Shall we get Married? It's a Deal! Chapter 48 – I'm Sorry
Edan clenched his fists angrily, how much did he have to endure Vivian's outbursts? He was unwilling to give in to their threats.However, just as he was about to answer, Edan felt a soft, warm hand on his shoulder, which caught his attention."Okay, we don't want to disturb..."“What? He scowled at Alma's comment.“Don't worry, it will only be for a few days until I find a good place to rent.Edan looked at her worriedly, if the point of all this was for Alma to stay in his apartment, with him, and the fact that Alma's family was there, assured him of that."No..." He went to refute when Alma interrupted him."Edan, you must think of your family first..." In your father and in your son. Alma murmured, feeling the lump in her throat, but holding on as long as she could.Edan pursed his lips, Vivian had done it, but it was more because of Alma's intervention than because of her own threat.That same day, Vivian sent for some of her things and set them all up in Edan's room, and by dinn
Shall we get Married? It's a Deal! Chapter 49 – Thief
Although Alma didn't say anything to Edan so as not to cause more trouble, the next few days were hell.Vivian spewed her venom wherever she went, and the clashes escalated, especially when Vivian tried to mess with a member of Alma's family."You're so beautiful," Diana murmured with a twinkle of innocence in her eyes, as she watched Vivian flip through a magazine in the living room of the apartment."I know, child... Now go... Shu, Shu..." He sniffed at her as if he were a little animal."Can I tell you something without my mom and sister knowing?" The girl murmured without moving from her place."Yes..." Vivian turned around with a sudden interest, this might be her chance to get some information out. "Tell me." He whispered.“Once, I saw a horror movie, one of those that my mother forbids me to do..."Ash! What a bummer..." Vivian murmured, turning to her place, seeing that she was wasting her time with the little girl.“You know? In that movie there was a very beautiful woman, ju

Everyone froze, everyone thought the same thing, Alma was accused of fraud. But how did that happen? And slowly, a mischievous smile was drawn on Vivian's face, that was better than she expected.“I knew it! Vivian shouted, breaking the silence. "I told you, Edan, and you didn't believe me!" That woman is a vulgar careerist and thief! Officer, I want to file my complaint too! Vivian walked toward the officers."Is something wrong, miss?" The policeman was intrigued."Yes, that woman stole my engagement ring and I want to report her as a thief. Vivian explained, standing proudly, and pointing at Alma."Vivian, that's enough!" Edan growled at the woman, addressing the officers. "Excuse me, it's a mistake, this must all be a big mistake."None of that, my dear. Vivian interrupted. "Come on, officers..." And check it out for yourselves, she's got my expensive engagement ring in her room, I know, I'm sure."That's not true..." muttered Alma, feeling her body trembling and tears pooling in

"You have five minutes. The officer growled, opening the gate of Alma's cell, and immediately the young woman threw herself into Edan's arms, trembling, disturbed, crying."Edan, what did they say?" It's very serious, isn't it? Alma looked up, her eyes watering."I'm afraid so. Edan muttered in response, pressing her to his chest."What am I going to do, Edan?" What about my family? Now what will become of them? She muttered, rubbing her face on his chest.Edan was silent for a second, thoughtful, with everything Alma was going through, she was not thinking about her future, but about what would become of her family.He took a deep breath, Diego must have been wrong with his deductions, Alma might not be able to do everything he thought."Don't worry about them, they'll be fine, I'll make sure they do, I promise." Edan whispered, stroking her hair.“Thank you. Alma murmured, squeezing him."I'll get you out of here, you'll see...""But how?" It's obvious that it's all my father's doin

There were several hours of flight in which Edan felt that he was wasting his time, he was anxious, he wanted and needed to get Alma out of prison as soon as possible and every minute, he counted.Diego had given him Ricardo's last verified location a few days ago, and Edan hoped to find him there as soon as he could get there. Upon arriving at the airport, Edan rented a car to drive for another hour to the house where Ricardo was supposed to be.The villa that Edan found was majestic, a secluded and exclusive corner that stood out, even more, for the enormous house that stood out on top of a hill.His hands trembled with helplessness, that wretch had gone away and left his whole family to give them up as rich.Eagerly, Edan kept knocking on the door several times, but no one would come out. However, he would not give up, Edan was not there to return empty-handed, and very stealthily, he began to surround the house, looking for another entrance or a half-open window through which to s

Edan arrived at the airport and Diego was already waiting for him with several policemen, who would be in charge of taking Ricardo to prison.It was only ten minutes, in which Edan felt triumphant, seeing with his own eyes how they handcuffed Ricardo, read him the rights and the charges for which he would be accused.In addition to handing over the real culprit, Edan gave the officers a couple of videos, the first, in which Ricardo confessed, and the second, in which Rebeca, the woman with whom he lived, verified the confession made by Ricardo, as a witness.But it was only ten minutes, in which Edan felt complete relief, in which he wanted to run to the detachment to personally tell Alma that he would soon be free and when he saw her come out, he hugged her as he had not done before... And just ten minutes later, Edan felt stunned, at Diego's words."Alma is out of prison. He warned her as soon as the police officers left.“What? But how?"They gave him bail and he paid it."Did you

Taking a deep breath, Edan entered the O'Connor mansion, his mother didn't need to say anything, as Edan told him very seriously that he needed to talk to both Erick and Angelica together. Then, she understood that the time had come.With a lot of patience, Edan told his father everything, absolutely everything, from the beginning of the contract in that hospital, through Vivian's pregnancy, to Alma's imprisonment because of Ricardo, of course, Edan said it trying to use a lot of tact and being aware of each of his father's reactions.Because as soon as he saw a trace of alteration in Erick, Edan would stop to take him immediately to the clinic, however, his father seemed to take the matter better than he expected.“I knew it! Angelica snorted. "I told you; I didn't like that guy and my instinct doesn't fail!" He's not a good man!"Poor Alma, how could she do something like that, her own father, that little girl, has been through so much..." Erick commented."And Vivian!" As soon as h

They had been hard days for Alma, saying goodbye to her father and facing that she would never see Edan again, she had been destroyed, but for her, there was no time to suffer, no rest, especially when she had her entire family practically on top of her.Now that Alma's entire family lived in Mateo's small apartment, she wasn't about to show her sorrow in front of her family, so the only time she took to cry was when she showered, where the tears were rinsed away by mixing with the water in the shower.And even though Mateo's apartment was small and they were a bit cramped, Mateo always made sure that everyone felt comfortable, at home, being very attentive to their every need.There was only something uncomfortable in the atmosphere, and that was that it seemed that every day that passed, Mateo tried to get closer and closer to Alma, and not with the intention of friendship, because he was more and more cloying and insinuating, and although she was very grateful to him, that situatio

Henry grumbled angrily."How do you ask that?" We are your family. Vivian replied, pretending to be indignant."You say so... The first one who came to point at me and accuse me?" Henry muttered, clenching his jaw."And what did you want me to do?" What would allow me to be accused of complicity in accompanying you in this filth?
