Chapter 71 The Story Of This Mother

• “You are not my mother! I don’t want to hear any more filthy words from that mouth of yours! Give me my money, and I’ll be on my way! I have better things to do!” Roberto yelled at Adelina, his hands were shaking, and he tried forcing back the tears that threatened to roll out of his eyes. “Roberto, if you want your money, I have your money ready. I just want you to know the truth before you leave.” She walked back to her desk and opened her drawer. Roberto kept his gun pointed to her, Incase she wanted to act funny.
• Adelina pulled out an album from the drawer and stretched it to Roberto. “After looking at this pictures, you will be able to decide if you still want to kill me or know the true story about your biological mother.” Roberto narrowed his gaze at her, and then at the album. He wasn’t sure what he wanted, but he sure didn’t want to let this opportunity go. He needed to know the whole truth. “Drop it on the table,” He waved his gun, pointing at the table. She bobbed and placed the album on the table. “Step back and raise your hands,” Roberto added, and Adelina sighed. She raised her hand and moved back until she got to the window.
• When Roberto was sure she wasn’t going to do anything stupid, he walked to the table, still pointing the gun at her. He picked up the album and moved back. He placed it on the chair he sat and started opening it. On the first page, he saw his Father, Giovanni next to a familiar woman. He looked at Adelina and saw it was the younger version of her. His father also looked younger in the picture. “When did you take this?” He asked, staring at the picture. “On Easter Sunday. Your grandfather, Mr. Eduardo Galante and your grandmother, Kris Galante left the house for a party. Giovanni and I, one of the maids in the house, had the opportunity to be together. He had a camera at that time, and we took so many pictures that day.”
