Snippets 93
Rigoberto threatened Consuelo that she could expose all her evil deeds if she does not confess everything to Don and seek for his forgiveness before it is too late. She agreed with Rigo.

Rigo went to tell Don that Consuelo had some things she wanted to confess to him, that, he should give her an audience.

Ordonez told Carlos that L.F came around to his house. Immediately, Carlos ran out searching for L.F. Alfredo, when he came looking for L.F, was told by Marissa that L.F has not allowed Carlos to rest and focus on his matrimonial affairs.

Because of Carlos disappearance from the house on the supposed date of his wedding to Jenny. Marissa and Jenny were devastated, and Marissa had a nervous breakdown. It was Alfredo who attended to her medically.

The court found Carlos guilty because police investigations could not produce the alleged culprits who committed the crime of attempted assassination of L.A. The only evidence available were the weak verbal accusations of Solozarno and Armando against Carlos. He was jailed. Luisa Fernanda visited Carlos in prison as a show of solidarity with him.

Marissa was crushed by the judgment of her son, she confronted L.A and called him a liar, because of his false assurance that, Armando would not stand to witness against Carlos in court, and would withdrew his statement, all of which did not happen.

Marissa faces Luis Alexander to him to have lain and to assure to him that arming it had retired his denunciation. Luisa Fernanda visits Carlos Eduardo in the jail.

Snippets 94
Carlos was surprised that L.F was not ready to marry him. She told him that each of them were already committed to their respective fiancees and advised him that they should go through with their respective wedding arrangements, and not break the hearts of their respective partners.

L.A denied Marissa's accusation. He said he told Armando withdraw from the case, but was equally surprised that the boy stubbornly refused to listen to him. Marissa got so angry that she confronted Armando and dismissed him as an employee of the bank. L.A later assured Armando that he would set him up in his own legal chambers to practice law.

Ordonez employed the services of a lawyer to appeal the judgment and seek for the release of Carlos Eduardo.

The imprisonment of Carlos was a great opportunity for all his enemies to take full advantage of. After the lawyer successfully appealed the sentence of Carlos and got him out on bail, Jennifer and Marissa went with the lawyer to escort Carlos from prison to the house. As soon as they got home, that very day, Jenny and Marissa got the judge at the marriage registry, to come home immediately to officiate the joining of Carlos to her in an 'holy matrimony'. She was afraid and didn't want to wait for a second longer, because she heard that while Carlos was in jail, L.F had come to visit him.

Alfredo too was alarmed by the second visit of L.F to the prison to see Carlos. He too demanded immediate marriage. L.F conceded to his request. Joaquina noticed that L.F was in sorrow because of that decision. L.F denied, saying she was happy. She wept sorrowfully after Joaquina left.

Caesar approached Carlos and told him that he should see it as significant that Alfredo and L.F would be having their own wedding simultaneously (at the same time) as Carlos and Jennifer. Carlos turned red with jealousy at this fresh information from Caesar.

Carol heard the most thrilling story of her life when, her fiance confessed to her that he was on the verge of being imprisoned because of the many shady and fraudulent deals L.A inspired him to execute while he was the bank's president. He told her that, neither him nor his father would escape been jailed if the truth contained in those bank documents were found out.

Don Fernando Alcantara, now with gradual recovery of his memory, began to ask Vanessa who the mother of Luicito was. Vanessa told Don the story of how L.F and her mother had a tragic auto accident which killed the mother. Just as she was about to mention Amelia's name, Consuela deliberately interrupted the flow and announced that there was a great fight between Roberto and somebody at the steel factory, that needed Don's intervention and attention.

Detective Solozarno phoned L.A to let him know that Carlos had just been released from prison.

Snippets 95
The case for adoption of Salvador reached fever pitch because it has turned around to backfire on Pedro. He was now being accused of having kidnapped Salvador. The judge found Pedro a culpable suspect, and asked that, he be remanded in prison with option of bail until the next adjournment.

Based on Ceasar's alert, that L.F would marry Alfredo, that same day, as Carlos, Carlos Eduardo decided to go see L.F 'for the last time' before their respective weddings, per chance, she would change her mind at the 11th hour, and agree to marry him. When he got there, he asked her why she was in such an unusual hurry to wed Alfredo. While they were talking, Joaquina called her on phone that Pedro has been remanded in prison as suspect, in the twisted case of Salvador's adoption.

L.F was upset by this news; Carlos offered to support and drives her to the court to see Pedro. By the time Alfedo arrived, he was furious to see Carlos in the company of L.F. and protested his presence around his wife-to-be. A confrontation was inevitable between the two. Meanwhile, the Judge from the marriage registry that would join Jenny and Carlos together in 'holy wedlock' arrived in Marissa's house. Jenny was so desperate because Carlos was not around. She phoned the hospital and was told by Nurse Graziela that, Carlos had not come to the hospital that day. Jenny was heartbroken to learn that Carlos had lied to her in order to escape and avoid the wedding ceremony. She later found out that he had gone to L.f's house. The wedding had to be postponed indefinitely. When Carlos got back, he told her that he has confirmed that Pedrito was truly his child by L.F.

The judge imposed a surety of very huge sum of money to guarantee that Pedro, would not jump bail. L.f had to submit the house and business assets of Pedro to stand surety before he could be released. After they all came out of the court premises, Alfredo reminded L.F that their wedding was that day, L.F told him that she is no longer interested in marrying him.

L.A strolled to the Metropolitan Bank's head office and continued to pose as the president. Ordonez suspected that he must have had a hidden agenda, to show up in the bank, right after he was discharged from the hospital. So, he phoned Marissa to alert her that her ailing husband has resumed in the bank as the president. Marissa assured Ordonez not to worry. L.A challenged and accused him of stealing bank documents and keeping them in private houses.

Since Marissa sack Armando and since Jenny threw them out of her apartment, he and Carol had been swimming in an ocean of debts. Armando told her that he was living on the threshold of jail.

Don Fernando, in spite of Heriberto's opposition, has endorsed the relationship of Vanessa and Chante, and has asked him to move in, and live in the house with the family.

Snippets 96
Alfredo was stunned beyond recovery to hear L.F's declaration that she was no longer interested in marrying him. He was so agitated and confused, on his wedding day, when his bride-to-be say no, more marriage. Pedro was not released immediately, so Carlos offered to pay the sum guarantee for his bail. L.F objected to Carlos offer because she doesn't want Carlos' gift to stir up further quarrels between the two rivals.

Jennifer was so angry with the disappointment of her suspended wedding because of the absence of her Groom-to-be, Carlos. She accused him of humiliating her in public by being absent on the supposed day of their wedding. Carlos explained to her he went to help L.F rescue Pedro from being jailed for an alleged kidnap case.

Marissa went to visit Pedro in detention and had a long talk with him. He told her that Salvador dreaded going back to his parents; he said the parents were poor and because of child abuse, like subjecting him to beg for alms for survival, that was why the boy ran off his parents. Marissa therefore commissioned the detectives to locate the real parents of Salvador, but Pedro objected to her efforts to help him.

Carol confronted and accused L.A of having corrupted her innocent Fiance, Armando. L.A lambasted her for accusing him of being a criminal. He told her how even her sister, Jennifer was also his business partner in all his shady deals. carol went angrily to question Jenny if L.A's allegation was true. After she left, L.A was angry with Armando for opening his mouth to tell Carol, all their shady deals together. He told him how Carol came to accuse him of being a corrupt businessman.

Don Fernando miraculously found a photograph of Amelia and Consuelo when they were young, at home. He told Consuelo that while he recognized her in the picture, the other person looked so much in resemblance to Luisito. Consuela was afraid of Don's discovery, she didn't want Don to ever remember Amelia again, so, she had to lie that the other person in the picture does not resemble Luisito but an old school mate and childhood friend, who used to live in the neighborhood.

Don was not satisfied with Consuelo's explanation; Consuelo too was not satisfied with that Picture in Don's custody. At the slightest opportunity, she stole the picture fro her father. When Don called Rigoberto to come and confirm his discovery of similarity of Luisito and Consuelo's partner in a picture he found at home, he was astonished to find that the picture had disappeared into thin air.

Carlos went to visit his son in L.F's house while he was playing with his kid, astaff of the social welfare department came to interview her, in respect of Salvador. Alfredo too came in a few minutes later, he was so furious to find Carlos inside L.F's house. He launched out his fist of fury to land on Carlos face, but missed and the punch landed on the social welfare staff.

Snippets 97
The social welfare staff was so angry because of the mistaken blow of Alfredo that landed on him, he refused to conduct the interview again and left in annoyance. L.F was angry with Alfredo's behavior which she said was uncivilized. Carlos was enjoying himself, watching the acrimonious argument between this so-called 'couple'. Alfredo was really troubled to see L.F, for the second time in two weeks, siding with Carlos Eduardo in his confrontation with him. He therefore angrily left L.F's house.

Carlos mocked her, after Alfredo left, saying that maybe Alfredo forgot his own key to the house and had come to collect hers. L.F explained that they were not living together as a couple because they were yet to marry, so she couldn't have had a copy of Alfredo's house key. Besides, she told him that she is not the type of girl that jumps on any man's bed before marriage. Carlos was surprised by her puritanical claims, so, he asked her pointedly if Alfredo had ever had sex with her, she was so annoyed by his romantic inquisition and she told him, there has never been such conjugal affair between her and Alfredo.

