00:00Catalina challenges Leocadia and the man threatens the Lujans
00:08Chapter 67 of The Promise promises raw emotions and unexpected twists
00:14Catalina stands firm against Leocadia's wiles, starting a power struggle that could shake the foundations of the palace
00:23At the same time, Santos and Cristobal de Ricardo are the target of constant humiliation, forcing Pi to intercede in the hope of awakening a glimmer of compassion
00:34While Loé and Vera remain trapped in the tension of their painful breakup, Manuel eagerly embarks on his new business project
00:44But nothing happens to the dangerous move of the Valladares man, who crosses a red line with a threat capable of changing everything for the Lujans
00:53Who will prevail in this duel of ambitions and feelings?
01:00On Wednesday, September 17, the intrigue and drama reach a new level in The Promise
01:04The afternoon sun on Thursday, September 18, tinged the fields surrounding The Promise with gold and melancholy
01:13It was a beautiful and cruel light, one that gilded the contours of a world that for many of its inhabitants was crumbling from within
01:22The walls of the palace, witnesses to centuries-old secrets, seemed to hold their breath, anticipating the storms brewing in the hearts of those who inhabited them
01:34And Catalina's gilded cage
01:39The air in the library smelled of old leather, paper, and the noble wood of the bookshelves that rose to the ceiling like silent guardians of the Lujans' knowledge and lies
01:48But to Catalina that day it smelled like a trap
01:54The Valladares man had invited her under the pretext of reviewing some estate accounts, a pretext so banal that it immediately set off alarms
02:02He was never interested in mundane details, unless those details were bait for a much bigger fish
02:10The man stood with his back to her, gazing out at the garden through one of the large windows
02:17The setting sun silhouetted him, making him a dark and ominous figure
02:23He held a snifter of brandy, its amber liquid catching the light like a liquid jewel
02:31Catherine, my dear, thank you for coming, he said without turning
02:37His voice was a soft purr, the kind of sound a large cat might make just before it pounced on its prey
02:43Catherine, you told me it was urgent, she replied, keeping her own voice steady
02:51A shield against the unease already beginning to nestle in her stomach
02:55She stood by the door, refusing to venture any further into the space he had claimed as his lair
03:02And it is terribly urgent, he said, turning at last
03:09A thin, unwarm smile played on his lips, but it has nothing to do with the yield of the crops or the price of grain
03:17It has to do with you, with your future, and more importantly with the future of your children
03:25Catalina's heart gave a painful twist
03:31The mention of her children, of Mateo and little Sofia, transformed the atmosphere in the room
03:37The air became thick, heavy, charged with an invisible but palpable menace
03:43What do you mean by that?
03:46She asked, and she noticed an angry tremor in his voice
03:49The man took a sip of his brandy, savoring it with maddening calm
03:56He walked over to the large mahogany table, setting down his glass with a delicate click
04:01Your children are adorable creatures, full of life
04:06Mateo, with his intrepid spirit, always climbing the tallest trees in the garden
04:11And Sofia has the same curious gaze as you
04:16It would be a shame if that vitality were cut short
04:20Each word was a measured blow, designed to inflict maximum damage
04:25Catalina felt the ground open up beneath her feet
04:29It was not a veiled threat, it was a brutal and direct declaration of intent
04:36Wrapped in the cellophane of false concern
04:38Quote
04:39Don't you dare, he hissed
04:43She took a step forward, her hands balled into fists at her sides
04:47Quote
04:48Don't you dare mention them
04:50Oh, but I must because your well-being depends entirely on you
04:54He continued, visibly enjoying the panic that bloomed in Catalina's eyes
05:00You see, I have come to the conclusion that your presence at the promise is detrimental to my interests
05:09Of course, you are too intelligent, too tenacious, you hinder my plans
05:13And I, Catalina, do not tolerate obstacles
05:20You are a monster
05:21I am a practical man, he corrected
05:24He said, his smile widening
05:26And I offer you a very practical solution
05:30I want you to leave, to abandon the promise forever
05:34To renounce everything that ties you to this place and disappear
05:37Catalina looked at him incredulously
05:40The audacity of his blackmail was so excessive that for a moment it left her speechless
05:47Abandoning his home, his mother's legacy, leaving his family at the mercy of this predator
05:55He's crazy
05:57I will never do that
05:59This is my home
06:00It was your home, the man said
06:03His voice losing all its softness to give way to an edge of steel
06:06Quote
06:07This is a very dangerous place for your children to be right now
06:12Think about it, Catalina
06:13An accident could happen at any moment
06:16A horse running wild with a little girl's stroller nearby
06:21A tree branch breaking just as Mateo is at the top
06:25A careless moment in the kitchen, a spoiled meal
06:30The possibilities are endless and it would be so, so tragic
06:35No one would suspect, of course, they would just be unfortunate accidents
06:41The images his words evoked assaulted Catalina's mind with the violence of a nightmare
06:47She saw Mateo falling
06:51She saw Sophia's stroller overturned
06:54Pure, icy, paralyzing terror grip her throat, choking off any response
06:59She felt small, helpless, trapped in a web woven from her deepest affections
07:05Why?
