Episode 6

In the car

Leandro: it's just that she's amazing she's too beautiful she's a goddess and it's killing me that I fell into her trap and no I'm not willing to lose money for a woman 😠

Alexa: -breaks the awkward silence- you already have my ticket?

Leandro: -looking at her- I feel that if I see her I'm going to fall on her so I'd better concentrate on driving yes -I say with difficulty- yes, I'm going to fall on her so I'd better concentrate on driving.

Alexa: well and your mom knows about us and our agreement?

Leandro: if my mother knows everything, she will help you in everything you need.

Alexa: oh how nice, thank you.

They arrived at a very beautiful restaurant

Leandro: Let's go - taking her hand -

Alexa: 👀 - looking at him -

Leandro: I told you, you have to act like a cute and affectionate wife outside 😏

Alexa: There's no one here to act like that.

Leandro: There are reporters who will photograph us, so look cute and affectionate.

Alexa: 'Oh God, what did I get myself into' 🥺

Narrator: Leandro ordered some dishes for both of them and while they were eating, an unwelcome character arrived for Leandro.

Leonardo: Good evening, little brother.

Leandro: - turns to look at him - What are you doing here, Leonardo?

Leonardo: I'm doing the same as you, brother, but unlike you, I came with my wife... Not with an escort 😏

Leandro: - stands up angrily from his chair and tells him - Respect my wife, Leonardo!

Leonardo: 😳😳 What did you say?

Leandro: What you heard, this lady is my wife.

Leonardo: That's impossible, you didn't even have a girlfriend... It looks like this is a trap of yours so that I don't get my company.

Leandro: Well, you're very mistaken - he takes his wife's hand and lifts her from the chair with a lot of affection and says to her - Come, my sweetheart - he puts her back to him and in front of his stepbrother - Do you remember Leonardo, darling?

Alexa: Yes, love, how are you, Leonardo? It's me, Leandro's secretary ☺️ 'giving him a fake smile'

Leonardo: 🤨🤨 What? That's a lie... That woman can't be you!! She was such a simple woman.

Leandro: - stands in front of his wife and abruptly grabs Leonardo by his jacket - Respect her or I won't respond, Leonardo.

Leonardo: A shotgun marriage?? How much did you pay that - looking at her with disdain - woman to marry you...

Narrator: - Leandro interrupts him with a strong punch - and Leonardo falls to the floor and Leonardo's wife creates a scene. At this moment, many reporters arrive.

Leandro: I told you to respect her...

Alexa: She takes her husband's arm, please, let's leave, Leandro.

Reporters: Mr. Leandro, who is the lady?

Alexa: - shaking her head - Please, let's go.

Leandro: The lady present here is my wife - after saying this, he gives her a tender kiss -

Reporters: Sir, when did you decide to get married, how long have you been together, why did you fight with your brother?

Narrator: There were so many questions, but they simply ignored them and left the place. Leandro is a partner in the restaurant where they were dining, so he left without paying.

In the car

Alexa: Leandro, why did you play along with your brother?

Leandro: He's not my brother, so don't call him that!

Alexa: Whatever, you don't have to fall for his provocations.

Leandro: Since the moment you signed the marriage certificate, becoming my wife, you are completely untouchable for anyone, that's why I will make sure you are respected!

Alexa: Leandro, that's not a reason to behave like this. And even though it sounds ugly 🥺 I sold myself to you, I gave up and stopped fighting... I chose the easy way - with tears in her eyes - I've always fought so much that I was tired.

Leandro: Don't say that! You didn't take the easy way out, don't see it that way. This is a business, and you will also have to work hard, so don't say that again, okay? - he hugs her -

Alexa: Thank you, Leandro 😢 but I can't help feeling bad.

Leandro: Ignore what that idiot said. - he starts the car - Do you want to go eat somewhere else?

Alexa: No, no... Thank you for everything! But please take me home, tomorrow morning I have to be at the airport.

Leandro: I can take you to the airport...

Alexa: It's not necessary, I'll take an Uber.

They arrived at Alexa's house

Alexa: Thanks for everything.

Leandro: Wait, Alexa. I feel really sorry for what happened, forgive me.

Alexa: It's not your fault.

Leandro: Here, take our marriage certificate ✉️ there in the envelope, you'll also find the release of the mortgage you were paying for the vineyard, now it's yours... The ticket is there too. 'whispering' Although I'm already regretting sending you to England 😔

Alexa: Sorry? I didn't hear you.

Leandro: No, no, nothing... Is there anything else, Alexa? - he takes her arm - Remember that as my wife, you must respect me in every sense, okay?

Alexa: What are you talking about, Leandro?

Leandro: You can't get close to any man, especially not there at my parents' house.

Alexa: 🤨 I remind you Leandro, it was you who demanded privacy in our lives!!

Leandro: Well, I'm just reminding you that you're my wife now and even if it's just an agreement, you must respect me.

Alexa: 😠 Calm down, I know how to behave 🤨 - she frees herself from his grip- Goodbye.

Leandro: Take care. Call me every day, ok ☺️

Alexa: Ok Leandro, goodbye. - she left the car -

Narrator: Leandro stayed parked in front of Alexa's house for a while, processing everything that had happened - he hit the steering wheel in frustration - How did I fall into your trap, Alexa!!! I shouldn't have signed that damn agreement 😠

Leandro: 📱calling Steven

Steven: 📱It's becoming a habit for you to call me so late, don't you think, dear?

Leandro: 📱I'm on my way to your house... You damn hypocrite.

Steven: 📱Hey!! Why the insult?

Leandro: 📱Then explain to me why you didn't tell me that Alexa wasn't the ugly duckling I thought she was?

Steven 📱just laughed Well, you can come, I'll be waiting with some drinks because I suppose now that you can't have that woman in your bed, you'll need it.

Leandro: 📱Idiot!

A few minutes passed and Leandro arrived at Steven's house.

Steven: -Opens the door- Brother!! Come in 😁

Leandro: What brother?? Why didn't you tell me, Steven?

Steven: I did tell you, several times actually, but you ignored me as always and then you go and tell her to fix herself up so beautifully... asshhh see, that's what happens when you don't listen to me!! 😅😅
