Despite Alona's walking and blurring of her eyes due to tears, she suddenly collided with the young waiter holding a tray of wine glasses. As a result, he dropped it and smashed to the floor.

As a result, she grabbed the attention of their guests. They turned to them and looked at her.

“I'm sorry, Ma'am. I didn't really mean to hit you, ” the waiter apologized to her while picking up and cleaning the broken glasses.

The girl could not move. She was confused as to what she was going to do, and her eyes seemed to be spinning.

Ivan noticed her immediately, so he approached her and held her arm.

“Ms. Alona, ​​are you okay?” he said worriedly while making sure she had no wounds or scars inflicted on the body.

“Ivan,” the girl said softly.

The two's conversation was cut short when her father came up on stage and grabbed their attention.

“Attention to all the beautiful ladies and gentlemen here, who attended this occasion. I am truly grateful to all of you for attending the twenty-fifth birthday of our unica hija, Alona. Moreover, tonight only you will hear a important news i will share with you all. I urge you once again to attend the indispensable occasion or the day of my daughter and my soon to be son-in-law, Carlos Miguel Sermiento, for their upcoming wedding.” When the gentleman pointed out the young man's direction, they immediately turned to Carlos and applauded at the same time.

The young man raised the wine glass he was holding and drank the contents of the white wine in one gulp.

Alona also looked in Carlos' direction and happened to catch a glimpse of him as well. The young man smiled at her, but she just stared at it and turned her attention back to her father who was currently standing on the stage.

“Ivan, do you know all this? Do you also know that they are planning to marry me to that man?” she asked with tears dripping down the corners of her eyes.

Ivan didn't say a word right away, and just bowed in front of her.

"Why are you not talking? Does that mean your answer is yes? So, it means you are also their accomplice. ” After she said that, she turned around and went straight to the parking lot.

“Ms. Alona!” but Ivan also immediately followed her and Mr. Desepeda noticed them, so he went down the stage and followed his daughter.

“Alona!” he calls the maiden.

She stopped and turned to her father.

“Hija, you have nothing to worry about. You know we're only doing this for your sake, besides that Carlos is a good person. He's different from all the men you have met, he promised us that he will take care of you and he will never hurt you.” His father explained, but the girl just smirk and wiped the tears from her eyes.

“And you believed right away? How confident are you in that person? What did they give you in return so that they would allow you to marry me? is it because of the money again? The company? Or because until now, you still can't accept that brother Mike died, and i took his place? Or because i am a worthless child—” she just stopped speaking when she suddenly felt a heavy and strong slap from her mother's palm.

“Don't mention your brother Mike here! You're not in your position to criticize him for what is happening now!” furious and tearful said by her mother.

Alona touched that cheek of hers and looked her parents sharply in the eye.

“Alona,” called her father who was about to approach her, but she just turned around and walked away from them.

“Ms. Alona!” Ivan called to her while knocking on the car the girl was riding in.

Alona glanced at the windshield and just ignored him after that, she left the hacienda.

The gentleman was distressed about her daughter that something bad might happen to the girl, so he immediately got into his car to follow their daughter. His wife followed and went with him.

Ivan was shocked when the Desepeda couple passed in front of him.

"Sir, ma'am?" he was surprised to see the couple in the car.

He also seemed worried that something bad might happen to this family, so he got in his car and followed them.

“Carlos, son. Follow them, you will be the future of their company. So, you just have to treat them well and treat them as your real family. Go, before it's too late.” His father commanded him.

The young man immediately obeyed his command. He got in his car and drove it quickly.

Three vehicles are currently following Alona. But she didn't realize that it had followed her from behind.

Mr. Desepeda drives fast to match his daughter's car. He lowered the windshield and repeatedly called her name.

“Alona! stop the car right now!” he shouted, but Alona drove even faster in her car, and it led them.

His father did not budge and began to drive even faster.

“Mon, we're too fast.” Worried and afraid of his wife's promise. But it didn’t listen to him, and he just focused on their daughter’s car.

“Mon.” She called her husband again.

Mr. Desepeda turned to his wife, and then he realized that she was afraid of his driving speed.

So, he tried to slow down the car they were riding in, but still nothing changed in the speed of his running and it only accelerated.

“Ramon!” his wife shouted when she saw a white truck approaching in front of them.

When her husband turned to the front, he immediately turned the car he was riding in, but it hit the side of the bridge and eventually fell into a deep creek.

Alona glanced in her side mirror for a moment and quickly braked when she saw the accident that happened to her parents.

She hurried out of the vehicle and ran to the scene of the incident.

“Mom, dad!” her voice trembled as she called out and tears kept dripping from her eyes.

Despite her walk, she was suddenly hit by a red car.

With the force of the impact of the collision on her, she flung himself and rolled on the road. Her blood spread quickly as she stared at the clouds.

“Mom, dad, Mike.” She said softly on her lips with tears dripping from the corners of her eyes.

Gradually her eyesight dimmed, and she lost consciousness for a while.

Ivan quickly got out of the car and hurriedly approached the lying girl.

“Ms. Alona!" he repeatedly called her name.

He also turned his attention to what happened to the Desepeda couple, so he was confused and upset by a series of events.

“Hello? We're on the Reynaldo Bridge highway now. Can you please hurry because we need a rescuer here right away? Three people had an accident here, so please… We need your help.”

Carlos called an ambulance when he saw what happened to the Desepedas. There was a look of concern on his face, especially for Alona. So, he immediately approached her, but he was confused what he should do.

“Alona! Alona, ​​can you hear me?” At that moment, the girl's eyes opened for a moment, and she looked at him.

“Alona, ​​can you see me? Do not close your eyes. ” He said, but she completely lost consciousness.

“Ms. Alona!" he call her again.

Ivan stepped forward for a moment and listened carefully to the girl's pulse.

“Why?” Carlos asked when he suddenly turned to him.

“I can't feel her pulse.” After saying this, he also listened to the girl's pulse, but he suddenly backed away when he made sure that her heart stopped beating.

Moments later, ambulances and some police arrived. As soon as they arrived, Ivan immediately picked up the unconscious girl and ran to the ambulance.

“Help. Help her!” he shouted at the first aid responders.

When they saw Alona, ​​they quickly took her inside and rushed her to the hospital.

The Desepeda couple was also rushed to the hospital, but were later declared dead on arrival.

While the girl was still in the emergency room and was currently stitching up the wound on her head, Ivan suddenly fell to the floor when he saw the lifeless couple.

He burst into tears and clung to Mr. Desepeda's hand, who considered him almost a member of their family. The person who helped him move on with life and the one who strengthened his will.

At times when he needed a father to tell about problems, he was always ready to listen for him. But now that he was gone, iy was almost as if a big wall had hit him behind him.