07:10She managed to whisper her internal struggle reflected on her pale face
07:13Why so much hatred?
07:15It's not hatred, my dear, it's business
07:18And you are bad business
07:20I will give you 24 hours to make the right decision
07:23Make your suitcases
07:26Make up a plausible excuse
07:28A visit to a sick aunt
07:29A spiritual retreat
07:31I don't care, but by this time tomorrow
07:35I want you gone
07:36If you don't, she let the sentence hang
07:40Allowing the implicit threat to resonate in the oppressive silence of the library
07:44Let's just say I'm starting to get impatient
07:49And my impatience always has consequences
07:51Without another word, the Valladares man picked up his glass again and turned toward the window
07:58Bidding her farewell
07:59The conversation was over
08:04Catalina stood motionless for a moment
08:06The echo of his cruel words bouncing off her skull
08:09Then, with a robotic movement, she turned and left the library
08:15She didn't run
08:17She walked down the long, silent corridors of promise with the rigidity of an automaton
08:22Every portrait of her ancestors on the walls seemed to stare at her with accusation
08:29Every creak of the parquet beneath her feet sounded like a mockery
08:33Her mind was a whirlwind of fear and rage
08:37Fury boiled inside her
08:39A hopeless rage against the cruelty of men and against her own inability to protect those she loved most
08:44But beneath the rage, fear was an icy current that froze everything
08:51The safety of her children was the only variable that mattered
08:57Compared to that, the promise, her honor, her own life were nothing
09:02It was in this trance-like state that she ran into Adriano
09:07He was leaving his office, his brow furrowed by some work-related concern
09:11But his expression changed when he saw her
09:13Quote
09:14Catalina, are you okay?
09:17He asked, his voice filled with a genuine concern that was almost unbearable to her at that moment
09:22She looked up and he could see the abyss in her eyes
09:29She was pale, her lips colorless, her gaze lost
09:33I need air
09:36It was all she could manage to articulate
09:39What happened?
09:40It was the man
09:41I saw you enter the library with him
09:43Catalina shook her head abruptly
09:47She couldn't tell him
09:49The man would have made that clear
09:51Silence was part of the deal
09:53If she spoke, the consequences would be the same
09:58No, it was nothing
09:59I'm just tired of all this, Adriano
10:03Of the promises, of the intrigues, of the responsibilities
10:06Adriano looked at her, completely bewildered
10:10This was not the Catalina he knew
10:15The Catalina he admired was a fighter
10:18A woman who never gave up
10:19Who found strength in adversity
10:21Tired, Catalina, you are the backbone of this place
10:27What are you talking about?
10:31She pulled away from his questioning gaze
10:33Leaning against the cold wall of the hallway
10:35The decision, horrible and unbearable
10:40Began to solidify inside him
10:42It was a surrender
10:44The bitterest of his life
10:46But he saw no other way out
10:47Maybe it's time for me to go
10:52His voice said
10:53As fragile as shattering glass
10:55That he would abandon his promise
11:00Adriana's confusion turned to disbelief
11:02Leave, abandon everything
11:06Why?
