I remained silent, as I felt that he was right in what he said. That shouldn't have happened in a closed place where they ask for so many IDs to enter; I'm not going to argue with him about that. Better to leave it like this and let my boss fix it. We reached our destination.

"I don't know if I'll be able to make the presentation, miss. I'm so angry and unfocused that I won't be able to."  Christian tells me, visibly angry.

"Calm down, sir. If you allow me, I can do it and you can help me." I offer myself determined that because of me the work will be affected.

"Do you? Do you believe you can?" he asks concerned and I understand. After all, I have just started working.

"Yes, sir. I already explained to you that this was my job in France. Give me all the papers and c

    I don't know what to think, everything is so confusing and at the same time so familiar between us. It's as if we were old friends or acquaintances. But as far as I remember, apart from Marta, I never had another friend."Oh, how sad! But you can find another woman, sir!" I respond, trying to concentrate on the conversation."At the moment, I prefer not to think about it. And you, did you remarry after Luis?" And I see that my questions opened the door for you to ask me about my life."No, sir, but I have two children." I answer as honestly as he did."From Luis? Didn't you say your marriage was a lie?" I see that my boss does not forget what I tell him. Despite his illness."No, they are not Luis's!” God forbid, I think. “ A night of spite and madness, sir!"I don't know why I'm telling my boss this right now. It must be because I feel that I must sincerely correspond to his story. He stares at me as if he can't believe what I

    I almost laugh when I see how furious she is. I'm sure that if she had Luis in front of her right now, he would have a worse time than he did with me. That's why I hurry to tell her everything, or she is capable of going to look for him to settle accounts."No, it wasn't that. I just didn't have the chance to respond. Because my boss appeared at that moment and whisked me away." I tell her, without ceasing to move forward. "I was fine until later, when I went down to sign the contract at human resources. When I came out, he was waiting for me in the elevator hallway. He cornered me against the wall and squeezed my face so hard; look at the marks on my face."She looks at me with a mix of pity and fury. During my stay in Paris she forced me to learn self-defense, so that I could defend myself when something like what happened to me today."And what did you do, Bella? Didn't you defend yourself? Why didn't you ask for help if you were afraid of him?""I

    I know that right now my friend's imagination is running wild imagining a thousand scenarios. I'm not going to deny it, I'm also very impressed with my boss's story."Yes, he says he saved a child who ran into the street and got hit by a car. He was in a coma for a year! When he woke up, he couldn't remember anyone. Not even his family! He recognises them from photos but has no recollection of his life with them before the accident," I reveal, still shocked by this terrifying revelation."Terrible!" She exclaims. "I can't imagine living without any memories!""That's why I can't abandon him. Even though I have to face Luis every day. But I don't want Grandpa to find out. Because I suspect the bankruptcy my boss mentioned relates to the transport company Luis's parents' business. It is my grandfather's work" It's true, I believe it. I remember how furious he was when he saw my face all bruised from the blows Luis had given me.Although I didn't a

    I can see that Marta is really happy about her achievement. She immediately informs me that the job is with a French company. The same one we were looking at yesterday and she asked me to help her translate the ad into French."Of course. What happened? Is that the one? What role is it for?" I fill her with questions, happy for her, and at the same time worried that she's been cheated. I should have gone with her, I think."An Illustrator! Can you believe it?" she exclaims, brimming with excitement. "This company specialises in marketing. They are expanding to France and needed a native French speaker. And who is a native of France? Me! Ha, ha, ha... I called them, and they immediately invited me for an interview. Grandpa drove me there, and they accepted me on the spot when they learned about my work experience and qualifications."I can't believe she was so lucky. We hugged each other jumping up and down and laughing happily that she was accepted into a

    I walked away, glancing at Isabella in the rearview mirror as she watched me depart. That girl is perceptive, opening up to me like that. So, a wild night? She doesn't strike me as the type to have a fling with a stranger. She mentioned she's not married; what led her to make such a decision? "A night of recklessness and madness." Those were her words.I continued towards my house on the outskirts. As I passed the doorman, he informed me of a visitor. Who could it be? Two cars were parked in my driveway; one I recognised as my parents'. The other remained a mystery. Resigned, I anticipated another challenging encounter with them.Unlocking the door with my keys, I headed towards the voices coming from the terrace adjacent to the dining room. My tension spiked when I identified the guests. It was my parents, accompanied by Adele, who approached me eagerly, attempting a kiss as a greeting. I sidestepped her advance, avoiding her attempt to cling to my arm.

