My Hottest Man's
Chapters 27. Sad Melody

A month has passed since Bellova last saw Raymundo Alvaro on the runway side of Zaragoza airport. He tried to forget the man, continue to live because Raymundo Alvaro did not come looking for him also without news. And there was no coincidence that made them meet.

Unable to remove them from the night in the tent, hugging himself as Raymundo Alvaro's look flashed at the tip of his eye.

What the hell's going on?

Is she in love with Raymond Alvaro?

Bellova.

No. gabe. Don'tdon't. Please do!

Then why does he think of Raymundo Alvaro every second, every minute, every day, in a daze?

"I end things with him and say continue with each other's lives" he exclaimed. "What do you expect, Bellova?

Raymundo Alvaro didn't come to talk about Miradoura. Isn't this profitable?

Look at the children's homework. Bellova's never been this upset before. He plucked a rose in the school garden, taking off strands by strands in a slow rhythm.

"Bellova, the Principal asked you to his room."

Silvana, one of the colleagues from the doorstep of the teacher's room surprised him, not necessarily for him to look up. Stared with roses on the table.

"Belloa?!" call Silvana again when you don't receive a response.

Bellova raised her face slowly.

"I'll be facing soon."

A week ago Bellova went to Lisbon to visit Belliza before heading to Barrancos but Oskan was not home, nor was Cheryl. According to the housekeeper, Oskan took Cheryl to Sao Vicente, his parents' home. Bellova wanted to confirm Cheryl's whereabouts, set a time for her to visit Sao Vicente.

Skip the art space that is quite long, glancing inside. The interns are indoors, setting up a sound system for art training with the kids after lunch. Diego Samuel strummed guitar strings while singing very passionately in the chorus section.

Oh Baby, show me the sign

Oh, you show me a sign

Send me a signal that everything's fine

Send a signal that everything is fine

Come on, stand up right up by my side

Come on, slide over here, by my side

You know that I, I wanna rest in your life

You know I want to rest in your light

Bellova skipped the open class and turned inward for the terribly upset lyrics in the fast beat rhythm, finding Diego Samuel slipping one eye, clearly teasing him.

*Na na hey, na na oh

Na na hey, na na na oh*

Bellova clucked, are they going to teach the children that heartbroken song? He'll reprimand Diego Samuel later. Continue to step into the principal's room.

"Bellova, you will be sent to attend an intensive professional development program at the University of Azores."

Caesar Benjamin spoke in the Headmaster's room. Caesar's personality is inversely proportional to that of Raymundo Alvaro. Bellova's getting helpless.

"Are there no other teachers?"

"Don't turn down a good opportunity, Bellova. It can improve teacher competence."

"Sir, I'm not focused."

"alright. Since you're not willing, I can give Silvana a chance."

"Yes. Can I apply for a leave?"

"Follow?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Two weeks we're off. Leave is not a good idea."

"I need to take care of something, sir."

Bellova walked home. While in Lisbon he took the time to go to the studio to check on the work of Belliza's employees. Bellova discovers that the studio is on the verge of bankruptcy. Belliza's assistant was in control for too long and spent the money on production grounds. The woman apparently built her own studio and stole all the customers. Bellova took one or two orders out of five orders. The top two came from Belliza's gangmate Adriella Xaviera and a woman named Viviane Raquel.

They need money for Belliza's treatment. Despite being mean and rude to Belliza, it is fortunate that Oskan remains responsible. At least Sao Vicente also sent support for Belliza. However, everything can change at any time.

"Mr Lucio Vargas sent the best neurologist from Toronto to deal with Belliza."

Dona. Bellova was very curious about this man, so send a message through Dona to get Lucio Vargas to leave his phone number and address. Bellova wants to meet. How not? Belliza never mentioned Lucio Vargas at all, but the man seemed to be involved in something with Belliza.

Get home, get into the yard. Bellova used to live with her grandparents. After her grandfather died, Bellova's parents moved back to Lajes to take care of her grandfather's waterfront restaurant. The house was then increasingly crowded, but only at certain times when Bellinda was at home. The explorer girl was busy in the restaurant.

"Belloa?! You came back sooner? Are you sick?"

Bellova's grandmother, Amaris Damier, was 80 years old but still strong. Speak in the typical voice of the elderly.

"I miss you, Deputy Lady. That's why I came home early" Bellova teased.

"Eat!"

"You know, that the teachers in this state are very much loved. We were fed a healthy and nutritious meal at school at lunch."

"Teachers are the best profession."

"Yes. We are educating someone for the future of the world in the classroom. All professions are educated by teachers."

"remarkable. Then, why do you want to quit this noble job?"

Bellova surprised. Look at Amaris Damier. Tacit. Pour water into a glass and drink.

"We need a lot of money for Belliza's treatment" Bellova said. "After all, I didn't stop, Grandma. I'm just on leave. How did grandma know?"

His grandmother only lived at home but knew a lot of information.

"It doesn't matter where I know it. Belliza needs money? What about Oskan? My poor granddaughter."

"Yes. Oskan was not a good man for Belliza even though Oskan did not stop providing material for Belliza. I need a lot of money to bring Cheryl and Belliza."

"Then, what are you going to do?"

"I'll do some projects in the studio. You know, one customer from Belliza's studio made a lot of money. There are only two employees left."

Although Raymundo Alvaro came and bought Miradoura, Bellova still needed a lot of money. He can face Oskan, but what if Sao Vicente keeps Cheryl?

"Oh My dear. What can I do for you and Belliza?"

"Just pray for us, Grandma."

"When did you go?"

"Fastly, Grandma. This is very serious. Caesar Benjamin has allowed me. Oskan could not be reached. I'm nervous thinking about Cheryl."

"All right."

"I need a break."

