~~~Sin is the Cause of all Sorrow~~~For this Gal,
I don't think Maria went willingly with Cesar anywhere. She was afraid of him and wouldn't trust him. The scenario of Cesar feeding her full of "let's run away together" doesn't fit at all. Maria's encounter with Christina before would let her know that he had no intentions of leaving his wife and child, imo. She had to be fearful of Christina, too.
The truth probably is inserted into the lies...but remember...Christina is the one spouting them for the most part except for the notes.
Have we learned of an encounter between Maria and xtina? What happened anyone?
