"Mama, we have to get rid of Valentina."
Helena helped Daniela back on the bed, after bandaging the spot in her hand she sliced out.
She sat beside her, and smiled.
"What's funny Mama? I don't think you heard me clearly. Without that bitch in the picture, everything was going smoothly. There were no hiccups. She returned with her snoopy nose, and now I'm at risk of being exposed."
Helena held her daughter's hands firmly into her own.
"Do you think I don't know she must be handled?"
"Then what are we waiting for?"
"Patience, my princess. It takes patience to achieve a flawless plan."
Daniela hissed impatiently. "Patience? Luciano will be back soon. I'm not only at risk of my disease being exposed as fake, but imagine she tells him I helped her escape? I'm afraid Mama. You know Luciano as well as I do. He hates with as equal measure as he loves. I don't think I'll be able to live if he hates me. I love him Mama," she cried out.