11:07What did that man say to you
11:09To make you even consider something so crazy?
11:12This makes no sense
11:13It makes all the sense in the world
11:16She exclaimed with a vehemence that surprised him
11:19Hot, furious tears finally welled up in her eyes
11:26Maybe I can't take it anymore
11:28Don't you understand?
11:29Maybe I'm broken
11:30He tried to move closer
11:33To put a hand on her arm
11:34But she shrugged him off
11:36No, I don't believe you, Catalina
11:40He said, his voice firm
11:42But full of pain at seeing her like that
11:44You don't break
11:47You don't give up
11:48Something else is happening
11:49Something you're not telling me
11:51You can't give in to that wretch's pressure
11:55But she no longer heard him
11:57In her mind only the silent laughter of the man
12:02And the images of her children
12:03Happy and unaware of the danger that loomed over them
12:06A danger that only she could avoid at the highest price
12:09Adriana's rage
12:13The incomprehension of others
12:15Everything
12:15That was secondary
12:16The choice
12:20Impossible as it seemed
12:21Had already been made
12:22She would leave too
12:24Anora's unsettling silence
12:26Manuel had been watching Anora for days
12:30It was not a conscious surveillance at first
12:33But rather a series of small anomalies
12:35That his mind
12:36Trained to detect mechanical failures
12:38In the engines of his planes
12:39Had been registering
12:40The young maid
12:46Normally discreet but efficient
12:47Had become erratic
12:49Her behavior as unpredictable
12:50As a gust of wind in midair
12:52This morning
12:56As she crossed the main lobby
12:58She saw her talking to one of the waiters
13:00Near the service stairs
13:01When she noticed Manuel's presence
13:06Anora fell abruptly
13:07She gave him a look that was a mixture of panic and guilt
13:11Then slunk away to the kitchen
13:13Leaving the waiter standing there speechless
13:15Later, during lunch
13:19Manuel asked her to bring him a glass of water
13:22She nodded
13:24But it took her forever to return
13:26When she did
13:28Her hands were shaking so visibly
13:30That water spilled over her face
13:32The rim of the glass
13:33As he handed it to her
13:36He avoided her gaze
13:37His eyes fixed on an indeterminate point on the wall
13:40Anora, are you okay?
13:44Manuel asked her
13:45His tone more curious than accusatory
13:48She jumped as if she had been awakened from a dream
13:53Yes, senorito Manuel
13:55Perfectly
13:59Excuse me, she murmured
14:01And before he could say anything else
14:03She curtsied awkwardly
14:05And practically fled from the dining room
14:07Manuel's suspicion
14:11Until then a mere mist
14:12Began to take on a more definite shape
14:14It was not just nervousness
14:18It was the behavior of someone who is hiding something
14:21Someone who is afraid of being discovered
14:23In the afternoon he decided to look for her
14:27He found her in the ironing room
14:29Folding sheets with feverish concentration
14:31As if the task required all her attention
14:34So as not to think about anything else
14:35The air was heavy with the smell of warm linen and starch
14:41Anora, Manuel said
14:43Leaning against the door frame
14:45She jumped again
14:48And a pile of freshly ironed tablecloths fell to the floor
14:51Senorito
14:53I, you scared me
14:54I'm sorry
14:56I just wanted to talk for a moment
14:58He said
14:59Entering the small, warm room
15:00I've noticed that you seem worried and distracted lately
15:07If there's anything I can help you with
15:10Just say the word
15:11Anora bent down to gather the tablecloths
15:14Her face hidden from Manuel's view
15:16Her voice, when she answered
15:19Sounded muffled
15:20It's nothing, young master
15:24Really, just my own business
15:26Unimportant worries
15:27Sure, Manuel insisted
15:32His instincts telling him that she was lying
15:34Because her demeanor suggested otherwise
15:37She seemed to be walking on tenterhooks
15:40As if she were afraid someone would find out
15:43At the word find out
15:46Anora's heart pricked
15:47Her eyes, large and frightened
15:51Locked with his
15:52For a second
15:54Manuel saw a vulnerability so profound
15:57That he almost regretted pressing
15:58She looked on the verge of confessing
16:03Of breaking down
16:04Her lips parted
16:05A strangled sound escaped her throat
16:08But then the door opened
16:12Antonio, Simona's son
16:13Appeared with a basket of vegetables
16:15Anora, my mother told me that
16:20She began to say
16:21But stopped when she saw Manuel
16:23The atmosphere in the room was so tense
16:27You could cut it with a knife
16:28Oh, excuse me
16:32I didn't mean to interrupt
16:34The interruption broke the spell
16:35The mask of composure fell back over Anora's face
16:39You're not interrupting anything
16:43Tonio, she said
16:44Her voice now surprisingly firm
16:46Mr. Manuel was already leaving
16:48Manuel looked at her
16:51Realizing that the moment had passed
16:53She had put her defenses back up
16:56He wasn't going to get anything more from her for now
16:59Quote
17:00Yes, I was leaving
17:02He confirmed
17:03Though his gaze remained fixed on Anora
17:05Trying to decipher the enigma
17:07But my offer still stands
17:10If you need anything
17:12Anything at all
17:13Don't hesitate to seek me out
17:14He left the ironing room with more questions than answers
17:17The fear in Anora's eyes was real
17:22What could be so terrible as to provoke such dread?
