Leon quickens his footsteps, his heart feeling hot. His father defended El Richo, devoured Ariana's lies, and now instead tells him to be a real man and protect his wife without knowing what kind of wife she is.
His parents did not know that the child Ariana is carrying is the result of an affair. But they chose to believe in their daughter-in-law. Leon squeaks when he remembers Jasmine's words about Ariana's lies.
"Leon, wait!" Ariana holds Leonardo's arm by the elbow, her heart flutters. Leon already knows that she is pregnant, but why is Leon still not looking at her? Not looking at their baby's existence. Is Leon as cruel as a lion?? No, even lions love their cubs. Why does Leon not? What kind of person doesn't love their child?
"What now?" Leon throws Ariana's hand away.
