Only one person in the world had such strange tastes, a person who, of course, was dead. Even if the woman in front of her was not the same Paula, Salomé had come to that place for a reason and that reason Gertrudis was going to end up discovering. "Tell me, why are you interested in a place like this? As far as I know, you have been a very important woman, why do business with the Vitals?""Well, the truth is that it's not exactly them," said Salomé, drinking her tea, having brought it."So what are new businesses about?""Mmm, what I'm looking for right now is to have a very productive source in which I can invest, they told me that the Vitals are one of the most stable people in a business like the one I want to do."Salomé knew perfectly well that the way to grab Gertrudis was through money, it was what she loved the most and it was precisely at that moment that she was going to take the first step against her."Can I know what type of business we are talking about?" "Of course
Legs crossed, one hand holding the glass of wine she had been drinking for the last fifteen minutes, she didn't care how much time passed, she was going to wait for her until she deigned to enter through that door while in the armchair in front of her. There was the baby's crib that she had brought from the hospital no more than six hours ago.“Please come in, miss,” said one of the servers.Being the woman that only she could be, she stood up from her spot the moment she heard her daughter."Mother, mother? Mother, I have news for you!"With one hand on her waist, Emma found Gertrudis looking at her as she rarely did, she motioned for her to come closer."Mother, what is happening?""You're an idiot!" And taking out her anger, Gertrudis slapped her daughter. "I can't believe how far you've come to be such an idiot.""What are you talking about, mother?" "Go away, go away with that child because I don't want him anymore!""Mother, what is happening?""Don't call me mother, I don't w
Signing the last document that Humberto had given her in that yellow envelope, Gertrudis smiled as she handed him the documents. Only that signature was going to validate the decision she had made.Gertrudis was tired of being just the widow of a man who had left her with a fortune, but a fortune that she had not wanted to use until that moment."Are you sure what you are going to do, my lady?" Humberto asked."Of course I'm sure. My daughter is still inept and content with just being a model when she knows perfectly well that she could be the competition of her own husband." "That is why you should be the patron saint of this entire country.""Shall I tell you something?""Whatever you want, my lady. You already know that my duty is to listen to you.""There is something about that woman, the wife of this Montenegro, that I don't like. If only you had been there the night of the celebration, you would have realized many things. That's why I see the need to do this. It is said that t
Emma was not the only one who had seen that young couple who hugged each other as if they were meant for each other, and supported each other in good and bad times, Gertrudis had also seen them from the second floor, which was where she talked to Humberto about some issue that had arisen, nothing important."Is she the woman who was at the celebration yesterday?" She asked.Of course Humberto couldn't understand because he hadn't been there the night before."What are you talking about, my lady?""That woman, who does she think she is hugging my son-in-law like that?"Humberto smiled. "No, I don't understand.""Yesterday, that woman you see there was at the celebration, she is a very powerful woman, she is married to an important man too, what is she up to, huh?""I don't know, my lady, but ask me anything and I'll take care of the rest."Gertrudis shook her head. "No, of course I don't want you to do anything now. I just want to know why she is here, she seems very interested in ever
The world around her could disappear at that very moment because it was not against it that she had that feeling of revenge, it was against just that person who was not there to receive her."Good morning, lady Montenegro.""Salomé Sorín," she corrected.Everyone around her didn't know how to do anything but look at each other."I can assert my name on my own, I don't need my husband's last name. And where is Mr. Vital? Did I get the date wrong and wasn't today the most important meeting we would have?" "Ms. Sorín, it happens that Mr. Vital has not even called to say that he is going to cancel the meeting, we have tried to call him a thousand times.""Cancel the meeting? I don't like being snubbed.""No, of course not. I will continue trying to contact him."Salome sighed. Only that was missing.She saw the world running around her because everyone there knew what the power of the Sorín could mean in a country that until now had the pleasure of living with them, the men knew that
"Who do you think you are? What's wrong with you, Maximilian?! Don't even think about doing what you did outside the house again because I won't answer the other time!" Salomé shouted again and again as they entered the large house they had bought. And Manuel walked behind them, unable to stop smiling discreetly."I already told you, Salomé! I had to kiss you because Alexander was watching us from behind!""What a nice excuse you had to do it!""Think whatever you want, I'm not interested in you in that way!""I already told you not to do something again that I haven't given you permission to do!" With that, Salomé went up the stairs going straight to her room.She was furious, she was tired of men wanting to do anything with her. Salomé was no longer the same. Paula had died, Salomé was not going to allow any man to lay a hand on her.When she got to her room, Salomé closed the doors while her chest rose and fell with total difficulty.She couldn't get what had happened out of her mi
