However, Yolanda heard what her son had not yet said and instantly burst into tears, her face full of pain.
-Leonardo… Leonardo you really want mom to die, you used to be so filial to mom, you know mom likes to eat roast duck from the Jufu house, you bring mom every time you pass by, every year you give mom a present on her birthday, now, you want to give up mom for this little bitch, you are so let me get off….
His mother’s lost attitude did not soften Leonardo’s grip on Olivia and, without letting go of her hand, he looked at her and said earnestly.
-Mom, why am I not disappointed? I love you and I love Olivia, why can’t you let her go? I don’t care about the right family, why aren’t Olivia and I subsidiaries of yours? You remember a few days ago, at Olivia and I’s wedding, you killed our baby yourself, it was your baby too, how could you do that…?
Olivia’s heart clenches with pain as she thinks of that innocent little life, how happy she has been during the last months thanks to that unborn child, and how painful it is at this moment….
Micaela, Alba and Olivia’s mother also shed tears….
Leonardo’s eyes reddened and his chest became even more congested before continuing.
-The other day was a great day and because of you it was ruined. Today, it was also a great day, Olivia and I saw hope and we felt we could start over, and you ruined it again, are you my mother? What the hell are you clinging to?
Yolanda’s heart pounded at his words, her brain felt a momentary dizziness, something was about to come crashing down, and the female voice rang in her ears again.
-You have to separate them! He must.
His eyes, which had been somewhat lax, instantly focused and he spoke in a strong tone.
-I only insist, with me and without her, insist on her, you are an ungrateful son, you feel for me, you feel for your father, you feel for the ancestors of the Pinto family! If you dare to go with her, call your father on the way and ask him to come and collect my body.
Olivia’s father shook his head and Olivia’s mother wiped the tears from her face and stepped forward, reaching out, to pull her daughter out of Leonardo’s arms.
-Olivia, this is too big a crime, let’s make them whole.
-No!
Leonardo refused, putting his arm around Olivia in a twist to avoid Olivia’s mother.
Olivia looked at Leonardo, he was so determined to be with her, to give up on the Pinto family, to give up on his parents, there was a world of difference between Leonardo being moved by a little temptation from Yun Ge at that moment….
She is truly, immensely happy and has no regrets….
In this situation, it is Leonardo who suffers the most, she can’t bear to make things difficult for him…..
Olivia reached out her hand and covered Leonardo’s face, looking at him with tearful eyes.
-Leonardo, let me talk to your mother, okay?
Leonardo looked at her and shook his head.
-No, you will compromise yourself with her, I won’t allow it!
-Maybe I can convince her?
Leonardo looked at her, unconvinced.
-Leonardo, let me try, you won’t let go of me whether I fail or not, will you?
Micaela buried her head directly into Carlos’ arms and hugged him tightly, tears were falling like rain, Olivia had tried too hard, why did she have to go through this, she already had the feeling that Olivia had made some decision….
Carlos hugged her, rubbed her head and watched as Leonardo let go of Olivia….
Alba also wiped away her tears and let herself be carried into Ernesto’s arms.
Olivia turned, looked at Yolanda and sniffled, making her voice as calm as possible.
-I know you don’t like me, I’ll call you Tia, shall we talk alone? We both love Leonardo, so let’s stop making things difficult for him and let’s discuss the best way out, the best of both worlds, ok?
Yolanda looked at Olivia with a critical eye, how could there be a way to have it both ways, she would never want her as daughter-in-law of the Pinto family!
But seeing the sincerity in her eyes, could it be that she might actually be willing to give it up willingly?
Olivia realized she was shaken and reached out to him, whispering.
-Put the knife down first, don’t hurt yourself, how hard it will be for Leonardo and Uncle if you hurt yourself?
Seeing that she didn’t move, Olivia tried to step forward but Leonardo grabbed her wrist so she wouldn’t move forward, her mother had a knife in her hand in case she got a bad idea and hurt Olivia by mistake….
Suddenly the fruit knife was heard to fall to the ground….
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Olivia let go of Leonardo’s hand and took a step forward.
-Shall we go sit in the garden? Just the two of us, I promise we’ll be able to give a good answer.
With that, she took the initiative and headed for the front door.
Yolanda struggled for a second and followed.
Leonardo also tried to follow, and Olivia turned and explained.
-Leonardo, entertain your friends and don’t come and bother us.
Leonardo still wants to follow, worried that Olivia will be harassed by her mother, she is thin and has just been discharged from the hospital?
said Carlos.
-Leonardo, leave them, I will have bodyguards nearby to keep her safe.
With that, he pulled out his cell phone and called Raul, who was outside.
Olivia’s father joined the group on the couch. Olivia’s mother, apprehensive and unable to sit still, peeked out onto the floor to see her daughter and Yolanda sitting where she and Micaela had sat in the morning.
They seemed to be talking quite fluently, without much physical action, moderately, and Olivia’s mother calmed slightly, but still couldn’t bring herself to blink and stare.
Micaela looked dejected and Carlos put his arm around her shoulders and let her head rest on his.
Ernesto takes the initiative to prepare the tea and puts the first cup in front of Olivia’s father.
-Uncle, you can see that our Leonardo has grown up a lot now, he definitely won’t condemn your daughter, don’t worry.
Olivia’s father nodded slightly and looked at Leonardo, who was also fidgeting back and forth restlessly.
What he sees is nothing but Leonardo’s devotion to Olivia, and his actions and words over the past few days, including the conversation he just had with her mother, show his determination to be with Olivia….
For the first time, Olivia’s father, never one to procrastinate, has a headache about how to plan an outing for his daughter….
Half an hour later, Olivia entered and Yolanda left the villa immediately.
Leonardo hurried to put his arms around her.
-How did it go, wife? Did you give in to her? Whatever the outcome of your talk, I’ll never let go of you!
At this angle of Alba’s vision, Olivia’s fists are clenched tightly and shake vaguely….
Olivia’s cheerful voice rang out.
-Leonardo, your mother and I came to an agreement that I would live here and not go to the Pinto family mansion, and that you would have to go back to running the company properly, with the one in the house she was in as primary and ours as secondary. Promise not to make a scene again.
Leonardo asked, somewhat incredulous.
-Really?
