Last Updated:
2025-03-12 11:05:40Santiago looked at him with satisfaction. His best friend had resigned from his position at his parents' request to help uncover Eva's misdeeds, and he had succeeded. His best friend had helped him become who he always was. Affectionately, he told him he would make him vice-president of his companies, as he wanted to continue working in his father's, and couldn't remain divided between the two.
"You don't have to do that, Santiago. I'll continue to help you in any way I can," Adrian said, grateful and amazed."It's time for you to return to your position and practise the career you studied for, Adrian," Santiago said with a smile. "Now, focus on finding Eva, or that Nestor along with Oswaldo. Blast, I'd forgotten! Do you remember where Luis's mother's parents' house is? Go there immediately to fetch the lady, and take her to our house or bring her here to be with her son, daughter-in-law, and grandson. I'm sure her husband will do everything possible to find her and make h

SECOND CHANCE WHIT MR. AMNESIA CEO 1. ISABELLA SARDINO
Everyone thinks that being the heiress of a wealthy family makes you happy. In their minds, they create a wonderful fantasy life that, in my case, is far from reality. Despite being the sole heiress of one of the most powerful families in my country—not only to my parents but also to my grandfather Santiago Sardino, a feared mafia millionaire—I am the most miserable person imaginable since I can remember.In the numerous novels I've read, rich children like me are always portrayed as petulant, conceited, and doing whatever they want without caring about anything. They face their parents without fear. I assure you that's not my case; I'm quite the opposite. My mother made sure of that, and now I find myself trapped in this miserable life they've imposed on me.It's been over six months since I've been living this arranged marriage charade. So far, I have no complaints. My fake husband, Luis, barely spends time at home. I'm immersed in my studies and visit my grandparents every day afte

I look at him with hatred, feeling a lump in my throat from the helplessness of the situation and my inability to act. He turns around and heads for the stairs, leaving me alone and in pain on the floor. Tears of frustration run down my cheeks, but I try to pull myself together and stand up. Suddenly, he turns and shouts at me from above."Bella, you're not a woman, you're too ugly! You have terrible taste in clothes! You're horrible! Your body is pathetic! It's embarrassing for me to walk arm in arm with you and introduce you as my wife! You know why I married you!" he spits out all that venom with rage.I can't believe what just happened. Luis hasn't just hurt me with his words; he's hit me. Although I try to stay strong, it deeply hurts to know that he doesn't value me as a person. This situation has opened my eyes to a reality I've been avoiding for a long time.Since childhood, I've always felt the pressure to please my parents and maintain the appearance of a perfect family. But

With my head resting on the steering wheel, I cry until a memory comes to mind, as if God had enlightened me. I remember the apartment my grandfather gave me in the city center many years ago, I think when I turned sixteen; it was my birthday present. I remember it as if it were yesterday: he took me secretly from home and led me there with such mystery to give it to me. "Nobody knows about its existence, just you and me," he told me.The happiness that fills me is enormous. I search through my purse and find the address and, on my keyring, the key that opens it. I look up the location on my phone, which immediately plots the route; it's not that far. I drive there. Upon arrival, I have to show my ID at the entrance because the doorman is new and doesn't know me. Well, I suppose the previous one wouldn't have known me either; I only came that one time when Grandfather brought me. I could never come back because they wouldn't let me out.The doorman keeps glancing at me. I've let my ha

She observes me with satisfaction and leaves. I open the bag reluctantly to find an extremely short dress that barely covers my thighs. I try it on; it's beautiful, but my breasts almost spill out of the neckline.I'll never wear something like this! What was Mom thinking buying me clothes that look more suitable for a woman of the night? No, I definitely won't wear such a garment, even if she gets furious!After my mother leaves, and having seen how the dress fits, I search through my wardrobe until I find an outfit my grandmother gave me for my birthday. It's pale pink; I try it on. It fits perfectly! Above all, I feel comfortable in it: nothing to be ashamed of or worried about men's leering looks throughout dinner.Dressed like this, I stay in my room until they're all in the car honking and calling for me. I run out and quickly get in. Since they're running late, they don't make me go back to change. My mother spends the entire journey berating me. I put my headphones on and focu

I look at the smiling lady in front of me, her image comes to my mind for an instant from when they used to visit my house before I was sent to school."I..." I don't know what to say, the words catch in my throat. "I... I..." I stammer. What are they doing here?"Don't pretend you don't remember Luisito, darling," my mother says in her fake voice. I look at her but say nothing. "You haven't stopped talking about him all these years."What? Why is my mother telling such a lie? I had never remembered him until today, I hate him!"Isabella," Dad speaks, "you said a moment ago that you remembered him."I look at Dad, not understanding what he's saying. Was that what I said yes to? Of course I remember Luis well! He was that hateful boy who always made me cry, forcing me to do things I didn't want to do. I've hated him all my life; he used to follow me everywhere and hit me when no one was watching. Then he'd manage to make me take the blame for everything he did. How could I forget? I th

