Chapter 21: Dante Ruiz Appears
“Gavin, what do you think I should do?” Gavin was thinking when suddenly Alden asked a question. He wanted to listen to his brother’s opinion. Someone you can trust.
“Rest, relax your mind. Don’t remember the bad things, only the good things.” Gavin smacked his lips and said, “That’s all I can sincerely advise you. Besides, every decision is up to you, my stupid brother. No matter what choice you choose, I will always respect you. However, if you ask me if I should forgive Emma, the answer is no. And if you really mean it, I will stop at all costs. I don’t want you to get hurt by this man. that cruel woman again. She absolutely doesn’t deserve forgiveness.”
He continued to remain silent.
“Alden, listen to your heart but don’t let things go wrong.” Gavin has a reminder.
The atmosphere seemed to be very gloomy, caused by Alden’s sad mood. Therefore, Gavin wanted to change the topic of the conversation, to make it more fun.
“Keva came to the house for dinner today.” Gavin said he was very excited about it: “I need to prepare some things.”
“Keva is a good woman. You should cherish her.” It’s a bit of a pity, Alden said, because he didn’t realize how good Keva was compared to Emma. He also admitted that he was jealous of his brother, for meeting a woman like Keva.
“You know that.” Gavin pretended not to look from Alden’s side, to see the typical sadness of someone who’s been through a rough patch in life, in a situation: “Now get up from bed, take a shower, and then get ready for dinner. .”
Taking a cool shower brings relaxation to the body, and trying to join Gavin brings calm to his mind. It helps him lose focus, and realize that the world is still spinning, and he has to keep living. He just didn’t know if he could trust any other woman anymore.
…
Cara is in the hospital, with no contact with the outside world. She felt that her day had passed very boringly. In fact, since she lost her family, she couldn’t have a full day of rest. She either stayed in the library, studying all she could to get into a good university, or worked odd jobs here and there, to save money. At times, she was tired, forgot the time, and had to sleep all night in front of the orphanage’s door. And sometimes her dinner is some leftovers from customers in the restaurants where she works. Now, looking into this spacious room, she felt the comfortable bed, and even though the bed was far from the window, she could still admire the view of the city. Cara tried to search in her mind, when was the last time she was this calm. And despite the recent misfortunes, she felt at peace. Her thoughts and peace were interrupted when the door opened.
“Hi, are you okay?” That’s Nurse Ame. She brought along a few extra magazines, to help ease Cara’s boring hours.
“Everything’s fine,” Cara said smiling.
“That sounds very good. These were just published this morning. I brought them to you to read, so you don’t get bored.”
“Thanks.” Cara picked up the magazine and remembered the last time she looked at one. There is an article about a movie that is hot and has thousands of fans.
Ame returned to her mission and left Caraa to start flipping through the magazine. There are many new things. There were so many celebrities that it was difficult for her to decipher who was who, and with a small notebook and pen in hand, she jotted down important notes. While Cara was looking at the magazine, a young man with blond hair and bright blue eyes crept into her room and looked at her in amazement. No matter what state Cara is in, she is still very beautiful. He cleared his throat in his presence because it wouldn’t be good to scare Cara.
“Dante.” Cara looked up and smiled at her visitor.
“Hi, girl.” The person with the name Dante Ruiz answered her.
“How did you know I was here?” Cara wondered at his appearance.
“Helen’s family called the club. They told her what had happened to her and said she was here now. It took a lot of restraint to not find that bastard Alden for making her so bad.”
“Do you know him?” She asked surprised.
He stepped closer to her ever since, and arbitrarily took her hand and made small circles on it, with his thumb. A sign that Cara doesn’t know what it means.
“Yes, it could be said that we were childhood friends.”
“This is really amazing. Yesterday they came to visit me. His mother invited me to live with them until I fully recovered.” Cara blurts out.
“And you accepted?” Dante prayed that she refused.
“I’ve tried, but… She has such a penetrating gaze that I can’t honestly refuse.” Cara hesitated to admit it. To be honest, she is still confused about her decision.
“Agatha is a formidable and terrifying woman.” Dante said: “But rest assured, you will be treated very well. Aunt Agatha is a wonderful mother. And I’m sure she will pamper you a lot.”
“Why would a stranger do this to me?” Cara wondered, a little taken aback by his comment.
Dante Ruiz sighed and couldn’t help but laugh as he recalled his childhood, witnessing many interesting things about Helen’s family. Until the age of five, Alden was forced to wear girls’ clothes. At that time, Agatha was so excited about her second child that she assumed it was a girl. She went shopping for her daughter’s clothes until she was five years old. However, after an ultrasound, Alden is a boy.
“She always wanted a daughter, but god sent two men.” He revealed, “And unfortunately she lost another person, and then couldn’t have anyone else.”
“Really.” Cara felt pity, but decided not to discuss, but changed the subject to make the atmosphere less gloomy: “How are things at the club? Do I still have my job?”NôvelDrama.Org content.
Dante chuckled and patted the top of Cara’s head. With her current health, she still worries about her job. But soon, he was sure Cara would never have to work again. He guarantees it if she accepts his feelings.
“Uncle sent a phone call in her absence. He was very concerned and volunteered to take care of her. But Ethan said it was their responsibility. He assured me that she would continue to work at the club. set, if you still want to.”
Cara clapped her hands happily and thanked heaven and earth for the good news. So you don’t have to worry about unemployment. But she forgot that she had to be treated for a year. That was way too long to wait.
Seeing Cara smiling and talking made Dante less nervous. Recalling the previous day, the day Cara went to the interview club, Dante’s heart was filled with emotions. At the time, she didn’t have any qualifications for the position, but he was so captivated by her innocent appearance that he hired her without too much assessment and taught her all he could. I know.
From the moment Cara appeared, Dante Ruiz had fallen in love.
