Angela and Salvador bonding

DAY 43

Salvador got home and cleaned off after the accident. Men! he's got a strong and firm body. A body to show off and a body to be proud of. He came out for lunch and Lupe asked why he was at home early and he told her about the accident. He asked why she was moving things out and she responded that they were arranging the place for a bar to be started that evening. While Lupe was arranging the room, a woman owed by Gayetana came for her money. Gayetana came later, and argued on the total sum to be paid because it was much higher than what she had borrowed. Matilda as the woman was called brought out a gun and the screaming attracted Salvador who intervened and promised settling the debt soon. When the woman left, he ordered them to put away those things until a later date and warned Gayetana to be careful as he was not going to applaud her nonsense.
Abigail scolded Angela for proposing to Antonio because in their own days and (in most African countries), the men were the ones proposing and not the other way round. But she defended their actions saying she was sure of her feelings for Antonio and Antonios' for her. She concluded that she would give him up if he does not want to come with her.
Isabel and Andre discussed the planned meeting with Angela's Atorney Carlos and Andre told Isabel about the strained relationship between him and the lawyer which caused the discontinuation of his services with the company. He advised Isabel to convince Angela to drop the lawyer if not they will loose all they had worked and planned for all these years.
As advised, Isabel tried talking Angela out of contracting Carlos to ber her legal representative but she stubbornly refused. Andre was told and and he said he would produce fabricated evidence to discredit Carlos and most of the other directors would side him.
Antonio and Angela took a walk through the bush and sat down to discuss the events that had occured lately in the house and between them. Antonio as usual wanted to hurry home so that the personnel would not gossip about them but Angela said he worried too much and kissed him. Walter came by to inform her that Carlos was around so she left to see the lawyer who fortunately met Andre and all lies were cleared once and for all. Andre was angry and bitter about loosing everything after having cleverly plannrd how to get Donoso's wealth for himself and Isabel. The greedy guy wanted all. On the way home, he started sppeding like a maniac on the loose but Isabel prevented a crash and forced him to stop. Andre said she was hysterical but he was the hysterical one because he was scared of loosing her so he became paranoid but she calmed him. In the morning, Rebecca took breakfast to her and she asked her to marry the rich old man they played card with last night. Isabel had to advice her so that she can have money of her own in case Angela took everything.
Salvador came to work and Isabel teased him about changing her mind but she did not. He went to change and saw Walter so he roughhandled him and warned him to watch his back because he owed him one. Walter was really scared. Salvador left with Angela to talk in the garden. Rebecca came to look for Salvador and Walter rebuked her for still hooking up with a dangerous man like that and warned that the pact between them as partaining to the treasure was off.
Meanwhile, Andre had a serious hangover from the drunkenness that he could not offer a solution to the impending strike to be embarked by the staff if their demands are not met. In fact, he did not care and he passed that to the top management that came to warn him.
From the garden, Angela and Salvador came to the living room to continue their discussion. Angela opened up that her father never liked her and was distanced most of the times but Salvador defended her father. Angela said it was as if her father was the one talking to her and asked him to look at her because his eyes were familiar. Antonio came to the door and was looking at them
