Chapter 61: Holding her tightly in his arms
“Twenty thousand dollars! No more!”
Dídac Zorita’s mother haggled with the trafficker who had kidnapped Estrella Berrocal, and it was clear that no price had been agreed upon.
The dealer shook his head, “Madam, is this girl worth 20. 000? At least 30. 000, if I’m not losing too much money at this point!”
Dídac Zorita’s burning eyes fixed on Estrella Berrocal in the inner room, fearing that the dealer would regret not selling, and he grabbed his mother’s hand and shook it impatiently, “Mom, look how pretty she is! Thirty thousand, that’s all! If you follow me, my daughter-in-law will be the prettiest and most beautiful of all!”
The old woman saw that Dídac Zorita could not take his eyes off Estrella Berrocal and was so fond of her that she gritted her teeth and finally closed the deal with the dealer for 30, 000.
As soon as the dealer left with the money, Dídac Zorita ran into the room, grabbed Estrella Berrocal’s white ankles and dragged her into his arms. If you dare touch me! I’ll bite my tongue right now”.
Didac Zorita was also shocked and immediately said: “No, no, no! I bought you for thirty thousand dollars! If you die, who am I going to have children with?”.
Estrella Berrocal, seeing that he was a little mute and looked at him suspiciously, swallowed saliva and coaxed him with fear: “Since you’ve paid for me, you’ll have to untie me first.”
“No! You girls outside try to escape every day! I can’t untie you! Not until you give me a baby! I won’t tie you up!”
Estrella Berrocal, with a burst of bad chills in her guts and a cold body, said in a trembling voice: “I… I’m not running, I’m very uncomfortable, can you, can you untie my rope?
Didac Zorita saw that her skin was tender, and that the skin on her hands and feet was torn by the ropes, and there was even some blood spread, so he became a little distressed, and his attitude relaxed a little when Didac Zorita’s mother came in from the outer room, “You can’t untie her! She just came in here and she’ll want to run away!”
Dídac Zorita immediately changed his attitude and smiled at Estrella Berrocal, “I can’t untie her tonight if she doesn’t sleep with me tonight!”
Estrella Berrocal fainted immediately from shock.
After almost three days without eating or drinking, combined with the shock and fear, it was normal for her to faint, and the old woman told Dídac Zorita: “Bring some buns and water, don’t let her starve to death. Don’t let her die, I’m waiting for her to have a fat grandchild”.
Estrella Berrocal was stunned, her mouth was filled with food and water, she was unconscious and the action was so abrupt that she choked and her face was white and red, scaring Dídac Zorita and her mother into thinking they had bought a sick woman.
Dídac Zorita tugged at his mother’s clothes, “Mother, is she going to die?”.
“No, no! She hasn’t eaten for days! You take care of her, I’ll go cook some rice porridge, you shouldn’t buy a sick woman!”
When the woman left, Dídac Zorita sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Estrella Berrocal’s beautiful face and white skin, stretched out his big, dark, rough hands and began to move against her. He began to tear at her clothes, breathing agitatedly and impatiently, “Let me kiss you! Just one kiss! Even touch her. Tonight I’m not going to fuck you, I’m just going to touch you!”
Estrella Berrocal’s stomach churned with nausea and she was about to vomit, “Get out of the way … don’t touch me!”
“You’re my girl already! Why can’t I touch you! You’ve got a big fat son to give me!”
Estrella Berrocal was too weak to resist, and when all was lost, she closed her eyes and resigned herself to the abuse, but just as Dídac Zorita was about to touch her, Dídac Zorita’s mother came running in from outside. “The police are coming from the village! Quick! Take her to our subway cellar!”
Didac Zorita, horrified by the sound of the police, rushed to drag Estrella Berrocal into the subway cellar!
Cold …
The cold attacked every cell of his body.
She tried to scream for help, but when she opened her mouth she found she couldn’t even make a full sound, just a hoarse, tiny scream, which was completely muffled in the closed cellar.
…
Outside, a few plainclothes policemen brought by Adán Rouco checked every house.
The police had learned that trafficked and abducted girls from outside the village were often traded.
Adán Rouco wears a long black trench coat with an open collar, a thin white handmade shirt underneath and long, strong legs wrapped in straight pants, his face is cold and stern.
The man walks away from his long legs and straight into a house to take a personal inventory.
Dídac Zorita’s house was at the head of the village and coincidentally it was his house that Adán Rouco entered.
Adán Rouco pulled a photograph of Estrella Berrocal out of his black money clip and asked in a cold, open voice: “Have you seen this girl?”.
“No, no…”
Adán Rouco’s eyes fixed coldly and sharply on Dídac Zorita, the man’s expression was rigid, his eyes were blinking, his behavior and speech were extremely unnatural.
Clearly, lying.
“Mr. Adam, no sign of Miss Estrella.”
Adam Rouco’s handsome brow furrowed slightly as he reminded the officers, “There must be a hold here, go reexamine it.”
Dídac Zorita, his forehead sweating with fear, stopped the policemen and said, with a smile on his face, “Comrade policeman, there is no bodega here!”
There is no winery here.
Adán Rouco’s dark eyes sank and he pushed Dídac Zorita aside and hurried into the small room hidden behind him. On the bed, there was a nylon rope that had not been hidden in time, in all probability to tie people up.
Adam Rouco paced the hut, testing the solidity of the floor with his feet, when his light and dark eyes suddenly glimpsed a glittering diamond ring.
It was the same diamond ring that Adán Rouco had placed on Estrella Berrocal’s hand when he had brought her back to the Rouco family.
The man’s dark eyes narrowed as he bent down to pick up the ring from the floor, curved his long fingers and tapped the floor, where there was a hollow board, and immediately bent down to open it.
Adán Rouco jumped down with deft hands and found Estrella Berrocal next to a large vat of wine.
His little face was flushed with an unnatural color, his breathing was weak and ragged, and he lay limp on the cold, damp ground.
Adam Rouco’s brow furrowed sharply.
He took the slender body in his arms, removed his trench coat and wrapped it tightly around her, patting her face in an attempt to revive her.
“Estrella Berrocal, wake up!”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Estrella Berrocal coughed twice, her dry, cracked, pale mouth stammered twice, trying to speak but unable to get any words out, she opened the slit in her vision and in a faint flash of light saw a handsome, familiar face …
Adán Rouco …
Was she dying? Why else would she be hallucinating? Dreaming that Adam Rouco was coming to her rescue?
