EPISODE 80

 

Back at the Montes De Alba mansion, Adrianna is taking a walk in the garden, when she sees Alejandro. She ignores him, but he clearly wants, to talk to her. Alejandro says that he is happy to see that she has moved on from Hector, because it gives him hope, that there is a chance for them. Adrianna glares at him.

She says that she won't even bother explaining, to him anything, given everything that has happened. Adrianna tries to walk away from him, but he holds her hand. He tells her that they should get married for the child's sake. Adrianna tells him that neither she nor the child need him. She then, wiggles free and goes off. Alejandro smiles after her, then tells himself that she will be his, the way it was always meant to be.

Elsewhere, Gina is at her and Hector's house,

She remembers, the first time, she and Antonio kissed. She then has a flashback of them as children. She remembers the smile on his face when he dyed her hair blue, and when she pinched him for it after. She says to herself that she wishes that she could tell him the truth and end it all but she cannot risk her father's health and safety. She adds that Helena and Carlos might try something, and she can't let that happen.

Later in the day, at Aranza and Aurelio's house,

She asks, him if he isn't curious where she was. Aurelio shrugs and says that she is nosy, so she probably went to interrogate Adrianna, over why she broke up with Hector. Aranza folds her hands and says that she isn't nosy, but she is just concerned. Aranza then comes and joins, Aurelio on the couch. She then asks Aurelio, why he didn't go to school, that day. He says he did, then he felt a bit unwell and returned.

Aranza feels his face, and he tells her he had a burnout and needed some rest. He then asks her what Adrianna told her. Aranza says she just repeated the story about Alejandro wanting to take their daughter away. Aurelio says maybe that is what happened. Aranza says she didn't believe Adrianna, because she knows her too well. She adds that she has a feeling, Adrianna and Gina are hiding things. Aurelio lets her place her head on him and puts one arm around her.

Later at night after visiting John, Gina, is at home with Emma and the baby. Emma asks Gina for how long she intends to stay away, from Antonio. Gina says that she isn't sure, and adds that, she feels overwhelmed. Emma says that what Horacio did to her was cruel and she understands her fears over his threat, to take away their son, but Antonio loves her and they can work their way around it. Gina says she knows that and she wants nothing more than to be with Antonio but things are much more complicated than that.

Emma says that they are complicated because she is stubborn. Gina says that that's not it. Emma rolls her eyes and says that she knows that Antonio's grandparents don't like her, and won't help her against Horacio, but she and Antonio can still get through it together as will Adrianna and Hector. She tells Gina that she should be more proactive in clipping Horacio and Isabella. She then asks Gina if there is a way she can deal with Horacio. Gina says that there isn't anything she can do because her hands are tied.

Emma looks at Gina like she doesn't believe her. Gina sips a glass of water then assures Emma that she is fine. Emma folds her hands, then tells Gina that she doesn't believe a word she says. Gina wants to tell Emma the truth but hesitates. She then remembers that Hector has less of a burden on that front because Martin is his best friend and he knows their secret. Gina tells herself that Emma is a nice person and the family had discussed telling her the truth.

Meanwhile, Isabella, Horacio, Marianna, and Alejandro are at Isabella's house, planning their next moves.

Back at Hector's house,

Gina takes a deep breath and says that things aren't that, simple. Emma says that while things are complicated, they seem even worse because she is stubborn and proud. Gina says that she has something to tell her, something that is her biggest secret. Emma says she is listening. Gina takes a deep breath and says that her real name is Gabriela Montes De Alba. Emma's eyes widen and then she rolls her eyes. She tells Gina, to stop joking.

Gina tells Emma that she isn't joking. Emma still not believing her says that she's supposed to have a twin brother. Gina says Hector is her brother and his real name is Hernan. Emma paces around and says that this is all too unbelievable. She adds that she just cannot believe that she (Gina) and Hector are the missing twins. Emma tells Gina that she still doesn't believe her.

