Romina had seen Yolanda as soon as she left the restaurant, so she said Julio’s name intentionally to attract Yolanda’s attention.
As expected, Yolanda took the bait, but she was crazier than Romina imagined. She was in a lot of pain from the beating.
Romina endured the pain and Yolanda’s beating, she pushed Julio:
-Go away, don’t worry and don’t let anyone see you.
Because Yolanda was too flashy, many people were attracted.
While protecting her head, Romina looked at Yolanda with tears in her eyes and kept apologizing:
-I’m sorry, it’s all my fault, I’m the one who seduced him, this affair has nothing to do with him. Your daddy likes his family and his daughter very much. It’s all my fault… I’m sorry, I’m sorry…..
She looked weak and had a delicate and soft face, eyes with tears even aroused the sympathy of many people on the scene, especially Julio.
He liked Romina very much and felt that she matched him everywhere. When Yolanda came, he was very embarrassed and guilty.
He never imagined that Romina was beaten like that and kept defending him. The balance in Julio’s heart suddenly tipped, he ran and grabbed Yolanda’s wrist, his eyes were full of anger:
-Enough!
Yolanda was grabbed, her hair was disheveled and her cheeks were flushed. She looked at Julio in disbelief like a crazy woman:
-Dad, are you protecting her? Do you know what you’re doing?
-Do you know what you’re doing? You don’t decide in your father’s things -Julio’s voice was full of anger-. Don’t make trouble, she’s close to the Group. Many people know us, it’s better not to make things worse.
-Do you also know the shame? -Do you know that our company is about to go bankrupt and do you know that Grupo Seco has announced that it has nothing to do with us? They don’t want to help us anymore, Umberto will come to us, do you know that our family is about to lose the good life?
Julio was surprised when he heard this. To escape from Yolanda and his mother, he had already turned off his cell phone. Almost everyone couldn’t reach him and he had no idea what was going on outside.
Yolanda looked at his stunned expression, her eyes becoming even more sarcastic:
-Now you only focus on this bitch, you’ve forgotten about me, my mother, our family and the company. Julio, what a scoundrel you are.
The guilt in Julio’s heart was removed by her look and her disrespectful words. He knew it was not the time to argue and did not get angry with Yolanda. He took a deep breath, turned his head to look at Romina, who looked weak and pitiful, then said in a low voice:
-Go home and I’ll find you in the evening after I settle this.
Romina raised her head and looked at him.
Her eyes were full of tears. There were bruises on her face that were bruised by Yolanda, not only did she not look embarrassed, she looked more pitiful.
Not really bothered, she listened to Julio’s words and nodded. Before leaving, she looked at Yolanda with fear and then looked at Julio with concern.
Julio understood what she meant. Romina was afraid that Yolanda would harm him because of this. He felt very moved and comforted her:
-It’s okay, she doesn’t dare to hit me, I’m her daddy.
Romina left with a sigh of relief.
Yolanda saw all the performances of this woman, there was a wave of anger running through her. What happened to this woman? She was more of a hypocrite than she was.
Although Romina’s performance was natural, Yolanda, as a woman, how could she not know that she was faking it to get Julio’s sympathy?
But Julio was immersed in it and could not understand it at all. Even if she knew clearly and wanted to remind him to see this woman’s true face, he supposed Julio would believe that she hated Romina and was slandering her in front of him.
Yolanda’s face flushed even more in anger, looking at Romina’s back with hatred in her eyes.
Julio was about to speak to her when he saw Yolanda’s eyes, frowned and was shocked. His daughter had been spoiled since she was a child, she was so cruel. The eyes now were more terrifying than the past, as if she wanted to eat people.
-Yolanda, come back to the company with me -Julio didn’t want to make a scene here, so he grabbed Yolanda and walked to the company.
He still hadn’t fully figured out the company’s situation and asks Yolanda about the detailed situation. After hearing what she said, Julio realized that things were more difficult than he thought.
-How could the Seco Family go back on their word? They changed the decision like that, aren’t they afraid that their reputation would be damaged? For a businessman to go back on his word is very fatal.
Julio was anxious and angry. He turned on his cell phone and was looking at the official blog of Grupo Seco. As soon as he refreshed it, he saw a new message.
It was a video and the text was an apology to Umberto.
Julio was stunned for a moment and clicked on the video. He saw Jaime who apologized to Umberto humbly.
The video was very short, only a few minutes. After watching it, he turned to look at Yolanda and asked her:
-I know you have been with Jaime all this time and have a close relationship with him. Why did he apologize to Umberto? What is the real reason? Tell me clearly.
As soon as Julio spoke, Yolanda became nervous.
Just now, she intentionally hid the fact that she and Jaime attacked Umberto and Albina. The Dry Group was missing their words. She did not expect that this video aroused Julio’s suspicion.
Julio only had one daughter and knew her character well. Seeing her eyes rolling in panic, he knew the tricks she was up to.
He only asked about Jaime, Yolanda was so scared. This matter had to do with her absolutely.
-Tell me. Jaime offended the Santangel Family, did you get involved in this too? -Julio’s voice rose a little.
Under his gaze, Yolanda finally spoke everything.
Right after explaining everything, Julio slapped her. He was so angry that his chest up and down, he looked at Yolanda with anger:
-What are you doing? You know well that the Santangel Group wants to attack us and it is not easy for our company to be stable. What is most needed right now is a discreet development, but you attacked Umberto with Jaime. Do you think you can do it?
Julio had put all the blame on Yolanda.
Yolanda lowered her head, covered her cheek and looked at him:
-What can I do? I did it for the company. Umberto hates the Carballal Group, as long as we killed him, we wouldn’t have to worry about it all day. Jaime has the confidence and we almost made it….
If she walked a little more in the cave, even a little, Umberto and Albina wouldn’t make it out alive.
But she missed it just like that. Once she missed it, it triggered a series of events and the Santangel Family’s revenge began.
Yolanda’s tears welled up and she looked at Julio with dissatisfaction:
-I have been working hard for the company. I begged the Seco Family and I did everything I could for Yoli. I have done so much. What have you done?
She scoffed and her voice was cold:
-You are only with women, you don’t even care about your family or company. Is that woman so good that you should give up everything?
Julio got angry and raised his hand again towards Yolanda.
Seeing that Julio wanted to hit her, Yolanda brought her face directly closer:
-Slap me, you just slap me until I die. If I die, I wouldn’t have to see the Group go bankrupt.
Julio was so angry that his face turned blue, he raised his hand for a long time and finally lowered his hand in despair.
-Go back to the company first and see what the Santangel Group is doing! If they can’t wait to attack us, it’s going to be a bad day.
