Lahat ng Kabanata ng Billionaire Ex, Divorce It!: Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 80

*ARTURO*I could not face the Condo alone, so I packed a bag, and for the first time I locked our door, though Louisa is next door, I do not trust that any visitor she may have might not venture over to ours and help themselves, and I don't want anyone else sleeping in our bed.Rio had taken me in, he said we could console each other, think he needed someone to bounce ideas off, and there were few people out there that either of us trusted enough to do that, with. My Dad would be happy to, but I think Rio is trying to keep things to a need-to-know basis, and Dad really does not need to know the ins and outs at this point, maybe when the shite hits the fan, then others will hear about all the shady stuff that has been going on.I am not interested in the shady stuff, I just want my girl home, and I think that is our bond, we both want the same thing, he has lost his sports buddy, and I have lost my everything. That is how it feels, I have this hollow emptiness, L

*ARTURO*The television screen flickered to live viewing, one of the men was wearing a camera on his head and we could see what was going on, they were creeping slowly down the tunnels, the ground had a lot of footprints in the sand, and that was what they were following, an easy guide to the main cavern. even when they came to the fork in the tunnels, I knew was coming up, the footprints only ever went one way, it appeared they had been living in this place for a while, and the thought of this being their main hideout flickered through my mind. This new gang in the city had grown so fast and hidden so well, and for them to be hiding here, they had to have someone who knew the area to place them here.“The gang has high-up help and contacts to be here?”I suggested to Rio, who was leaning forward on his arms watching the screen intently.“You're right, we have most of the names now, we just missing a few links, when they fall into place, then we shall start rounding them up.”Rio said c

*ARTURO*Once I was over the shock, we talked some more, Rio is a good guy, and to be duped by Mona as he had showed how easy it was to do to anyone, and how we might need to look deeper into the marriage recording, with today's technology we should be able to avoid ever having bigamy again, I know some countries it is okay to have more than one partner but not in ours, so we must find a way to improve the recording, will we have to end up with DNA samples or fingerprinting to prove who we are? Should we get that deep, something like this group should never have been able to form, It may have started as a bit of fun thirty years ago, but it grew into something ugly and more sinister.It was nearly three hours before Dad came out of the room holding Lena and sat beside me at the table, Rio was the first to stand up and get him a coffee and toasted sandwich. Dad looked shattered, he does not do all-nighters anymore, and tonight had been not only long for him but he had to work on someon

*ARTURO*Dad reduced Lena’s medication and was now allowing her to wake up slowly, the time of truth was nearing, did she have brain damage? Not remembering me, was my biggest fear, it was not uncommon when having had such bad head trauma to lose a big part that caused pain, and years could disappear from your memory, sometimes it is temporary, and other times it could take years or some kind of trigger to bring it all back.She may go back to thinking she was still married to Dante and that would break my heart.It was Sunday. Rio made some pies, not as good as Lena’s but they smelt good, and brought in some beers,Gustavo joined Dad,Rio, and me, to watch the game, the television was on loud, and we had dressed up in our favorite team's shirts, we even put one on Lena, she was breathing on her own now and we were all just waiting for her to wake up, I had a bet with the men, I bet she would wake up on the first score, Dad said closer to the end and Rio said on the introduction music,

*ARTURO*Rio won the bet, and though we were happy that one of us did. The biggest part is that Lena was awake and some of her memory was there. She seemed to be foggy and of course tired, staying awake for the whole game surprised us all, the amount she did remember told us there was no permanent brain damage, and she was able to eat, though only a little, and seemed to have good movement, all good signs. We were worried about any type of brain damage that could have caused difficulty in many areas including motor skills, which would be the hardest if Lena could not use her arms or legs or even her hands, but it seems all that was working fine, so far.“Don't worry son, she is strong, her memory will come back and she will remember you, it is not unusual to lose part of the memory in the beginning.”“But she remembers you and Mum, but not me. It is hard Dad, I was so hoping...”“I know son, give it time.”Dad patted me on the back and left, coming back in the morning to check on her.