17:25And what role did the obvious connection she seemed to have with Tonio play in all of this?
17:31Manuel's suspicion had become a certainty
17:33Anora was hiding a secret
17:36One that he feared could have consequences for everyone in the promise
17:39And he was determined to discover what it was
17:443. The winter of Petra's discontent
17:47Deep in the promise
17:51In the world of service where hierarchies were as rigid as those of the nobility
17:55Petra Arcos had always been a feared figure
17:57Her loyalty to the Martianess was legendary and her tongue sharp as a razor
18:04But in recent days her temper had soured to an unbearable point
18:11Turned into a perpetual storm of ill humor
18:15And every member of the household was a lightning rod for his ire
18:18The day began with an outburst in the laundry
18:22Petra found a tiny stain on the collar of one of the Marquise's shirts
18:26An almost invisible stain that had survived the wash
18:29Incompetence
18:33She roared, waving the shirt in the air as if it were a war flag
18:37The washerwoman, two young and timid girls, cringe under her withering gaze
18:45You don't have eyes in your head
18:49Do you understand that the Marquis has made a mess because of you?
18:54Let's scrub it again and if it doesn't come off, you'll scrub it with your own skin
18:58Later, in the kitchen, her anger turned to him
19:03Croquettes
19:04Croquettes again for the servants' lunch
19:07She snapped, looking at the plate with absolute disdain
19:10There's nothing else in your repertoire, boy
19:14You're going to make us die of boredom and fat
19:17But Mrs. Petra, if croquettes please you
19:21They delight everyone
19:23Lope tried to defend himself, confused
19:25I don't love them and I'm the one who matters
19:30She replied, her voice rising in volume
19:32Tomorrow I want a decent stew with fresh vegetables
19:38Not this tavern fry-up
19:39The tension was palpable
19:43The staff tiptoed as she passed
19:45Conversations fell silent when she entered a room
19:49Her bitterness was a poison that seeped through the entire service, spreading discomfort and resentment
19:57Simona and Candela, while peeling potatoes, discussed the situation in whispers
20:05It's worse than ever, Candela said, casting a nervous glance toward the door
20:12It looks like she's swallowed a wasp and it's stung her insides
20:15Something's eating away at her soul
20:17Candela replied Simona, her face furrowed with worry
20:20No one becomes this bitter for nothing
20:25It's as if she carries a very deep sorrow and the only way she knows how to release it is by biting
20:30The height of her irascibility came in the afternoon and the victim was Vera
20:36The young maid, already immersed in her own dark crisis, accidentally spilled a few drops of water on the freshly mopped floor of the main hallway
20:44Petra, who was passing by at that moment, stopped dead in her tracks
20:50But well, besides being useless, you're clumsy
20:53Petra snapped at her, her voice dripping with venom
20:57Look what you've done, they've just mopped
21:00Do you think we're here to serve you and clean up your botched jobs?
