The door opened and Lucas was coming in furious, he looked at his father and yelled at him how could he do that to him, Victor gave me a murderous look, he didn't lose his cool and told him to leave that they would talk later, Lucas of course as he had his ego hurt refused to obey him.
—Go away! —said Victor between his teeth. Lucas looked at him angrily and then stormed out. When he saw me he came up to me and grabbed me by the neck angrily —What the hell were you planning to do that for?—I hope your son feels what it's like to feel the hurt of betrayal from the person you least expect.I keep my smile and he releases me from his grip, he leans on the edge of his desk while biting his lower lip as he watches me, I know it means nothing to him that I used him for this, but it was his fault to begin with since I told him I had the wrong room and he still wouldn't let me leave.—Besides it was also a revenge for giving me a crap job, I would have preferred to be close to you than to be the messenger.He shakes his head.—I really like you, but listen to me, in these companies we are only boss and employee, just because we had sex doesn't mean you are important to me.I cocked a smile because if it did, he wouldn't be looking for me even on campus. I walked over to him and grabbed him by his coat to steal a kiss.—Look in the mirror and say it to yourself because you know very well that it's not like that. —I smile seductively before pulling away from him —I don't want your offer, I can get something better in other companies.—So you turn me down.—Yes. Just because I'm studying medicine doesn't mean I don't know anything about economics and accounting. By the way, your son is a fucking jerk and he deserves what I did to him.I left his office and went to the campus, after the afternoon fell and I received my classes, I arrived at my room exhausted, when I took out my cell phone I saw that I had many messages from Lucas, I frowned annoyed and deleted them all because for now I had had enough of him, my roommate gave me the newspaper and I saw that there was an ad where there was a vacant position as a secretary.I arrived early, I had made my appointment and was crossing my fingers hoping they would give me the position, luckily in companies like these and Victor's, they love temporary secretaries because they don't give so much trouble.When I introduced myself I was told that the president would receive me immediately, so I went straight to his office and I was surprised to see that it was someone young and that would help me feel comfortable.Just as Dad had recommended, I answered everything and added some things that apparently made the president like me.—Well, I'll be honest, I like you, I didn't expect such a response from someone so young.—Age does not matter if not wisdom and maturity.He gave me the news I was waiting for, to keep the job. I was more than happy with myself but I was curious as I thought I would see someone like Victor here too and he says his father recently passed away so he had to take over the reins of his family's company.—I promise that as long as I am working for you, I will not let you down.—I like your attitude. —I have to admit that her smile is charming —Then I'll put the information I need into the computer right away... —I received a call from the main reception and when the girl said that Victor was here, my skin bristled all over —She came in.—His company is so big that he has business with the Santoro family. —I just wanted to inquire if you know him.—Of course. —smile —Now, Maya... —I correct him to call Mey, I prefer it that way. —Okay, Mey, take your place to receive him.—Sure Mr. Clark."The look on his face when he sees me here."But I didn't have to wait that long because when I opened the door he was already in front of me and when our eyes met, a lump formed in my throat "seriously what the hell is wrong with me with this man."—Good morning Mr. Santoro, my boss is waiting for you.He raises an eyebrow with a scary expression, but I wasn't kidding when I told him that I wouldn't take what little he offered me, he pleased his son ok, then I'll find my way since he was clear when he said that just because we had sex doesn't mean I would have privileges with him.After arranging everything quickly I finished before the Ceos left, I thought it would be a short visit but apparently it was going to be a long one. By the time they left I had my lunch ready and was turning everything off to go to class, it was about three o'clock in the afternoon.—Mr. Clark, Mr. Santoro. —I said as I saw them leave.—The meeting ran long and I couldn't show up for the next meeting, you can reschedule for tomorrow.—In fact tomorrow he has a busy schedule so I moved the meetings for now, for Friday at 10:00 am and the last one for Monday first thing in the morning, those are the days he has less work to do.I keep my smile as I see that I left him astonished, after getting out of his astonishment he smiles and tells Victor that girls like me, are the ones he needs by his side. I look at Victor out of the corner of my eye "I told you that not only you are who you appear to be".—See you tomorrow Mr. Clark.I said goodbye to my boss and took the employee elevator, obviously Victor would take the other one which is for important executives. I waited for the doors to close but when they were closing a tattooed hand stopped them, intense gaze was on me and I was like "What the fuck is he doing here?—You've got the wrong elevator, the executive elevator...".I kept silent when she walked up to me and cornered me against the cold metal wall of the elevator, inside I'm melting from the fire that consumes me, but outside I try to hold her gaze.—You're not coming back here.—Of course I am. Just because we had sex doesn't give you any privileges with me.—Don't challenge me Mey, or else....—Or else what?—Have you gone mad? Your daughter is in the back and...