Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 1424: Impossible to Guess and Feel
Because of what had happened with The Cajigas Family, Cris' company had also been affected, with a small drop in stock. "Damn Marcos!" Chris gritted his teeth with a hostile look on his face.
In contrast to his anger, Rawlins looked calm, taking a sip of the coffee on the table and speaking slowly and deliberately, "I expected this situation today."
At this, Chris approached him and questioned him with a look of displeasure, "So why didn't you prepare for it?"
"Prepared?" Rawlins put down his coffee and looked at him, "Marcos is an unpredictable and unpredictable man, how could I have prepared?"
"So you keep saying you saw this day coming?" Chris frowned, had he been overseas too long to understand his words?
"Isn't it normal for situations like this to happen nowadays? Since he's trying to deal with us, he'll definitely try to find our weaknesses."
"It's normal, but if it continues like this, we will lose." Chris sat across from him and said hatefully, "We can't let him get away with this! Something must be done to stop what he plans to do next." Rawlins was silent for a moment, "... If I'm right, he's trying to dismantle the companies we work with one by one, The Cajigas family is the first, who's next?"
At the mention of The Cajigas family, Chris's expression turned grim, "Damn The Cajigas family, they don't know how to wipe their own asses, and they're dragging us into it!"
"The Cajigas family is finished this time." Rawlins shook his head and sighed, "We've lost a deputy too."
"Marcos has to be stopped!" said Chris, squinting, with a baleful look, "We can't lose, no matter what!"
"Lose?" Rawlins scoffed, "That's not going to happen! As long as the Leoz Group doesn't fall, I won't give up!"
...
The stock of La familia Cajigas has fallen again and again, reaching an all-time low, and is on the verge of bankruptcy.
As a result of this fall of The Cajigas family, The Bartram Group and several other companies they work with have also been affected, and even their reputation has taken a bit of a hit.
Rawlins and Chris tried to salvage the situation, but to no avail, and for a time The Cajigas family, the Bartram Group, Chris' company and others were in the public eye.
The result was so painful that Alvaro exclaimed.
"Let's see if they dare go against the Leoz Group again!" grumbled Alvaro.
Marcos calmly looked at the news on his laptop and, when he finished reading it, he closed the screen and his thin lips parted, "It's not enough, not by a long shot." "What's not enough?" asked Alvaro in amazement.
"What happened to La familia Cajigas was not enough." Marcos raised his eyes, his unperturbed look settled on his face, and then said, "Get in touch with the woman's family and tell them to go to La familia Cajigas and make a scene and take Joy to court!"
As things stood, La familia Cajigas could easily turn around if the Rawlins and the others stepped in to help.
The Cajigas family had to be put down once and for all.
Alvaro nodded, "Okay, I'll get in touch with someone."
"Besides, even if The Cajigas family goes down, there are still some other companies out there, we have to find a way to bring down another one."
Alvaro raised an eyebrow, "Don't worry, bro, I know what needs to be done."
"That's hard work for you."
Even though Marcos said it with a frown on his face, Alvaro knew he was genuinely worried about him and scoffed with a smile, "Brother, if you really think I'm working too hard, give me a long vacation when I'm done." Marcos agreed without saying a word, "Okay."
"That's what you said, don't break your word then." Alvaro remembered that last time he had promised to give himself his first long vacation, but then enough things had happened and he had fallen off. "Hmm."
Seeing Marcos nod, Alvaro left contentedly.
For a few days, Paulina didn't drive Esteban to and from school, mainly because Marcos had told her that he now had someone to drive her and didn't want her to make a hard round trip.
That day, after meeting with a client, Paulina turned around at an intersection on her way to the office and drove to Esteban's school on a whim.
When she arrived at the school, she sat in the car and waited for classes to end.
As soon as it was time to leave, she opened the door, got out of the car and followed the other parents inside the school.
Paulina expected to see how happy Esteban would be to see her, but when she got to her class, the teacher was dismayed to see her.
"Mom Esteban, what brings you here, is something wrong?"
Paulina didn't hear the bad in her words at first and smiled back, "I'm here to pick up Esteban."
"But Esteban hasn't been to school for days."
"What?" Paulina thought she had misheard.
"Esteban's father has greeted the school and said that Esteban is not feeling well and won't be going to school for a while."
Seeing Paulina's puzzled face, the class teacher frowned, "You don't know?".
A break from school for a while?
Paulina forced a smile, "I really didn't know."
"That's not possible, didn't Esteban's father tell you?"
Paulina couldn't answer, she hurriedly said, "I'm leaving now, maestro," and left.
She had to go back to Marcos and ask him what the hell was going on.
Marcos looked at his watch and frowned slightly.
He had called the client and told him that they had finished their meeting some time ago.
That meant Paulina should have been back in the office by now.
But they hadn't seen her yet, could something have happened on the way?
Mark got up with the intention of going out to take a look around.
At that moment, the office door was pushed from outside.
It was Paulina.
"Paulina, where have you been?" asked Marcos with concern, as he walked quickly around his desk and approached her.
Paulina looked at him with an expressionless face and a slightly angry look.
Marcos frowned, "What's the matter with you?"
"I went to pick up Esteban today and then the teacher told me that Esteban hasn't been in school for days, is that what's wrong?"
His voice sounded without any rise or fall, completely inaudible to the emotions he was feeling at that moment.
Mark turned his head to the side, avoiding her clear gaze, and raised a hand to rub his nose, "I was the one who took Esteban out of school for a while." "Why did you take a break from school?" Paulina leaned closer and pinned him with her eyes, "Tell me the reason."
Marcos looked at her and knew in his heart that he couldn't hide it from her.
So he told her the truth about Esteban's situation.
"You're saying Esteban has psychological problems? In therapy?" Paulina's eyes widened in surprise.
This was something she had not expected at all.
Marcos nodded, "Yes. He goes to Manuel's studio at regular hours every day."
"How dare you keep something so important from me." Paulina became angry, "He's my son, how could you do that?".
