"I already told you that there is nothing here!" Paula said, kicking the dry leaves that were in the place where her accident had occurred.

Maximilian continued searching, moving the leaves, moving the fallen branches, there was still glass there but the truth was that he didn't care. He just wanted to find that ring.

"I already told you that if you fell far from the car the ring could be anywhere!”

Paula continued looking at the desperation with which he searched for the ring. The truth was that she couldn't understand it. That ring seemed to mean everything to the doctor she had been living with.

"Come on, help me look, it has to be around here.”

"I'm coming, I'm coming.”

And in the same way as Maximilian, she began to remove the dirt with the difference that the more she did it, the more glass and part of the car she found, the more memories came to her. She had had an accident there, now that she saw it closer, from there the police had declared Paula dead, but how? Without a body

    In the darkness of the night, just where no one but evil and all the curious could attack without anything getting in the way of his plans, Manuel entered the office of the man with whom he lived and who felt that he was his son because he was his mother's best friend, the only one who supported her in everything when Maximilian was a child.

    And it was precisely in that way that time began to pass, in that same way, always being Paula's clear eyes that saw a new dawn arrive, knowing that each one of them brought her closer to her new life, it was like Paula managed to live.Locked in those four walls, where what she knew most was her room and the office where Maximilian was starting to work with her.After three days they were able to collect the analyzes from Maximilian's friend, everything went as Maximilian expected. It was only a matter of time before he worked on her.And the more they talked each time Maximilian told her to come down to his office before the big surgery, it was like she was beginning to get to know the man she was going to work with shoulder to shoulder.He didn't know how true it was, but Maximilian could swear that he had managed to see the change in Paula's eyes every time he told her that the face change surgery was going to be a complete success.

    No matter how much good happened between them, or how good intentions she had towards him, Manuel was never going to be able to see that well because all he could see in her was a demon that had dragged his son into that, a demon with a thirst for revenge inside. The day of the operation was approaching, Maximilian had already let Paula know, very soon her life was going to begin, just as he had promised. It's just that there was one thing she wanted the world to understand before everything changed. And their first target was with that man they also lived with and who seemed to be the only person in Max's life. The last thing she wanted was for Maximilian to have problems because Manuel seemed to love him like a father. She wasn't a meddler, she didn't want that relationship to break up because of her. All she wanted was justice."Manuel, can we talk just for a moment?” She asked.Manuel couldn't help but stop as he sighed. He didn't want to have anything to do with her."How can I

    And in that way time continued to pass. Dreams as well as nightmares came true. The evil could always last a little longer. Evil could live in broad daylight but, not forever. Not for long.With her legs crossed, showing off that figure of an elegant and beautiful woman, Gertrudis smiled at the new image in front of her."How could this happen?” Alexander's mother asked, getting up from her place.Gertrudis smiled. No matter how much that woman had talked about wanting the best for her only child, in the end the best was Emma."It just happened and that's it," Gertrudis said elegantly. "I don't understand why we worry about the media when my daughter is already pregnant with his son, the only heir of the Vitals, why not speed up everything and that's it?" Gertrudis asked.In front of her was her daughter with Alexander. Alexander's face was full of worry and shame."The truth is that I didn't think it would happen this way," said Lucia, Alexander's mother."Is that a lie that parents

    Looking at herself every moment in the hand mirror that she had and from which she did not leave no matter if it was night or day, Paula realized that nothing changed about her. Everything remained the same for her, everything was painted the same color. Only white bandages that covered her face and barely let her see the morning.She was eager to see her new face, of course Maximilian had already told her that to get to the end they had to go through many more surgeries, that this was going to take time, that this was not going to happen in a month, two, three months, no, he could go up to a year so she could discover herself as a new woman.The door to her room was knocked."Go ahead," she said, putting away the mirror.It was Manuel who brought her food."Oh, thank you very much, Manuel, the truth is that I couldn't wait to eat.”Manuel didn't say anything. No matter how much she tried to have a conversation with him, he couldn't seem to stand having her around, although by then ev

    Walking among the graves of that cemetery, with a bouquet of white roses that she carried, silence was all that accompanied her at that moment. There was nothing after that moment. And no matter how much time passed, she still needed it, perhaps because she was the only one to see a successful woman, perhaps because she was the one who fought to be given an important position in the company despite her age and that look that could no longer look good on a woman forty-two years old or older.A smile came to her face when he found the grave in which Paula Garza's remains rested.Romina had gotten to see her friend after a week."Finally I managed to come after so long, Paula. So many things to do, so many things to do, the truth is that I think I'll miss you all my life. I still can't believe you're gone. I just can't get used to the fact that there is no one like you to whom I can tell my darkest secrets, everything that afflicted me, knowing that in you I could see my lost daughter, P

