Adán Rouco insisted and Estre Berrocal stepped back.


    She was his wife if she had slept with him and bore him children, and she wasn’t the only one who met that criterion!


    Even if Mica did not fit this criterion, what about Olivia Montes?


    Estre Berrocal was not one to hold a grudge, but she could not ept that there was a child between Adán Rouco and Olivia Montes.


    “So Olivia Montes is also your wife…”


    Before he could finish his question, Adán Rouco’s cell phone rang.


    They both looked up at the same time; it was the daycare phone.


    Adán Rouco picked up the phone: “Hello”.


    “Is this Pa Rouco’s father, please?”.


    Adán Rouco’s brow furrowed, “Yes, what’s wrong with Pa Rouco?”


    The kindergarten teacher who was there said anxiously, “Pa Rouco’s father, pleasee to the kindergarten, Pa Rouco is not feeling well since she fell asleep today after lunch, our teacher has taken her temperature and she has almost forty degrees, she has a high fever …”


    Before the teacher could finish her sentence, Adán Rouco said in a deep voice: “I’ll be right there, please physically refresh her first.”


    “Good, good.”


    After hanging up the phone, Estre Berrocal asked worriedly, “Is Paulita sick?”.


    “Yes, a very high fever, I’m on my way.”


    “I’ming with you!”


    Adán Rouco looked at his battered arm: “You’d better stay here and wait”.


    Estre Berrocal knew that she could not help and that she might cause some trouble for Adán Rouco, so, although she was worried, she had the courage not to follow him.


    …


    When Adán Rouco arrived at the nursery, Paulita’s face was red and burning.


    “Dad, Pa is sick.”


    Adán Rouco picked up Paulita and told her in a mute, reassuring voice: “Hold on a little longer, daddy will take you to the hospital soon and you’ll be fine”.


    When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor rmended an injection and, once in the injection room, Paulita cried like a wolf, with watery tear stains on her little face, and clung to Adán Rouco’s neck: “Daddy I don’t want an injection …. I’m scared! Daddy, I don’t want the injection! The injection hurts!”


    “If you don’t get the injection you will get burned, behave yourself, after the injection daddy will take you to buy something tasty.”


    “Dad, I won’t eat the treats! I don’t want the shot!”


    The more she cajoled him, the louder he got and Adán Rouco simply stopped cajoling and held the little girl, grabbing her by the restless legs, “Doctor, do it.”


    “Ooooooooooooooooooo … Daddy doesn’t love Pa anymore… I’m going home to tell Grandpa! Tell Estre! Dad is harassing me! Ooooooooooooooooooooooo …”


    It wasn’t the first time that Adán Rouco brought Paulita in for an injection, so the experience was there, you just have to hold on and hold on for a while.


    The doctor pulled down the little girl’s pants and, in a few moments, injected her with a dose of medicine.


    When the injection was finished, Paulita cried with two big red eyes: “Ooooooooooooooooooooooooo …. Daddy I don’t love you anymore”.N?velDrama.Org content.


    The little girl sobbed and wiped her tears with the back of her hand. Adán Rouco ignored her, carried her and took the medicine prescribed by the doctor and headed for the hospital exit.


    …


    Rouco Group building, in the president’s office.


    Estre Berrocal remembered that herptop was still on the set and wondered if it had broken.


    He was about to go to the set to pick it up when the office door mmed shut.


    “Is anyone there?”


    It was Mica’s voice.


    Mica pushed the door and Estre Berrocal, who was sitting on the sofa, froze, but Mica was not surprised. I saw that you had left yourptop on the set and I assumed you were in Mr. Adán’s office, so I sent it to you”.


    Estre Berrocal was quick to raise her hand to pick it up, Mica was extremely kind and ced theputer on the table, “Don’t move, I remember the cut was deep, sit down.”


    Estre Berrocal was ttered by Mica’s good nature, “Thank you for bringing me theputer”.


    Mica smiled slightly, “Why are you thanking me? I came to thank you, thank goodness you were on the set and saved me from the knife, otherwise I would be in the operating room right now and tomorrow’s headlines would be: “Famous actress Mica stabbed on the set …”. Anyway, I’ll take it as a favor, if you need anything from me in the future, just ask. ”


    Estre Berrocal was confused, she didn’t expect Mica to be so approachable, she rubbed her neck embarrassed, “Actually, I just did…”


    “You blocked a knife for me, whether intentional or not, I thank you. Someday I’ll invite you to dinner with Mr. Adam and bring Paulita.”


