Chapter: Chapter 16: Unusual situationAdeline tried vainly to contain the anger she felt after Humberto's threat.“By what right did he dare to want to control her outings? What did he care about? What time did she get home?” she wondered, feeling her fury grow and grow.She took a deep breath, trying to calm down, and resolved not to let her ex-husband dictate her life. Of course, she would go out as often as she wanted and meet new people. She would show Humberto and everyone else that she was still an interesting woman, a woman capable of rebuilding her life in every sense.Every day, Adeline was the first to get up. Before getting ready to make breakfast for her children, she took exactly forty-five minutes to exercise. This was an arduous task that was difficult for her to keep up, but she committed herself that she didn't want to break.“Mommy, are you only going to have that apple for breakfast?“ asked her son Alberto.“Yes, dear.”“But why so little, Mom?” the youngest one intervened, as he put a piece of pancake

Chapter: Chapter 15: Threats“Until you deign to come,“ Adeline said to the man in front of her.“I've been busy,” the man said, defending himself, with a shrug of the shoulders. “I don't have as much free time as you.”“Like me? What are you talking about, Humberto?”“That you've always been lazy.”“Don't be insolent!”“What are you taking offense at?” she said shamelessly. ”You always preferred to stay at home and laze around.”“Well, you're wrong if that's what you think,“ she clarified. ‘I always wanted to work, but your macho beliefs prevented me from doing so. Besides, housework is just as important.’“Now it turns out it's my fault!” he said indignantly.“Of course it is.”“Find my children, woman. I didn't come here to waste my time arguing with you.““Of course not,” she said and went to tell the children that their father was there.As expected, her three little ones ran down the stairs to meet the man, who took them in his arms and gave them a big hug.It was the weekend, so Adeline had other activitie

Chapter: Chapter 14: You are not a rivalAdeline had decided to distance herself. She knew what it meant to feel betrayed and she didn't want another woman to experience that same suffering. Actually, she had no idea what Anthony's intentions were, all she knew was that he was engaged and that he was probably very confused as well. Because, otherwise, who in their right mind would trade such a beautiful girlfriend for her?Though of course, it wasn't as if Anthony had confessed his love to her or anything. However, he had expressed his desire to kiss her and that was still something just as dangerous. So he preferred not to risk it or be tempted.“I want to cancel my subscription," Adeline told the gym manager. “I knew you would give up, but I didn't imagine it would be so soon.”Leyla didn't hold back when she let out her venom. It was clear from the beginning that the woman did not think highly of her."I'm not giving up" she felt the desire to explain herself, she couldn't let Leyla or anyone else underestimate her like

Chapter: Chapter 13: Just a dream
Adeline's mind was trying to process what was happening. All she knew was that Anthony's lips were moving hungrily over hers. A second later, she found herself gasping for air. It was not like her. The heat flooding her body could not be expected. She could not feel such longing and desire for a simple kiss. “What was going on?” she asked herself again. It had been a long time since she had felt like this. She did not even remember having felt like this in the moments of intimacy with her ex-husband. Those nights were completely monotonous, and she had never really experienced what sexual pleasure was. Humberto was a man who always thought only of his enjoyment, and she was a woman who had become too complacent. A bad combination, now that she thought about it. However, at that moment, in that light touch of lips, she could feel the adrenaline coursing through her system and moistening her most intimate area. She was aware of how exposed they were, that surely someone could be wa

Chapter: Chapter 12: A chaotic party
As soon as Adeline found herself in front of these three men, she knew that something was not quite right.One of them started to laugh and, instantly, a chorus of laughter rose amidst the sound of the strident music. Adeline shrank even further at that moment, feeling like the butt of all the jokes.“Guys, this is Adeline, the woman I told you about,” Anthony raised his voice and introduce her to stop the laughter.“You must be joking, dude,“ one replied bitterly.“No, I'm not joking,”. Seriousness was present in his voice.“Please,” said another exasperatedly. ”just look at her, Do you think we came here looking for that kind of woman?”At those derogatory words, something broke inside her heart. She was a realist, so she had not had any illusions about that night, but even so, she felt sadness on hearing out loud what they thought of her.“She's fat,“ she knew that was what they wanted to say to her.“Adeline, she's a beautiful woman,” Anthony tried to defend her.“On what planet?”

Chapter: Chapter 11: The babysitter
Hiring a babysitter was not difficult. There were many available “online”, but even so, she preferred to ask for the contact details of her niece's babysitter. Gustavo asked her a series of questions before agreeing to give her the number: “Where will you go?” “Who will accompany you?”“Be very careful, Adeline. An accident could happen to you”His brother had always been very overprotective and after his accident, he had become much more paranoid. Adeline felt sorry for his situation and how much he was suffering. She knew that after the death of his wife and that traffic accident that left him in a wheelchair, he was never the same again. There was no way he could be the same again, but if he did not give up, it was for his daughter.Carol, the babysitter, was an outstanding young university student. In her free time, she took care of children and was studying to be a teacher. “Nice to meet you, Mrs. Cooper,“ I greeted her as soon as she opened the door. “Nice to meet you, Caro