    I look around the room at the faces of my family. They all look so worried and concerned. I know they want to help me, but I don't think they can. This is something I have to figure out on my own."Don't behave like that, Rafael," My father interjected and spoke to Adele's father. "Let's give it a bit more time, as they agreed. We can continue working together as before. You need to understand.""I won't let my daughter linger without hope any longer. If Christian don't make a decision within a year, I'll consider the engagement terminated. Come, Adele." He says firmly.I smiled openly, it's just what I wanted to hear. I am determined to end this farce and the persecution they have with me to force me to declare Adele my fiancée, so hearing her father say that I immediately added."The engagement is over; there's no need to wait a year, Mr. Rafael," I asserted firmly and assuredly to dispel any doubts. "Adele is free to pursue any relationship

    "Alright, let's put an end to this," Dad interjected, gesturing for Mum to cease speaking. "But son, you're excelling in your company, which suggests you could return to ours and even assume control alongside your sister.""Dad, that's not on the cards for now." I rush to stop him in his attempt to get me to return to work for him."Son, you need to come back to your family, to your life." He insists, I know he's saying it because he thinks it's best for me, but I refuse."I'll only do so when I feel the time is right, not now, alright?” I answer and change the subject immediately. “ How long do you plan to stay here?""One week. Don't fret, we won't encroach on your space; we'll lodge in a hotel in the city centre. This place is too far. Have you considered purchasing a flat closer to your workplace?" My father again wants to interfere as usual in my decisions."I like it here. The commute doesn't bother me. It feels familiar, and I enjoy the drive each day." I explain, trying to mak

    Eva was taken aback. It was the first time Santiago had threatened her with divorce, and that couldn't be a positive sign. Dr. Alfonso undoubtedly had something to do with this, she was sure. Santiago was beginning to realise what she had been doing to him for years, she reflected. However, his recovery was rapid. She concealed her embarrassment behind a hypocritical smile that barely touched her lips."Don't be like that. I'm sorry for what I said before. You know that if she doesn't love me, I don't love her either. But that doesn't mean I wish her harm. It wasn't today, it was yesterday when I saw her. She appeared to be emaciated, although not entirely bad," Santiago explained. Santiago sank into the chair slowly, his gaze fixed on Eva. Something was being concealed, he sensed it, and was determined to uncover it. He vowed to rise early and visit the doctor without delay; he promised himself not to let any more time pass before seeing his mother and daughter. Yet, a nagging conc

    She had remained a single mother until they returned to the city, which was when they met again. Four years had passed, and he remembered it well, as he had been in constant contact with her via messages, yet she never told him. Neither Isabella nor her parents ever revealed the truth to him. What kind of father was he that no one trusted him to care for his daughter? And now this, when he had personally arranged for his daughter's security guards. He exhaled deeply before asking again:"Are you saying my daughter is pregnant?""Yes, the tests and ultrasounds don't lie.""And does my son-in-law Christian know about this? What did he say?""He asked us to investigate everything confidentially and not to tell anyone. He said that if she had indeed been assaulted and hadn't been with a man during the time they were separated before the accident, he would raise the child as his own."Santiago stared intently at the doctor, feeling a surge of gratitude towards hi

    Christian stared at him intently, with a huge lump in his throat that was almost choking him, with a sharp pain in his heart knowing that his lovely wife had been violated in the hospital. That was the only explanation that existed now for the state Isabella was in. For this reason, he decided not to tell either of them anything and told them that the whole family had decided to move to the estate for a while, so they could stay in Marta's old room.They left and he remained in the office with the lights off, feeling his world fading away as he felt guilty for everything that had happened to Isabella in her life. At that moment, he didn't know if it was the best or the worst thing that had happened to her, because he had first gotten her pregnant and left her alone all that time because of his amnesia. And now that he had recovered his memory, he found that because he hadn't been constantly looking after her, someone had abused his lovely wife."How come such terrible thin

    Marta looked at Rodrigo, who was waiting expectantly for her to explain, but without pressuring her. She took his hands and looked him in the eye as she said, crying:"It's nothing like that, love. I changed my phone number when I came here and I never contacted him again. How can you think I would tell him that you were about to pick him up?" she asked, wiping away her tears, which continued to flow from her eyes uncontrollably. "I simply suspect that he is also involved in the attack and what they did to us on the yachts. In addition to this now with the cars. I feel like I've betrayed Isabella's family by not telling them about this guy, Dad could have easily kept an eye on him.""I don't think you should feel guilty about that, Isa. You were a child and I'm sure you didn't know exactly what they were talking about when you heard them talking about the bomb." Rodrigo said sympathetically, wiping away her tears. "It was normal for you to pro

