Karen

I couldn't bear to look at Valquíria after the scene I witnessed in the bathroom. I didn't feel capable of answering for my actions at this moment. However, I was determined not to leave without having a very important and revealing conversation with Othon. My heart was pounding in my chest, uncertainty surrounding me as I descended the stairs of the house towards the living room, but I knew it was the right thing to do.

I couldn't just leave things as they were. Despite the emotional confusion that engulfed me, I needed to confront Othon with the truth I had discovered about Valquíria. It wasn't fair for him to remain in the dark, ignorant of his own sister's manipulations and lies.

A few minutes passed as I impatiently waited for his arrival. When Othon finally descended and saw me there, sitting in his living room, his expression of surprise was evident. It would have been almost funny if we weren't involved in such a delicate situation. However, he didn't ask what I was doin

    OthonI arrived at the hospital that morning determined to have a frank conversation with Mrs. Fisher. I knew she would be in her office, on the top floor of the imposing Central Hospital building. I didn't follow my usual work routine that morning. I didn't even stop by my own office to check for urgent demands. I had a clear purpose in mind and was determined to fulfill it.I still felt perplexed by the whole story behind my encounter with Karen in Fernando de Noronha. I could never imagine that Valquiria harbored such an obsession with me. I couldn't think of another word to describe her feelings. If what she felt for me was healthy, she would never have gone to such lengths to fulfill her desires.I couldn't even understand the mindset of a person like Valquíria. She grotesquely manipulated me. I couldn't think of a friendship between us in the future when everything she did in the past was shaped by lies and schemes.The fact that Karen arrived at the bathroom exactly when Valquí

    ColinI decided to face the challenge of telling Othon the whole truth in person, so I traveled to Curitiba right after the conversation with Valquíria. However, the fact that Valquíria was at her brother's house that weekend made my "mission" more complicated. The uncertainty of not being heard or, worse yet, not being believed, weighed heavily on my mind.With this burden on my shoulders, I sought support from Noah, who happened to be in the city as well. I explained the whole situation and asked for his help, along with Camila's. As Karen's best friend, Camila could increase my chances of meeting Karen, someone Othon would certainly listen to.With their help, I managed to find Karen and reveal the whole truth. Even with the uncertainty of the outcome, I chose to stay in Curitiba for a few more days. My work in investments allowed me that flexibility, so the city I was in didn't matter.I was determined to face the consequences of my actions and ensure that the truth came to light.

We fell into a routine now that our relationship no longer needed to be kept secret. In the morning, we took Otávio to school together and went to work. I had managed to adjust Karen's work schedule to be compatible with mine, which allowed us to pick up Otávio from school and have lunch together at her parent's house, then return to work.Having Karen by my side in all these everyday activities filled my heart with joy. Seeing how she interacted with Otávio, how we shared our work experiences, and how we supported each other was something I deeply valued.On the other hand, I had completely cut off contact with Valquíria.

He ran over, brimming with excitement, and threw himself into my arms, wishing me a happy birthday and revealing that the surprise had been prepared by his mother.

How dared she enter my house without permission?

My desire to confront Karen and Othon was stronger than any social etiquette. I cannot allow the man I love to be taken from me by another woman. Worse yet, a promiscuous woman who didn't think twice before sleeping with Othon just hours after meeting him.It was painful to see Karen's face lit up with a radiant smile, her eyes sparkling with excitement. As I made myself visible to everyone in the room, Karen looked from one to another, her expression shifting from joy to confusion and concern.I felt a wave of contempt rising within me.

Taking a deep breath, and trying to gather my courage, I finally got out of the car.I walked up to Letícia's door, and before ringing the doorbell, I hesitated for a second.

I even discussed with my mother the possibility of not allowing Colin to be part of our lives. She, with her wisdom and calmness, made me see that it wouldn't be fair to deny our child the right to know his father, as long as he was willing to be a positive presence."Daughter, we all make mistakes. If Colin truly wants to be present, you should give him that chance," my mom pointed out.But as the days passed in silence, I began to think that everything he had said was nothing but lies and deceit. Cynically, I thought he must be just like his twin brother, a liar. However, this realization didn't stop the sadness from settling in. I attributed these feelings to pregnancy horm

One day, without warning, someone rang the doorbell of our house, and when I opened the door, there he was, Osvaldo, the man I hadn't seen in years.My father, the stranger who had abandoned me. He looked older, and tired, but he still had that smile I remembered from childhood."Letícia, I...," he began, but couldn't finish the sentence.The shock left me paralyzed for a few seconds. I wanted to scream, cry, and ask why, but I just stood there, looking at him. Finally, I managed to say something."What are you doing here?"

Hearing about the crazy story involving not only Colin and his twin brother but also Othon's sister made me reflect not only on what was haunting him that night we met at the bar but also on what led me there.All of that stirred up a still-open wound in me.

When I decided to look for him, I imagined he might use all sorts of excuses to justify his rude behavior when I told him about the pregnancy. But it never crossed my mind that he would use the excuse that his twin brother had impersonated him.As I walked back home, trying to process everything he had told me, I found myself torn between believing or not believing this story. I didn't doubt that he had a twin brother; after all, that wasn't so extraordinary. What left me incredulous was that this brother could be so despicable as to impersonate Colin and mistreat the woman who was pregnant with his brother's child. But, as Colin himself had said, it wouldn't be difficult to find out if he was telling the truth about something so serious.When I

She looked radiant and beautiful, but the coldness with which she treated me quickly refocused my attention on what truly mattered at that moment.As we sat down, I still felt somewhat incredulous that Letícia had agreed to meet me. Even more shocking was that she had reached out to me, and set up the meeting. Now we could talk more calmly and clarify things between us."Thank you for coming, Letícia," I began, trying to find a friendly tone.She only nodded in agreement, her eyes not meeting mine directly.

I had the day free and wanted to make the most of it.I mentioned to my mom about my desire to start shopping, but also about Karen being on her honeymoon and not wanting to go alone. My mom then suggested that I invite Camila."You and Camila have been getting along so well, Letícia. Why don't you invite her to go with you? I'm sure she'd love to."She was right.
