Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

Leopoldo was half convinced after hearing Buena’s comment, “I just have to find the girl you say and Severo will definitely see me? You’re not lying to me, are you?”.

Buena took a sip of her coffee, smiled and said, “Man, believe me, this is a way out, this girl I’m talking about, she had a relationship with Severo Laris seven years ago and Severo Laris is still in contact with her to this day. If you find her, I am sure Severo Laris will be there to see you.”

Leopoldo frowned and remembered, “The girl you mentioned, I think I’ve seen her before, I’ve seen pictures of her at Severo’s house, she always looked familiar, I just couldn’t remember where I’d seen her before!”

“Dude, just give her a chance, even if it doesn’t work it’s still a try, I can’t lie to you…”

Leopold thought that was a good point, “You’re right, I’ll have to give it a try, after all, if Severo sees me, there’s room to negotiate everything.”

“That’s all.”

Leopoldo mused, “But this girl you speak of, where the hell am I going to find her, Imperial is so big I might not find her even if I look for her for a year.”

Buena smiled confidently and said, “Man, of course I’m going to help people all the way. This Paula Rouco, from La Ciudad Santa, I have researched her home address for you, and here is her cell phone number, if she knows you are the father of Severo Laris, she will see you.”

Buena pulls an information sheet out of her purse and hands it to Leopoldo.

Leopoldo smiled and took it in a heartbeat, “It’s really thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn’t have known how to find it.”

“When you find it, ask Severo Laris to come and see you, and he will.”

“Good, good.”

…

Paula Rouco was about to fall asleep when she received a phone call.

Unknown number with unknown attribution.

She hung up once.

Then this number called back.

Paula Rouco frowned slightly, thinking it was a scam call, and hung up again.

The other party vowed not to stop and called back.

Paula Rouco, a bit grumpy, picked up impatiently.

An old but strong voice came on the phone and said, “Hello, is this Paula Rouco?”

Paula Rouco frowned and pursed her lips, “Yo, who are you?”

“I am Severo’s father, oh father of Severo Laris! You are Severo’s girlfriend, aren’t you?”

“… I’m not.”

And then he simply hangs up.

Leopoldo, a bit depressed, looked at the hung up phone and muttered, “Why did he hang up right!”.

Several more knocks followed.

Paula Rouco was so annoyed that she took the phone off the hook, unaware that she was the oldest, and her tone was icy: “If you have a problem, go straight to Severo Laris, with whom I broke up some time ago, and don’t call me again.”

The words fall, break and hang.

To prevent Leopoldo from calling back, Paula Rouco also had the number crossed out.

But Leopoldo is not one to give up so easily. If she doesn’t answer his calls, he will look for her close to home!

Anyway, he has plenty of time now.

…

Leopoldo leaned back on the cot in the small hotel and looked at the information Buena had given him.

The girl in the profile is indescribably familiar.

In the middle of the night, Leopoldo had a nightmare.

Waking up with a jolt from a dream.

He gasped in sweat as he dreamed that the girl he had kidnapped fifteen years earlier had grown into an imp to claim his life.

The lovely girl in the dream suddenly transformed into an imp and ran after him in terror.

Luckily it was a dream.

He had been in prison for many years. He had kidnapped the girl from that rich family in order to pay the loan sharks, and it was also a desperate relationship with those social bosses who lent money to the loan sharks, threatening to cut off his hands if he could not pay them back.

Later he kidnapped the girl, but he did her no harm, and in the end he did not receive a penny, not only did he work for nothing, but he enjoyed a long prison sentence.

Leopoldo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and sighed, “People are poor, they really don’t succeed at anything.”

He glanced over his shoulder and looked at the information again.

The memory of the ten-year-old girl’s small face gradually overlapped with the girl’s appearance in profile.

Leopold’s eyes twitched and he grabbed the information hurriedly, looking closely at the girl’s family.

“The Holy City… The Rouco family… The Rouco family… …”

Leopoldo froze, that girl, the one he had kidnapped fifteen years ago, the daughter of The Rouco family!

…

The next morning, Leopoldo, wearing a black hat and a scarf that covered most of his face, hid near the Rouco family.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

When lunchtime came, there was no trace of the Rouco family.

Leopoldo was so hot in the sun that he wanted to go back to the air conditioning.

Just as he was about to leave, the embossed black door opened and a figure stepped out from inside.

Leopoldo’s eyes lit up, it was the girl!

Paula Rouco went out to buy sanitary napkins at a nearby store, as she had run out at home.

As she reached this side of the boulevard, she suddenly had her mouth and nose covered with a handkerchief.

“Uh-uh-uh…”

The handkerchief was dabbed with the medicine and soon Paula Rouco fainted.

…

MO Group branch, La Ciudad Santa.

Severo Laris had just left the conference room after a high-level meeting.

Salvino rushed over, phone in hand, and said, “Boss, it’s no good, the man following Leopoldo at Imperial says he’s back in La Ciudad Santa. ”

Severo Laris’ eyes sank and his gaze was cold and stern.

Without thinking, he called Paula Rouco, but it rang for a long time before he was picked up.

…

Paula Rouco awoke to find herself in a small hotel with her hands and feet tied to a wicker chair in the small hotel.

She saw the middle-aged man in front of her, making a call from his cell phone.

Leopoldo said, “Severo, it’s me, it’s dad.”

Severo Laris over there, his voice cold to the bone, “What the hell have you done!”

Leopoldo hemmed and hawed, not realizing the gravity of the situation, and simply said, “I didn’t do anything, I was just looking for your girlfriend to talk to, you always don’t see me, I was just looking for your girlfriend!”

Severo Laris said, word for word: “Leopoldo, if you touch a single hair on her head, I’ll make the rest of your life hell!”.

Leopoldo’s back shivered at this grim threat from Severo Laris and he said, “I’m not trying to touch her, she’s your girlfriend, how could I touch her! Come see me right now.”

“Put her on speaker, I want to talk to her!”

Leopoldo: “Okay, okay, okay, okay, I’ll put it on speaker.”

Leopoldo turned on the speaker and said to Paula Rouco, who was tied to a wicker chair, “Girl, say something to my son and tell him I didn’t do anything to you.”

Paula Rouco looked coldly at Leopoldo and said, “Doesn’t kidnapping me count as not doing anything to me?”.

Leopoldo: “… Girl, how you talk! I called you and you didn’t listen to me, I had to kidnap you to make you come!”

“Scoundrel!” Paula Rouco cursed.

Leopoldo wanted to reply, but he was afraid to do something to the girl because Severo Laris was listening on the other end of the phone and he was thinking about Severo Laris’ money.

Severo Laris ordered, “The phone must remain open until I see her, and if you try anything, Leopoldo, you know how many ways I can have you killed.”

“How dare I, I just want you to give me a little alimony! Bring the money and we’ll talk!”

Severo Laris gritted his teeth, his gaze scarlet and furious.
