Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

Adán Rouco took Estrella Berrocal by the hand as she approached Fresco Rouco, a hint of disbelief shining in Fresco Rouco’s look of recognition.

Fresco Rouco’s gaze lingered on Estrella Berrocal’s face for a long time.

It wasn’t until Paulita, who was next to his legs, took Fresco Rouco’s big, pale hand and said, “Grandpa second, you still haven’t answered me, it’s just that Estrella is beautiful!”

Only then did Fresco Rouco turn, reach out and stroke Paulita’s little head and say with a smile, “Your father always had a good eye.”

Adán Rouco took the floor and introduced himself: “Uncle, this is Estrella Berrocal, my wife”.

Estrella Berrocal greeted Fresco Rouco with a wry smile, “Hola, tío”.

Fresco Rouco looked at Estrella Berrocal again and then said, “Let’s go in and talk, for lunch today, you can stay for dinner, Arella happens to be home too.”

Just as he arrived, a young woman came down from upstairs in her pajamas and, seeing Adán Rouco, called out to him: “Brother!

Then the little girl ran up the stairs and ran straight into Adam Rouco’s arms, threw her arms around his neck and said happily, “Brother, I haven’t seen you for a long time, and my father told me that this time I’m going back to The Holy City, not to England, so I can play with you more often! ”

Estrella Berrocal, who was standing to one side, watched the girl’s body pressed against Adán Rouco’s chest and a tinge of jealousy grew in her heart.

Adam Rouco reached out and lowered the hands hanging from his neck, at which point Fresco Rouco educated, “Arella, how old are you, why are you still jumping at the first meeting?”

Arella Rouco looked at Adán Rouco and pouted, “Dad, I’ve been stuck with my brother since I was little, it’s not that you don’t know, he’s my brother, he’s not a stranger, what does it matter?”

Paulita, on the other side, tilted her little head, frowned and reminded Arella Rouco in a milky voice: “Tia, my father is married, you can’t hug my father like that anymore, if you do, not only will I get jealous, Estrella will also get upset.”

Arella Rouco’s eyes fluttered, “Brother, are you married? How come I didn’t know that?”

Adán Rouco drew Estrella Berrocal to his side and took her hand firmly as he said in a soft voice, “I just got my license and I’ll buy you a drink after the wedding.”

Before Arella Rouco could react, she saw how Adán Rouco introduced Estrella Berrocal: “My sister, Arella Rouco”.

Estrella Berrocal extended her hand to Arella Rouco: “Hi, I’m Estrella Berrocal”.

Arella Rouco did not call her sister-in-law or shake her hand, Paulita blinked her big eyes and snorted, “Tia, my Estrella says hello, why do you ignore people?”

Estrella Berrocal withdrew her hand, smiled softly at Paulita and said, “Paulita, it’s okay. Your tita has just met me for the first time and is not yet familiar with me”.

Arella Rouco was hostile to her, I could tell.

That her brother, who had adored her since she was a child, was taken from her by another woman was no less of a sentiment than her own boyfriend cheating on her, and Estrella Berrocal could understand that.

After all, if she had had a brother like Adán Rouco, she probably would also have been uncomfortable with his sudden marriage.

Arella Rouco shot a dismissive glance at Estrella Berrocal before turning around and saying, “I’m going upstairs to change.”

Adán Rouco called her, with a cold and unmistakable voice: “Arella, call the sister-in-law”.

“…”

Arella Rouco’s arrogance got the better of her and she turned to stare at Estrella Berrocal, refusing to speak.

Estrella Berrocal looked at Adán Rouco and said, “Forget it.”

But Adán Rouco’s handsome face was cold, he did not appear to be being polite, and his harsh tone was clearly commanding.

Arella Rouco was afraid of Adán Rouco, so she gritted her teeth and reluctantly shouted, “Sister-in-law.”

After screaming, he ran upstairs with a thud.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Fresco Rouco looked at his daughter’s back and frowned in displeasure: “This girl! She’s getting more and more unruly! She’s not as polite as Paulita!”.

Shoshana Duque, who had come out of the kitchen, heard the commotion in the living room and said with a smile, “What’s the matter, did Adam just come in and you’re mad?”

“Look what you have spoiled Arella Rouco!”.

Shoshana Duque was not angry with Fresco Rouco, she smiled and looked towards Adán Rouco and Estrella Berrocal, expecting to see Estrella Berrocal with a look of astonishment.

How was it possible that this girl … looked so much like Juanisha Capistrán back then?

Could it be that she was Juanisha Capistrán’s daughter?

“Adam, is this … your new girlfriend?”

Adán Rouco said to Estrella Berrocal: “Estrella, call the second aunt”.

Estrella Berrocal, “Hola tía segunda”.

“Hello hello, is your name…?”

“Yes, my name is Estrella Berrocal”.

Shoshana Duque was secretly relieved, maybe she was overthinking things, “Oh… it’s Estrella, Adam, don’t stand still, take Estrella and Paulita to sit down, what do they want to drink, I’ll get it. ”

When Arella Rouco came downstairs after changing and dressing from upstairs, she nonchalantly squeezed herself on the sofa between Adán Rouco and Estrella Berrocal and sat down, hugging Adán Rouco’s arm directly and smiling, “Brother, it’s been almost a year since I’ve seen you and I miss you so much. Every time I try to record you at night, your video calls don’t come through once, why don’t you answer?”.

Estrella Berrocal, who had been pushed aside, was a bit embarrassed and gagged.

Adán Rouco sticks out his arm without moving and reminds him: “Jet lag”.

“Ah, that’s right, there’s seven or eight hours time difference between London and The Holy City.”

Adán Rouco gets up and, instead of sitting next to Arella Rouco, says to Fresco Rouco: “Tío Dos, if there is nothing else, I am going to play a game of chess with you”.

“Yes, it’s rare to find you wanting, Arella Rouco, go get the board and the pieces.”

Arella Rouco cheerfully went for the board and pieces and Roberto Rouco and Adán Rouco sat across from each other.

Arella Rouco was about to sit next to Adán Rouco when he suddenly reached out his hand and pulled Estrella Berrocal and said: “Come and see how I play chess”.

Estrella Berrocal said “Oh” and sat next to Adán Rouco, while Arella Rouco was about to sit on the other side of Adán Rouco when Paulita had already taken the seat on the right next to Adán Rouco.

“Auntie, go sit next to the second grandfather, Estrella and I have to stay with daddy!”.

Arella Rouco gasped and Fresco Rouco laughed saying, “Arella, your brother already has a family, you are a child, don’t always cling to your brother, Paulita even knows more than you, come, sit next to daddy and settle down to watch chess properly.”

Paulita nodded her head as if she were an adult upon receiving the compliment from her second grandfather and said, “Yes! Tia, Grandpa is right, now my daddy is mine and Estrella’s, you can’t steal him from me anymore!”.

Arella Rouco made a face at Paulita: “You’re so proud!

Paulita pursed her lips and said, “How childish you are, Aunt, making faces at a three-year-old!”

Arella Rouco let out a laugh and said, “You’re still a three year old baby!”.

Paulita asked Adán Rouco in confusion, “Papa, what does my tita mean when she says that about me? Has my tita scolded me?”.

Adán Rouco laughed lightly and stroked his daughter’s head. “Your tita has said that you look innocent and simple but in reality you are full of bad things.”

Paulita hugged her little arms and grunted proudly, “I’m not bad!”.

Adán Rouco cajoled his daughter, “Paulita gets her darkness from her father, her tita is congratulating Paulita for her intelligence”.

Paulita glanced at Arella Rouco with glee.
