Beatrice letter to Alex:

Dear Alex,

When you received it maybe we're already far away, I would just want to say that you are the only man I really love, my love for you is pure and real. It is not true that I choose to love someone other than you, God is my witness and he knows I didn't love any person as I loved you. I understand how your parents protect you so much, you are there only son and they want the best for you. You are the future of your family and your company; I don't want to be a hindrance to make you succeeded in life. I choose to leave so I will not be a burden and a source of problem between you and your family. I may only a poor woman who have nothing to be proud of, but I can only give you my pure love and care for our baby. Yes! Alex, our shared love bear a blessing, I'm already pregnant for 3 weeks. I want to tell to you personally but I didn't get the chance. Don't worry because I will take care of our child to be loving and kind. I am planning to name her if she will be a girl to be "Margarette", a strong woman and a leader, who's I dreamed for her, and if ever it will be a boy, I will named it with your name. I will keep also the ring you gave to me as a memory of our love and affection.

Alex, hope you will be happy and always remember that I love you..

Beatrice
