The office of my lawyer was situated not very far away from the hospital and I walked there with time to spare before my appointment. The waiting room outside the office was very comfortable, I was directed to go inside by the secretary as I walked inside the office.I was forced to admit that managing without a car nowadays was difficult sometimes . At least I would not have that problem if I decided to return to Milan with Marc.If only I were the type of person he imagined, how much easier life would be. I could just accept the money offered and go my own way. If I had been willing to swallow my pride, I would have accepted Marcs help during Tio’s birth and saved myself a hard struggleMy lawyer’s secretary interrupted my musings and soon I was comfortably sitting in the comfortable armchair in a rather shabby office.“What problem are you facing now, Mrs. Garcia?” He said coming and sitting near me.“It's about Tio my son.” I began. “Yes, just a moment let
After I left the lawyer's office, I walked thoughtfully down the street. Absently going into the small coffee house I ordered a sandwich and a Cup of rather tasteless tea. By the time I had consumed my snack and began to walk back towards the hospital, I was still confused as I was looking for a solution to my problems but found none. I know that if I took Marc to the court it would be unforgivable and yet I knew I would never face the alternative solution of seeing Tio only occasionally, perhaps never. I was reluctantly forced to the conclusion that the only way out of the difficulty was to disappear out of Marc's life for good . How I will accomplish what I was thinking was a big question. I sighed bitterly as I reflected that with a more reasonable man it would have been sufficient to have discussed out the facts and the lawyer would have put them to her. But as the lawyer had summarized Marc was a very determined man and he would fight every step of the way whatever it cost to hi
I took my time in getting ready, feeling too embarrassed by what had happened in the past hour to be eager to face Cathy. It was almost half an hour before I left my room to enter the living room. Cathy was talking to Marc and as I walked in, she stood up and walked towards me. “There you are, my dear Carmen,” Cathy said very calmly, as though nothing happened. She pulled me towards the sofa and patted the place beside her. “Come and sit with me, Carmen.” I looked at Marc who was staring at me with many emotions on his face, as I sat beside her.“How are you, Carmen? I am so sorry I couldn’t come and visit you later at Piemonte, as I was quite busy taking care of the business, while Marc was resting.” Cathy gracefully explained her absence. Was I supposed to understand her situation, while she had lied behind to me? I did not say anything and kept mum. Cathy felt my withdrawn behavior and leaning over, touched my arm, her face gently looking at me with warmth. “ Carmen I am sorry
"You know everything..." Bella asked me hesitantly. "What do you think Bella? You wanted my son and when it didn't work out you even had an affair with my husband you tried to ruin my family you are such shameless women but I won't allow you to do it anymore so either you leave the country or I will leak out the information about your affair with my husband and believe me if the news goes out your father's reputation will be ruined and so will your as no man in the right mind will want to marry you. So you decide what do you want?" I warned her. But she laughed it out as if I was joking and said. "You won't do it you don't have the balls to do it you love your husband just like he loves you and both of you would do anything to protect each other." "Do you want me to tell your parents about your dual life?" I threw at her and knew she would react as I could see her panicking. She looked at me with hatred and after a few seconds she said. " You know I had my eyes on your husband for

Thank you Chapter 1 The winter snows were melting in the forest off the Caribou and the red orange Vermillion cliffs were straked with melting frost. Deer’s were feeding in the forest glades among the shades of pine tree and fir and trout where leaping in the sun sparkle streams. A shadow moved under the pine, then was gone. Five deer fed on the grass along the bank of the mountain stream of Caribou. Their coats mottled with light and shadow of sunlight through the leaves. It was very still water rippled around the roots of a tree where the soil had washed away and gurgled cheerfully among the rocks. A buck’s tail
Blurb:- Carmen was a very sensitive woman who had fallen in love when she was young and married the man of her dreams but his betrayal broke her fragile heart and she left him but circumstances brought her back to himand all she wanted to do was meet him for the last time and move on with her life as there was nothing left between them but when she returned he trapped her without her knowledge..... My heart was beating fiercely and painfully as I was beginning to shake his closeness was overwhelming. When he lay on the bed he had been somehow Vulnerable. The powerful muscle strength of his lean body was less obvious but now he was on his feet again and although he still looked very pale he was very strong. The tight black curls were no longer able to give a touch of appeal to his tired face. His physical mental arrogance saw that. His arrogance made me back away like a frightened animal. “You have no right to ask me questions and I'm not answering them.” I flung at him. “Why did yo
The mid-afternoon sun was very pleasant and warm as spring was about to arrive. But I was feeling very hot and uneasy for the entire morning. And I decided that the workload was catching up with me because of which I was getting panic attacks and my body was overreacting.I was walking down the stairs as I had very little time for my lunch I had to get back to work and finish up the news that was supposed to be printed in the next day’s paper. And the reason why I had come out to have lunch was that I was annoyed with the piled-up work on my desk and I direly needed some fresh air. I had been sulking under the paperwork for about a month and still, there were lots of things that needed my attention so I decided to take the pending work home and complete it.I ordered some white pasta and wine to go with it. I usually never had wine during working hours but the work pressure was killing my head and I had to relax or I would go mad. I looked around the café while I waited for my order.
So after the unexpected proposal, I collapsed on the sofa as I never expected Don would propose. I was happy but in the deep corners of my heart, I knew I was not ready but it has been a while since I started dating him so it was expected Don wanted to take things to the next level and I knew he was being sincere. After we had a long talk I agreed and decided we will give some more time and think about how it works before we decide on a marriage date but first I had to be sure of my feelings. And after dinner when I returned home, I tossed and turned and thought a lot about my future and knew that I have to move on and so I decided to take the next step as it was very important before I let go of my past life altogether. "Wake up Carmen you need to do this no matter what happens Don is a good guy and he will always keep you happy." I told myself repeatedly till I fell asleep not allowing myself to think about the past. **************************************** I looked out of the c