The social welfare staff now went to interview Pedro in prison and also told him about the fight that ensued between two rivals over his daughter, in his house earler in the day, and how one of them landed him a blow. The social welfare staff confided in Pedro that it would be almost impossible for the court to grant him his request of adopting Salvador because of the tensed atmosphere of rivalry and fierce battle between two lovers of his daughter which he had witnessed earlier in the day. She wrote the report and submitted it to the judge in charge of the case.

After Carlos left, L.F went in search of Alfredo to explain the mission of Carlos to her house, and also to apologize to him. Alfredo refuses to come out of his house to see her. He told her that the relationship between them is damaged irreparably, so, she should go away. She begged and reminded him that she is still interested in marriage to him. He was happy with the announcement and came out to embrace her. They both went to the bank to complete the mortgage transactions of Pedro's asset for his bail.

When they arrived in the prison to tell Pedro how far they have gone to ensure his bail, he changed gear and for the first time, began to blame his puppet, Alfredo, and of course, Carlos Eduardo in absentia for making him to lose the custody of Salvador, because of their unruly behavior in the morning.

L.A has lost confidence in his son, Armando. He passed the baton to Solozarno. He asked Solo to take all the stolen boxes of implicating documents to hide in his house away from Armando, because he could not keep his mouth shut to Carol, describing him as a weakling with women.

Ordonez warned Carlos that the stolen bank documents may be found hidden in Jenny's apartment, because that was where L.A was living. Carlos was shocked with that news, and when he got home he asked Jenny if L.A was living in her house. Jenny was shocked by this unexpected question targeted at a well-kept secret between her and Marissa. she stammered and lied that it was not so.

Carlos did not believe her, so he went to Jenny's apartment and was surprised to meet L.A there. He confronted him and demanded that he should return all the bank's stolen documents in his care back to him (Carlos).

Marissa organized a party in her house and invited Consuelo and the Alcantaras. She also invited close associates and made sure to bring Pedrito. She was showcasing Pedrito as her grandson. Jenny was threatened by the public presentation of Pedrito as Marissa's grandson. It was the height of unsolicited provocation; she confronted Marissa and told her that she (Marissa) was publicly humiliating her. Consulo too was very uncomfortable to learn that Pedrito was the son of her hated niece Luisa Fernanda.

We missed snippets 98, but not much was missed. We'd try
to fill the ga, ps where possible, but the flow is still alright.
********************************************************
Carlos must have come back home to tell his mom that L.A was colliding with and living in Jenny's house with the stolen Bank's documents. He must have decided to break engagement with Jenny for lying to him and colliding with L.A. his worst enemy, , Marissa must have taken responsibility for L.A's accommodation in Jenny's house, but must have been surprised herself, with the allegation of stolen documents, being hidden by L.A in Jenny's house. The judge must have ruled that Salvador be taken to a social welfare home, pending the time his real parents show up. This must have upset L.F. Armando must have been depressed by the news that his Dad, L.A has lost confidence in him, he might have quarrel with Carol for going to confront L.A with the secrets he shared with her.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Marissa was wroth with L.A concerning the news that the stolen bank's documents being in his custody. He denied it and accused Carlos of fabricating that 'lie' in order to separate him and her.

Armando was drunk silly due to his depression on the authority that slipped through his fingers to Solozarno, due to Carol's indiscretion. He had Lucero waiting to console him, and he took her to a motel where he slept with her, all night. When he came home the next day, Carol was furious with Armando because, she suspected he had slept with another woman. She said his body smelled of a strange woman's perfume.

Carlos was asked by L.F to leave her alone when he visited her, reason: she was upset by the state acquisition of Salvador from Pedro's custody. He was concerned by her attitude as he took his leave. Alfredo came to pick her and they both succeeded in getting Pedro bailed, after securing his release with his house and business property assets as surety. When Pedro got home and found that Salvador has been 'confiscated' on the order of the judge by the social welfare department, he was so furious that he proceeded to Social welfare home where motherless and fatherless youngsters are kept. The staff there refused to grant him permission to 'retrieve' or even see Salvador.

When Carlos returned home, he found Jenny weeping. Nana Rosario and Jenny had quarreled again. She had threatened Rosario with sack for not supporting her in the battle for Carlos love. Rosario had assured her that she (Jennifer) would be the one to be sent packing, because Carlos does not love her. Marissa joined the fray by accusing Carlos of mistreating Jenny. Jenny took advantage of the confusion to threaten that she would leave the house because of being victimised by Carlos and Rosario.

Next day is next court adjournment; L.A got Solozarno ready as his most trusted witness to sink Carlos Eduardo in the legal battle. At the court, Don Fernando appeared to show his solidarity with his favorite boy, Carlos Eduardo. When Marissa was called to the witness box, she admitted under cross-examination, that she once heard Carlos threatening to kill her

Snippets 100
When Jenny was called up to the witness box, she desperately defended Carlos Eduardo with all her vigor, against the alleged assassination attempt. She had no option because, if Carlos had sunk, her dreams of being the wife of a multi-Billionaire banker would also sink. Armando, as usual maintained that he heard Carlos planning to kill his father, L.A. L.F also showed up in court, just like Don, to give Carlos a moral support. When Jenny discovered that L.F was among the crowd that came to the courtroom to give Carlos a moral solidarity, her eyes turned red with jealousy and rage.

Lawyer Mujica related a past account before the judge, during the trial, of how L.A had once threatened Carlos with a pistol in front of the hospital where he worked. He told the court how L.A was arrested and charged with attempted homicide. He also told how Marissa persuaded Carlos to withdraw the charges for harmony's sake in the family.

L.A was called to the witness box, and he asserted that there is only one person who stands to benefit from his death. That person, he pointed out, was Carlos Eduardo, his mortal enemy, who hope to upstage him from the Presidency of the Metropolitan Bank. He feign compassion and love for Carlos, ever since he married Marissa 20 years ago, he said that Carlos had made him a sworn enemy despite hid abundant love overtures to him as a step son, in fact like his own son, which he never had by Marissa.

Marissa was deeply touched by the public confession of love for Carlos by L.A. Carlos however knew that it was all a facade to cover his evil plot against Marissa and him. The public prosecutor asked for more time to investigate and establish the innocence of Carlos Eduardo, and it was granted by the Jury.

After the adjournment, Jenny deployed fresh moves to separate Carlos and L.F at the court house; she went to him while he was thanking L.F for her solidarity. Carlos thanked Jenny too for her testimony in his favor, despite having broke engagement with her. She replied that she did it for love and is ready to stand by him through thick and thin, saying she would never stop loving him. L.F became jealous the way Jenny was holding Carlos. She took excuse and left the scene.

When Pedro came back from the Social Welfare Home, he was devastated and depressed, because he had no power to rescue Salvador from the welfare home. Salvador began to plan with one of the inmates how they would escape from the home. Alfredo with his lawyer friend decided to trace the biological parents of Salvador to a jungle suburb of Mexico. They were harrassed and almost beaten up my miscreants who live in that district.

The solicitor-general and the legal department dug into investigation of the case and found document which pointed to the real culprits that attempted to assassinate L.A. The culprits were arrested promptly.

Salvador and his partner escaped from the Welfare home, and arrived at Pedro's house. He was worried by the breaking of the law by Salvador.

Snippets 101
After the trial was adjourned, L.A celebrated with feasting with his boys, Solozarno and Armando. They were sure that Carlos would not escape jail sentence with all their testimony fortified at the next adjourned date for the trial.

Marissa quarrelled with Carlos for his unchanging attitude towards Jenny despite the fact that that she risked her 'reputation' to testify in his favor during the court proceedings. He maintained to his mom, that while he appreciated Jenny's testimony during the trial, he does not love her to the point of marrying her.

Vanessa, having turned a new leaf, advised her bosom friend, L.F never to loose the opportunity of her lifetime happiness by going headlong into an unhappy and sacrificial marriage to Alfredo. Jenny came to L.F's house to fight her and accuse her of destroying her happiness with her 'fiancé', Carlos Eduardo. L.F confronted her that she was a liar, because she had been colluding, collaborating and even accommodating the worst enemy of Carlos Eduardo- L.A.

The culprits were tortured and they eventually confessed that it was Leopoldo who paid them to assassinate L.A. Leopoldo was arrested and interrogated by the detectives. Ordonez called and told Carlos that two suspects have been arrested and confessed to the crime of attempted assassination of L.a. He told him that they fingered a man called Leopoldo as their 'paymaster', Carlos was surprised and told Ordonez that Leopoldo was L.A's best friend.

When Salvador arrived, Pedro advised him to disappear for a while, into thin air, until the tension calms down. Salvador and his escapee friend slept the night on a dark and narrow street. By the time Alfredo arrived at Pedro's house, his body was full of bruises, due to the beatings he received from miscreants in Salvador's parent’s bunker. Sister Joaquina called L.F aside and accused her of deceiving Alfredo with matrimonial promise when she doesn't even have an iota of love for him.

