Catalina's hard decision

Sebastian truly loves Catalina but the calamity that has befallen the Mendoza's family since meeting and falling in love with her is bringing this feeling into questions. Also the hawks that surround him in the guise of friends are making him doubt his feelings for Catalina and even her sincere love for him. With a friend like Jessica, one does not need an enemy. Why disinherit a friend just to get back at a foe? I still find this kind of love hard to believe.
After Adela's tutorials on being a refined gentleman, she advised Carmelo to give the ranch back to Sebastian so that Sebastian can leave the penthouse and Catalina for him. They both went back to the penthouse to throw Sebastian out but met a full house. Jessica cautioned Carmelo that the fact that Petra switched the babies does not mean he is more Lupe's son than Sebastian so he should not be mean. While leaving Carmelo said everything is his and even Catalina would soon be his wife. Catalina told him in front of everyone that she will never be his. Sebastian was so happy that he turned her around to confirm and probably kiss her when Jessica dragged him away for a walk. Jessica confesses to Martina that she loves Sebastian and will do everything as a friend to help him. She said she will not pressure him like Emilia but will wait patiently for him to get over Catalina. She has a long wait ahead of her.
Witnessing the display of affection between Catalina and Sebastian, Jessica decides to use that undying love to blackmail Catalina.
Jessica finally got Catalina to agree to see Carmelo and convince him to retun the ranch to Sebastian and Martina the true children of Lupe and Maltilda Mendoza. Before talking to Catalina, she had spoken to Carmelo and advised Carmelo to accept Adela suggestion of returning the ranch to Sebastian in order to get Catalina. She told him that Catalina is still in love with Sebastian and will do anything to get him back though they are divorced. Carmelo had his doubt but Jessica was sure she can convince Catalina because she has witnessed the love play and undercurrent between the two lovers in the penthouse. Catalina accepts to go see Carmelo but first went to Sebastian's room and he could not hold back than to express his love for her. They temporarily forgot they are divorced and gave in to their feelings for each other. As usual, their happiness was shortlived with foes masquerading like friends intruding and ending it.
Alicia, her true friend advised against going to see Carmelo for whatever reason so that she does not fall into his trap but she was determined to go in order to get the ranch and give it back to Sebastian, her love.
