Chapter 6.

Esther meets Ariadna.

For her part, Esther had also found out about the apparently torrid relationship that Nathan was having with that young pastry chef, who had changed her lifestyle by starting to dance in a prestigious club in Irzania, which Esther was not surprised due to she knew that a woman's life can be difficult to sustain, but ¿was there that much trust in Nathan to let her work at it? The answer to that was yes, which made him remember that his son Thiago, who was young and curious, frequently visited the city's nightclubs; and in one of them, Thiago mentioned to his mother that he had met a tall young woman with a very defined body and beautiful like a damn goddess... That was at the Puerta Secreta club, which coincidentally was the same club where Ariadna also worked, which alerted her as a woman when she realized that her son could be in love with a strange woman, but then he showed a photo of that beautiful woman to his mother and she realized that she was neither a dancer nor a woman, although her androgynous and almost perfect fractions made her herself doubt for a moment about her own sexuality, which is why she asked her son to invite the woman to eat with both of them, to which Thiago happily accepted, and therefore after a few days, he invited her.

To his surprise, that day at lunch on the terrace of the Infinix hotel, the woman who arrived was much taller than her son and it seemed that she was also even older than him, however, there was something in her face, in her eyes or in the way she walked, which made her think about the possibility of having seen her somewhere else, but she no longer remembered...

The lunch passed comfortably... Thiago, with his gaze lost on his beautiful guest, was not paying attention to the conversation between his mother and that woman, who claimed to be called Raquel and who was really nothing, but Nathan, disguised, infiltrating his forbidden life, who was the one who had destroyed Ilan's life, that is, the person who had fixed the feelings in his heart... for this reason, Nathan had sworn to take revenge on Victor in the worst way: he was going to make his son Thiago fall in love with him, then make him suffer as he suffered the loss of consciousness of his beloved Ilan's body...

Esther did not seem to notice anything strange, because that woman named Raquel was cultured, intelligent, mastered the arts and seemed like the perfect woman for her son Thiago, therefore, she allowed herself to let her guard down and relax for a moment, which for her as a woman it was a real relief, because I feared that Raquel was the wife of some powerful man and that they would be involved in more problems than they already were, because they still could not locate who the snitch had been who had leaked this to the authorities who kept their eyes fixed on their family at all times, trying to find the whereabouts of that missing colonel and those Zaxonian men who had practically swallowed the earth...

After that comfortable and pleasant lunch, Thiago invited her to visit his house, but she excused herself saying that she had to return to her mother as soon as possible, since the latter was alone, and of course, faced with such a normal excuse, Esther and her son did not suspect anything and let her go, but they did not realize that while Raquel said goodbye to them fraternally with a kiss and a hug, she had given each of them a locator as small as a mustard seed.

Once at home, Victor and Esther met as usual, but this time the topic of conversation was finding the snitch who had been infiltrating their house. Just then they had the unexpected visit of August Casanova and Nathalie Bardot, who upon seeing them they started asking if they had met anyone recently or had hired any new staff, so Victor replied, ¿do you really think I'm stupid enough to hire someone without telling you first? That's something for newbies, but August replied that they were infiltrating the family's movements day by day; and Alain Bardot, my father-in-law, has already said that he is not going to invest any more in trying to hide the controversies that have tried to leak to the government about where our secret bases are to distribute the requested goods to other countries... then Victor replied: damn August… ¿can't you or Nathalie as his daughter speak for us? At the end of the day you are also part of this family and it is your duty to cover us too, but Nathalie told him:; It's not my fault that you are terrible at managing this place. Furthermore, if I hadn't taken the task of cautiously investigating your movements, I wouldn't have realized that most of the time you spend your time in brothels getting drunk with women who don't  are your beloved wife... 

Most likely, at one of those private parties you have had, you lost track of time and sang like a little bird to one of the prostitutes you sleep with... That is a breaking point that you have Victor, and because of your stupidity, the whole family is suffering huge million-dollar losses. ¿Don't you know how to keep your balls in your pants?... Faced with Nathalie's attack, Victor, annoyed, hit the table and said, pointing at her face with his index finger: Don't talk to me like that, damn it, I am capable of killing you, I don't care that your family is one of the most powerful, because in front of me, you are nothing more than a woman put in this game of chess, you are worthless Nathalie, like that don't play your luck with me, then Esther intervened and said: I think we should calm down and talk more calmly, this way we will only end up killing each other and that is what the enemy wants.

August responded by saying: she is right, Victor, it is time for you to realize that you have made mistakes and assume your responsibility, the Bardot family will no longer support you, plus, Caesar, Nathalie's brother, is missing along with Brianna, the youngest of the Bardot clan, so you can be sure that Alain and Christiane Bardot, at this moment have other more justifiable priorities than helping us, so put on your fucking pants and ASSUME your responsibility once and for all, the more you better clean up the mess you're making and find the damn snitch, otherwise we'll lose everything, including our reputation, and that can only be paid for with death, you know it and I know it... Don't make death come ahead of you. everyone here, ¿do you understand? Victor, annoyed, but conscious, nodded saying: understood, I will find the unfortunate snitch and make that damned bastard pay dearly for what he has done and continues to do, I can promise that.
