SCARLETT'S TEARS
MARK RUFARO

At seven in the morning London time.

"Give me some useful information soon, Caroline. I'm planning to buy a plantation that will be sold in the town of Champaign. My people have gone there" Mark said. He is currently taking Caroline on a flight to the town of Champaign.

"Are you really going to buy an estate there, Mark ? What is your real purpose?", asked Caroline curiously.

"You don't need to know what I'm going to do, just do your job as soon as you destroy Alejandro Mathias Rodriguez. Remember Caroline I've paid you very dearly. So don't try to run from me, my people will easily drag you in front of me" Mark said. He spoke his words firmly.

"No need to threaten me, Mark, your secret is on me", Caroline replied no less.

"Hahaaaa, that threat of yours doesn't apply to me. With a single snap of my finger.Your life, your career, I can instantly destroy."

"Don't try to threaten me again, you heard that" Hardik Mark who was behind the steering wheel of his sports car. Her hand gripped Caroline's neck firmly. Until Caroline coughed.

"Down !"..

Caroline, who was still coughing, as a result of her neck being firmly grasped by Mark, was forced to get out of the man's car.

Without caring for him, Mark drove his car at high speed.

The handsome man never cared about any woman including Caroline who often spent the night with him.

To him the women were cheap, unworthy to be friends.

Women who can be used only once to play, after being paid with money or even fulfilled their needs.

Mark Rufaro, the handsome man of success. He is one of the reliable business people who deserve a thumbs up. He is a competitor to Alejandro Mathias Rodriguez.

The company has been competing for the past five years. Mark took a grudge against Alejandro because he always won big tenders either inside London or outside.

The peak was one year ago. Mark's company was very confident of winning the tender with a very large budget but at the last minute it was Alejandro who won it. Because the committee knows the scandal that Mark Rufaro did.

Mark often scandals with the artist classy women until the model is on the rise. Even his scandal was several times raised to headlines in tabloids, but the man was not deterred either.

Currently, the woman who often accompanied him spent the night was indeed Caroline. But as usual, the relationship is not serious. Make Mark Caroline just a comfort woman fill his time.

Caroline rests her back on the first class seat of the plane that will take her to Paris. All the facilities he got on this flight were Mark's giving. Mark did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to realize the desire.

Caroline turned her eyes out the window.

"We will soon meet Alejandro Mathias. You don't know who you're dealing with".

"I'm gonna make you crawl back to beg me" Caroline said. While drinking wine to the toilet.

"I don't want my position replaced by that village woman. You must be mine Alejandro..!"

It was late afternoon, Alejandro and Javier returned to the hacienda.

"Alejandro, I went straight home because I had an appointment with Moza to pick him up at the airport tonight" Javier said.

"Javi, what is your relationship with my cousin?" asked Alejandro when Javier started the engine.

"We're still friends with Ale, but I don't know in the future either. Moza was a very pleasant interlocutor to me", Javier replied.

"I'm coming home now, you don't have to worry about me driving Moza here" Javier said, waving his hand at Alejandro, who also waved his hand.

Alejandro put his foot inside the house.

"Uncle's afternoon", he answered

"Do you need something you want to eat or drink this afternoon?", asked Ana respectfully.

"No aunty, I want to see my wife" Alejandro replied as he leaned up the arched stairs towards his room.

Ana and Paul smile at Alejandro so attentive to Scarlett. They know very well how Scarlett's life has been. And seeing Alejandro so loving, of course, makes Ana and Paul happy and happy.

Alejandro opened the room door handle. She saw Scarlett reading while watching the lighted television in front of the sofa.

Because she was seriously reading, Scarlett was unaware of her husband's presence.

Alejandro smiled, looking at his wife so seriously like that.

He hugged Scarlett's neck and kissed her head gently. Scarlett's fragrant floral hair filled Alejandro's sense of smell.

"When you go into the room, I don't know you're home" Scarlett turned to Alejandro behind her. Scarlett closed her reading book and put it on the table.

"Ehm, you're so serious about reading your book that your husband comes home you don't realize it" Alejandro protested

"I'm sorry Ale" Scarlett replied with a sweet smile.

"That's my favorite book right now, and it's almost over. I'm tired of not working so I spend my time reading" Scarlett said as she moved from her seat.

"How is my son today", Alejandro gently rubbed Scarlett's already slightly protruding belly.

"As usual your son is not fussy, I do not have difficulty every day because I do not experience morning sickness. Eat as usual".

"Didn't you want food or anything weird, hem?", asked Alejandro as he hugged Scarlett's body.

"Yet, maybe later I will crave and make it difficult for you. Right now I love sour drinks like lemon juice" Scarlett replied laughing.

"I would love to fulfill all our son's wishes" Alejandro whispered in Scarlett's ear.

"really ?"

"Of course, you're pregnant with our first child Scarlett. All my wishes will be fulfilled" Alejandro said with confidence.

"Well, now that I want to clean my body, you just continue reading your book".

"Yes Ale".

Alejandro entered the bathroom, while Scarlett prepared a casual dress for her husband.

Scarlett asked the waiter to bring them dinner into the room. He was lazy to eat in the dining room.

"I finally came to this city. There's no speciality at all. There's not even a fancy club I can go to here. It's really a boring life to have to live in a place like this" muttered Caroline who is currently in a most luxurious hotel in the city of Champaign.

"If it wasn't for the money and dignity I got from an Alejandro I wouldn't have chased him this far", caroline said as she smoked her cigarette deeply and steamed the smoke filled the room she currently occupied.

"I can't wait to meet you Alejandro, and your little rabbit. I can't wait to see your pet cry out for his fate".
