Plus belle la vie, even since the launch of plus belle, the police and Mistralians have been trying to figure out who could have killed Francesco. The former chef actually felt ill after taking a large dose of atropine on the opening night of the new Mistral.
During the investigation, the police found that only a person close to the victim could have consumed the poison. Therefore, their suspicions are directed directly at his wife, Estelle (Elodie Varle).
But if the young woman, exhausted, confesses everything to the police, we discover in the final minutes of Friday’s episode that she is actually innocent. Francesco (Emanuele Giorgi) reveals to Silvia, his sister, that he poisoned himself in the hope that Estelle would stay in Marseilles and not go to Lyon for her internship.
She tried her best to blame Javad (David Bayot), putting a box of dog eye drops under the mattress. Unfortunately, his plan backfires as the police now blame Estelle.
But when Silvia tries to push Francesco to tell the truth to the police, the young man does not seem ready to save his wife and sinks deeper and deeper into her lies until he becomes violent. In any case, that’s what an excerpt from episode 13 posted on the online platform suggests TF1+.
Is Francesco willing to do anything to keep Estelle?
In this scene, Sylvia finds her brother in her own home. He brought dessert for Francesco, Estelle and himself. The latter tells him that his wife is not there. Sylvia then asks him if he’s in training. Francesco has hope. Otherwise it means he is with Javad.
But why would Estelle be with him? Francesco admits to his sister that he looked at his wife’s phone and that he received a message from Javadi, who arranged a meeting with her. Sylvia is shocked that her brother was spying on her wife.
But Francesco does not realize that he is guilty. For him, the most important thing in this story is that Estelle is cheating on him. He starts to get angry. Silvia tries to calm him down. But Francesco continues to yell at her, insisting that he is talking about his wife.
“I love him, it’s okay I want him by my side– he said to Silvia. The latter then explains to him that what he feels is jealousy, not love. He then asks her what she knows about love.
She replies that Benjamin, her ex, was just as jealous as Francesco and eventually left her. Francesco does not accept that Silvia compares him to this man. “Estelle isn’t going to leave me, I’m not going to let her“- he shouts.
Sylvia tells him she is going crazy. He wants to take her to the police station so she can finally tell the police the truth. But Francesco doesn’t want to go. He violently asks his sister to leave. He leaves the stage and finally tells her that he needs treatment.
How much can Francesco control Estelle? In an interview with AlloCiné, Elodie Varlet, who plays the character, explained that when Estelle discovered her husband’s secret, she was going to go “very, very far.”
The answer is in the next episodes of Plus belle la vie, even plus belle, broadcast from Monday to Friday at 13:40 on TF1 and available for viewing on the TF1+ platform.
