Chapter 130

Author: Maria Anita
Alexander’s POV

It's been a month since Catherine and I had that furtive encounter in the elevator. How intense it had been! I was dying to see her - we'd been apart for two long, difficult months. She'd been avoiding me in every possible way. Rick and Samantha, following her request, would alert her whenever I left my office or went to Patrick's room, giving her the chance to dodge me.

Mari was back to spend another week with us. On Saturday, we'd have a crucial meeting about the audit, which seemed to be nearing its end. But today, I had to do something I really didn't want to - I had to accompany that unbearable Caroline to her gynecologist appointment for her first ultrasound. I wasn't the least bit excited about it.

The appointment was scheduled for the end of the day, so I spent the entire day irritated and unable to focus on work. I avoided meeting that annoying woman, and the lawyer had become the middleman for any communication between us. The poor guy had practically turned i

    Hannah's POVAfter lunch, we returned to the hospital. While Boris met with my boss, Raina and Melissa closed the apartment sale. Adele and Rubina stayed around chatting with me. But Boris's meeting didn't take long, and soon everyone left. I was quite absorbed in my work - it was already mid-afternoon and the girls had been gone for a while - when Melissa suddenly appeared in front of my desk again. I found it very strange."Mel?! Did something happen?" She looked very serious and seemed to have been crying."Can we have a coffee, tagalong? I need to tell you something," she spoke quite seriously, increasing my concern."Of course we can! Fred isn't here. Do you need him? I can locate him in the hospital!" I asked because I was really worried about her."No need. I just want to tell you something and get you ready. And I'll need your help, Rubens!" Melissa was scaring me, so I grabbed my purse and hurried with her to the hospital cafeteria.Rubens and Douglas made us sit down and went

    Rafael's POVI slowly turned around to see Giovanna's face while she was talking to Melissa in that disrespectful tone, and Melissa was staring at her in disbelief at what she was hearing, completely shocked."Mel, how could you marry that idiot Fernando? He doesn't deserve you! You need to leave that boring guy. And you even let my dad date that Hannah!" Giovanna started complaining as if she owned the truth, as if she knew everything."What is this, Giovanna? Fernando has always treated you so well! It doesn't make sense for you to talk about him like that! And even less about Hannah, who is a wonderful person!" Melissa called out Giovanna, who clicked her tongue and made a face."Hannah is a phony! And that Fernando, Mel, is an idiot! You deserve..." Giovanna started to speak and I was about to scold her, but Melissa reacted faster than me, who was embarrassed by my daughter's rudeness."Giovanna, Fernando is my husband, the man I love and the father of my children. If you can't res

    Rafael's POVAfter Anderson made Giovanna stop throwing her tantrum, we ate lunch in silence. Every now and then, Giovanna would sneak glances at me or Anderson, trying to be subtle. I wanted to take my daughter in my arms and rock her like a baby, but I wanted her to want my fatherly affection.When she started eating, clearly enjoying the familiar taste of home, of what meant comfort to her, I got emotional and wanted to kiss Anderson on the forehead for what he'd done. That young man was being incredibly mature and patient and was starting to have a positive influence on Giovanna. He would be a good friend for her."Very good, everyone cleaned their plates, so now it's dessert time!" I said after lunch, and before Giovanna could open her mouth to say she didn't want any, I continued. "Lava cake with vanilla ice cream!""Oh, boss! Keep this up and I'll end up proposing to you, even though you're not my type, but man, you cook so well!" Anderson joked and looked at Giovanna. "I love l

    Giovanna's POVI didn't understand why my father, who had always been so good and loving to me, was against me like this. But it was my mother's fault; she always got into his head. Sometimes I wished they were those parents who hated each other, who fought over everything and only remembered they had a child when they needed to use her to attack one another. But no, my parents couldn't be normal and hate each other; they had to be "best friends forever", always like that, the best buddies in the world.But I was going to show my father how bad what he was doing to me was. I was going to make that Hannah hate him, just so he could feel what I was feeling, how awful it was to be separated from someone you loved. Maybe then he would think again and understand and support me. I just had to think very carefully about how I would make that woman freak out, what would be the first thing I'd do to make her start going crazy and want to stay away from my father."Gia, come on, it's lunchtime."

    Raina's POVI really liked Hannah so much. She was so friendly and kind, and handled my daughter so well that I was even impressed! But she also had a sad story, had a lot to teach, and I felt she could be a great influence on Giovanna. Then she offered to help me, which made me like her even more, because anyone else would have simply ignored the situation or been bothered by my presence, which I could understand, but Hannah did differently and welcomed me. She understood the difficult moment I was facing and chose to extend her hand to me.And with Rafael's support and Hannah’s help, I felt that bringing Giovanna back was the best thing I did, because here my daughter would have me and her father, and would also have Hannah, who seemed very willing to support Rafa and help get Giovanna back on the right track. I felt so guilty about what was happening!If I hadn't accepted that job in Japan, maybe my daughter wouldn't hate me, but at that time the offer was so good and Rafael didn't

    Hannah's POVI was trusting again, after so long, when I didn't even think it was possible to overcome all that horror I had lived through. But Rafael made me trust, he was patient and he was kind. I was happy like I hadn't felt in a long time and I wanted to share what I felt, I wanted to see people happy and I was going to start with Rubens, then Raina."Big Brute, tell me the details about yesterday, come on. I love a story with a happy ending!" I asked and Rubens laughed."Shorty, Blondie is amazing!" He gave a big smile. "I still can't believe she was interested in me.""Why not, Rubens? You're a handsome guy!" I said and he smiled."You think so?" He puffed out his chest and I laughed."I do! Now tell me what happened in my kitchen?" I wanted to know."In the kitchen we just talked. I mean, she talked, I just stood there dumbfounded looking at her. She's way too beautiful!" Rubens was totally smitten with Rubina."Okay, but then you took her to your place. What happened?""Oh, we