21:06Vera, pale and with eyes red from crying so much in secret, froze
21:10I'm sorry, Mrs. Petra, I didn't realize
21:16I'll clean it right now
21:18Of course you will, shouted Petra, her face just inches from the young woman's
21:24On your knees and I want to see my reflection in that tile when you're done
21:28Let's see if that way you'll learn to be more careful, you wretch
21:31The public humiliation was the last straw for many
21:38The murmur of disapproval was almost audible
21:42Even Maria Fernandez, who used to confront Petra, was left speechless by such cruelty
21:50The atmosphere in the service area had become unbreathable and everyone knew that if something
21:54didn't change, the situation would end up exploding in the worst possible way
22:02Petra was creating a powder keg and she herself was holding the lit match and V wedding bells were ringing in the kitchen
22:10Amidst the tension generated by Petra, the kitchen continued to be a small refuge
22:15An oasis of aromas and rumors where life, despite everything, continued its course
22:19And the rumor that had gained the most strength in recent days was that of a possible wedding between Tonio,
22:27Simona's son, and the enigmatic Anora
22:32The rumor had begun with furtive glances, stolen smiles in the hallways and small gestures of
22:37complicity that had not gone unnoticed by the expert eyes of Simona and Lo
22:44Tonio, who had always been a free and somewhat carefree soul, seemed to have found an anchor in the young maid
22:49I tell you, Lope, my boy lights up, quote, his face every time he sees her,
22:57Simona said that afternoon, as she needed bread with renewed energy
23:04The idea of seeing her son settle down filled her with indescribable happiness, quote
23:10They look good together, Simona
23:12They make a good couple, Lopez said, adding herbs to a stew
23:16Although Anora is very reserved, it's hard to know what she's thinking
23:23Well, that's because she's shy, but she has a heart of gold
23:28I know that
23:30And my Tonio will know how to take care of her
23:33Oh, Lopez, can you imagine a wedding in the promise?
23:37What joy they would bring us
23:39After so much sorrow, we need something to celebrate
23:43Simona's excitement was contagious
23:46She dreamed aloud about the preparations, the dress, the banquet
23:51She imagined her son, her little Tonio, becoming a family man, giving him grandchildren
23:56for whom he could cook his best dishes
23:59For her, this wedding represented the culmination of her hopes as a mother
24:03A happy and stable future for the son she adored so much
24:06Anora herself, however, seemed oblivious to these plans
24:14When Simona, in a fit of enthusiasm, made a veiled comment about how well a wedding dress would suit her
24:20The young woman put on a she turned pale and stammered an excuse to leave the kitchen in a hurry
24:27Simona interpreted her reaction as pure novice embarrassment
24:30Poor thing, I scared her, she said to Candela, laughing
24:37She was not used to these things, but Lopez, who had observed the scene more closely, was not so sure
24:46Anora's reaction had not seemed to him to be one of shyness, but of panic
24:51The same panic that Manuel had detected
24:53There was something in this relationship that did not fit, a piece of the puzzle that no one, except perhaps those involved, knew about
25:06And while Simona dreamed of wedding bells, others began to hear a discordant note in that melody of love
25:13Vera's walled in loneliness
25:16Vera's pain was a silent and deep ocean
25:18No one knew the cause of her crisis, but its effects were devastating and visible tall
25:27She had built a wall around herself, brick by brick, with silences, lost gazes and a sadness so dense that it seemed to have a physical entity
25:38Lope, who felt a special affection for her, was the one who suffered the most seeing her like this
25:43He had tried to approach her on multiple occasions with the delicacy of someone who doesn't want to scare a wounded bird
25:52Vera, do you want to take a walk in the garden when we're done?
25:56The fresh air will do you good, he suggested that afternoon as they were clearing the service's dinner plates
26:04She didn't even look up from the plate she was cleaning
26:08No, thank you, Lope
26:09I'm tired, I'd rather go to my room
26:14But you've barely eaten, can I make you something?
