GOOD RIDDANCE!!!

Isabella got to the house as the family are gathered together for a meeting. Lorenzo arrived soon after, much to Alex's annoyance; but Lorenzo said he & Isabella had come for a business meeting with Sylvia, Nattie & Conan regarding the project. The only one missing in the room is Sylvia, who was yet to show up. Alex announced that he & Sylvia were flying to Santo Domingo in the morning for an intimate wedding. The only person who cheered at his news was Isabella, who applauded and congratulated him. However, Sylvia finally showed up, the paper Nattie had given her still in her hand, and a strange look on her pale face.
' Not so fast, Isabella- we are NOT going anywhere!' She said, looking as if she was about to explode.
Very surprised, Alex asked her why, hadn't she given her word?
'Not after seeing this!' holding out the paper, and tells everyone in the room that all the money that had been spending wasn't his savings, but payment from that woman!(pointing at Isabella)
Alex furiously asked where she'd got all that madness from.
Sylvia yelled at him, the paper in her hand is his financial information, which concides with Isabella's payments into his account. Isabella pointed out it was a gift to Alex & herself but Sylvia snapped that she needed no gifts from her. Alex tried to calm her down, insisting Isabella had only been helping him but Sylvia called him a liar & added that he hadn't changed at all- he was still the same sneaky, deceitful person.
Alex tried pleading with her; if it was the money she was angry over, he'll sell his car and they'll get married in a church in Peru but Sylvia flatly said no, she's tired of giving him chances & no longer trusted him; she wanted him out of the house and out of her life for good! Jose & Hercules also tell him to leave. Alex obeyed soberly.(Good riddance to VERY BAD RUBBISH!) Sylvia turned to Isabella & ordered her to leave her house too, she had no business there. Lorenzo, however had been a silent observer the whole time.

AN UNEXPECTED SNITCH

After Lorenzo left, the inspector told Laura that Giarcomo had been arrested for hiding her. However, Laura replied he never knew she was there; since she used to work at the boutique, she had her own set of keys to let herself in.(didn't see that coming, I admit)
Back at the office, Horsy Gloria actually confessed that Isabella had planned the whole so called financial crisis! Of course Lorenzo was absolutely furious at the deceit & betrayal and the fact that his suspicion had been correct after all; he couldn't believe he'd asked Isabella how'd she'd pay for the merchandise she'd offered to buy from him. He asked why Horsy hadn't told him, she replied Isabella had threatened her but now the fictitious crisis wouldn't work. Lorenzo told her he'll look into the whole affair & make a decision.(yeah, by firing the bitch I hope!)

Nattie & Tony heard about Giacormo's arrest and hurried to the police station. He is very pleased to see Nattie, asking if she'll continue visiting if he became an inmate, which made her laugh but she looked worried at the same time about his fate. The inspector then came in & repeated what Laura had told him; he was free to go. The three gather for a group hug.
Meanwhile, Lorenzo made a phone call to a friend of his at the bank, asking for a huge favour, an enquiry about a personal account.
When Sylvia returned home in the evening, Nattie told her Lorenzo had accidentally overheard a conversation Alex had over the phone earlier that day. Sylvia got angry & asked when would they all stop trying to change her mind about marrying Alex?
Sighing, Nattie said Sylvia could yell at her all she wanted but there was something she needed to see. She handed her cousin a piece of paper, adding she was free to do want she liked AFTER reading the contents of the paper. Sylvia takes it and reads...

TWO CHAPTERS CLOSED

Tony and Conan have a serious talk in a bar, to clarify situations. They reach a gentleman’s agreement and Conan assured him he’ll always be recognised & given his rights as the father of the baby. The animosity was finally over.

Lorenzo is informed of Laura’s arrest, Isabella also told him she’d been asked by the inspector to testify. Lorenzo remarked she could now rest easy. Isabella agreed but the only thing missing was Lorenzo’s answer to her earlier proposal. But Lorenzo replied he was going to use Sylvia’s instead, which made her fly into one of her violent tempers. Lorenzo calmly pointed out Sylvia’s contacts were very professional people, well prepared to deal with the overflowing merchandise & their proposal was very good for the company. But Isabella refused to calm down (Sylvia had spoilt her show ONCE AGAIN); she accused him of desperately being eager to ingratiate himself with his beloved Sylvia instead of thinking business wise. Lorenzo replied that his decision to follow Sylvia’s idea wasn’t influenced by his feelings towards her. Isabella is almost in tears, feeling helpless at Lorenzo’s firm decision about Sylvia’s proposal. Lorenzo pointed out that Sylvia’s contacts weren’t asking for large favors & weren’t going to swindle or defraud the company. Isabella shouted that he didn’t know what he was missing, not having her as his partner. Lorenzo insisted that Sylvia’s proposal was good, ‘why not read it before blowing it off?’
‘I’m not interested,’ was her answer and she stormed out.

Later on, Lorenzo went to the police station to make his own statement and branched at his soon-to-be EX-WIFE'S cell. Laura was ver cynical towards him; she believed he'd come to gloat over her downfall but he denied it. She insisted that she was'nt at all finished- she was still going to carry out her revenge on Isabella. He pointed out it would take a long time because the charges levelled on her were very serious. But she's not discouraged at all, she had a lot of patience to wait until that time came to definitely carried it out. Lorenzo urged her to repent all the evil she'd committed but she's defiant. ' Never.' she snapped.
'Bye then.' said Lorenzo.
'Goodbye, Lorenzo.' she replied, unemotionally.(I think she'd finally realised their marriage was really over)
