THE BETTER HALF Episode 7




We started with Bianca’s mother leaving.

Rafael went to see Camille and found her packing up at the foundation. He asked Camille to forget about the issue and they could run away together. Camille was still upset and Sheryl told him that Helen went to see Camille to give her a prenup agreement.
Rafael went to see Helen and reprimanded her for giving Camille a prenup. Helen mentioned that Camille said it was no longer an issue since they were not getting married and Rafael said that they were not getting married because of her. He told Helen that she had never forgiven her for Veronica’s death but she tried to tell her that it was not true.
Rafael followed Camille home from work and scared her to bits because it was late in the evening. He asked that she listen to him and he told her all about his relationship with Veronica which would explain why his mother was so overprotective of him.
Rafael narrated that he and Veronica were very close and she was the only one who believed in him even when he continued to drink and mess himself up. She was the right minded one, the one who was molded to take over the company but he failed her when she needed him. Her boyfriend had films a sex tape and Veronica was afraid that she would shame her family once it got released so she killed herself instead. Rafael said that his mother had blamed him for not being there for Veronica but Camille said that she now understood why Helen was so protective of him since she did not want him to fall into such a predicament too. Rafael then appealed to her so that they could revive their plans to get married and Camille said that she was afraid of going through the same thing she went through with Marco if ever she lost him. Rafael assured her that he would always be there and Camille agreed to get married again.
They had a civil wedding with only two friends as witnesses. After that, they went to have food at Rafael’s car and he pranked her by telling her that he had a child. Camille was completely in awe but then Rafael burst out laughing. He said that he loved to play pranks and Veronica was the only one who appreciated them. Camille said that she would allow him to play pranks on her but not too often.
Bianca and Marco packed up their stuff and moved to America. Alfredo bought a grocery store for them and gave it to them so that they could run it and build their life there.
Rafael went home to pick up his stuff and move into the condo with Camille. Helen tried to talk to him about staying and he told her that he already married Camille so there was not much else she could do. Helen told Rafael that she did not want them to drift apart so she asked him to live in the house with Camille because it was big enough for all of them.
Helen decided to accept Camille and she went with Luicito and Rafael to see Camille’s family to apologize for their previous misunderstanding. Camille said that all that was behind them and they finally planned a church wedding.
Rafael gave Camille a 20 million peso cheque as a wedding gift for her to build the dream school that she wanted to have. Camille did not want to accept such a huge amount but Rafael said it was an investment and she had to work hard to make the school a success.
Rafael married Camille in front of their family and friends at church and they posted a lot of photos on line.  After the wedding, Luicito and Helen called Rafael and Camille and gave them their wedding gift. Luicito said that they would give the house to them since the two of them would move to another house once they retired. Rafael and Camille accepted in graciously.
Bianca’s baby bump grew as she and Marco set up their life in America. Bianca went through Sheryl’s Facebook feed and was glad to see photos of Rafael and Camille getting married.
We ended as Rafael and Camille went on their honey moon.
