Enrico was reading the news in the newspaper, sitting in his old, worn-out chair, and his expression changed with every sentence he read. His heart filled with certainty as he neared the end: Alessia was involved in this.

He crumpled the newspaper and threw it away. He shouldn’t care about the daughter he has never shown affection for. Antonella had always been neglected by him; although, deep down, he loved her, he never showed it.

He stood up impatiently, realizing that Alessia was a lost cause. He concluded that even his different treatment of his daughters hadn’t influenced them. While Antonella, who was always scolded and mistreated by him, caused less trouble, Alessia, who had always had everything, was the one who caused the most.

He blamed himself for the way he had raised them and felt enormous relief that Francesca wasn’t alive to see the family fall apart.

Suddenly, Enrico's shouts were heard from afar. Fabricio’s hurried footsteps echoed on the old wooden floor as he heade

    “Enrico sent over the photos from the trip.” Benjamim’s voice made Antonella run toward him and eagerly take the phone from his hands.“Who would have thought he and Carmella would take a trip abroad together?” Her eyes sparkled with each photo that appeared on the phone screen. “The one who isn’t happy about it at all is Dominique. You nearly made her quit for the second time.”“Dominique needs to find herself a boyfriend.” Benjamim’s comment made Antonella burst out in a loud, contagious laugh. “You should give her some advice. A romance would do her good, don’t you think?”“What do you know about romance, Benjamim?” She stopped in front of him as she felt his arms wrap around her waist and pull her close.“I’m living the greatest romance of all time,” he kissed her intensely, “and you think I don’t understand?”“I’ve never felt so loved in my entire life,” she said, captivated by the glow in his eyes. “In that case, you should tell Dominique.”“Better not risk losing my competent e

    “I don’t like this conversation.” Dominique looked at Enrico and then at Carmella, but neither of them caught her comment.“Let them enjoy themselves.” She didn’t notice Antonella approaching, and suddenly, her presence silenced her for a few moments.Could this closeness mean something?“My father with your mother?” she scoffed, mocking the sudden thought that crossed her mind. “I really like your friendship, Antonella, but heaven forbid I see those two together.”Suddenly, they both went silent and looked at each other, realizing they needed to repair the damaged connection between them. Antonella turned to her and, pulling her arm, hugged her.“Let’s forget everything that happened,” she said, holding Dominique so tightly that she felt winded. “I’ve already made up with Benjamim; there’s no reason for us to keep fighting.”“I don’t like the idea of life revolving around Benjamim,” she said, feeling relieved as Antonella pulled away. “We were friends before he came along; it should

    Benjamin watched as the tiny scraps of paper fluttered through the air when Antonella reached into her pocket, pulled out another paper, and handed it to him.“Why are you doing this?” It wasn’t what he should have said, especially after just hearing that she loved him.“You knew the truth,” she said, still holding out Helen’s letter to him. “Carlota told you everything was part of a plan to separate us.”“How did you know that?”Benjamin’s gaze fell onto the paper. He finally decided to take it and read what was written. Then he looked back at her. They were both nervous and awkward around each other, like two people on a first date—Benjamin embarrassed, Antonella regretful.“You were going to let me sign the divorce papers without knowing the truth?”“You wouldn’t have believed me, just like you didn’t believe me before.”A tear slipped from her eye. She deserved to hear this because she should have trusted him, despite all the lies.“I know that knowing me has brought you pain and

    Dominique saw Benjamim’s car park in front of her house, and her heart raced uncontrollably. At first, she thought about hiding, grabbing her old Chevette with the excuse that she’d go around town seeking employment, just to avoid talking to him. But no one would believe her excuses.For a week, Dominique hadn’t left the house, and every day, Carmella would bring up the same topic: how her decision to quit had been immature.She had regretted it a few times during that week away from work. She thought about calling Benjamim and begging him to take her back, but she backed down each time she remembered what he had done and how, because of his actions, her friendship with Antonella was deteriorating.Antonella wasn’t replying to her messages or returning her calls. She felt that Antonella would never forgive her for that. She saw Carmella rush to the door when she spotted little Adam getting out of the car. It was clear that her mother wouldn’t question Benjamim’s presence. She had alre

    Antonella watched through her bedroom window as Benjamim arrived. He rushed into the house as if there were a time-sensitive matter to settle. She heard his footsteps climbing the stairs, approaching her room, stopping in front of her door, and then disappearing.Her heart pounded so hard in her chest that, for a moment, she considered going to him and asking what had happened. But she reminded herself that they hadn’t spoken in a long time and that she no longer had the right to ask him anything.She lay back down beside Adam and tried to sleep.When she woke up the next morning, she noticed that Adam was no longer beside her. She quickly got up to search for the boy, finding him downstairs with Benjamim and the lawyer.She found it odd that he was there so early in the morning. Not only that, but she approached them slowly, unnoticed at first, but it was inevitable.“Mommy,” Adam called, making everyone turn to look at Antonella.The boy ran to embrace her. It was impossible for her

    Benjamim didn’t think much about what Vladir was proposing to him. He only wished for the nightmare to end and for his life to return to normal. He bent down, kissed Adam, and promised he’d be back soon. Then he looked at Antonella. He wanted to kiss her too, but he turned away silently and left.If he could at least feel the energy radiating from her, he’d know how much Antonella wanted to say something to him—to hold his hand and go with him. But she held back that feeling, even though she knew, once again, that she wouldn’t be able to sleep, worried about Benjamim.“Did you really cheat on her?” Vladir stopped on the other side of the patrol car and looked Benjamim in the eyes, doubt etched on his face.“I can’t believe I’m having this conversation with you,” he said, getting into the vehicle.“I honestly thought you’d changed.” Vladir sat down at the wheel and started the engine. “That you weren’t the jerk who tricked my sister. Was that whole sweet talk about loving Antonella a l
