This visit is about the man I asked about before, isn't it?" Dewitt turned to face Josue. "No. Edna has been missing you, and since I'm on vacation, I thought I'd drop by." "Sparethe excuses," Josue said with a dismissive tone. "Don't try to trick me. You're a liar, just like your sister." Edna approached with a coffee in hand, her smile faltering. "A liar?

"The child is being raised by my parents as their heir and cannot leave the country. If you want to see them, you'll have to cback with me.” "Go back?" Josue sat up, crossed his arms, and stared intently at Edna. "That's your home, not mine. You played with my feelings and have keptfrom seeing my own child. What right do you have to askto go back with you?"
His anger flared as he stood abruptly, his normally cheerful expression clouded over. "Ednaxthe fact that NOV we're not enemies is the best I could do. I don't want to see your face ever again!"
The Cortez family's strong influence abroad left Josue feeling isolated and powerless to take the child from Edna. The longer it continued, the heavier his resentment grew, eventually turning into hatred.
"Josue, will you listen to me?" Edna's voice trembled. "I never imagined you e прочна object to going back with me."
