Soon the memories that hurt the most continued to be transmitted in her head.

It only took the blink of an eye for Brandon to see Crystal raise his right hand with so much hatred, so much helplessness, and in the end, he felt it smash into his right cheek.

"I'm not your lighting machine, make that clear, idiot!" Crystal said just before feeling how the women took her, one on each side, to guide her back to the room.

Brandon put his hand on his cheek and then looked at her. The mocking smile was painted on his face. She was too naive if she thought that that blow would make him regret what he was doing to her.

"It's too late, dear innocent!” Brandon raised his voice as he saw how they took her away from him.

He could be strong, for the first time Crystal proved that she was strong before him and for the first time, Brandon felt like he wasn't fighting the wall. The game became more and more fun. It would be a pleasure to continue playing.

By that moment the memories were already h

    Her eyes, her gestures, the way she held her chopsticks, the way she smiled when letting him know that the food was delicious. She was simply a dream, a dream he never wanted to part with.It was a good time to admit it, he was in love with her. He didn't know when that happened, it just happened and that's it. He was in love with the woman who could be that love from the past.Now that he had her closer, he realized that she was more beautiful than he himself thought, that time she danced in that dress, that time he saw her dancing the bride and groom dance with another man, the time he saw her do what he wanted at family dinners, she truly was one of a kind, the only woman he wanted in his life forever."I'm done," Crystal said, moving the container away from her with a genuine smile on her face.Brandon looked at her. For a second she was again the same innocent girl she must have been before the marriage that had hurt her so much. Once again he could see the same little girl who m

    Back at the company, knowing Crystal was working and that she was sure to be late, he walked to the company exit and just when he felt like he was about to get on the elevator, the sounds of a woman's heels were heard. It was Crystal."Crystal," he called, making the elevator stop so she could enter as well. "Is something wrong, Crystal?”"An emergency came up and I need the team to help me with everything that just came up," she said quickly.In Brandon's eyes she looked truly desperate for what was happening. If only his own wife had the confidence to tell her husband what she was going through, he would certainly help her."What do you need?" Brandon asked without looking at her, as if that way showed that he didn't care."I just need one person who can be the witness of all the work I have to do for the new project. That's all, I just hope someone is awake or at least has the time to come.”"I can help you," Brandon said simply.Everything was silent for a moment, Brandon's gaze

    Time coming back, time she didn't seem to enjoy anymore. Having rolled over a thousand times in her bed, wanting to find the right position to rest when the reality was that it was her mind along with the memories that wouldn't let her rest. At what moment did everything change between them? At what point did she start begging for a minute of his attention? It wasn't that in the past Brandon had always seemed to be there for her but at least Tábata knew that as soon as he called her, she would be there, a little later, a little earlier but always counting on her presence.The memories came back to her. In the past there were only three: Brandon, Wyatt, and her. At that moment nothing worried her more than Brandon always seeing her love.Three in the morning, what could Brandon be doing at that moment?

    Crystal picked up her things without waiting for her husband. If only she had looked at him, she would have realized that the only intention he had was to tell her that they made a good team, that there was nothing they couldn't do, but unfortunately he realized that Crystal was prouder than he imagined she could be. "Hey, Brandon, can we talk for a minute?" Enrique asked."Yes, is something wrong?”"It's urgent." The man communicated walking forward, making Brandon follow him.With a thousand ideas in his mind, wanting to know what he had done wrong in Enrique's eyes, he followed him. He didn't want any more problems, the ones he had were enough.Enrique then arrived at Brandon's office, passing him first as if he were the owner. "Now, what did I do wrong?" Brandon asked, taking his place."Is it true that you worked with Crystal on the project?”"Yes, why?" Brandon answered without worrying much about what his friend was going to say."And you just say it like that?”Brandon sighe

