How has Bayorda San Roman been represented during the marriage
As Bayardo San Roman plans his wedding to Angela Vicario, he spares no expense, and the narrator thinks Bayardo must assume a more expensive wedding will lead to a happier marriage. As an extremely wealthy man, Bayardo San Roman may indeed have thought that money could buy happiness. While his money allows him a comfortable lifestyle, his wealth also gives him a certain emptiness that Angela notices.
How was Bayardo San Roman shown after 23 years of this incident
Here, the narrator explains how Bayardo San Roman receives him years after the story’s main events. Bayardo remains a mystery not only to the narrator but to Bayardo’s family as well.

Bayardo takes Angela’s past personally to such an extreme that the situation ruins his life.
How was Angela Vicario opressed in Chronicle of Death Foretold
Although Angela is known as the most beautiful among her sisters, the narrator senses something off about her. Like many women, Angela was raised to be modest and quiet. She knows that she has no say in her future, just like all of the young women in their town. Yet unlike other girls in town, Angela’s situation bothers her to the point that others notice her affected state of mind.

When Bayardo San Roman decides he wants to marry Angela, she immediately notices his arrogance. This makes sense as Angela seems demure and modest.

Such information hints that Angela has been lying about who took her virginity, yet another indication of Santiago’s innocence.