The Parents of Salvador came to the police station, and met Pedro there. They called him a kidnapper, and he responded by wanting to fight them, before he was held and calmed down by people around.

Don Fernando appeared again at the court house in solidarity with Carlos on the day of resumed hearings. So also was L.F. L.A was shocked to the marrow when the judge asked that Leopoldo and the assassins be produced. During cross-examination, Leopoldo admitted that he was the one who sent hired assassins against L.A.

Snippets 102
For L.A, Leopoldo was a lesser enemy, his mortal foe is Carlos Eduardo, so, he insisted that Carlos was the real sponsor of assassination attempt on him. He accused Carlos of having paid Leopoldo to take the rap in his stead, for his own freedom.

Leopoldo gave a graphic detail in his trial before the jury, what led him to assigned assassins to kill L.A. He became desperate and began to shout on top of his voice accusing Leopoldo of lying and wished that the trial would be disrupted. The punches with Leopoldo's truth is delivering are heavy blows to his head. In rounding up his evidence, Leopoldo told the jury that the real target of L.A was Marissa. He said L.A planned to kill Marissa so that, as the widower, he would inherit Metropolitan Bank Conglomerate belonging to Marissa and her son. He related the horrific details told him by Andreina before she ran away to Los Angeles, how L.A plan to murder son and mother to inherit their fortune.

There was a run on Metropolitan Bank. Customers were amazed at the gory newspaper story of fraud, assassinations and emotional scandals that has begun to rock the bank in the absence of Marissa and the presidency of Luis Alejandro. So, they began to withdraw their funds from the financial powerhouse. Ordonez had to instruct all branches of the Bank to shut down because of the run on the bank.

Jenny is doing anything that would bring Carlos back into her slippery fingers. The classy lady of the universe stoops low to plead for mercy and pardon by a lowly old maid of the house. She begged Nana Rosario to forgive her for threatening to sack her from her 30-year old job of impeccable service to the Gomez Ruiz family. Rosario snubbed Jenny's overtures, because she knew for certainty that this schemer was not sincere in her 'repentance'.

L.F was overjoyed as the jury believed Leopoldo. Marissa broke down in tears, asking Carlos Eduardo to forgive her fort not believing him all these years. L.A pleaded with Marissa not to believe Leopoldo, saying that he lied against him out of jealousy for Andreina's sake. He desperately made overtures to buy off Leopoldo to change his statement, but Leo rebuffed him.

As the crowd milled around congratulating Carlos, he asked to be excused so that he can speak alone with L.F who was by his side.

The Parents of Salvador came to the floral shop of Pedro to negotiate an out-of-court settlement. They told him she should locate the boy and bring him back to them, that they would give him money in return.

Heriberto had never liked Chante because of his low class, he retuned from the office to find him kissing Vanessa his daughter. He almost hit him with a rod of iron.

Salvador, later phoned pedro in the night to assure him that he is fine with his fellow escapee inmate and he should not worry for him, before Pedro could say anything, he (Salvador) hung up

Snippets 103
With the exposure of the cunning L.A, Marissa woke up from her day dream. Ordonez rushed to the courtroom to break the bad news of customers running on the bank. Marissa immediately revoked the power of attorney which she gave to L.A to become the Bank's president. She also asked Mujica to resume speedily the divorce suit against L.A.

Cowardly Alfredo was mortally afraid of the new twist, of Carlos' freedom after the adjournment of the court. L.F assured him (Alfredo) that she is eternally indebted to him for helping her to regain her freedom from jail, and therefore, she would not withdraw from the elaborate marriage ceremony she had planned with him. Alfredo was sad, because, from his understanding, what L.F is saying now is that, she would marry him because she was indebted to him for helping her out of jail, and not because she loved him.

After the adjournment, L.A spoke with boldness to Jenny, telling her that if he sinks, she too would sink. He therefore told her to go and convince Marissa that He was innocent, and that Leopoldo's allegation was that of a jealous Andreina lover who chose to spite him. But Jennifer reminded him that Andreina had made the same allegation before she disappeared into thin air.

When L.F got home she gave a lowdown of what happened in court to Pedro. He was agitated, and L.F noticed that her 'father' was in love with Marissa. She smiled when Pedro quickly got prepared to pay Marissa a solidarity visit. She advised him to carry along the most beautiful of red roses from his floral shop to her as a gift, signaling his intention.

When Jenny arrived, Marissa accused her of being an accomplice of L.A, she denied it, expressing her innocence. She even went further, as instructed by L.A, to postulate to Marissa that Leopoldo's allegation were the statement of a drowning man, who would clutch to any straw of vengeance to strike back with a fist of jealousy against a former rival, over Andreina. Marissa seems to be convinced about L.A's innocence as argued by Jenny,

Armando also visited Marissa's house. He came to apologize and asked for forgiveness, both of Carlos for testifying falsely against him in court and Marissa for refusing to withdrew his charges against Carlos when Marissa asked him to.

Rosario called her boy, Carlos, and encouraged him never to be shackled with a woman he never loved. She warned him to avoid the emotional ambush that Jenny may be setting for him. He thanked he and strolled out to L.F's house. He declared his unwavering love for her, asking her what is the fate of their love for each other, now that he has been free of all accusations by their common enemy- L.A.

L.A sent Solozarno to the prison to negotiate with Leopoldo offering him a sum of One million Dollars if he could withdraw his statement and accuse Carlos Eduardo of being the one that paid the hired assassins to kill him.

Don Fernando Alcantara expressed a fresh need to write a new Will. Consuelo was afraid when she heard the old man wanted to change his will. Through gullible but innocent Vanessa, Consuelo got to know that Pedro is almost naked because he had mortgaged his house and business assets to bail himself from the pending case of kidnap/adoption of Salvador saga. Consuelo hurriedly and discretely employed a lawyer and estate agent to buy up Pedro's mortgage from the bank. Her purpose was to strip L.F naked of a roof over her head and make her life unbearable.

Snippets 104
After Carlos pleaded his case for their love and matrimonial re-union, L.F accused him of being ungrateful to Jenny who stood by him throughout his mother's travail with muscular dystrophy, for two years in Baltimore. She begged him not to disappoint Jenny after all her 'sacrifice' for him.

When Leopoldo refused the offer of a million Dollars bribe from L.A through Solozarno for his silence, L.A changed gear, by contracting Solozarno to find someone within the prison walls who could murder Leopoldo for the same amount (?), before the next adjournment date.

Marissa was distressed with doubts about the innocence of L.A. So she begged Jennifer de la Schemer to help fish out Andreina to confirm the truth of Leopoldo's allegations.

While the judge was considering denying Pedro the custody of Salvador, Luisa Fernanda gave testmony of how Pedro was a loving father that cared for Salvardor, the judge was moved by her honest witness. Salvador and his escapee friend were arrested and brought to court. During the trial, Salvador told the court the history of child-abuse, maltreatment and exploitation by his real parents, and the sharp contrasts he enjoyed from Pedro's fatherly care and love. He declared that if he had any father, Pedro Perez, was his father. After this fact the judge was moved, to promise that he would give the custody of Salvador to Pedro after completion of formal adoption papers.

L.A resurfaced in the Bank's head office and Carlos confronted him to get out, because Marissa had revoked his power of attorney to act as the president. He also told him that divorce proceedings of Marissa had resumed against him. L.A, on hearing this ran to Marissa weeping crocodile tears, and telling her that he was victim of jealous conspiracy by the enemies of their re-union. He begged her not to throw him unto the streets again. She asked him to give her time to think over his appeal for mercy. When Carlos came home Marissa told Carlos what L.A came to do. He told his mother not to listen to him, and also assured her that he would uncover all the fraudulent deals of L.A when he was bank's president in a matter of time.

Jenny came to plead with Carlos again to restore their love relationship. Carlos told her to give him time to clear all the problems created in his family and time to also reflect over her pleas, he assured her that he would send for her when he is ready to resume talks with her.

Don Fernando Alcantara contacted a fresh lawyer, after the disgrace of L.A in court. He wanted to write a new Will. Consuela became desperate and mortally afraid that Don would soon regain his full memory at the rate he was going, and that he would soon remember that he had a grand daughter.

Everybody were happy and were expecting the release of Salvador for adoption. They were eagerly waiting for his arrival when a knock came on the door. Alas! it was Consuelo's lawyer who came in and told them that the property has been acquired by a new owner. He seved them notice to quit the property immediately as requested by the faceless and undisclosed new owner.

Snippets 105
After the lawyer's threat to evacuate them from the house, Lupe, as Marissa's private secretary, passed the information to her, to help rescue Pedro and family, who were under eviction notice from the new owner who acquired the mortgage debt of their house. Marissa sent for Pedro to get the real facts from him. This was good news to Jenny. Anything that would inflict pain on L.F was her obsession. She later scolded Lupe for mentioning the case of L.F's father's eviction to Marissa for intervention.

Carlos, when he heard of the problem ran to L.F's house to assist to recover the house. But Alfredo told him not to worry, that he had resolved the whole problem. So Carlos left.

