"Daniela, have you lost your mind? Of all places, why did you have to kill Hannah in Riverton?" Donny stormed into the room, his eyes hard and fierce, a far cry from his usual tenderness. It was as if he had become a different person.
"Do you think you can just run wild in Riverton?" Steven was already giving the Salazar family a hard time, and now this foolish woman had gone and provoked Jeremy from Riverton. That was Marcus, a man everyone feared. Just because he changed his name, didn't mean he changed his nature.
Even though she knew things would end up like this, Daniela couldn't help but feel heartbroken. "Every day Hannah lives, it's like there’s a thorn in my heart. I don't care where she is, I will do anything to kill her."
"You're insane!" Furious, Donny slapped Daniela hard on the face. "From now on, you're not allowed to leave the house."
Daniela, covering her slapped face, stared coldly at Donny. "You slapped me! You actually slapped me..."
After all, she was his beloved little sister. If it weren't for the circumstances, Donny would never be so harsh. "As long as you stop causing trouble for me and Dad, you are still our beloved girl."d2
Daniela wasn't listening. She was muttering to herself, "You slapped me! Donny, you slapped me for that lowly actress."
Donny asked, "Daniela, are you even listening to me?"
Daniela laughed maniacally. "I knew it. Your love for me was a sham... I always knew, but I still had a glimmer of hope that when my interests clashed with yours, you would choose me. Turns out, I was just too naive..."
But Daniela slapped Florrie on the face. "Who do you think you are? When did it become your place to interfere in the my family's business?"
Daniela's slap was hard, and it left Florrie's head ringing for a while. She touched her stinging face, staring pitifully at Donny, the man she had be with for so many years, hoping he would stand up for her. "Donny, what did I do wrong?"
Florrie's pitiful look would soften any man's heart, but between his sister and Florrie, Donny chose his sister. "You know how Daniela can be. Once she calms down, everything will be fine."
Even though it was Daniela who hit Florrie, Donny defended Daniela.
