Thinking and regretting not having gone with her, Maximilian could not sleep. She had been very clear in her words when she said that if he accompanied her, the man she was going to see would be more distrustful of them, but that was the problem, she was going to see a man, a man he didn't like he knew and of course he couldn't trust.

According to Paula's words, that man was someone she had almost grown up with, he was the family lawyer but even so, Maximilian couldn't contain the desire to want to be with her.

And that way the hours could continue to pass. She didn't seem to have any intention of wanting to appear at that moment.

And so the night could continue its pace, drinking and drinking while delaying his sleep, a sleep that did not come while she was outside either. He had to go find her, that was all he could do.

"Come on, Maximilian, you're not doing this for her but because she's your business partner. Nothing else. In the end she is your brother's wife, your brother!”

    Three well-dressed men entered that room. A woman walking behind one of them. A very elegant woman, the same one who appeared with a blue dress that was a little tight to her body, a little above the knee, with black hair covering part of her chest. And behind her, two more men, the same ones who had promised to stay until the pact ended.“Please take a seat,” Miguel said, pointing to the places in front of him.By that moment Miguel Izquierdo already knew perfectly well that woman's plans and her need to take revenge along with the people who were involved in it in the same way. Maximilian and Manuel, the moment to receive their share had arrived and above all, all of it happening days after Miguel made sure that she was the real Salomé, the only one who was going to receive her position in the company and not only, but also who was going to take care of everything her father left behind due to his condition.The moment was coming but it would also take longer for them to be able to

    Walking in that dark night, where only silence was all that could surround them, the smiles on their faces after having ended the day that way in that world in which Salomé and Maximilian had been reborn as one. Not one more than others, simply equal.Everything seemed to be going perfectly that night, there was nothing that could bother them. Not even that path that seemed endless made their feet tired, it was as if in one way or another they were enjoying that night after so much. Even knowing that in their hearts there could be nothing but pain, more than that thirst for revenge, they could not find love that way.A red dress that wrapped around her a little above her knee, it was not that type of dress that suited her perfectly, it was not one of those that made the most vulgar women look vulgar, it was one of those that simply made her look elegant.It has been a long time since Maximilian saw Salomé smile like that. It was a pleasure that he himself had made the decision to leav

    "To the right, no, to the left, to the left, come on, more sensuality, more sensuality…" The man lowered the camera desperately. That job was being very difficult for him to do. "What's wrong, Emma? I can't believe it's been over two hours and we can't get the perfect photos. There's something I don't like, you're just not the same as before.”Emma stood up from the place where they were taking the photos while covering her body with the first towel she found next to her. She no longer needed to hear the same words over and over again, she already knew that her body had changed, she already knew that she was no longer what she used to be, the best of models. Why did she have to be a mother and please her mother before herself?"You don't have to tell me what I already know!”"You knew perfectly well that models are almost prohibited from having children! What did you have in your head?”Tears gathered in Emma's eyes. Everyone had already told her how insignificant she was, she couldn'

    And with slow steps, Gertrudis approached Humberto. A strong and, to a certain extent, grotesque man. With that lascivious smile that made many people uncomfortable but that rewarded him with the body he had."A pleasure, my lady.”And little by little Gertrudis began to walk her hand over the man's chest. She had never done it before but now that she was in front of him, she realized what she was losing."Excellent," she said, touching him. "Remember that you still need the investigation on that child, did he really die?”And from one moment to the next, Gertrudis kissed him like she had never done before. Humberto couldn't help but smile between the kiss. Even if he had the information with him he wasn't going to give it to her, maybe later that would be more efficient than he expected at that moment. A trip to be made, a black angel arriving to report the arrival of the two people who were going to claim all the damage in the worst way. Manuel had remained the person Salomé trus

    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

    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

    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?" "Of course

    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
