Shall we get Married? It's a Deal! Chapter 56 — Did You Enjoy It?
They reached the top floor, a young secretary made them wait for a long time, but in the end, she allowed them to pass. A middle-aged man with very masculine features and dressed in an elegant suit was waiting for them behind a desk."Good afternoon, sir. Charlotte greeted as soon as she opened the door.“Carlota? Is there a problem? The man asked, looking at Alma strangely.“No, sir... It's just, she's Alma. Charlotte pointed to her. "Alma, this is Mr. Rafael Montalvo, the manager of the company. Alma approached, a little nervously, shaking the hand of the man who looked so stern."You liked it very much, Mr. Montalvo.“Nice to meet you. He answered. "Carlota, I still don't understand, what's the problem?""Well, she's the young lady I told you about for the design manager position and..."“Ah, yes? Congratulations, young lady, this is a great opportunity for you..." The man murmured a little more politely."Sir, if you'll allow me—" Alma began to refute. — I still don't understand a

“Edan? Vivian exhaled, feeling a leap in her heart. "I... Your brother came... And I... I received him, I thought you weren't here, I accompanied him for a while... And—" Vivian stammered in a desperate attempt, kicking like a drowning man."Don't bother explaining to me, Vivian, I noticed that you received my brother very well..." Edan said, taking a sip from his cup of tea, and then placing it on the coffee table.“What? You don't understand, honey, I—" She intoned pleadingly, being interrupted by Edan, who couldn't stand her impudence. How could she call it darling after what she had just done?"That's enough, Vivian! Edan got up, tired of doing so much stupidity. "How much more do you want to see my idiot face?!" I KNOW ALL ABOUT IT! HOW DO I HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT TO YOU SO THAT YOU UNDERSTAND IT? He shouted at the top of his lungs, leaving Vivian static."You don't have to talk to me like that..." Edan, I didn't want to..." Vivian refuted, indignantly, feeling her eyes burn."What d
Shall we get Married? It's a Deal! Chapter 58 – Manipulator
Things had gotten a little out of hand, Mateo was very angry and just couldn't give in. How come Alma didn't see it? That a simple intern is given a management position with a house and car included? That could only be Edan's doing.A heated argument ensued between the two of them, Matthew had hopes, high hopes that Alma would finally forget about this man and accept him, but the more reasons Matthew gave Alma to turn down that management position, the more and more convinced she should accept it.Wasn't that Edan going to give up after what Luz had told him? Did he want to continue manipulating Alma as he pleased, using his money and power? Matthew wasn't about to allow it."I'm sorry, Mateo, I'm very grateful to you for everything you've done, but now that the company provides me with a place for me and my family, it's best for us to move, I don't want to cause you any more trouble." Alma said very seriously, wanting to let him know that this was her last word."Have I ever complain
Shall we get Married? It's a Deal! Chapter 59 – Starting From Scratch
Mateo puffed out his chest, feeling like a hero, anxiously waiting for the moment when Alma would react and see how he slapped Edan and then ran into his arms, however, that was not exactly what happened.“Edan? I have to hear it from you... Is that true? She asked, in a whisper, approaching him.“I... I... Yes. Edan looked down. "I bought the company, I invested something in it and, well..."What about my new job?" It was you too, wasn't it? Alma pursed her lips, feeling helplessness fill her."I wanted to see you well, comfortable, happy..." He murmured in a pleading tone, looking into her eyes and taking her hands."Do you look good?" It will be to see you where he wanted, far from my home. Mateo growled a few steps away from them."You, shut up! You! You don't want to pretend that you're doing this for her because you're not! You do it for yourself! To win their affection, just for that! — Edan shouted at Mateo."Just like you..." He refuted this.Alma took a step back, listening
Shall we get Married? It's a Deal! Chapter 60 — What Am I Adopted?
“Ethan! What are you up to?! Edgar shouted, approaching his brother to snatch the paper from his hand and quickly hide it in his pants pocket.Edan froze, staring between each of his family members, who waited expectantly for a reaction from him. Beside him, his father, Erick, took one of Edan's hands, squeezing it tightly.“What? What did you just say? What am I adopted? Edan muttered, sliding his gaze to his father."Son..." Erick began sweetly when he was interrupted by Ethan.“Yes! You're adopted! Of course you are! And now, I understand why mom and dad always preferred you, they felt sorry for the child they picked up off the street. But what I don't understand is, how could they give the best part of the inheritance to you? Ethan shouted, looking at Edan contemptuously."Ethan, that's enough! Edgar interjected, stepping between the two brothers."You... Did you know that too?" Edan asked, completely stunned, to his brother, Edgar.“Yes, I'm sorry, I discovered it with Ethan... B
Shall we get Married? It's a Deal! Chapter 61 – I Have Nothing to Offer You
Ethan stood up, feeling triumphant, if Edan gave up everything, that meant that everything now belonged to him, but he wasn't going to make it so easy for his supposed brother either.“Ha, ha, ha. He laughed again, arrogantly. "Will you give up everything?" Well, if you really want to prove that you're a little man, which means you won't use your accounts, your apartment, your car, or your influences like an O'Connor... Nothing you got thanks to my parents. You'll have to start as you should, like a poor man, just another employee..."Edan, son, you don't have to do this, you don't have anything to prove to anyone..." Angelica approached Edan, ignoring Ethan's words and noticing how Edan looked more and more determined."I won't allow it, this is impudence, Edan..." To give up what you have earned in this way, at the whim of your brother, is ridiculous. Erick blurted out, worried."I'll do it, Dad..." I'm not afraid. Edan said, still looking Ethan in the eye. "I'll do it, not to prove
Shall we get Married? It's a Deal! Chapter 62 — Is It a Deal?
They had sat at a small table in the café somewhat apart from the rest of the audience, Edan told Alma everything, absolutely everything that happened with his brother at his parents' house and like him, he had to give up what it meant to be an O'Connor.Yes, it was a shock to Alma to learn that he was adopted, but as she immersed herself in Edan's story and learned how his parents defended him, Alma understood that for Erick and Angelica, Edan was their son, even if Ethan didn't agree."How did you accept something like that?" If your father didn't agree—" She murmured, worried."Alma, you don't know my brother..." This was never going to end; he wouldn't be quiet until he got the company or until he understood that he had lost it forever... And in the meantime, my father would live in mortification. Edan explained."And you don't think your father will be now, thinking about all that you might be going through?""He's fine, I take care to call him every day, to let him know I'm fine

Vivian makes her appearance, erect, proud, trying to show dignity, although inside, she felt broken."I've come to talk to you, Ethan. She growled, entering uninvited and leaving the attendant speechless.Ethan gets up with a furrow between his eyebrows, how dare Vivian go look for him at the company? What was he trying to do? What would they discover? Besides, he didn't have time for this, he had only a month left to deliver the countless reports to his father and although he had managed to make up quite a few numbers, there were some facts that were impossible to hide."Leave us alone." Ethan ordered his assistant, who was still leaning out of the door, curiously. The girl left. "What are you doing here, Vivian?" He asked, frowning."What am I doing here?"

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?

Ethan repeated, trying to absorb his father's words.Edan and Edgar were put on alert, after everything that had happened at the last family gatherings, they no longer knew how their brother might react to Erick's words."How did you hear, Ethan... How did you think the headquarters would leave you after you almost bankrupted it?" And not only that, instead of taking responsibility, you tried to deceive me..."
