Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

Estrella Berrocal almost laughed out loud at the serious-yet-indifferent tone of his voice, her clear, watery eyes boring into his dark ones as she said, word for word, “Adán Rouco, has anyone ever said that sometimes you have a very bad heart?”

“You’re the first to say I’m bad, but there are many who say I’m cunning.”

Estrella Berrocal smiled sweetly, looking at him with her crescent moon, and nodded: “Well, clever!”.

The man’s eyes darkened, “Cunning I recognize, old man, no.”

Estrella Berrocal nodded ingratiatingly and bitchily, “You are not old, Mr. Adam you are in the prime of your life, how can you be old?”.

With that face, that body, that temperament, even if he was in show business, with just a kilo of powder and a kilo of eyeliner on his face he could kill a lot of weak young men! That’s him.

Estrella Berrocal was so happy to have him take it out on her that she wrapped her arms around his neck and put her face in his arms, blushing and murmuring, “But I like it.”

Who doesn’t like to be teased by the man you like?

Moreover, that man was Adán Rouco.

Even if he stood by and did nothing, it was enough to please a woman, and if he pampered any woman a little more, she would fall for sure.

Estrella Berrocal was no saint, and she happened to be more or less obsessed with the face, like young girls today, and she had to admit that the first thing she was attracted to was Adán Rouco’s looks; after all, it was always easier to like a handsome and extraordinary man than an ugly one.

“What did you just say?”

He must have heard it, although it was a small voice, and he pretended not to hear it.

She made a move to get up, but Adán Rouco was not one to let her get away with it so easily.

Estrella Berrocal blushed, but her body was honest enough to lean into his arms, burying herself in his chest, listening to the strong beat of his heart, the corners of her lips rippling. “Then I’ll … sleep here?”

The silence in the study was total, and she curled up in his arms for a long while, listening to the occasional rustle of the pages of his flipping through papers, sleepless, remembering the bouquet of red roses he had given Micaela during the day, and now thinking about it, she still ate it up a little.

“Why … did you send roses to Micaela?”

Or red roses, aren’t red roses usually used for lovers?

Adán Rouco, who was still leafing through the papers, spoke in a quadruple voice: “You are only allowed to jump into the lake to save your ex-boyfriend, but I am not allowed to send red roses to women?”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

“Iván Martínez fell into the water because I accidentally pushed him, that’s why I saved him…”

In the middle of her explanation, Estrella Berrocal thought for a moment and noticed something different, her watery eyes fixed on the handsome face of Adán Rouco. “You’re not jealous, are you?”

Is that why they sent Santino Yepes to the set to deliver Micaela’s red roses?

The man had his lips pursed and his face so emotionally distant that he could not see any difference, Estrella Berrocal said: “If you don’t say anything, it means that you agree. … Well …”

Before she could finish the sentence, the man pushed her body against his chest and the desk, his thin lips blocking her chattering mouth.

The man released Estrella Berrocal only when she could barely breathe, but his dark eyes stared at her, “If you keep making noise, it will be more than just a kiss.”

The dark look in her eyes made Estrella Berrocal shut up immediately.

Adam Rouco had tormented her for hours the night before, and if he did it again tonight, she would probably fall apart tomorrow, and besides, her arm was still bruised!

After all, it was normal for a man to pamper a woman when he was obsessed with her body.

But that didn’t mean anything either, at least not to the extent of love.

He was still calm and self-possessed, but she was now becoming more and more obsessed with Adán Rouco, and her small hands could not help but wrap around his waist, smelling softly the fresh, cold scent and the light mixture of tobacco coming from his shirt. “Adán Rouco, now are we … in love?

“I’m not in a relationship with you right now, am I playing house with you?”

“…”

Inside her heart overflowed wisps of sweet, sticky, sticky sauce, enveloping her heart and almost drowning it.

Adán Rouco got up with her in his arms and walked on his long legs from the study to the master bedroom.

“Are you done with all your work?”.

“Now there is more important work.”

Estrella Berrocal was stunned and did not answer, “What?”.

“Take you to bed.”

As Adán Rouco carried her to the big bed, Estrella Berrocal blushed and laughed: “I still haven’t bathed!”.

With her injured arm, she had no problem squatting outside the bathtub with Felipa while Felipa helped Paulita, but now it was her turn to bathe herself …

Adán Rouco took her to the bathroom, but Estrella Berrocal refused: “No, I’m not going to take a bath today, I’m not sweating anyway, put me down…”.

The man stared at her and spoke earnestly, “I’m a clean freak.”

“But I don’t have a cleaning fetish…”

“But we’re going to sleep in the same bed and you’ll have to get cleaned up.”

The corners of Estrella Berrocal’s mouth twitched until Adán Rouco took her to the bathroom and stripped her of all her clothes, and Estrella Berrocal felt something strange, as if Adán Rouco had played a joke on her.

The bath was so long and tortuous, so ambiguous, that it became an excuse for Adán Rouco to “eat” her, and Estrella Berrocal, blushing, fell against the wall of the bathtub, covered her eyes and swore that she would never bathe with Adán Rouco again!

…

The next morning, when Estrella Berrocal woke up, the first person she did not feel comfortable with was Paulita. After taking Paulita’s temperature, which was normal, the little one, wilted from being sick, pitifully asked her, “Daddy says I have to go get an injection today. will you help me beg daddy not to go for the injection?”.

Estrella Berrocal stroked the little girl’s head, “But if you don’t go for the injection today, what if you get a fever again, Paulita, be good and go for another injection today and you’ll be completely fine, okay?”

“But the injection hurts.”

Estrella Berrocal handed Paulita a fruit candy. “Estrella didn’t like needles when she was little, but she couldn’t heal without them, so Estrella’s father gave her a piece of candy to put in her mouth when she had her shots, so it wouldn’t hurt so much. ”

The little girl took the candy and asked with a little frown of curiosity, “Does it really not hurt when you eat candy to get a shot?”

“You can try.”

As soon as Adán Rouco comes down from the bedroom, he sees the mother and daughter, wrapped in the morning sun, Estrella Berrocal handing Paulita a piece of toast with strawberry jam, to which the little girl takes a bite with her very white teeth, and then he spoons the white porridge from a small bowl, with Estrella Berrocal giving him a gentle glance from time to time.

Adán Rouco’s icy heart showed the slightest sign of warming.
