Chapter 24 - CHAPTER TWENTY THREE (Almost there)

Mylar placed her hands on Elio's hands and he turned his face towards her.

"You need to be calm, we can't just go to your dad with such an accusation without evidence." Mylar said to him, he smiled at her and said.

"I wasn't planning on approaching him. We will need to be careful in order to gather evidence that he is really having an affair with her before accusing him." His smile was assuring and gave her some peace of mind.

"That's good. Only then will Camilo believe us because I see that he has a lot of trust and faith in Miss Emelda that can't be shaken by just an accusation and without evidence." Mylar said and Elio looked at her.

"I am glad she is putting Camilo into consideration." Elio thought to himself.

"Well, keep up with the spy job but be careful while doing it so that you won't hurt yourself in anyway." Elio said and patted her on her shoulder.

"Won't you be helping me out?" Mylar asked.

"Sure I will. It's just that I will be very busy at the office because of the production of cosmetics and lingeries and also because of the launch of the company's new creativity." Elio replied.

"I can help with that." Mylar offered but he rejected her offer.

"No, you have more than enough things to do yourself. Just don't forget that you shouldn't ever allow Camilo to find out about it until we manage to succeed." Elio said and they suddenly heard someone asked.

"Camilo shouldn't find out about what?"

They both turned towards the direction of the voice at the same time. Camilo was standing at the door with his gaze firmly on both of them.

"What are you two up to now?" Camilo asked.

"Why do you keep sneaking up on us everytime we are in the middle of a conversation?" Mylar asked him ignoring his question.

"That's not an answer." Camilo said to her with his overly interested facial expression.

"We are not answering because there is no answer to the question you are asking." Elio said to his brother.

"It's something that only me and Elio should know about." Mylar chipped in as well.

"Very well then, don't tell me, I am not even interested."

"But your reaction says otherwise." Elio said looking at his brother.

They were about to start with their silly argument when Elio's cellphone suddenly rang.

"Yeah Trina, what's up?" He listened quietly as Trina told him the reason she called.

"Yes. I will be there tomorrow." He said and hung up.

"I am so thirsty." Elio announced and went to the kitchen leaving the two alone.

"Thank Goodness he's gone." Camilo said out loud with a smile only to turn around and see Mylar staring at him with a weird look.

"What?" He asked sharply and she replied him in a cold tone.

"Why are you happy that he went away?"

"Ummm... I wanted to asked you something." He replied her with his eyes to the ground.

"Go ahead and ask." Mylar said and folded her arms.

"Will you like... Like to go out with me? I promise to take you to wherever you want, just say it and we will go." Camilo said to Mylar with the last confidence he had in himself and held onto the edge of his cloth tightly waiting for her response.

"Sorry I can't. Maybe next time." Mylar responded and Camilo felt his heart miss a beat.

"Why?" He asked quietly.

"Me and Elio have plans. We even made plans to go out after I give birth, that is so silly." Mylar replied and giggled. Camilo wanted to speak but his voice cracked and he felt choked up.

"But you don't have to worry, okay. We can always go next time." She said with a smile as he stared at her like a miserable person, a man who had just finished drinking himself to stupor.

He managed to smile back, she patted him on his left shoulder and went away leaving him there alone in his sadness. She made her way to the kitchen.

Elio!!!! Camilo yelled in his thought and breathes out heavily.

"He beats me at everything, how is he that great." Camilo wispered with a cry and cleanched his fist angrily.

Mylar went to the room afterwards and got dressed in a flowy gown that was comfortable enough for her feel. She also wore a brown sandal to it, a comfortable footwear unlike an high heel shoe.

She looked at herself in the mirror, pushed her hair behind her ears and wispered.

"I can't believe that I will be a mother soon, it still feels so weird." She placed her hand on her stomach and felt a kick, she smiled with a lot of joy in her heart.

"But this role as a mother might be short lived. After two years and few months, I will have to leave you and go away." She said with pain sounding in her voice.

"Wouldn't that make me like my mom?" She asked herself and breaths out sharply.

"A woman who abandoned me only to come back after so many years and claim me back or that I thought she would but turns out she only wanted to make me pay for her surgery then she would run away again." Tears fell from her eyes onto her stomach.

"You shouldn't worry dear, I will never abandone you. After making a name for myself, I will come back and take you away with me." Mylar said with a sudden unshaken determination in her heart.

She wiped away her tears, picked up her bag and went out of the room. Elio was patiently waiting for her downstairs.

After Camilo's sad rejection, he went out of the house earlier on to a destination only he knew.

"Who would ever think that a woman can still look this beautiful even during pregnancy. You are absolutely gorgeous Mylar." Elio praised her as she came downstairs, she smiled and thanked him.

After they left the house, Miss Emelda picked up her phone and called someone.

"Where are you?" She asked with a lovely smile that the person on the other end couldn't see.

"At the office. Why are you calling me Emelda?" He asked with his voice showing how upset he was for being disturbed.

"Can you please come home Julian? There's no one around here, we could enjoy ourselves before they come back." She said in the most seductive way she could manage to make herself sound like.

"I am in a meeting. I just came out to pick your call when you wouldn't stop calling." Mr Julian said feeling really irritated.

"Please." She begged.

"This might be the only opportunity we get. You know that Mylar has been going around lately at night because of her sleepless night issues and this has been stopping us from seeing frequently, so please come." She pleaded making her voice sound like she meant it.

When her pleading was getting too much, he thought about it for a while and then said to her.

"Fine, I will be there in few minutes."

"I will be waiting for you." She said and hung up after sending him a kiss through the phone.

Mr Julian gave an excuse and left the meeting, leaving his assistant to handle things. He got outside, entered his car and drove as fast as he could.

On the way, Mylar thought of the possibility of Mr Julian and Miss Emelda meeting now there was no one at home.

For a while now, Elio noticed that she was quiet and didn't reply to anything he was saying.

"Are you okay?" He asked only after she responded to his fifth calling of her name.

"We should turn around and go back home." She replied him without looking at him.

"What? Why?" He asked shocked and she explained to him.

"You are right." We might actually catch them today." Elio agreed after hearing what she had to say. He turned the car around and they quickly headed back to the house.

Emelda!!! Mr Julian called as he got inside his room but she wasn't there and so he went to check up on her in her room instead.

"I am here." She said sexily as he got inside the room. She was on her bed, wearing the newest lingerie she recently bought. She had a thick red lipstick on her lips.

Her hair was seated losingly on her shoulders. After seeing her this, Mr Julian smiled and went closer.

"You came for me, for that I am very happy." She said with a smile and kissed his cheek leaving a red lip print on it.

"Has Mylar suspected anything?" He asked her and she frowned at his question.

"No she hasn't." She replied and asked him showing how upsetting it was for him to ask that question.

"Are we here to talk about Mylar?"

He had to appease her, so Mr Julian kissed her bare neck and replied.

"No, we are not. We are only here for Julian and Emelda." They both giggled and hugged each other tightly.

"Isn't that father-in-law's car?" Mylar asked as they walked into the compound. They didn't bring in the car, so that they wouldn't alert anyone inside the house.

"Yes, that's his car." Elio confirmed, praying and hoping that he manages to contain his anger when he sees them together.

"I told you." Mylar said, glad that her instinct weren't wrong. They quietly went inside.

"I need to get a document in my room." Mr Julian said to Miss Emelda. She got upset by this and folded her arms together with a frown on her face as she turned away from him..

"Why do you need to do that in the middle of a beautiful moment?" She asked angrily.

"Please allow me to go. I will be right back." Mr Julian said and landed a kiss on her forehead. He got up and left the room.
