Snippets 72

After their first love making, (in the forest) C.E an L.F cut another deeper covenant of eternal love. He promised to marry her immediately as his wife within a week, and never to betray their love. They never knew that villains of fate have conspired to thwart their dreams by the time they would get to the city. They never saw each other again for the over two years, torn apart, by traitors of destiny. Back in the city the next day, Joaquina wanted to know where L.F slept and she just covered up the truth from her. Later when jealous psychiatrist, Alfredo came, L.F accused both him and Joaquina of being responsible for not warning her ahead that Pedro was mad with her for reconciling with C.E.

Rigo was so angry about the accusation of theft against L.F by Consuelo, and she protested it. She threaten to report Consuelo to Don and expose her evil motive for wanting to incriminate L.F. Consuela deliberately did not want Don to recover from the amnesia, so she did not take him to the hospital. Knowing very well that with his amnesia, he would be in no condition to defend L.F.

When Rigo told Don about the plot and actions of Consuelo to incriminate L.F of stealing Vanessa's money, Don told her he had never heard of anybody called Luicito or Vanessa. Amnesia and Alzheimer disease has stolen his precious memory away at the most crucial moment of his life.

Andreina called Jenny aside and warned her that L.A was planning to kill Marissa as he told her and warned Jenny not to be part of the game. Jenny had to confront L.A with Andreina's allegation, but he denied it. Marissa was taken to the hospital in an ambulance.

Carlos came to the hospital and because Marissa's condition was in danger, he quickly arranged to take her abroad, to Baltimore, Maryland, USA, for specialist treatment. L.A was sad and he opposed the transfer. He wished Marissa were dead from the overdose of Aspirin, he gave her so that, as her legal husband, he would take charge of her wealth and the administration of the bank. When L.A lost the argument, he now insisted that he too must go on the trip with his wife. He rushed to the office to obtain permission from Heriberto, to travel with his wife for her treatment abroad.

Alfredo granted permission to Pedro to celebrate his birthday at home. Anzola was hoping the celebration would be the opportunity for him to retaliate and stage an entry into L.F's love life during the feast, knowing that Pedro would not tolerate Carlos, (his rival), to appear at the ceremony. While the party was going on to mark the birthday of Pedro, L.F remembered to Phone the Alcantara's house to tell them she would not come to work because it was her father's birthday. Consuelo picked the phone and assured her that there was no problem.

As soon as L.F dropped the phone, Consuela called Detective Medina, that the suspected culprit, in the case of stolen money of Vanessa, L.F has come back to town, that he should go and arrest her at home now. She described the address to Medina. In the height of the birthday party, Medina with other police officers knocked the door and entered, arresting L.F for theft of vanessa's money in Alcantara's house, in the midst of the guest.

Meanwhile, at the airport, Carlos was worried that he never had time to inform L.F of the emergency of travelling to the U.S to take his mom there for treatment. Ordonez assured him that Lupe would pass the information to L.F and he should not worry anymorew. Carlos now instructed Ordonez to get ready every preparation necessary for a quiet wedding between him and L.F, as soon as he returned to Mexico from the USA, He also told him to give L.F any amount of money, she may need to buy things in readiness for the wedding.


Armando repoerted for work as a legal intern and personal assistant to L.A only to be told that his boss has travelled to the USA.

Episode 63: No To Manipulation!

Jennifer de la Vega is loosing the battle on every front. Having failed to intimidate L.F at home, she headed straight for Carlos office with her bag of tricks. Carlos was surprised with her early morning visit, which he supposed could not be a social visit because it was too early for that. She faltered, and said she just came to alert him of an emergency about L.F, whom she claimed was cheating on him with Alfredo.

Carlos challenged her where she got her information from. She said she saw 'the stupid psychiatrist' in her house early this morning and her entry seem to have disrupted an 'action'. Carlos was furious and questioned her on what she was doing in L.F's house, when has she become a good friend of L.F to warrant an early morning visit. She lied that she went to her house to advise L.F not to toy with Carlos love and to treasure it and not cheat on him.

Carlos laughed and "thanked" her for her Samaritan charity. He now faced her with his characteristic snarl reserved only for L.A and Alfredo, saying: "... Leave us alone! neither of us are going to let you, this time, or anyone else, to manipulate us!" Jenny was dazed that her old tricks have lost its potency, she was ashamed and humiliated out of Carlos office.

Fire-For-Fire
She went straight to Marissa's office, hysterical and desperately begging her to intervene and instruct Carlos not to marry a gardener's daughter, and that he should marry her(Jenny) if he wants her(Marissa's) parental blessings. Marissa was telling her how difficult that assignment would be because Carlos is an adult. In the midst of their pity-party, wild Andreina burst in on them confronting Marissa and warning her to desist from luring L.A back to her house and life because now she was his woman.

Marissa returned her fire, saying that she is still his legally Married wife and therefore had a right to still talk to him without her permission. Moreover, she said her office was not a platform for angry outburst of emotional and personal discussion. She threatened her to leave her office now or security men would throw her out! Andreina walked out like a person that was just drenched in a bucket of very cold water.

Pedro repented of hitting L.F on the face, he begged for her forgiveness and told her that he had become a monster and she should help him by forgiving him. Alfredo came in to manage his patient, he embraced L.F to calm her down from weeping and began to touch and carry her face, petting her as if she was his baby. I believe if this guy should turn 80% of the care he has for L.F and concern he has about Carlos unto Pedro, he would have been healed of his insanity. He explained that Pedro may suffering from Schizophrenia, a condition that makes a person to have misconstrued perception of the world around him.

When L.F reported at the Alcantaras for her daily duties, she pleaded for pardon for coming late due to her father's conditions. Don and Rigo understood her situation and sympathized with her. She bursted into tears again because of the overwhelming emotional stress she was going through. Don held like like a daughter and she wept her heart out on his shoulder. Rigo was nodding in knowledge of the truth. Don demanded that he wanted to meet her father to convince him not to interfere in her relationship with Carlos.

Consuela entered and watched to her consternation how Don and Rigo were chatting with L.F as if she were a member of the family and not a house maid. She interrupted their discussion telling the old man that she had issues from the company she wanted to discuss with him. He replied harshly, scolding her for interrupting his more important discussion with Luicita. Rigo quickly took L.F out to the garden, they met Ordonez at the door who came to meet Consuelo and Don. Ordonez was shocked to see L.F there, but Rigo explained to him that L.F works in the house.

It was revealed during discussion that Don did not know about the proposed loan by Consuelo. She had to explain to both Ordonez and Don the purpose. Ordonez was lost in thought, obviously concluding that Don and the nhousehold did not know about L.F being a heiress and grandaughter of Don. Carlos came to the garden ato embrace L.F after he had hot disputations with Alfredo over L.F. Rigo excused them at the garden.
