Ex-Fiancée -Wow, how strange! Once again, I arrived home, and there's no one here, even though it's Sunday. But it's actually quite nice, the silence and tranquility, you know? I'm here wondering what will happen to us from now on. We're in uncertainty.I can't find either of them to know what's really going on here. I came here just to pick up some things to leave at my fling's house until Ricardo returns from this damn trip. I prefer staying there because I have peace and don't have to deal with my father.Now it seems like everyone is just fending for themselves. But it's strange because usually, on Sundays at this hour, they're always at home, especially now that we're broke. They should have been home. I packed a small bag and lay down for a bit, but once again, I ended up falling asleep.I feel someone shaking me, and I assume it's my mother who has arrived. Now the interrogation session will begin because when my mother wants to be annoying, she succeeds. I speak to her withou
Ricardo -This morning, I left Melissa sleeping and rushed to the store to buy a real engagement ring for her. I want her to understand that I do want to stay married, even though it started as a joke. But for me, we're still together, and we can make it official in a religious ceremony later on. I never imagined getting married like this, so quickly, but I'm genuinely happy that it happened. Now Melissa is truly mine, on paper. I am possessive, and the thought of anyone touching my woman drives me crazy. I love her and take care of her, and I'll always be cautious.I put the ring box in my pocket, and we head out. She thinks we're just repeating our first date, but little does she know that I'm going to propose to her, or rather, ask her to continue our marriage. She's so relaxed here; she's a different woman. The Melissa I first met, shy and fearful, doesn't exist anymore. She has transformed into a powerful, independent woman, and I'm loving every bit of her. She faces everything h
Father of the Ex-Fiancée -Finally, the big day has arrived. I've been eagerly awaiting this moment, and now I'm here, excited. My lawyer warned me that I'm taking a big risk by running away, but I have nothing to lose.My wife abandoned me, my daughter, that wretched girl, turned against me as well. All I have left is to disappear in this world and live peacefully in another country. Since they decided to abandon me, I don't want anything to do with them. My ex-wife called me multiple times, but I didn't answer. I responded to her messages, and that was it.Afterward, my lawyer brought me another SIM card, and I changed my phone number. Besides, the previous number I used was for business, and I really couldn't keep it.Now I'm heading to the airport. I already have my ticket, and I'll board at lunchtime. I'm going to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. I doubt anyone will find me there. I'll have plenty of drinks and enjoy my retirement. Once I board that plane, I'll leave behind
Melissa -It's a pity that our trip is coming to an end after long 20 days, and we have thoroughly enjoyed each day in this city that never sleeps. The city operates 24 hours a day, which is great because we can choose the time we want to have fun. We went out every day at different times and enjoyed every corner of this city. We had sex in the craziest places you can imagine. I let go and discovered a side of me that I didn't even know existed, a libertine side, and yes, I enjoyed it a lot. I'm rebuilding myself alongside Ricardo. He makes me feel special all the time, and I simply feel incredible with him. He values me and prioritizes me constantly.I feel so good, and honestly, I don't want to go back to Brazil right now. But Ricardo has been away from his business for longer than he planned, so we need to return. Now, one thing we have to decide is how we are going to handle our marriage. I don't want to live in different cities, so either we try to make it work by living together
Melissa -I called my parents, informing them of my arrival and letting them know that everything is fine. I asked to schedule a lunch with them so we can talk, and I mentioned that Ricardo will be coming with me. My father seems a bit furious, but he has nothing to do with my life.I understand that he wants to protect me, but if I don't try, I'll never know if it can work. Everyone wanted me to step out of my comfort zone and start living again, so that's what I'm doing. I'm embracing this love, and yes, I admit, I'm in love with Ricardo.I want to live this love fully and experience everything he can offer me. The best part is that Ricardo wants the same. If it doesn't work out, that's okay too. The important thing is that we're trying, and deep down, I have a great fear. My fear is not trying and regretting it bitterly. I refuse to carry that burden.Ricardo told me that we need to decide where we'll live. Now, thinking about it more carefully, where would be best? If I truly want
Melissa:As I expected, my parents were incredibly sweet to Ricardo. They treated him like a son, and I wouldn't expect anything less from them. They know how responsible I am with my actions—I never do anything without thinking it through and being certain of what I'm doing.What surprised them, though, was when I mentioned that I was thinking about moving to São Paulo. Despite that, they accepted my decision well.Now I'm packing a small suitcase for a few days because I won't stay there for long. I'm going with a little fear of what awaits me. I don't know how I'll be received. Even though Ricardo tells me everything will be fine, I'm scared. Will my in-laws like me? Several questions linger in my mind, and that familiar anxiety and anticipation start to creep in.Ricardo is amazing. He constantly tries to reassure me that everything will work out, that his parents are wonderful and have accepted me without any issue. He tells me not to worry about it, that his biggest concern is h
Melissa -If this girl thinks she can get under my skin while I'm around, she's mistaken. Poor thing, I actually feel sorry for her. Even bankrupt and screwed over without a penny to her name, she's still arrogant.I can't fathom what Ricardo saw in this girl. She's full of pride and lacks humility. I find it ridiculous that Ricardo has to support her. Okay, she's having his baby, but she's not his responsibility.She could very well work, but no, she can't because she's pregnant. It's like she's in a terminal state where she can't do anything. I thought he would even pay for a maid for her since he's so generous. I knew something was completely wrong with this story because she wouldn't be here for no reason.But I'll make it clear to Ricardo to get rid of her as soon as possible. She can move out tomorrow since his apartment is all set and ready to be lived in. So, there's no reason for her to stay here bothering my in-laws for more days now that the princess already has housing, fo
Ex-Fiancée -If Ricardo and that little woman of his think I'm going to settle for the crumbs he's giving me, they're sorely mistaken. I didn't come this far to get nothing because what he offered me is nothing. Living in a flat, who lives in a flat? A room with a bathroom and a mini kitchen.He must be crazy if he thinks I'll be content with just that. And as if that weren't enough, he won't pay for a housekeeper and said I have to fend for myself if I want to survive. Me, doing laundry and ironing? Where does he get off thinking I'll do housework? I wasn't born for that. I'm a princess.I won't make their lives easy at all. Either they give me what I want, or I won't give them a moment's peace. I'll make their lives a living hell no matter the cost. I have nothing to lose anymore, so whatever comes my way is a bonus, and they should be prepared.Finally, my ex-father-in-law told me the whole truth about my parents, and by now they must be somewhere in the world enjoying the money th
