Valencia

Karl was the one who had taken step towards Alexandro to hold him.

He was hurting. Alexandro was finally hurting, feeling the pain and tearing himself apart from the inside.

"Hurts doesn't it, Alexandro," I asked as I crouched down to his position. "It feels as if your insides are burning and bleeding at the same time." His eyes snapped to me as tears rolled down his cheeks falling to the ground.

"Valencia," Karl called my name in warning as if not to poke the bear. I just looked at him and smiled.

"Hurts to know that your wife helped in raping a man?" I saw him flinch at the words. "Ever thought about how much worse she could have done to you if she could do this to her own blood?"

"stop it!" Hilda screamed at the top of her lungs. Standing up I looked at her.

"Please stop it!" She screamed once again. "I get it okay. We all do we did so many wrong things and we are very sorry but please stop." She begged, and I just looked at her. Tilting my head to a side letting my hair drop I smiled.

"Do you think a sorry can take back all that you have done? A simple sorry can take back the hurt that all those people have suffered at your hand." I moved towards her stealthily seeing the tears in her eyes.

"Oh, now it hurts Hilda?" I entered her personal space and smirked at her. "Didn't it hurt when you were doing that to him?" My hand snapped towards her hair pulling them down painfully. Her neck arching with pain, eyes closed shut as she tried to get out of my grip with her hands over mine on her head.

"It hurts doesn't it but let me tell you he is hurting worse than you. Your vile act had destroyed his life just in a snap of a finger." I pulled on her hair as she cried out in pain. It was so beautiful to see her in pain. "Just because you wanted her to marry your brother!" I snapped at her face. Letting her go I moved towards Claire. Who was on her knees and her hands on the ground crying?

"Aww, Claire why are you crying now? Don't tell me you feel sorry because you surely hadn't when you had done all those things to him." With the tip of my finger, I raised her head seeing those precious tears. Wiping it away from one of the cheeks I just stared at her with a tilted head.

"you stole so much away from me that night?" I whispered to her as those tears welled eyes looked at me.

"Can you even think about how much I had been hurt because of one simple act of your obsession for him?" She sobbed and I just smiled. I wanted to laugh at karma. How the places have changed now? It was her crying and me smiling while once it was the vice a verse.

"It's just natural that now you pay for all you have sinned." Letting go of her head I stood straighter as Karl's eyes followed me. Moving towards one of the men who had come to the party I smiled at him to be greeted with the same.

"Joel, how are you now," I asked standing in front of him.

"Much better than I could have expected. I own a small business which is a lot when compared to the mere job of gardening I did here." Smiling at him locked my arm in his. All the eyes were on me besides Alexandro who couldn't stop crying and somewhere it pinched me in the heart that I was doing this to him. However, I had gone through the worst but after today we would be equals. He would be able to feel what it is like to betrayed by their own blood. He would understand what pain is and Hilda would understand what betrayal is.

"I want to tell you that it was all thanks to this family and its blindness that he was able to get there." I raised my glass high. "So let's give a praise to them." With arm in arm, I walked to where Hilda was as Claire sat there on her knees unable to lookup. She knew what was coming. I was going to bleed her dry of the sins that existed in her body leaving nothing behind.

"Hilda, do you know who gave that opportunity to Joel and why?" I asked as she stared at me with anger.

"I don't know and don't want to. Please stop and leave us alone. I beg you." Her words didn't faze me for even a moment. Did she know she was going to walk out of here being nothing but broken too?

"Ohhh, my dearest Hilda this is your right to know because somehow indirectly you were the one who paid him," I smirked at her.

"It came out of your pocket. Oops, that's really wrong you know." I took back my words as I looked at Karl who was watching me.

"It came from the company's pocket. All that money you got from my parents from blackmailing them. How much was it? Let me remember." Letting go of Joel's arm I put a finger to my head to show as if I was thinking.

"Oh yeah, five million dollars was the net worth that you have reaped out dry from my parents and all those bogus charities you donated to." I smiled looking at her. "Can you think about how much money we could have saved, Karl?" He didn't say anything. How could he when he was a fool too?

"See what a blind family I have." I laughed while looking at the rest of the people seeing a smile on everyone's face but not on my family.

"So coming back to the topic," I said turning towards Hilda. "Joel got a very good amount of money."

Turning to Joel. "Who paid you, Joel?"

"Ms. Claire did," his reply came.

"And how much was it?" Boy, I was so enjoying this.

"A fifty-thousand-dollar Ma'am." His answer had Hilda's eyes turn to him. The amount was really big for a small task.

"Oh, that's a very nice amount. Why don't you tell us why Claire had given you that much amount?" Moving around to where Claire was, I stood in front of her.

"Ms. Claire had wanted me to get her almost a small bottle full of a pregnant woman's urine." He told and I could hear the way he had stopped in between due to embarrassment. Alex's eyes turned up at hearing this.

"Can you repeat that again, Joel? I want everyone to hear that loud and clear." My words were loud and clear.

"She wanted me to get a pregnant woman urine for her." He said this time his voice not breaking. It was loud and clear like mine. I looked down at Claire in disgust.

"I got it for her and she paid me fifty thousand dollars in cash. She paid me an extra ten for bringing it earlier than expected." He added as I turned around to move towards Hilda. She had her back to me and I snaked my hand around her waist pulling her to my front making her jump.

"Did you know about that Hilda? Did you know that Claire had lied to you about that pregnancy?" I whispered in her ear. She stood there in shock because I knew. Letting go of her waist I turned her around placing hands on her shoulder. Pushing her I brought her to where Claire was.

"Look at your best friend Hilda. The woman who had lied about being pregnant. You had cared so much for that child, praised about how you were going to be an aunt and how beautiful the baby would be." She had been so happy that she would be going to be an aunt. Ecstatic was the word because she had wanted to see the baby of her baby brother. It wasn't in the plan.

"Remember how you had even named your ancestral house in her name because of it. The only thing of your parents you had to have you had given to her. The last locket of your mother you had given to her because you had loved that child that much." I reminded her of all she had done for that child that never existed.

"No longer parties turning off on your friend's circle. How you had become her servant just because you wanted the child. Everything you gave and done was for nothing but a lie. A big lie. She was never pregnant. Giving her so much power over you that you had done everything on a snap of her finger even let go of your rights over your parent's business for her but you knew all that right didn't you." I pulled her face towards me and looked at her.

"You knew that the baby was fake but yet you did all because you loved her, didn't you. It was all fake because you wanted Alexandro to believe that there really was a child. What a farce you produced?" I laughed in her face letting go of her face harshly. Moving towards Alexandro I sat back on my haunches and looked into his eyes.

"Is this what family is like? Is this what you deserved?" I asked as I looked in those blue eyes of his.

"Don't you see Alexandro you were the biggest fool in this all and you fell into their trap too easily? Tell me do you feel betrayed too like I had that time." I asked looking into those tearful eyes and seeing the pain. The same pain once I had suffered when my own blood had betrayed me. It was devastating it broke you and I would break him and his sister both when they would realize what Claire had done.

So, lost in my thoughts I didn't see it coming.

"You bitch!" someone shrieked making me fall on the ground. I didn't see it coming when I should have.

Claire's downfall is here and more is coming .
