Mary turned to look at him. “You are even more selfish than I thought. But guess what? I am not my father.” Mary spoke with pain in her heart and shut the door, leaving Antonio alone to ponder on his thoughts and nurse his wounded soul.“What have I done to myself?” Antonio cried his eyes out. Not quite long after the heated confrontation that existed between them, a call came in.With a move too fast, Antonio answered the phone without waiting to confirm who was calling. “Hello, ALEJANDRO. How did it go with Hilton? Has he agreed to come with you to the hospital?” Antonio could swear that it was ALEJANDRO on the phone. That was the only call he wanted to pick. “Dad, what hospital are you talking about?” A masculine voice spoke over the phone that didn't sound like ALEJANDRO! Antonio got confused even more. It's more like Mary never left for real. He took the phone off his ear to glance at the name that popped up on his screen. It became clear to him that he had been on the

“I am not going to ask you this question for the second time, Mary.What in heaven's name are you doing here? I don't recall inviting you over.” Antonio was furious at Mary. He was yet to understand why she had to return. To make it worse, she has refused to speak, making it more difficult for Antonio to comprehend. “Before you condemn me to death, can I at least be seated?" She begged to be heard. Deep down, she knows she's the last person Antonio would want to set his eyes on at the moment. She also promised not to waste Antonio's time by dragging words like the previous time. A note of direct speech is what she aimed for. Antonio saw Mary in a different kind of mood that hadn't been witnessed before.He's convinced that she's going to make sense after the previous disastrous performance that nearly made him call the cops on her. “You have your moment with me," Antonio sighed while granting Mary's wish to speak. He, however, warned her not to do something else stupid, o

“I thought you wanted to say something important. I can't believe you dragged me into suspense just to say trash." You do expect me to waste my time telling you a story about my past.” Antonio flared up. “I think you've overstayed your welcome. Now, I want you to leave, or else I will be forced to call the doctor to have you kicked out.” He puts more effort into ensuring that Mary leaves immediately. His rage was supposed to invoke the spirit of fear in Mary. Rather, it turned out to be a complete waste of time. Mary still proved to be an unstoppable force that can't be moved by threat. She looked him in the eyes. “I may not be the only one to be sent outside. I could literally ask my dad to abolish the mission." She laughed mischievously and went back to get seated even without being asked. The laughter was enough to send pain to Antonio's already shattered heart.He gnashed his teeth and prepared his fist to attack Mary regardless of his health. The doctor categorically war

His stressed face had become fresh and spotless. He made a move to leave, but Alejandro didn't. He stood there watching Hilton like a dummy.“I said let's go. What are you still waiting for?” Hilton repeated his utterances. He already assumed that Alejandro didn't hear him the first time. “Like this?” he pointed at Hilton's outfit. Hilton fumed. His father hadn't opposed his choice of outfit before. This time, Alejandro was smart enough to avoid it.He walked away. “You're going to drive behind me,” he decided. “No, I'm not. We drive in my car." Hilton decided. He was damn serious about it, even though he was smiling. The insult was too much for Alejandro. He didn't even know how to react to it. That was the only moment he ever remembered that he was poor. He tried to speak, but the words refused to come out. His lips suddenly became too big to move sideways. He endured the insult and went to sit at the front next to Hilton. “What do you think you're doing?” Hilton que

"Oh, so it's you again?” Alejandro asked, after seeing Hilton at the doorstep. Now he knows the reason for Mary's quietness. “You still had the guts to show up here after everything that happened? Are you that cruel?” he sparked outrageously. He never wanted to set his eyes on Hilton ever again. He also wishes that Antonio will send Hilton away. “Is my dad inside? I want to see him,” Hilton requested with pride. He was less concerned about Alejandro's rage. Despite the trauma he caused everyone, he refused to apologize to Alejandro. He stood on his ground like a perfectionist. “No, you're not seeing your father. I suggest you leave immediately and never return,” Aljeandro replied and shut the door immediately. He couldn't even wait for Hilton to explain. From outside, Hilton laughed. “What the heck was the old man thinking? I guess I should leave.“Dad, what did you just do? Why did you have to shut the door against him like that? In my honest opinion, that wasn't fair.” M