    The memory was slightly erased from her mind."Miss, you can come in, Mr. Lambert is already waiting for you." The secretary said, making her come out of her world of memories. "Thank you very much," Tábata said, taking her bag and her black folder and then continuing on the way to Brandon's office.It was enough for her to open the door to meet that being who was always going to be for her world to destabilize. Her heart began to beat harder, a cold sweat ran through her body knowing that those feelings couldn't be real, not when Brandon didn't love her.He was just always going to steal her breath. Simply him and his divine perfection as a man.“Tábata,” Brandon said as he got up from his place to go to her.She smiled. "We haven't seen each other in a while. I thought you had forgotten about me.”"Don't say that, Tábata.”"Why not? I've been trying to call you many times but I see you've had a lot of work.”"Tábata.”"Anyway, I don't think it's less important than what I'm about t

    Pacing back and forth, knowing that if he kept trying to work, his thoughts would be blocked by the image of Crystal as had been happening since the last time they were alone working on something that Crystal clearly could have done while he let her suffer. Wanting to disconnect from all that, Brandon left his office with the idea of ​​​​going for a coffee by himself while the images of Crystal faded from his head.Walking towards that place where he could have coffee and a few cookies, he met Crystal's secretary.Without a doubt he would always find something of her wherever he went."Mr. Lambert, good afternoon.”"Good afternoon, Eliot." He said, wanting to resist the urge to ask about his wife. "Excuse me," she said with a smile on her face, ready to leave."And what about Miss Bennett? Haven't you asked for the reports that I have?" Brandon asked knowing that clearly wasn't going to happen."No, yesterday I told you that Miss Crystal didn't need them for this week.”"Oh, you can

    When they finally arrived at the house that Crystal and Brandon had been sharing for so long, he opened the door for her so she could come down more quickly. Now that he noticed it a little more, now that he thought about what their trip had been, a trip in silence, without much to say, without words from one to the other, Crystal letting him see how tired she was at the same time that she closed her eyes slightly and got lost in her thoughts or perhaps, in nothingness, Brandon realized how true was that she didn't look good at all.If it had been up to him, he would have gone to the nearest hospital but the truth is that neither of them owed anything to the other for them to show each other all kindness when before they had only shown each other the desire they had to end each other. "Come on, Crystal, we're here," Brandon spoke kindly.Crystal got out of the car carefully.Brandon was dying with the need to be the one to help her out of the car, holding her hand until he could take

    In front of the desk, sitting in front of the chair that Brandon occupied and the one he was not occupying at the moment, Tábata smiled, she would carry out her plan calmly, she would make no one suspect, she would be genuine as she always was with the difference that now it was a lie, she was not willing to put up with Brandon's mistreatment anymore, she had given him everything but had never gotten anything back. She had given him the opportunity to love her slowly, slowly, almost without him noticing it himself, but he was simply blinded by the world around him and then, by a woman who arrived suddenly, of whom no one knew of her existence, to pass to be Mrs. Lambert. Brandon must be arriving and she was willing to wait a little longer for him. The conversation she had had with Brandon's mother came to mind. It had to work, it had to work whether she wanted it or not because if she was discovered, the whole world would fall apart. Resting their cups on the table of that cafete

    TWO DAYS LATER"So this is the end?" Brandon asked as he stopped with Tábata's suitcases.Tabata smiled immediately. "It's not the end, I already told you, I've told you thousands of times," she said, wanting and hoping that Brandon was okay.She knew better than anyone how much it had cost him to get to that point where Brandon could now dress as a confident man, a man who went against everything and everyone no matter what. For him life had not been simple at all, for him life had always been that way, stumble after stumble with the difference that now he knew how to go against that.The last thing Tábata wanted was for her best friend and almost soul brother to relapse once again. He just didn't deserve it, he just didn't, of all people he didn't. He had already fought enough for things to be different. He had fought enough, Brandon couldn't just fall into the flames of his grandfather's hell once again. "You're going to be okay, Brandon, you're going to be okay," she said, cares

