Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

“Could someone have called him something between now and then and told him to go to Bohai Bridge?”

“Dr. Esteban, could you send someone to check Adam’s phone records from Christmas Day?”.

That day at the Blues Bar, people from La familia Orihuela had met Esteban Zaragosa but did not dare offend him, which was enough to show how powerful and well-connected Esteban Zaragosa was. Estrella Berrocal had no authority to check Adán Rouco’s phone records, but Esteban Zaragosa could have done it for her.

“No problem.”

Ten minutes later, Esteban Zaragosa received a long list of calls, and the last call of Christmas Day was from a pay phone.

It was a pay phone that seemed oddly suspicious.

Estrella Berrocal asked, “Based on the payphone number, can you find out exactly where this booth is located?”

“Yes, but I don’t know if there is surveillance near this cabin, and besides, public surveillance is usually kept for at most a week, and it’s been a whole month since Adam’s accident.”

Estrella Berrocal reflected, “But who would want to hurt Adam, Jonathan Tasis? …”

Esteban Zaragosa pursed his lips and said, “This Analena Lozada is too suspicious. If we want to quickly find out if Analena Lozada had anything to do with Adam’s car accident in the first place, we can bring Analena Lozada to take a lie detector test.”

“Dr. Esteban, we have to unring the bell, Adam is now trapped in twenty-two memories and I think only Analena Lozada can wake him up, if we bring Analena Lozada in and stall the relationship, will she refuse to help Adam?”

“You’re right about that.”

…

Estrella Berrocal headed straight to Jonathan Tasis’ Blue County Villas.

Neither Jonathan Tasis nor Analena Lozada were at home and only the maid came out to greet them.

“Excuse me, which one are you?”.

Estrella Berrocal stood in front of the carved iron gate and politely said: “Hello, I am here to see Jonathan Tasis and Analena Lozada, are they at home?

Exaltación Cendejas said, “Mr. and Miss Analena are not at home, they are outside, are you a friend of our Mr. and Mrs. Analena?”

“More or less, I’m looking for them on an important matter.”

As they were talking, a black Bentley slowly drove up.

Estrella Berrocal’s watery eyes lit up.

Jonathan Tasis and Analena Lozada got out of the car.

Jonathan Tasis was a little surprised to see Estrella Berrocal and wrinkled his nose slightly: “This Berrocal?

“President Jonathan, I am here to see Miss Analena.”

Eleanora Lozada’s heart stuttered… Did Estrella Berrocal already know that she had caused the accident with Adán Rouco?

No, if Estrella Berrocal knew it, the Rouco family would have known it too, and besides, the Rouco Group had given a press conference this morning, Adán Rouco was not dead, he had come back alive.

Eleanora Lozada does not move, she smiles slightly, “What does Miss Estrella want from me?”.

“Miss Analena, I know it was Adam who caused you to fall overboard in the first place, but you are still alive, can you forgive Adam?”.

Eleanora Lozada laughed softly, “I don’t want to blame Adán Rouco, is that why you came to see me, to ask about him?”

“No.” Estrella Berrocal looked at Jonathan Tasis, “President Jonathan, could I have a moment alone with Miss Analena?”

Jonathan Tasis looked at Eleanora Lozada, who nodded to him and said, “Go inside, I’ll talk to Miss Estrella, it’s okay.”

“Hmm.”

Jonathan Tasis loosened his large arm around Eleanora Lozada’s waist and looked back at Estrella Berrocal before leading her long legs into the villa.

“Now that it’s just the two of us, Miss Star could speak if she has anything to say.”

“Miss Analena, Adam has been feeling guilty about you, something you should know, just because he feels guilty about you he has developed some kind of disease, could you help him?”.

Eleanora Lozada laughed, “Adán Rouco is sick and I am not a doctor, how can I help him?”

Estrella Berrocal looked at her seriously, “He has a heart condition, if you forgive him, he will get better.”

Eleanora Lozada’s heart softened as she looked at her with such affection, but when she thought of her dead sister, Eleanora Lozada’s voice dropped and she said: “But if it hadn’t been for him, Jonathan Tasis and I wouldn’t have been separated for ten years, Miss Estrella, do you know how long ten years is? Do you know how long that is? Jonathan Tasis and I missed ten of the most romantic and beautiful years of our lives, and I would have forgiven Adam Rouco if I hadn’t hated him, and you’re asking me to help you? I can’t do it.

“But it’s just that Adam didn’t intend to do it in the first place …. Miss Analena…”

“In this world, many wounds are unintentional, and if all unintentional wounds can be forgiven, those who die from those unintentional wounds are the ones who deserve it…”

“That’s not what I meant…”.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

Eleanora Lozada was not soft-hearted and hung up on Estrella Berrocal, turning around to take two steps toward the chalet, only to stop suddenly and turn around again.

He looked at Estrella Berrocal and said, word for word: “In this world there is no such thing as unintentional harm or unconditional help”.

Estrella Berrocal’s watery eyes trembled, “What does it take for you to forgive Adam?”.

“Now that the damage is done, it’s time to pay the price. You asked me to help Adam Rouco overcome his demons, I can help him, but I have one condition.”

“What condition?”

“I want you to leave Adán Rouco.”

Estrella Berrocal’s heart fluttered, her fists clenched and her face paled for a moment. “Why, what does it mean to you that I’m leaving Adán Rouco?”.

“Because Adán Rouco has cost me, and those who love me, their favorites, and I just want to give Adán Rouco a taste of what it’s like to lose the love of your life.”

She and her sister, identical twins, although they did not grow up together, perhaps because they were identical twins, their preferences, interests, even their personalities, were almost identical, so much so that even their family could not tell them apart at times, they always had a particularly strong telepathic connection.

The day her sister died, her heart fluttered and she nearly suffocated from anguish, followed by a high fever for three days and nights in a row.

His sister was the most important family member in his life.

Estrella Berrocal was wet-eyed, runny-eyed, staring at Eleanora Lozada and asking, “Does it have to be like this?”

Eleanora Lozada did not turn around and walked straight into the chalet.

…

Estrella Berrocal received a call from Esteban Zaragosa after leaving Villas del Condado Azul.

“Jerold Rouco has been taken away by Clementina Orihuela, you don’t need to come, go back and rest, Adam’s treatment, it’s not something that can be eradicated in a day or two.”

Estrella Berrocal nodded, “Well, Dr. Esteban, you said Adam was trapped in the year twenty-two, could you use hypnosis to wake him up?”

“I’m not sure, and, even if I did, his memories would go back to the year twenty-two, and he still wouldn’t know you.”

Estrella Berrocal took a deep breath and pursed her lips together in a forced smile. “Surely Analena Lozada returns to Adam if the bell gets unringed, right?”.

“Personality splitting is a mental and traumatic illness, the root of Adam’s condition is the death of Analena Lozada, if Analena Lozada helps him with his treatment, he should wake up, if nothing else.”

Estrella Berrocal held the phone, tears falling slowly from her eyes, her voice muffled, “Yes, Dr. Esteban, please take the trouble to treat him later.”

She was willing to do whatever it took to wake Adam up.
