Noel Decides To Move On With Kristine. Alejandra Is Compelled To Take Action After Ronaldo Acknowledges His Illegitimate Daughter. Kristine Operates On Joyce.
Kristine hurried over to Noel’s side and helped him out after he was beaten up. She took him to his house and attended to him. Noel started hallucinating about Joyce while Kristine was wiping his face and he apologized to Joyce for not keeping her memory alive. He said he really liked Kristine but he was afraid that if he fell for her he would lose her just like he had lost Joyce.
When Noel woke up in the morning, he did not remember how he had gotten home so his father filled him in. He asked him to let go of Joyce’s memory and move on with Kristine. Kristine was still taking care of Joyce at the hospital and she decided to do a procedure to remove her scars to see if her trauma would subside.
When she met up with Ronaldo, he agreed to pay for Joyce’s operation to repay her for saving his daughter. Some women saw Ronaldo and Kristine and went to say hello and Ronaldo introduced Kristine as his daughter.
One of the women went to tell Alejandra about Ronaldo’s boldness in acknowledging his illegitimate daughter and asked her to watch out. Alejandra had an argument with Ronaldo about Kristine but Ronaldo told her that he was proud of his daughter and he was not going to hide her any longer.
Since Alejandra was worried about Kristine and her campaign, her mother advised her to make Kristine her ally. Meanwhile, Noel went to see Kristine at the hospital and Kristine’s friend said she would fake a headache so that Noel and Kristine could have some time alone.
As Noel and Kristine were leaving, Joyce saw them and recognised Noel so she ran after them, saying “my løvë”. Unfortunately, she did not catch up with them but instead ran into Lawrence who was at the hospital looking for Kristine. Lawrence was told that Kristine had just left and since he was wearing the same shirt as Noel, Joyce mistook him for Noel and went to embrace him.
Lawrence was very calm and held Joyce as the nurses came to take her away. Noel took Joyce to a park where there were fireworks and he told her that he was in løvë with her and wanted to move on from Joyce. They talked and agreed to be together.
Later, Alejandra and Lawrence went to the hospital to offer their foundation’s support for Lea’s (Joyce) operation which was Alejandra’s way to make peace with Kristine. They went in to see Lea (Joyce) whom Lawrence recognized and was very nice and gentle with her. Alejandra however was taken aback by Joyce’s burn scars and her reaction scared Joyce.
There was a commotion which led to Alejandra’s foot getting burned when a pot of hot water spilled on her. She became extremely angry with Joyce and almost withdrew her support for Joyce’s operation but Lawrence asked her not to overreact because Joyce was mentally unstable and did not wish to harm her.
His support was admirable to Kristine who is hoping to have a relationship with her brother. Ronaldo went to see Kristine at her home but she had already left. He helped out Lourdes with a pan that had caught on fire after which they got to talking and decided to be friends.
Kristine finally operated on Joyce to remove the burn scars and even brought Shakira some clean clothes so that he could clean up and go see Joyce as she recovered. Eventually, Kristine removed the bandages on Joyce’s face as Ronaldo observed.Read Next Episode on Beautiful Strangers Episode 9
