Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

Hospital, outside the operating room.

“The child has lost too much blood and desperately needs a blood transfusion, but there was a car accident in the back tonight and there are too many people who need blood transfusions and the blood bank has no AB blood! Who in the family has AB blood?”.

Olivia Montes was crying and grabbed Adán Rouco’s hand, “Adán, please help Dante, I know you are AB, you have the same blood type as Dante!”

Adán Rouco helped Olivia Montes up, “sister-in-law, don’t be nervous, I’m going to save Dante”.

On the one hand, Dante was the only blood left to his older brother, and on the other, Dante was the grandson of the old man and his nephew, it was impossible for him not to save him.

Adán Rouco followed the nurse into the laboratory and asked, “How is the child now?”

As the nurse was drawing blood from Adán Rouco for tests, she said, “You’ve lost a lot of blood, but luckily you haven’t touched any vital organs, so you should be fine with a blood transfusion.”

When Adán Rouco came out after the blood draw, his face was a little pale.

Olivia Montes looked at him and choked up, “Adam … thank you, thank you … I really don’t know what I would have done if anything had happened to Dante! ”

Olivia Montes buried herself in his arms, tears streaming down her face.

Adán Rouco stiffened slightly, but finally reached up and patted Olivia Montes’ shoulder.

Santino Yepes arrived from the Rouco Group and brought the cell phone that Adán Rouco had left in his office.

“Boss, your phone.”

Adán Rouco opened his phone to find several missed calls and a text message, all from Estrella Berrocal.

He had been in a hurry when he heard about Dante’s car accident and had left his phone in the office.

…

Around here, Estrella Berrocal was about to drive home after leaving the cinema.

Just as he got into his car, his cell phone rang and the caller ID showed it was none other than Adán Rouco.

Her teary eyes tremble and she hurriedly picks it up, “Hello, where are you?”.

The man there, his voice low and a little tired, “I’m at the hospital, Dante was in a car accident.”

“What?”

Estrella Berrocal was stunned, had Dante been in a car accident?

His first thought was that Olivia Montes had found out that Adán Rouco was going out with her tonight and was deliberately using Dante to wreak havoc …

But that thought, it was too malevolent.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

Estrella Berrocal shook her head, dismissing the thought; Olivia Montes, however malicious she might be, wouldn’t risk Dante’s life, would she?

“How is Dante? I’ll be right there.”

“Dante has lost a lot of blood, I’ve drawn blood, he should be fine, no need to rush.”

Estrella Berrocal’s brow furrowed.

Your blood type and Dante’s blood type, the same?

How could it be a coincidence?

But Adán Rouco had said that Dante was not his son.

Estrella Berrocal hung up the phone and drove to the hospital, all the way, worried.

When she arrived at the hospital, Olivia Montes was crying vulnerably in the arms of Adán Rouco.

Estrella Berrocal bit her lip and stood there, like a stranger.

“Here it comes.”

Adán Rouco pushed Olivia Montes aside without moving, stood up and approached Estrella Berrocal.

Estrella Berrocal looked at his plain white face and, thinking of the blood she had drawn from Dante, raised her hand to help him, “Are you all right? I’ll get you something to eat to replenish your strength”.

From the looks of you, you must have rushed to the hospital without dinner after hearing about Dante’s accident, right?

Adán Rouco took his hand: “No, I’m not hungry”.

Olivia Montes said with a loud sob and nasal voice, “Adam, I’m going to go with Estrella to get something to eat, you haven’t had dinner and you’re giving Dante a blood transfusion, it’s not going to work.”

Estrella Berrocal wanted to say she could go alone, but there was something she wanted to ask Olivia Montes, so she said to Adán Rouco: “I’ll go with my sister-in-law, what do you want to eat?”

Adán Rouco did not insist: “Just something to eat”.

“Okay.”

When Estrella Berrocal and Olivia Montes left the hospital, Estrella Berrocal immediately asked: “Olivia Montes, did you cause Dante’s car accident?

