CHAPTER 25

last update Last Updated: 2024-11-28 10:03:17

Thousands of memories in her mind, none of them good, she didn't even remember a single moment of complete happiness with Brandon. She had been with him only once, he had been the first man in her life but in the end, for what? None of that meant anything when he was in love with another woman?

Lying on the bed, having her cell phone next to her, thinking that at any moment Brandon would call her to see how she was doing, her cell phone rang.

She carefully took it. No, it wasn't Brandon, how long was she going to understand that she didn't care?

It was Wyatt's call.

"This is Crystal, do you need anything?" She asked confidently.

"Crystal, it's me, Wyatt.”

"Yes, do you need something?”

"Wooo! A little aggressive, isn't it?”

Crystal closed her eyes. Wyatt wasn't to blame for everything that was happening to Crystal with Brandon.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Wyatt, no, I don't know what's wrong with me, I'm sorry. Do you need something?”

"You owe me dinner for a long time, don't you remember?

    And just after Crystal told Wyatt what she wanted to eat and handed him the ingredients, Wyatt asked her to simply sit in the small dining room that was in the large kitchen of that house.Crystal didn't look good at all, nor did she look exactly bad enough to take her to a hospital. Crystal just seemed like she was tired, with no one close to her to help her, to listen to her, to offer her a shoulder if she wanted to cry or even to share all those jokes that she wanted to laugh at. There was Wyatt, at her side, wanting her to see him as the person she could trust, the person who could tell her anything she wanted."I will be the best chef in the world!" Wyatt said, putting on his apron to start cooking.Crystal, sitting almost in front of him, couldn't help but smile at Wyatt's words and attitude. Never before would I have imagined that this way they would end up sharing a good moment just when I needed it most."Faker!" Crystal said smiling."Why do you think I'm a fake? You don't

    Being careful but at the same time, taking a lot of work, Brandon entered the hotel room he had reserved for the night. As soon as he made sure that Tábata was okay, as soon as he put her in bed and covered her with the white sheets, he would leave for Crystal. He hadn't even had the time to talk to her to find out how she was doing.He had been so busy with Tábata's conversation, with all that she was telling him regarding her feelings for him that he had not even thought about Crystal and not because he had forgotten about her but because he did not want to stain the love he felt for her with Tábata's feelings. He no longer felt anything for Tábata, he never did. It didn't surprise him that she felt all that for him, it surprised him that he didn't even have the strength to face those words from the woman who had been his friend for so long. "Come on, Tábata, come on, be careful," Brandon said as he put Tábata's body on the bed.She smiled suddenly. Even in the midst of alcohol

    A new morning had arrived, a morning that seemed empty. Crystal's eyes opened little by little, the rays of sun coming through her window made Crystal's body feel warm. As soon as she realized where she was waking up and how she was waking up, she looked at the dress she was resting in. Surely the night had been long to the point of having slept like that.As she became aware of the reality around her, her eyes opened in a surprising way when she realized that next to the bed, leaning on it, was the last person she would have imagined waking up with.She didn't even remember what exactly had happened one night before, Brandon hadn't arrived but what if in the end he indeed arrived and had he seen his best friend at the edge of the bed even if he didn't seem to be one anymore? No, he couldn't have seen them! He would’ve thought anything else.But in the end, it was still the same mistake on Crystal's part, she was still the first to think of him before he could think of her. She didn

    And just as she had said, after an hour they left there, being accompanied by each other, being only companions, just work partners and nothing more, even if there was a paper that kept saying that they were married before the law and perhaps, before their families.The truth was that Crystal had changed a lot since the moment she acquired an important role in that company. What could Brandon feel about that? Nothing but happiness for her, because he knew she was capable of succeeding wherever she went, because the place she stepped on was a place that was blessed by her mere presence. When they got outside, Crystal took the keys out of her bag letting him know that she was going to be the one driving. It was clear that she did not want to feel under anyone's control in any aspect of her life. "Don't you want me to drive?" Brandon offered.Crystal looked at him and then smiled. "No, thank you, thank you, I can drive. Oh! If you want to take your car, that's fine, see you at school.”

