The chef had prepared some Tostadas and milk for me before heading off to rest.I was allergic to cheese and milk, but I couldn't bring myself to tell her. I didn't want her to feel obliged to prepare something else for me.

After swallowing them, I picked up my phone to check the notifications that had popped up.That was when I saw a text from Juan urging me to pick up his calls—he said it was urgent.

This was precisely what I needed to know about Adriana. Now, I could tame her and bring her to her knees.I quickly speed dialed Luis’ number and waited for him to answer. “Luis, meet me at home in thirty minutes,” I told him when he answered.“Is it urgent?” he asked. I was still looking at the paper I held, a grin spreading across my face.“Just meet me at home. I'll be waiting,” I said and hung up.