“What are you babbling about, how am I going to play with Dante’s life! He’s my own son!”

Estrella Berrocal pursed her lips: “You scalded Dante on purpose before so that Adán Rouco would misunderstand me, you are too suspicious, Dante’s accident better not have been caused by you, otherwise, I really feel cold for Dante having a mother like you!”.

Olivia Montes’ haggard, sobbing face suddenly broke into a macabre smile, “Even if I did it on purpose, so what?”

Estrella Berrocal stiffened: “What do you mean?”.

“I caused Dante’s accident on purpose, I just didn’t want Adam to be with you, Estrella Berrocal, tell Adam if you can! Let’s see if Adam believes you or me!”.

“Olivia Montes! You are not human!”

Olivia Montes smiled, “You see, Dante has the same blood type as Adam, Adam transfuses Dante’s blood, me, Dante and Adam, we’re family! You’re just an outsider.”

“You gambled your own son’s life to get the pity and affection of Adán Rouco! Olivia Montes, you don’t deserve to be Dante’s mother!”

“It is not for you to lecture me on my worthiness. It is enough that Adam thinks I am worthy.”

Olivia Montes growled, seeing Estrella Berrocal so angry, did she really believe she had deliberately caused Dante’s accident?

He didn’t have time to confront Estrella Berrocal when Dante had the accident, but Estrella Berrocal had turned herself in!

At the store, Estrella Berrocal picked up a bacon sandwich and Olivia Montes picked up a tuna sandwich and sneered, “Adam likes tuna sandwiches.”

Estrella Berrocal squeezed his hand and finally returned the bacon sandwich to the shelf.

…

Back at the hospital, Olivia Montes handed Adán Rouco the tuna sandwich from the bag.

“Adam, I bought the tuna sandwich you like so much, I just had the clerk turn it into the store’s microwave, you can eat it while it’s hot.”

Estrella Berrocal, faced with Olivia Montes’ “hypocrisy”, gritted her teeth and said: “Adán Rouco, I have something to tell you”.

Olivia Montes pretended to be surprised: “Star, is there anything you want to say without me?

Adán Rouco looked deeply into Estrella Berrocal’s eyes and put down his sandwich: “What’s wrong?”

Estrella Berrocal took a deep breath and finally said what she had been thinking all along: “Dante’s accident was no accident”.

Adam Rouco frowned, his eyes darkening slightly, “What do you mean?”

“The last time Dante burned his hand in the kitchen, it was done on purpose by my sister-in-law, she just wanted you to misunderstand me, and this time … sister-in-law knew we were going on a movie date tonight, she wanted to sabotage us, so she deliberately caused Dante’s car accident. Olivia Montes just doesn’t deserve it…”

Before Estrella Berrocal could finish her sentence accusing Olivia Montes, Adán Rouco suddenly interrupted with a cold scolding, “Shut up!”

Estrella Berrocal’s eyes fluttered, “Adán Rouco, what I said is true!”

Olivia Montes said aggressively, “Estrella, I know you hate me, but you don’t have to denigrate me like that, do you? The last time you came to the Rouco family in the kitchen …, I feared you were up to no good and I did try to use that incident to get you out of the Rouco family, but then I knew you were up to no good and I didn’t do that kind of thing again so Adam would misunderstand you. I gave birth to Dante in October, how could I … Adam, this affair, Estrella really hurt me.”

“She just admitted it to me herself! Adán Rouco, you think…”

Adán Rouco’s voice grew even colder: “Estrella Berrocal, have you ever known a mother so cruel as to deliberately cause an accident to her child?”

He stared at her with a deep, cold, even angry look.

Estrella Berrocal stood there, looking at him for a long moment before she pressed her lips together in a smile, swallowed and said, “I see, I shouldn’t be here, bothering you, I’ll go now.”

The moment she turned around, the tears she had been holding back came to her eyes.

Adán Rouco had always, at all times, distrusted her.
