Dulcina Calvo ran out of her apartment in Ciudad de la Costa crying and crossed the road in disarray, being about to be hit by a car.
Luckily, Esteban Zaragosa reached her just in time and pulled her into a protective embrace.
The white van stopped and cursed, “You don’t have eyes, dammit! Drop dead if you want to! Don’t be a pain in the ass on the street.”
Esteban Zaragosa glared at the car’s owner with a sharp look and, realizing that he was not to be trifled with, walked away in anger.
Dulcina Calvo shoved him away, her eyes full of disgust at him.
“Get off me! Don’t touch me, Esteban Zaragosa, you bastard! You have a wife, why do you want to mess with me?”.
Not only did he provoke her, he slept with her!
Dulcina Calvo was trembling with rage, her heart felt as if a knife had been thrust hard into it, and it was breaking and bleeding by the minute.
Esteban Zaragosa let himself be scolded: “Dear, I am not actually married to her”.
“Esteban Zaragosa, I’m not going to believe anything you say now! That’s called cheating, you know, I’m a good girl too, I’m not going to be a mistress, what happened last night, and before, let’s pretend we were wrong, please don’t come looking for me in the future, I’m not going to be a third party!”
Dulcina Calvo bit her little lip, tears rolling down her face, and stubbornly turned her head and walked away.
Esteban Zaragosa stood still, took a deep breath and raised his hand to squeeze his forehead bone.
Damn it, Claudio Belles had really killed him!
Esteban Zaragosa looked at the little woman’s back, but could not let go and, with long legs, went after her again.
“I’ll take you home.”
Dulcina Calvo pushed his hand away: “Don’t touch me! You’re a married man! Please, Mr. Esteban, take care of the repercussions!”.
His eyes were red, filled with rage, anger, anguish and heartache …
Esteban Zaragosa felt helpless, his heart felt like it was being punched hard, a dull ache, “Fine, I won’t touch you, but I don’t feel comfortable with you in this state, I have to see you at home.”
“The state I’m in is none of your business!”
Dulcina Calvo wiped her tears with her small hands and buried her head in front of her.
But Esteban Zaragosa kept following her and she had to call a friend.
She didn’t know who to call, but there were colleagues at the hospital who were close to her, but they also knew Esteban Zaragosa, and it wouldn’t be good for anyone if the story went viral.
“Star, where are you, can you come and get me?”.
Estrella Berrocal was about to go to bed when she received the call, but when she heard Dulcina Calvo crying on the other end of the line, she got worried and, without asking, asked for Dulcina Calvo’s location, called her driver and they went together.
…
Half an hour later, Estrella Berrocal picked up Dulcina Calvo.
Estrella Berrocal sat down in the car, rolled down the window and said to Esteban Zaragosa, who was outside the window: “Dr. Esteban, then … we will go first”.
Dulcina Calvo was anxious and choked out, “Let’s go.”
I really didn’t want to see him again for a second.
This big liar! Cheating her out of her feelings!
Estrella Berrocal looked at Dulcina Calvo and then at Esteban Zaragosa, and the scales of her heart, finally tipping in Dulcina Calvo’s favor, said to the chauffeur, “Facundo Montes, go away.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
…
In the car, Dulcina Calvo grabbed a pack of tissues and continued crying and blowing her nose, which was red.
Estrella Berrocal calmed her down: “Dulcina, don’t cry, your eyes are swollen”.
Dulcina Calvo’s small mouth flattened, “But it’s hard for me … how could I have been so stupid … so stupid … Estrella I want to strangle myself right now!”
“What’s up Esteban Zaragosa has harassed you?”
Dulcina Calvo pursed her lips and remained silent, tears streaming down her face.
Estrella Berrocal asked coyly, “If it’s Esteban Zaragosa who bullies you, shall I ask Adán to teach him a lesson from you?”
“Star, I want to sue him!”
“… sue him?”
What was the deepest hatred to sue him?
Dulcina Calvo cried with special sadness: “He cheated on me! He has a wife! Why didn’t anyone tell me … he was married! Estrella … Why did he make fun of my feelings? I’m so uncomfortable now… uncomfortable that I can hardly breathe…”
She snorted, pitifully, and Estrella Berrocal, of course, felt sorry for her, but was even more surprised.
“Could I be wrong about this … How can Esteban Zaragosa be married? Adam is his best friend, but Adam didn’t mention that he was married. If Adam knew, he would have asked me to remind him. ”
“Today … today I was humiliated to the core. His wife … his wife came to the house to catch me in adultery and I didn’t even know I was his wife and I accused his wife of molesting us, I was so stupid, how could I be so stupid?”
“What, is your wife here?”
Dulcina Calvo told the whole story and Estrella Berrocal was furious.
“I thought Esteban Zaragosa was a decent man, but I didn’t expect such excesses! How could you have deceived him! How can you … be so shameless when you are already married!”
Dulcina Calvo was heartbroken and wiped her tears as she said: “How can my life be so miserable? It’s okay for that scum Chijun to cheat on me, but now this Esteban Zaragosa … yes he’s married! Woooooooooooooo …”
Dulcina Calvo buried herself in Estrella Berrocal’s arms, snotting and crying.
Estrella Berrocal also felt sorry for her: “What a scum! Don’t ever have contact with him again”.
But what can you do about feelings that have cheated you?
…
On the Coast City floor.
Claudio Belles looks at the shoe cabinet in the entryway, where a pair of dark men’s slippers sits next to a pair of light pink bunny-eared slippers.
In the bathroom, the toilet glasses, a couple of them, even the toothbrush.
Heh, still hell, was Esteban Zaragosa really in love with that girl?
A couple of cups … such a childish thing to do along?
Esteban Zaragosa is a tough guy who licked blood at gunpoint, when would he ever do something so boring and uninteresting with a girl?
Next to the television, there were a few romantic movies, the cheesy kind, which is not Esteban Zaragosa’s usual style or taste, and probably what the woman wanted to see.
But these are not the things that irritate Claudio Belles the most.
What caught her attention most was the small, dried, bloody flower on the sheets of the dark bedroom bed.
Oh, Esteban Zaragosa had played with a chick!
What, was he going to take responsibility for that woman?
Soon Esteban Zaragosa returned from the outside.
His face was cold and his eyes were wild.
Claudius Belles leaned against the doorframe with his arms raised in the air and sneered, “What, are you sad you didn’t get your heart back?”
Esteban Zaragosa’s gaze was cold and metallic, very cold and chilling: “Claudio Belles, you better get out of here now, or I can’t guarantee that I won’t get angry when I see your face and end your little life”.
“Go on, I’ve chased away your heartthrob, you kill me, and look at you now, hiding in The Holy City, playing the vulgar doctor, just to chase a woman…”.
“Fuck you.”
Claudio Belles gritted his teeth and deliberately provoked her: “Does she know who you are? If she knew who you were, would she want to be with you? There’s no way to live like a normal person when you’re in a precarious situation like ours! The only thing you can do is stay with me.”
“Is it all said and done?”
Claudio Belles raised an eyebrow, “Yes, I’ve said enough, by the way, I forgot to tell you that this time I came to The Holy City because my guardian asked me to find you and tell you to return to Rome as soon as possible and not to stay here, wasting your energies on childish loves!”
Claudio Belles brushed him with sarcastic provocation: “That girl, where did you buy her? Tastes good, doesn’t it? Have enough fun then…”