Back at Isabella's house,

Marianna says that Aurelio and Aranza might cause trouble in the future. Horacio says he doesn't see how that will affect them. Marianna says that Aranza is Adrianna's cousin and has also grown very close to Hector and Gina. She adds that Aranza would obviously prefer Hector whom she has grown to see as a brother to be with Adrianna. Marianna then continues and says that she loves and respects Antonio because he filled in the big brother role after her siblings died and she would want him to be with Gina whom she has grown to see as a sister.

Isabella tells Marianna that she does have a point then asks about Aurelio. Marianna says that he is Antonio's cousin, and grew up with Gina, like family and he would want them to be together. She then adds, that equally he grew up with Hector and would prefer him with Adrianna because she is Aranza's cousin and they have all grown close. Alejandro adds that Aranza is a sneaky kid and very smart. He adds that people say she is like a teenage version of her father. He then says that Aurelio is a Diaz, and if he has any traits like the rest of his family that is trouble.

Shortly after, at Hector and Gina's house.

Gina has already told Emma the whole story from when she and her brother were abandoned in the forest, till then. Emma tells Gina that she is going to have to try harder to convince her. Gina takes Emma to her room and shows her, her jewellery box. She then picks out a piece, and opens it, and shows her, a picture of Antonio and his mother, when he was young. She says that Antonio gave it to her on her eighth birthday. Emma looks at Gina, still unable to believe who her friend actually is.

Meanwhile, Antonio is at his house,

It doesn't feel much like home, without Gina in it. It misses her presence. He is in the sitting room when the door rings. He tells himself that he hopes it isn't Isabella. He walks over and opens it. He frowns when he sees it is his grandmother. He nevertheless lets her in.

Back at Isabella's house,

She agrees that they should keep an eye on both Aurelio and Aranza. She then asks for progress on their plans. Horacio says that Claudia is very keen to help them threaten Gina using John, to get her to marry him. Alejandro adds that he is also willing to help them threaten Adrianna as well, all as long as his name is kept out of it.

Isabella says they will. She then adds that it is only smart to keep a backup copy of any evidence so that if Claudia was ever to betray them, they could reveal the truth to Antonio. Everyone agrees that it is the best thing to do. Marianna then asks them if they don't find it weird that Gina loves the mad man enough to give up Antonio. Horacio says that it doesn't matter, as long as it plays into their hands.

Back at Hector's house,

Emma tells Gina that she understands, why she and her brother kept away for so long, after what happened to them and their father. She then asks Gina why they haven't revealed themselves since they arrived in the city. Gina says that they wanted to take back what was rightfully theirs, but they didn't want to run it down either, so they wanted to have some knowledge of how it operates.

Gina continues and says that the plan was to learn for three to five years, then reveal themselves, and eventually run it with Aranza, Antonio, and Adrianna. When Gina stops, Emma says that things became complicated when love came into the picture. Gina nods. Emma says she understands but says that if they (Hector and Gina) were to reveal who they were, they could end all the drama and regain their identities.

Back at Antonio's house,

Antonio is sitting in the dining room, opposite his grandmother, throwing dagger eyes at her. He asks her what she wants. Claudia says that she has come to speak to him in peace. Antonio frowns and asks if that is even possible. He then asks her what trouble she has come to cause this time. Claudia says that she has come to talk about his future. Antonio frowns but he doesn't answer her back or react. Claudia continues and says now that he has broken up with Gina, he should get back with Isabella and form a family with their son. Antonio frowns and says that he loves Gina and that even if she wasn't in the picture, he would never get back together with Isabella.

Back at Hector's house,

Gina insists that she and Hector cannot reveal themselves. Emma asks her why. Gina takes a deep breath and says that there's more. Emma tells Gina not to keep her in suspense. Gina says that her father is alive. Emma is shocked and holds her chest. She asks Gina how her father survived such a tragic and ruthless attempt on his life. Gina says it is because of God and because her father is superman.

Back at Antonio's house,

He tells his grandmother, that he is getting tired of her meddling and trying to control his life. He says that the way things are going, he is going to cut her off. Claudia seems genuinely shocked. She says that Gina is a bad influence on him, and is turning him against her. Antonio says that she needs to get new hobbies and leave him alone. He says that she is an idle old woman and she needs to get a life. Claudia is genuinely hurt by his comments. Antonio makes no attempt to apologize to his grandmother.
