The fisherman saved a boy from the pond. But when he saw the pendant on the boy's neck...

guo was happy when he married canuela she brought an endless flow of smiles and joy into his life beautiful kind and compassionate she was a dream not just a woman they loved each other as they often write about in books but life alas is not a story written by an author when Kela became pregnant guo faced challenges the pregnancy was difficult and his wife had to quit her job to avoid harming the baby Dio tried his best supporting Consuela and they eagerly awaited the new addition to the family both he and his wife wanted children very much and often discussed what they would name them but when it came time to give birth everything turned upside down the delivery was very long and extremely difficult the baby was positioned incorrectly and doctors had to assist the mother however as soon as the baby was born the doctors immediately turned their attention to his mother she had internal bief in while guo paced nervously in the corridor awaiting news the doctors fought for the life of his beloved wife the operation lasted almost 8 hours but in the end the woman's heart could not withstand the strain that followed the difficult child birth and consua passed away the day that was supposed to be a celebration for their family was overshadowed by the death of guo's Lifelong Love when they showed the daughter to the father a tiny bundle lying in the crib among other vulnerable newborns in the ward the man burst into tears the baby didn't yet know she had lost her mother and the only one left for her was her father who felt Despair and immense sadness after losing his wife while the baby was still in the hospital she was helped not only by a nurses but also by several other mothers who learned of the girl's difficult fate the Maternity Ward was filled with kind Souls who held the girl giving her what she lacked her mother's touch the warmth of her body and the much needed milk immensely grateful to these kind women guo couldn't grieve for long he had to think about what to do next now that he was completely alone with his daughter he named the baby as Consuelo wanted to name their daughter and the girl became Luca his workplace understood the situation and GMO was granted a short leave to arrange his wife's funeral during the few days when he dealt with organizational matters he cried for his wife many times and despaired however each time he count down remembering the vulnerable bundle waiting for him in the hospital the child was an innocent Soul whom he now had to take care of and he had to do it if only for the memory of his deceased wife he had to pull himself together and become a worthy parent to their child after the funeral where Dio heard many kind words and Wishes the man returned to work with a heavy heart not delaying the difficult conversation with his boss Antonio Torres was a man of old school toughness strict Stern but fair that's why despite many subordinates fearing him Dio respected this man that's the thing Antonio frowned listening to his subordinate story about being left alone with a child in his arms I understand how this might sound however I can offer you a decent solution to this situation usually maternity leave is taken by women for obvious reasons but our company's policies do not prohibit men from taking such leave I didn't know guo admitted honestly unfortunately such leave is hardly paid Antonio interrupted the subordinate's surprised exclamation however Dio I also understand that if women have husbands who can support them during this time you have no one so here's my proposal you take maternity leave but continue working from home some of the work you can do remotely and I am willing to provide you with the opportunity to work so that your child doesn't go hungry Antonio you have no idea how much this will help guo was ready to fall to his knees before his boss to thank him I'll give you as much time as you need you're a diligent reliable worker and I wouldn't want to lose you because of life's twists and turns and your daughter is not at fault in any of this she needs to eat so don't worry about the money I'll discuss all this with the department and we'll arrange tasks so that everything you can do remotely will be sent to you but remember one thing the little one also needs time and care of course guo grabbed his boss's outstretched hand squeezing it firmly I won't forget this Antonio the boss simply nodded in response since then GMO rarely appeared in the office unless absolutely necessary fortunately he very rarely attended meetings and some could be conducted participating by phone or video call as soon as guo took Luc from the maternity ward he realized how difficult it was with a newborn in his arms he was torn between many tasks encountering new problems all the time he never imagined before how hard it was to take care of children and his little girl turned out to be restless as soon as he tried to feed her with formula she would start fussing and spitting it out so he started going to the milk kitchen every day to ensure his daughter always had something to eat leaving formula for the most extreme cases for 3 months He adjusted to the fact that the child constantly demanded attention combining caring for the little