Carlos called Jenny to allow him search through her apartment to see if L.A was hiding any stolen bank's document there. She led him to her house to conduct the search, while he was going about the search, Jenny set an emotional ambush for him and he almost fell into the trap, as they were on the verge of having sex, but for the interruption of Carol who came in unannounced. carol came to deliver another 'bomb' about L.A having another child, this time a daughter by another woman, who also did not know the irresponsible man who fathered her. She also told them that Armando was determined to fish out the girl.

Alfredo failed to stop the possession of the property; the Bank told him that, the mortgage has been repurchased by another prospective buyer. When he returned L.F blamed him for jealously sending Carlos away, when he offered to help them. Another quarrel broke out between this incompatible 'couple'. Alfredo was angry and accuse L.F of always tauting him, using Carlos' ability to poke in his face and at his impotence. He told her that he couldn't stand the mockery. He felt humiliated and frustrated that he could not play the 'saviour-god' this time, for L.F and Pedro, as he had always done when Pedro was insane, and when L.F was jailed. He felt very vulnerable and depressed.

Don, after the exposure of the crimes of L.A in court and the disgrace that followed, sacked him as his company's legal adviser.

When Rigo got wind of Pedro's eviction, she ran back home asking Consuelo to help Pedro. L.A was also in the house when Rigo made her request of Consuelo. She faced L.A asking him to help Pedro, L.A told her that much as he would have loved to, he could not because that girl (meaning Luisa Fernanda), is a swindler! Rigo was mad with him, she insisted by telling him that that swindler as he choose to call innocent girl happens to be his daughter! She told him that he has an obligation to help his own flesh and blood!

At that moment, hell was let loose as L.A accused Consuelo of having deliberately hidden the truth of the identity of his daughter from him all this years. Consuelo counter accused him that his interest in that daughter of his was the inheritance willed to her by Don and not for the love of the poor girl. She told him that was why she never revealed her identity to him, since it would threaten her labor to hijack that inheritance.

Immediately, L.A faced Rigo and assured her that he would do anything to help his daughter. After he left, Consuelo was very upset and angry with Rigo for telling L.A about the truth of L.F. All this time Vanessa was hiding out of earshot and she heard all what transpired. She was amazed that Luisa Fernanda, her bosom friend was the unknown granddaughter of Don Fernando Alcantara, and not the gardener's daughter, as everybody were made to believe or be deceived!

Marissa asked Pedro to move into her mansion as she launched full scale investigation to know from the lawyer who the new buyer of Pedro was, as she vowed to pay all the debt to recover that house back for Pedro. L.F refused to follow Pedro to live in Carlos Eduardo's house.

Rigo reacted sharply to Consuela's shakara, saying that the time to play dumb has ended, and that she would expose Consuela to Don, for all the evil she had done to L.F. Consu succeeded in postponing the judgment day, as she promised Rigo that she would, by herself tell Don the whole truth about Luisito, but Rigo should give her a breathing space of time, to get prepared for the task.

Vanessa came out of hiding and confronted Consuelo. She also vowed not to keep quiet, that she would expose the whole truth of her lineage and paternity to Luisa Fernanda. She rushed out to search for L.F, an when she got her, she asked her to talk privily with her, on an urgent secret that she ought to know. As Vanessa opened her mouth to tell her the secret, the social welfare staff entered the house to announce to all present that, Salvador's adoption by Pedro has been approved by the judge.

Everyone went into wild orgy of jubilation and dancing. Vanessa had to leave the scene for another appropriate time, when she hoped to come and tell L.F. the truth. She went straight to indict her father, Heriberto, for colluding with Consuelo to falsify Don's Will in order to deprive L.F of her rightful inheritance.

Pedro and L.F accepted the hand of assistance that Marissa stretched to them. Mujica got in touch with the lawyer representing the new buyer. Despite the mouth-watering offers of Marissa, the lawyer told Mujica that his client won't compromise the purchase of the mortgage debt for any sum of money. Marissa told them that the buyer refused to give up the possession, even with a mouth-watering offer proposed to him. She advised them that they may be in danger of losing the house any moment.

Ordonez and Lupe called Pedro aside, and showed him all the facts of L.F's paternity and how Don had willed all his fortune to her. Ordonez asked him to fulfill that noble role by calling L.F, to tell her that her father was L.A. Pedro was afraid and ashamed, because it looked too late now, if he had to tell L.F, he felt L.F would never forgive him, if he told her the truth now. Sister Joaquina also warned him that this is his best opportunity to tell the truth to L.F about L.A. In the midst of their talk, L.A appeared in Pedro's house to demand once again to meet his daughter.

It was a big drama; As Pedro was accusing him of being an opportunist, seeking for L.F because Don had willed his fortunes to her. L.F came out and was surprised to see L.A. in her house. She did not give him any room for explaining his mission; she chased him out of her house.

Don Fernando, at the edge of his memory breakthrough, suffered an asthmatic attack, which caused a complicated case of brain damage. Consuelo was so overjoyed by this latest development, because it would be in her favor, if Don relapse into amnesia or even die at this point. She knew that she would never have to confess anything about L.F to Don.

Armando went to the prison to interview Leopoldo about who his step sister was, since he (Leopoldo) knew so much about his father, L.A, from their teenage days.

Fearful and cowardly Alfredo went to Carlos and requested him to please, advice and persuade L.F not to renege on her promise to marry him (Alfredo). Carlos laughed at his cowardice and spinelessness. He told him not to worry because, L.F is not a baby. Since she had made a commitment to marry him (Alfredo), based on moral indebtedness to him, and not based on true love, he mocked him saying, L.F would fulfill her moral obligation to him.

Marissa and Mujica considered it weird that a mouth-watering offer to repurchase Pedro's mortgage debt was rejected. They then concluded that whoever the mystery new buyer was, it must be a mortal enemy of Pedro that was determined to cause untold hardship for him and his daughter. There are things money can't buy; a mortal enemy that stands to gain much by your death would not be pacified by money. Marissa, with all her fortune is gradually realizing this truth.

Marissa renewed her offer to Pedro and L.F to come and live in her mansion. Pedro was worried because the adoption of Salvador may be canceled, if the authorities discovered that he does no have a house to bring him up.Alfredo, the opportunist also urged L.F to let both of them marry immediately so that she can have a roof over her head by living with him as his wife.

Jenny phoned L.A to warn him that Carlos now knows through Carol's information that he (L.A) has a daughter by another woman. She warned him that Carlos would tell Marissa this new information and it may negatively affect the consideration of Marissa from forgiving him.

When Marissa offered to buy Pedro a new house, he politely turned down the offer, saying he would prefer the gift of passionate and loving kiss from her. Marissa was touched by his expression of true love; she accepted and gave his a "YES" kiss. While they were at it, L.A arrived with motive to come and disabuse Marissa's mind not to believe whatever Carlos may have come to tell her about him having a daughter by another woman. He was stunned beyond imagination to see Marissa kissing a common gardener. He felt ashamed and humiliated to witness such a scenario. He just withdrew from being seen by the new lovers.

Mujica also called Carlos to alert him that they lost the battle to repurchase Pedro's mortgage debt. He warned him that L.F and her father may be homeless in a matter of days. Carlos thanked him and went to see L.F. He told her that he wanted to buy a new house for his son, Pedrito. Alfredo was threatened by this deft move of Carlos and he expressed his worry about the offer. But L.F insisted and succeeded in convincing Alfredo to let her accept the new house offer of Carlos for Pedrito.

Pedro, after the long and heavenly kissing session with Marissa, declared his unquenchable love for her, she was touched by the honest difference in his expression and accepted to go out with him.

Armando continued his investigation into his mystery half sister. He met and discussed it with Vanessa, and Vanessa told him the identity of his half sister. Consuelo and Heriberto organized a meeting with Vanessa to calm her down and negotiate with her, since she already know their secret agenda to disinherit her bosom friend, Luisa Fernanda.

Ordo'ñez gave a good monetary tip to Consuelo's lawyer to reveal the identity of his principal. He accepted it and told him that it was Consuelo Alcantara.

Pedro, in a more relaxed and happy mood now, because Marissa has accepted his love, wanted to let go L.F by telling her who her biological father was. At that moment, Mujica walked in to break the good news that the Property has been repurchased, though, at a very exorbitant cost. Pedro changed his mind about telling L.F who her real father was.

L.A, seeing the desperate efforts of Armando to unravel who his half sister was, told him that his half sister was Luisa Fernanda.

Don Fernando, on admission at the hospital remained in a state of coma. Carlos announced to Jenny that L.F would be marrying Alfredo at a ceremony tomorrow. Jenny was excited with the news, because that would leave the field clear for only her to win Carlos Eduardo back to loving and marrying her.

Information got to Carlos that it was Consuelo who was behind the purchase and re-selling of Pedro's mortgage debt.He went straight to her house to confront her. Consuelo lied, with crocodile tears that she did not know anything about it. she even said it must have been some fellows who hated her and wanted to harm her that were behind the rumour. Carlos did not believe her. Rigoberto was furious and knew Consuelo was lying. She drew near and walloped her with a heavy handed slap on her face, warning her that she would not tolerate her to do any more harm to her niece, Luisa Fernanda. Rigo tried to explain to Carlos that L.F was Don's granddaughter. He did not understand, thinking that it was like the platonic relationship of a father-son relationship between Don and him too that Rigo meant.

