RECAP
After finding out about Miguel in the video, Christian confronted him but of course, our Iron rose is always a step ahead of everyone. But the situation made Miguel confess his painful past to Christian and he thought their relationship was gonna get stronger but Miguel had found out that Christian didn't trust him and it had hurt him terribly. He had left Christian's house and we have no idea what is going to happen. Carter had saved Miguel, literally and he had gotten on his good side, not knowing that Christian is jealous of him.
Brandon had met with the third rapist but due to his love for Christian, he had failed to attend to it. Now Brandon has given Miguel an ultimatum. Will he choose his love for Christian or will he choose his revenge? Iron rose continues.

"What are you saying?" Miguel chuckled, shaking his head. "How can you even think of asking me something like that?"
"Of course," Brandon gave an angry sigh. "It wasn't good for you to leave me and the colonel hanging the previous night."
"Okay, Brandon..."
"The man was really pissed. You should have seen his face." He growled, clenching his fists. "You made me look like a fool in front of that idiot. I tried everything that I could to make him understand but he was way to mad to listen to anything that I was telling him. That fool embarrassed me in front of all the people in that restaurant."
When Brandon raised his face, he got the surprise of his life when he saw Miguel busy looking at his phone. He was pissed, mad at Miguel for doing that. Miguel was looking at his phone, trying to see if at all he was gonna reply to his call.
"Miguel!" Brandon called his name loudly but still nothing. He was too engrossed in his phone. "Hey!" He snapped his finger, groaning angrily. He couldn't believe that.
Brandon called Miguel's name severally before he actually came back to reality and stared at him. Miguel looked at Brandon and gave a sigh of relief, putting the phone on the couch.
"What did you say to that monkey?"
Brandon was mad that Miguel was ignoring him. If not for one thing then he would have left that place a long time ago and if it was someone else he would have beaten the living daylight out of him but Miguel was really different and that was his luck.
"Enough to make him interested." He said with an evil grin.
"That's fine." Miguel said with a serious face. "I will go to him this very night and surprise him."
Hearing what Miguel had just said, an evil grin appeared on Brandon's face. "That's good. I bet that bastard will never know what hit him."
Brandon was really excited that their revenge plans were still on. He couldn't have been happier. The bastards needed to pay for their crimes.
It wasn't long before Alejandro arrived and they knew that they had to stop talking about his rape and his revenge. Alejandro might have been in on many things but he definitely had no idea about Miguel's past. The less people that knew the better and safer it was for Miguel and the smoother his plan was gonna run.
They just dropped the topic and continued talking about what they were gonna do with the position that was now left by Felix. They felt they needed to replace it with someone that would be useful to them.

"Oh my God!" Yvette gasped, looking at all the clothes that Carter had just shown her. They were just too beautiful and really expensive. "Are you telling me that Miguel Powers gave you all these clothes?"
"Yes!" Carter nodded, looking at his mother with a smile. "He gave me all these wonderful set of clothes. Aren't they beautiful?"
"They are beautiful but..."
"He is a really good man." Carter said with a smile. "He even told me that I could keep the money he had given me at the company."
"No!" Yvette sounded really worried. She was shocked that someone who had evicted poor people just to construct his building would be like that. It was impossible. "I know honey that you think this guy is really kind but I think that he only gave you these things because you saved him from those crooks. Don't be too attached to him because he might just hurt you. You know that he is La don right?"
"Yes!" Carter answered, trying to get what his mother was trying to tell him.
"You have heard how powerful he is and he is very young yet there are some rumors flying around that he deals with dangerous people. He can hurt you and I am scared of the relationship you are having with him." Yvette didn't want anything to happen to Carter and hence the reason she was scared.
"No!" Carter shook his head, rubbing on his mother's cheeks. "I think that Miguel is really so cool and kind. Those are just rumors and you said it yourself..." he chuckled, trying to make his mother feel better. "...he is very young and cannot hurt anyone. I am sure of it."
Carter was also sure about one thing and though he had forgotten about it, he was now sure about it and his pain came back. He felt really hurt and foolish but he tried to be calm. It had just hit him that Miguel hadn't been coming from his construction site, he had been coming from Christian's house and they had spent the night together. They had probably... He didn't even want to think about it but he felt really terrible. Had Miguel been coming from that construction site then he wouldn't have used that route.
Yvette could see that her son was thinking about something and it got her worried.
"Son..."
Carter looked at his mother and did his best to smile. "I am fine mother but Miguel is not that type of person." He might have been dating his Christian but he was really nice.
"But rich..."
"Not all rich men are evil, mother." Carter gave a sigh of relief. "Some of them like Miguel just likes helping out poor people like me. There is nothing wrong with that."
"Guess you are right?" Yvette sighed, remembering how generous her brother had been years ago. It brought her grief and sorrow but she couldn't cry in front of Carter. "He might just be good but don't get too attached to him. You might just get yourself into trouble."
Carter smiled brightly at his mother, holding her tightly. "I won't, mom." And not with what he had come to realize.
He couldn't just see Christian and Miguel together and be happy. It was gonna hurt him terribly. What was he gonna do about it?

"Okay, fine... you know exactly what we discussed." Miguel said to Alejandro. They had just finished discussing their plans. "Make sure the secretary knows that if he defies us then he can forget about my money and influence." His voice was full of warning.
"I am more than happy to do that, Miguel." Alejandro gave an evil grin. "You shouldn't worry about it, alright?"
"Okay. You may leave now."
Alejandro got up from the couch and left Miguel and Brandon all alone. Miguel looked at Brandon and the man still had an evil grin on his face. Miguel knew what exactly was on Brandon's mind and he wasn't gonna ask.
"Anyway," Brandon yawned, getting up from the couch. "Now that he has left and before I leave, I would love to know if you are really going to see Alvarado or it was all just..."
"Are you doubting me?" Miguel raised his eyebrows, getting up from the couch. "I have already made up my mind and nothing is gonna change that." he chuckled manically. "But I want you to check his schedule and tell me when I can surprise the bastard."
Brandon grinned like an evil man that he was, shaking his head. He really loved Miguel's guts because he wasn't gonna change his mind. He trusted him to deal with the bastard and finally kill him.
Brandon promised Miguel he would call him and then left. Miguel remained in the room and just looked around, trying to think about his plans without Christian getting to him. He wanted everything to go smoothly without any problems and difficulties.
He took a deep sigh and just when he was about to leave, he checked his phone and found that there were about 54 missed calls all from Christian. He had started calling when they were discussing their plans and was still calling. He was really mad at Christian and he felt foolish. Christian had probably used him but maybe it was time to answer his call.
"Hello!" he said with seriousness in his voice.
"Hey!" Christian on the other end felt like he was able to breathe after many hours. "Miguel..."
"What?" Miguel said harshly, rolling his eyes.
"I want to see you, please." He begged, trying to control his breath. "Please, I have been calling you for..."
"I know you have been calling severally..." He groaned, gripping the phone harder. "...I saw your calls but I was very busy."
Now Christian was sure that something was definitely not right. After what he had gone through just to get Miguel to accept him, he screwed it all up for something stupid. He didn't want Miguel to be hurt or be mad at him for long.
"Please, Miguel..." Christian gulped. "...my love, I really need to see you. Where are you right now?"
Miguel was definitely pissed and he wanted to cut Christian's call but deep down something was burning, yearning for Christian. He couldn't do that to him because he truly loved him and didn't want to make him feel bad.
"I am home and..."
"I need to come there and see you."
