Guadalupe Mendoza ever trusting

It was trust that brought Lupe to the point of death.
He trusted Carmelo to a fault. In fact, he almost hated his own son because of the love and trust he had in this boy that was raised in his ranch and now grew up to become his foreman. If he had heeded the warning and advice of all, he would have not lost his memory and become dependent on Carmelo. It was pride that drove him there. Pride on not admitting that he was wrong about Catalina when he observed that she truly loves her son. He was so blind to Carmelo's fault that he called his son and Catalina liars when they reported his indecent behaviour to Catalina to him.
Well the love that Carmelo has for him saved him when Marcelo wanted to end his life close to the river that night he fell and hit his head on the stone. Carmelo is evil but kind of loves him as a father .
ITs that sick love that is still sustaining Lupe in the city. When Lupe started being stubborn and insistence on going out and not locked up, it is Carmelo's love that is saving him. Severally, Marcelo, his accomplice keeps telling himthe way out is kill Lupe. Now Lupe is regaining his memory and this is dangerous to them.