L.F invited Marissa (who came to visit Pedro at home), to her wedding with Alfredo, which takes place tomorrow. Marissa accepted to come as Pedro's guest. Alfredo was still insecured, so he asked L.F who was the person who paid for the mortgage debt. He was suspicious that if it was Carlos, then he may have a hidden agenda for him. L.F told him that it was Mrs. Marissa.

The news of Pedro's romance with Marissa has not gotten to Jenny and Carlos, so he began to make moves to avoid another confrontation with L.A. He felt that his mom was pathetically weak whenever it comes to loving a criminal like L.A. He was troubled that his mom still doubted Leopoldo's witness in court as a jealous rival statement against L.A.

Carlos told Jenny to look for a new apartment for him to rent because, as soon as his mother brings the criminal L.A back, he doesn't want to live in the same house with them. Rosario made a last minute effort to convince Carlos never to give Jennifer a chance in his life, that she would ruin him, if he goes ahead to marry her.

Rigoberto was told by the doctor taking care of Don that, the chances of his full recovery is too low because he had brain damage as a result of wrong drugs that he had used in the past.

When Vanessa got this news from Rigo, she quickly rushed to go and tell L.F, warning her to make sure she visits Don in the hospital, because the doctors said he may not survive. L.F went to the hospital immediately and met Don still in a coma; she began to weep by his bedside. Carlos came in and saw her weeping, he embraced and consoled her.

L.A made several attempts to be reconciled with Marissa, but she rebuffed him, telling him with a tone of finality that the divorce is final and that there would be no 3rd chance for him. Pedro went to the social welfare home, to bring Salvador home so that he too can attend Alfredo and L.F's wedding.

Heriberto seem to have lost his guts, he pleaded with Consuelo to go and settle with L.F because he suspected that Vanessa may have told L.F the truth of her paternity and inheritance. He advised Consuelo to go and confirm to L.F that she was her aunt and seek for her forgiveness before it's too late and things get out of hand.

L.F was missing on her wedding day, so Pedro began to search for her. Doubts began to be cast whether she had ran away with Carlos to avoid being married to Alfredo. Meanwhile Alfredo was lobbying a confused Mujica to give the balance or excess payment for the mortgage to his account.

Carlos, already knowing that L.F was truly the granddaughter of Don, advised her to go and see Consuelo, because she has vital information to pass unto her. L.F thought it was because of the mortgage scandal instigated by Consuelo. When L.F got there, she accused Consuelo of being the evil brain behind the plot to throw Pedro and her unto the street.

Instead of seizing the opportunity to confess to L.F that she was sorry for all her evil deeds against her and that she (L.F) was the true heiress to Don's fortune. Consuela was confident that Don would die in his comatose state, so, she lied and denied knowledge the mortgage scandal. When L.F came back she accused Carlos of sending her on a useless errand, because the woman denied everything. She angrily left for home.

When she got there, she saw that everybody was waiting for her, including Marissa. Pedro took Marissa outside where she told him the news that her divorce was almost completed, and that she would marry him immediately afterwards. The two senior lovers began to kiss in public again, this time; it was Suzanna, Pedro's 10-year secret lover who saw them, from the distance. She was heart-broken and felt betrayed by Pedro. She melted into the background so that they would not see her. She went to report the incident, with tears in her eyes, to Pancho who consoled her.

While Ordonez was chatting with Lupe on how Carlos reacted to the news that L.F was the granddaughter of Don, Reubén, the teenage boyfriend of Lupe, who impregnated her and ran away, returned. Lupe was shocked, so was Ordonez surprised. She accused him of having abandoned her for several years. She also told him that Caesar, his son, had married recently.

Carlos went back to Consuelo to accuse her of being unrepentant by refusing to tell L.F the whole truth. She begged Carlos not to tell L.F that she was the heiress to Don's fortune. After Carlos left, Consuelo called L.A and suggested to him, that they should map out plans to seek and steal the original will of Don which Ordonez had kept in the bank. L.A was not happy with the turn of events, he told Consuelo how he found Pedro and Marissa in a passionate kissing session.

Rosario came to L.F's house to warn her of the danger of going ahead with the weeding to Alfredo, when her heart is with Carlos. L.F admitted that it was true, but it was also too late to back out of her wedding to Alfredo.

Carlos could not bear it anymore, so he planned to disrupt and prevent L.F from Marrying Alfredo that day. Just before he stepped out to actualize his plans, Jennifer arrived and told him that she had gotten a good apartment for him where they would both live together after marriage.

As Xochil dressed Alfredo up in his wedding suit, for the wedding ceremony and he left his house for the church wedding, he ran into a car that hit him. He was rushed to the hospital. it was a tragic accident, there was need to perform operation on him in an emergency.

Carlos walked into the hospital to find that Alfredo was seriously wounded in a car accident, After Alfredo was examined, the doctors said he may be crippled as a result of injury which he suffered during the accident.

Rigoberto ran to alert the doctors that Don is nodding and moving his body, and that he seems to be coming out of coma. They came to examine him and confirmed that Don has miraculously come back to life.

Alfredo did not know the extent of damage that the accident had done to him, he struggled to stand up and go to fulfill his marriage vows with L.F, but none of the muscle in his legs responded to his ambition; it has not yet dawn on him that he is crippled for now.

It was L.F they were seeking earlier in the day, now it was Alfredo's disappearance that spreads the anxiety fever for them. Where could he be on the day of his wedding? Nobody had inkling that he had an accident on his way to the church, and is now lying critically injured and paralytic in the emergency ward of an hospital, being prepared for surgery.

Nobody understood that Alfredo, just like Consuelo and Jennifer, was fighting destiny and had suffered a shipwreck, at the nick of beating destiny with a marriage that would have been a disaster if he had succeeded. On the other hand, L.F was weeping profusely because she regretted leading Alfredo on, to believe that they could be a happy couple inspite of Carlos Eduardo. Pedro was numb with words, he has no solution to the confusion which he has created and encouraged.

As Vanessa prepare to leave for L.F's wedding, she overheard Consuelo meticulously planning how she would make sure Don did not return alive to the house from the hospital.

Guadalupe and Caesar had a mini fight in her house when Caesar learnt that his father has suddenly re-appeared after 25 years absence. He demanded to know who his father was, but Lupe ordered him to leave her house, because the man he called father never had any input into his life.

As Pedro and Marissa opted to go in search of missing Alfredo, some men brought thge news of his accident to Pedro. L.A arrived at the same time to beg L.F for forgiveness. As usual, she went wild and asked him to get out of her house, but L.A told her that he had come to ask for her forgiveness for one thing. She was surprised and wondered what could have humbled this arrogant man to come to seek her leniency.

Joaquina knew the purpose of L.A's visit and she tried to obstruct him from confessing his paternity to L.F on her wedding day, so that he would not upset the ceremony. Vanessa too knew why L.A was there and she tried to break the news to L.F but her boiling anger against L.A would permit her to even listen to Vanessa's tidings. (I won't call it good tidings because, there is nothing good about the news of discovering that her unknown father of 20 years, that now appears has been her trenchant persecutor and a criminal and murderer).

Carlos opted to carry out the surgery on Alfredo. Jennifer was afraid thinking that Carlos would kill Alfredo, so that he would go back to L.F. ( To the evil person, all things are also evil). She hypocritically 'defended' Alfredo by challenging Carlos for trying to operate on his rival, but Carlos assured her that he wasn't jealous, and his greatest flair in life is to save lives and not kill.

Xochil was weeping profusely before the operation, enviously blaming Luisa Fernanda for the bad luck which she brought to bear on her 'master' on his wedding day. After the surgery, Carlos came out to inform Xochil that the operation was successful. She was happy.

Carlos took her to see Alfredo in his unconscious state. L.F wept profusely by his bed swearing that she would marry him, no matter what the outcome of his accident may be. Carlos swallowed his own agony, as he watched L.F swearing to go into perpetual bondage of moral indebtedness to a man she doesn't love.

Consuelo warned Heriberto that she would send Vanessa packing from the house because of her frequent fraternization with L.F.

Rigo came back home to announce to the shame of Consuelo that Don has recovered from coma and he is improving in health. She also threaten Consuelo to follow her to the hospital to come and confess her evil deeds to the old man or she (Rigo), would say the whole truth to Don at her next visit.

L.A went to Marissa's house to make a last minute appeal to her not to divorce him. Rosario could not tolerate this evil man in the house, she told him that Marissa has gone to a wedding and he could not be allowed to stay within the premises of the mansion. So, L.A went to wait at the gate, outside. When Marissa came she accused him of behaving irresponsibly by fighting and kicking Pedro out of jealousy.

Rosario later pleaded with Marissa to reconsider the undying love between Carlos and Luisa Fernanda, by withdrawing her opposition to their love and happiness.

Jenny told Carol about the Alfredo's accident, and the possibility of being a cripple in the leg for a long time.

He was surprised because he never saw Xochil as anything to him other than his housemaid.

