Sad Tears 112

Could it be that there was something wrong with the juice she just drank? 

Five years ago, Romina had also fallen victim to something similar. The feeling of wishing for death over life was something she could never forget. 

If it hadn’t been for Jericho, she probably wouldn’t have survived that night… 

Her vision grew increasingly blurry, and her consciousness began to fade. 

“Clang-” 

She accidentally knocked over the glass beside her, catching Jericho’s attention. 

“What’s wrong with you?” 

Jericho’s voice was loud enough that even Joaquin, who was talking with guests nearby, turned to look. 

“I suddenly feel a bit unwell. I’m going to the restroom.” 

Romina quickly got up from her chair, trying her best to appear natural. 

Joaquin watched her leave, noticing something was off, but the guests kept talking to him, so he didn’t look at her again. 

When Romina reached the restroom on the first floor, she found that all the stalls were occupied. 

She hurried upstairs, only to discover that the door to her and Jericho’s room was locked from the inside. 

She instinctively swallowed, suddenly at a loss for what to do. 

This time, the dose didn’t seem to be very strong; her body’s reaction wasn’t as intense as last 

time. 

She desperately wanted to take a cold shower to calm herself down. 

Her gaze instinctively shifted to the room next door, where Joaquin’s door was half open.

After a moment’s hesitation, Romina finally pushed the door open and went inside. 

Nasir was on the phone. “Joaquin, I think I’ve been drugged. Send someone to take me away quickly.” 

“I’m in your room…” Nasir hadn’t finished speaking when he saw Romina. “Ms. Sandoval? What are you doing here?” 

Romina couldn’t care about anything else. She rushed in and headed straight for the bathroom, locking the door behind her. 

She intended to take a shower, but found she had no strength left in her body. 

She didn’t know how long she rested before she heard familiar footsteps outside the door. 

Then a man’s voice sounded. “What on earth is going on?” 

At that moment, inside the bedroom. 

After entering the room, Joaquin saw Nasir lying on the bed, his breathing unusually heavy. 

Seeing Joaquin come in, Nasir quickly sat up. “I don’t know either. Just get someone to take me home…” 

“My assistant has already arranged for a driver to wait for you at the back door. Go out through the garden.” Joaquin glanced around. “You said Romina was here just now? Where is she?” 

“In the bathroom.” 

Nasir pointed at the door, then stumbled out. 

Joaquin quickly unlocked the door and walked over to the bathroom. 

“Ms. Sandoval, Ms. Sandoval…” 

He knocked on the door several times, but there was no response from inside. 

The man quickly went to the drawer, took out a key, and returned to the bathroom, inserting the key into the lock. 

With a gentle twist, the door opened. 

When he saw the scene inside, his brows furrowed sharply.

Romina was leaning against the bathroom wall, her high heels off and placed beside her. Her face was flushed red, looking as if she were drunk, but not quite. 

She hadn’t drunk any alcohol at all today, so how could this be happening? 

The man quickly closed the bathroom door, reached out to take her arm, trying to help her 

1. up. 

Her burning body temperature made his brows knit tightly. 

He suddenly realized that her condition was almost identical to Nasir’s. 

At that moment, Romina’s phone started ringing incessantly. 

It was Jericho calling. 

She quickly pulled her arm out of the man’s grasp. “Don’t touch me…” 

Romina picked up her phone, intending to answer, but the man beside her pressed down on her hand. 

When their eyes met, he saw a strong, unmistakable desire in hers. 

He had never seen Romina like this before. 

Usually, she was cool and restrained, both gentle and resilient… 

But now, her eyes were filled with nothing but endless longing. 

After the call was hung up, the phone rang again. 

But the man’s hand remained pressed against the screen, preventing her from answering. 

Romina looked up at Joaquin, trying her best to stay calm. “Let go of me!” 

“Are you planning to let him come up and solve this for you?” 

The man’s eyes were filled with a chilling coldness. 

Romina instinctively swallowed and said, “We haven’t divorced yet. He’s still my husband in name. If I don’t go to him for help, who else can I turn to?” 

Joaquin’s hand, which was gripping her phone, tightened even more. 

Because of the excessive force, his fingertips were turning slightly white.

Joaquin quietly gazed at her brows and eyes, his breathing growing heavier. 

After the phone stopped ringing, it did not ring again.
