So, this is what's been occupying his mind in prison, eh?" He then nudged Antonio, a dry look in his eye. "And you, you were about to give him a free room in your hotel? Free of charge? That's not good for business, son. Not good at all."Antonio's gaze was still fixed on his father, but his mind was miles away, churning.Why was Ernesto so damn carefree? No mention of the business, no grand plan for his 'return' after what?