Marissa realized that Medicine was a great passion for Carlos and that she was unnecessarily forcing him to become a banker by her will. She took decision that she would assume the Presidency of the bank once again, now that she is near full recovery. Jenny warned L.A to quickly do something that would make Marissa come back to him, because Marissa had confess to her that she was deeply in love with the common gardener, Pedro.

He was happy for her, at least anybody apart from that gigolo, L.A is better. He embraced her and wished her a sweet relationship with Pedro. Marissa also told him to henceforth face his passion which was medical practice, and not banking. She told him she would resume the presidency, now that she has recovered from her illness.

Meanwhile, Carlos decided to pay for the new apartment which Jenny brought to him, and began to to move into it, to live with Jenny.

Consuelo told Rigo to excuse her as she wanted to confess privately to Don. After Rigo left, she confessed only about how she bought Pedro's mortgage to punish Luicito and how she later pardoned Luicito and resold the mortgage back to Pedro. She never mentioned anything about fabricated Will, Amelia or Don's granddaughter, Luisa Fernanda. When Rigo returned and asked her if she had confessed all her evil deeds, she said yes, but was evasive about the content of her deceptive and misleading confession.

L.F entered the ward to see Don, she was so happy that Don has recovered. Don told her what Rigo told him that brought him back to life. He said he could not afford to go to the grave knowing she was committing the greatest mistake of her life, by not marrying Carlos but Alfredo.

L.A called Consuelo to meet him urgently at an hotel downtown. When Consuelo arrived, he begged her to help him by convincing L.F to come and meet with him at the hotel for reconciliation. Consuelo agreed to run the errand on one condition, that is, L.A would never mention about inheritance to L.F, when she comes for the reconciliation. He agreed. Consuelo then put in a call through to L.F.

Don Fernando, now sober and sane, suddenly discovers that his will did not reflect his desires. He thought L.A did not capture his desire well. He did not know that it was the fabricated will which Consuelo made him to sign in the days of his amnesia. Since he saw his signature on it, he thought L.A was the one who did not capture his desires well on the Will. So, he decided to write another will, He told Marissa's lawyer Mujica to write him a new will that would absolutely capture his desires.

Ordonez was in the company of Lupe, they were gisting about how L.A intended to crookedly corner Marissa with false case of adultery. Caesar stumbled on them in relaxed and affectionate posture. Ordonez siezed the opportunity to announce to Caesar that he was in love with Lupe, and would want his endorsement. He gave them express acceptance and even told Ordonez that he has confidence in him, that his mom would be well cared for in their marriage.

Lucero took Armando to L.F's house but they did not meet her at home. L.F had gone to visit Carlos in the hospital. She told him her encounter with L.A and Consuelo who confirmed to her that L.A was father. Carlos warned her not to believe those two crooks, that they might be setting a trap for her. L.F re-assured him that that their claim was true, because Pedro and Joaquina confirmed it. She warned him not to tell Marissa, because it would affect her emotionally. He agreed with her. It was so touching, they embraced each other, again and again, they were naturally relaxed in each other's company. So, they went to the restaurant to eat.

Xochil was monitoringthem and saw how radiant and happy L.F was, in the company of Carlos at the restaurant. Xochil went to tell Alfredo that L.F was deceiving him, because she saw her in a happy mood with Carlos eating at the restaurant. Alfredo told her that he was not surprised, because, when he put the question of marriage to L.F, she was evasive and avoided to answer him.

L.F and C.E later went to her house to see their son, Pedrito. Carlos renewed his desire to buy a new house for his son, L.F was happy and accepted his offer. Jenny who also has been monitoring their movements knocked and entered L.F's house to surprise them.

Consuelo told her husband that L.A has announced to L.A that he was her father. Heriberto was uncomfortable because the noose is getting tighter, and he told her that their manipulative days are numbered.

After Caesar left, as Ordonez and Lupe were about to seal their relationship with a kiss, Reuben, Caesar's father, knocked and entered the house.

Reuben had come to protest to Lupe for allowing his son to be doing menial jobs like driver and gardener for Marissa. Ordonez used the opportunity to tell him that he and Lupe would be going to the altar to sign the dotted lines soon. He also advised Reuben in strong terms to stop stirring up trouble between Lupe and her son. Before Reuben left, he begged Lupe to let Caesar come to see him, that he would give him a more dignified job with better income and prospects.

Marissa was sad because L.A refused to sign the divorce papers. She informed Pedro of possible delay to their marriage plans. She told him how L.A planned to stir up an adultery scandal in the press, in order to smear her reputation, and cause the Board of Directors of the Metropolitan Bank, to remove her as the president. She told him that L.A is prepared to fight dirty, because he was jealous of Pedro.

Jenny, having heard Carlos plan to buy a new house for Pedrito, mocked him by proposing that he should divide his newest property into 4 and give Pedrito one portion, because he would not be the only child, as she would give him 3 children too, after marriage. She told Carlos to quickly come and impregnate her so that, she too can give him a son to play with, and would not have to be running after Pedrito again. She said all this just to taunt L.F, and true to her expectation, L.F was angry and insolent, she was not happy with Jenny's interruption of their get-together.

L.A came to visit L.F again to ask for her forgiveness. She sharply interjected that she had grown up knowing only one father, and that father is Pedro. saying, she has nothing to do with him, even though she has forgiven him.

Dr. Serrano counseled Carlos to recommend for Alfredo to travel to La Paz for physiotherapy treatment for his palsied limbs, because that is what he would need for the next few months for proper rehabilitation of the use of his limbs. After the message was passed to Alfredo, he looked Carlos in the eyes and asked him if he had been spending nights together with his fiancee because he heard reports that they were eating around restaurants together. Carlos smiled and told him not to break his head about L.F, since what he (Alfredo), wanted from her is marriage, Carlos assured him that L.F would keep her vows to him and marry him. He however assured him that, it would not stop L.F loving him (Carlos). Alfredo was jealous.

Foundation for another tragedy was being laid as L.F foolishly embraced and accepted Armando as her half brother when Vanessa brought him and introduced him to her. She was troubled in the spirit by this mysterious association, but kept an outward fraternal friendliness with this strange half brother, which was nothing but a criminal accomplice of a criminal father. [If L.F rejected L.A, her father, why must she embrace Armando, L.A's criminal accomplice, it is a recipe for another disaster].

Marissa accused Jenny of withholding information from her about L.A's second child and daughter. She told her that she knew because Carol told both Carlos and her together at the same time.

Heriberto slumped at the Iron and Steel factory and was rushed to the hospital. Consuela finally accepted to follow the advice of Heriberto by going to L.F's house to inform her that she was her Aunt. The game is up!

Snippets 119
L.A meant business; he has embarked on an orchestrated smear campaign of blackmail and calumny against Marissa. When Pedro came to beg him to desist, he told him that he won't stop until Marissa is completely disgraced publicly or Pedro drops his ambition to marry her. Pedro was so soft; he doesn't want any harm to come to Marissa, so he broke off his relationship with her because of L.A's blackmail.

Just as Consuelo opened her mouth to reveal the blood ties between L.F and her, an emergency call interrupted her, telling her that her husband had slumped and has been rushed to the hospital. Immediately she and L.F rushed to the hospital to see Heriberto. They met Don there. Don invited L.F to a chat and over a cup of coffee, he strongly insisted that she must not marry Alfredo but tie the nuptial knots with Carlos.

After Carlos had examined and revived Heriberto, he found that he had brain tumor and may not live longer.

Caesar considered the offer of a better and dignified job by his Dad.

Snippets 120
It was the season of blackmails, as L.A attacked Marissa at a press conference, where he questioned her moral standing as an 'adulterer' to lead a bank, so was Alfredo also blackmailing L.F that she must compulsorily escort him to La Paz, for the physio-therapeutic rehabilitation of his limbs. L.F was initially reluctant to follow him, but he compromised her by demanding of her to stand by her vows to stay by him through thick and thin. Alfredo was mortally afraid that before he comes back from La Paz in few months time, Carlos may have hijacked and marry L.F.

The evil workers began to change and switch sides as the shifting sands of their hope began to sink. Carolina advised her boyfriend, Armando to get closer to L.F and be friendlier with her. She told him to do this discretely without the knowledge of Jennifer who hates L.F. [This is the same girl who taunted and mocked L.F as a poor gardener's daughter in the past].

Carlos noticed that Don has a partially paralyzed hand too, and he recommended for him to travel to La Paz for physio too. The old man agreed and told him to go ahead with the arrangements. L.F came to announce to Carlos that she had to escort Alfredo to La Paz for his medical treatment there. Carlos was saddened, much as he tried, he could not stop L.F from following her fiance to La Paz.

Consuelo swung ferociously against Virginia, her husband's mistress and secretary when she came to visit Heriberto at the hospital. She really embarrased her. it was time to pay back, since Roberto was in no condition to defend her now.

