Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

The following afternoon, towards the end of the day, Estrella Berrocal’s phone rang with caller ID, Adán Rouco.

He was a little startled and did not answer immediately.

It had been a month since they had spoken and Adán Rouco would not have contacted her for no reason.

As soon as she picked up the phone, the man on the other end said, “I have an important appointment after work today, so pick up Paulita and take her to La Villa Rouco.”

Adán Rouco’s voice, as always, was cold and clear, without a trace of emotion, as if he were a superior giving orders to his subordinates.

Estrella Berrocal’s heart dropped for no apparent reason and she said coldly: “Yes, I’m going to pick up Paulita”.

Before I could hang up the phone, Adán Rouco had already done so.

Estrella Berrocal looked at the black screen and frowned.

He should be too busy with Lucretia Javier and the baby in his belly to worry about her now, right?

Estrella Berrocal didn’t bother to think about it anymore, gathered her things and went to pick up Paulita at work.

As soon as she saw Estrella Berrocal, she pounced on her, hugging her with both arms: “Estarita, I have missed you so much!

Estrella Berrocal looked down and kissed the little girl on the forehead, “Mom…. I’ve missed you a lot too”.

The word “mom” was about to come out.

It would be better not to tell her, so that Paulita could not leave her.

Estrella Berrocal smiled slightly and took the little girl’s hand. “Today your father is out for dinner, so he asked me to pick you up, so we won’t be back to La Villa Rouco for a while, okay?”.

“Yes, I want to play with Estrella for a while before we go home!”.

“Then we’ll have dinner out before we go home, okay?”

“Yes!”

Estrella Berrocal grinned and asked, “Kentucky Fried Chicken?”

The little girl pouted and said, “I want mashed potatoes and fries and chicken nuggets and coke!”.

The Villa Rouco is a famous, rich and powerful family, and naturally they don’t take a dim view of these fast foods, and naturally they don’t feed Paulita these so-called “fast foods”.

But Estrella Berrocal thought it would be nice to eat once in a while, especially when she took Paulita to Kentucky Fried Chicken, which she remembered from her childhood when Mukwang Kheng took her to Kentucky Fried Chicken.

Upon arriving at Kentucky Fried Chicken, Estrella Berrocal ordered many of Paulita’s favorites and while eating her fries, Estrella Berrocal pulled out her cell phone and took several videos and photos of Paulita, fearing she would not see her again for a long time.

Paulita asked with a frown, “Estrella, what are you doing?

“I’m recording you so I can see you whenever I miss you.”

At the mention of this, Paulita again separated her small shoulders and sighed, “Estrella, why can’t you stay with my daddy? My father has gone and found me a stepmother, what am I going to do if he mistreats me?”

The little boy had his chin resting on his two little hands, looking very distressed.

Estrella Berrocal was slightly astonished: “Your father is already looking for a stepmother for you?”.

Paulita nodded and complained, “Daddy can’t pick me up tonight at daycare because he’s going on a blind date with a hot chick!”.

Estrella Berrocal’s face darkened.

He had said on the phone that he had an important engagement after work, and that important engagement was a blind date with another woman?

He didn’t even care about his own daughter for a blind date?

Besides, doesn’t he already have a Lucrecia Javier? And Lucrecia Javier is already pregnant by him, and he still goes on a blind date with another woman?

Thank goodness she had already broken up with him!

Paulita bitterly sucked bitterly on her coke and said, “Estrella, I’m afraid my pretty aunt will treat me badly, shall we watch together?”

“Huh?” Estrella Berrocal was stunned, “But we don’t know the address of your blind date either.”

“I know, I heard Grandpa say it yesterday, at the Repulsa Bay Restaurant!”.

Estrella Berrocal hesitated: “But it’s not good for us to go like this, right?”.

After all, she had already broken up with Adán Rouco, and if she took Paulita there, if Adán Rouco found out, it would surely make Adán Rouco think that she was there to cause trouble on purpose.

“Let’s sneak in, hide and listen, Estrella, do you want to see how my stepmother mistreats me?”.

Estrella Berrocal could not stand to see Paulita’s miserable face, but it was good for her to see Paulita’s “future stepmother”, otherwise she would not be comfortable with Paulita living under the same roof with an evil stepmother.

Now that Estrella Berrocal has met many of them, she is even more afraid that Paulita will meet one too.

If Paulita met a stepmother like Doria Guillen, she would be in trouble.

When they arrive at the Repulse Bay Restaurant, Estrella Berrocal grabs Paulita and asks at the reception desk, “Which table is Mr. Adán Rouco at?”.

The receptionist looked at Estrella Berrocal and said formulaically, “Our guests are very distinguished and we cannot reveal their whereabouts.”

Paulita twisted her butt and said, “I’m coming to see my father, Adán Rouco is my father, and if you don’t tell me, I’ll have my father fire you later!”

Estrella Berrocal: “…”

This guy, he had more cockiness than she did!

As soon as the receptionist heard that, he immediately compensated with a smile and said: “Little Chic, tell me before you come to see your father, I’m sure I’ll take you there, Mr. Adam is at table 32, I’ll take you there…”.

Estrella Berrocal feared being discovered and said: “No, we’ll go ourselves, Paulita, let’s go”.

Estrella Berrocal took Paulita with her and was able to sit at table 31, table 32, which was behind them, and since the sofa was high, Estrella Berrocal and Paulita hid behind it and listened to their conversation with open ears.

At table 32, Adán Rouco and Rosa Galicia were seated across from each other.

Rosa Galicia meets Adán Rouco and shyly tells him: “I have always admired Mr. Adán, and seeing him today, he is really handsome”.

The woman’s voice gave Estrella Berrocal goose bumps.

What’s the point of being so whiny when speaking?

After a brief chat, Adán Rouco said, “Miss Rosa, I have a three-year-old daughter, would Miss Rosa be willing to take care of her?”

Paulita, who was eavesdropping, got very excited and said, “Estrella, daddy wants you to be my stepmother …. Well…”

Estrella Berrocal covered the little girl’s mouth and lowered her voice: “Shh, lower your voice”.

Damn Adán Rouco, it’s only the first time we see each other and after only a few words with her, he makes her Paulita’s stepmother?

Estrella Berrocal wanted to see what this “Miss Rosa” looked like, how beautiful she was, how she could take Adán Rouco on their first meeting!

When she had “seduced” Adán Rouco at the party, Adán Rouco had not taken the bait and humiliated her!

Estrella Berrocal raised her head, took a cautious glance and met Adán Rouco’s gaze!