    One more day that he finished work, one more day that he was leaving and in which he had not been able to go see Mr. Sorín. So many false promises he had made so that in the end he couldn't even come visit him regularly. It was not his fault, he did everything he could to protect the inheritance, to manage elsewhere, to make his way and become the star lawyer he always wanted to be but with Mr. Sorín's accident nothing could be done.Then Miguel turned on the lights in his house. One more night in which he arrived and there was no one to welcome him. Or maybe that was what he thought because so many years had passed in the same way that it was easy to get used to loneliness that was no longer seen as loneliness but as company and security.The truth is that he couldn't imagine being a person of much power in that world where he would only find enemies at the end of the day. Rubbing his eyes due to fatigue, Miguel continued on his way, keeping in mind that he would just make himself

    As soon as the lawyer Miguel Izquierdo was able to bring his breath back to him, as soon as Miguel realized that the woman in front of him simply couldn't be real for the simple fact that the real Salomé was dead, The lawyer blinked a couple of times."Who the hell are you, miss? How did he get into my house? Who are you?" Miguel demanded to know.Paula's confidence left her for a moment. Did he really not recognize her? Of course not, she appeared out of nowhere with a different face without mentioning that the lawyer knew that she had died in a terrible accident! No, she must be dead! That was simply not possible! Salomé's eyes opened immediately because the man didn't really seem to recognize her, he was acting only on impulse, he hadn't even taken a minute to look at her."Miguel, Miguel, it's me, I'm Salomé, Ricardo Sorín's daughter, how is it possible that you have forgotten me?” Now the one who seemed scared was her because she knew that if at that very moment she couldn't c

    Only one person in the world had such strange tastes, a person who, of course, was dead. Even if the woman in front of her was not the same Paula, Salomé had come to that place for a reason and that reason Gertrudis was going to end up discovering. "Tell me, why are you interested in a place like this? As far as I know, you have been a very important woman, why do business with the Vitals?""Well, the truth is that it's not exactly them," said Salomé, drinking her tea, having brought it."So what are new businesses about?""Mmm, what I'm looking for right now is to have a very productive source in which I can invest, they told me that the Vitals are one of the most stable people in a business like the one I want to do."Salomé knew perfectly well that the way to grab Gertrudis was through money, it was what she loved the most and it was precisely at that moment that she was going to take the first step against her."Can I know what type of business we are talking about?"

    Legs crossed, one hand holding the glass of wine she had been drinking for the last fifteen minutes, she didn't care how much time passed, she was going to wait for her until she deigned to enter through that door while in the armchair in front of her. There was the baby's crib that she had brought from the hospital no more than six hours ago.“Please come in, miss,” said one of the servers.Being the woman that only she could be, she stood up from her spot the moment she heard her daughter."Mother, mother? Mother, I have news for you!"With one hand on her waist, Emma found Gertrudis looking at her as she rarely did, she motioned for her to come closer."Mother, what is happening?""You're an idiot!" And taking out her anger, Gertrudis slapped her daughter. "I can't believe how far you've come to be such an idiot.""What are you talking about, mother?" "Go away, go away with that child because I don't want him anymore!""Mother, what is happening?""Don't call me mother, I don't w

    Signing the last document that Humberto had given her in that yellow envelope, Gertrudis smiled as she handed him the documents. Only that signature was going to validate the decision she had made.Gertrudis was tired of being just the widow of a man who had left her with a fortune, but a fortune that she had not wanted to use until that moment."Are you sure what you are going to do, my lady?" Humberto asked."Of course I'm sure. My daughter is still inept and content with just being a model when she knows perfectly well that she could be the competition of her own husband." "That is why you should be the patron saint of this entire country.""Shall I tell you something?""Whatever you want, my lady. You already know that my duty is to listen to you.""There is something about that woman, the wife of this Montenegro, that I don't like. If only you had been there the night of the celebration, you would have realized many things. That's why I see the need to do this. It is said that t