one with work which he always tried to do when the sleeping daughter fell silent in her Cradle lulled by her father that day everything went wrong guo was late for the milk kitchen and there was nothing to feed lucido with except formula which the girl didn't like for several hours the man tried to feed his daughter but she whimpered and wouldn't eat being capricious and G Mo struggled to hold back tears how did women manage all this suddenly there was a knock on the door and the man wiped the tears that had welled up in his eyes before opening it standing at the threshold with her hands on her hips was his neighbor Mariela the man knew that she had recently given birth too and the stern expression on the woman's face made him feel ashamed his daughter must have woken up her baby Dio The the woman nodded to the man who was rocking his whimpering daughter Mariela I'm sorry lucita the woman raised her hand cutting off his words and shook her head here's the thing neighbor I hear your little one crying almost every day it's because of the formula she doesn't like it the widower tried to justify himself great the woman's gaze brightened so we can help each other guo frowned in Surprise help as you already know I gave birth to a son Mariel stepped closer looking at the girl in his arms and unfortunately I have too much milk I have nowhere to put it pouring expressed milk down the drain breaks my heart and your daughter needs milk I won't take no for an answer I can't listen to your child Cryer with a calm heart guo almost cried although the woman spoke sternly he was immensely grateful for her her kindness and offering to help the single father who had already begun to despair thus began the friendship and mutual assistance between neighbors Mariela and guo the woman not only provided the man with excess milk but also took his daughter in when he needed to go somewhere in return the man started going to the store for groceries for the woman she would give him a list and he would leave his daughter with her to shop not only for himself but also for her undoubtedly Mariela was an angel sent by God himself to help guo and in return he tried to help her too sometimes the woman needed rest and fresh air so guo would take the children and Mariela could take a stroll without worrying about the child being unsupervised months passed the child gradually grew and guo began to realize that even with part-time work he was running short of money children's things were expensive and the little girls seemed to be growing not by days but by hours and marela came to his rescue again offering to watch the girl if he decided to switch to a part-time job in the office Deo was grateful to his neighbor for such a generous offer although he doubted it at first don't worry GMO Luci is just an angel when she's not forced to drink formula it's not difficult for me and you can be assured that she's in good and caring hands while you're at work Mariela replied to his doubts smiling and my son has become C when she's around like a little brother thus began their further cooperation guo went to work leaving his daughter with Mariela for the first half of the day and then he would pick her up continuing to work from home years passed lucita and Mariella's son Dante started kindergarten Dio and Mariela arranged it so they took turns taking the children to and from kindergarten together the neighbor helped the man get closer to his daughter and he gradually learned from Mariela how to braid his daughter's hair or tie ponytails pick out dresses and shoes that delighted lucita Mariel's husband waen initially wary of his wife's relationship with the neighbor soon realized that his kind-hearted Mariela had simply befriended the widower to help him with his daughter about whom the man knew almost nothing about caring he didn't feel jealous even when they went out together with the children to the park on weekends and enjoyed watching Dante and Luca play together as if they were brother and sister for waen it was no longer surprising to come home to find men's shoes in the hallway and GMO and marela sitting at the table chatting over a cup of tea while the children played around and he understood perfectly well that his wife needed a friend after they moved to the city she hadn't made friends with anyone and when she got pregnant she spent too much time preparing for the arrival of their firstborn and GMO who had helped them so much after the birth of their son while waen was at work became a real friend to marel ready to help out when her husband wasn't home before the birth of their son waen often saw his wife sad with a ball of yarn she often knitted distracting herself from loneliness while her difficult pregnancy kept her at home and as soon as she offered help to the neighbor she cheered up and smiled more often for this W was grateful to guo who himself needed friendly interaction after his wife's death years P the children grew up having become such close friends like brother and sister they didn't stop being friends even after they started school and even in the same class finally guo resumed working as before returning to full-time hours moreover an agreement with the neighbors allowed him to return to his long abandoned hobby guo retrieved the almost forgotten fishing rods and