The issue about Carlos and Camilo spread throughout the town, turns out Dolores and Gutierrez aren't the only ones who saw everything. 

"I'll go now," Isabela said and walks to go to the Gutierrez "Act normal Isa, Act normal," Isabela said to herself and continued her way. 

"Abuela Gutierrez! I'm here I heard u need my help" Isabela shout outside of Casa Gutierrez "Oh, h-hello Isa" Abuela Gutierrez said, "Dolores still told you?" Palma asks who's looking at Isabel irritated 

"Yes, she told me everything." Isabela said sympathizing with the word 'everything'  "Well after everything happen I didn't know she would still tell it to you and I didn't expect you to still help us" Palma said with a confused yet mad expression 

"Well, that's very immature if I will not help you because of 'that' reason, and Mrs. Palma we are not like you, who will turn everything down because of a stupid reason." Isabela said in the same tone she used when she and Mirabel were still on bad terms "Oops- I forgot you're older" Isabela said and smirked as she was satisfied with Palma's reaction. 

"Mind leading me to the burnt tree you were talking about?" Isabela said in a straight face and cold tone "S-sure" Juana said smiling at the youngest and leading her to the tree "I take care of it a lot I don't know why it's suddenly become like that an I don't let Ines come closer to that tree" Juana said in a sad tone looking at the tree worriedly 

"It's fine Mrs. Juana, I know you did your best," Isabela said in a sweet tone well she doesn't have the reason to be mad at Mrs. Juana, she's the kindest Gutierrez after all. Isabela raises her hand and the tree become so healthy again 

"here you go Mrs. Juana," Isabela said and smiled widely as she saw how happy Juana is "Thank you so much Isabela you're an angel," Juana said and hug Isabela "You don't know how happy I am" Juana added. Isabela hug her back and said 

"I can see how happy you are Mrs. Juana and I can feel it" and smiled "Julieta really raise such angels and by the way, I'm sorry about what Carlos did to Camilo, it's okay if-" Juana said but was cut off by Isabela "Camilo decided to end their friendship after realizing how bad Carlos to him and never really care about their friendship at all." Juana was speechless 

"I-I'm sorry I didn't know any of these" Juana said and receive a pat from Isabela "You did nothing Mrs. Juana I'm for sure everything of this has a reason, what if they will be friends again in the future? let me just ask Tío Bruno for it and I'll tell to you once I receive what Tío Bruno saw" Isabela said and smiled "I'll go now, I'm for sure Mama is worrying now" Isabela added and walk away once Juana nodded.