26:18A hot soup, a piece of cake
26:21I'm not hungry, she replied, her voice monotonous, emotionless
26:27Maria Fernandez had tried too
26:30She sat down beside him in the bedroom they shared, a space that had previously witnessed their confidences and laughter
26:36Vera, my friend, you have my soul on tenterhooks, he said softly
26:43Whatever is happening to you, you do not have to carry this burden alone
26:49We are here to help you, let us in
26:52Vera turned away in bed so that her back was to him
26:56There is nothing you can do
26:59No one can do anything, please, leave me alone
27:02The word loneliness had become her only companion
27:07She moved through the promise like a ghost, mechanically carrying out her tasks, her empty eyes reflecting an inner torment that no one could decipher
27:17Her friend's rejection of their help was what disconcerted and hurt them the most
27:21It was not just that she suffered, it was that she had chosen to suffer alone, locked in an invisible prison whose key she seemed to have thrown away
27:32Her isolation became more evident, more painful, every day, and those who loved her felt helpless, watching from the other side of an invisible glass as she sank a little deeper each day
27:43I saw Pia Dare's exile
27:47The news arrived in an official envelope bearing the seal of the king's estate
27:54But the hand that pulled the strings was that of Don Cristobal, the new intendant of promise
27:58A man whose efficiency was surpassed only by his utter lack of compassion
28:04Pia, the housekeeper, was summoned to her office
28:07The same office where Romulo had once sat, a place that now felt cold, impersonal, like its new occupant
28:17Cristobal did not invite her to sit
28:20He remained standing behind his desk, papers in hand
28:25Madame Adair, he began
28:28Without preamble, I have been reviewing the staff structure and the needs of the various palaces under my administration
28:34It has been decided that your skills would be of greatest use in the royal palace of Aranwiz
28:43Pia looked at him in confusion
28:45Aranwiz, no, I do not understand, sir
28:49It is a transfer order, he clarified, his tone as sharp as a knife
28:57Starting next week, you will serve as head housekeeper at Aranwiz
29:00It's a promotion
29:05She should be grateful, really
29:07The word promotion sounded like an insult
29:12Aranwiz, miles away, miles from her son, little Di Guido
29:16Who was sleeping at that very moment in the crib she had managed to keep close to her with so much effort
29:21The realization hit her like a punch to the stomach, knocking the wind out of her
29:28And my son?
29:32Her voice asked, a threat of panic trembling
29:34My son cannot travel, he is only a baby
29:36Cristobal looked at her with barely concealed impatience
29:43Obviously, the child will remain here in the promise
29:46There are more than enough wet nurses and maids to take care of him
29:51A baby cannot be allowed to interfere with the duties of the crown
29:58Devastation flooded Pia's face
30:00This was not a transfer, it was an exile
30:02A cruel and calculated punishment to separate her from the only thing that gave meaning to her life
30:09Tears welled up in her eyes, but she refused to break down in front of this man
30:13Sir, she begged, her voice breaking
30:20You can't do this to me, he's my son
30:23He needs me
30:25I'm his mother, quote, and you are an employee, he interrupted her relentlessly
30:32Your duties are above your personal attachments
30:35The decision is final and cannot be discussed
30:39You may leave
30:39Pia remained there, rooted to the ground, unable to move
30:45The world had stopped
30:48The sound of her own heart beating violently was all she could hear
30:52She wanted to be separated from Diguaito
30:54The idea was so monstrous, so unnatural, that her mind refused to accept it
31:00It was worse than a death sentence
31:03It was living torture
31:05She left the office like a sleepwalker
31:08She saw no one in the hallways
31:10She heard nothing
31:12Her only destination was her son's room
31:15As she entered, the tears she had been holding back finally overflowed into silent, heartbreaking sobs
31:21She approached the crib and gazed at her baby's sleeping face, so peaceful, so oblivious to the cruelty of the world that awaited him
31:32She picked him up in her arms with infinite delicacy, pressing him against her chest as if she wanted to merge him with her own
31:38Quote, being
31:42She breathed in his scent of milk and innocence, and tears fell on the child's little head
31:46My life, my little one, she whispered between sobs
31:53They want to tear me away from you, they want to steal you from me, but I won't let them
