Javier Santamarina and his daughter could not approach Amaranta Cid with Izan Marsans around her.
JAVIER was very upset. He has to investigate and ask. Who exactly was this guy?
Why was he so nosy?
Couldn't he just mind his own business?
"Dad, who is that man with Sister Amaranta? Is she his boyfriend?"
"I don't know either."
—"If my father had no idea who he was, what should he do?" Ana wondered.
She should stay by Amaranta's side because only that poor little town girl knew who that attractive man was.
That day, when they met in the hospital room, she instantly fell in love with him. It was love at first sight. Ana continued dreaming about him. It was a shame that they only knew each other for such a short time. She couldn't remember clearly what she looked like. Her heart was warm. That wonderful feeling made her long for him every waking day.
She liked him a lot.
She wanted to be close to him.
She wanted to be with him today, tomorrow, every day of her life.
Plus, she wanted to be a part of his life.
Then, one day, she would realize that, compared to the beggar Amaranta, who grew up in a small town, she suited him better, since she was from a rich family.
"I thought he was my Sister Amaranta's boyfriend. He is so handsome! The sister has good taste," commented Ana Santamarina.
Javier Santamarina immediately reprimanded her when she heard that. "He is not Amaranta's boyfriend, and he cannot be Amaranta's boyfriend. I will definitely not allow the two of them to be together."
Ana Santamarina tilted her small face up and said worriedly, "Dad, it's obvious that big sister doesn't want to recognize us. If you object to her dates, she will definitely get upset with us and assume that we are intruding on her personal life."
"I'm her father. I'm doing this for her own good."
Javier Santamarina said, and looked at the blooming flowers in the garden.
There weren't many, but they encouraged the people who went there.
Currently, it was spring, and some flowers had not yet bloomed.
The beauty of those flowers would never be compared to that of Amaranta in her memories.
"Ana, have you told your mother about Amaranta?" Javier asked.
Ana held Javier's arm and replied, "Dad, I didn't tell mum. I think you should tell her yourself. It would be better if you did."
Javier's head hurt. She knew what his wife was like. Handling this matter would not be easy.
However, she should not give up on Amaranta. She had to keep Amaranta by her side. He had to fulfil the Young Master's plans, his own life depended on it, as well as the fortune he had amassed thanks to his help over the years.
If her wife did not agree, then he would have to divorce her. This event would not happen unless he had no other choice. — "Ana, do you really like Amaranta? I think that, given her character, you could be at a disadvantage when you get along with her…"
Ana spoke softly: "Dad, I have always wanted a sister."
Amaranta simply, at this moment she was very confused, she has many things to reflect on, around this.
And only her grandmother is her priority right now, and suddenly they showed up.
"Maybe she just doesn't know what to do. She needs some time to get used to this. Let's hope, give her a space, so that she can assimilate that she has a family."
Javier Santamarina was very satisfied with what Ana Santamarina had said. He cleared his throat and said, "Your older sister used to live in a rather secluded place, and she is also quite stubborn. Don't fight her. You don't have to bother with your older sister's affairs for the time being. More importantly, "is that you prepare well for the entrance exams to the Capital University."
"How could I concentrate and prepare for exams at a time like this?" Ana Santamarina thought out loud.
Her eyes, her dreams, and her heart were full of Izan Marsans. She didn't know his name until now, but she was completely sure that if she managed to get Amaranta to her house, that handsome man would do it too.
She didn't know her age. Not only that, but she didn't know anything about him. But he… He was already everything to her. She wanted to be by her side, even though he was with Amaranta at this moment. She could only hope that one day, he would be with her.
"Dad, you don't have to worry about my college entrance exams. As a fine arts student, I have already been guaranteed a place in the capital University a long time ago. What I'm worried about now is the older sister.
She has to take care of grandmother, who is sick, and she still has to prepare for exams. How is she going to pass the exams? Yesterday I heard you say that grandmother's illness is very serious, that even surgery will not guarantee her complete cure. Now that the grandma is sick, Amaranta must be really worried. Dad, what we have to do now is show Grandma Mary how sincere we are.
Grandma will certainly understand that we are Big Sister's only family when she… She passes away… she can do it with peace of mind, because she will know that Amaranta will have a family."
Javier Santamarina also knew it.
She was just worried that, if she forced her hands, she might backfire on him.
"You don't have to worry about this matter. I will talk to them, I promise."