    Emma was not the only one who had seen that young couple who hugged each other as if they were meant for each other, and supported each other in good and bad times, Gertrudis had also seen them from the second floor, which was where she talked to Humberto about some issue that had arisen, nothing important."Is she the woman who was at the celebration yesterday?" She asked.Of course Humberto couldn't understand because he hadn't been there the night before."What are you talking about, my lady?""That woman, who does she think she is hugging my son-in-law like that?"Humberto smiled. "No, I don't understand.""Yesterday, that woman you see there was at the celebration, she is a very powerful woman, she is married to an important man too, what is she up to, huh?""I don't know, my lady, but ask me anything and I'll take care of the rest."Gertrudis shook her head. "No, of course I don't want you to do anything now. I just want to know why she is here, she seems very interested in ever

    The world around her could disappear at that very moment because it was not against it that she had that feeling of revenge, it was against just that person who was not there to receive her."Good morning, lady Montenegro.""Salomé Sorín," she corrected.Everyone around her didn't know how to do anything but look at each other."I can assert my name on my own, I don't need my husband's last name. And where is Mr. Vital? Did I get the date wrong and wasn't today the most important meeting we would have?" "Ms. Sorín, it happens that Mr. Vital has not even called to say that he is going to cancel the meeting, we have tried to call him a thousand times.""Cancel the meeting? I don't like being snubbed.""No, of course not. I will continue trying to contact him."Salome sighed. Only that was missing.She saw the world running around her because everyone there knew what the power of the Sorín could mean in a country that until now had the pleasure of living with them, the men knew that

    "Who do you think you are? What's wrong with you, Maximilian?! Don't even think about doing what you did outside the house again because I won't answer the other time!" Salomé shouted again and again as they entered the large house they had bought. And Manuel walked behind them, unable to stop smiling discreetly."I already told you, Salomé! I had to kiss you because Alexander was watching us from behind!""What a nice excuse you had to do it!""Think whatever you want, I'm not interested in you in that way!""I already told you not to do something again that I haven't given you permission to do!" With that, Salomé went up the stairs going straight to her room.She was furious, she was tired of men wanting to do anything with her. Salomé was no longer the same. Paula had died, Salomé was not going to allow any man to lay a hand on her.When she got to her room, Salomé closed the doors while her chest rose and fell with total difficulty.She couldn't get what had happened out of her mi

    At Salomé's side, Maximilian knew what that moment was all about. Salomé didn't play when she said she was going to take her revenge the short way around. She wanted to get revenge on everyone once and for all."I am pleased to be me, Maximiliano Montenegro, the one who presents Salomé as my wife," he said, noticing Alexander's gaze on his wife. It was as if his jealousy had suddenly awakened, jealousy that he couldn't feel for her."Emma Vital, nice to meet you," she introduced herself."The pleasure is mine, madam.""Gertrudis Garza, nice to meet you."And while everyone was presenting themselves before Maximilian, Alexander had not missed the opportunity to observe Salomé as only a shameless person would do. If only he knew that she was the woman he forgot about so soon.Salomé was no longer the same Paula, this time she knew how to act under the gaze of a man like him. Without being shameless, she smiled elegantly at him. In less than two minutes she had already look into his eyes

    With a cup of coffee on the table in the middle of the garden and where Maximilian, Manuel and Salomé were having breakfast. The smile on Salomé's face had changed a little and Maximilian could see that since he had been the one who had seen her smile when she was Paula and not Salomé. The smile had changed, now it was a smile full of seduction.Maximilian knew that this woman could make his brother fall for her once again.Finally Salomé lowered the cutlery in her hands and took her cell phone next to her. Maximilian was afraid that she had changed."Did you enjoy breakfast?" Maximilian asked when he saw that she didn't say anything else, she was changing very quickly and he only seemed to fall more in love every second while he missed the Paula that he could never see as such."Yes, I'll fix a couple of things."Manuel and Maximilian looked at each other. The atmosphere had completely changed."Manuel, can you accompany me to receive the dresses that will arrive in an hour? I have t

    ONE WEEK LATERThree black cars that stopped behind the white car. And if those people thought that she was never going to return, they were completely wrong, now it was Salomé who was not going to rest until she saw them on their knees.Wearing a long blue dress that looked more like it was evening than the one she was supposed to wear to that meeting, Salomé got out of the car, being helped by her husband. A man who couldn't believe they were already there, in the same place they had taken from his hands.With a dignified look, Salomé went down leaning on her husband's arm. The great Maximilian Montenegro."Go ahead, Mrs. Montenegro," said one of the men who were already waiting for her.And without even knowing how to make a gesture of gratitude, Salomé continued on her way.
