Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

Santino Yepes, who was about to enter the elevator, immediately stood up and covered his eyes.

“That what… BOSS, I didn’t see anything, go on you guys, go on you guys…”

Santino Yepes raised his hand to press the elevator’s close button when Adán Rouco straightened up, put a hand in his pocket, turned around and blocked the door with a long arm, and said coldly to Santino Yepes, “Do you think I feel like going on?”

“…”

The corners of Santino Yepes’ mouth twitched, the boss wasn’t going to hold a grudge for this later and give him the boot!

Adán Rouco looked again at Estrella Berrocal, who was still locked in the elevator with a red face, and spoke in a soft voice: “Don’t you want to get out, do you want me to take you?”

Estrella Berrocal blushed even more, who wants me to carry her?

Santino Yepes immediately said with a smile, “Boss, lunch for two has been ordered in your office.”

The last words, “for two,” were slightly provocative, and even the look in his eyes had a deeper meaning.

Estrella Berrocal followed Adán Rouco to the president’s office, one after the other.

On the coffee table, next to the sofa, there are two meals, several dishes with aromas and flavors that whet the appetite.

Estrella Berrocal, already hungry, sat down on the sofa to contemplate the delicious food and was about to pick up the chopsticks to eat when Adán Rouco pulled out a set of keys from his desk and threw it in front of her.

“What is this?”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Estrella Berrocal’s eyes flickered to the keys of a BMW.

“Since you entered the contest for the prize money to buy a car, now that I’ve bought it for you, you can quit the contest.”

Estrella Berrocal frowned, she had thought that Adán Rouco had understood her in the elevator and had stopped opposing her participation in the Yahua animation contest, but she had not expected the man to be so stubborn.

Estrella Berrocal didn’t even touch the car keys, she put the china she was holding on the coffee table and said, “If you have given me the car so I won’t participate in the contest, then I don’t want the car, Adán Rouco, I have my own ambitions, if you really want the best for me, please don’t get involved in this. I’m definitely going to participate.”

The woman was even more stubborn than he was.

Adán Rouco pulled a limited edition platinum credit card from his wallet and dropped it in front of her, “This card has no limit.”

Estrella Berrocal stared at the platinum credit card, “Adán Rouco, you have done everything possible to keep me out of this contest.”

She picked up the credit card, pinned it to her and stood up to leave the office, the man grabbed her wrist and furrowed his eyebrows, his dark eyes boring into her irritated face, “Where are you going?”

Estrella Berrocal curved her lips, “Mr. Adán, I’m full, you can have lunch.”

He threw off his shackles and quickly ran out of the office.

Adán Rouco glared at the credit card lying at his feet and the car keys on his desk.

What was in this woman’s head that she didn’t want an unlimited credit card or a car from him, but had to go to this stupid contest?

For one million dollars?

Or did he really want to spend an evening with Jonathan Tasis?

Adán Rouco sulked in his chest and dialed a phone with a sullen look on his face.

Olivia Montes, who was having lunch, was not expecting a call from Adán Rouco at that hour and happily picked up the phone.

“Adam, have you eaten yet? Do you want me to come over and eat with you?”.

“No, I’ve already eaten.”

Adán Rouco cast a cold glance at the untouched food on the coffee table, the fire in his chest growing even more.

“So … you called me is…?”

“Earlier you proposed to give a million cash prize in the winning work of Yahua animation contest, I thought carefully, it is only a small contest, not even a competition, the prize item is canceled, even if there is no cash prize, they should give their best, the creative department original artist so high annual salary, not for nothing. ”

“So what?”

The award program was a trifle, Adán Rouco had always been generous in his work, only the annual reward for capable employees of the Rouco Group was generous enough, the prize money was more than the annual salary of an equivalent employee of an average company for a year, only this time, how could Adán Rouco call her specifically for a small prize of one million and ask her to cancel it?

In the past, Adán Rouco would not have been bothered by such a trivial matter.

And, as the award had been announced a long time ago, to withdraw it now would, I fear, create some hard-to-convince gossip.

“Adam, it’s just that the award has been on the street for a long time, and if we were to withdraw it now, I’m afraid there would be complaints that the Rouco Group is not keeping its word.”

Adán Rouco spoke coldly: “The award is open to anyone, except Estrella Berrocal”.

Olivia Montes froze and then, in good humor, smiled, “Okay, then we’ll do as you say.”

After hanging up the phone, Olivia Montes hooked her red lips in triumph.

Did Adam mean to say that this time, whatever happened, Estrella Berrocal would not let herself win the contest?

What was she afraid of? Even Adán was on her side and was helping her to exclude Estrella Berrocal, who would soon be expelled from the Rouco Group.

…

The Martínez family.

Iván Martínez had just arrived home when he saw Iván Martínez’s father bowing his head in dismay.

“Dad, what’s wrong with you?”.

As soon as he heard Iván Martínez’s voice, the darkness under Iván Martínez’s father’s eyes lit up. “Iván, have you reconciled with Irene in the last few days, has it worked or not?”.

Ivan Martinez frowned and shook his head, “Dad, I think Irene and I are done.”

“You … can’t separate yourself from Irene Guillén just like that, we at Grupo Martínez are on the verge of not being able to support ourselves and without other companies to finance us, we at Grupo Martínez will go bankrupt. ”

Iván Martínez’s face turned white, “Dad, how can the company’s situation be so serious? Why, why didn’t you tell me before?”.

“Would it have been useful for me to tell you? I tell you, if I had told Irene, I would have been afraid they would have repudiated the marriage, but you were about to get married and then Estrella Berrocal messed it up, and if you hadn’t married Irene, the Guilléns wouldn’t have helped the Martínez, much less paid for the Martínez Group to go ahead. Iván, I think the Martínez Group is going to go bankrupt”.

“Dad, I’m going to beg Irene not to be so cruel as to see our family go bankrupt! Hold on, I’ll be right there!”.

…

Estrella Berrocal was about to leave work when she received a call from Iván Martínez.

She didn’t want to answer, her relationship with Iván Martínez had ended three years ago, but the phone rang for a long time and Estrella Berrocal picked it up with a sullen look on her face.

“Mr. Ivan, what can I do for you?”

“Star …”

Estrella Berrocal was stunned, as Iván Martínez, on the other end of the phone, cried in a sobbing voice.

“Estrella … I am completely done with Irene and now our family business is going bankrupt, I went to beg Irene to help the Martinez Group, Irene had no regard for my former friendship with her and said she wouldn’t lend me a dime, I don’t know why now all the banks won’t lend to our family …”

Estrella Berrocal had no idea that Ivan Martinez and the Martinez family had fallen into such a state overnight, “Why are you calling me to tell me this? For me, the more decayed you are now, the happier I am, and don’t forget what you did to me in the first place.”

Iván Martínez deserves to be in this situation now.

Ivan Martinez shook his head, “No, I’m not calling to ask for your help, I’m desperate, but I want to apologize before I leave.”

Before he left? Did he want to commit suicide?
