Cards on the table and a change of heart



Tonio was furious at his sister's statement, guessing it was Max's handiwork again. He demanded to know where Max lived; obviously meaning to beat the living daylights out of him! But of course Vicky refused to tell him; she said it was absurd two brothers would fight over a woman who wasn't worth it. Raquel suddenly entered the room and Vicky asked what she was doing back. Tonio explained he'd asked her to come. Vicky warned him if his wife was coming back to the house, she will leave. Tonio replied she wouldn't have to- he and Raquel would simply move into a house of their own. A long awaited good idea

But Vicky didn't like the idea of Tonio and Raquel getting back together and began climbing up the stairs to pack. But Raquel coldly told her to stop; she hadn't come  to reconcile with Tonio or move back  to the house- she only came to straighten things out with him  and then go home to Guadalajara. 
She told Vicky Tonio asked for a divorce which she accepted, then Tonio found out she was pregnant. Max knew about the baby because he was present when the doctor told Daniel. She came to the house  simply to let Tonio know she wasn't coming back, furious he told Rod not to help her with money. 

The couple then moved to the study to thrash things out. Raquel wanted to go ahead with the divorce,  and she wanted no alimony. Tonio refuses. He wanted her home so she could be taken care of, noting what the doctor told him about her frail condition, she could lose their baby.  Raquel pointed out it was her baby and she wasn't prepared to move back in just because she was pregnant. 

Raquel accused him of only wanting her back because of the baby, how come he believed it was his after the things he'd said to her? Tonio said he didn't believe Max's lie abut the baby. Suppose it was Max's baby then, Raquel pointed out. Will he free her?

 Tonio asked her if  the baby was his or not, and she resignedly said he was the father. When asked, Raquel explained why she called the house to get Max's number, she wanted Meche to identify Max as Roberto but got disappointed. She also told him about Julia's visit and the check, which amazed him. 

Ramon entered the study, warmly greeted Raquel and told Tonio he'd had no luck, no one had found the  missing check book, then suggested perhaps Chucho took it. Raquel indignantly objected to that, he would never do that.  Tonio was surprised she would defend him. Raquel insisted that Chucho was a friend of her father's and very loyal to her- he wouldn't steal from Tonio. 

 Tonio  denied her accusation of hiring anyone  and Raquel had to believe it, because of the missing check book. But back to themselves,  Tonio once again reminded her of her poor state of health, if she cared about their baby; she would move back in and get medical help and care. He wasn't prepared to argue with her, she was moving back in,- they will get their own house after a while. Sulkily, she agreed but insisted on returning in the morning.
Vicky asked Ramon if Raquel and her family were returning to the house; Ramon wasn't sure but it looked that way. Vicky went upstairs to pack, followed by Camilla. Andres isn't pleased and tells Claudio he believes Raquel over Max. 

 Tonio came out, holding Raquel's hand and told Andres, Alejandra and Claudio that he and Raquel were giving their marriage another chance, she was moving back  in the morning. 

He handed her purse and they left the house.
