Isaac had to travel urgently, the same day he took Leonard home, for several days for work reasons, they were in a volunteer program to help the most disadvantaged and remote communities, when he was warned of the floods, so they could not talk then, but until now.

After showering and eating, she sat with Leonard in the living room of the apartment and could hardly believe everything her friend had told her.

"God! We've known each other since college, why didn't he ever tell me, or did you ever tell me? Hell!" he exclaimed, not knowing what to call it, Leo looked at him with a smile.

"Isaac, you don't have to treat me any differently, we're friends, my name is Leo, being heir to the Skarosky's doesn't change anything," he said with a shrug.

"No, you don't change anything, you're just fourth in line to become the monarch of this nation," he said sarcastically.

"Actually, I am the sixth, it is not at all likely that I will become the monarch of this country one day, the five before me

    Christian could not believe what he was living, it all seemed like a terrible nightmare, soon he would wake up and his wife would be at his side, safe and sound with their baby growing inside him. He closed his eyes for a moment, squeezing them shut, hoping to erase all those unpleasant images, but it didn't happen, because he was still there, being dragged by a couple of beefy security guards.He tried with all his might to free himself, punching the men beside him left and right to free himself, but his attempts were unsuccessful. In the face of his resistance, he was only injured because they held him with greater force; they treated him without any consideration, dragging him and then throwing him on the street as if he were a dirty garbage bag.He felt as if his world had been plunged into a deep darkness, his body was tingling and his chest was tight as if there was not enough air to oxygenate his lungs and the despair inside him was too overwhelming.When he was released, he wa

    Christian finally got out of bed, after much meditation, he left his room, not without first taking the keys to one of his motorcycles, it was the most practical way to get out of there, as it would draw less attention than taking one of his cars. He walked stealthily, looking to all sides as he moved slowly to avoid being seen, knowing that if Jared or any of the service personnel saw him, they would stop him, but he was not willing to stay in that house while its interior was a dangerous ordeal, he needed to get to where everything was happening.The images flashed through his mind, his argument with Lynda, his attempt to restrain her, her leaving his side, leaning back from the railing and seconds later watching her fall over the balcony with nothing he could do to stop her.He took the motorcycle from the garage, put on his helmet without turning it on until he went outside, got on and rode all the way to the gate of the house, for a moment he feared being stopped by the security

    Jonas Johnson walked proudly, he was happy because his plans had turned out better than he thought, especially when he saw the news on social networks and other media about the death of his daughter Lynda Johnson at the hands of Christian Goldman, there was no news about him, apparently, he shot himself, despite this the news on the subject was blocked, everything was just rumors. But he was sure of one thing, that J&L Construction would be safe now, that he would no longer have to deal with this man who had humiliated him to the point of no return.Who would have believed it? he thought, he was so afraid of Christian and finally defeated him faster than the others, he smiled proudly, surely when a man falls in love he becomes a fool, no matter how clever he is, that's why I still stand, undefeated against my opponents, because I never lost my head for love, not even for Margarita, who was the one I loved the most, and a noble, courageous woman, very different from the others, he said

    Leonard Skarosky.After sending Christian out, I put him back on oxygen and stabilize Lynda. I sigh helplessly as I assess her condition. She has suffered a fracture in her spine at the lumbar level, which could affect one or both legs in the future, and she would need rehabilitation to walk again.As I watched her being taken away, I felt a deep sadness, she reminded me so much of my sister, and now that I had regained something of her, I did not want to lose her, I would do anything to save her.At that moment, I felt the doors open violently and turned to see my brother Salvatore coming in."Where is Lynda?" he asked in a serious voice."She has been taken away to treat certain injuries to her body, we need to get her stabilized," I replied, unable to help but feel some remorse for what I had just done to Christian, I had destroyed him, but it was either him or my niece, and of course I had the right to choose her."You have to save her Leo, you have to do the impossible to stabili

    Christian GoldmanI don't know what I was thinking about that day, maybe it was the sadness, the pain that ate me to my bones, maybe I am a coward, or maybe I am very brave, because life was a greater torture for me than death. At the last second, I deflected the shot and it hit the wall, I put the gun away. I put my hands on my head, leaned my elbows on the surface of the desk, closed my eyes tightly and tried to find a calm that I had lost for many hours; but it was in vain, I could not fight against the current, how could I have peace? If from the moment I went to the Johnson's dinner, every trace of the happiness I felt with Lynda disappeared, my sixth sense did not fail me, on the contrary, it warned me that it was not a good idea... we should never have gone to that place, but she was determined and everything to show me her innocence, which I could not see... leaving me to appearances and destroying the most wonderful thing I had in my life."Damn you, Christian! You deserve t

