The Casa Del Castaneda

Accidents in Sierra Norte.

Sebastian put down his cell phone, then got up from his seat of greatness. He walked towards the large window in the study. The man looked at the stretch of the olive plantation, which was clearly visible from where he stood.

Recalling the conversation with Tatiana a few moments ago, when the woman who is a friend and business partner asked for help to prevent Rafael from returning to Mexico.

“You have to help me, Sebastian!”

“Can't you also benefit if Rafael can't return to Mexico. Nothing can stand in the way of your relationship with Paloma.”

Thus the words of Tatiana who continued to ring and revolve in the mind of Sebastian.

“Ah.” The landlord owns thousands of acres of olive groves slowly. Angan Sebastian broke up instantly, when a slow knock was heard on the door of his study. “Log in!” the man shouted a little loudly.

“Master, we need your signature.” Martin poked his head from behind the door. He walked in with a stack of files that he was going to hand over to Sebastian.

For a while, Sebastian's attention was diverted to the plantation problem, until Tatiana contacted him again through a short message.

I'm waiting for your answer, now!

Meanwhile, Rafael has rented a modest hotel on the outskirts of Seville. He will stay there for a few days, until he finishes coordinating with Jose Alvaro Cardenas. The lawyer had already been chosen by her, to help settle the matter she was facing with Tatiana.

That night, Rafael made an appointment with Lawyer Cardenas at a modest restaurant, not far from the hotel where he was staying. Rafale explained the key points to the lawyer.

Jose Alvaro Cardenas is a bright and bright young lawyer. The man was able to capture the intent as well as what Rafael wanted, just through the brief conversation earlier. After getting the word agreed, two men of similar age shake hands and say goodbye to each other.

“See you tomorrow in court, Attorney Cardenas,” Rafael said before leaving the restaurant.

“See you tomorrow, Mr. Hernandez,” reply Jose while waving. He stepped out, but took a different direction to Rafael.

Rafael decided to return to the hotel immediately. He was going to contact Paloma. Although the man was convinced, that the wife must have been waiting for news from him. However, Raphael felt obliged to inform the woman who was still his rightful wife.

However, not to the feet of Rafael tracing the hotel parking lot, two men with strong stature suddenly ambushed him from the left and right sides. Incidentally, the atmosphere around there was already quiet. No one passed around him. The two unidentified men clutched the arm of Rafael, who was half-dead.

“Who are you?” sentak Rafael while trying to escape.

“Don't be chatty! Just follow us!” sahut one of the two men, while pulling the sturdy body of Rafael to follow him to a black SUV parked on the side of the road.

In the car, we were waiting for four other people. Their bodies were even much larger than the two men who were next to Rafael.

Rafael was very surprised and did not have time to think of a way to fight. However, the Mexican man did not want to resign easily. His instincts say that he is in danger right now. That's why he had to think fast.

Despite being outnumbered, Raphael continued to rebel. He attempted to release the large tall man's handcuff next to him by twisting his body, then flung a kick towards the man's shin bone beside his right.

The man is in pain. Reflexes, he releases the handles so that Rafael's hands can move freely. Feeling that he had a golden opportunity, Rafael immediately thrust out a powerful punch at the man on the left.

A powerful blow landed on the man on the left of Rafael, until a crack in the nose was heard. The man staggered, then fell to his knees not far from Rogelio's adopted son standing.

Seeing that two of his friends had been knocked out, the four people in the car rushed down. They were trying to stop Rafael.

However, before that happened, Rafael immediately took a dagger. The sharp weapon was tucked in the waist of one of the men, which he had managed to knock off earlier.

However, one of the four foreign men remained reckless to go forward a few steps. He also tried to snatch the sharp weapon held tightly by Rafael.

However, Rafael moved nimble. He can dodge, even managed to injure the cheek of the stranger to tear and bleed.

The man with slightly shaggy hair, kicked the face that had been drenched in blood earlier until it fell backward.

Now there are three more people left. They are no longer calm and confident because they have more numbers, after a tremendous resistance from Rafael. They really did not think, that the handsome man who always looks dapper was able to fight.

“Who told you?” hiss Rafael, when one of the men tried to approach him, raised both hands.

“You don't need to know who told us. One thing you should know, that person wants you dead right now!” grin the big tall man in front of Rafael.

“How much did that guy pay you? I can give you double so you stop attacking me,” Rafael said.

The three people immediately stopped their steps. They fell silent and looked at each other, as if asking for their opinions.

Not long after, they turned their attention back to Rafael. “It's a shame, we have to reject that tempting offer. Loyalty to the big lord, being above everything else,” reject one of them.

Without warning, one person who was closest to Rafael immediately ambushed the Mexican man. It just so happened that Rafael was off guard, as his focus was on the man standing right before him. The man suddenly lunged at Rafael until he fell over. The dagger that became his weapon, was thrown several meters away from his body which was now lying helplessly on the ground.

Rafael was unable to resist, as the man occupied his stomach and began to beat him all out. The man beat Rafael's handsome face many times, so that Paloma's husband could smell the rancid smell of blood coming out of the nostrils and temples.

Raphael's vision became blurry, as more blood flowed over the eyelids. Samar, he saw two other people shrouding and carrying blows to the face, legs, stomach and head.

Rafael's ears immediately rang, when the pantofel shoes of one of the men had kicked the head to the left. Slowly, Rafael began to lose consciousness. He can no longer fight. His entire body was powerless, even just to move the pinky.

Rafael can't move. He was only able to resign, when one of the three men ran into the car, then came out carrying a large burlap sack. Meanwhile, the others lifted up Rafael's body. They put the man in the sack earlier.

The men then tied the sacks tightly.

Meanwhile, Rafael can still feel his body being lifted up and thrown into the trunk.

“Is he dead?” ask one of the three men.

“Let's just finish it off before dumping it into Sierra Norte,” replied another colleague.

After that, Rafael did not hear any more conversations, other than the roar of vehicles driving away from a simple hotel area in the suburbs.

The destination of these men was Sierra Norte. A rugged mountain range in the northern part of Seville Province. Meanwhile, Rafael tries to keep himself conscious, despite being in a tied sack.

Moments later, Rafael can feel the car he is riding in stopping. He also heard the sound of the trunk door opening. Rafael gasped, as the sack containing his body was pulled out and dropped violently, onto the rocky ground.

Rafael grimaced as he felt his ribs ache, as the helpless body was thrown so hard. Again, he could only step down when a few feet kicked his entire body nonstop. Pretending to be dead might be the most appropriate decision for them to stop bullying him.

However, Rafael's estimates are wrong. Instead of stopping, they lifted the sack earlier. Rafael, who was completely helpless, could only give up when they lifted the sack containing his body together, then swung it tightly.

“I'm sure, this time he must be dead. No living creature will be able to survive, after being thrown into a rock abyss below,” said one of the men, before throwing Rafael's body.