Bellova put a glass in the kitchen and went back to her room.

"Oh yeah, Mr. Alvaro just stopped by. He asked if you could meet him in Miradoura later this afternoon?"

Bellova stop steps. His heart was beating slowly before changing rapidly, very quickly.

"Mr Alvaro?"

"Yes. Mr. Alvaro who stopped by here took your clothes."

Bellova can't hide the beat. The guy's back? Why not come to school like last time?

"So about 1."

"No, I mean what time does Mr. Alvaro want us to meet?" bellova asked keeping her tone sounding ordinary. However, Bellova should not have to try too hard, this woman in front of her, Amaris Damier. The woman who raised Bellova. Amaris smiled gently looking at Bellova's expression.

"Hour 4 later. Is this about Miradoura?"

Bellova nodded. Between being happy to see the man and sad to lose Miradoura.

"Tarta can be found, Love. But Belliza can't be reborn if something happens to her."

Bellova nodded in agreement and went to her room. Unknowingly dismantle the closet and look for good clothes.

Forget that! Just act normal.

The man doesn't care about his appearance. Bellova went to the bathroom, cleaned her face while whistling and the red hue on her face had been constantly sticking out. Bellova needed to slap her cheek hard, in order to come to her senses. Go under the shower, let the water flow. Washing his head is also his brain.

First of all, he'll take the money, then go to Lisbon. He will seek a lawyer to consult while working and taking care of Belliza. He's meeting Cheryl.

All right, Bellova, let's do it.

Get out of the bathroom, wear a t-shirt and jeans as well as sneakers and jackets. He won't bring any land documents because he needs a notary. He will only meet Mr. Alvaro for a physical check of the land and tell the man the land boundary.

"Hurry back, your parents want to talk."

"Do you know what?"

"Man for you. How old are you, Bellova?"

"Oh no, no!" Bellova's bellows are hard. Nowadays people can find their own soul mate without the help of parents. "I found someone." Bellova sounded convinced.

"Mr Alvaro?" guess Amaris straight to the core.

"I'm leaving, Grandma." Bellova waved, not answering her grandmother's question. However, the old woman smiled.

Miradoura has been tidied up from trees and weeds. Camping house is left alone. Pluck flowers and tuck them in the ear. Bellova walks on the ground, gifts her grandfather to her for wanting to stay with them in Santa Cruz. Waiting for the man while enjoying the beach afternoon breeze. The Atlantic Ocean is so vast, blue and washed away.

The car stopped in front of the ground. Bellova can't wait to turn around. The car door opened and someone came down from there.

Bellova swallows disappointed, the man is not Raymundo Alvaro. Get a jacket, Bellova a few seconds, still hoping to see Raymundo Alvaro.

"Miss Bellova, I was at your house at my sister's request." Aldinho Alvaro hands to shake hands.

Bellova observes hand then on Aldinho, soon awakens.

Is that guy okay?

"Mr Aldinho."

"Yes, Miss Bellova. I want to check this place out at my brother's request. He said he had reached a consensus with you."

Bellova nodded, "Yes. Where is Lord Raymondo Alvaro?"

"It's been busy."

"All right."

"We've checked the status of this land."

"This land is mine and not in dispute" Bellova said.

"Yes, I'm going to say the same thing. And you can see the price my brother sent."

"This land is potentially, very strategically used as a commercial building for business purposes. In the future it will be a valuable property."

"Great first impression" Aldinho Alvaro said. "We're just going to build a dwelling for a place to live."

"The dream of introverts, calm and peaceful. You just hear the pounding of the waves as well as the sound of gulls."

Aldinho Alvaro nodded. "Seems like you know my brother's style?"

Bellova gave a small smile, unable to explain her heart as well as something that was settling there.

"So, a month ago did you come to my house, meet my grandmother and take my clothes?" asked Bellova curiously.

"Yes. I'm not alone. My brother's waiting in the car."

Bellova breathed out loudly. Month passed. The man forgot about them. So, Bellova had no reason to remember.

Receive documents from Aldinho and check. Raymundo Alvaro offers three times the price of Miradoura predicted by Bellova.

"Is that less?" aldinho asked probably because he saw his forehead wrinkled.

Bellova. "This price is very far above the fair price according to the market."

"Yes, we have done a comparison with the closest similar land here. My brother gave you the perfect offer because you were willing to sell Miradoura to him."

Bellova nodded. "When are we gonna finish this? I have prepared all the legal documents. Certificate of land ownership, taxes and other supporting documents."

"Raymundo Alvaro is coming to see you, Miss Bellova. As soon as."

Bellova nodded.

"You need to call me if you want to meet. I won't be here for long because of an affair."

"Is that so?" Aldinho seemed to think. "I'll call him."

Get the phone out and call Raymundo.

"It must be busy" Aldinho complained when the phone was not picked up. Try it one more time.

"Aldinho?!"

Bellova involuntarily held her breath hearing the voice from across.

"Em, I'm sorry to bother you, brother. I was in Miradoura checking out the location with Miss Bellova."

Silent.

"Yes?"

"When will the transaction be completed? We need to adjust the schedule. Notary is ready."

Silent.

"Do it this afternoon!"

"Tanpamu?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"All right."

"Send Miss Bellova's account number to me."

Bellova heard the conversation. Raymundo Alvaro doesn't sound like he's heard, talked to or maybe got in touch with him.

"All right" Aldinho said.

"Is there anything else?" ask Raymond from next door.

How are you, sir?

Bellova shook her head resignedly as Aldinho asked without a voice asking for his opinion. End call.

Bellova thought she had lost Miradoura, also half herself, because she had never been the same since that night.

The leaves are roared by the sea breeze. Bellova's heart was slowly gray, empty and cold. Resetting himself. Decide on his family and move on as if nothing ever happened.