Rigoberto suspected that Consuelo had not fully confessed to Don, because, Don has not begun to see L.F as Amelia's daughter or his granddaughter. So, she called L.F aside, to tell her the missing gaps, just as she was about to open her mouth, to reveal her relationship to Don, via Amelia, Vanessa arrived at the hospital, and interrupted them. She asked if it was true that her dad was on admission. Consuelo took over by telling her that her dad her brain cancer and would soon die as revealed by the doctors. When Vanessa asked that Consuelo arrange for her father to be treated abroad, her plead fell on deaf ears.

Heriberto called and begged Don Fernando to take good care of his daughter. This was the last wish of a dying man. It was so emotional and pitiful

Ordonez advised Marissa not to swallow L.A's bait by personalizing her response to L.A's public attack. He told her that The bank and Board of directors would defend her legally and publicly against L.A.

Snippets 121
Carlos Eduardo, Mujica and other lawyers sought ways to deflate L.A's balloon of blackmail by suggestive moves to get Andreina to testify against him over his attempted murder of Marissa Gomez. Carlos also suggested that the buried case of attempted homicide, when L.A pointed a gun at him should be unearthed.

Xochil indicted Alfredo for lowering his self-esteem by begging and blackmailing L.F to escort him to La Paz.

When Armando questioned the dirty method of blackmail that his father, L.A was using in order to make Marissa come back to him, L.A told Armando that he is as much his accomplice in the crime. He turned around to blackmail his son too, instructing him that he should help him to persuade L.F to accept him as her father, otherwise, he would sink Armando.

Carlos reassured Vanessa that he would save her father's life. Consuelo's anxiety heightened and worsened when Heriberto was speaking with Don, she thought that Heriberto would expose all their joint evil deed to Don.

Consuelo was not comfortable with Vanessa staying over the night by Heriberto's bedside. She was afraid that he may reveal all of their joint evil deals to her, so she urged Vanessa to go home to sleep, while she (Consuelo) would stay with him all night. Later in the night, Heriberto pleaded with Consuelo to take good care of his daughter for him, if he dies. She promised and assured him that she would take care of her like as if she were her own daughter.

Joaquina announced that the Convent had transferred her to Africa for missionary work there.

Snippets 122
Lawyer Mujica completed the new Will of Don Fernando and passed it to him. Consuelo took a mental note of where the old man kept the Will. Reuben became jealous of Ordonez, he told Lupe that he wanted her to remarry him. Lupe said NO.

Vanessa came to the hospital the next day to warn her father to tell Don Fernando the whole truth about Amelia and her daughter, so that Consuelo would not twist the story in his absence.

L.A has become the whipping boy of the Pedro and Carlos. When they read all the fabrications of L.A in the newspapers about Marissa being a cheat and adulterer. They went wild and went to meet L.A at his hotel, Pedro beat him into a pulp. L.A instructed Solozarno to shoot and kill Pedro in retaliation for the beating he received from him. Carlos blocked and and prevented Solozarno from fulfilling L.A's wishes.

The press coverage of the adultery scandal was sensational, as became the hottest gist in town. When Armando and Carol told Jenny about it, she was happy and made a mockery of the disgrace of her "confidant and friend"- Marissa Gomez. For her, it was another indirect blow against Luisa Fernanda- her obsession. Journalists and T.V presenters invited Marissa to grant interviews to defend herself or clear the air over the allegations of adultery by L.A, she refused to grant any interview to any media.

L.F began to search for Pedro, and was told that Pedro had gone to fight L.A in his hotel, so, she ran there and found her father and Carlos in a brawl with L.A and Solozarno. L.A began to curse and denigrate Pedro and Carlos. L.F could not stand the two people in her life whom she loved to be so insulted, she marched on L.A and, GBHOA!!! heavy slaps rained down on L.A from Luisa Fernanda, his biological daughter. She told him how shameless and ungrateful he was, for treating the man (Pedro), that raised her up for twenty years, went he abandoned Amelia, with disdain.









The adultery scandal began to take its toll, the judge over the case of Salvador changed his mind when reading of how Pedro and Marissa were irresponsible adulterers, as alleged by L.A in all the newspapers.

Leopoldo negotiated with Mujica that he would testify of all the evils L.A did against Marissa in exchange for his freedom and pardon on the other case attempted murder of L.A. Mujica passed this information to Ordonez and also the fact that he has passed the new Will to Don.

Consuelo stole the newest Will of Don Fernando, and went to hide it in Heriberto's drawer in the factory. Virginia saw her and challenged her on what she was doing there, Consuelo sent her out of the office. Don Fernando appointed Consuelo as the acting President of the Iron and Steel company, in the absence of Heriberto. When Don came to tell Heriberto in the hospital, that he has appointed Consuelo as the new President of the Steel company, he was alarmed, knowing the danger that his wife represent to the old man's fortune, he began immediately to confess to Don Fernando that Don has a granddaughter whom he knows and is alive, his health grew worse, his voice grew faint,

Caesar told Clarita that he wanted a career switch from driver to a better job, as suggested by his run-away father, Reuben. Clarita accused him of disloyalty and that he wanted to jump ship because of the current travail they were going through.

Snippets 123
Seeing his receding strength, doctors rushed Heriberto for the first X-Ray session, so he was unable to complete his confession to Don Fernando. But what Heriberto said was enough to stir up the curiousity of Don. So, he went to challenge "Concealer" Consuela, (as one of our revered 'gardeners' from Kano, Nigeria, would call her), what the matter was, as per his granddaughter.

Jennifer de la Mocker, came visiting Marissa to show hypocritical solidarity with her. She even suggested that Marissa should agreed to organise a counter-press conference to expose L.a too. Marissa foolishly agreed, thinking, her 'friend' was helping her.

Heriberto agreed to the surgery to remove the cancerous tumor from his brain. He died during the surgical operation led by Carlos.

Pedro reported back to Marissa on how he beat L.A to a pulp when he read in the papers how L.A discredited her. Marissa felt bad by the scuffle and also reminded him that he had terminated their relationship because of the negative publicity, why was he still fighting on her behalf.

L.F came to tell Alfredo that she was not going to follow him to La Paz. Alfredo countered by accusing her of breaking her vows to always stand by him, the way he stood by her when she was in jail. Xochil went to one corner to weep because, Alfredo did not show any affection to the lavish expression of her love for him, but was rather begging and running after L.F that didn't love him.

Consuelo told L.A that she had stolen the new Will of Don, prepared by Mujica. L.A asked her to show it to him, so he can study it.

Snippets 124
Being, the first time that a patient would die in his hands during surgical operation, Carlos felt very bad and even took responsibility for his death. Vanessa a double orphan became most vulnerable, for the first time in her life. Consuelo pretentiously slumped to the ground upon learning of Heriberto's death. Don Fernando handled the coordination of the burial ceremony for Heriberto. The weakest of all the schemers in this telenovela dies, 3 more to go, they are chronic evil agents and hardened wicked souls. You know them, don't you?

Upon learning that Leopoldo would testified against him for exchange for his pardon and freedom. L.A was paranoid, he signalled that his hatchet man, Solozarno should swing into action with PLAN "B" to make sure Leopoldo dies before arriving at the witness box.

Alfredo threatened Dr. Serrano that he would rather remain a cripple and refuse to go for physio treatment in La Paz, if his fiancee refuse to follow and be with him there for the duration of his stay in La Paz.

Jennifer de la Mocker was mocked too. She went to the hospital to alert Carlos by lying that that his mother has organized a press conference, (of which Jenny herself was architect and master planner), to counter L.A. When she arrived, Consuelo told her that Carlos is mourning and grieving in his office because of the loss of Heriberto and that L.F was in the office with him, consoling him. She went into a rage at the mention of Luisa Fernanda's name. She stormed Carlos' office and was astonished to see both of them (L.F and C.E), in an emotionally charged kissing session. She screamed and shouted her frustration at the two, insulting L.F, calling her unprintable names. Carlos stopped her in her tracks, warning her never to insult L.F again.

It was Heriberto's funeral and all present were truly mournful, the only secretly happy person was Consuelo, whose vile secret were carried to the beyond by Heriberto. Jenny arrived at the burial in the company of Carlos, she secretly went to where L.F was standing, without being seen by anybody, she landed Luisa Fernanda a big whopping slap on the face, saying that was for kissing her fiance.

Leopoldo witheld his testimony against L.A against L.A because he had not been pardoned or free as he proposed to Mujica

Snippets 125
After the hot slap in the face, L.F decided to abandon further struggles with her arc rival, Jenny, for the love of Carlos Eduardo. When later Carlos came to visit her, she told him how Jennifer de la fighter humiliated her with a slap during Heriberto's funeral. She told him never to come around looking for her any more because she doesn't want further trouble with his pugilist fiancee.

After Heriberto's funeral, Don went to ask Consuelo to explain the details of the confession of Heriberto to him about his dead daughter and his living granddaughter. Consuelo masterly hid under tearful streams of pain, and pretended to be too consumed by the loss of her husband to answer the query of Don. But the old man would not rest; He went to Rigo to ask the same question.

L.A received court summons to appear and defend himself against the allegation of attempted murder of Marissa.

Dr. Serrano told Alfredo how it is impossible for him to force his fiancee to escort him to La Paz. Desperate Alfredo sent for Pedro and arm-twisted him to compel his daughter to escort him to La Paz for the duration of his stay there. Pedro, true to type, mandated and morally cornered L.F, to agreeing to escort Alfredo to La Paz. Case closed! Courrrrrttttttt!!!!