"Dad, do you only want big sister and not me any more? I also hope that you and big sister can also recover as soon as possible."
"Silly girl. Both you and Amaranta are my daughters. I care about you equally. Who said I didn't love you any more?"
"So, dad, since we're here, let's visit grandma in the room."
"Come on".
But why were there guards stationed in the lift lobby?
"We are here to visit a patient."
The guard didn't recognize Javier and Ana Santamarina, so naturally he didn't let them in.
"Have the patient's family pick you up if you want to visit. If no one comes to get you, they will have to leave. "
Ana very naively thought that the beauty of a 16-year-old girl would help her, so she sweetly asked the guard: — "Sir, my grandmother is inside. My dad and I are very worried about her. Could you let us through?"
The tall, strong, evil-faced man responds: - "No. I'm afraid you have to leave," the guard responded firmly.
Ana couldn't convince the two guards. They were so stubborn. She slammed her feet in frustration against the marble floor.
She was so frustrated. Who knew what big shot she was recovering inside her?
They even had bodyguards…
Oh, no. A thought suddenly occurred to Ana Santanderino.
Both the grandmother and Amaranta were from the countryside. How could they stay in a flat where rooms were reserved for such elegant personalities? How did Amaranta get her grandmother to be here? Who was that man?
Ana felt the warmth in her heart. She seemed to see some things she hadn't known before through this mess that was reality.
Ana bit her lips and thought about this question.
The problem was that Amaranta and her grandmother were from a small town. How did they come to know such a big fish? Furthermore, it seemed that Izan Marsans treated Amaranta quite well.
"Dad, what are we going to do now? We came here to visit grandma. We can't leave without seeing her."
Javier Santamarina stood in the lift lobby. He didn't dare force his way in.
"Let's wait a moment."
Ana stood obediently next to her father. The two of them did nothing and just waited quietly in the corner.
Meanwhile, inside the hospital room, Amaranta and Izan couldn't help but sigh when they discovered what the two of them were doing. Meeting such shameless people was scary, it was a nightmare.
They had already said everything they could, but those two refused to listen.
And no one could even scold them.
They could only let them stand there and be a nuisance.
Father and Daughter waited in the lift lobby for almost two hours before Johanna Sáenz arrived with a thermos.
The security guard looked at Johanna suspiciously and stopped her.
It wasn't until Izan Marsans instructed her to let Johanna Sáenz in before she was allowed to pass.
"Why is she allowed to pass and we, who have two out here, aren't?" Ana Santamarina asked sweetly. She did so convincingly, trying to remain calm despite her annoyance.
Ana Santamarina had always worried about appearances, especially in public. Her legs also hurt from standing for so long.
The guard looked at Ana and replied, "Miss, she is the patient's relative. If you two are the patient's family, you can call your relatives and ask them to come here to pick you up. Then we will definitely let you pass."
Dad, I'm tired, and I'm hungry, let's go now, to which Javier Santamarina responded: —"No, I'll call Óscar now. Why don't you go home first?"
Ana couldn't argue with that, and she agreed.
Less than 30 minutes later, Óscar arrived at the hospital. Ana walked towards him the moment she got out of the lift.
"Oscar, I already told dad not to bother you, but he refused to listen."
Óscar greeted Javier Santamarina, then turned to Ana and said: "Silly girl, is there any need to be correct with me? They still won't let you in?
"No… my sister must still hate us. Oscar, what do you think we should do?
Oscar comforted Ana and said softly, "I'll take you to eat something first. Then, you can tell me what happened."
The security guards have already changed shifts, however, Javier Santamarina was still not allowed to enter.
When a person did not have
What to do, his mind often wandered. Images of his youth flashed through his mind. It was easy for someone to remember the past when he was old.
Because the past was so wonderful… it was suffocating, and he longed for it so much.
Johanna entered the room and greeted Grandma Mary with a smile, asking her how she was feeling. The grandmother replied that she was fine and laughed heartily.
"Johanna, we have disturbed you..."
Johanna stood next to Izan Marsans and handed him the amended contract.
"Mr. Marsans, this is the amended contract. Take a look at it and see if there is anything else that needs to be changed."
Izan Marsans took the document and read it thoroughly. He felt quite satisfied after reading it. There were no commonly seen cheating in the contract.
Johanna seemed like a good person.
"There is no problem with the contract."
Izan Marsans handed the contract to Amaranta.
Amaranta took the contract and signed his name on it without hesitation.
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
