There was only one way for them to come up with a plan. He had to talk to Crystal and tell her that even if that wasn't right, they had to take advantage of the situation and adopt a baby, a helpless son. But they had to talk about that.With Brandon's secretary at his side, she called him."Yes, sir, how can I help you?”"I want you to prepare everything for a romantic dinner today, in the house, I want you to fill everything with flowers, I want you to hire the best chef, I want you to take care of even the smallest detail, today I will have a special dinner with my wife.”“Yes sir.”And without further ado, Brandon left his office. He had so much to fix that night and he had to start by checking the places where they could adopt a child. After all, he was going to be a father sooner than he expected and it wasn't that it bothered him, on the contrary, it was an idea that made him happy. He and Crystal were finally going to be parents because no matter how it turned out, they would
And just like that, the minutes passed. Just the kind of dinner no one had given her, just the kind of dinner only a man could give to the woman he was loving. That was the reality for Brandon even if he didn't know it, that was the reality in his heart, he was falling in love with Crystal in the way he never believed.And the more he shared with her, he realized that she could be the person he once came to see as his everything when the pain was suffocating him.In this way they managed to spend the entire night, losing track of time, laughing at each other's occurrences, feeling how the tide of the purest feelings made them its prey, now everything there was a disaster between one and the other. From one moment to the next they seemed to be so intimate, from one moment to the next, they seemed to know each other in the best way. And it was the same liquor that was already running through the veins of both of their bodies, it was the same liquor that was making them see reality and c
It was in this way that Brandon was able to take Crystal's face in his hands so he could look directly into her eyes. That's how he realized that the woman who was making his heart beat like only one in the past had done, was starting to beat faster than it should."Please, Crystal, tell me what you're talking about.”"Don't hurt me anymore, stop it, Brandon, stop all this.”"Crystal.”"I haven't been able to forgive you for what you did to me and you continue hurting me.”"Crystal.”"Just let me leave your life, so I can be grateful to you for the rest of eternity.”"Crystal!” Brandon called louder when he realized that his wife had gone into a state of shock.Crystal finally looked him in the eyes and it was in that second that she realized that for the first time, a man was looking at her with love and respect for her person. Not being able to resist anymore what the two were feeling there, Brandon, holding Crystal's face in his hands, not being able to bear seeing her lips away fr
When Crystal was finally in the room, she was unable to concentrate on anything other than what had happened that night. With the white robe wrapped around her body and with a towel on her head, Crystal took a seat on the bed. With so many things in her head, with so many memories that were repeated there as if it were a movie, on the bureau, exactly where she had her gaze almost fixed, she managed to see one more photo. The same photo that had been in the room they had left behind was now a smaller size of the same photo. The same smile on the faces of both of them, Brandon had not been as happy as that day or at least, at least it was that one night ago that same smile had been seen on his face.Carefully and in her hands, she took the photo from the bureau. She didn't know how or why but she had gotten involved with Brandon while he surely had Tábata on his mind."Why? Why did you make me fall for your charms?" Crystal asked with two tears coming out of her eyes. Without fu
8:30 p.m., clad in a black dress, which revealed her beautiful shoulders, her brown hair tied up to perfection, the cleavage between her chest that was not vulgar and a whole world ahead in which surely, her opinion and her strength were going to try to be trampled. The world around her didn't matter anymore. Armed with her cousin, Crystal arrived at that place where there should be no room for her husband, Brandon Lambert. Her grandfather's birthday celebration was just taking place.As soon as the doors opened, Crystal's eyes fell on all those people who had been invited only to be trampled by her grandfather when he said how well the company's sales had been going and of course, thanks to the fact that he sold his granddaughter as if she were anything else.Brandon was already there, it had been a lie when she said dhe couldn't attend due to health problems.Brandon's heart seemed to resent those words when she said it over the phone. And now that he saw reality, he realized that C
Frightened, Crystal moved from the desk without dropping the documents she had already found. The person looking at her was the same one who was stalking her to find the destiny he had imposed on her. The smile on his depredator was something she couldn't stand no matter how hard she tried."What is this all about?” She asked annoyingly, what she was beginning to feel for her grandfather was just hate, hatred and nothing more than that."Have you not read them? Or, do you once again need time to realize what it says and what you have committed to do?”"Tell me once and for all what this is about!”"Don't you dare yell at me!”"I won't do it as long as you tell me what's happening!”"This is a new contract, my dear granddaughter, haven't you read it? Do you need someone to come and translate it for you? Do you need Brandon to come and find out about this?”Crystal shook her head, not wanting to see the monster that had raised her. Her grandfather was never good, her grandfather only wa
While at the party, Brandon kept observing the hallways of the Bennett house without seeing his wife coming out from anywhere, something was not right and now that he thought about it, what was right in his life from the moment they two had joined in marriage? Nothing was right. Nothing.At his side, Crystal's cousin arrived."Do you know where my cousin is?" Sebastian asked, drinking from his wine. Brandon looked at him. "I saw she came in with you, where is she?”"Well, you see she's not with me." Sebastian said, watching Brandon worry.Now that he thought about it, he had seen his wife and her grandfather talking. That could only mean one thing, one thing only. Crystal, his wife, was in trouble.Just as Brandon decided to go look for her, his cell phone immediately started ringing. Brandon looked at Sebastian as if asking his permission to answer before seeing his wife."Do whatever you want," Sebastian said, walking forward to see his cousin.And without anything stopping him,
For her part, Crystal didn't know what else to think, first he was the man who had treated her with so much love one night before and now he was the man who had just watched everything from a distance while she was humiliated by her own grandfather along with Mr. Lambert.Scared or rather, wanting to look like she was scared when she was really happy about what she had just seen they had done to Crystal, Tábata went after them.Right at the exit she saw them, all that her eyes witnessed was the detestable way in which Crystal pushed Brandon aside as if she didn't want him to be her protection at that moment and given the circumstances, who would like a man to act as her protection in front of everyone when the reality is that he had made fun of her from a few meters back?"Let go of me and let me go," she asked with tears in her eyes."I won't do it! Why do you see everything how only you want to see it? Why don't you realize the reality? Why don't you realize that now I have stayed h
