Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

Chapter 10: You are missing Mrs. Rouco



Maybach left quickly, causing a lot of dust in the air, Adam stared at the shrinking figure in the rearview mirror with cold eyes.

The little girl sitting next to him crawled mischievously into his lap, and her soft, milk-colored hands grabbed him and asked, -Daddy, why can’t we take Estrella home for dinner?

Adam lowered his eyes, raised his big hand, touched his daughter’s little head and said with great patience, -Do you like Paula so much Estrella?

-Yes!” the little girl blinked her big bright eyes and nodded her head at Adam.

-Because Estrella has given me Paula’s candy, so I like her?

However, many daughters from other families, who had had an appointment with him before, brought many of their favorite snacks to Paula, and he did not see that this little girl liked them very much, but cried and cried not to be with them.

What strange thing had Estrella done to this little girl?

Paula shook her head, two small hands were compared to a small circle, she placed them on her two big eyes, she looked at Adam, laughing, -Because Estrella’s eyes are as big as Paula’s!-.

Adam was surprised, could even the little girl see how similar the woman was to her?

Adam hugged the little girl sitting on his lap, her thin lips tightened and her dark eyes deepened.

Paula had had an exhausting day, and after a while, she fell asleep in Adam’s arms. Adam lowered his voice and asked Santino who was driving, “When will the DNA result come out?

-She will leave the afternoon after tomorrow at the latest. Chief, if Miss Estrella really is Paulita’s biological mother…

Adam’s expression turned somber, -Investigate well the detailed reasons for Estrella’s surrogacy three years ago.

-Yes.

If that Star approached him and Paula for an impure purpose, even if she was Paula’s biological mother, he did not mind letting this fact and her identity remain a secret forever.

After Estrella got out of kindergarten work, she drove through Región de Azul. As she passed by the Berrocal family’s chalet, she saw a large truck parked in front of their house, like a moving house.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

-Here! Be careful! I bought this vase for over a million! Will you be able to pay for it if you break it?

A gruff and familiar middle-aged female voice sounded, and Estrella raised her eyes and saw that Doria was frowning and pointing impatiently at the moving company personnel.

A boy in the company behind her held up a portrait, Doria’s eyes shrunk and she said in disgust, -Throw this portrait away, it’s heavy and takes up space, and it’s unfortunate!

The boy was about to throw the portrait away, Estrella narrowed her eyes, it was her father’s portrait!

-Wait!

Doria looked at her, and when her eyes rested on Estrella’s long parted face, her eyes trembled fiercely.

-Estre, Estrella…? Didn’t you leave town N?

Estrella pursed her lips and smiled, laughing coldly and mockingly, -Mrs. Doria, long time no see-.

-What are you doing back in town, N?

Estrella snatched the portrait from the mover and held it tightly in her arms, “This is my home, why can’t I come back?

-Heh!” scoffed Doria, “I can tell you the truth that this villa will be demolished soon, and you can’t stop it! Besides, you have no right to stop it! After all, this villa is in my name!

Star gripped the portrait tightly, her slender fingers whitened vigorously, her eyes resolutely bold, -I will never let this villa be demolished!

Doria said sternly, her arms were crossed in front of her chest, -Do you know how much this villa is worth when demolished? Forty million! Star, I see you want to have this villa, it’s just a fantasy! But, maybe it’s possible if you sell your body! –

The fire in her heart was fully lit. Estrella remembered the ten million they had taken three years ago. She clenched her fist and raised her hand to slap Doria’s face. Just as her palm was about to fall, her wrist was intercepted by a force.

-Aunt, are you all right?

Ivan Martinez, who hurried out of the villa, asked his future mother-in-law with concern, and Estrella gave Ivan a cold look, holding up the portrait and left the villa.

Before leaving the Blue Region, Ivan chased after her, grabbed her wrist and asked, “Why did you come back?

She scoffed, -Why can’t I go back! Ivan, don’t upset me!

She pulled her wrist out of his palm forcefully, her scarlet eyes looked like a small irritated beast, and she glared at him angrily!

-Do you dislike me? Star! Where did you get 10 million three years ago?

-What qualifications do you have to ask me that! Heh, you know that Doria and Irene took the ten million? Are you involved in that?

Ivan was silent for two seconds with a guilty conscience, and then he grabbed his wrist again, -How could you make so much money in less than a year? Estrella, you dedicated yourself to being a prostitute!

She laughed, with a chilling smile, “I was really blind to be your girlfriend before! You disgust me!

She broke away from his hand, held the portrait, turned and walked away without looking back.

But by the time he turned around, his eyes were red….

The grievances and hatred in his heart rolled like a stormy sea.

She would have to take her revenge and she would have to make Doria, her daughter and Ivan pay their due price!

He took a deep breath and dialed Perla’s phone number. He remembered that in Perla’s address book there were many cell phone numbers of high-class people.

-Pearl, do you have Adam’s cell phone number?

Villa of the Rouco family, in the study room.

Adam stood in front of the window and answered a call.

-Boss, Estrella had a surrogacy three years ago because her father Stefano went bankrupt and was in debt. To help her father pay off the debt, Estrella agreed to the surrogacy, but the ten million at the time seemed to have been carried by her stepmother and stepsister. Her father committed suicide by jumping off the building because the creditor forced her into debt. Even the Berrocal family villa became the property of her stepmother. Three years ago, after giving birth to her daughter, she went to study in Paris. It seems that Estrella should have no idea that Paulita is her biological daughter.

As soon as Santino finished talking, another call came in on Adam’s cell phone.

He hung up on Santino’s call and took the call from this unknown number, a familiar young female voice came from the phone, with a slight hoarseness, as if she had just cried.

-Hey, Mr. Adam, it’s Star. You said you’re interested in my body. Does it still count?

Adam arched his eyebrows, his black eyes slid slyly, “I was only joking, Miss Berrocal, did you take it seriously?

Estrella swallowed saliva and said with difficulty, “Mr. Adam, as long as you can stay in the village of Berrocal, I am willing to do anything.

Adam was silent for a long time, which made her feel as if she was sinking to the icy seabed and was about to suffocate and drown. Only then did she hear an indifferent male voice from her cell phone….

-I am not interested in keeping a mistress.

Estrella plucked up her courage, closed her eyes and said in a deep voice, “I am not going to be his mistress. Mr. Adam, I know you lack Mrs. Rouco, and I lack a strong and powerful backing.
