HERIDAS DE AMOR - Monday, 9/18/06
Daniel and his brother are at Rebeca’s asking Julio what he plans to do with the money that is theirs from their mother’s inheritance. Julio tells them of his decision to start a new investment house with Cesar by selling off his shares of the business that his father left for him, and that he will invest their money and let it work for them. Daniel gets angry and demands his rights to the stock and to his membership on the board. When his dad says no, Daniel demands his share now rather than to lose it all in a risky start-up venture like this. He orders his brother to leave with him then but Angel says no, he’s come to talk with his dad and is staying. Daniel stomps off and Angel immediately apologizes for his ungrateful actions and attitude and the two hug.
Francisco and Amparo are telling Father Buenaventura that the factory owner came through with a severance check for Francisco when Daira shows up. Francisco and Daira go out to the grounds and he apologizes for his former behavior with her, especially now that he knows she’s related to Alejandro. They begin to get on well together.
Fernanda opens the door to find it’s Gonzalo standing there. He immediately tells her that he knows that Alejandro Luque is her “guardian” and he wants to know what their true relationship is. Miranda is there and he tells her things between the two of them have changed and are irreparably torn, though she feels they shouldn’t have. Afterall, this is her mother. He says now he’s been converted into the monster and it’s all Fernanda’s fault. Fernanda says that is the last thing she’s wanted but he asks again what is the relationship between her and Alejandro Luque.
At the San Llorente hacienda Lizania and Cesar have a “heart to heart” about his desire to change into somebody respectable and well-liked. Cesar gets all weepy and whines to Lizania about what a rotten person he’s been to everybody and how he wishes he could turn into another man. They enter a room off the side and sit and chat. He tells her what a rotten womanizer he has been. She naively offers to help him, telling him just recognizing the problem and dealing with it is the first step. He says how embarrassed he is. They agree to keep this relationship and his personal tribulations quiet from everybody. She leans into kiss him but he feigns uncertainty and fear. However, he “gives in” after only a second’s pause and with a “Bueno, sí ” he demurely “plants one” solidly on Lizania’s lips...... At this point he insidiously thinks to himself how he plans to make Alejandro pay for his actions through his sister, Lizania’s, suffering.
Luis Alberto is overheard by Luciano Sartori telling a client to pull her money out of San Llorente Investments; its days are numbered. He immediately catches Luis Alberto in a lie and tells him he seems to be a disloyal employee if that’s what he’s been telling investors. Luis pretends to take offense and says Luciano is mistaken if he is thinking to accuse him. Luciano calls his bluff and tells Luis “Good try, but I know exactly what your relationship is to Cesar and one ought to be careful with what he says.”
At Fernanda’s home in Mexico City she explains that Alejandro has only lent her a hand owing to the fact that his mother was once her best friend. It has been only that. Gonzalo says he’s moving out and will take the condo at Polanco. She can move into the mansion that his father gave her as a wedding present when he used to think she loved Gonzalo and would be a good wife to him. She says no, not for pride’s sake, but she will not be moving back in there. That life is over and done. This is her house now and her sentiments and her more recent memories are a part of it now. Gonzalo answers that he is not moved by this in the least. If she thinks to point a finger at him she is mistaken; and if she thinks she’s going to continue to throw the blame to him for something that isn’t his doing, then she’s equally mistaken. “I am an honest, upstanding man. I was cheated on and I acted as a result of that. I am not sorry for it. You two go around taking delight in speaking of your victimization and your pain. Who, though will put herself in my place? Measure yourselves by the same standard!” He slams the door as he leaves. Miranda makes excuses saying he’s not really like this and has always given them a good, loving home—and adds, “If it hadn’t been for Bertha....” Fernanda agrees and says what though can they do? Miranda says they’ll force her to confess and fight her using the very same weapons she uses.
Alejandro is driving Daira back and tells her that he has lost control of himself; with regard to taking vengeance on Gonzalo, he felt no pleasure in seeing him so defeated the other day when disassociating himself with the business or in destroying the man’s life and livelihood. The look in Gonzalo's eyes was just like that of his own father’s. He's changed now and it's because he never figured to find Fernanda or Florencia and Miranda. Daira tells him then that he must do as his heart tells him.
Florencia tells Fabricio she’d love to go to Miami to buy baby clothes so Fabricio suggests they go together and get her mind off things there. He sneaks out to call his mother to use her credit card to pay for the trip but she says after paying for Julio’s hospital expenses, she doesn’t have anything left. Cesar overhears this conversation and offers to pay for everything. He takes Fabricio into the office of their hacienda and asks for bygones to be bygones as he’s done with Julio. Fabricio falls into the trap Cesar has set. They make their peace and Cesar buys the tickets, pays for the hotel, and even sets up a cash account for any expenses while up there. As Fabricio leaves Cesar thinks to himself that now he’ll be able to sell off the ranch the next day without Fabricio sticking his nose into it all and scotching the deal.
Leonardo invites Gonzalo to lunch. At the restaurant he asks Gonzalo if he had ever stopped to think that one day the bill would come due for all his past acts. Gonzalo never figured the price would be so high nor that he’d be fine one day and the next be left with absolutely nothing, including his daughters. Leonardo asks if Gonzalo might still love Fernanda and does he think there might be the remotest possibility that in fact she didn’t really cheat on him. He replies that even if she didn’t, too much harm has been done and a dead man whose name he never knew is still involved somehow. Leonardo suggests then that he consider taking the first step and investigate the circumstances. Gonzalo promises he will do just that.
Veronica and Erika’s mothers have said they must return home to Mexico City. Renata says she must stay behind to help care for her sister. Erika remind’s Renata they agreed not to let Veronica take advantage of them and that Renata should still cancel the bet over getting Juan to fall in love with her and to propose marriage. Renata ignores this advice and smiles a bit conceitedly as she continues joking with Veronica over her plans with Juan.
Alejandro picks up Miranda and she later manages to get a call from Renata telling her what’s happened at the hacienda and that everybody has gone. She and Juan will come back to Mexico the next day and then Miranda and Alejandro will fly out to the hacienda to take charge of things. Miranda and Alejandro hug as she explains how things have turned out there and she reminds him that neither of her sisters are yet to be told the truth about their mother when they return to the mansion.