I remain paralyzed, staring at them, unable to believe what they are saying. I look at Luis, who smiles like an angel, accepting everyone's congratulations while holding one of my hands in his and kissing me from time to time. And suddenly, he kneels before me and shows me, with his cynical smile, an engagement ring."Bella, since we were children, you have been a fascination to me, and you still are. As you promised me back then when you confessed your love, I have waited all these years for you. Because I have also loved you all my life and I intend to continue doing so. Thank you for accepting me as the man who will make you happy for all eternity," Luis says while placing the ring on my finger, amid everyone's applause. He doesn't even ask if I accept him, he takes it for granted. I feel trapped, unable to react or say a word. I can't find words to express my desperation; I remain frozen and at a loss for what to say. I know I can't voice my opinion; it has always been this way.

Luis stares at me with an expression of mockery and contempt that I did not understand, but I waited for him to finish speaking in the hope that somehow I would escape this torture."Did you really think I was in love with you? No, Bella, I'll never fall in love with someone like you," he said cynically. "So take it well, we'll both win. You'll have your freedom, and I'll have my inheritance. We'll be married for three years, and each go our separate ways. We'll only appear to be married. Now you have to pretend you like me, that we've truly been in love since childhood; if we do it well, we'll be free sooner.""Sounds good to me; I don't like you either. We'll divorce in three years, and that's it," I replied happily, feeling a great weight lifted from my shoulders. I felt God existed and had come to save me."Yes, but I want to make something clear. During that time, you can't have any relationships," he said very seriously while looking out the window."Fine by me. And you?" I ask

Right now my nose is red from sneezing so much; my mother and mother-in-law ordered an enormous bouquet that reaches almost to my knees, and not only that. Every wedding arrangement includes these flowers. Thankfully, my grandmother changed the bouquet and had all the others removed from the decorations with Luis's help, who wants to get in their good graces. When she told him I was allergic to those flowers, he agreed to remove them all, despite the furious faces of my mother-in-law and my mother. So I felt relieved when my grandmother gave me a new bouquet. One that she had ordered, made of orchids that don't affect me and is much more beautiful. She also placed them in the floral arrangements with Luis's help. My grandmother is the only one excited about this wedding. She hugged and kissed me, with tears in her eyes. My grandfather doesn't want me to get married. He keeps telling me he's only here for me, clearly annoyed. He doesn't like the groom and looks at him as if he wants

Santiago couldn't stop gazing adoringly at Susan, who was sleeping peacefully in the bed. He was overjoyed that she had been able to donate her liver to his daughter, for whom he had shed so many tears. Santiago left her side for a moment when he saw a man entering the room alongside his friend and assistant, Adrian."What do you mean she's disappeared? Who could have paid such an enormous bail?" Santiago asked furiously upon hearing the news."You won't believe this, Santiago, but it was that Nestor chap, the son of the sultan who bought Adele and wanted Christie, Christian Thompson's sister," his friend and assistant Adrian told him."What does he want with Eva?" Santiago asked, both intrigued and worried.Adrian shook his head, saying they had no idea. He explained that Nestor had shown up at the police station with a judge's order to release her on bail, along with Oswaldo Ibáñez. They had paid the astronomical sum requested for her release and

Dr David, upon finding Adele, immediately took out his phone and informed his wife of what was happening. It appeared to be true that someone had paid to have her moved, and they were planning to take her away despite her being intubated and connected to various machines. It was clear they were preparing to remove her. He waited patiently until she was left alone for a moment, then quickly moved her into the lift, pretending he was taking her for a test on the ground floor."Christie, it's her," he called to his wife, who came with Adele's mother. "They were going to take her away. Do you have somewhere to take her, madam?""Yes, yes, let's take the lift to the roof," Adele's mother requested, stroking her daughter's forehead. "There's a helicopter waiting for me up there.""That must be why they haven't taken her yet," said Christie, helping to push the trolley towards the lift. "They're waiting for yours to leave so the other one can land."They immediately did

