Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

When they arrived at the hospital, Estrella Berrocal was wheeled into the ward.

Dulcina Calvo tugged on the sleeve of Esteban Zaragosa’s white coat and said anxiously, “Tutor, you must let them keep Estrella’s baby!”

Esteban Zaragosa looked at Dulcina Calvo’s small hands and said coldly, “You’ve been hiding from me for so many days and now you’re willing to see me?”

“…”

Dulcina Calvo’s little hand unconsciously loosened, and when the last fingers loosened Esteban Zaragosa’s white robe, he took her little hand between his and stroked her little head with his other hand, saying in a deep voice, “Don’t worry, everything will be all right, I’ll go and see, you wait here obediently. ”

“Oh.”

Dulcina Calvo looked at Esteban Zaragosa’s tall, handsome back and calmed down for a moment.

With the demon Esteban around, Estrella and the baby should be fine.

Dulcina Calvo turned her eyes to Olivia Montes, who was sitting to the side, and frowned, “Miss Olivia, you are Estrella’s sister-in-law, why did you reach out and push Estrella, don’t you know that Estrella is pregnant? And if the baby…”

Olivia Montes scoffed and said, “Miss Dulcina, don’t talk nonsense, who in your eyes saw me push Estrella Berrocal? It was Estrella Berrocal who fell, and a sticker needs proof!”.

“You! It was you who hit Estrella and caused her to fall!”

Roberto Rouco frowned, holding his cane, and reprimanded: “Very good!

Olivia Montes bit her lip and said, “Dad, you heard what Miss Irene said, who dares to hurt Adán, I think it was Estrella Berrocal who wanted revenge on Adán for planning the accident! And now she’s begging for mercy! Dad, are you really going to leave this woman who killed Adán in La familia Rouco?”

“Not until I have investigated the matter! Right now, the most important thing is the child Estrella Berrocal is carrying in her womb, and whatever happens, it carries the blood of The Rouco family.”

…

Inside the room, Estrella Berrocal was leaning on the bed, looking sickly.

Several doctors left the room and Roberto Rouco approached and asked: “Doctor, how are the adults and the baby?

The doctor frowned: “The pregnant woman’s progesterone is already low, and although this time the baby was saved by the skin of her teeth, don’t let her receive any more stimuli, make sure she eats well and sleeps well, and that she keeps a good mood.”

Dulcina Calvo glared at Olivia Montes and walked straight into the room.

“Estrella, how are you, is your stomach still hurting?”.

Estrella Berrocal shook her head.

Dulcina Calvo, seeing her so weak, was a little upset for her: “You have Adán Rouco’s baby in your belly and yet they, the Rouco family, still suspect you and think you are Adán Rouco’s murderer, how can they do this! Olivia Montes was even worse, she hit you! Luckily it was a false alarm and you and the baby are fine…”

Dulcina Calvo gently touched Estrella Berrocal’s flat stomach.

Estrella Berrocal’s tears slipped silently from the corners of her eyes, but she smiled softly: “Adán really left me, Dulcina, nobody defends me anymore, you know? When I was being harassed by Irene Guillén and Olivia Montes, Adán was always the first to appear, but today he was absent …”

“Star …”

Estrella Berrocal’s forehead was bruised and bandaged with a piece of gauze, which made her whole face even paler and bloodless.

Dulcina Calvo hugged her tightly: “Estrella, don’t be sad, okay? We can’t stop thinking about Adán Rouco”.

Estrella Berrocal closed her eyes tightly, took a deep breath and said: “I don’t want to either, I want to get well and not think about Adán Rouco, but I can’t help it, I remember he said that if it was a boy his name would be Esteban Rouco and if it was a girl it would be Salbatora Rouco”. … Dulcina, Adán Rouco still doesn’t know if the baby I have in my belly is a boy or a girl, how do you think he can just leave?”

Dulcina Calvo hugged her and cried with her.

When Estrella Berrocal got tired of crying and fell asleep, Dulcina Calvo left the room with a runny nose.

Esteban Zaragosa was standing outside the room, his head bowed, his long fingers playing with a delicate lighter.

The click-click-click of the lighter and the flicker of the flame crept across his clean face.

Dulcina Calvo wiped tears from her eyes and called him, “Tutor.”

Esteban Zaragosa looked up, put the lighter in the pocket of his white coat and looked straight into her teary eyes, “How is Estrella Berrocal?”

“Estrella is asleep but in a bad mood, I’m afraid her body won’t hold out if she keeps this up.”

Esteban Zaragosa approached and stood in front of Dulcina Calvo, reaching up and gently wiping the tears from Dulcina Calvo’s face with his fingers, squeezing her head gently in his arms.

“Everything is going to be fine, don’t worry.”

Dulcina Calvo nodded sullenly, “Well, mentor, what do you think will happen to Estrella and the baby if Adán Rouco dies?”

“It won’t happen, Adán Rouco has a good life, not so much.”

Dulcina Calvo: “… Mentor, are you trying to comfort me?”

“Dulcina Calvo, don’t cry, it’s ugly”.

“Oh.”

Dulcina Calvo rubbed a stream of tears and snot on her white coat, and clutching her white coat she blew her nose vigorously.

“…”

Dulcina Calvo looked at Esteban Zaragosa as a witticism: “Mentor … sorry for spoiling your clothes”.

Esteban Zaragosa took off his white coat straight away and Dulcina Calvo unconsciously took a step back and looked at him suspiciously, thinking he was about to make a hospital animal scandal!

“Tutor, this is a hospital, not a good influence…”

Esteban Zaragosa gave him a cold sweeping look and tucked the white coat into his arms, “The clothes you have soiled, you take them home and wash them.”

The corner of Dulcina Calvo’s mouth twitched, she had thought wrong!

…

When Estrella Berrocal woke up from her nap, Roberto Rouco arrived at the hospital with Felipa.

Felipa had made chicken soup with goji berries, and lean porridge, “Third Young Grandmother, you must be hungry, eat something hot.”

It had been days since I had eaten well, and with all the fuss today, I was hungry, and I had to eat for the baby’s sake.

“Mmm.”

Roberto Rouco sat to one side and waited for Estrella Berrocal to eat the porridge and drink the chicken broth before asking a question.

“Your father, is he Stefano Berrocal?”

Estrella Berrocal nodded, “Yes.”

“I had someone look into it….. Stefano Berrocal jumped to his death because he was broke? Have you always held a grudge against the Rouco Group and Adam for that?”

Estrella Berrocal pulled her pale lips and said, “Yes, and I thought about taking revenge on the Rouco Group and even hurting Adán, but at that moment I was too confused to understand that the happiness of the living was the most important thing, and I discovered that I could not hate Adán at all, so I chose to leave and go to S. But I did not expect Adán to go to S. From that moment on, I knew I could ignore anything as long as I could be with Adán. Dad, I understand that you doubt me because of Irene Guillen’s words, but I have to explain myself, how am I going to harm the father of my child when I not only have Paulita with Adam, but also Adam in my womb?”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

Roberto Rouco sighed deeply, and after a long while, he finally nodded, but said, “I see that you and Olivia are not getting along well, and you are pregnant, and the doctor said you should take good care of your health, so I think it is better that Felipa accompany you to The Villas at Repulse Bay for a while, to avoid meeting Olivia, and then you can come back for Adam’s funeral, if you agree, that is the decision.”
