Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

“I’m not, how could I be in love with Adán Rouco, you’re thinking too much.”

Jonathan Tasis stared at her slightly troubled look and chuckled lightly, “I thought you brought the bracelet yesterday on purpose to test Adam Rouco’s feelings.”

Estrella Berrocal swallowed saliva and pursed her lips. “Didn’t you say that romancing Adan Rouco and gaining his trust was the fastest and most effective way to get back at him? But the fact that I put this bracelet on my hand last night and he reacted so much means that the person he really cares about in his heart, Analena Lozada, has been there for so long that I don’t think Adan Rouco falls in love with me at all…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Jonathan Tasis fixed her with a critical look, “Star, you’re not getting cold feet, are you? We’ve been in the same boat for a long time since this whole thing started, and if you get off in the middle of it, the ship, it’s going to capsize.”

Estrella Berrocal’s brow furrowed, and her watery eyes glared at him, “Jonathan Tasis, are you threatening me?”

“Of course I’m not threatening you, I’m just afraid that you will fall in love with Adam Rouco, our plan has gone well before, the fact that you escaped to the Beach Island and he went after you risking his own life is proof that he already has you in mind, the fact that we used Lucrecia Javier last time so he felt guilty about you for that, because of that guilt he will only trust you more, you have been doing a good job, so good that …”

Jonathan Tasis leaned close to her and spoke softly, “So good, I was always under the illusion that you were faking it.”

Estrella Berrocal pressed her palms together and took a deep breath, “Jonathan Tasis, I have two questions to ask you.”

“Question.

“Did Adam Rouco … really do it with Lucretia Javier?”

Jonathan Tasis looked at her meaningfully and curved his lips. “Star, you ask a question like that and I really get the impression that you’re jealous. But, since you asked, I’ll tell you, do you think Adam Rouco can really restrain himself when a man and a woman are in the same room together?”

Under Estrella Berrocal’s eyes, a hint of discouragement crept in.

“Disappointment? It’s my fault too, I didn’t think it through, I should have let Adam Rouco make a mistake…”

Estrella Berrocal did not seem to want to hear more and interrupted him to ask: “Secondly, were you the one who sent someone to beat up Adán Rouco on the way to the RegistroCivil that night? answer me honestly”.

“What good would it do me if I sent someone to run over Adán Rouco’s car and he died? I don’t mind telling you that I just want to torture Adam Rouco slowly, and I won’t have much fun if he’s dead.”

Estrella Berrocal gave him a half-hearted look and Jonathan Tasis said amused, “You don’t trust me that much? We are partners, you should trust me above all, right?”.

“Chairman Jonathan, I’ve already asked all my questions, so if you have nothing else to do, I’ll get back to work.”

She had just turned around when Jonathan Tasis, behind her, suddenly called out to her in a deep voice, “Wait.”

“What else is wrong with President Jonathan?”.

“The Rouco Group has been working on a smart chip lately, I think they have it almost finished, and now that Adam Rouco trusts you so much, it shouldn’t be a problem for you to steal that smart chip before they launch it, should it?”

Estrella Berrocal’s heart skipped a beat: “You’re asking me to steal that chip, Jonathan Tasis, it’s illegal, if Adán Rouco knows about it…”

“Are you afraid of being held responsible for stealing the chip, or are you afraid that if Adam Rouco finds out, it will break his heart?”

Estrella Berrocal lowered her teary eyes to hide the emotions beneath them and said in silent analysis, “What would I do if I stole that chip? What effect would it have on the Rouco Group? I would only lose Adam Rouco’s trust in me if I frightened him. …”

“If you steal the chip, I have a way to make the Rouco Group lose a lot of money this time, this chip has a lot to do with their market share this year and the following years, if they fail this time, they will lose a lot of money. And now that the opportunity has come, can’t you bear to hurt Adam Rouco?”

“I just think it’s better not to act rashly when you’re not sure of anything.”

“If you want the Rouco Group to lose even more, make an effort and steal from Adán Rouco’s computer his financial statements and his production and marketing strategy plan. ”

Estrella Berrocal’s heartbeat stopped abruptly.

She stood there, silent for a long time while Jonathan Tasis fanned the flames in her ear. “Estrella, think about how badly your father died, if it wasn’t for Adam Rouco’s cold blood, right now you would be enjoying your life with your father, you wouldn’t have had to go to a surrogate womb, you wouldn’t have had to submit to an enemy, but if Adam Rouco had had a shred of humanity in the first place, your father wouldn’t have thrown himself off a building…”

“Stop saying that!”

Estrella Berrocal looked up and shooed him harshly, and as the words left her mouth, knowing her outburst, she let out a sigh and said, “I’m sorry I lost my temper.”

“You don’t have to apologize to me, I was afraid you had hooked up with Adam Rouco and had real feelings for him, if you don’t want to, forget it, I just think you are sorry for your dead father, I wouldn’t know how sad he would be if he knew you were with the man who led him to his death.”

Estrella Berrocal’s long fingers laced into the soft palm of her hand and she said coolly, “Let me think about it, after all, even if I wanted to steal it, it wouldn’t be so easy, Adán Rouco, although he trusts me, never talks to me about the business, and I have to think what I can do to hide it from him. ”

“That’s good, Estrella, I have to remind you that even if you want to give up now, the paper won’t cover the fire, Adam Rouco is so cunning that one day he will know that you betrayed him, and when that happens, even if you did nothing to harm him, he won’t let you go. Since you lured him to Beach Island, and even made him almost lose his life on Beach Island, do you think he will forgive you when he finds out the truth?”

Estrella Berrocal turned her back on him, holding back tears from her eyes, and said between clenched teeth, “Don’t worry, I’m not going to give up my revenge, I haven’t forgotten a day of my father’s death.”NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

After saying that, he left the office.

After leaving the office, he gently closed his eyes, and two lines of clear coldness crept down.

…

Jonathan Tasis, in his office, picked up the picture frame on his desk, looked at the girl in the photo and smiled faintly.

“Analena, Adam Rouco will not live fast for long, soon he will be as cold and lonely as you sinking in the sea.”

I couldn’t wait to see how Adán Rouco would really react to being betrayed by the woman he loved and trusted the most.

…

Estrella Berrocal had been distracted all afternoon, and it was so cold in the office that by the end of the day she had started sneezing and sneezing.

When it was time to leave work, he saw the black Maybach again from afar.

When he got into the car, only Santino Yepes was in the driver’s seat and Adán Rouco was nowhere to be seen.

Santino Yepes smiled and explained, “The boss has a reception tonight and he wanted to take Miss Estrella with him, but he thought you wouldn’t like that kind of boring reception, so he asked me to come get her and take her home.”

Estrella Berrocal’s heart warmed, she really hated those social gatherings, surrounded by a bunch of people trying to be nice. “Please Santino, go pick up Paulita.”

“Okay.”
