Hermosa Manfred’s Authority
Have to say that Hermosa Manfred’s word was powerful. rissa Swift directly skipped the step to
plead with Antonio Baron. “What’s wrong, grandma?” Antonio frowned and asked impatiently, but he
didn’t hold rissa nor say anything to let her stay.
rissa sighed and was reluctant to give in to Hermosa. In her mind, she cursed both Hermosa
Manfred and Adide Swift again and again.
Finally, she pretended to be tender and said to Antonio, “Antonio, it’s my fault. I went to see my sister,
however, her mood was bad and shouted at me that my child was a bastard. I got angry to hit her, then
grandma came in and refused to hear my exnation. It’s all my fault, I will leave now.”
She walked towards the iron gate but her slow pace betrayed her.
“Grandma, you must have misunderstood rissa. Doesn’t the woman sow discord?” After hearing
Antonio defending for rissa, Hermosa got speechless and angry, then she hit his back with her
crutch.
“What are you doing?” Antonio moved and dodged Hermosa’s next hit.
“You’re good-for-nothing. You married Adide but doesn’t cherish her, and you even fool around with
the bad woman. I am old but neither blind nor deaf. You get me so angry.” Hermosa was really angry.
After taking a few breaths, she said again, “Well, I will stay here for a few days. You dare to bully
Adide again.”
Antonio never dared to have any objections to Hermosa''s decision. He nodded and walked to patiently
Hermosa warned before leaving, “Treat Adide well, otherwise my crutch won’t let you go.”
Adide got nervous because she hadn’t slept with Antonio for a long time. But this time it’s not her
who asked Hermosa toe here. Antonio nced at her coldly, hummed and then enter the
bathroom. This eased the awkwardness between them. Adide took a long breath and began slowly
adjusting her mood.
“Adide, where is my bathrobe?” Adide heard Antonio’s disgruntled voice from the bathroom after
sitting by the bed for a little while. As they hadn’t slept together for a long time, his bathrobe had been

packed by Adide.
“Wait a minute, I will give it to you soon.” Adide said nervously. When Antonio stepped out of the
bathroom, Adide stood up immediately. Afraid that Antonio would misunderstand, she exined in a
low voice, “Antonio, I didn’t ask grandma toe.”
Antonio looked at her and went directly to bed. Adide thought Antonio didn’t believe. She also went
to bed, holding his arm tightly with her hands and exining, “It’s really not me.”
Antonio turned and looked into her big innocent eyes. Her pyjama is lovely and a little faded with
cartoon doll patterns on it. He smelled a tantalizing aroma from her and immediately got ignited. He got
up and pressed against her. Adide screamed. They hadn’t have sex for a long time. Besides, she
was even pregnant. She was afraid that Antonio would force her to have sex. Panic could be seen on
her wless face, “Antonio, please, don’t do that!”
“Not?” Antonio snickered, reached out and hooked Adide''s chin, "Yes or no depends on you?" Then
he flirted with her which surprised her. She screamed in a hurry without considering whether it’s
shameful , “Grandma, grandma.”
Unexpectedly, Hermosa was still waiting outside the door. “Bad boy, I will embarrass you if you dare to
bully Adide.” Upon hearing Adide’s yelling, she immediately knocked the door with her crutch and
shouted loudly.
The two people in the room obviously didn''t expect Hermosa would still be there. Adide''s face
instantly turned red like a cooked crab. Distracted by this episode, Antonio lost interest, turned over
and went asleep alone. Not having heard more sounds except even breathing, Hermosa went back to
her own bedroom with satisfaction.
Managed to sleep with Antonio, Adide turned over and over again and failed to go asleep. Turning
over to look at Antonio, the expression on his face was so soft with his eyes closed tightly and his
mouth squeezed. In such a sleepless night, Adide began to reminisce endlessly about the past.
Once she told herself not to care about Antonio and not to love him, but now looking at this harmless
face, she still can''t help reminiscing about the past.
Once is a word so far away, no one could go back to the past nor reach the future. She didn''t know
when she started to keep an eye on Antonio. She remembered that she passed through nearly the
whole campus just to peek him. She pulled Hanna Battle to run in everywhere of the campus just to run
into him. Her favorite ss was PE, not because she liked sports but she could overlook the
yground from her ssroom. When Antonio had PE sses, it’s her happiest moment. As their PE
teacher was the same one, their PE sses were staggered. So she could always see him when he
had PE sses. She could easily found him among more than fifty people and then she couldn’t move
her eyes after that. She saw Antonio having long jump, doing radio gymnastics and ying basketball.
However, she didn’t know him liking her sister. If she knew that in the beginning, she couldn’t love him
anyway.
Once Hanna said, “Adide, just confess if you like him! Write him a love letter, give him gifts,
encounter with him, aren’t you afraid that he won’t like you?” She did write love letters which she didn’t
send him and were still ced in the books. She did make confessions but she did it when
encountering with him and he couldn’t hear that. As for gifts, she also sent but she asked others to
send and not to tell him who did.
“If I knew I can marry Antonio in the past, I should be very happy.” The sudden thought made Adide
time. Before thinking about it clearly, she stretched out, and at this moment Antonio woke up suddenly
and grabbed her hand.
