Chapter 238: Adán Rouco must die
Paulita had been picked up last night by someone sent by Roberto Rouco to take her back to La familia Rouco, Roberto Rouco’s reason was that Paulita could not be allowed to disturb Estrella Berrocal’s pregnancy.
This, by all accounts, must have been an acceptance of Estrella Berrocal, even if Roberto Rouco’s attitude towards her remained somewhat cold and harsh.
But Estrella Berrocal hopes to get along well with Roberto Rouco in the future.
After breakfast, Adán Rouco had to go to the office and Estrella Berrocal left him in the courtyard as usual.
“Don’t settle for food, if you don’t want it, in a few days I’ll have an aunt come and prepare it for you.”
“Go to work, I’m not going to settle for blind lunch.”
Adán Rouco said, “I’ll be back tonight to check it out.”
Estrella Berrocal blushed and pushed him towards the car, Adán Rouco leaned over slightly and tapped her cheek with his finger, Estrella Berrocal’s hot little face came up to his thin lips and kissed him carelessly.
“Can you come back soon tonight?”.
Adán Rouco raised an eyebrow, “What, do you have a surprise for me?”
“Well … keep it a secret for now.”
He had said he didn’t celebrate foreign holidays, so he must have forgotten it was Christmas and his birthday.
But it didn’t matter, she would remind him.
Adán Rouco looked at her feigned mystery and his heart shuddered as his large hands encircled her waist and embraced her, kissing her deeply.
The man’s cool, fresh breath assaulted her mouth, almost overwhelming her.
The kiss softened her in his arms until he released her and she gently pushed him away saying, “Remember, be sure to come back soon.”
Adán Rouco curved his lips and tilted his handsome chin as he turned and climbed into his car.
Estrella Berrocal watched the black Spyker leave the yard until it turned, sweetly, and entered the house.
…
The road was jammed today, but Adán Rouco was in a good mood.
On the car radio the cheerful voice of the presenter sounded.
“Time flies, the annual Christmas season is upon us again, the streets are full of old people in red Christmas clothes, the festive mood is strong and deserves some loving interaction, I wonder what good news will happen today on Christmas Day. Let’s go for our first listener in …”
Adam Rouco’s thin lips curled up, he was eager to know what his little wife would give him for his birthday tonight.
The phone rang.
Without looking at the caller ID, Adán Rouco said into his Bluetooth headset, “Hello, who’s this?”
“It’s me.”
Analena Lozada?
Adán Rouco frowned slightly, “Annalena Lozada?”.
“Adán Rouco, there is something I want to tell you, something very important. If you still have a pang of guilt in your heart about Analena Lozada back then, come to Pico del Teide”.
Adán Rouco’s brow furrowed further: “Why Pico del Teide?”.
“Because, back then, you and Analena Lozada and Jonathan Tasis, the best of friendships, were framed on Pico del Teide, weren’t you?”.
Adán Rouco’s look deepened: “You are not Analena Lozada, who the hell are you?
“You come to Pico del Teide and I tell you everything”.
Analena Lozada, for her part, hung up the phone and took a photograph out of her pocket.
In the photo, Adán Rouco and Jonathan Tasis were standing on either side of Analena Lozada, the three of them on good terms, hooking shoulders without any discomfort because Analena Lozada was a woman, and in the background of this photo, the morning sun on Pico del Teide, where they were waiting to see the most beautiful sunrise on Pico del Teide.
This photograph, she found on her sister’s dresser when she returned to her sister’s old house.
The timing of this photo turned out to be a month before her sister’s accident.
He gently caressed Analena Lozada’s face in the photograph and murmured, “Sister, was I right to do this, or not?”
Today, Adán Rouco was sure to die.
But she, however, did not seem to get the pleasure she thought.
He lifted his teary eyes and stood in the phone booth, taking in the festive Christmas atmosphere, but without any sense of joy.
Had his plan not gone awry, Adán Rouco’s car would be sinking into the sea with him in no time.
…
Film and television company Yahua building, president’s office.
Jonathan Tasis looked at the phone in the clear plastic bag, suspicion creeping into his eyes, and ordered his assistant, “Pull all communications from this phone.”
Tulio Moralez picked up the phone and nodded, “Yes, President Jonathan.”
“And have them send you a new phone.”
Tulio Moralez froze, “Uh … is that for you or for…?”
“It’s going to be a female model.”
Jonathan Tasis thought, Analena Lozada this phone is white, so just buy her another white one, “White it is”.
“Okay.”
When Tulio Moralez left, Jonathan Tasis called the Villas del Condado Azul landline again.
There was no response.
Annalena was out?
When Tulio Moralez brought the new phone, Jonathan Tasis said, “Send someone to get Analena.”
“Ah…?”
Why send someone to Miss Analena when this is fine?
Jonathan Tasis was restless, very restless, perhaps because Analena Lozada had been away from him for ten years, she was not in Villas del Condado Azul, she had no cell phone, where could she go?
Jonathan Tasis was inexplicably restless.
“I asked you to send someone to find out, what’s the problem?”.
Seeing Jonathan Tasis’s face grow cold, Tulio Moralez’s heart skipped a beat and he hastened to ask, “I … was going to ask, where exactly to look?”