Marissa seems to have woken up from the threshold of Jenny's deception. She invited only one journalist into her office and garnted an exclusive interview of her own version of L.A's ridiculous allegations. When Jenny returned to the Press center, the gamut of eager journalists whom she had invited for her 'show of shame' almost tore her to pieces demanding from her to produce Marissa, as she had promised them, when she was inviting them for the press conference. Marissa turned down all her pleadings to show up at the press conference. Jenny had to profusely apologize to all the press corps, for her inability to produce Marissa for the press conference. She was thoroughly embarrassed.

The parents of Salvador finally agreed to voluntarily give him away in adoption to Pedro and the judge had no option than to ratify their decision.

Ordonez and Lupe publicly announced their forthcoming wedding ceremony.

Snippets 126
Carlos was furious to learn that Jenny slapped L.F, he went to scold and tongue-lashed her for her gutter behavior. Jenny was depressed by this obvious partisanship of Carlos. She concluded that the two lovers were getting back together in reconciliation. She admitted her loss in the battle for Carlos' love. She decided to commit suicide and swallowed all the pills from a bottle of sleeping pills and fell into the bath tub.

Alfredo had a running battle with L.F before he could finally convince her to escort him to La Paz for the trip. He apologized to her for forcing her against her will to escort him on the trip.

Leopoldo appeared in court, after being thoroughly beaten by two thugs hired by Solozarno to kill him. He gave useful evidence against L.A.

Pedro threw a small party to celebrate the victory over the legal adoption of Salvador and also to welcome him officially into his family as a new member.

Vanessa came to her father's office to pack his things; She tried unsuccessfully to break open the metal box where Heriberto keeps vital documents. She suspects that Don's Will may be hidden there. One of the factory workers came to report to Consuelo that Vanessa was trying to break the safe. Consuelo made up her mind there and then, to get rid of Vanessa, who symbolized the new threat to her evil hegemony. She could not help but noticed how Don Fernando pampered Vanessa throughout the burial ceremony of Heriberto. She dreaded a scenario, where Don may decide to transfer his fortune to Vanessa in the absence of his real granddaughter.

Rigo escorted Don to the hospital for medical checkup. The doctor recommended and referred Don to La Paz, for physio treatment of Don's trembling hand. Consuelo refused to heed Rigo's warning to confess to Don, she held on to the last straw of evil hope that Don could drop dead any moment from now, particularly now, that she has assumed the presidency of the Iron and Steel company.

A dying Jennifer de la Suicide, was discovered in the bathroom by Carol and rushed to the emergency ward of Carlos' hospital where her bowel was flushed of all pills she had swallowed. After her recovery and stability, later in the evening, Carlos asked her why she choose a senseless option of ending her life. She fired back that only over her dead body would he marry Luisa Fernanda. This suicide attempt which became a big press issue as the media published it made Carlos to blame himself for putting two women who loved him dearly into so much torment.

Consuelo was happy with the proposed trip to La Paz by Don for physio treatment, she agreed and encouraged Don to go. The old man initially did not want to travel out to La Paz, but Consuelo had to use all the tricks in her evil bag to make him agree. She had many evil schemes that would have to materialize fruitfully, only with the absence of Don from the scene.

Alfredo has suddenly realize his maniacal obsession with L.F escorting him for medical treatment in La Paz. He regretted his manipulative pressure that made her agree to escort him. as soon as the news of Jenny's suicide got to Alfredo, he jumped into wild conclusions that it must have been as a result of C.E and L.F having fully reconciled. He became agitated and wanted to go and visit Jennifer at the hospital

Vanessa advised L.F not to miss her opportunity of happiness by resigning from fighting for her love for Carlos Eduardo. She advised her not to go ahead with her plans to marry Alfredo.

L.A, once again unleashed a media war on Marissa and Carlos over the attempted suicide of Jenny. He told the press that they were a family that injure and maim their loved ones, but turn around to accuse others of attempted murder.

Snippets 128
Rosario had to deploy her motherly wisdom to get Carlos out of self-depression and self-guilt. She told him to reject being victim of Jenny's suicidal madness. Carlos recovered and rose up to address Jennifer, telling her that her case needs urgent psychiatric intervention, just like Pedro when he attempted suicide some 3 years ago.

Carol also advised her to look for another man who would love her, because her happiness is not tied and cannot be tied to a man who does not love her. When Armando broke the news of Jenny's suicidal attempt to L.F, this good-natured girl visited, to sympathize with her at the hospital. But the predictable results are, insults and abuses rained on her by a supposedly recuperating Jenny.

Alfredo requested Xochil to carry him to Jenny's ward. On getting there, Jenny accused him of letting loose his fiancee to resume intimate relationship with Carlos Eduardo. She told him the details of how she caught both of them is passionate kissing session in Carlos office. Alfredo went straight to L.F's house to challenge her on the illicit affair, she re-ignited with Carlos. She denied the allegation, perhaps to avoid another possible suicide by Alfredo on her neck.

As L.A appeared in court again, the judge decided that there were few evidences to prove beyond reasonable doubt that L.A actually wanted to kill Marissa. The case was dismissed without cost. Immediately Ordonez applied to subpoena Andreina as witness for a fresh case against L.A. The L.A camp burst into joyful celebration and L.A began to plan Kill Andreina, if she should return to Mexico to testify against him.

Carlos Eduardo re-assured L.F that she should give him time to let Jenny be discharged from the hospital before he breaks his engagement with her. He also told her to do same at the same time with respect to Alfredo, so both of them can go ahead and marry

Good news! Clarita is pregnant, but also had appendicitis. Consuelo shoved Vanessa out of the house, as soon as Don travelled to La Paz with Rigo. Vanessa had suspected that Consuelo urged Don to travel out, so that she could open the safe of Heriberto in his absence. Vanessa summoned courage to ask her for the keys to her father's safe.

That was what filled Vanessa's cup. Consuelo told her the history of how her father was nobody but a common factory worker promoted to vice president of the company. She told her that her father was Mr. "Nobody" who came with nothing, and so, had nothing to claim as his belongings. She asked her to pack her luggage and disappear from her father's property.

L.F confessed to Carlos how she lacked the moral courage to tell Alfredo the she could no longer marry him. She wept because of the moral burden. Alfredo on the other hand went to tell Pedro that his daughter has been going behind his back to renew romance with Carlos. He bitterly expressed his fear that L.F was looking for excuse to back out of the La Paz trip and break her engagement with him. Pedro calmed him down, assuring him that he would not support any move by his daughter to renew romance with Carlos.

While on hospital bed, Jennifer discharged herself against Carlos medical advise, because, she just won another big modelling contract with another advertising agency.

Xochil was afraid that L.F may cause a last minute upset for Alfredo, so, she insisted on accompanying Alfredo to La Paz. Alfredo agreed with her.

Carlos Eduardo too became wiser, and decided to shift the emotional battle field to La Paz. He advised his mom to get out of negative publicity and get well, by going to La Paz for physio treatment too, so that she would no longer be limping while walking. He assured her that she would have good company there because Don Fernando is already therer receiving treatment too.

After much pleading by Vanessa that fell on Consuelo's deaf ears, she packed and went to live with L.F. It was a classic case of "use and dump", Consuela used her to put L.F in jail, now she duped and dumped her unto the streets. Life's irony now played itself out, as L.F rescued Vanessa, her former persecutor and bosom friend, to put a roof over her head when Consuelo dumped her.

Vanessa's fiance was very angry to discover the intrigue of Consuela against her. Sop, he went to the iron and steel company to confront and insult Consuelo for maltreating his wife-to-be, in the absence pf Don and after the death of her father, Heriberto.

Alfredo, L.F and Xochil proceeded to La Paz. Carlos too packed his luggage and went with his mom to La Paz, Then , the encounter! L.F was pleasantly surprised to see Carlos at the port; Alfredo was enraged to see him there. He must have nick-named Carlos as a 'stubborn pursuer', LOL.

Carlos explained to L.F that he had brought his mom for physio-therapeutic treatment for her legs. He also told her he came to make sure that Alfredo does not persecute her or force her against her will to do whatever she does not like to do.

Marissa realized too late that her trip to La Paz was an emotional coup de tat by Carlos against his arc-rival, Alfredo. When she saw L.F, she knew that trouble was being brewed for fermentation like alcohol, by her son. Pedro, after some few days also, headed for La Paz, to surprise his wife-to-be with solidarity.

Rubén, Lupe's run-away husband, stumbled on his teenage friend, Luis Alejandro Montero, and was happy to rescue him from his travails with Marissa, by appointing him as the new legal Adviser to his company. Birds of the smae feather floc together. L.A impregnated Amelia and absconded, Rubén also impregnated Lupe and took flight, 2 decades later, both now desperately want to identify what with what they had ran from, Rubén wanted to re-marry Lupe, and seeking to know and father his fatherless son, Caesar; L.A wanted to be a late-hour or, is it late-comer father to L.F, and of course partakes in her inheritance from her grandfather, life is an irony.
