Why Lope left La Promesa?

Lope has left La Promesa, but why?

In the fifth season of La Promesa, the situation between the servants becomes tense. The servants, instigated by Vera, are against the housekeeper Teresa, and Ballesteros can no longer tolerate the malicious gossip directed at Teresa.

Teresa confesses the truth about Lope

Teresa calls Vera to tell her that Lope didn't leave the mansion because of Teresa or the butler. Lope left because he wanted to leave. He didn't have the courage to confront Vera and tell her the truth.

Teresa remembers how Lope asked her for a favor after Ángela and the Captain's failed wedding. Lope asked Teresa to get the butler to fire him. Lope told Teresa that on don Lorenzo's wedding day, one of the most influential families in the country had offered him a job as a chef in their house.

After the Madame Cocotte affair, Lope was inundated with job offers from the most luxurious homes and the best restaurants in the country, but he turned them all down, and there was only one reason: Vera. Lope had promised Vera that he wouldn't leave the mansion without her.

However, this was a unique opportunity for Lope that he couldn't refuse, especially since he was unhappy with his situation at La Promesa. Despite the congratulations and the chance to serve at the wedding, he was still just a servant, and he didn't think he would be able to return to the kitchen permanently. But if he accepted the offer, his situation could change and he could become a chef again. If everything went as Lope hoped, he could offer Vera the life she truly deserves.

Teresa urged Lope to talk to Vera and tell her the truth, but Lope reminded him of his promise and that Vera wouldn't understand why he wanted to leave. That's why he needed an external reason. The butler telling him to leave. And for that, he needed Teresa's help. And finally, Teresa agreed.

Vera breaks Up with Lope

Vera is shocked to learn the truth about her boyfriend's departure, and decides to write Lope a farewell letter.

"How could I have imagined that you wanted to leave, that it was your own decision to take care of your future and leave everything else behind? How could I have imagined that you would abandon me? And above all, how could I have imagined that you lied to me, that you lied to me when you left, and that you would continue to lie to me in every letter you write?

Why, Lope? Weren't we a couple? Aren't we going to face everything together, whatever it is? What you've done is so disgusting, so despicable... that I don't know if I can ever forgive you. I just hope that everything will work out in the end and that you manage to make your dreams come true.

Never write to me again. Goodbye, my love."