tackle boxes once given to him by Consuela and began to occasionally go fishing those days spent in silence and Tranquility helped guo restore his mental balance he realized how incredibly lucky he was in life even though a cruel twist of fate took away his dearly beloved wife that same day he gained a daughter whom he loved with all his heart with each passing day he saw more of his wife reflected in Luca the girl grew beautiful and her father bitterly realized what that could mean in the future he was right at 12 Luca reached adolescence bringing a new dose of chaos into their lives which guo feared the gap between father and daughter widened and he dreaded the thought of his little girls soon starting to attract the attention of boys who would surely not fail to notice such a beauty with her thick wavy hair the color of Raven wings and big brown eyes on her delicate face Mariela helped yo as much as she could but Dimo had to deal with his daughter's sudden mood swings and new whims one morning barely awake Deo Was preparing breakfast contemplating whether he should send Luca to school on a full stomach before he himself went to work but a sudden cry from his daughter's bedroom filled him with such horror as if he had been struck by an electric shock rushing to his daughter fearing that something irreversible might have happened he burst into the room to find Luca tearing the sheets off the bed sobbing uncontrollably the Panic man noticed a blood stain on the sheet and the sweater tied around the girl hips lucita what happened guo caught his daughter embracing her she cried trembling in his arms unable to calm down enough to tell her father what had happened he didn't press her for details already suspecting what had occurred he tried to calm himself as well if his suspicions were correct he faced a very difficult conversation with his daughter while comforting Luc he managed to send a message to the girl school and his workplace informing them that they would likely both be late to start the day he also sent a message to Mariel but did not specify the reasons only stating that lucdo was unwell finally the girl stopped crying and guo heard her trembling voice Dad I think I'm dying lucita sobbed my dear I'm sure that's not the case her father replied patting her shoulder but I'm bleeding and I can't stop it with a heavy heart the man tried to explain to his daughter that everything happening to her was a normal thing for any woman he tried to tell her everything he knew recalling what he had been taught in Biology class at school about human anatomy and what he had learned while living with canuela Luc listened attentively though she could see the embarrassment on his face it was awkward for him to discuss all this with her I'm sure Aunt Mariela can tell you more about what to do in these situations I'm sorry yo finally concluded the conversation as if by Fate just at that moment Mariela appeared at their apartment door the woman having sent her son to school immediately came to help her neighbor with luc's illness Aunt Mariela the girl rushed to the woman embracing her and bursting into tears again Mariela gently patted the girl's back meeting guo's gaze and he side Mariela please help me again Luca she started her period I told her everything I knew but you know Mariel's face lit up with a white smile she had already started to worry that something serious had happened but then such news oh sweetheart the woman leaned in towards the girl wiping away the tears from her face come with me today will be your day no school no worries I'll help you with everything you need Deo she looked at the man and he nodded grateful that his neighbor was such a kind and caring woman for a single father this was truly a stroke of luck Luca don't worry about school today he said to his daughter I'll call them and let them know you won't be coming marela will help you with everything else and although guo handled the day with dignity the gap between him and his daughter grew wider over time the father struggled trying to raise a teenageer Luca began to transform into a beautiful young woman and the man started to look suspiciously at her increasingly shorter skirts and gradually emerging light makeup luckily Mariela continued to help the man often taking the girl with her when she went shopping for clothes and cosmetics she even taught lucita how to apply makeup to make it neither vulgar nor too provocative it was precisely the lack of knowledge on such matters that made GMO an enemy in the eyes of the teenage girl conflicts began to arise and everything her father said was taken the wrong Wave by lucita who often slammed the door to her room by the time Luca turned 16 the conflicts had reached their Peak the girl often yelled at her father through tantrums and increasingly tried to act like an adult and be independent Deo remembered the chubby little girl he used to spoil when she was small and he felt a creeping sense of Despair Luca was growing up and was no longer the little girl who asked him to braid her hair and help her pick out a dress and shoes for the first day of school following mariela's advice GMO backed off slightly stopping trying to force his company on her it didn't change much but Luca yelled at her father less and he saw it as a good sign on