disastrous breakup

DAY 51

Andre ran the steps up to Isabel’s room and demanded explanation for the break up of the relationship. She said that she did not love him again and wants to be released from a union of suspicion and distrust. Andre wanted to know when she fell out of love with him and she said when he forced her to marry Pedro because she actually was waiting for him to propose. She said her love for him died when he proposed that she married the old man Donoso. Andre’s concern was Pedro’s wealth that was slipping away from him so he had to act urgently since pleading and profession of undying love for Isabel would not solve the problem. He opened the tap in the bath and allowed the water to fill the bath. Andre insisted that no man can love her like he does or make her happy. With Isabel’s insistence on breaking up with him that she cannot stand his sight, made Andre with murder in his eyes dipped her head into the water to drown her. Andre eyes were red with anger and the evil spirit of murder took control of him. He vowed that if he cannot have her then nobody would.
It was Abigail’s knocking that saved Isabel from death. When Andre came out he reminded her that they did not want to be disturbed and the puzzled look on Abigail’s face made him to hurry back inside because he was soaked with water from Isabel’s splashes. Back in the room, he carried her from the side of the bath to the bed. He blackmailed her with revealing all to the authority that they killed Don Pedro except she married him. She eventually accepted but on the condition of no intimacy or no control over her activities.
Antonio went to speak to Gayetana about Pedro. He asked if it was possible for the death to return or to return in the body of someone else. He said it was not coincidence that a man appeared in the house with the same gaze, handwriting of Don Pedro. Gayetana waved it off as nonsense and bedded him farewell. In the evening, she advised Salvador to be discreet about his affairs to avoid suspicions.
In the plant, Andre’s behaviour became worse. He has gone berserk. The workers think the wedding is causing him stress but he had a flashback to Isabel refusal’s to marry him and begging to give him all except her love. Back home, Isabel locked herself in her bedroom and later was shown contemplating suicide with a surgical knife.
Antonio suspicious and full of doubt about Salvador and his real intentions in the house, confronted him. He wanted to know how come he knew so much about them and had a lot in common with the departed Don Pedro Donoso.
