Carlos comes home late

Back in the office, and it's 10:00 PM

Kazumi: Alright, enough. I'm going home

Carlos: No, I forbid it, we haven't found our deal yet

Kazumi: I'm not staying here until the sun goes up; I need some sleep

Carlos: I'm ordering you to stay

Kazumi: Order all you like; I'm going home

Carlos: I'll fire you

Kazumi: You can't fire me, only CJ or Miss Richelle can, and the only reason I'm here is because I was ordered to. Nobody likes working for you

KAzumi leaves

Carlos: I'm trying my best

Carlos leaves 30 minutes later and walks to his car, but as he tries to get in, someone punches him in the stomach before he can react

Carlos: WHAT DO YOU WANT

Guard 1: I want nothing, my boss on the other hand

The guard forces Carlos to his knees as a car drives to them, another guard gets out of the car and opens the backseat door, revealing Victoria

Victoria: Hello, Carlos

Carlos: Victoria, please, I can explain

Victoria: Explain what? That I no longer get reports from you, or that you're trying to steal deals from companies that belong to my family

Carlos: I have no choice Richelle knows everything, she knows I'm sending you data. If I don't do what she wants she'll fire me

Victoria: She won't, because if she does that she stops giving us information that she wants us to have

Carlos: You know

Victoria: Of course we know, we do the same to the spies that are in our companies

Carlos: Then you understand, right

Victoria: No, I don't because why didn't you come to me with this when you got the information

Carlos: Because they'll know if I tell you

Victoria: But you just did, so you're fucked anyway

Carlos: please

Victoria: Begging isn't gonna help you. We made you what you are, and yet you bite the hand that feeds you, for that you need to be punished

Victoria: Guys, you know what to do, just no hits on his face or other places that are easily visible

The two guards start beating Carlos up

Victoria: Learned your lesson

Carlos: Yes, please stop

Victoria: And what was the lesson

Carlos: i blong ot you and the Primeiro Comando da Capital

Victoria: Good, make sure Ariella doesn't notice your bruises. Oh, and here

She throws down a document

Victoria: In that document are some deals we're working on that we can lose without suffering greatly; steal one of them

Carlos: And what if Richelle asks where they come from

Victoria: That's your problem. I don't care what she does to you, because I can always do worse. Now hurry home, your wife is probably worried sick

The guards get in the car and drive away as Carlos slowly pulls himself up

Carlos: I'm screwed

Carlos finally arrives home an hour later and opens the door, where Ariella looks at him with anger once he enters the living room

Ariella: Do you have any idea how late it is? It's almost midnight

Carlos: I still had a lot to do at work

Ariella: And yet you don't even call. If Aiden the second hadn't told me, I would have thought you might have been in a car accident or something like that

Carlos: Please, Ariella, I don't have the energy for this conversation

Ariella: Oh, I'm sorry. Am I bothering you

Carlos: iIdon't mean it like that, and you know it

Ariella: No, I don't know. All I know is you're hiding something from me, so spit it out

Carlos: I'm not hiding anything from you

Ariella: Yes, you are. I'm not stupid

Carlos: It's the truth

Ariella: Is that so

Carlos: Yes

Ariella: Then enjoy the couch. I will not have a liar sleeping next to me, goodnight

Carlos: Right

Carlos: At least know she won't see the bruises

Ariella goes upstairs and sees light coming from your room, so she knocks on the door

Aiden the second: come in

She enters your room

Ariella: Not tired yet

Aiden the second: Not yet, I'll probably go to bed in about an hour

Ariella looks at her wedding ring

Aiden the second: i ssomething wrong

Ariella: Is the offer still on the table

Aiden the second: Of course it is, but as I said earlier, you have to be sure, because I'm not gonna stop once I've started

Ariella: I'm sure

She takes off her wedding ring and puts it on your nightstand

Ariella: I want to feel alive again, just for one night