weekends the man still went fishing it helped him clear his mind and gather strength for the new work week and the emerging disputes with his daughter however despite guo starting to give his daughter some Freedom she grew further and further away from him until one day he returned home to find the apartment completely empty Luca's room was vacant as was her school backpack although her books and notebooks were scattered on her desk Luca didn't answer calls messages remained unread and by morning the worried guo discovered that his daughter's phone was turned off nervously he went to work without sleep spending the whole day in a days constantly reaching for his phone and trying to call his daughter Dio became increasingly worried what if something had happened so as soon as he finished work he immediately headed home and not finding lucita again decided not to waste time and went to the police station the law enforcement officers listened to him but reluctantly filled out the paperwork saying that his daughter probably just went out with friends and her phone died listening to all these excuses GMO realized with horror that the officer ERS didn't see the problem at all his daughter his only daughter was missing and they didn't even intend to look for her from that day on his life became a kind of nightmare he would wake up reaching for his phone and trying to reach his daughter but her phone was still off diverting him to voicemail he would go to work still hoping that returning home would find Luca in a room just as disobedient and capricious resenting her father for talking to her he would return to the empty now uncomfortable apartment he would call the police station asking if they had found his daughter but it was all in vain on the first weekend after Luca's disappearance for the first time in a long time he didn't go fishing and spent those days alone sometimes breaking into tears sometimes soothing himself with the thought that Luc could show up at any moment the second weekend became so unbearable that on Sunday he grabbed his gear and went fishing just to distract himself from the dark thoughts swirling in his head I'll be back and lucdo will be home he whispered Like a Prayer while sitting on the Pond's bank but upon his return he still didn't find his daughter so he took time off from work and went back to the police station this time he wasn't just nervous he was furious with shouts and pleas he forced the officers to listen to him again he retold everything over and over first to the desk sergeant then to another officer this second one turned out to be more thoughtful and took guo seriously it was then that luc's missing person case was finally opened they kept him at the station for hours as he gave descriptions of his daughter what she might be wearing which friend she might turn to he didn't leave until evening exhausted and drained but with a sense of assurance that now the police would truly search for his daughter yet another week passed with no news then another and another but Luca remained missing guo despaired of finding his daughter though he still called the police to inquire about any progress at first he did this weekly then the calls became less frequent once a month once every two months and so two years went by during this time guo lost weight grew thinner and older as the worries about his missing daughter took their toll if it hadn't been for Mariela and Dante who regular regly visited him in the evenings he might have given up entirely but his kind neighbors helped him hang on and made sure he didn't go hungry you'll see guo marelo would always reassure him Lucio will come back and you'll be back to guessing how to please that little devil guo tried to smile though he no longer truly believed that his daughter would be found but the hope with which Dante and his mother spoke of it kept a tiny flame of belief in him that someday he would return home and lucido would be there grownup wiser still as beloved as she was before despite all her whims and arguments on that Saturday guo took his place on the bank of a large pond which always held a special place in his heart it was the same Pond where he used to picnic with Consuela while his wife was still alive and although he still regularly visited consuela's grave it was in this place that he felt a special connection to his deceased wife fishing was not going well Deo kept thinking about his missing daughter and it constantly distracted him from watching the float finally giving up he put down his fishing rod and simply sat on the bank pondering what could have happened to his daughter and praying to God that Luca would be found even after such a long time he still believed that his daughter would return to him he didn't immediately hear the noise coming from somewhere nearby but when he finally turned around he noticed a very young boy struggling in the water the boy wasn't screaming trying with all his mic to stay above the water's surface but the Panic on his face was evident enough for GMO to realize immediately that he was drowning without a second thought the Man rushed into the pond reaching the boy was not difficult for GMO however it took some effort to grab the panicking child he thrashed and resisted as if not comprehending that someone was trying to