Her feelings were touched by what she heard. Nadia had always been against marrying Larry. Nadia insisted that Joshua was the one she loved, but because her father was in debt, she was forced to marry Larry.
"Because Larry knows that I still love Joshua... that's why he always threatens me. He says he's going to kill Joshua and me!"
Mang Dencio bowed. "It's my fault, Nadia... if I don't owe them! You won't get this." The regret in Mang Dencio's voice was obvious.
"There's nothing we can do, father... everything has happened. We can't bring back the past!" Nadia said softly.
"Forgive me, son, I am your own parent who stole your happiness. I forced you to marry Larry so that we wouldn't be forced to take our land. I forgot that you and Joshua will suffer..." Nadia's father sat down dejected.
"Dad... I don't know what to do anymore. I'm afraid of Larry!"
"You're not going back to him Nadia... you stay here with us. I'll deal with him when he goes here!"
"I can't, Father...I'll go home too
Hacienda! Nadia refused. "I just came here to visit you and let you know my situation!"
"But why Nadia..." Aling Dolores interjected. This is surprising.
"Larry's thinking is different... he won't do anything when he's drunk. I don't want you guys to feel bad... I don't want anything bad to happen to you guys. Larry's not kidding... they can pay for anyone's life in this town They are powerful Father, Mother!"
Both of Nadia's parents did not move. Because it's right. It is no secret to anyone in the province that Larry's parents can afford to pay no matter how much. Even the life of anyone.
"So as long as I can bear it, I will be with him. I know the moment will come when he will change too... one more time I will force myself to love him so he won't hurt me!" Nadia continued.
