April remained motionless, with her gaze fixed on Nelson, eager to discover the name of the woman who had gotten in the way of her marriage. She was not willing to lose Luis José; She preferred death to giving up the only man she loved madly.— Are you telling me that you know the woman my husband is supposedly cheating on me with? How is that possible? he asked, his voice strained.- Exact. "I know who he is," Nelson replied. And I am sure that when you know it, it will make a great impression on you, that is why I advise you from now on to try to take it calmly.—Who is that slut who is sleeping with my husband? —April asked, while her heart beat furiously.—Do you remember the medical congress that Luis José attended in Cancún? —Nelson continued.- Of course! It was I who convinced him to go, to have a perfect excuse to return to Mexico. I had my reasons for doing it. But what does that conference have to do with my husband's alleged mistress?- A lot. Do you remember that Ana Paul
In the midst of my mother's nervous breakdown after my father's unexpected death, the doctors sedated her and took her to the recovery room. We were both devastated, but I, in particular, was carrying the weight of a secret that threatened to destroy us.While my mother rested, I took refuge in one of the clinic's hallways. The window there was huge, and through it I looked at the city landscape. The view was impressive, the pure air and tranquility filtered through my pain. I needed to clear my mind, even for a moment, from the storm that was slowly drowning me.Suddenly, a hand touched my back. When I turned around, I found Luis José.— I didn't mean to scare you, I just saw you here and I wanted to get closer. How do you feel? -asked.—How do you want me to feel? My father just died, my mother is on the verge of collapse, and I am to blame for her death. —I confessed, feeling like a real monster.—Why do you think you are responsible for what happened to your father? —Luis José inq
Days after…The pain of losing my father was still unbearable. The absence of his laughter, his hugs and his advice left me with a void that was impossible to fill. My mother, even more affected, constantly wondered why God had decided to take him away so soon, when he still had so much left to live. Together, they had shared an entire life, and now I was faced with the uncertainty of how to move forward without him.But there was something else that tormented me: the truth. Knowing that his death could have been avoided if he had not discovered my relationship with Luis José. That burden weighed on me, and did not allow me to find peace in the midst of sadness.And then there was April. Since Dad's departure, his behavior had changed drastically. He treated me differently, as if he was hiding something. Despite not being blood sisters, we had always been inseparable. But now, there were secrets between us, and I didn't know what to do about it.My parents always said that April had a
The tension in the room was imminent. April's expression reflected shock and despair. She felt lost, not knowing how to vent her anger. Humiliated and despised by my father, resentment grew inside her.The lawyer spoke:—Gentlemen, we have concluded with the last will of Mr. Pedro Rincón. I only have to give Ana Paula this letter, written in her own handwriting. The content must be known only to her.April could no longer hold back the anger that was burning inside her and she exploded:-No! This can't be all! My father can't have excluded me from his will like that. There must be a mistake. Let me see that document. There is a plot here, it cannot be true that he has not left me any of his fortune.The surprise was reflected in all of us. Neither April nor my mother were included in the will. The lawyer tried to calm her down:—Mrs. April, please try to control yourself. There is no error. Mr. Pedro was clear and precise in his will.But April did not stop, her patience was filled an
April trembled, but not because of the cold of the night, but because of the courage that burned in her chest. Everything he had experienced, the secrets he had jealously guarded, now crumbled before Rubén's reappearance. The man who had dragged her into a world of intrigue and danger, and who now threatened to take her out of her comfort zone.She looked around, making sure no one was spying on her. He couldn't allow his dark past to be discovered. Rubén's voice sounded on the other end of the phone, full of malice:—What is it that I haven't found out about? Finish talking once and for all, Rubén."Calm down, dear," he replied. You don't have to be like this. Remember that we have been partners and lovers for a long time, and it is not convenient for you to have me as an enemy.— If you don't tell me why you called, I swear I will hang up on you and change my cell phone number so you can leave me alone.— Hahaha, that won't be necessary, dear. I'm in Mexico now. I am part of the med
The Secret in my Father's LetterWithout a doubt, that day had been a true whirlwind of emotions. I was facing a man I thought I knew, but who in reality had always been a wolf in sheep's clothing. His charming personality had fooled us all, especially my father.Nelson left the room, making it clear to me that he was willing for me to be his wife at any price. His interest was not so much in my fortune as in my fulfilling the role of wife. For him, this had become an obsession. I couldn't accept that I had been unfaithful to him, although throughout our engagement, I never wanted to give myself to him.It was clear to me that Nelson never loved me. His wounded and macho pride drove him to love me, but also to take complete revenge on Luis José.After Nelson left the room, I sat on the bed and started crying. I had held back my tears for a long time so as not to show weakness in front of my mother, who was already suffering enough from my father's absence.Suddenly, my hand landed on
I felt nervous and with a knot in my stomach imagining my meeting with Luis José. This time it would be different: I was willing to fight for his love and, above all, to ensure that my son grew up with his real father.Once at the clinic, I went to Luis José's office. He couldn't imagine the surprise I had prepared for him. Without announcing my presence, I opened the door and gasped as I found the worst scene my eyes could see. Luis José and my sister Abril were involved in a forbidden passion on the desk. The world fell apart around me, destroying all the hopes I had once again placed on saving this relationship.Luis José, full of shame, was the first to react when he saw me:—Holy shit, Ana Paula! This shouldn't have happened.April looked at me cynically, her expression denoting mockery and satisfaction. At that moment I understood that I was the one left out in that equation.Heartbroken and all my hopes shattered, I decided to leave in a hurry. My son and I had no place in Luis
I entered the house with the keys that the lawyer had given me, but I did not expect the shock that was going to get me. When I entered the main room, what I found was tremendous, especially because I did not expect to have to see with the naked eye the hidden charms of the plastic artist. He, for his part, was as surprised as I was. Without being able to do anything else in view of the embarrassing and unexpected situation, he only managed to cover with his hands what looked quite prominent in size and which had also made a great impression on me.—Weren't you taught to knock on the door before entering, Miss What's Your Name?— Well… I… uh… actually you are to blame, because you should have closed the bedroom door. Furthermore, I know that Mr. Barradas told him that I was coming and for that reason he gave me the keys to the house. The one who should have been ready to receive me was you. And cover up because you're going to get a cold.—I think you're the one who has to leave the r
