As Guillermo and Valeria rushed to take Laura to the clinic, Tania was not far behind. Her anxiety to observe the situation was palpable; she could not miss a single moment of what was happening. A mixture of satisfaction and nervousness ran through her body. She knew that her plan had worked, but the uncertainty about Laura's condition worried her. As a nurse, she was aware that the pill she had given her would only make her sleep, but her concern gave her an air of genuine concern.At the clinic, Guillermo held Laura’s hand as the doctor examined her. Valeria, her eyes filled with tears, couldn’t stop thinking about the pills. How could she have made a mistake? Guilt consumed her, and she feared that Guillermo would blame her for what had happened. She tried to remember every detail of the moment she walked into Laura’s room, convinced that she had taken the right bottle. However, her nervousness was beginning to sow doubts in her mind."Doctor, what's wrong with my daughter?" Guill
When they returned to the mansion, the atmosphere was tense. Tania, with a smile that failed to hide her ambition, quickly stepped forward."I'll take care of taking Laura to her room," he announced, almost in an authoritative tone.But Valeria, with tears in her eyes, stood resolutely in front of him.—No Tania, I'll take her.Guillermo, aware of the growing friction between the two women, immediately intervened.—Valeria, please let Tania take Laura to her room. You and I have to talk.Valeria's gaze darkened. Tania's apparent victory, after Valeria's mistake in administering the wrong medicine, had sown a deep distrust in Guillermo, at least that's what Valeria imagined. When Tania left with Laura, Valeria, feeling the weight of guilt and pain, turned to Guillermo.—Don't you trust me anymore, Guillermo? It was enough for me to make one mistake with Laura for you to lose trust in me and place all the responsibility for our daughter on that woman.—It's not that, Valeria. I'm just t
After reading the story to Laura, Guillermo and Valeria looked at each other with complicity. They both knew that it was the perfect moment to share the fabulous news with the little girl."Laura, darling," Guillermo began, crouching down to his daughter's height. "We have something very special to tell you."Laura, her eyes shining with curiosity, smiled and settled into her bed.—What is it, Dad? Tell me now! Is it a present? —she said excitedly.Valeria took Guillermo's hand, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness.—Well, it's not a gift, but I'm sure you're going to like what we're going to tell you. It's that... —said Valeria, in a sweet voice— Your dad and I have decided to get married.Laura's eyes widened, and a laugh of joy escaped her lips.“Really?! That’s unbelievable!” she exclaimed, jumping out of bed and hugging her parents tightly. “I’ve always dreamed of seeing them get married. I’m going to have a wedding!”Guillermo and Valeria looked at each other, their heart
The atmosphere in the mansion became thick and tense after the mysterious woman's surprising appearance. All eyes focused on her, and the silence became palpable, as if time had stopped. Guillermo, stunned, was speechless, while little Laura clung to Tania, trembling with fear and not understanding what was happening.“Who are you?” William asked, his voice shaking with confusion and disbelief. “How dare you come in here to interrupt my wedding? Who let you in?”The mysterious woman, with a cold and determined look, removed the veil that covered her face. The scar that crossed her cheek was a reminder of her pain, a mark that spoke of all the suffering she had endured.“I am Isabel, your wife,” she replied, her voice firm but full of resentment. “The woman you thought was dead, the woman you betrayed with my sister Natalia.”The impact of his words resounded through the room like thunder. The guests exchanged glances, unable to process the revelation. Laura, her heart pounding, took a
The guests began to leave, completely confused and surprised by Isabel's unexpected appearance. Valeria, devastated, felt caught between the revelation and the emotional chaos that surrounded her. Her mind revolved around a single idea: Laura."I'm going up to Laura's room," Valeria announced, her voice breaking. "She must be very confused. Besides, you two have a lot to talk about," she said, addressing Isabel and Guillermo."It's better for you to be with Laura," Guillermo replied, his concern evident in every word.Isabel stood before William, filled with hatred and helplessness, fighting against conflicting feelings. Seeing him again, after so long, she realized that she still loved him as much as the first day.As Valeria walked up the stairs, Isabel looked at Guillermo sarcastically.—And now what are you going to do? Because you don't expect that woman and I to live together in this house that my parents left me.Guillermo looked her straight in the eyes, his expression serious
Isabel was shocked to discover that Valeria was her lost sister. Disbelief enveloped her like a heavy cloak, and her voice trembled, not knowing how to assimilate such a truth.“What’s going to happen now?” Isabel asked excitedly. “Do you realize what this means? You were about to marry my other sister, just like you did with Natalia. You never cared about me; as soon as you thought I was dead, you didn’t hesitate to marry her.”“That’s not true!” Guillermo exclaimed firmly. “Natalia forced me into that marriage. She knew I didn’t love her; I never really felt anything for her. It’s just that, because of your illness, I felt lonely and disturbed, and she took advantage of that to seduce me at the moment when I felt most vulnerable.”—Don't make me laugh, Guillermo. Are you going to tell me that that night, when I found you kissing Natalia while I was suffering from my illness, you did it because she forced you? —said Isabel sarcastically, letting hatred show in her eyes.—It's true th
Isabel did not understand Valeria's words, everything was confusing for her, she looked at Guillermo trying to find an answer that would confirm or deny what Valeria had just said, but Guillermo was silent, she never imagined that things would end like this:"What the hell are you saying? Where do you get the idea that you are my daughter's biological mother? Have you gone crazy?" Isabel replied, furious, while Guillermo looked at Valeria in astonishment, who seemed determined to reveal the truth.“It’s true, Isabel,” Valeria replied calmly. “I know it may sound strange and I understand your confusion, but that’s the truth: I am Laura’s biological mother because you used my eggs.”Isabel's expression turned from disbelief to shock, as if the world was falling apart around her.“How is that possible? That has to be a lie!” he exclaimed, turning to William. “Tell me that what this woman says is false! Speak!”Guillermo swallowed hard and looked down, feeling caught between Isabel's fury
Isabel had been discharged from the clinic and returned to the mansion. The atmosphere was tense; everyone knew that the situation had changed drastically. Isabel, still weak, sat on the sofa, looking around with a mixture of nostalgia and defiance.“Where’s Laura?” he asked, his voice barely a whisper, but full of authority.William, who was present, approached her and cautiously replied:—She's in her room, playing. Isabel, we need to talk about our daughter.“Talk?” Isabel replied, crossing her arms. “Isn’t it my right to know how my daughter is?”—Of course you can see her, but we must clarify what your situation is in this house —said Guillermo as he sat down in front of Isabel—. You must understand that for Laura you had passed away, and now that you have returned, it has been very difficult for her to understand this whole mess. However, Valeria has already taken care of speaking to her and explaining it in a way that she can understand."And why does Valeria have to meddle in
