Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

She woke up, wash her face in the bathroom and then reach her phone. The message was from Veronica so she played the video and laughed when she saw how scared Marga was. It just made her day. She went to her gym and started her yoga poses.

It didn't take long when the butler came with a tablet on his hand.

"Lady Brina, a call from New York." The butler turned the screen where she could see her husband already in his pajamas.

She took it and the butler left. She went to her room and jump on the bed, lying flat on her stomach and admiring the handsome face of her husband.

"Hey wife, it looks like something keeps you in a good mood today."

"Something did. Plus you called so I couldn't help but to feel over joyed. But anyway, I can't wait for you to be home."

"In a few hours, my dear, the plane will land in the country."

"So you are already on board?"

"Yes."

"I'll pick you up later!"

"Okay." He look at her showing cleavage and nodded there. "Honey why don't you take off that sexy sports bra?" She look down and grin at him.

"Really?" She put the tablet on stand and was about to remove her sports bra.

"Wait." She stop and look at him puzzled. "I'll hang up so I could leave New York and fly there to you."

She giggles and gave him a flying kiss.

"I'll make love to you until dawn so hold your fire." She said with winks.

"Okay. Be good." He hang up and she started giggling to herself. When did she ever become this childish? Suddenly her sweet smile fades. It's been a while. The last time was when her mother was around. It's been a long time that she acted this way, only to him.

She lay her back flat on the bed and close her eyes. It was hard for her to remember those happy moments. Damn her head! Why was it hard for her to remember it? The way her mother smiled at her whenever she make a guilty face. And the way her mother become too girly when she talk about her crushes. All she could remember is how her mother was raped by that man before she was tortured by Janine.

Her heart clenches in pain as she watch Francisco's lustful eyes to her mother. Her mother show disgust toward him and try to fight but the man slap her and almost choke her up.

"I told you I am willing to give you everything!" Ferdinand shouts at her. "But you chose that man that will still betray you in the end. So now, tell me Ana, who is better now?

"Isn't it your plan to drug my husband and get him seduced by that filthy woman of yours?" Anastasia said strongly. Her voice was low but dangerous. "Even if I die in your hands, I would never choose a demon like you." At that moment, Anastasia had forgetten that Sabrina was still at the corner.

She then look at her lovingly.

"Brina, hey, look away. Close your eyes and cover your ears."

"Brina, Sabrina!" Francisco calls. "Sweetheart, why don't you watch how slutty your mother is?"

Sabrina is quiet at that moment. Recording everything she heard and she sees on her mind. Forgetting about everything else and just remembering that moment Francisco spread her mother's legs and ripped her garnet.

Sabrina didn't look away though beads of tears were falling down her cheeks. She didn't look away. She wanted to witness how that man violates her mother and she will forever make him pay.

"Francisco you bastard. I'll make you pay ten thousand folds what you did to my mother." She mutter as she stares at the ceiling.

But that didn't stop. Francisco took her mother away to another room and he was growling in a very animalistic way, saying dirty things like how much he had dream to f@ck Anastasia. She was still shuddering at the corner quietly when Janine told the men that they will have a taste of the General's daughter.

Janine glance at her at the corner and strode with her Dior shoes. She then duck down and smiled at her. She caress her face.

"Sweetheart, don't worry, your mom is fine. She enjoys it. Besides, she will enjoy it more with my men. Soon you'll understand."

She remain quiet and stare at Janine blankly. She will never forget that woman's face.

Remembering those, she just stare up the ceiling without emotions but her eyes were full of tears. After few moments of contemplating and plotting on her next move, she texted Veronica. It didn't take long when Veronica replied her message though she might be in the office of COO.

Big Boss: I want to give your father a gift. The best gift would be what's on your mind.

Lily/Veronica: Best gift it is.

Veronica know the key points in her messages. It's right. Veronica is one of her ace and Catastrophe. Her aces was her best agents. Her aces was her only way—to torture her mortal enemy. And that would be Francisco, Janine and their men who torture her mother.

She takes a shower, put on her usual clothes then left for EPUA. It didn't take long to get there, she sat down on her throne and re-strategize for few more minutes. Then she went to her classified room where the photos of her target are on the build board. She pick the lily flower magnet and place it on the castle of Francisco. Francisco's main business.

"Just few more months Francisco, and I'll summon my Bishop to your castle." In chess piece, Bishop stands at each sides of the King and the Queen. It moves diagonally and could take the other piece if it was in its range.

Catastrophe's magnet with the symbolize of tornado was put aside. Catastrophe has something else to do than to enter the enemy's lair. She's needed to be in Switzerland to make a move in their laboratory. And while Catastrophe is also on vacation leave with her brother somewhere in the islands of the Philippines, she'll just spoil her brother a little since he's too smitten with Catastrophe. She just hope that Enzo wouldn't be someone to ruin her plans.

She got out of the room after what seemed like eight hours only drinking water as she thinks of the next step and how to ruin the laboratory in Switzerland. She had allied with the Switzerland government regarding this laboratory which sells millions of drugs that was shipped to Philippines and China and maybe to other parts of the world but who knows—she'll let Catastrophe do the job.

Her wrist watch beeps, notifying her that it's time to go for her dinner date.

Ignacio was waiting for her outside. She got out from her motorbike and instead of greeting Ignacio, she greets the former General Leandro. Leandro was too fond of her and it's just a shame that she marry Lawson not his grandson. But—he couldn't deny that she's a match to Lawson and Lawson doted her more than Ignacio would.

"Come, let's eat. I am sure that you are hungry." She nodded. Ignacio put a hand on her back as he leads her inside but she pushes his hand away and gave him a warning look.

The table was set formally, with her favorite dishes. She did eat a lot and was questioned by Ignacio. She only shoot him a glare and Leandro admire the girl's attitude.

"You aren't pregnant, are you?" Ignacio asked. She snorted and stab the steak.

"Stop asking her such things you dumb ass!" Leandro scowl Ignacio. "Hurry up and get married. I want great grandchildren."

"Oh, please. If she didn't get married to that—" Ignacio stop midsentence as he noticed her warning stare "That—Gabriel, you would already have great grandchildren with her." She scribble on her tablet.

"I don't plans having children with you. Besides, why didn't you impregnate my great step-sister so Leandro wouldn't bug you off?" She said through her tablet.

"I could let her bare my great grandchild but I would never accept her as a granddaughter." He said. "Go find someone that is more demure." Leandro said as he sipped on his wine.

"General, I could go screw any woman there and give you great-grandchildren but I will never get married."

"Then just go on with your damn life." Leandro said.

These grandfather-grandson relationship was way too weird. She said to herself and glance on her phone. Just two more hours and her husband will be here soon. So Leandro chatted with her for a while and she scribble on the tablet patiently.

After what seemed like forever, she wave goodbye then ride her motorbike to the airport. Soon, she's already in the airport and even got a gate-pass to the departure. She stop her motorbike, immediately she saw her husband's private jet, remove her helmet and run to the walking Gabriel.

"Sabrina." Gabriel was surprised to see her running. Yet he spread his arms and she jump on him, wrapped her legs and arms around him and started kissing his face. He laughed. "Ohh, wifey, why are you so stubborn? Don't tell me that you almost make your bike fly?" He kisses her lips lovingly.
