SINGLE MOTHER AND CEO

The Narrator:

In Ciudad la Rosa, in the Medina mansion.

The delinquents hired by Mirelys and her mother, some of them subdued the watchman, who was located in the front of the mansion, who in the struggle with them, was injured. Others entered through the back door and subdued the gardener.

The gardener was working in the garden when he noticed the presence of two people from outside the family, who entered through the service gate. When he complained to them about the unauthorized entry, he was savagely beaten.

Then, they continued their way into the mansion, repressing the female domestic servants, whom they locked in the bathroom. Meanwhile, in the upper part of the house, Yoly del Mar was in her room, chatting on her cell phone with her friends.

Once the women were locked in the bathroom, they, with the way free, went upstairs looking for their victim, who had not noticed anything. One by one, they opened all the rooms until they reached Yoly.

-Help, help! Watchmen! They got into…” she shouted in great fear when she saw two men, wearing balaclavas and armed, enter her bedroom.

One of the criminals threw himself on the bed, slapped her, hit her hard between the chest and abdomen, causing her to faint. They then quickly took her out of the house and fled with her from the scene.

Once they took her away, when they arrived at a totally desolate spot, they took her out of the vehicle to put her in a black bag. However, she woke up and, crying, begged them to let her go, not to kill her, remembering what she had done to Sofia.

-Please! If you let me go, my family is very rich, they will pay you whatever you want, but don’t hurt me, don’t kill me,” she begged.

-We are not taking you to kill you or hurt you. Someone wants to punish you personally and she will be the one who will pay us very well. So there is no negotiation possible with you,” answered the leader of the group, who, when he finished speaking, made a call.

-Miss, the bird is already in our possession and we are on our way to the nest. Therefore, we must take extreme measures because it is conscious and cannot see the way.

-Perfect! Let’s leave her there for a while so she can learn her lesson, because for now I can’t move from the hospital. Try to keep her unconscious, so she doesn’t notice anything,” ordered Mirelys.

“Ahhh! I forgot to mention, that the man you hired for the accident with the van, was depraved. It was just to give a scare, and the person is almost dying,” she said, annoyed.

-You wanted something real! Well, that’s what I gave him. It’s not my fault, that the person I wanted to scare was so fragile,” he argued.

Besides, I need you to advance me half of the payment, because I have to pay the friends I hired to enter the mansion,” he demanded.

-Yes, don’t worry, I’ll let my mother know. Now erase all these calls made to my cell phone, I don’t want you to involve me in anything,” she ordered.

-Yes, every time she talks to me, she repeats the same thing! -he replied angrily.

-Well, that’s enough! And you know, I want her well tied up, asleep, little food and little water. If you get something to keep her drugged, I think it will be better. I want her to become an addict! -she demanded.

-Who will pay for the consumption? -the delinquent consulted.

-My mother! Who else? -she answered, closing the call.

When she hung up the call, Mirelys had a very special gleam in her eyes. Apparently, having Yoly Del Mar locked up in a dingy little room gave her immense satisfaction.

“Ha! The woman has not been born to take away the man I desire,” she reflected, smiling and returning to the place where she was, before receiving the call.

-Aunt Anastasia, is there any word? -she asked, showing concern for Camila’s health.

-No, the doctor who examines her at this hour has not come out, he is still in there,” answered Anastasia, looking at the door.

-Mirelys, but if you want you can leave, the three of us are not doing anything out here waiting for news. You’ve already done a lot, giving first aid when it was needed,” said Diana.

-Thank you, Diana! For caring about me, however, I feel guilty because I was driving. Honestly, I couldn’t do anything to avoid the collision! -she remarked, averting her gaze to the left.

Anastasia, perceiving this gesture, doubted her, since this is typical of those who lie. In view of this perception, her alarms went off and she decided not to allow this woman to accompany her sister Camilla.

-Diana is right! -Anastasia added, “I share her opinion, you may leave. Besides, you are not Camila’s relative,” her niece Diana looked at her with wide eyes, astonished at her aunt’s words.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Immediately, she got up from where she was sitting and approached the doctor, who was leaving just at that moment.

-She is stable, hopefully in the course of the day she will wake up normal and we will be able to evaluate the new results,” the doctor commented to Anastasia.

-Why is she so sleepy? The anesthesia should have worn off by now,” consulted Anastasia.

-Because I prefer to keep her sedated so that she doesn’t suffer from the pain of the wounds she has. Trust me, Anastasia! -pleaded the doctor, a friend of the two sisters.

So Mirelys said goodbye to them, offering to come back after she rested. Once she had left, Anastasia commented….

-When she said that she could not do anything to avoid the collision, she looked to the left at once, that means she was lying, hence the words I said,” she justified.

-Aunt, but you were so cruel! The way you expressed yourself made me feel ashamed,” Diana murmured.

-My love, you must learn to say no, when you don’t want something, or yes when you do want it, without adding anything else and without lying. Why sugarcoat our words, especially with someone who doesn’t deserve it,” she affirmed.

-Oh, aunt! I know Mirelys has never been a saint of your devotion and I understand you, because I don’t like the harassment she keeps on my brother Rafael either. However, sometimes it’s good to be diplomatic,” said Diana, with a half smile.

-Not even if I were an ambassador in another country,” answered Anastasia with sarcasm, which was unusual for her.

In Ciudad La Rosa, in a rural health care center.

Before forty-eight hours had passed since the Jane Doe had been admitted to the rural health center, Doctor William Soto, talking to his colleague, observed how his patient began to react.

Immediately, he approached the bed and began to take her pulse, which was witnessed by his colleague and friend. She opened her eyes, well as much as she could because they were still very bruised and swollen from the blows she had received.

-Hello, can you see me? -Soto questioned the stranger, detailing that she was having trouble looking.

-Ssssi! -she answered, with a very low tone of voice.

When it became evident that she regained consciousness, William tried to check her condition. However, he observed that she presented some confusion and disorientation, possibly originated by the brain injury.

-I am William Soto, your neurologist, how are you feeling? -he asked.

-I don’t know! I-I-I hurt all over,” she said, coordinating her words, without moving her body.

-What’s your name? -asked the doctor, taking her by the hands, saddened by the state she was in. To him she was a fine woman.

-Oh! I-I don’t know. No, I don’t remember,” she answered in a trembling voice, trying to move her head sideways, hurting the wound on the back of her head.

-Don’t move! -Do you remember what happened to you? -asked the doctor.

-No,” she answered, trying to raise her right arm, but she could not.

-Calm down! I’m going to ask for an ambulance to take you to another medical center, where there is the equipment that will help me to perform new studies -announced the doctor- Try to sleep.

-Yes! she affirmed, closing her eyes without making much effort.

Dr. Soto, counting on his powerful neighbors, located the ambulance and took her to the Hospital located in the center of the city, where he performed a computerized tomography of the skull.

This study showed the results that the neurologist suspected, that is to say, she presented a cerebral concussion originated by a considerable impact that shook the brain and hit against the skull, producing the mentioned injury.

As a consequence of this, the loss of consciousness, the state of confusion and disorientation that she presents, occurred. In addition, she probably suffers from memory problems, such as amnesia. In any case, for this last diagnosis he will wait for new signs…
