Fear is the word, as justice began her slow crawl to catch up with the murderer of Andre. Isabel was livid with rage and began her own vengeance mission, to destroy Harrieta, her former roommate for reporting to the police that she was involved in the murder of Andre. This is the essence of this snippet 57, more are available on the site map for second chance telenovela, otherwise called, El cuerpo del deseo.

Rebeca's joy was short-lived, as she was celebrating the disappearance of that 'trickster' (meaning Salvador). She marched on her dress, as a way of despising Salvador. (the same dress she wore the day Salvador exposed her at the restaurant, that he was married and had a son and walked out on Rebeca.

Isabel came into Rebeca's room to warn her of her extravagant spendings, which has become the talk of the town. She warned her not to follow the footsteps of her late mom, (Nina). Rebeca told her not to worry, as long as that man (Salvador), has left them in peace. Isabel surprised her by announcing that Salvador has re-appeared in the factory. Rebeca was depressed by this news.

Angela and Antonio came to chat with Salvador over his affair with Valeria and how she was hurting. Salvador told them that he knew, but they should let it be bygone. He told Angela not to meddle in the painful separation between him and Valeria. After Angela left, Salvador told Antonio in confidence to watch out that from now on, he should prepare himself for some dramatic surprises and unexpected news from his end.

The police summoned Isabel for further interrogation over the suspicious death of Andre Corona. She feigned anger, saying that she thought the same police authorities had told the press that it was natural suicide?

The police asked her if she knew Harrieta, her roommate. She disguised her surprise and fear with a bold-face, saying the lady was her co-worker in the factory, and also a girlfriend of her late husband. They told her that the lady had accused her of being a chief suspect in the murder case investigation into the death of Andre. Harieta had testified with evidence that Andre's death was neither suicide nor accidental, but was a calculated plan of conspiratorial murder.

Isabel angrily retorted that Harrieta was a crazy mistress of Andre and was lying against her in order to pin his death on her, out of sheer jealousy. She advised them not to listen to the ranting of an obsessed woman, whom she had caught several times in bed with Andre. The police threw another sudden question that almost caught her off-guard, they asked her if Salvador Sorenzo was known to her in any way...

She said Salvador was a driver and later became a director in the factory. When they asked her if she had any affair with him, she denied by lying that she had no romantic relationship with Salvador. They confronted her with the testimony of Harrieta that they were both lovers... at that point, she became agitated and demanded to speak no more except in the presence of her lawyer. The police managed to extract statement from her that no relationship existed between her and Salvador.

Rebeca was unsettled when Isabel did not return from the police station. Walter assured her that the police were doing a thorough job, and anybody suspected of complicity in Andre's death would be detained. Rebeca was angry because of his insinuation that Isabel was involved with the murder of Andre.

Isabel was later released but she was shivering with fear. She swore to take revenge on Harrieta. She also swore to throw out Walter after the dust settles, because of his insolence.
