The door rang and Edan let go of the beast in his arms."That careerist!" How did you allow me to talk to me like that, Edan?! I don't tolerate it; I don't tolerate it! Vivian continued to shout, red with rage and disheveled."ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, VIVIAN!" Edan shouted, letting go of the anger he had been enduring for a long time. Vivian froze, never before, in any of her outbursts, had Edan spoken to her like that. "You and I need to talk, but not now, pour yourself a drink, sit down, calm down, and you'd better wait for me here!" Edan made his way to the door, but stopped before he got out. "And I don't want another show when I get back!" The door rang again, Edan was gone.Vivian threw herself on the couch, stunned. He swallowed thickly, those words "We need to talk" from Edan, sounded like a breakup... But she wouldn't allow it, she wouldn't let Edan leave her for a little thing, like that Soul.It was evident that this woman was far below her, how could Edan leave her for someone so
Everyone was serious and stressed, they had been in that office for an hour and still couldn't come to an agreement."I said it, I want you to specify the limits in the contract. Alma demanded, with great conviction.“We had already discussed that last time, it is in the contract, they can and should, if necessary, hold hands, give each other hugs and kisses, only if they are in front of family and friends and I repeat, only if necessary. Diego, Edan's friend and lawyer, reiterated that he did not understand Alma's new attitude, who seemed angry and hostile."I want you to specify that if Edan oversteps his bounds, I can take action. Alma pleaded."To overcome?" Why? Has it ever happened? Diego asked, looking at the couple, totally bewildered.“I just want this time, the contract to be much more specific with the boundaries and feel more protected. Alma said. Diego looked at Edan, who was still serious in his place, without saying a word, or objecting. Edan just nodded."Okay, I under
The crying was finally over.Alma knew, that at some point, that sad stage had to end, finally, she had managed to stop crying for Edan.And though the pain had subsided, his feelings hadn't changed. But time heals everything, and as the days went by, she was sure that she would get over how she felt about Edan.Now, something had changed, finally some good news renewed her happiness, Alma's mother, Luz, was back home.Finally, Luz had been discharged from the hospital, and although she still had to take good care of herself, Alma felt a sigh of relief with her mother's presence at home.A nurse accompanied Mrs. Luz at all times at Alma's house, many times they rotated between shifts and had to adapt a little in the small property, however, it was worth it, to have her mother cared for by a professional all the time.It was a little hard to have to confess to Luz, upon her return, that her husband had abandoned his family, in his moment of greatest weakness, just when she had fallen i
Vivian had received, what to her was, terrible news, one so great, that it would change the course of her life, completely.That was the worst day of his life and no matter how hard he tried to find an explanation for why the worst misfortunes happened to him, he couldn't find it.The only momentary solution was to seek the support of the cause of all their ills.“Hello? A hoarse voice was heard in the receiver.“We need to talk. Vivian said with conviction."I told you not to call me. The man was heard muttering on the other end of the line."It's urgent, I need to talk to you. She spat, angrily.“Hey? I'll be here in a moment, baby! I'm talking to a partner. — He heard the subject respond to a female voice speaking to him on the other end of the receiver. Vivian pursed her lips, holding back her anger. "Tell me quickly, what do you want?""I need you to come, right now, it's urgent. He repeated, slowly."I've told you before. It was heard in a whisper. "It's not that easy, at the mo
Edan arrived at Alma's house full of anxiety and worry, knocking on the door loudly and again, hoping that it would be opened as soon as possible.He couldn't help but wonder, Had something happened to Alma? Because, for the first time since they started their peculiar relationship, she didn't answer their calls.When the door finally opened, Edan had to lower his gaze, little Diana was the one who greeted him and a little further back, came Naomi, Alma's sister."Hello, Edan! The little girl greeted him with emotion."Hello, linda."Did you come to pick us up to take us to your house?" Diana asked excitedly."No, I'm sorry, it will have to be another time, now I have something very important to do. Edan bent down slightly, to speak to her face. "And your sister?" Could you call Alma?"My sister is gone. — Informed the little girl. "She went out with her boyfriend."With her boyfriend?" Edan asked, standing up, feeling his whole-body tense.Naomi, who was already standing next to them
Alma enjoyed the date, she really had a good time, Mateo behaved like a gentleman, attentive, kind, and sweet, there was only one detail.He wasn't Edan.And no matter how hard Alma tried to focus on the presence of Matthew, who was an attractive and intelligent man, for whom any woman would go out of her way, she couldn't do it.Alma stared at Matthew's sweet gaze and was immediately approached by the memory of Edan's intense eyes, which detailed her with desire.Then, blushing, she looked down at her lips, forcing herself to pay attention to what Mateo was saying, and immediately she was enveloped by the sensation of Edan's lips over hers, ending up red as a tomato.Immediately, Alma took another sip from her glass of champagne to try to relax.It was impossible to go on a date like this and Alma no longer saw it as such, but rather as a chance encounter between friends.While Matthew, noticing how Alma focused all his attention on him, becoming more and more blushing, he felt trium
A couple of burly men pushed their way through the tumult when they noticed the altercation, from their uniforms, you could tell they belonged to ballroom security."We ask the gentlemen to leave the premises immediately. We don't want trouble here. One said, crossing his arms.Both Edan and Matthew looked at the subjects for a moment, though they ignored them."I can't leave you like this, with this man. Matthew made one last attempt, turning to Alma."Please go." I'll be fine. Alma answered, worried about the pair of scowling men who were still standing beside them.Mateo felt that Alma was pushing him aside, that he was preferring that guy to him, but he wasn't blaming her, surely Alma was doing it because he needed that job and he couldn't afford for Edan to take away his benefits.Clenching his jaw, Mateo nodded and turned around, passing through the guards, and pushing the onlookers, to retreat.Edan, meanwhile, turned to Alma once more, still feeling the heat of rage coursing t
Vivian watched in the distance and from inside her car, she saw Edan's Ferrari finally arrive.She didn't understand how Edan had left her like this, how he didn't come to their meeting when, clearly, she had specified that she had to deal with him, a very important issue.So, she decided to wait for him outside her building because her problem, she couldn't wait.She was just about to get out of her car to catch up with him, when she saw the flashing Ferrari arrive, when she noticed that he was going around the car and opening the passenger door, a moment later, she saw that woman get out, the one who was pretending to be his wife, the said Alma.Squeezing the steering wheel tightly and filled with so much rage that she almost foamed at the mouth, Vivian saw how Edan hugged Alma to kiss her passionately in the middle of the street, in front of everyone, and after a minute, they both entered the building, embracing.Vivian couldn't believe it, Edan was a traitor and she, who believed