    Mica spoke, surprisingly, as if she and Adán Rouco and Paulita were a family of three …


    Didn’t Mica … did not like Adán Rouco?


    Had I really misunderstood?


    Estre Berrocal told the truth: “Miss Mica, in reality, I am not Adán Rouco’s girlfriend”.


    Mica smiled at him intrigued: “Just because you’re not now doesn’t mean you won’t be, give it a try. Besides, I don’t think Mr. Adam is disinterested in you.”


    Estre Berrocal was even more confused, “Miss Mica, don’t you like…?”


    “You don’t think I like Mr. Adam, do you?” Mica seemed to have heard a great joke, “I know, you must have misunderstood because you saw the gossip this morning, how is it possible that Mr. Adam and I …”


    Mica unconsciously imagined that image, how would she and Adán Rouco react when their maism was totally opposite!


    “Then you know Paulita very well…”


    “I know Paulita well because I like children, Adán Rouco and I are not friends, he is a good friend of my husband, so he usually brings Paulita to our house to y, they are two big men talking about things, so Paulita I have to bring her, and since I bring her, I get attached to her. ”


    A husband? Is Mica, the national goddess, married?


    Estre Berrocal had not had time to digest the news when Mica turned her head and smiled at her as she reached the door of her office: “By the way, in the photo at the barst night, I asked Mr. Adam especially to cooperate with me. It was to stifle his arrogance.”


    Mica is a tall, cold beauty in the eyes of the public, which creates a sense of distance at first nce, and Estre Berrocal did not expect her to be so popr.


    “The reason Mr. Adam is willing to work with me, I think he and I are starting from the same point, although he didn’t say it explicitly,st night, we could both see that he was in a bad mood.”


    Estre Berrocal was stunned, was it because of her? Because she had lied to him yesterday?


    Mica and Adán Rouco were really innocent …


    For no apparent reason, Estre Berrocal was both relieved and embarrassed.


    I had thought so badly of Adán Rouco before …


    …


    Paulita had cried all the way.


    By the time we arrived at the Rouco Group, Paulita was exhausted and had gradually stopped crying.


    This little girl is good at everything, but she has been spoiled by the old man. Every time she cries, she cries more, and so she can’t kick the habit.


    If Adán Rouco left her alone, she would stop crying for a while, but if he cajoled and addressed her, she would cry more and more.


    After Adán Rouco led her to the elevator, Paulita threw her arms around his neck and asked, “Papa, why don’t you cajole me?”


    “Dad’s right, why do I have to fob you off?”.


    “Dad you’re fobbing me off, I told you not to take the injection, that it hurts, why don’t you listen to me, Dad?”.


    Adán Rouco had a serious look on his face, “The fever will only go down with the injection, even if your grandfather was there a moment ago, you had to have it. And besides, you’ll still have to take the injection tomorrow!


    “I don’t … ooooooooooooooooooo…”


    The little girl began to cry again with her mouth wide open until she reached the office on the sixty-sixth floor and before father and daughter had entered, Estre Berrocal heard a loud scream.


    As soon as the office door opened and Paulita saw Estre Berrocal, she stretched out her little arms for Estre Berrocal to grab her, “Ooooooooooooooo …. Estre! ”


    Estre Berrocal was trying to hug Paulita when Adán Rouco nced at the wound on Estre Berrocal’s left arm and suddenly sneered, “Leave her alone!”


    “Why are you so mean to the child, Paulita is already suffering from her illness, if you are mean to her, she will suffer even more.”


    Adán Rouco sulked, left Paulita on the sofa and returned to his desk to work, ignoring herpletely.


    Estre Berrocal had felt guilty for misunderstanding him, but now, seeing him so mean to Paulita and remembering how good he was with Dante, she got a little angry and said, “Pa is a child, but she is still your daughter, you are so patient with Dante, why aren’t you half as patient with Pa?” patience.


    Just because Dante was a son, born to Olivia Montes, I was extra fond of him, right?