31:58I swear, my love, I don't know how, but I won't let them separate us
32:02But as she made that desperate promise, a terrible feeling of helplessness invaded her
32:11She was facing a cold and inhuman system personified in Cristobal, a man who didn't understand love or mercy
32:17The order was given, the machinery was already in motion and Pierre, for the first time in a long time, felt completely and utterly alone and defeated, hugging her son under the shadow of an imminent and brutal separation
32:377. The Dangerous Dance of Kuro and Angela
32:41The love between Kuro and Angela flourished in secret like a rare and beautiful flower that could only grow in the shadows
32:47Every encounter was a risk, every glance shared in public a danger, but the intensity of their feelings was stronger than their fear
33:01That night they met in the farthest corner of the garden, hidden by the embrace of an old oak tree and the complicity of the new moon
33:11We shouldn't be doing this, Angela whispered, although her hand searched for Kuro's in the darkness
33:17If anyone sees us, let them see us, he replied, his voice vibrating with defiant passion
33:25He cradled her face in his hands
33:28I don't care
33:29All I care about is being with you
33:33Every second away from you is torture
33:36They kissed
33:37A kiss charged with the urgency of those who know their time is limited and stolen
33:40It was a pure love, born against all odds, but surrounded by a web of interests and threats that loomed over them
33:52The main spider in that web was Lorenzo, the captain of the bush
33:57While the young people were secretly in love, he was having a very different conversation in the main hall with Leo Katia, Angela's mother
34:04Leo Katia, my dear, we must talk about Angela's future, Lorenzo said, pouring her a glass of sherry
34:15His tone was affable, almost paternal, but his eyes held a calculating gleam
34:21Angela's future is assured, replied Leo Katia
34:24An ambitious woman who saw her daughter's marriage as an opportunity to advance socially
34:28We will find the right suitor, a man of good family, composition
34:37Precisely, and I think we should speed up the process, Lorenzo insisted
34:43Youth is impulsive and Angela spends a lot of time with my nephew, Kuro
34:49The mention of Kuro was deliberate, a stone thrown into the pond to see the ripples it caused
34:54Quote
34:56They are friends, they have grown up together, Leo Katia said, although a shadow of unease crossed her face
35:04Ah, the friendship between a man and a woman
35:07A charming chimera, Lorenzo said with a sly smile
35:13I am not saying there is anything inappropriate, I am only saying that people talk and a young woman's reputation is fragile
35:19An arranged and publicly announced marriage would put an end to any malicious rumors
35:28Lorenzo was playing a complex game of chess
35:31On the one hand, he wanted to secure an advantageous marriage for Angela that would somehow benefit him
35:40On the other, the possibility of a romance between her and Kuro was intriguing to him
35:44It could be a lever, a weapon to be used at the right moment
35:50He dropped his last and most poisonous insinuation
35:55I've been watching Kuro lately
35:58He seems different, distracted, as if his head were in the clouds, occupied by someone
36:04And I've noticed the way he looks at your daughter
36:06It's not the look of a simple friend, Leo Katia
36:09Believe me, the poison had an effect
36:14Leo Katia's unease turned to alarm
36:18The idea that her daughter had become infatuated with a young man without a title or fortune like Kuro was a disaster for her plans
36:27I will take immediate action, her tense voice said
36:31Lorenzo smiled to himself
36:33The seed of suspicion had been planted
36:38He knew that Leo Katia would increase her surveillance of Angela, making her encounters with Kuro even more difficult and dangerous
36:46The net was tightening around the secret lovers
36:50They were unaware that while they were swearing eternal love to each other under the stars, the pieces were moving against them on the board, pushing them towards an ending that seemed inevitably tragic
36:59And so Thursday came to an end in the promise
37:06A day of forced decisions, secrets about to explode, broken hearts and threatened loves
37:14Night fell over the palace, but it did not bring peace
37:18It only spread a dark cloak over the storms that would unleash their full fury with the first light of dawn
37:29This is written to be a friend that was high most sophisticated aquell cats who were прыged under the manger
37:32The cherry Personenỗiriy
37:33The sky jumped over the Rocky millennium
37:38Here we get it seriously
37:40All theΓ cima
37:42I am Kristi