“Send someone around Villas del Condado Azul to check it out, otherwise look all over town.”
“Yes, President Jonathan, I will send someone around the city to search immediately!”.
Tulio Moralez thought to himself, “This is too much, Miss Analena may have gone for a walk or something and President Jonathan has to send a search party all over town.”
Half an hour later, the men sent by Tulio Moralez located Analena Lozada in front of a bridal store in the center of town.
Jonathan Tasis immediately went to the front of the bridal store and waited for him on a bench near Analena Lozada.
When the man got out of the car and saw her sitting coldly on the bench, he reached over with his long legs and took her tightly in his arms.
“Analena.
Analena Lozada had some difficulty breathing as she was hugged so tightly.
“Jonathan Tasis…?”
He didn’t understand why he was so nervous, had he already found out that she had dealt with Adán Rouco?
Only to hear the man begin softly in her ear, “I’m too afraid, I’m afraid you’ll leave me again, Analena, don’t leave me again, and don’t make me worry.”
“I … I just went out to have a look, you, you, you don’t have to be nervous.”
Jonathan Tasis let out a long sigh of relief, his dark eyes fixed firmly on her as he said, word for word, “Yes, I admit, I made too much noise, but the aftermath of my loss and recovery was too great.”
She looked at him, her eyes slightly heated.
Jonathan Tasis saw that she was scantily clad, a snow white collar exposed to the cold air, he removed the black scarf from his own neck and placed it around her neck, “It’s cold outside, why are you outside with so little clothing?”
She said nothing, her eyes, however, filled with tears.
“Why are you crying, who bullied you? You tell me, I won’t let it go.”
“Jonathan Tasis, will you stop being so nice to me?”
What if one day he discovers that she is not his Analena at all …
And if one day he discovers that she is nothing like his Analena Lozada, that she is a woman with a heart of gold …
Suddenly he wanted to tell her that she was not Analena Lozada, she was Eleanora Lozada.
Somehow, just by spending this short time with Jonathan Tasis, Eleanora Lozada experienced something she had never felt before.
He couldn’t tell if it was because of Jonathan Tasis’s deep love for his sister or because of her growing heart for him …
Or maybe, she was now, slowly losing herself, living like her sister.
Jonathan Tasis reached out to wipe away her tears and said in a soft, muted voice, “Why won’t you let me be nice to you, Analena? If I could, I’d give you the best of all the world. You don’t need to have any psychological burden, you can’t have anything, you can’t do anything, just be good and stay by my side, whatever you want, I’ll give it to you.”
What woman in the world could resist a man with such a deep love?
Eleanora Lozada is also a commoner.
Jonathan Tasis saw the little woman in front of him, her eyes red-rimmed with tears, and asked her lovingly, “Now can you tell me why you are sitting here alone today?”
“I …”
Eleanora Lozada couldn’t come up with a reason right away, and with a blink of her eyes, she swept a Santa Claus coming this way with a flyer and said, “It’s Christmas and I wanted to go for a walk.”
The reason, impeccable.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Jonathan Tasis lost his smile and said, “I had forgotten, such an important party.”
Jonathan Tasis looked at the bridal store not far from her, the corners of his mouth curved up and he said, “Tulio Moralez said you were in front of the window of this bridal store looking at wedding dresses when he found you, which one did you fancy?”
“… I was casually looking at the design of the wedding dress and no, I didn’t think much of anything else.”
Jonathan Tasis’ look became even more intriguing as he saw her explanation, “Anything else? Do you want to marry me in a wedding dress?”
“I… no… I was actually just looking at the designs…”
“Analena, you know there’s a word, the more you describe it, the darker it gets, and you are now.”
Eleanora Lozada was embarrassed: “…”
Jonathan Tasis took her by the hand and walked toward the bridal store.
Eleanora Lozada froze: “What are you doing?”.
“Shopping for a wedding dress”.
When they arrived, there were several rows of expensive wedding dresses in front of Eleanora Lozada, and Jonathan Tasis stood behind her, leaned in, and asked in her ear, “Which one do you like?”
Eleanora Lozada did not want to try it on and deliberately said: “… I don’t like any of them”.
As a result, Jonathan Tasis grimaced and appeared to blame the sales clerk, “Mrs. Tasis doesn’t like any of them, the wedding dresses in your store, are they that bad?”
The store manager and the sales clerk shuddered.
The sales clerk smiled and said, “Mrs. Tasis, can you take another look? If you don’t like any of them, tell me what you like and we’ll make you a new one.”
Eleanora Lozada was quick to say, “No, just … just that one.”
Eleanora Lozada pointed to one of the simple, elegant pieces, turned to Jonathan Tasis and asked, “What do you think of that one?”
Jonathan Tasis smiled slightly, his gaze was affectionate, “I like everything Analena chooses.”
“…”
Eleanora Lozada blushed.
The store manager asked, “Mrs. Tasis, would you like to try them on then?”
Jonathan Tasis was eager to see what she would look like in her wedding dress, “Go Ahead.”
Eleanora Lozada followed the store manager into the fitting room.
