In these past few months, I've been keeping to myself. For now, I can't engage in any conflicts with my ex's family. As the birth of this child approaches and everything is going according to plan, I only leave the house for doctor's appointments; otherwise, I prefer to stay home. Here, I have everything I need at the moment. I can't afford to make any mistakes and jeopardize everything now, just when I'm about to give birth.My ex has been accompanying me, along with his mother, to the appointments and exams. He hasn't missed a single one. But his mother doesn't give me any space. So, I've decided it's better to keep quiet for now. I can't risk losing everything when I'm so close to giving birth.I've had very few conversations with my lover, and as always, he understands my situation. He has promised to wait until my situation is resolved. The only thing he has asked is to have contact with the child, and he remains discreet. Of course, I agreed. Once the baby is born, I'll let him
In the past few months, I've been in an internal war, debating whether to accept my condition and live the truth or pretend that nothing is happening and continue in this situation, alone and abandoned like an old piece of furniture. And now, with my baby, everything is supposed to be easier. When I talk to the father of my baby, he always uplifts me, saying that everything will work out and I should stay strong. But if I change my mind, I know where to find him. It's a pity he's poor, damn it! Why does the guy I'm completely in love with have to be poor?I'm lying in bed in my room, feeling a bit of pain in the lower part of my belly, but I don't want to bother anyone. If the pain increases, I'll ask the maid to accompany me to the emergency room, but for now, I prefer to try and rest a bit. I feel like an obese person. I've gained so much weight, and this belly weighs a ton. Just as I'm about to fall asleep, I hear the doorbell. I don't want to be disturbed, so I turn to the corner
The ex-fiancé of the mother of my child knocked on my door, and I thought it was time to come clean and tell the whole truth. The child is mine, and I won't give up on raising him. She can have him, but I won't give up on my son. I love her too much, and I'm capable of anything to have her in my life. But right now, the greatest love of my life is my little one.She's pregnant with a boy, and I won't give up on raising my boy under any circumstances. Even though she promised not to keep me away from my son, for the past few months, she disappeared and barely talks to me on the phone occasionally. I haven't seen her, I can't follow the pregnancy, and I don't know if the baby is really okay.When he left my house, I felt relieved that I had opened up and that I would be able to enjoy my son from now on without having to hide from anyone or wait anxiously to know if everything is alright. Even though I insisted on seeing her, she never gave me her address and never showed up at my house
Melissa -I was sure that something wasn't right with me, I started feeling sick out of nowhere, at first I thought it could be something I ate and it would soon go away, but it didn't and now I'm here at the hospital after so much my parents and If they test my patience, it's not a big deal I'm sure, and after I've done those tests the doctor gave me I'll be able to rub it in their faces and prove that I was right in the world to say that I had absolutely nothing, Ricardo he doesn't even know that I'm here at the hospital doing tests, he was supposed to come over the weekend because he has some things to solve at the company, I preferred to stay here until he sorted it out with his ex fiancée and I think that finally next month, this will be resolved with the arrival of the baby into the world, so I want to see what her excuse will be for calling and bothering her, meanwhile without Ricardo knowing I had the house he bought renovated, he didn't tell me he bought it and yes my mother-
Ricardo -I arrived in Rio and went straight to the apartment, but Mel isn't there, I prefer not to call and wait for her, maybe she's at her mother's house, but I'll take the opportunity to see some things about the company while I wait for her.Before traveling I told my parents everything what I found out and my mother took care of the rest and in fact my parents seem to have liked to know that in fact the child was not mine, but they didn't want to say anything because they knew that inside I was I'm devastated and in fact I still am, it's like a piece of me has been ripped out I'm not going to lie it's hurting like hell, but I know that at some point this will pass, and now it's time to close this cycle that ended and start a new stage on the side of my wife and dedicate myself to my family, now that I've finally ended any contact I might have with that family I just want to show Melissa how much I love her and how much I can make her very happy.Melissa -I got home and I was st

