Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

Estrella Berrocal stormed out of the subway parking garage onto the sixty-sixth floor, only to be stopped by Santino Yepes at the door of his office.

Santino Yepes smiled good-naturedly and said, “Miss Estrella, the boss is on videoconference and it is not convenient for him to come in now.”

Estrella Berrocal’s temper flared completely: “Santino Yepes, why did you bring someone to wreck my car?”.

He wanted to ask why Adán Rouco had sent him to wreck his car, he knew very well that Santino Yepes would bring someone to wreck his car, it had to be at Adán Rouco’s behest!

Santino Yepes rubbed his nose in embarrassment, “Miss Estrella, why don’t you … ask the boss about this later? I, I’m not quite sure … ”

Adán Rouco’s performance today not only puzzled Estrella Berrocal, but surprised her, although Adán Rouco is a tronista in the business world, if anyone dares to mess with him, but Miss Estrella is such a delicate little woman, how can she mess with the boss?

Besides, Adán Rouco had never been one to take women seriously as long as they did not offend him, but this Señorita Estrella, who had been in the boss’s crosshairs today, was so miserable!

Estrella Berrocal gritted her teeth and stared dryly at the closed door, her anger rising to the top of her head!

He was hoping to contact Jonathan Tasis tonight to return the car, but in the blink of an eye, Adam Rouco had wrecked it for him!

How was I going to pay Jonathan Tasis back?

Where was I going to get $800, 000? Besides, I had just bought the car and didn’t have insurance yet.

Estrella Berrocal was walking down the hallway in front of the office and Santino Yepes became dizzy: “Miss Estrella, I think the boss is going to be on videoconference for a while, why don’t you come back?”.

“I’m going to wait here.”

How could I feel like working now?

Eight hundred thousand dollars gone in one fell swoop!

Luckily, after about ten minutes, Adán Rouco had already let them in when Santino Yepes knocked on the door.

Estrella Berrocal came striding into the office: “Adán Rouco, why did you send someone to wreck my car!”.

The man sitting in the black executive chair, his pretty fingers tapping the desk top, was calm and collected, not at all like someone who had just done something wrong.

A thick and brazen skin!

“What eye did you see that I sent someone to wreck your car?”

“To you!”

Estrella Berrocal’s face turned red with anger, “Santino Yepes has agreed, you’re not going to renege! I don’t care, you’re going to pay for the car! I don’t care, you’re going to pay for the car, either in cash or by buying a new one. …”

She had not finished the sentence when Adán Rouco interrupted her, his dark eyes downcast and his voice an octave colder: “Why, do you want the car?”.

Damn it! Eight hundred thousand dollars! Couldn’t I want it?

“I know you have money, but who are you to wreck my car!”

Last night he humiliated her, today he wrecked her car, and damn it, on the mountain he confessed to her that he liked her….

Fuck him for liking it!

“The car, I sent someone to wreck it because I didn’t like that car.”

Least of all, she was driving that car.

A car given to her by another man, and she so precious about it?

Estrella Berrocal wanted to blurt out: “It’s none of my business if you don’t like it!

But because she has quality, she held her tongue and scolded him through gritted teeth, “You’re a pervert!”.

“Beat it.”

“If I’m not compensated, I’ll stay here today!”

Estrella Berrocal thought the word “out” was directed at her, but Santino Yepes nodded and said, “Yes boss, you and Miss Estrella take your time.”

Estrella Berrocal: “…”

She was furious and angry: “Adán Rouco, what do you want?

Adán Rouco grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms so violently that Estrella Berrocal was caught by surprise and fell directly onto his chest, sitting on his lap.

She struggled several times with a red face, but he held her firmly, his breath in her ear. “Since you think I’m a pervert, I’m not going to do anything. I don’t do anything pervert. Pervert, how can I live up to that word?”

“…”

Damn it! Bastard!

The man’s hot breath was spraying her cheeks and neck, her blood was getting hotter and hotter, but the fire in her heart had nowhere to go, and the aggression in her chest was snowballing, and at this moment, he was still treating her like this …

A surge of heartburn erupted from his throat, “Who are you to treat me like this?”

She clenched both fists and punched him hard in the shoulders and chest, choking back a sob with bloodshot eyes, “Adán Rouco! I’ve put up with your repeated bravado, but why did you wreck my car? I’m not as rich as you! Hundreds of thousands of dollars within your reach! That’s somebody else’s car! How can I give it back to somebody else now? I don’t care! You have to give it back to me!”

She screamed in disarray, scratching his neck like a furtive kitten, and Adán Rouco did not let go of her hand, which soon left several red marks on his neck.

Estrella Berrocal was completely immobilized, eyes wide and red, staring at him, tears rolling down her face silently and aggressively.

The tip of Adán Rouco’s heart suffered an inexplicable pinch.

“I will buy you any car you want and I will not allow you to receive any more gifts from other men.”

Estrella Berrocal was startled, what did he mean?

Did you already know that the car was given to you by Jonathan Tasis?

“What, what do you mean?”

The man’s dark eyes bore into hers and his thin lips spat the words, “Literally.”

Estrella Berrocal cried out, confused, her mind rattling, her lips parting, not knowing what to say.

Adán Rouco raised his hand and wiped the tears from his face: “Have you cried enough?

The sound of his voice, unusually soft and wretched, but the gesture was incredibly gentle.

Estrella Berrocal blinked and a tear fell, she sniffled loudly and uttered a few faint words: “You will have to pay me eight hundred thousand …”.

“Hmm.”C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

The man replied in a subdued voice, “I’ll wire the eight hundred thousand directly to Jonathan Tasis’ account.”

“You, how do you know Jonathan Tasis gave me that car?”

The man said nothing, but said in a cold voice, “You are not allowed to interact with Jonathan Tasis in the future, and you are not allowed to accept anything he gives you.”

“…”

Estrella Berrocal’s brain took several quick turns before-.

He… was jealous?

Jealous of Jonathan Tasis?

But then again, reason told him that he didn’t even like her, so how could he be jealous of that?

Could it be that Jonathan Tasis held a grudge?

He swallowed hard and asked dumbly, “Why can’t I, why can’t I date Jonathan Tasis?”

“Because you are my wife.”

Estrella Berrocal’s ears pricked up and she muttered, “Then I’m free to have friends too.”

The man looked slightly displeased and frowned slightly, “I don’t care who you befriend, Jonathan Tasis, no.”

She lowered her face, her mind no longer on the subject, and after holding her tongue for a long moment, she asked sullenly, “Adam Rouco, are you jealous?”

The man did not seem to expect a rhetorical question, and his eyes flickered slightly.

Was he jealous?

When he looked up, the man looked away slightly, and Estrella Berrocal looked at him in astonishment.

After a long moment, Adán Rouco looked back at him sidelong: “If you keep looking at me like that, I can’t guarantee that you won’t do anything out of the ordinary”.
