Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

Adán Rouco’s eyes deepened.

Big Brother?

Estrella Berrocal sounded as if she was still thinking about the man who saved her life….

“Saving you and not keeping your name means people don’t want to keep you.”

Adán Rouco’s voice was cold and his handsome face sullen, Estrella Berrocal looked at him amused, “Adán, you don’t…. think you’re jealous, do you?”

Estrella Berrocal brushed her teeth and Adán Rouco lifted her across the room and out of the bathroom.

Adán Rouco hummed under his breath and said without fuss, “What am I jealous of?”.

“Jealous of the guy who saved my life, if that guy had left his name at the time, maybe I would have had a relationship with him going.”

Adán Rouco was not impressed: “People saved you only out of humanitarianism, they should not see you and they are afraid that you will persecute them”.

“…”

Estrella Berrocal brushed her lips, she wasn’t stunningly beautiful, but at least she was pretty, why scare people away?

“If I’m so unattractive, how come you like me?”

“I didn’t see it at the time, and by the time I saw it, it was too late to return it.”

“…”

It was not a kind word, much less a sentimental one, but to Estrella Berrocal’s ears it sounded surprisingly pleasant.

Is not the best love that which is blind and that which is stupid?

Estrella Berrocal leaned into his arms, remembering the fire ten years ago, and said, “If it hadn’t been for that lifeguard back then, I would have burned to death, much less met you. Every now and then I fantasize that someday, when I meet you, I will thank you properly.”

Adán Rouco asks, “How did the fire come about?”

“At that time, I was only fourteen years old. At that time, Doria Guillén was already married to my father, and in those days, my father was on a business trip, and Doria Guillén was the only adult in the house, and the original maid had gone home to see her partner. I was then young and had few eyes, and Doria Guillén took Irene Doria Guillén took Irene Guillén on an outing, and I was home alone when somehow a fire broke out. Later, when I grew up and thought about it, I always felt that Doria Guillén was responsible for the fire. ”

There was something sad in Estrella Berrocal’s voice and Adán Rouco reached out to embrace her, kissed her on the forehead and said in a muffled voice: “It’s over, now you are Mrs. Rouco, no one will dare to intimidate you”.

Estrella Berrocal curved her lips and tilted her face to look at him: “And if you bully me?

“I can’t either.”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Adán Rouco took her small hand between his and placed it against his thin lips and kissed it.

Estrella Berrocal growled softly and said deliberately, “But Jerold Rouco will bully me.”

At first, Estrella Berrocal was joking, but to her surprise, Adán Rouco took it seriously.

The man wrinkled his brow slightly, looked at her deeply, and said quietly, “Star, I don’t want to tell you anything but I’m sorry, but I can’t seem to do anything but say I’m sorry, and I can only try to keep my own emotions in check and keep Jerold Rouco out, but I . …”

Before Adán Rouco could finish his sentence, Estrella Berrocal reached out her white fingers and covered his thin lips: “I was only joking, I don’t blame you, you didn’t want to get sick, even if Jerold Rouco bullied me, I would forgive him because, even if Jerold Rouco is bad, he is still part of you”. Dr. Esteban said that every person with split personality does not split into another for no reason, and that multiple personalities arise because when a person has no outlet for his inner grief and stress, he goes for the imaginary personality. There must be a reason for it, let’s find the root cause and dissolve it, shall we?”

Adán Rouco’s eyes were fixed on her.

The twenty-four-year-old girl in his arms seemed to have grown up and matured a lot all of a sudden.

Although Estrella Berrocal has gone through a family fallout, at twenty-four she is still a young woman with little experience in front of Adán Rouco.

He did not expect that one day the person who comforted and warmed him would be the girl who was far less qualified and knowledgeable than he was in every way.

Adam Rouco’s heart was so warm that the ice, which was so deep, seemed to melt.

“Star.

Adam Rouco’s forehead, resting gently against hers, sighed tersely, “Why didn’t you come to me earlier?”

Estrella Berrocal laughed and joked, “If it had been earlier, maybe you wouldn’t have seen me, too soon, when I didn’t know much, maybe you would have thought I was just a girl who hadn’t seen much of the world, and I wouldn’t have looked at you and thought you were just handsome looking but unlikely to have dealings with me. ”

“Uncle?” Adam Rouco’s lips curved, “Am I that old?”

Estrella Berrocal took a deep breath and reached up to hug his neck tightly, burying herself in the back of his neck and murmuring, “He hasn’t aged well at all, he’s very handsome.”

“Adam …”

Adán Rouco responded with indifference.

Estrella Berrocal says: “I love you”.

Adam Rouco wrapped his arms around her, stroking her back, brushing his chin against her soft hair and murmuring in response, “Mmm, I know.”

“A long time ago.”

Adán Rouco kissed her temple sideways, his voice tired and muted: “Me too”.

…

Rouco Group building, President’s office.

As soon as Adan Rouco arrived at the office, Santino Yepes reported: “Boss, I found out that Analena Lozada actually had a twin sister identical to Analena Lozada, and that the two did not live together as children, and that the Analena Lozada who is still alive is probably Analena Lozada’s twin sister, Eleanora Lozada. Lozada, is most likely Analena Lozada’s twin sister, Eleanora Lozada. ”

The long, thin hand of Adán Rouco caressing the twins, a bewilderment, analyzed: “The person who knows Analena Lozada best is Jonathan Tasis, even I have intuited that this current Analena Lozada could be an impostor, Jonathan Tasis could not help but notice. ”

Unless … Jonathan Tasis does not want to reveal the lie.

“The person behind your car accident is probably Eleanora Lozada, and her goal, I believe, is to avenge her dead sister.”

“Is there any proof?”

“Yes, Eleanora Lozada wired five million dollars to an unknown account in the days of your accident, to Javier Araya, the man who must have cut your brake fluid hose. He recently underwent a bone marrow transplant and has returned home with it. However, I have sent someone to look for him.”

Adán Rouco nodded slightly, “Keep this to yourself for now, Analena Lozada did die because of me, and I want to make amends if I can.”

“Yes.”

“By the way, go to the police station and investigate the case of the fire of La familia Berrocal ten years ago. ”

Santino Yepes froze, ten years ago?

“Is the boss so worried about the fire, what did it have to do with the wife?”

Adán Rouco responded in a light voice and said, “The fire, I believe, was arson. By the way, the woman said that a man, almost twenty years old, saved her at the time, so it must have been this man who reported the incident, and at the police station there would be a record of this man.”

“Yes, I’ll check it out right now.”