—Shut up, damn you, if you had never shown up in our lives!—Don't look for blame," said Victor, shutting her up, "Our relationship was beyond repair and you know it.—No... —she denies with her head crying —There was hope for us, but you never wanted to forgive me and instead you cheated me with this little dead fly, you... you were unfaithful to me and even so I forgave you, but you... you only caused me pain by making me believe that you would give me a chance and then... you tell me that you love her. And I won't accept that.A scream escapes me as she shoots towards my feet, my instinct is to protect the children and Victor steps in front of us.—Oops... I missed. But it won't happen again and I don't care if I have to kill you first, love.—Wait! —Victor shouted, stopping her, "Wait! You're right... I didn't think about your feelings and the good times we had together...—Victor, what are you doing?He ignores me and approa
MEYSometimes circumstances are not what we expect to realize how valuable what we have by our side can be, that's what happened to me when I was about to lose Victor in that attack against me, what bothers me the most is that this woman doesn't even think about the damage she causes to her daughter, Laura is just a little girl who only wants her mother's love but it seems that she doesn't care at all about her daughter but about her crazy obsession for Victor, which by the way, I never thought was so huge.—Ready for your wedding?—Yes. —I look at Laura who looked beautiful in that white dress, she would wear my veil but she doesn't look very happy —Laura... —she startles when she looks at me —Are you ok?—Yes, yes, yes... I'm fine.Remorse blames me as I thought there would be no one opposing the wedding and I think she maybe wished her parents were together, so I told her if she didn't want me to marry her father to tell me so we would cancel everything in time, I don't want her to
VICTORI never thought I would be able to risk my life for someone else, but when I saw that I was about to lose her, my body moved to take her place, after that, everything became black and cold but that disappeared when I heard her voice telling me that she wouldn't let me go, that I would be okay.Everything became warm after hearing his voice telling me that. I felt something was causing weight on my hands making me open my eyes, when I did, I could see Lucas sleeping next to his mother, I couldn't move my hands let alone my neck and when I tried to make a move I moaned slightly in pain making everyone wake up.—Dad!I heard all my children calling me in chorus, Lucas reacts quickly when he sees them hug me tightly and tells them that they can't do it for now because of my condition, I ask him what had happened and he told me what had happened and that I almost died.—If it wasn't for Mey... we would have lost you.—What?... but how?—She explained everything, and she went against
When the ambulance came for him I had to say I was a doctor so they would let me accompany him, I checked and did all the evaluations until we got to the hospital, when we arrived, they told me they would keep him stable while they do the corresponding tests, when I went to the waiting room, my friend and Lucas were already there when they saw me I saw that my children were also with them, there was also Lucas's mother, my parents and Victor's father, an old man with a cane.—How is my dad?—They are doing the exams now....—Please, Mey... —lucas takes my hand —Please... don't let him die.—How could I —My heart breaks into pieces at the thought that the possibility of him dying exists —He is the love of my life and the father of my children.—Mommy.... —my children were crying —Save my daddy.I hug my children, they were happy because they were with their father and now this happened. I don't know who could be capable of this, but I know very well that he wanted to kill me, if it was
—You thought I would forget your birthday, didn't you? —I just stare at him in disbelief that he remembered. My heart thumps in my chest uncontrollably. This is more than I expected. —Every year since you've been gone I've always wondered if you were celebrating with someone else.—You brought me here by trickery. That's playing dirty.He grabs me possessively with a very sensual smile.—I don't always play fair.—Ha ha. —I said sarcastically.We sat on the meza and enjoyed our dinner, we didn't talk much as it was strange, well, in my point of view it is and I don't know what to say because actually, I'm surprised and nervous, I don't know what to say.I was finishing my dinner when he hands me a small box, I frowned as it reminded me of the one he once gave me that I thought was a gift from Clark. I was compelled to take it as he said it was one of my birthday gifts.Seeing the ring I was overwhelmed and nostalgic, it's the ring he gave me. "I thought I threw it in the trash."—It w
Things seem calm, for now, since what happened at the hotel, I woke up alone with him in the room, he was awake, Clark was gone, things didn't turn out as I expected and I couldn't stop what happened because I challenged him myself and he agreed, but he was frank in saying he would never do that again, and that he hoped after what happened he would believe in his feelings for me.He gave me a week to think about his proposal, a chance for us to be the family we always wanted, it has been four days since then, he hasn't shown up, not even to see my twins, as far as I understand he looks at them when Lucas takes them to live with his daughter.The only thing I know about Clark is that he went on a long trip, I wanted to talk to him because I felt we should talk about what happened, but his answer was simple "it is better to forget about it" and the last thing he said was that he already had an answer for both of us and about my doubts which I still had during the time I lived in Europe.
