EPISODE 75

 

Elsewhere, Martin and Hector are at Martin's house. Hector tells Martin what he just heard about the children. Martin is shocked.

Later that night, at Aurelio's home. Aurelio has just arrived. He senses that Aranza knows something because she looks restless and jumpy. He asks her what gossip, Adrianna, and Gina fed her with. Aranza asks him why he is asking. Aurelio says that she is bursting with nosiness. She rolls her eyes at him and then says that what just happened is very serious. He asks her how serious it is. She says it is serious enough for Gina and Hector to request an emergency family meeting. Aurelio asks her to tell him what is going on.

At Juan Patricio and Claudia's house, Claudia is trying to convince Antonio to leave Gina but he is adamant he won't do that. Claudia asks him why he is still with her, when her son, isn't his. Antonio says he loves her, and that is enough. Claudia sighs in frustration. She then asks him to think of the scandal that would happen, if the story, came out, and how it might affect the children. Antonio tells her to stop being so melodramatic. He says that, if they are all mature, especially, her, Horacio, and Isabella, there is no reason why any of the children will suffer. Claudia looks at Antonio in frustration.

Meanwhile, Aurelio is shocked. He asks Aranza what she thinks, will happen. She says she isn't sure, but she is afraid, Antonio and Gina and Hector and Adrianna might have to break up. She then adds that she doesn't want them to break up, because they love each other, and they are her favorite people on earth. He hugs her and says that he also feels sorry for the children to be conceived under all the mess. Aranza says she does too.

At Martin's house,

Martin and Hector are discussing what will happen next. Hector says that Gina talked to Luisa and they are having a meeting with everyone else the next day in the afternoon to tell them. He adds that he wants to stay by Adrianna's side, but he knows, Marianna and Alejandro won't make anything easy.

Elsewhere, at Antonio's house, Emma and Adrianna are still there. Gina says she'll do a DNA test, but it's all mostly a matter of formality. Adrianna agrees it's a good idea.

Later on, sometime after Antonio has left, Juan Patricio arrives. Claudia tells him that something has happened and they need to talk. He says to himself that she's probably being dramatic, and had an argument with Antonio as usual, but he will humor her anyway.

Meanwhile, Helena has just told Carlos what Alejandro told her. Like everyone else, he is shocked. He says that the company will be negatively affected if they are involved in such a scandal. Helena says that the issue has to be shushed up.

Back at Juan Patricio and Claudia's house, Claudia has already told him the truth. He is of course shocked. She adds that she dreads the scandal that would occur if this came out. He agrees that this has to be dealt with. He adds that one way or the other, Antonio and Gina have to be made to see sense.

On Saturday,

Hector and Anna Patricia go to visit John. He looks at Hector and asks him if he is okay. Hector says that he is fine, but John (Gabriel) looks at him like he doesn't believe a word he is saying. His father made a face that Aranza would make when she too didn't believe what she was being told. Despite the situation, Hector smiled. John asks him what was so funny.

He tells him that, when he reacted that way, he looked so much like someone who is like a (pause), little sister to him. John says that he would love to meet her one day. He adds that being around the same company, same environment, same routine for years, on end, gets boring and mind rotting. He adds that new company is always welcome.

Meanwhile, Antonio hears a knock on the door and goes to open it. He is shocked to see both his grandparents. He says to himself that things won't end well. Claudia and Juan Patricio enter. Gina is in the room with, the baby.

Meanwhile at Hector's house, Adrianna's phone rings. It is an unknown number. She picks, it up. It is Alejandro. She asks him what he wants. He says he wanted to check up on her and their daughter. Adrianna says that all communication between them will be, through official channels, and not through any unknown or blocked numbers. Alejandro ignores her and says that what he wants most is for, them to be a family with their daughter. Adrianna sighs and hangs up. Alejandro says that he won't rest until he marries her. He adds that she is his and his alone.

Back at Antonio's house, Gina has joined Antonio and his grandparents, in the sitting room. Juan Patricio gets down to business and says that the visit isn't a social one. He tells Antonio and Gina that they all know the reason for the visit. Juan Patricio says that they need to talk about the children.

Meanwhile, Adrianna hears a knock on the door and goes to open it. Fearing it might be Alejandro, she asks who it is. It is her aunt, Helena. Adrianna sighs and breathes deeply then goes to open. Helena looks around with distaste, then moves to go and sit down. Adrianna rolls her eyes and then goes to join her aunt.

