Chapter 1 - The Plot Against Miguel

Miguel is trying to walk away from Emilia's troubles, but Emilia insist on tormenting him. Miguel walks into the living room furiously, Emilia follows him as if she wants to eat him up

"I've had enough of this relationship Miguel, Emilia said. "I don't even know what I stand to gain. How can I, the first daughter of the Gonzales family, be married to a man that works in my own father's company? A man who can't fend for himself. My younger sisters are married to wealthy men. Why should I be stuck with you?"

While they were arguing Miguel's 12yrs old daughter Abigail walked close to the living room and was watching the argument cause the door was open. But Emilia didn't care if her daughter was watching, she just wanted to state her point clearly to Miguel.

Miguel knew he couldn't walk away from this one this time he had to face Emilia. Miguel turned around and said "listen Emilia your lack of respect and arrogancy will definitely take you no where"

Emilia felt insulted by what Miguel said she replied with a loud voice and said 

"Miguel you're a gold digger!! That's what you are, a low life gold digger. You're only after my family's wealth that's why you're married to me!"

Miguel replied her and said "think whatever you want woman, I don't care". Emilia was fed up of Miguel always winning the argument and always getting away with what he wants but not this time she thought to herself

"Miguel I want a divorce!" Emilia said

Abigail had to cut into their argument and started pleading "please mother don't leave father"

Miguel laughed at Emilia's foolish request he then turned to Emilia said "listen to me Emilia Mendoza, there will be no divorce and that's my final decision on this matter. Yes you might feed me, cloth me, house me, but that will not change who I am. I am Miguel Mendoza, son of Robert Mendoza and in our family we know how to handle people like you, Emilia my dear wife. There will be no divorce and that is my final decision. 

Miguel walks away with their little daughter. Emilia is so angry her plan to divorce Miguel didn't work. She has to look for other means to get rid of Miguel.

 Emilia was sad and angry so she went back to Beatrice, her mother and Selene, her aunt, who were advising her on how to get rid of Miguel. Emilia came into the room and was complaining to her mother that her plan to divorce Miguel didn't work.

 "He's just too stubborn, she said.

"No man is too stubborn for me" Beatrice said, "I always know my way around". Emilia was confused about what her mother was talking about so she asked 

"So what do you suggest we do, how do you suggest we get rid of Miguel?" Beatrice folded her hands and said 

"He's the one in charge of production and distribution in the Gonzalez plantation is he not? And they have a delivery to make to the governor tomorrow, we will plant hard drugs in the delivery truck" both women were shocked to hear this 

"Mother, this madness," Emilia said. Beatrice turned to her daughter and said 

"We always go extra miles just to make sure our enemies are defeated" Selene couldn't believe her ear 

"Planting hard drugs on the truck won't implicate only Miguel, it will implicate the entire Gonzales business" Emilia agreed to what Selene said. Beatrice looked at the two ladies and smiled and said "I know my husband, he'll do anything possible to clear his name. The business will not be implicated because my husband will do everything within his power to make sure his name is cleared off the incident therefore leaving Miguel as the only victim of the incident"

 Back at the plantation Miguel was the chief of the staffs he made sure all the staffs were working and productivity was being carried out. The Gonzales family plantation is known to supply crops even to government officials and all round the town and villages. That day about three trucks of agricultural produce was to be supplied to the governor and this task was to be overseen by Miguel. And this was the perfect opportunity to act on Beatrice's plan and get rid of Miguel for good.

 Emilia paid some of the staffs who worked with Miguel to smuggle drugs into one of the trucks. The staffs did what Emilia said cause she gave them money and promised them promotion. Later that night when Miguel got home he took his bath and was ready to eat his food. He ate the food happily and went to bed and slept soundly for he did not know that Emilia drugged the food with sleep enhancers. This drugs made Miguel to sleep all through the night into the day. The trucks left the farm to the governor's house at Emilia's order this was truly the end of Miguel Mendoza.

 The truck soon approached the governor's warehouse and was to be unpacked by the governor's staff. When the governor's staff discovered the hard drug smuggled into the truck they immediately reported the matter to their superior, and their superior reported it to the governor himself. The governor was furious because the kind of hard drug that was discovered in the truck was very illegal due to its deadly nature. Without wasting time he commanded that the truck and goods be seized without payment, he also ordered anti-drug specialist officers to the Gonzales Plantation to round up all the staff and shut down the business. He had a lot of negative intentions about the Gonzales family; he also planned to lock Both Miguel and Edison up for running an illegal drug mine. This could really be the end of the Gonzales family business.

 Back in the plantation the anti-drug special team just arrived and placed all the staff in the plantation including Miguel under arrest. Then they went to the Gonzales mansion with their arrest warrant signed by the governor to arrest Mr Edison Gonzales. Mr Edison was surprised to hear that hard drugs were discovered in the truck but a part of him knew this was Beatrice's hand work. Mr Edison was cuffed and taken away, as the family members pleaded for the special force to let him go...
