Semua Bab A Woman Scorned: Bab 11 - Bab 20

SHE was summoned by the network executive that morning when she came to work. It was quite unusual since they only talked during company events and contract signings. They never really had a conversation in her office. She also didn't see any reason for her to speak with her. As far as she could remember, she hadn't committed any violations whatsoever. She also didn't receive any major awards recently for her to be called by her bosses."What is this all about, Miss Pam?" she asked her manager who was also with her that morning."Your guess is as good as mine, dear," her manager simply shrugged. It seemed like they were both clueless as to what was really happening."I'm sorry I got caught up in traffic," said Mrs. Cecelia De Guzman, the network executive, when she arrived in her office. "I hope I didn't keep you waiting for so long.""It's okay, ma'am. We just got here," she pleasantly responded."That's great, then. So, yeah, good morni

MIGUEL was furious. He had no idea what Francis Villegas was up to, but he would never betray him because he knew something far more interesting about him. They made a deal and he wouldn't break that. Luckily, he had the chance to speak with him after dinner when he saw him standing by the pool with a bottle of wine."What was that about?" he clinched his teeth. He tried to keep his rage hidden because he didn't want others to notice the tension between them."What?" He even had the guts to act innocent."Were you going to tell them about my affair?""Of course not," he replied calmly. "I know you have something against me. So why would I spill your secrets?""That's the same question I have in mind. Why did you provoke me earlier? What the hell were you trying to do?""Did I provoke you? Oh, sorry, that wasn't my intention at all."He became more enraged with each passing secon. Their marriage was already on the rocks, and he couldn't afford to complicate things more because of Fran

THE dinner was tension-filled. Apparently, Miguel had a feeling she was up to something. Of course, she wouldn't pass up such an opportunity. She had no intention of forcing them to confess their sins because she knew they would refuse. Unless you take drastic measures, a criminal will never admit to his crimes. However, that wasn't the time for drastic measures. It was time to be a little more subtle, while still making them aware of her power. They had to know that she was in complete command of the situation. She had been fooled for a long time. It was now up to her to play her cards wisely and defeat all of her opponents. She would, however, take her time."This is nice," Isabella said as she sipped her red wine. "I am so glad to have the opportunity to spend time with you. I never imagined Miguel would have such a lovely family!""Why not?""You see, before you got married, your husband was such a playboy. I couldn't see him ever settling down. His thoughts were set on women and

THE unexpected double date went well despite the tension and awkward atmosphere. Mike, Isabella's date, dominated the conversation with his curious questions. He was such a fan of Elena that he couldn't help but ask her about her job. She gladly answered her questions, still acting as if she was having fun despite the fact that she was itching to go home."I hope that guy she's dating is single," she joked as they walked towards the restaurant's parking lot."Why would you say that?" She noticed the annoyance in his voice."Hey, c'mon, I'm just kidding.""It's not a good joke, 'hon. Isabella is our good friend."She wished she could snap and tell him she was already aware of their secrets. The fact that her husband defended Isabella only confirmed her suspicions. Isabella de Guia was unquestionably his mistress! But, of course, she kept her cool because it wasn't the right time to spill the beans. She needed to be a little more patient."I know, but can you blame me? She wrote a book

ELENA decided to go home and rest because she was so depressed. Her mind was still on her unfinished interview with Isabella. She had so many things she wanted to say to her, but she decided to be patient a little longer. She couldn't throw serious charges against her without sufficient evidence.She was greeted by their wedding portrait as she entered the bedroom. When she looked at it, she was transported back to that special day. It was the happiest time of her life. That was the day she realized she was worthy of being loved and cherished by someone. When Miguel entered her life, she realized she no longer needed to beg for love. A special person finally entered her life to give her the love she truly deserved.However, it turned out that she was sorely mistaken. Everything was a lie... a big joke!"How can you do this to me?" she cried, tears streaming down her cheeks.She wasn't perfect, but she was a good wife. Despite being busy with her career and pursuing her dreams, she had
