Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

Rouco Group building, President’s office.

Adán Rouco had just had the splint removed from his arm today at the hospital after being immobilized for a month, and as soon as Santino Yepes came in, he saw his right hand reaching for a drop of folders and immediately reached for it.

“Boss, your right hand needs to recover for a few more months, the doctor explained to me that it takes a hundred days to break a bone, so be careful for the next few months.”

Since Santino Yepes did not mention it, Adán Rouco suddenly realized that Estrella Berrocal had not visited him even once in the last month.

Was I really going to die with him?

“Is Estrella Berrocal still working at Yahua Film and Television Company?”

Santino Yepes was stunned by the cold question: “I think … I think so.”

When Adán Rouco’s face sank, Santino Yepes said, “This month, although Miss Estrella did not visit you in the hospital, I often went to La Villa Rouco to see Paulita. I went back to La Villa Rouco to pick up your change of clothes and several times I met Miss Estrella, who … asked me to say hello. Miss Estrella still cares about you”.

Adán Rouco grunted, clearly unconvinced.

Say hello? If she could have asked Santino Yepes to say hello, she would have gone to the hospital to see him herself!

Santino Yepes remembered a business matter, but it was a matter that caused him even more headaches.

“Boss, Lucrecia Javier wants to see you, I told her you were busy, but she insists.”

For the past month, Lucrecia Javier had been going around the hospital with great diligence, but the woman was so noisy that even Santino Yepes was annoyed.

Adán Rouco pursed his lips: “Send him in.

Lucrecia Javier, it was time to take care of her.

When Santino Yepes made Lucrecia Javier enter, she ran towards Adán Rouco at his heels and grabbed his arm, Adán Rouco took it away with a cold face, his voice indifferent, “You better have something important”.

Lucrecia Javier, not at all put off by his coldness, handed Adán Rouco the test sheet she was holding and said with a red face, feigning shyness, “Adán, I’m pregnant, you have to take responsibility for her!”

Adam Rouco’s dark eyes narrowed dangerously and he looked at the test sheet with cold eyes.

Seeing that he was silent and that his face showed no emotion, only a terrible silence, Lucrecia Javier frowned and made a pout: “You don’t believe me? The doctor said I was a month pregnant, I guess, it must have been that day at the hotel…”

The man’s voice chilled to the bone as he spoke, “Lucrecia Javier, are you taking my words as a joke?”

Lucrecia Javier was scared, but this was her only chance to turn her life around, if she missed this opportunity, she would not be able to court Adán Rouco again, so she boldly said, “I want to give you a son, I don’t want to take the pill, Adán, I don’t want a name, I just want to give you this son…”

“Lucrecia Javier, do you really think I don’t know what you have in mind?”

“Adam … I really just want to have this baby, I don’t want anything…”

Adán Rouco took the pen and, with a grand gesture of his hand, signed a check directly to him.

“One million dollars, that’s enough for you to go to the hospital to abort this baby!”.

Lucrecia Javier’s face turned red and green with anger: “Adán Rouco, am I worth a million dollars to you?”.

Adán Rouco dropped the pen he was holding and sneered, “Of course you’re not worth a million to me, I’d give you a hundred thousand more.”

“What do you think of me, I’ve given you my first time.”

“First time?” Adam Rouco’s venomous gaze examined her from head to toe. “Miss Lucrecia, how many men have you really told that it was your first time?”

“I … I …”

Lucrecia Javier felt so humiliated by Adán Rouco that she could not speak at all, so she sat down on the floor and blurted out: “Adán Rouco I tell you that I am not going to abort this baby! If you force me to do it, I will go to the press and denounce you! Your image as a good businessman will go down the drain.”

Lucrecia Javier’s words sounded childish and ridiculous to Adán Rouco’s ears.

The man’s dark eyes were as unconcerned as if he were reading a joke, a cold, bloodthirsty aura shone under his eyes, and his voice began calmly, “If you don’t want to abort this child, remove its womb.”

Lucrecia Javier’s face, with its delicate makeup, turned as white as paper.

He knew Adán Rouco was a businessman, but he had no idea he was so cold-blooded and ruthless!

“Adam Rouco, this is your son!”

Adán Rouco did not bother to talk to her and ordered Santino Yepes: “Take Miss Lucrecia to the hospital, if she has a baby in her womb, abort it, if not…”

Adán Rouco’s voice gave a slight lurch, startling Lucrecia Javier into stiffening.

If Adán Rouco found out that I had lied to him, would he come down on him?

“Miss Lucrecia, do you know what will happen if you lie to me?”.

Lucrecia Javier took a step back: “You, what are you doing, Adán Rouco, I was with you, I was with you for at least one night! You can’t be so mean to me.

One night as husband and wife?

Adán Rouco’s stomach turned when he heard those words.

But in his mind flashed a thought, and Adam Rouco suddenly stood up, bent his noble body, reached up and cupped Lucretia Javier’s chin, his dark eyes looking at her coldly and darkly. “If you’ve gone to so much trouble, shouldn’t I make it up to you for once?”

Lucrecia Javier’s eyes lit up with joy; had Adán Rouco come to his senses?

…

When Lucrecia Javier left, Santino Yepes asked: “Boss, if Lucrecia Javier’s belly spreads around, I’m afraid that … it will reach Miss Estrella’s ears”.

He wanted Lucretia Javier to spread the word around, preferably to the ears of the little woman!

He would like to see how long Estrella Berrocal would mess with him!

“Send someone to keep an eye on Lucretia Javier, and if she has a child in her womb, get rid of it secretly.”

But from the looks of that Lucretia Javier, it was mostly nonsense.

Santino Yepes nodded, “Okay, I’ll send someone to keep a close eye on her, but boss, Miss Estrella’s side…”

Adam Rouco’s brow furrowed: “I don’t have to have it!”.

The words sounded more like a wager to Santino Yepes’ ears.

…

After work, Santino Yepes dropped Adán Rouco off at his home, passing through the Azul region.

Santino Yepes looked in the rearview mirror and saw Adán Rouco looking out the window, his face condensed, wondering what he was thinking.

The Maybach was about to turn at the next intersection when Adán Rouco suddenly said, “Go to La Villa Berrocal”.

The Maybach stopped under a large tree not far from La Villa Berrocal.

Not far away, Estrella Berrocal was crouched on the ground feeding a stray dog.

The little stray dog was covered with white fur, but it was dirty.

Santino Yepes exclaims: “Boss, I didn’t realize that Miss Estrella was very affectionate”.

Adán Rouco grunted in disagreement.

… is she affectionate? You’re not going home to take care of Paulita, you’re here taking care of stray dogs.

Santino Yepes asked timidly, “Boss, are we going there?”.

Adán Rouco’s eyes shone with a dark and inscrutable gaze.

Why go there?Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

He did not get out of the car to take a look until Estrella Berrocal entered the villa and Adán Rouco casually ordered, “Go and fetch the stray dog.”

“Huh?”

Santino Yepes thought he had heard wrong, Adán Rouco had always had a cleanliness problem and he wanted a stray dog in the car?

“Are you deaf?”

Big Boss shouted, so Santino Yepes had to get out of the car and put the stray dog in the car.