    ONE MONTH LATERExactly one month had passed since the last time Brandon Lambert had heard from the woman he loved most in his life. A month had passed since that moment of pain where he stayed on his knees in that airport in France wanting to think that at any moment Crystal was going to appear to illuminate his life, to make him strong when he was losing all his energy, a month had passed and the truth was that nothing he had done seemed to serve any purpose. Crystal simply seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth.No one knew anything about Wyatt in the same way. Even Brandon had reached the end of his desperation that he had gone to his cousin, just to ask if she could know anything about Wyatt. She clearly told him that she had no contact with him since the moment he broke off their engagement.As Brandon investigated further, he began to think that Crystal was always a fake, she just wanted to have the power to leave with the person she really wanted, Tábata had bee

    Without caring about anything, leaving the doors of the car that Brandon was getting out of, he arrived at the airport as he himself had proposed, he didn't know much about where she was going, he only had in mind the flight schedule, everything that he could do was run, run and run and believe that at any moment his eyes would be able to see the same beautiful woman with whom he had shared the previous night.People only saw him running like a crazy man, the women thinking that it was a romantic story in which he had done so much damage to the woman he loved the most, the woman he loved most in life, but in the end he realized his mistakes and now he went after her in the hope of finding her there. While men thought and saw him as a crazy man whose life was passing away, of course those who thought that were the same ones who had never felt love firsthand."Crystal, Crystal!" Brandon started shouting throughout the airport. He no longer cared who people saw him or how they were seein

    To say that hatred grew in Brandon's heart was an understatement. He felt something beyond hatred. His best friend, the person who said he loved him the most, was the same person who had separated him from his great childhood love. "How could you, Tabata?”"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, Brandon." She looked down."It's because of you that I couldn't go behind her!”"Now I'm telling you, go after her, go and tell her how much you love her, don't let her go because she's about to board with Wyatt for France.”“What?!”"I'm sorry, Brandon, I'm so sorry with all my heart.”"That's not enough, Tábata, you are going to pay for this!” He said the moment he was about to leave.Laughter filled the office. "It's a shame that it's a child who is playing at love. Now I understand Wyatt's words, Crystal doesn't deserve a man like you. If you want to go after her, heal yourself and accept that you humiliated her and were the first to extinguish the flame of her love.” Passing close to him, Tábata left

    Without stopping thinking over and over again about the words that Tábata had said to him the previous night, thinking that she could be right, he had to let Crystal be happy with Brandon. He couldn't help but continue thinking about the truth that she had given him. Tábata was not pregnant but Crystal was, on top of that they loved each other but the truth was that he couldn't allow Crystal, a woman who was so valuable, to stay with a jerk like Brandon. An immature man who had done so much to her. He deserved nothing in life but death itself.A little out of alignment, Wyatt arrived at his office and as he sat down, on the desk he saw a white envelope and with fine ink it had Wyatt's name written on it. That letter seemed to be for him.With great curiosity he began to unfold the letter. Who could have given him something like that?Then he started reading…Dear Wyatt….I hope you haven't forgotten my words in that cafeteria when I told you that I would think about your proposal, I t

    Brandon and Crystal, those names sounded excellent together, it was a shame they had never been seen that way, it was a shame it was Crystal's eyes that filled with tears every time Brandon was near her, it was as if his presence would hurt in the same way it healed. By that moment, Crystal could already realize that she was facing a human being, a person who had just shown himself transparent to her, from whom the thousand chains that imprisoned him had fallen, from whom the white veils had been revealed in his against and had fallen to show Crystal who he truly was.Crystal and Brandon, two people who had dreams alike, people whose lives had been destroyed by other people.And while Brandon talked about that past that hurt so much in his soul, and while Crystal thought about his words, she realized that all she wanted to do was leave clean and that way she could start over in life with that little one who God had power in her womb. It was time to tell him that she was the girl who

Wyatt asked, not knowing why she had called him in the middle of the night.It's been a long time since they saw each other, it's been a long time since they even met up to talk about the past, or about the good times that the three of them had and that made them not want to part with each other as well as the other.The moments together, the moments when Tábata couldn't leave Brandon's side for fear that he was going to miss his true mission, those days when she thought it was just her in his life were already behind him and there was nothing to do, now another person occupied the place that she a