I woke up to the smell of coffee. I opened my eyes and saw Ricardo sitting in the kitchen, drinking coffee. He smiled when he saw that I was awake."Good morning," he said. "How did you sleep?""I slept well," I said. "And you?""I slept well too," he said. "I'm so glad to be home."I smiled. "I'm glad you're home too," I said.We had coffee together and talked about our day. Ricardo told me about his trip, and I updated him on everything that had happened with Maria Eduarda. We laughed and talked for hours, and I felt so lucky to have Ricardo in my life.After we finish having breakfast, we take Maria Eduarda to the park. She had a lot of fun playing in the playground and on the swing. We also played with her, and we all had a great time.In the afternoon, we came home and had a special dinner. Maria Eduarda ate a lot and had a great time. We also had a lot of fun, and we all felt very happy.After dinner, we watched a movie together and then went to bed. I felt very happy to be with
A few days later, I went back to the company to see how things were going. I went to reception and the receptionist told me that Ricardo was busy. I asked to wait, and she told me she would let me know when she could see me.I waited for a few minutes, and then the receptionist came out of her room and told me that Ricardo could see me now.I went into his office and he was sitting at the table, with his secretary sitting next to him. I gave Ricardo a smile, but he didn't smile back. He just looked at his secretary and smiled at her.I felt a chill down my spine. I knew something was wrong.I sat in the chair across from his desk and asked how he was doing. He said he was fine, but I could tell he was lying. He was nervous and agitated.I asked about the project he was working on, but he said he couldn't talk about it. He said it was confidential.I knew he was lying. I knew he was hiding something from me.I looked over at his secretary and saw that she was smiling at me. She was hav

Melissa -Back then, when I decided to give love a new chance, I never imagined that this path would lead me to form a new family alongside such an incredible man as Ricardo. Today, I, Mellissa, can look back and say that I am truly happy and complete. Every step of that journey has brought me here, to this moment of fulfillment and fulfillment.The road of life is full of curves and surprises, and we often find ourselves at crossroads, not knowing exactly which way to go. However, by choosing to give love another chance, I took the first step towards a profound and positive transformation. Next to Ricardo, I found a partner, a friend and a love that surpasses all barriers.Our rapidly growing daughter is living proof of the love we share. Every smile, every achievement of hers, is a constant reminder that life is a valuable gift, full of simple joys and precious moments. Motherhood brought me challenges, but also unparalleled gratification, a deep connection with another human being
Today is the launch day of my project for Ricardo's company. The celebration cocktail party brings together all the people we care about: our families, our friends and co-workers. I look around, watching everyone chatting excitedly, smiling and enjoying the event. I can't help but smile too, feeling a wave of happiness wash over me.The lounge is elegantly decorated, the soft lights creating a welcoming mood. As I make my way through the crowd, greeting guests, I feel mixed emotions. It's a mixture of fulfillment for the project I've worked so hard to bring to fruition, and also the joy of having all these beloved faces come together to celebrate this special moment.My daughter is in the arms of a caring aunt, surrounded by laughter and affection. Seeing the happiness in her eyes fills me with gratitude and reminds me that everything I do is for her, for the future we are building for her.Ricardo is beside me, proud and radiant. He takes my hand, and the contact is comforting. "You
Ricardo got home and, when he opened the door, he found Ane and I talking animatedly. His eyes lit up upon seeing the scene, and he smiled warmly. "Looks like I'm missing quite a conversation."Ane and I laughed, and I got up to greet him with a kiss. "Welcome back darling. You have no idea the deep conversations you're missing out on."Ricardo joked, feigning indignation. "Looks like I'm being left out of the women's secrets here."Ane intervened, laughing. "Nothing like that, Ricardo. We were just sharing deep thoughts about life, motherhood and the importance of having a great friend around."He winked at me and then at Ane. "Well, then I guess I have a lot to learn."We decided that instead of getting buried in deep thought, it was time to get together and enjoy a nice dinner together. As we sat at the table, I felt grateful to have these two amazing people in my life.During dinner, conversations flowed naturally. Ane and Ricardo had a special chemistry, a unique blend of friends
