"For God's sake, I don't know anything about what happened on Mr. Jose's Nasviell plantation".
Huh..
Hector sighed violently. For a moment he was silent. Frown lines were clearly visible on his forehead, indicating the man was having a lot of thoughts.
"Until yesterday afternoon when I drove Maria shopping in the city. I saw you talking to Oscar and Osvaldo. I eavesdrop on the talk of those who call big bosses who have hired them through mama" Hector said softly and sounded very soft.
Jose distanced his body slightly when Hector called out to mama. Which means Lupe.
"I'm sorry sir. I've met my mother, to ask her to speak frankly to me. But my mom refused".
Hearing Hector's explanation, Jose rubbed his chin. Then the man ruffled his waist. At the moment the two are talking outside the warehouse right next to Jose's car.
Hector's face looks careless and wrong, Jose can see it clearly.
While the look on Jose's face warmed up not as cold and tense because it harbored anger like that, the third knew what Oscar and his friends were doing on his wife's Nasviell estate.
"I know you're honest and faced with a choice that confuses Hector. It is like eating the fruit of simalakama. I appreciate you bringing them to me right away, even though you know the risk is dragging your mama too. At least you kept your promise to be honest, Hector", Jose said sounding warm in Hector's ear.
"Now go back to Nasviell. My people will take care of the rest. And I remind you, Lupe still has to take responsibility for his actions in the eyes of the law. I promise to help him if he really repents, a form of appreciation for you who have been telling the truth to me and my wife" said Jose wisely.
I heard Hector's breath again. This time a breath of relief. The feeling is so plump.
Hector opened his hat with a slight bow. "Yes sir. Thank you for trusting me. Especially for mama, I can accept it because it cannot be denied mama is involved in this matter" he said resignedly.
After Hector and his men return to Nasviell, Jose returns to the old warehouse. Where Osvaldo and Juan were tied at the stake.
Seeing the arrival of Jose Osvaldo smiled triumphantly, because previously he had heard the sound of gunfire from outside that suspected Jose had finished off Hector.
"Now you are sure of my words. I never lied, Jose. Believe this. Hector deserves a shot like Oscar. They like to lie and twist facts. Same as Juan tuan–"
"You're the one who lies Osvaldo–"
"Mr-lord...."
"Dorr.."
At once Osvaldo's body fell. Fresh blood pooled on the white floor.***
That second Osvaldo also died following his friend Oscar. Juan's body shivered. It was only a matter of minutes that he watched two lives drift before him. Oscar and Osvaldo.
"You stay here until my people find out who paid you. Pray you are lucky!", Jose said with a cold face turning his body out of the room.
While Jose's men immediately rushed to clean Osvaldo's body and the man's blood.
The location of the building far from anywhere makes it easier for Jose to execute people who aim evil at him. Without having to worry the people in the hacienda know or have to deal with the various questions of the authorities if they hear the gun eruption.
Jose and Ellios are already outside.
"What should we do boss?"
"Ordered Adrian to follow Lupe's movements. I want to find out immediately who the big boss is they mean".
"Even though Hector is telling the truth, you still have to put people to watch over him. Lupe's mother and I knew Hector loved that woman very much. It was because of that affection that Hector finally followed Lupe's will to commit crimes against my grandfather first. I'm not gonna forget it. One of them is to remain vigilant even though he has been telling the truth".
Ellios nodded her head. "Yes sir. I understand".
Jose looked at the timepiece that was coiled around his arm.
"It's noon now. Delay all my work. My wife and I have to get to town to see Sebastian and Lizzy".
"Yes sir.."