save him but eventually the man pulled the boy onto the shore where he found that despite swallowing water he was relatively okay the frightened child barely 11 years old struggled to catch his breath and regain composure for a long while and while guo comforted the boy he suddenly noticed a pendant around the child's neck which shocked him he looked at the simple silver pendant shaped like a very small Arrowhead and couldn't believe his eyes it was the pendant he had ordered from the Jeweler for his daughter Dio was certain it was Luca's ornament he had spent hours with the Jeweler creating a unique pattern on the facets of this Arrowhead though the pendant seemed simple the patterns were unmistakable within the seemingly wavy lines were hidden birds and leaves creating a pattern reminiscent of Damascus steel what's your name boy guo finally found his voice Javier the man hesitated choosing his words carefully beautiful pendant where did you get it from Dad gave gave it to me although guo wanted to ask more at that moment a group of boys approached led by an older boy apparently the older brother of one of the Rascals they surrounded Javier asking if he was okay and the eldest turned to guo thank you we lost sight of him and you were there at the right moment oh it's nothing I was just fishing by the shore and saw the drowning child what kind of person would I be if I allowed him to drown GMO bursted off regretting that he couldn't inquire more about the rescued boy and the pendant the teenagers thanked the man for a long time and when they left Guided by the older brother of one of them the fisherman sat on the shore for a long time pondering that he couldn't be mistaken the pendant undoubtedly belonged to lucita perhaps she lost it or sold it to earn some money to buy a ticket somewhere guo didn't know what to do with these conjectures deep in thought he went home the visiting neighbors found the man in such a gloomy state that they tried to find out what had happened why guo was so despondent did the police finally find lucita and the News was not at all cheerful but guo remained silent lost in thought and Mariel and Dante left without disturbing him the evening of the next day the man decided to visit his friend but when she opened the door he saw that she was nervous Mar what's wrong guo immediately forgot the reason for his visit oh it's my husband something happened at work but I still haven't understood what exactly come in maybe he can tell you what's bothering him he's not himself the woman invited him inside already at the kitchen table guo gratefully accepted a cup of fresh coffee and saw Mariel's husband sitting lost in thought you know our boss the owner of the factory is looking for for someone Juan spoke looking bewildered guo frowned looking for whom they say someone saved his son from drowning in a pond some fishermen apparently the man Shrugged and now my boss wants our entire department to find this savior probably wants to reward him I don't know there was something about the way the speaker delivered all this that didn't sit right with guo it seemed like such news should have been interesting to the man but for some reason he was tense and spoke reluctantly guo knew that waen had been working at the factory for years and he understood that his superiors could easily appoint a bonus to whoever found The Rescuer was that the reason Wen was so tense darling why are you so dejected Mariela his wife attempted to support him listen Walken side GMO I don't know why you're so sad but I came by to apologize to marel and Dante for yesterday when they visited me I wasn't in the mood and all because the day before I saved a boy from the pond while fishing it threw me off so much that hold on waen looked at his neighbor are you saying you saved the boy yeah just happened to be in the right place at the right time waen grabbed his phone and hastily typed a very long message to someone only when it was sent did relax here's the thing neighbor he exhaled I know for you it's probably nothing but wen's phone pinged with a notification and he read the received message his face lit up with a smile guo my friend the factory manager wants to see you personally to thank you for saving his son GMO pondered but realized that meeting the father of the rescued boy might provide him with answers to some questions so he didn't resist and gave waim permission to arrange the meeting which waim was delighted about evidently he was indeed expecting a reward for finding the rescuer a few days later GMO arrived at the address Wen had given him and was surprised to see a large luxurious mansion where he was immediately allowed entry parking his car he stood for a while looking at the Mansion unsure of what to think although Javier the father of the boy had invited him G Mo felt heavy-hearted he still harbored the same questions that troubled him on the day he saved the boy from the pond and saw the locket around his neck which he had previously seen on his daughter as soon as the doors opened Deo saw a tall imposing man who was smiling widely at his guest so you're the one who saved my son a firm handshake turned into a hug in an instant taken aback by what was happening Deo didn't resist understanding perfectly well that the boy parents simply couldn't