Novel analysis: the pretenders



Honestly I did not finished reading the novel not because I am bored of this book but i started reading it late. Even if I did not finished the novel I listen to the reports of other.
Base in what I understand and some research: Tony went to U.S. and lift Emy her cousin but Tony did not know that her cousin emy was pregnant with pepe( soon become a drug pusher and get relationship with Lucy the housemaid of his aunt Betty and Uncle Bert. ) then when Tony return in the Philippines he met Carmen the daughter of Don Manuel. Don Manuel shows Tony how to buy people.
Tony barely protest: he accepts a position with the villas and goes along with shady business plans. Don Manuel proves his point when he shows Tony a canceled check made out to a magazine journalist whom Tony regards as a man of integrity. almost simultaneously, Tony realize that Carmen has lost respect for him and is having an affair