    Christian GoldmanI opened my eyes slowly, I felt my tongue stuck to my palate, my dry lips stuck together, my body was a mess of pain, sadness, suffering, I regretted that this meant I was still alive and I did not want to go on because nothing had any value for me anymore, but I was too cowardly to try to deprive myself of it and to my misfortune, death escaped me. My conscience tortured me day and night for having destroyed the only beautiful thing I had in my life, I cried because every memory was a stab in my chest."L-Linda," I was able to articulate in a barely audible tone, it was more like a small howl of pain that came from the depths of my soul.I tried to get up, it was difficult, I didn't have a single part of my body unharmed, everything hurt, then I realized that I was lying on the hard floor, I didn't know how many days I had spent there, locked in a small room, barely two by two, dark and damp, the pain in my ribs was intense, I didn't rule out that I had a broken rib

    Christian GoldmanI felt my body tremble, the burning in my stomach was unbearable, as if someone had drilled or buried a sharp object in me and just wanted to keep moving it in my wound, suddenly I heard footsteps and voices that I did not want to identify who they belonged to because the haze in my mind prevented me from thinking."Let's take him to the doctor. He looks very weak," one of the men said."How can he not look so? Look, his lips are all chapped, and it looks like they haven't even given him water, let alone food. Help me get him up," said the other, as I struggled not to faint.Sometime later, I couldn't say how long, as I completely lost track of time, I opened my eyes and found myself in the infirmary with an IV in my veins and a nurse, I tried to move and she prevented me."Please don't move, keep still, you are very weak, Dr. Isaac is coming, he has been watching over you, even thanks to his intervention and that of his other friends who talked to Prince Leonard, th

    Three years laterChristian GoldmanI looked everywhere without being able to avoid the fear that settled in the pit of my stomach, it was no less, I could not stop feeling anguish just to imagine facing the outside world, during that time so many things happened, I suffered hardships, punishments, ridicule, most of the time I was locked up in a kind of cabin where I could not lie down, it was just a small room of 1X1.5 meters where I had to sleep sitting, without a bathroom where I had to relieve myself in the same room where I ate.In the end I got used to the disgusting stench, I stayed locked up for several days, for no apparent reason, because I did not commit any indiscipline, I think they did it with great pleasure, after many days they took me out to the yard, exposing me to the sun and not being used to it, my eyes were damaged.I had no hope, I knew that these years of imprisonment could be the last of my life, and deep inside I was waiting for it. However, although I had no

    Christian EvansThe sky was deep blue, no clouds in sight, the sun was shining, reflecting on the green grass, the people in their finery stood out brightly, like a beacon under the sun, dresses and jackets coated in a golden glow, and the wind is fair, it was like a gentle caress on the face.I feel the green scent of the earth soaking the air like a sponge, filling my nostrils with a rich aroma. The air smelled of warm summer breezes, fresh spring grass, the incense of a hundred thousand prayers, the flowers of the city gardens, and new hopes.People were laughing and chatting happily, their eyes fixed on the balcony of the Royal House where Lynda and I, the new rulers of Balaica, would soon appear.To say that I am not nervous would be a lie... but at the same time it is an indescribable feeling... neither of us expected such an outcome, nor so much responsibility, but together there is no burden we cannot carry, and I will be by my wife's side to help her along the way.The anxiet

    Lynda Skarosky I left the hospital with mixed emotions, I knew how bad Jonah Jonhson had been to me in the past, but I couldn't shake this feeling of sadness, dozens of questions came to my mind Could we have had a different life? What if my mother hadn't died? Would Jonah have changed? If he had paid more attention to me, would I have become another Lynnet? I couldn't help but sigh as we drove back because there were no more answers to these questions. Christian took my hand and stroked it gently, I know he was also imagining different scenarios, because one of the people Jonas had hurt the most, apart from me and even Lynnet herself, had been him and his father. "My dear, don't martyr yourself anymore... there are situations that we can't solve... let's leave the past there and continue on our way... what we have lived through will serve us as an experience, besides, both the good and the bad experiences have helped us to be what we are today," Christian told me and he was right

    One month laterChristian EvansI entered the luxurious building where the former Goldman transnational company operated, located in the financial district of the city of Vancal, capital of Balaica Island, because I had changed its name to Goldman Evans Economic Consortium, I did not suppress the old name because I had to take it in honor of the only person who trusted me and gave me his support, and that thanks to him I could be what I was today, my mentor, we hoped to contribute as a company to the growth of the island and promote the tourism sector.When people saw me, they stopped immediately, it had always been like that, because I was a man who inspired strength, except for those years when he wanted to punish me, but those were left behind and thanks to the love that Lynda and I had for each other, now ended up being overcome. As for my wife, she was about to receive the crown, the coronation ceremony was scheduled in a few days and that made her nervous, I supported her in ev