    With slow steps and a smile on her face, Crystal approached Brandon the moment he stopped her like that, as if she were the woman he had originally married, it was time to let him know that that woman was now left behind. It was time to let him know that from now on she was not going to be treated like that by him or anyone else."That's all that matters to you, right?" She asked with her gaze on him. "That's the only thing that makes you strong, isn't it? The power that others can give you no matter what.”"Why are you doing this, Crystal?”"You really don't know?”“No! No, explain to me because I don't understand who you've become now!”"I have become the person you wanted to see in the end! I have become that woman and that is why I am not going to let the other girls here go through the same thing that I have gone through. Or are you afraid that a woman is more than you can be?” She asked with the most sarcastic smile on her face. "Is that what you feel? It's a shame that a man a

    And while in Crystal's world there seemed to be a little hope, in Brandon's world everything was ending, he no longer cared about the power in his hands, he no longer cared about the money he possessed, the great family name that he should be reborn one day. Today, none of that mattered when he felt like Crystal was taking everything just by smiling and talking, and surely, thinking about Wyatt.The liquor moving in his glass, the knot of his tie almost undone. He didn't seem to want to see a new tomorrow arrive if she wasn't there. He was alone in his life while his friend was with his wife, with the woman he loved, snatching everything from him."Son, what the hell are you doing?" A woman asked behind him, noticing the bottle next to him and the glass on the bar. Mrs. Victoria was there.“What do you want, mom?” Brandon asked, speaking irregularly."Stop drinking!”At that moment Brandon started laughing. “Of course! Just because you ask I will do it.”"Son, what's wrong with you? W

    What did the passing of the days mean after everything that had happened between Brandon and Tábata, in the same way that had happened between Wyatt and Crystal? What did everything that came after mean? The reality was that in the same way that Crystal never knew if Brandon came home that night and found Wyatt next to Crystal or not, Brandon also never knew what had made her change so much being next to Wyatt.Didn't she remember that Wyatt had been the first to tell her that she was nothing more than a gold digger, a woman who wanted life determinedly no matter what she had to do? Didn't he remember? Because if that was the case, Brandon wouldn't bother to make her remember those moments.In one way or another, Wyatt had also hurt her by making her less strong with those comments, by making her feel nothing, but without a doubt, what Brandon didn't know was that Wyatt had shown himself to be more of a man by being honest with her and beginning to treat her as he always should, showi

    On the way to the restaurant that Wyatt had promised Crystal, without saying anything, there being no topic of conversation between the two, Wyatt watched her go in her thoughts. She was deeply in love with that man, she... surely there was no way she could get him out of her head, much less out of her heart."We're almost there, Crystal," Wyatt said.“Mmm?" She asked without paying much attention. Wyatt just sighed. No matter how much it was going to cost him, he was going to make her fall in love, he was not going to rest until she saw in him the person who was supposed to hold her heart. It was a promise and sooner rather than later he was going to achieve it.When they finally arrived and handed the car over to the people in charge, Wyatt helped her up the small stairs of that restaurant.Finally a smile appeared on her face. She was now aware of what she was seeing around her. Without a doubt, Wyatt was always going to find a way to be close to her while impressing her with th

    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

Unfortunately, there are mistakes that stay forever, there are mistakes that in life can never be repaired, such as Brandon's mistake with Crystal.This was not the typical love story where she could forgive him everything just because while they stayed together living happily ever after when the reality is that she would continue to be the one to deal with the insecurity problems that her husband had.Neither Brandon sought to make her more miserable nor did she herself seek to stay where she knew the destiny that could always be waiting for her.Five years had passed an

    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

    In the same night in which some shared a single heart, in the same night in which the looks of those said more than words could say, there were also, under the same sky, those who went out of their way to find an answer to the love that they were feeling in their soul.Under the same sky there were also those who could not have an answer to their feelings."Why did you send for me, Tábata?" 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
