Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

The Holy City was blessed with heavy snowfall, which fell for several days.

This morning, at last, it has ceased, and the sun has appeared for the first time, warming the snow and ice.

Estrella Berrocal stares at the sleeping Adán Rouco for a long, long time.

From last night until now, he has slept very, very soundly.

Lorenzo Rouco is gone, but will it be Adán Rouco, or Jerold Rouco, who is now about to wake up?

Estrella Berrocal looked at him worriedly for half an hour.

Adán Rouco slowly opened his heavy eyes, the sunlight stung him, but he also saw Estrella Berrocal against the light.

“Star?”

“Adam, you’ve finally woken up!”

Estrella Berrocal threw herself at him and threw her arms around his neck.

Adán Rouco leaned in and pulled back to embrace her as well.

“Have other personalities appeared?”

Estrella Berrocal said, a little sadly: “It was Lorenzo Rouco, Adán, you know? It turned out that the man who saved me was Lorenzo Rouco, and it was you”.

Adam Rouco froze slightly, he had never imagined that the man who had saved her ten years ago could be her other personality.

Lorenzo Rouco… it turned out to be him.

Tears fell from Estrella Berrocal’s eyes, “He left last night.”

Adán Rouco reached out with his fingertips and gently wiped away her tears, “I’m sorry.”

Estrella Berrocal snuggled into his chest, closed her eyes, choked back a few sobs and said, “Adam, I’m a little sad.”

Adán Rouco kissed her temple and said sweetly, “Good girl.”

Estrella Berrocal’s phone rang for a moment and she suddenly remembered: “Ah, yes, the news this morning said that Doria Guillén had been arrested by the police. It seems it’s still for the fire she set ten years ago.”

Adam Rouco’s eyes darkened and he said, “This, I think, has to do with Lorenzo Rouco. ”

“Lorenzo Rouco?”

“Well, he was the one who rushed into the fire to save you in the first place, when he most likely saw the person who set the fire.”

Estrella Berrocal’s heart was filled with a mixture of emotions, be it excitement, sadness or anguish…. All these emotions intertwined and flooded her heart.

…

Estrella Berrocal called Esteban Zaragosa before Adán Rouco woke up.

In a short time, Esteban Zaragosa arrived at The Villas of Repulse Bay.

“Adam, how are you?”

Adán Rouco nodded: “I’m fine, just a little tired”.

“With alternating personalities, it’s normal for the body to feel tired.”

Estrella Berrocal asked, “Doctor Esteban, Lorenzo Rouco has told me that he appears whenever Adam is sad, and Jerold Rouco appears when Adam is very angry. What is the reason for all this?”.

Esteban Zaragosa explains: “In medical terms, sadness and anger are two extreme emotions, a blue emotion produced by over-repression and a red emotion that desperately wants to be released, and in the case of people with multiple personality, when they are cynically very sad, the brain creates a new identity to be sad instead, and they themselves become oblivious or even unconscious to this sadness. Lorenzo Rouco, on the other hand, is the equivalent of such a being. In a way, Lorenzo Rouco is the twenty-two-year-old Adam Rouco”.

Estrella Berrocal asked incredulously, “But last night, after saying goodbye to me, Lorenzo Rouco seemed to have really left, Dr. Esteban, will the personality leave too?”

“To be precise, Lorenzo Rouco did not leave, he was cured by you and thus merged with the main frame.”

When Esteban Zaragosa left, Estrella Berrocal stared at Adán Rouco and asked him, “You were sad and that’s why Lorenzo Rouco was there. … But Adán, why are you suddenly so sad? What happened? What’s wrong?”

It is surprising that you know nothing about it.

Adán Rouco’s phone rang and he pursed his thin lips as he said: “I’m going to take a call”.

Adán Rouco took the phone out of the room before picking it up.

Santino Yepes said: “Boss, the doctor for the abortion … has been summoned for this Friday at 10 a. m.”.

Adán Rouco’s eyes fluttered and he gave an indifferent “hmmm”, “I see”.

After hanging up the phone, he turned to look at Estrella Berrocal in the bedroom with some pain in his eyes.

It had not occurred to him what to say to her about it.

Estrella Berrocal came out of the bedroom: “I’m going downstairs to make you breakfast”.

Adán Rouco pulled her gently and hugged her sweetly, “Estrella.”

“Hmm?”

Adán Rouco closed his eyes and opened his lips, but could not resist saying it.

He lightly released her, “It’s nothing, I’ll get it ready for you.”

Estrella Berrocal gently pushed him away and looked at him with a studied, amused look, “I suddenly feel now that what Dr. Esteban said may be true, that you and Lorenzo Rouco…. have really merged…”.”Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

Adán Rouco laughed lightly and raised his hand to give him a chestnut on the forehead: “It’s normal for Lorenzo Rouco to be nice to you, isn’t it normal for me to be nice to you?

With a serious expression, Estrella Berrocal reached out and wrapped her hand around his waist tightly, burying herself in his arms and murmuring, “Adam, whatever happens from now on, we’re going to be good together.”

“Well, no one can go back on their word.”

…

After Adán Rouco came to the office the next day, Fresco Rouco brought Arella Rouco to the door to apologize.

Estrella Berrocal had just finished breakfast when Fresco Rouco hit Arella Rouco on the leg with her crutches: “Get on your knees and ask your sister-in-law for forgiveness!”.

Estrella Berrocal was not sure: “Tio Dos, what’s wrong?”.

Fresco Rouco sighed, “Oh, Estrella, I’m sorry, it’s all because Arella Rouco didn’t know any better, that’s why you…”

Arella Rouco fell to her knees and cried, “Sister-in-law I’m sorry, it’s all my fault, I was too impulsive…”

Estrella Berrocal was even more confused: “Tío Dos, Arella, what are you doing?

At that time, Arella Rouco just pushed her in the hospital, and didn’t the doctor say she was fine?

Arella Rouco grabbed Estrella Berrocal’s leg with both hands and begged her: “Sister-in-law, can you let the brother not hate me? I didn’t mean to, I pushed you without meaning to, but I didn’t think … it would make you lose your baby …”

Estrella Berrocal stiffened violently and her face went white.

“You, what did you say?”

She looked in surprise at Arella Rouco, who was kneeling before her.

“Sister-in-law… you, you still don’t know? Brother, brother said you suffered a lot to keep the baby, it’s all my fault, if I hadn’t pushed you, this baby could have been saved … I’m sorry… Sister-in-law, you can forgive me….. …”

Estrella Berrocal’s feet and took a step back.

“Are you, are you kidding me?”

Arella Rouco’s downcast eyes slid into a winning, grim smile, and when she looked up again, she knelt pitifully and said, “Sister-in-law … so … you didn’t know? I’m sorry … I really didn’t know…”

Estrella Berrocal stuck out her lips in a smile, “Relax,” said Adán, “the doctor said I’m fine, the baby…. baby is fine.”

Unconsciously, he put his hand behind his back and looked at Arella Rouco in disbelief.

Arella Rouco bit her lip and said, “Sister-in-law, don’t you know? Brother has made an appointment for a doctor to operate on you…”

Estrella Berrocal plopped down on the sofa behind her.

No… it is not possible.

Adam clearly stated that his son was fine and that nothing serious was wrong.