Back at Antonio's house, Juan Patricio is still trying to convince Gina and Antonio to break up. Antonio holds Gina's hands and says that he loves her and he will not leave her. Claudia, buts in and asks Gina, if she feels any shame in denying an innocent child the right to live with his father. Gina looks Claudia, straight in the eye, and says that she and the child are innocent victims of whatever mess, is going on at the moment. She adds that she loves, Antonio, and doesn't want to give him up.

She adds that Isabella's son is always welcome and she won't mistreat him, because he is an innocent victim of his mother's scheming. Claudia is surprised, that Gina looked at her in the eye, and at her words. Antonio is proud of her for standing up to his grandmother. He says to himself that his grandmother can be a bully, and scares people. He adds still to himself, that sometimes even he is scared of her.

Back at Hector's house, Adrianna has folded her hands. She asks her aunt why she came. Helena looks at her niece, and she says to herself that Adrianna is so much like her father. Helena says that she came to talk about the baby. Adrianna, says that she is sure, Alejandro is the one who told her what happened. Helena says that, what happened, has already happened and they all need to move on.

Adrianna says that she is moving on with Hector and her daughter. Helena irritatedly looks at Adrianna and says that's not what she means. She adds that she (Adrianna) should move on with Alejandro, and let Marianna and Hector raise their daughter. Helena adds that whatever fantasy she was living with Hector, was nice while it lasted, but now it was over.

Back at Antonio's house, despite Claudia and Juan Patricio's best efforts, Antonio and Gina continued to stick with each other.

Meanwhile, at Isabella's house,

Horacio, Marianna, Isabella, and Alejandro are, touching base. Isabella says that now is the time to roll out the second phase of their plan, the threats. She says that it's now up to them, (Alejandro and Horacio) because she and Marianna have done their part.

Meanwhile, at Antonio's house, the Ortiz family, are meeting. Aranza and Emma are also there. Clara says that tough times are coming ahead, so they need to be strong.

Two days later on Monday,

Gina is happy, because starting that day, she can finally resume visiting her father. Her happiness is however clouded by the issues surrounding her son.

Meanwhile, at Marianna's house, she is there with the baby and the girl who comes in during the day. The baby is crying. Marianna and the girl do everything they can to help her, and she stops crying but they notice that her temperature is very high. Marianna says that they will call Hector later, but first, they have to take the child to the hospital.

Isabella meanwhile is, out shopping. Staying in the house for the past month, nearly killed her with boredom. She says that finally, she is away from Gina's brat.

Back in the neighborhood, Anna Patricia is returning home from running errands. She has a shopping bag in her hand and opens the door. She enters and is about to close the door when she sees Carlos. She knows trying to close the door on him is futile because he is physically much stronger than her. Carlos seizes her confusion and enters. He pushes the door shut. Anna Patricia, places her shopping bag, by the side of the door.

Meanwhile, Marianna and the house help have arrived at the hospital and the child is undergoing tests. She also calls Hector. He says that he will get off work as soon as he can.

Back at Ramon and Clara's house,

Anna Patricia tells Carlos that she isn't interested in him and that she will never get tired of reminding him how much he disgusts her. Carlos mocks her and says he can see how desperate she is to be pining after her mad man. Anna Patricia says that what she does is her business and that she owes him no explanations. Carlos surprises her and grabs a fistful of her hair. He then makes her face him and says that he always gets what he wants one way or the other. He tries to kiss her, but she pushes him hard until he falls.

Anna Patricia is pissed off and tells him that, he should never repeat that again. Carlos wakes up again and says that she will pay for that. He adds that, if he even gets a whiff of her having a relationship with her mad man, he will kill him (John). Just then her phone rings. She glares at Carlos and goes and picks it up. It is Hector and he asks her if it was a bad time. She says it wasn't, and that she was just doing some chores. Anna Patricia senses some distress in his voice and says that he is the one who doesn't sound okay.

He tells her that his daughter is sick and that Marianna took her to the hospital. He says that he knows that Marianna isn't a very nice person and that they don't get along with her, but he really would like her to go and check on the baby. Anna Patricia says that it won't be a problem and that she will leave immediately.

Shortly after,

Hector then calls Adrianna and tells her about the baby. He also tells her that his aunt went to check on the baby on his behalf. Adrianna is genuinely worried about the baby and asks him to keep her posted.
