When Drew rejects Clemencia, she moves on to her son, controlling and sleeping with him, remaining in power. I think by controlling his son, he wants to show Drew that he controls him. Drew was the only thing she wanted, in fact she wanted to be with him but he said he wouldn't leave his wife. One thing to note is that he sleeps with people whose relationship, when out in the open, could hurt someone and those who are Mexican, he doesn't consider "potential lovers". Drew's affair would hurt his wife, and Drew's son's affair would hurt Drew. Clemencia becomes like “La Malinche” who is always “guilty of treason” (Wyatt). She may not directly betray anyone, but she is the reason for the betrayal. She wants others to feel what she felt when her mother cheated on her for someone of a different background
