Having a one-sided love is not easy to accept, especially when all hopes are lost. Oliver Cortes (Jameson Blake) is one who struggles with this in his pursuit of Eva Mapendo (Julia Barretto), who has another person in her heart, his own half-brother Inno Cortes (Joshua Garcia).
As the gripping tale of Ngayon at Kailanman comes to its momentous conclusion this week, let’s revisit those times Oliver showed how much he loved Eva despite the false hopes.
Meeting Eva
On Eva’s chase to get the stolen necklace from a thief, Oliver accidentally met her. At that time, he was being pushed by his mother to have some romantic relationship with a girl he doesn’t like. Knowing Eva’s financial problems and being mesmerized by her beauty, Oliver urged her to pretend to be his girlfriend. Growing up spoiled because of having a grave illness in his childhood, Oliver is used to always get what he wants. But here, Eva proved him wrong.
His Drunken Night at the Condo
After being just friends and at the time Oliver thought he’s done with her, Oliver began to really feel something for Eva when she helped save him during the lowest point of his life. On a night he lay wasted in his condo, Eva came and didn’t leave his side until he finally realized that he has to change the way he lives his life. At a time when Oliver was in so much pain, Eva gave him hope.
Finding Her as an Inspiration
Since that night, Oliver made Eva his inspiration to change for the better. He worked on his career and gradually opened his heart to people. While fixing his life, Oliver tried to pursue Eva despite seeing the obvious that his half-brother Inno will be his greatest rival.
Taking his Chances
Although he knows that Eva loves Inno, Oliver didn’t give up. He still tried several times to pursue her. She declined him repeatedly but when Eva and Inno broke up, Oliver took the opportunity. He kept on supporting Eva and was always by her side, fighting to get her only for himself.
Losing Her
Oliver did everything to win her heart, but when Eva decided to reconcile with Inno, Oliver let his selfish nature take over him again. Losing Eva broke him to the core and he has let that situation break him apart, having no respect for anyone and letting all his hate and anger control him. Oliver became depressed due to family problems and jealousy. He also had hallucinations of Hernan Cortes (Christian Vasquez) and hearing him blaming Inno.
Now, Oliver has gone out of his mind. Aside from his suicidal tendencies, he doesn’t care hurting people especially Eva who broke his heart.