And here comes the most clueless godmother on the face of the earth, Ane hasn't changed a thing, year in and year out she's still the same clueless, but I love her anyway._ Where is the most beautiful baby in this world? Ane asked as my baby plopped down on her lap.I keep admiring the interaction between the two, my daughter loves her godmother, who in turn does whatever she wants, now the two are rolling around on the living room floor._Who is the godmother's chubby girl?The baby laughs as Ane tickles her tummy._And I don't even get a hi? Ask approaching the two._ Are you jealous friend?_You're welcome?Of course I'm not jealous, it's just that all the attention used to be mine, now it seems like I don't exist.But that's normal, everyone gets here at home asking about the baby, they find me on the street and ask about the baby, no one asks how Ricardo and I are doing anymore._A friend, I'm here. Ane says coming to hug me._Two hours later you remembered that I exist?_And no
MelissaNow that everything is resolved, Ricardo and I decided to take a vacation and enjoy our daughter, who with all this running around ended up being left behind, she was at my mother's house and I need to pay attention to her.I was looking forward to getting home and seeing my daughter. I missed her and wanted to spend as much time with her as possible.Ricardo and I took the plane and arrived in Rio de Janeiro the next day. My mother received us in her house with great joy.She told us that my daughter was fine and that she was looking forward to seeing us.Ricardo and I went to my daughter's room. She was sleeping in her crib, beautiful and peaceful.I approached her and hugged her very affectionately. She opened her eyes and smiled at me.I was so happy to see her. I kissed her and told her I loved her very much.Ricardo also hugged his daughter and said he missed her.We spend the whole day with our daughter. We played with her, bathed her and fed her.She was so happy to be
I was sitting in Ricardo's car, with him beside me, as Ricardo's investigators drove us home. I was relieved that it was all over, but I was still confused about why Ana had done what she had done."Are you still thinking about it?" Richard asked."Yes," I said. "I don't understand why she did that.""Maybe she was in love with me," Ricardo said."But she never showed anything," I said. "She was always professional with me.""Perhaps she was hiding her feelings," Ricardo said. "Or maybe she was pressured by someone.""But who?" I asked."I don't know," Ricardo said. "But I'll find out."**The next day, Ricardo took me to his company. He wanted to show me something."What is that?" I asked, seeing an open laptop on his desk."It's the video," Ricardo said.He showed me the video. I saw the moment when Ana placed the camera in Ricardo's room."See," Richard said. "Someone is accompanying her."I saw a shadowy figure move in the background of the video."Who is it?" I asked."I don't kn
I got up running with my cell phone in my hand and went straight to Ricardo's office, who was startled when I burst in. "Are you crazy honey? What a scare you gave me walking in like that." "Sorry." "The house is on fire, for you to come in like that?" "No, but it will if we don't do something about it soon. Look at this." I said and while I stretched out my hand with the cell phone for him to watch the new video." Ricardo took the cell phone from my hand and watched the excerpt that was sent, he had no expression on his face and he didn't even seem nervous about that situation, while I'm desperate about it all. I can't imagine this video going around the Internet, what our families will imagine of us, my parents would be very disappointed in me, even though they know their daughter well. "Ricardo says something." "What do you want me to say? That we had good sex that day?" Ricardo jokes even at a time like this. "I'm so angry with you, you know? You can be serious at least on
I was afraid. I did not know what to do. I had just received a call from an unknown number. The person on the phone said they had intimate videos of me and Ricardo. They wanted a million dollars or they would release the videos.I didn't have a million dollars. I did not know what to do. I was scared and ashamed. I needed to talk to Ricardo, but I didn't know how.I decided to go to his company. I knew he was busy, but I needed to talk to him.I arrived at the company and went to his office. He was busy, but he saw me and called me in."What's up Melissa?" he asked.I took a deep breath and told her everything that had happened. I told him about the phone call and the videos and the money.Richard was shocked. He didn't know what to say. He just sat there, looking at me, for a long time."I don't know what to do," he finally said. "I don't have a million dollars.""Me neither," I said. "But we have to do something.""I don't know what to do," he repeated.I was starting to lose hope.
