Celia laughed. “Sir, I think you‘re misinformed. Jose Milian has recently been declared competent by the court, and that‘s why my employee, my head chef, Jonas Milian, returned to work today. I don‘t know what you‘re going to do to solve your huge conundrum, but whatever you do, don‘t call here again.” Celia hung up.

Sergio called Jose to let him know the danger he was in at the hands of Trent if he didn‘t do anything to defend himself.

 

Jose answered the phone in an instant. “Jose Milian.”

 

“We don‘t know one another, but I‘ve got something very important to tell you.” “Who is this?”

 

“Who I am doesn‘t matter. What matters is what I have to say, so listen very carefully.” Jose kept quiet and listened.

 

“Since Trent Goodman couldn‘t do anything against you, he‘s planning to hire someone to make someone in your family love that person dearly and then destroy that relationship and make your loved one kill him or herself.”

 

“Oh, my God, who is this family member?”

 

“I can‘t tell you right now. All that I can tell you is that your family member is going to be contacted on the Internet.”

 

“On the Internet,” Jose repeated.

 

“That‘s right. I‘m going to give you the information as soon as I make sure that the person Trent will hire is not an Emadorian.”

 

“Ok.”

“It‘s going to take place within fifteen days, that‘s when it‘s going to start. In the

 

meantime, make sure to tell your brothers who are still single to ignore every single woman that contacts them on the Net.”

 

“I don‘t know who you are, but I thank you for this. I will warn Pablo,” Jose said and hung up.

 

Pablo was on the Internet talking to a couple of cybernetic friends. He was suffering from borderline-personality disorder and that‘s why he‘d had a lot of flings, but he hadn‘t had any serious relationships. As soon as a woman noticed something strange in Pablo‘s behavior, she would leave him. Suddenly, he received an anonymous email message. The message had no email address on the heading. It just had a body.

 

 

 

 

 

 

DEAR PABLO,

 

I KNOW YOU SHOULD DISREGARD MESSAGES FROM PEOPLE YOU DON‘T KNOW, BUT I HAVE TO WARN YOU…DON‘T PAY ATTENTION TO ANY WOMAN THAT TRIES TO CONTACT YOU ON THE INTERNET UNLESS IT‘S ONE OF YOUR SISTERS.
