-Romina,” Julio thought it was a pretty name.
Romina heard him read her name softly, blushed and secretly looked at him.
Although Julio was almost fifty years old, he was still very elegant and had the unique temperament of a mature man, which was quite attractive.
Julio felt a little proud when he discovered that she was secretly looking at him.
-If you don’t know where your house is, you can stay here temporarily,” Julio pointed to the house behind him, very generous.
-Will your family be upset if I live here? -Romina was a little uneasy.
Julio waved his hand:
-Don’t worry, it’s my spare house that’s been unoccupied, you can be…..
He didn’t say the last sentence, but as he looked at Romina’s face, he had an idea in his heart.
Romina had nowhere to go, so she agreed.
The two entered the house together, Romina was very skilled, and quickly cleaned everything inside and out, seeing that there were still some vegetables left, she made several dishes with very few vegetables.
She was diligent and beautiful, so he liked her even more.
In just three hours, the relationship between the two developed rapidly and there was a vague lingering ambiguity between them.
Julio was a little reluctant when he left, Romina stood in the doorway to say goodbye to him.
Seeing her pleasant appearance as she held the door frame, Julio finally couldn’t stand it any longer, ran over and hugged her:
-Romina, be my lover, I promise I will treat you well. Although I can’t give you a name now, but if my wife has it, you will have it.
Romina put her face in his arms and nodded after a long time.
Julio was very excited.
When his car was out of sight, Romina’s soft expressions disappeared and she went back into the house to make a phone call:
-Mr. Santangel, I already met with Julio, he loves me very much. I will give you all the information you need.
Romina listened to the instructions on the other end of the phone, nodded solemnly and hung up the phone.
Seeing the delicate furniture in the room, she smiled. She didn’t have amnesia, but Umberto had found her especially for Julio.
Romina was that kind of woman, but once she was almost killed. It was the Santangel Family who rescued her, and she was always grateful. The Santangel Family redeemed her and let her get close to Julio, and she agreed.
Her previous job was to deal with all kinds of men, now that she was older, she couldn’t compare with young girls. The assignment Umberto gave her was exactly what she wanted, and it was her best option.
Romina hummed a song and cleared all the leftovers from the table, while she thought about how to get Julio to let his guard down and find out what Umberto needed.
Julio returned home, just in time to see his wife leave the room.
The woman looked at his cheerful expression, and a trace of suspicion shone in his eyes:
-Why are you coming back so late? Didn’t you leave the company very early? It’s been almost three hours.
Julio’s expression froze for a moment and he said:
-I was hungry, so I ate out. I’ve been busy all day and that was my first meal today.
The woman did smell the food, believed it and asked:
-You smile a lot more today than before, what good things happened?
Julio was very impatient that she asked so much, compared to Romina’s kindness, he became even more annoyed and said:
-The company’s affairs have been resolved, can’t I be happy?
-I just asked a question, why are you so angry?
I was so abnormal today, the wife became suspicious.

Albina also learned from Umberto that the Seco Family intervened, looking at Umberto’s sad face in the video, she shook her head and smiled:
-The Carballal Family has existed for so long and it is impossible to destroy it so fast. You’ve tried so hard, don’t worry, I haven’t made any progress either!
Umberto finally relaxed. He didn’t tell her that he had placed a woman next to Julio.
He just told her mysteriously:
-We haven’t found any evidence about your father’s affairs. The coroner who performed the autopsy on your father earlier also passed away, all the clues are deciphered, but I have set the hook. Just wait, the fish will take the bait, and when there is news, we will use the evidence to clarify your father’s innocence.
Albina was very excited when she heard that news, seeing that Umberto didn’t say any details, she didn’t ask any more questions. In her heart, there was nothing Umberto could not do.
Through the video, Umberto discovered that she was looking at him with adoration, he couldn’t help swallowing.
-Albina, don’t look at me like that.
Albina saw that his expression was weird and his face turned red. He was wearing baggy house clothes and had just showered, his hair was slightly wet, his skin was white, his slender fingers hooked around her neck, revealing her delicate collarbone.
Albina also swallowed unconsciously, wanting to touch him. As soon as this thought arose, she quickly shook her head.
Seeing her shake her head and sigh, Umberto didn’t even notice the smile and fondness in her eyes growing stronger and stronger.
There was an exclamation from the doorway, Albina looked back and said to Umberto:
-I hang up first and I don’t know what happened to Ariana.
After she finished speaking, she quickly hung up the video, Umberto didn’t have time to speak. He looked at the black screen, he was a bit annoyed. He still had to find a way to bring Albina back.
Albina rushed out of the room and saw Ariana sitting on the couch, chatting, her cheeks red and a smile at the corner of her mouth.
The phone rang, Ariana looked at the phone and suddenly flashed a smile, she looked like a girl in heat.
-Who are you talking to! -Albina’s head tilted, trying to look at the phone screen.
But Ariana put the phone away in panic and unconsciously hid it behind her back. Seeing Albina’s stunned expression, her face turned even redder:
-No one.
Albina raised her eyebrows.
-Why are you so nervous? Show me!
After hesitating for a long time, Ariana took out her cell phone and handed it to him, muttering:
-As you told me about the affair between you and Umberto before, so I’m not hiding it from you. Just don’t tell Umberto.
Albina nodded:
-Don’t worry, I’m not a big mouth.
After saying that, Albina looked at the screen and her eyes suddenly opened wide.
Ariana was talking to Santiago.
The screen was full of messages, the two had been chatting for a long time and the words were full of affection.
Albina raised her head and looked at her with a complicated expression:
-Are you together?