contain his Joy at finally seeing his offsprings rescuer oh come on Dio tried to deflect no no no you're a hero at least in my eyes Javier told me everything straight you saved my son that means a lot to me come in come in let's have a drink and celebrate the fact that there are still decent people in the world guo was practically pulled inside and almost immediately handed a glass of fragrant expensive drink the man didn't beat around the bush for long and slightly tensing up asked I couldn't help but noticed the wonderful locket around the boy's neck where did he get it from there was something about the change in the demeanor of the factory owner that didn't sit right with guo he seemed to tense almost instantly as if getting nervous and jerked his head the locket I think I found it somewhere at a flea market when I was out on errands maybe you can remember where exactly listen hero forget about the locket we're celebrating the rescue of my son the man tried to change the subject we should thank the Lord that you were there on the shore and happened to be at the right time in the right place yes that's true it's just what's your interest in this trinket the abrupt change in tone to a more angry one revealed that the factory owner was trying to hide something guo side setting aside his drink and shook his head realizing he wouldn't be able to uncover everything he desired something was off and he didn't like being in this Mansion at all I won't waste your time guo turned and walked away the mansion's owner shouted something after him trying to call him back but Deo wasn't listening leaving the opulent yet inhospitable place where he had hoped to find answers to his question question s only to encounter suspicions and the odd behavior of the host disappointed by the wasted time guo had almost reached his car when the boy he had rescued caught up to him Mister the boy called out as he approached Mister please wait Dio sighed but turned to the child forcing a smile hello Javier how are you feeling better I the boy glanced over his shoulder and lowered his voice as if afraid of being overheard I need to talk to you the man frowned seeing the seriousness and determination in the boy's eyes when the boy gestured for him to bend closer guo didn't object but as the child began to whisper the man almost staggered the boy was telling him that his beloved father wasn't a good person at all Javier recounted to the man that there were many people at his father's Factory who worked there against their will the boy had seen them emaciated miserable living in the same place in the sheds and horrifying conditions at first it was hard to believe but the boy spoke so quickly coherently and with such detail That guo Couldn't doubt the child was undoubtedly telling the truth when Javier finished his tale he looked hopefully at GMO I love my father with all my heart but I can't keep this secret anymore these people they have families loved ones and this pinned it the boy raised a trinket dad gave it to me after visiting the factory you know him right yes guo breathed barely managing to control his voice I know him so someone you know among those poor souls guo glanced towards the Mansion his thoughts swirling here's the thing Javier you want to help these people your father keep keeps in the factory don't you yes the boy nodded then meet me tomorrow at noon near the police station guo saw the boy nod again promise I promise Javier attempted to remove the pendant and give it to guo but he shook his head you'll give it to me when we find my daughter all right the boy hugged the pendant to his chest and nodded I'll help you find her mister I promise leaving the Mansion grounds guo felt genuine hope for the first time in a while the boy's words not only horrified him but also allowed his heart to feel Warth again to feel The Thirst to know was his daughter really at that factory the next day he eagerly awaited Javier at the police station's doors though he didn't wait long he began to fret and doubt what if the boy got scared and didn't come but contrary to all his doubts he suddenly saw the child riding his bicycle heading straight for him the same collected and confident expression on his face without wasting time they both entered the station and GMO demanded to see the officer in charge of his missing daughter's case they had to wait nearly an hour and when they were finally ushered into a separate office Theo saw a weary police officer who clearly didn't want to face another desperate parent only to informed them that there had been no progress in the case however this time the conversation with the the law enforcement officer took a different turn guo told the policeman everything he had learned from Javier about how the boy's father kept people locked up and forced them to work in inhumane conditions the officer listened with a skeptical expression as if not believing a single word but then Javier stepped forward and pulled out a pendant from under his collar look I got this pendant from my father he gave it to me after visiting his workplace I saw everything with my own eyes the officer frowned and examined the pendant shown by the child look at the photos of my daughter that I gave you it's the same pendant I had it custom made there are no others like it anywhere