My body temperature heated the moment my eyes landed on her, and suddenly I was a raging volcano, ready to erupt. Barbara— my dearest cousin who not only had an affair with my ex-husband but also played a part in his scheme to ruin my life— was standing right beside me. I sorted out the pieces together. Of course, Eric sent her here, and it wasn't coincidental. They both had a devious plan in mind. “Morning Mr Sandoval. I’m here from EricCorps,” she spoke in an overbearing tone to Adonis and ignored me like I wasn’t even there. All the while, my hands were balled into fists at my sides. Watching her, my thirst for revenge numbed my throat as I recalled the night my whole life went tumbling down the hill. “Welcome Barbara…” Adonis paused as if waiting for her to complete the sentence.
