A Night with Her Cruel Mate

"You agreed?" Consuela asked Julia, suppressing her anger.

Julia shyly nodded. Afraid that Consuela would scold her for her stupidity, she quickly explained, "I made it clear to her that once I gave her the money, we would break ties with one another. And she agreed to the deal.
