It was a beautiful place, rarely Emma had seen something so beautiful in her life. There were huge lights hanging from the ceiling, bone colored, perfectly painted, the walls lacked any stain, everyone looked elegant and well groomed, everything looked neat and organized, that place had an antique look, for an instant, Emma felt in the past."Welcome to Hjärtan i trä".An employee gave the cordial invitation to both of them, Emma thanked with a shy smile, but Leonardo did not answer anything, on the contrary, his face became more serious when the employee spoke to him, she noticed that detail, but decided to overlook it, although the doubt was still there. Why had he behaved like that?During the trip in the car, he had been asking Emma a few questions, ones that she had barely answered, her nerves played against her and she felt too weak, she was not like that, she did not understand why when she was with him she behaved that way: tremulous, inept, shy. She had only known him for a m

She had to admit it even if she didn't want to: Leonardo White was a really interesting man. His voice, when he wanted it, acquired an interesting rhythm, she had hardly spoken about her, in fact, she didn't want to, besides, his anecdotes were much more interesting than what she had to say."And that was how your father became a millionaire?" Emma questioned, completely enraptured, not only by his face, but by him, by what he conveyed to her, she had even forgotten the extreme doubt she had about whether it was true that he had abandoned a son."That's what my grandfather told me, but, between you and me, he's a great liar" Emma laughed, "I'm serious, you can ask him the same question fifteen times, and fifteen times he'll give you a different answer".Emma was about to add something else, but the waiter had arrived with their food.The woman was unable to hide the displeasure that spread throughout her body when she observed the appearance of that salad. She even raised her eyes to

As sweet as the most exotic and forbidden candies: such were her lips, such were Emma's lips, when his secretary wanted to pull away from the kiss, he acted quickly and grabbed her by the waist, leaning towards her as he rubbed her lips with a sudden desire, he had never tasted such sweet lips in all his life, that was too much to say, if one took into account the many mouths he had kissed.Emma was trembling, like a teenager receiving her first kiss. That wasn't exactly her first kiss, but it was the only one that had ever made her like this, so desperate to finish it, but curious enough not to. But she knew she had to break the contact, so she roughly pushed her boss's body away, watching him with a deep perplexity drawn on her face. What the hell had happened, why from one second to the next did her boss find himself kissing her? Emma swallowed saliva, Leonardo's scent was still imprinted on her, on her lips, on her body, it was as if she could still feel his grip, even though he h

CHAPTER 13: DAMAGE.They were both sitting on Emma's sofa, who had offered some tea in a cup to Sofia, who seemed desperate to talk, but Emma was so stressed that the last thing she wanted to hear was her friend reproaching her as if she were her mother, but she told herself that she shouldn't be prejudiced, that maybe she wanted to talk about something unrelated to Leonardo.She knew she was wrong when Sofia opened her mouth."Where were you, Emma?" asked the woman, in a reproachful tone that annoyed Emma."I went out," she replied, taking a sip of her tea, perhaps drinking tea that night would leave her sleepless."You were with him" She didn't ask, she had affirmed it, Emma didn't give her any answer, only silence was heard, resounding as always. "Emma, were you with Leonardo?""Did you come just to ask me that, Sofia? It's too late at night, I want to sleep"."That's exactly why I came, you're always supposed to be here at your house, I came, and you weren't here, you're always he

The reason why Leonardo had broken up with Sofia at that time was because of the age difference between them, which despite not being too extensive, bothered him. At present, she was thirty-three years old and he was twenty-eight, a difference of only five years had caused a very deep wound in the woman, one that remained indelible, although, looking at her face that night, the only thing that could be said was that fate had treated her very badly, she looked at least ten years older than her original age.Leonardo knew that she detested him, in the small eyes of the plump woman, he could perceive the accumulated hatred she felt for him, not that he liked her very much anyway."What am I doing here? You know what I'm doing here!" Sofia approached sharply towards Leonardo, who, with an expression as hard as ice, looked at her."Actually, I don't have the slightest idea what you are doing here," he spat at her, with a brusque and intemperate tone, he crossed his arms, Sofia's gaze fell

Ten days had passed, and everything was still normal enough for neither Leonardo nor Emma to feel uncomfortable, but from time to time, when their gazes crossed, the memory of the kiss arose at the same time in the minds of both, especially in the mind of Emma, who had been quieter than usual, in fact, she had been very thoughtful, too much, as if she was analyzing something, as if she was making an important decision. To Leonardo's head came the idea that he was likely to think about Sofia's words, that led the man to annoy himself by imagining the image of him that the woman had offered to Emma.Leonardo held a pile of papers, and walked towards them in the direction of Emma, who didn't even seem to notice him approaching, writing a few things, but at the same time, she seemed too out of touch with reality."Are you all right?" asked Leonardo, seeing how the woman was surprised by his sudden presence, confirming even more his theory that she was there, but his head was not, "You see

CHAPTER 16: FAMILY REUNION. Emma averted her gaze from her mother at the question she considered out of place and unnecessary."Of course he's not my boyfriend, mom"."And who is he then?""He is my boss".Her mother was silent for a few moments, grimacing, as if struggling internally not to laugh at her daughter's words."You can't lie to me, Emma, I'm not stupid".The girl took something out of the fridge and began to prepare it quickly."I'm not lying to you, he's my boss...""Why would your boss come to your house?"Emma remained silent, unable to find a logical answer to that question."He is very kind, that's all"."I used to say your father was very nice to me too," laughed the woman, "Come on, Emma, we both know that's not your boss, he looks too young to be your boss, I may not have the best memory, but your boss wasn't young the last time I saw him"."Well, he's my boss's son, which is technically the same thing, mom, just that".Emma brought out the butter, making a quick

Emma finished ironing her hair, pinning it to one side, and then adjusting the dress she was wearing, a red one like the wine her family was supposed to drink that day.She looked at the time on her cell phone: seven o'clock at night. She had agreed with Leonardo that he would go to her house at seven thirty, from there, Emma would tell him where to drive to her parents' house. She still didn't understand what logical reason her mom had found to invite her boss to a family dinner, they weren't even friends, why would she invite him to her family dinner? Worse, Leonardo didn't even know his mother's name. Emma cursed, it would be too awkward for him to go to a family dinner, she knew her aunts would immediately start with the assumptions, with the off-hand comments, but even her dad seemed okay with her boss attending a family dinner, family!Emma's cell phone rang, it was a message from him. She had added him as "Boss Leonardo" always keeping formalities, although the kiss they had sh

Gladys' eyes revealed immediate surprise, but it was not even a quarter of the surprise that peered into the eyes of Emma and Leonardo, who offered each other a mutual look of bewilderment. A blush took hold of Emma's sweet cheeks, who at that moment thought that running away was the best alternative, evidently, she did not."Wh-what?" Emma asked, clenching her fists, perplexity covered by fury, "Did you...""Yes, I'm her boyfriend," interrupted Leonardo, earning a puzzled look from Emma, who looked at him as if a third arm was growing in his skull. The girl was forced to blink five times, as if she was in one of those strange dreams in which waking up was very complicated, in one of those dreams where everyone acted in a stupid and incoherent way, because only he could explain the words that came from Leonardo's lips, so much certainty was heard in them that Emma even for an instant, was prone to believe him."Congratulations, precious girl!" Gladys shrieked, with a huge smile on her
