The driver had decided to take the young woman to a hospital because he did not know how to help her, on the way he called his brother to warn him of the situation, but Jared had already finished his work, he would be back home, so he met them halfway.Charisse had entered a kind of crisis that was only calming down when she saw her brother. He sheltered in his safe arms, breathing normally, the images of that day did not leave his mind, they were in every blink, every time he closed his eyes, at all times, he saw them, her voice, her image, her face. The sound of the car when accelerating and the fear that reached his bones.She carried her sister in her arms back to her room, she wanted to leave her on the bed, but Charisse was still too scared."Don't let me go, Jared. Please. Don't let me go."I'm by your side, nothing is going to happen to you. I need you to tell me where you went and why you are like this. What happened?"It's... Robert's birthday. I wanted to bring him a gift.
"It must be a mistake," said Alice, after trying to separate Robert and Jared from that fight, both thrown on the floor, with their bodies sweaty and agitated. Luckily neither of them had been injured and did not go beyond struggles and each avoiding each other's fist. Alice wasn't very convinced, but she didn't want to side with Jared, despite the fact that Robert's expression already said a lot. You can't leave on Robert without knowing what's going on, Jared. What are those ways to fix things? Please, this is not the way."Alice, I want you to stay out of this issue, because it's none of your business. It's about Robert, my sister, Bethany and I. "Stay out," Jared asked. He felt a little nervous because Robert was still silent.In his heart he wanted Robert not to know anything, that it was a mistake, a mistake, as Alice said, because the betrayal would be very great, that the person who was so present for years in his life and his sister knew who was the culprit and did not say an
The news had been watered like wildfire between the Taylor sisters.Sofia and Loren tried to call Alice, but she turned off her cell phone so she didn't hear from anyone.Quite stressed that she was after knowing that Robert kept a secret of that magnitude, that he interacted with Bethany even after that, that he knew what she was capable of and let him approach him again, even close to her son.The nerves did not abandon her, while she thought that another more serious thing could have happened against her or her child from Bethany to have felt jealous, if she acted in that impulse driven by jealousy.She kept thinking about bad things and horrible scenarios that were no longer capable of happening, but her thoughts betrayed her and Bethany Walton didn't leave her mind.Are you going to involve Robert? It was one of the questions that Alice asked herself, holding herself so as not to call Jared and keep asking him to please leave Robert out of everything.And it stopped.Because he w
He was facing his father.The man kept wondering how it was that he was wrong in so many things.She was an adult woman, who had wasted her life in multiple ways, but this was one of the worst.There was an attack on someone else's life."Bethany, I've given you everything, I've consented to everything, but never... I could overlook the fact that you try to kill someone else.It was Robert's fault! You know I wanted to leave me, I told you a million times."And I told you not to insist on him, because the poor man put up with you a lot. What does Robert have to do with all this? You ran over her with clear intentions of killing her. I have talked to the lawyer and... we have to try to reach an agreement."I'm sorry, Dad." He looked down. "But Jared is no longer the starved man of before."What do you mean?" Do you think we can't reach an agreement? A good financial compensation, after all she didn't die, did she?"He's the CEO of all Taylor companies, Dad. I think that financial compe
"I don't know what you did to make things happen like this. Maybe you didn't do anything and it was due to Alice. I'm here to tell you myself. Thanks to you... Bethany won't pay for what she did to my sister. I don't blame you for what Bethany did, but I thought you would at least like her to pay for the damage done to my sister. I don't even know how I could think that, when it's clear that if you kept the secret it was because you weren't interested in anything that happened to Charisse. And, even after this, you served to make her leave unscathed. I admit that this is not the first time I have been disappointed in you, but I thought you appreciated my sister, Robert. I don't know why I'm still waiting for something from you, when you let me see over and over again what you are."Jared, I didn't do anything so that Bethany wasn't convicted."Your damn name could not be mentioned at the trial! You knew what Bethany did. You were his fucking accomplice!"He wasn't his accomplice!"And
He didn't know that he wanted to leave or that he needed it, until his brother made the mention of leaving that place.Although the word "abandon" was not to Charisse's liking, because it made her nostalgic. Their father had abandoned them, their mother had died, years later they learn that their father had also died and as if they were not many misfortunes, they are left without money. But luckily Jared finished his university studies and was able to get a good job at Graham Group, the rest that happened did not exist in Charisse's mind, because she was in a coma, she did not know the course that Jared's life took or his friendship with Robert.But leaving that place seemed very sad to him, until he was on the plane.If she looked back, it was not only a relief for her to be moving away from all that, it was also a relief for Jared to be able to leave, to do it with his sister.According to his memories, it was the first time he boarded a plane, because the two times he came to do it
He entered his son's room, he was asleep, the suitcase was already at the door.He kissed his forehead and went towards the door, giving him one last look."I'll be back in four days," he said, it didn't matter if Andy wasn't listening to her.He left the room, turning off the ceiling light and only leaving the one on the bedside table.At the exit door was Jeremy with his arms crossed.I knew Mary Jane's plans and no matter how much it bothered her, I couldn't stop her from doing anything. She was there by her own decision. And for his son.But, despite the fact that in those months Jeremy had tried some things for them to make the passes, Mary Jane did not forgive him for blackmailing her with her son, and only words passed."Mary, will you really leave?" She made a lump in her throat, afraid that she wouldn't come back, that she wouldn't care about either of them."Four days, Jeremy. It's only four days."But... we can go with you."It's Robert and Alice's opening party. It goes wi
"Alice!" she ran to her sister, happy to see her, hugged her, squeezing her against her. A somewhat anguished Robert approached the two, surrounding Alice by the waist to separate them, considering that Mary was squeezing her a little."Don't squeeze it too much." He asked. Mary lowered her arms from her sister and greeted Robert, just as happy to see him. How are you, Mary?"Since when have you been so delicate or careful?""Since always," he replied, surrounding Alice's belly. "Now more."I'm pregnant," little Alice told her sister.Mary Jane put her hands to her mouth, unable to stop the surprise that came to her with the news."What a joy!" Now I understood Robert's precautions, although they were still exaggerated. "Another baby. Congratulations to both of you, I see that you don't waste your time.Alice took her sister's hand, taking her to the car, gave her a second hug and a kiss.Robert entered the suitcase and the two of them were talking."How are you?" Did it cost you to c