    But Christian stormed out, slamming the office door shut in a rage, and sprinted towards where Isabella was. However, when he reached the lift, he stopped and bent over, burying his head in his hands, and burst into tears."Poor Bella, poor Bella," Christian repeated over and over as they moved away. "It's all my fault, I'm to blame for everything that's happened to her.""Calm down, Chris, we don't know for sure if that's what happened," David urged, placing a hand on his back, trying to soothe him. "Maybe it's not what you think, she might have been with another man, or maybe even with you.""No, she hasn't been with me! Didn't you hear that I can't impregnate women?" he asked, almost shouting, and added with a deep ache in his chest. "She was raped, David, my Bella was raped when she was alone!"He punched the wall furiously, over and over, until his hands bled, and David stopped him, pulling him into a tight embrace, letting him vent on his shoulder, not know

    Christian sat in the doctor's office, waiting for news on Isabella's condition. His brother-in-law, Dr. David, sat beside him, having already prepared their home for Isabella's return. David would be personally taking care of her.Finally, the doctor emerged, accompanied by the hospital director. They greeted Christian and David, settling down with serious expressions."Well, doctor, can I take my wife home or not?" Christian asked impatiently."Before I answer that, Christian, I need to ask you some questions. There's something about your wife that we can't understand," the doctor said, looking at the hospital director who was shifting nervously."What do you mean, doctor? Is something wrong with Bella?" Christian asked, visibly frightened."Her vital signs are all normal," the doctor began, nervously shuffling some papers in his hands. "However, in the latest test results we ran to clear her for discharge, we found something we don't know how to analyse."

    They instinctively approach Susan and surround her as if protecting her from the world, while Susan looks at Santiago very scared. Mrs. Tania looks at her son and hurries to say."And your parents too, Susi, would come with you, that mansion is huge. Maybe if Bella hears us all around her, she'll be encouraged to wake up.""It's a good idea, Susi!" her father chimes in. "That way we can see our great-grandchildren all the time and you'll form a relationship with them. We'll go with you and Santiago will be by your side all the time, nothing will happen to you, darling, and you'll take care of your daughter, she needs you by her side.""Yes, Susi, Bella will surely be happy when she finds out you're her mum." Santiago says, excited to be able to live with her."Do you really think so, Santi? Do you think my daughter won't blame me for not knowing how to look after her and letting Eva steal her from me?" Susan asks anxiously.On the other hand, Rodrigo

So she feels disconcerted."Oh, God!" exclaims Susan, excited, and steps forward to hug and kiss her. "This is miraculous, I have another daughter. When Santi told me he had adopted you, I was filled with joy and I'd love it if you called me Mum if you don't mind. If not, that's fine, I'll treat you like a daughter, and look, these would be your grandparents. Mum, Dad, don't you think she looks like Santi and me too?""That's right, daughter, that's right. Nice to meet you, Martita, this one here is your maternal grandmother from today onwards," Susan's mother steps forward. "Here, I brought you a gift, I'm a bit confused, are you Isabel or Marta?""Isabel was the name my parents gave me, but then I changed it to Marta.

    Yes, you saved me, Bella. You insisted that I go to work at your apartment, and that's when I realised how well you were looked after, that you had visible and hidden bodyguards, that if I stayed by your side, nothing would happen to me. Forgive me for taking advantage of you in that way and putting you in danger.That's why I stayed to live with you, and you can't imagine how happy I was when your grandparents accepted me and did everything for me. I don't know how Grandpa realised they were following me, but do you know what he did? He put security guards on me too! Can you believe it? Me, an orphan he'd just met, just because you wanted me by your side, he started looking after me!You wouldn't believe how much I hated those rich girls who thought they were better than everyone else, but you weren't like that.

I'm truly grateful that she called me to save you," her mother said very seriously. Then, with a smile, she asked, "How are you feeling? Does it hurt much?""A bit when I move. How long has it been?" she asked, looking at her healed wounds.Her mother looked at her with pity and told her that she had been in that situation for almost two months. They had kept her asleep the whole time because they were travelling from one place to another, hiding her. Besides, there was something she had to tell her, and now that she knew she had a son, she thought it was the right time
