He says that he has given his name to all his children but refuses to marry their mother, then marries soon after the family leaves for New York. Pablo and Ramona have a volatile relationship. Pablo has a good relationship with Esmeralda until she moves to New York but Esmeralda comes to hate him for having married someone else without telling her of this event.