confirmed guo the policeman took out his daughter's case File and found several photos provided by the girl's father at the beginning of the investigation in all these photos Luca was smiling and the pendant gleamed on her neck undoubtedly the same one Javier was wearing now tensing up the policeman pondered for a long moment then became serious and composed so I see he exhaled Javier please tell me again what exactly you saw at your father's Factory the boy understood that they finally believed him and without hesitation he recounted everything he knew he remembered the box of documents he saw in one of the offices when he accompanied his his father around the factory and the exhausted workers who seemed worn out and sick from work and everything else including the dirty mattresses he noticed barely hidden behind the partially Open Door of one of the utility rooms the officer listened to the boy jotting something down in his notepad and when he finished asking clarifying questions he put down his pen and looked GMO in the eyes well we have a lot to do I'll be in touch but don't worry if if your daughter is there we'll get her out reassured the policeman but right now I need to process all the necessary paperwork so my colleagues can enter the factory the police acted swiftly a search warrant was obtained in record time and the subsequent raid on the factory caught everyone working there off guard everyone who had helped Javier's father illegally detained workers was arrested including hin who was also aware of what was happening documents and personal belongings confiscated from the workers were discovered as were the rooms where they were held and the victims themselves who were so exhausted and sick that most of them had to be transported by ambulance the case made headlines the victims of the factory owner included women and men of all ages both locals reported missing and newcomers from other cities and districts among them was Luca who had disappeared 2 years ago foolishly and boldly running away from home from her caring father while the Vic victims were being treated for horrific injuries on their hands due to constant work on the machines and beatings received during their captivity the police gradually interviewed them the victim's testimonies combined with all the evidence found on the factory premises were sufficient for the court to sentence the owner and his accomplices to several years in prison after her father was sent Behind Bars Javier stayed with his mother a woman who had long suspected her husband of dirty dealings honestly admitted in court everything she had suspected when her husband was imprisoned she didn't hesitate to file for divorce as she didn't want anything to do with a man who resorted to slave labor the money received after the divorce the woman didn't spend although it could have been enough for her and her son's life until the end of their days moving to another city she enrolled Javier in a private school and did everything in her power to ensure the boy never became like his father meanwhile guo reunited with his daughter rejoiced every time he visited the girl in the hospital and although she like the other victims underwent long treatment she continued to cry every time her father entered her room forgive me Dad and forgive guo heard from her for the hundredth time I was such a fool the man hugged his daughter and stroked her shoulder already rejoicing that after 2 years he finally managed to find lucita it took the girl several weeks to recover from the horrible years spent in the factory and although she used to scream at her father refusing to listen now she reached out to him and cried tears of happiness every time he hugged her I missed you so much Dad she whispered to him and I missed you daughter I missed you so much GMO replied forgive me for running away for yelling at you for thinking that living with you was hell I was so wrong Sho it's all right now the main thing is that you've returned don't cry guo didn't know how to comfort his daughter but he remembered how he used to take her to the pond where he used to fish even after her disappearance come on let's go fishing together or have a picnic by the shore of that same Pond where we used to stroll the one where you always talked about Mom the man nodded smiling yes yes that one where we used to have picnics with her let's have a picnic the girl nodded wiping tears from her eyes when Luca was discharged she was greeted not only by her father but also by Mariela and her son Dante both were happy to see the girl return that day they all celebrated as if they were One Big Happy Family the story could have ended with this reunion but life went on and a year later GMO and marel couldn't resist anymore that their friendship turned turned out to be much stronger than they had thought before the woman divorced her husband who ended up in prison on charges of colluding with his bosses who used slave labor half a year later Mariela and guo got married where Luca and Dante became brother and sister the young people entered the same University and ever since Dante has been looking after lucita just as before as like a brother he had long considered himself to be dear viewers if you enjoyed the story please support the video by liking it and leaving a