    Christian GoldmanWhen I saw Leonard, I didn't think he would be able to face Salvatore and the press and confess what he had done, but he did, and in that moment, I felt compassion for him."I was the one who carried out a series of acts against Christian, starting with showing him Lynda's supposed body, making him believe she was dead and taking him away from her even when I saw him broken," he paused as we all stood in silence. "We put together a case to frame Christian and put him in jail for his wife's supposed death.Leonard's expression was one of sadness, his eyes were lost on the floor and his voice sounded broken."He lost her, he went to jail, I made his life a hell, I was the only one responsible for his misfortune, I wanted to destroy him... although in my favor I must say I thought I did not love her... I was angry for everything I had done to her, she is my blood, my niece, my sister's daughter, whom I loved so much, and that life did not take her away and did not know

    Lynda SkaroskyWhen I saw them, I could not help but feel fear, especially my uncle Salvatore, I knew he was capable of doing anything for institutionalism and at that moment I was about to harm the crown, my body trembled with fear when he approached me and said in a whisper that I could only hear."Let's talk and come to an agreement...you cannot destroy the hopes of this country...even your mother sacrificed herself for the crown, do you want to make everything she did in vain?""Prince Salvatore, how good that you are here, I don't know if you don't know what is happening or if you are a participant in this plot against my legitimate wife," my husband spoke firmly, so that everyone murmured with a surprised expression."You are mistaken, Mr. Goldman, I am the lawful husband of Princess Lynda Skarosky. The whole country witnessed our marriage a few days ago. What are you trying to do with this lie?" the man said, looking at him with contempt. "You were married, to Lynnet Johnson, a

    Christian Goldman "Thanks, I'll see you back at the house," I said, ending the call.When we got to the mainland, I didn't want to ask the boys to look for us, I was afraid they were being watched and would end up catching us. I helped Lynda cover her hair so she couldn't be identified."You have to be careful, there are crown guards everywhere...they are looking for you, Princess," the man said and I felt my wife's body tense under my hand.The man realized we were worried because he had just recognized her and shook his head."I am not an enemy...I am an ally, and my loyalty is always with you, Princess," the man said, and the sincerity in his words was palpable."Thank you," I replied. "I just want you to watch the press conference we have this afternoon and tell as many people as you can...they will know today the reasons the princess had for running away."After saying goodbye, we walked about two kilometers from where the boat dropped us off to where we were to take the cab, lu

    Christian GoldmanI don't know how long I slept, I only felt the room getting dark, I woke up startled at first, thinking it was just a dream, but when I looked to the side, I saw them both sleeping and my heart jumped with joy in my chest, I couldn't help but smile. I got up, being careful not to wake them, took a shower and went to the kitchen to make them something to eat, not without first picking up the sheets and all the things I had washed.As I did so, I could not help but approach the golden angel flower... and I smiled to myself, perhaps I had been very skeptical before, but at that moment there was no trace of that characteristic left in me, because when the gentleman who brought me to the island told me the legend of the flower and said I could make a wish on it, I asked for my wife and family back and there it was.I stood there for a moment, sniffing the fragrant scent of the sea, closing my eyes and letting the wind blow in my face, when suddenly I felt a delicate body

Everything I had suffered all these years was erased in an instant when I saw her again. We gave each other a long, sweet kiss, savoring every moment as if it were our last. I couldn't believe she was back with me and vowed never to leave her side again."I love you Lynda, you have no idea how much," I took her hand and held it to my chest so she could feel my heart beating for her."I love you too," she said and began to work her hand through the buttons of my shirt, caressing my chest. I held her hand for a moment to stop her from continuing, and she looked at me with confused eyes."Why are you stopping me?" she asked and for a moment I was embarrassed to answer her, for a moment I tried to turn my face away and she held it for me."What's happening is that..." I hesitated, took a deep breath and answered her. "I'm not the man I used

    Christian Goldman"Tell me Christian, do you agree with my plan? Will you help me face them?" asked Lynda, looking at me with a hopeful expression,"What's your plan?" I asked without taking my eyes off her with the same intensity of her gaze."I've got two, but I need your opinion," she asked as we walked to the kitchen to make them something to eat, because although she hadn't told me, they were surely hungry."Which ones are they?" I asked and she answered immediately."One, I should go back to them and let them think I've just been hanging around since I found out about my son and try to undermine them from the inside," she hadn't finished before I stopped her."No, I don't agree with that plan, because I'm not going to lose them again when I just got them back... What's the other one?" I asked firmly without realizing it, and she raised her eyebrows in surprise."Wow, you go right to paper," she protested, referring to my attitude, and I ignored her words."What's the other plan?
