Chapter 36: This Man Came as God
Irene lost all patience seeing that Estrella stood there without moving and did not want to kneel. She just wanted to embarrass him and walked towards Estrella, she said, -If you really don’t want to kneel, now you beg me. Maybe I will leave you alone when I am happy.
Estrella laughed coldly and spoke clearly with a clenched fist, “Well, Irene, I’m still not doing very well right now but I’m still the only daughter of the Berrocal family. And you? If my father didn’t marry your mother, you and your mother are still hiding from debts. Your biological father is nothing but an alcoholic. My father was kind enough to help your father repay the debt. But what result did my father get? You and your mother cheated him and stole all my father’s money. You also left him in a desperate situation and took the Berrocal family’s villa from him. Is there anyone who knows all these truths?
She told it out loud for all the guests present to hear.
Irene hid her origin from others. It was common knowledge that her biological father was a scientist who studied Antarctica and her mother Doria Guillen was a famous pianist. And Irene was a lady who was born into a good family. When she was a little girl, her father was so busy with his studies that he had no time to spend with her mother and her, so they divorced. At a piano concert, her mother met Stefano Berrocal and they fell in love.
At that point, the people around began to question.
-It turns out that Irene’s father is an alcoholic. She says that her father is a scientist and is often abroad.
-I told you. We never see his father!
-His father is an alcoholic. I don’t think his mother is a pianist. Maybe she’s a prostitute!
Many ironic hushed discussions ensued.
Irene became furious with her face well made up and shouted, “Star, you are talking nonsense! Don’t you accept that you have lost the bet and lie to everyone?
-Whether I am telling the lie or you are telling the lie, you know very well.
Irene saw the disdainful looks cast by the people around her. She grabbed Estrella’s arm and pulled her into the pool.
Estrella hadn’t thought Irene could do that and fell into the pool. The cold water surrounded her and hurt her bones. She was wet and her makeup was also smeared. She felt very embarrassed.
At the edge of the pool Irene was quite angry and said, -Somebody, bring her over here! Star, you’ve lost the bet. I don’t care if you want to kneel or not. You have to kneel 3 times.
Two very strong and muscular bodyguards came. They pushed very hard on Estrella who was in the pool.
Estrella struggled hard and felt the pain in her arm as if it were broken.
-Let go of me! Let go of me!
Ivan who was next to me frowned and could not stand it any longer. When he wanted to talk Irene out of it, a good male sound came from the crowd.
-Star.
Estrella was very surprised. It was Adam’s voice.
He looked back and saw her perfect body with tear-filled eyes. All people were attracted by her charms.
The man came as a god. He gave everyone a surprise.
In real was Adam.
It was amazing that Adam came to this small party and now he was walking to the pool where Estrella was.
Did the manager Adán of the Rouco Group really know Estrella?
The two bodyguards who were holding Estrella’s arms left her in fear. And Estrella stood in the pool looking at the man with dull eyes.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
-Adam…
The man looked fondly at the open-mouthed woman in surprise and held out his hand. While the other people glanced at him with curiosity and fear.
They all heard Adam speak to him in a loving tone, “I’m sorry. I’m late.
Estrella was surprised.
The man saw the immobilized girl and smiled, “Did you enjoy the water? If you don’t come out, I’ll come down and pick you up.
At that moment, Adam’s sweet words almost brought tears to her eyes. Thanks to the water above his face, no one could see if it was water or tears. Her small, cold hand was grasping for Adam’s big, warm hand. The moment she touched Adam’s hand, her heart became soft as cotton.
Adam helped her out of the water and took off his black suit jacket to wrap around Estrella. The jacket was wide and complimented her pretty, wet body.
The man hugged the girl’s shoulder and said with a smile, “They say that my wife has had a bet with Mrs. Irene. If someone loses the bet, he has to kneel 3 times to another person. Is this bet still good?
Your wife?
It was unbelievable that he recognized that she was his wife in front of so many people. Estrella looked at the man’s handsome face.
Irene was completely scared and couldn’t answer anything. Would she really need to kneel down 3 times to Estrella in front of everyone?
I couldn’t do it.
Ivan approached and said, “Mr. Adam, Irene just wanted to make a joke with Estrella. They often make jokes like that the two sisters. Don’t treat it so seriously.
-So pushing my wife into the pool was also a joke,” Adam asked.
Ivan was a little scared. Even Adam still had a smile on his face but his cold stare made him shiver.
The man lowered his head and asked Estrella in a soft voice, “Honey, do you think it was a joke?
She did not wait for Estrella’s response. Suddenly Adam stepped behind her, grabbed her hand and made a rather strong blow to Irene’s face.
The blow made Irene dizzy.
All the people were frightened, including Estrella.
The man leaned close to her ear and whispered, -Mistress Star, revenge is like that. Do you learn it?
Estrella nodded her head.
That party now belonged to Adam.
Irene felt super humiliated and would keep the pain from her face. She shouted with a clenched fist, -Don’t go too far!
Adam ignored the threat and said, “I just want to make a joke with Mrs. Irene.
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. How strong!
Ivan threw it to Irene and said, “Mr. Adam, today is our fault. Now we are leaving. Enjoy yourselves with his wife.
When Ivan left with Irene, Adam stopped them and said, “Wait, may I give you permission to leave?
-What else do you want?” Ivan asked.
The blow was already embarrassing. Wasn’t it enough?
