Chapter 26: Leaving without saying goodbye

    -Does Adam know… that Dante is his son?


    Estre’s hands clenched unconsciously.


    Olivia’s eyes lowered slightly, settling on her clenched fists nervously, and she smiled slightly, “Adam…. Of course he knows Dante is his son. My father-inw is a traditional and conservative minded person, Adam and I are afraid of irritating him, so we have kept it a secret, but we have been looking for an opportunity to talk to my father-inw about this matter. For the past few years, my father-inw has been looking for a girlfriend for Adam, Adam thought about confessing to his father, but I didn’t dare-.


    So that was the reason Adam had asked her to pretend to be his wife, just to pretend to the Roberto?


    But if that were the case, why did Adam propose to her just now?


    Olivia understood the situation, she smiled slightly and took Estre’s hands, she said softly -Estre, I heard Adam talking about marrying you a moment ago, about this matter I am very sorry, I am very sorry for you-.


    Star looked at her in confusion, “Are you sorry for me?


    -Some time ago, Adam brought you home just to incite me, he said that if I kept backing out of this n he would really marry you, I know he still wants to force me-“.


    -…-


    So she’s totally a tool to piss Olivia off?!


    Even though she knew this was a business contract and that she was cooperating with Adam only to get La Vi Berrocal back, why after learning these things from Olivia’s mouth, she felt so resentful.


    Olivia seriously said, “Star, you’re still so young, it’s not worth losing your lifelong happiness. My rtionship with Adam shouldn’t involve you either.


    Estre was about to say something when the phone on the side rang, the caller ID indicated it was Ricardo.


    Olivia’s eyes were surprised to see the caller ID.


    Did she and Ricardo also know each other?


    Estre looked at Olivia and held her phone without answering the call, Olivia understood the situation and got up -Then get well soon, I won’t bother you-.


    After Olivia left the room, Estre answered the phone.


    Ricardo asked desperately, “Star, where are you now?


    Star was stunned -I’m, I’m in the hospital -I’m, I’m in the hospital-.


    -What? Did you get sick?


    -I have a fever.


    -Which hospital are you in? I’m on my way there right away!


    …


    Fifteen minutester, Ricardo appeared in Estre’s hospital room.


    -Estre, what happenedst night….


    Once she thought aboutst night’s messy scenes, Estre immediately said -We were both drunkst night, don’t worry I won’t take it to heart, besides nothing happened between us-.


    Ricardo stared at her pale face, her eyes were dull and he asked hesitantly, “Estre, are you really my uncle’s wife?


    Estre frowned, very confused -Your uncle? Your uncle is…


    -Adam is my uncle and Pe’s uncle,st night he was the one who took you out of the bar, he also said that you were his wife, Paulita’s mother. Estre… When did you meet my uncle?


    Adam turned out to be Ricardo and Pe’s uncle?!


    This event was like a bomb that exploded in Estre’s head and exploded leaving a mess.


    His brain was in a mess, he didn’t know how to exin this matter to Ricardo, -I… me and Adam, it’s not what you think-.


    Ricardo was also desperate -Estre, how are you and my uncle in the end? Are you married to him or not?? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    -No, no…


    Ricardo wanted to inquire and asked, “Then why did my uncle say you were his wife?


    Estre held her forehead, she couldn’t keep lying, so she had to tell the truth -I was making a deal with Adán, he helped me to recover La Vi Berrocal and I pretended to be his wife to deal with his family-.


    -What?


    Ricardo was surprised, but still he let out a huge relief and said with a long sigh, “Luckily, luckily, you were just acting, what would I do if you really got married?


    -Ah?


    Ricardo stopped immediately and swallowed saliva -My uncle is someone older for us, if you were together, would the rtionships be confused? you are my schoolmate and Pe’s best friend, would Pe and I have to call you aunt in the future?


    Estre moved her lips and pleaded, “But, can you help me keep this matter secret for now, in case Rouco’s side finds out….


    -Well, I’ll definitely keep it a secret.


    Estre looked at Ricardo and asked with some curiosity, stuttering, “By the way, since Adam is your uncle, then you must also know Olivia, right?


    -Yes, Olivia is my aunt, but her husband died young and it’s quite difficult for her to raise the child alone.


    -So… how did your husband pass away?


    -He had a car ident on the road and died, is something wrong?


    Estre was stunned and shook her head.


    So it looks like Olivia really didn’t lie to you?


    Damn Adam, how dare he try to trick her into marrying him, it would be impossible for her to marry him!


    When the contract expires, she would immediately dissolve the contractual rtionship with him and resume her freedom.


    While she was deep in thought, Ricardo looked up and saw that the serum was almost finished. -It’s almost over, I’ll call the nurse toe and take out the needle.


    …


    When the nurse finished removing Estre’s needle, Ricardo then said, “Where are you staying now, shall I take you back?


    Estre remembered Paulita and Adán in the children’s room; it did not seem right for her to go alone with Ricardo.


    -I’ll go to the bathroom first, wait for me here for a while.


    -All right,e back soon.


    …


    In the hallway of the children’s room.


    -Adam, do you still me me for not having taken good care of Paulita?


    Adam with a hand in his pocket and a clear and calm look, -Sister-inw, I’m not ming you, you don’t have to feel guilty-.


    Olivia frowned -But your attitude towards me is so cold, Adam, the way you used to treat me, it wasn’t like that…-.


    -Olivia, you are thinking too much.


    As Estre made her way to this area of the children’s room, her eyes lifted and then she met Olivia’s gaze not far away.


    Olivia was stunned, and just as Adam turned to enter the room, her hands suddenly wrapped around his neck-Adam-


    Lifting her head and trying to kiss his thin lips, only the man reacted too quickly, his head tilted and his red lips kissed her cheek.


    Olivia’s gaze across Adam’s shoulder looked at Star who was stunned.


    She looked frozen and after standing still there for a few seconds, she hurriedly turned around and walked away with quick steps.


    Adam pushed Olivia away, his dark eyes were extremely cold, the man pursed his thin lips, not saying a word as he looked at her sullenly, he was seething inside him.


    From the living room came the tender voice of Paulita -Daddy! What are you doing? I want to drink water-.


    Adam had his hands in his pockets, his eyes were as cold as ice, he turned around and walked into the living room.


    Obviously, Adam was angry about the kiss just now.