Susan fell silent for a moment at Santiago's question, as he watched her, still incredulous that he had finally found her."I don't know, Santiago. I was terrified when I found out," she began softly. "Eva also frightened me a great deal. I was foolish. I should have told you. We were young, but you had said you would marry me, even without knowing I was pregnant. Forgive me for not trusting you!""We were all fools," Santiago hastened to say. "I was, for not noticing how much our daughter resembled you from an early age. For not running to find you. I should have followed you, asked for explanations about why you left me with just a message.""That doesn't matter now. What's important is that our daughter is alive. I have a daughter, Santiago, with you!" she said, smiling happily."Yes, Susi, we have a beautiful daughter," Santiago replied with a happy smile and added, "We also have two grandchildren: Lucas and Lucía. They're twins.""I have two gran

"Yes, twins, Lucas and Lucia. They're in hospital too; we don't know anything about them yet. But I'm certain your daughter won't forgive you if you hide this from her, let alone if she could save her only daughter and you don't tell her. She'll hate you for life.""Good Lord, Sardino, you should have told me this when we spoke earlier so I could prepare her gradually! How do you think she'll react when she learns her daughter is alive?""She'll be overjoyed, you'll see.""You're right. She believes she's dead; she puts flowers on her grave every day. God, how terrible, how terrible! Wait here, I'll call my daughter! But don't pressure her! We'll do whatever she decides!""Thank you, Samuel, thank you so much!"They fell silent, watching as Samuel left the office cursing Eva. After a few minutes, a beautiful Susan entered. Despite being forty-two years old, her beauty was incomparable-her smile, her eyes, her hair. Everything was like Bella's, and to everyon

They advanced into the mansion, observing their surroundings where time seemed to have stood still. Nothing had changed since their last visit many years ago. They sat nervously where the maid directed them."Son, calm down," Mr Sardino urged Santiago, who was fidgeting incessantly. "Everything will be fine. You weren't to blame for anything!""Don't say that, Dad!" Santiago protested. "I should have realised sooner! Bella is her spitting image! Why didn't we notice when she was a child? Besides, it's been so many years. Do you think she'll remember me?"They were interrupted by the smiling entrance of Mr Rivera, who approached them, shaking hands and embracing them enthusiastically. Although they had grown apart after what happened with their children, they had always been great friends and still maintained many business interests in common."Good afternoon, Santiago. Are you alright?" Mr Rivera asked, noticing his nervous movements. "What brings about thi

As they arrive, they see everyone still waiting for news about the children. They turn upon hearing them, while Christie goes and embraces her brother, covering him with kisses, crying."What is it, Chris?" Christian asks, pulling away."It's Bella.""What's wrong with Bella?" Santiago and the grandfather ask simultaneously."We've just run into the doctor treating her. He was looking for you to tell you that they need to fetch Bella's mother. None of the others are compatible with her, and the only hope left is that her mother might be, as she has the same blood type.""As soon as we know about the children, we'll go for her," Grandfather Sardino says."No, it has to be now," Mr Thompson replies very seriously."Why?" Santiago asks."Because if they don't perform the transplant immediately, the doctor doesn't think she'll survive.""Oh God, don't tell me that, don't tell me that! My Bella can't die before I ask for her forgiveness

At that moment, they see Doctor David, who was inside the operating theatre where the adults were, running towards them."Christian, you need to come urgently," he requests with urgency."Has something happened to Bella?" Christian asks, standing up frightened."No, it's not about Bella," Doctor David assures him."Then who? I don't want to move from here, from beside my children," he says, sitting back down."Néstor is out there, demanding they give him Adele, and I thought you could say you're her fiancé and prevent it. She's really in a critical condition, she has two gunshot wounds to the torso and has lost a lot of blood, just like Luis. The worst of all is the other woman.""Vivian?" Christie asks intrigued."Yes, she'd already been shot once and they gave her two more," David replies. "She's in a very bad way, I don't know if she'll make it. But come on.""Vivian must have prevented Eva from killing the children," says the

Néstor Guzmán was furious. Since she escape, he hadn't been able to find where Adele had gone. Initially, he'd stopped looking for her when he found Christie Thompson, thinking she'd make a better wife for him and that it would be easy to acquire her, as he was accustomed to doing. But due to his actions in their company, he found himself in serious trouble with the government, caused by Mr Thompson.He realised that Thompson was indeed very powerful and could cause him significant harm. So when he learned on television that Christie had married her boyfriend, Dr David, he cursed angrily and resumed his search for Adele, intending to leave, as his father was pressuring him to return due to the mess he'd caused with the Thompson family."Sir, we're not sure if it's true," said one of his men, entering his office. "But one of our lads says he saw Adele with a chap called Luis Ibáñez. They were in a car heading out of the city. He followed th
