Chapter 5 Involved with the CEO and the Gangster

"I want to introduce you to my house" said Robert, getting up and holding his hand so that he could accompany him.

"Of course" replied Adele, continuing to stand still "But I would be comfortable if I were wearing clothes" she pointed with her eyes at the robe she was wearing.

"I prefer you without anything, but I will provide you with an outfit"

"The clothes could be yours" he replied with the intention of helping.

"Yes" agreed Robert taking a shirt, lending it to wear, with a pair of shorts he used to work out "I believe that at this time, your dress should be almost dry, as well as your underwear".

"By the way" he asked getting dressed "who was responsible for my change of clothes?".

"I had no other option" he replied, looking at her maliciously "but you can rest assured, I didn't do anything".

As they walked through the mansion, Adele paid attention to the exits she found on her way, as she had no intention of receiving a ride from Robert, nor of revealing that she was homeless, waiting for the opportunity to escape, fearing being seen with a man and killed. by Hector.

He showed every corner of the mansion with humility, he was a likeable heartthrob and Adele found it pleasant to be by his side, at least for a while.

Finding an exit with no security guards, near the pool area, imagining that it should be for the exclusive use of employees, thinking that I couldn't miss an opportunity like this.

"Robert" called him placing his hand on his shoulder, drawing attention to himself and making him stop "I'm a little tired, can we stop here?"

"Yes" he replied, passing his hand over her face and making a gesture of affection. "As you wish".

"Thank you" your house is really beautiful, we walked a lot, I'm a little thirsty, could I have a glass of water please?"

"Yes" he answered, patting his pockets and realizing that he hadn't picked up his cell phone during the morning "I think I'll have to go in person".

"Do you think it's okay if I sit here waiting for you?"

"If you stay away from the pool, that's fine with me."

"You can trust me, I want to live life"

Adele barely waited for Robert to turn around, walked slowly to the exit, checking that it was locked, looked for a key nearby, but didn't find it, then lifted the legs of the shorts that Robert had lent her, getting ready to climb the wall.

Adele was quickly on top of the wall, hoping not to be monitored, nor found by a neighbor, aware that she would be arrested if that happened. She knew she wasn't a prisoner, but she'd rather run than give satisfaction.

She quickly jumped off the wall, falling rolling over the bushes, but seeing herself outside the mansion, fixed the hair that was over her eyes and ran, sometimes stumbling over the huge slipper she had taken from Robert.

Adele had physical aptitude, she was used to doing routine exercises, managing to run until she disappeared, heading to the first store she saw, a small thrift store at the end of the street, where she bought a dress, big, but no bigger than Robert's clothes that wore, a hat with wide brims to try to hide his face from some paparazzo and a sandal that fit on his foot.

She felt her heart racing and her body driven by adrenaline, asking to use the bathroom when she noticed that some security guards were looking for her, stalling until she heard no more movement, being able to proceed to the subway.

Adele observed that people did not recognize her, with the simple clothes she wore and she liked the anonymity, heading to the center of the city, as there is a luxurious hotel, which she was used to staying, when she had to travel early.

Robert was devastated by the way Adele left, deducing that he was in some kind of mess, convinced that he had to protect and help her.

Deciding to find it, but thinking it would be difficult without a last name, opening the chest of drawers to get the documents, with the car key and heading to the same place where he met her, he noticed that the wallet was different, opening it to check and finding the note that said:

"Dear Robert, thank you for saving me last night, I'll never forget it, I borrowed a hundred dollars, I promise I'll pay it back one day. Signed Adele Gold".

"Gold" her last name echoed in his mind, quickly picking up his cell phone to search on social networks, being surprised by the result, Adele was a famous model and known around the world, rumors said that she had a relationship with a dangerous gangster, reading comments who speculated a betrayal, rejoicing.

Robert, did not know how to express what he felt, but he was relieved, realizing that finding Adele would not be a problem, wishing for the day when he could touch her again.

Adele spent the rest of the day and night at a luxury hotel downtown. She had decided to accept a job that she once denied, traveling to other countries, the morning of the other day, saddened by not revealing the surprise to Heitor, fearing the future she would face, but finding strength in the transformation that life brought within her.

Adele sank with her head on the plane seat, in order to rest a little, while she reflected on what life would be like with the change she would live, she had planned to go through everything next to Heitor, but now that she had received the opportunity to continue living , was willing to face the process that she would live alone and far from the city and everything that reminded of Heitor, wishing never to see him again.

The plane made an unexpected pause, then Adele was startled by a strong knock on the window, opening her eyes with a strong palpitation in her heart, not believing that Hector had stopped the plane and was waiting for her outside, putting his hand in the head with the intention of disguising that it was a reason that prevented the plane from taking off.

Adele didn't want to get off, but thought it best to do so due to the hustle and bustle in the place, apologizing to the passengers as she hurriedly left the plane.

Adele knew that Heitor couldn't expose himself, he was a criminal wanted by the government and also by other drug dealers, aware that he couldn't stay for long in an open place like that.

She was angry, her will was to at least try to attack him, she walked towards him furiously, but slowed down, realizing that things could get worse, having the feeling that she would faint when she saw Robert coming towards her, with an army of of men.

Adele was trembling thinking that if Robert revealed the night they had together, probably a war could break out between Hector and him, certain that he would die.
