LukeThe sun was ready to go. The sky had orange tones and the moon already appeared beautiful in the still clear sky of Rio de Janeiro. I was driving in the middle of rush hour. Everyone seemed to want to go home simultaneously, and the city descended into chaos. I could have asked Dionísio why he was so urgent to introduce me as the new president of beta gonsales, if I hadn’t even given an answer about that. Stopped at the traffic light, I looked at the beach and said goodbye to the good life I had. From there, it was work and stress. I snorted as I stepped on the gas. In addition to the chaotic traffic, I would still have to hide in an office and do things I didn’t know about.When I parked the car, I noticed that there was a very large movement of people outside. Dionísio hadn’t warned me about that either. I passed well in the crowd and questions like. Are you ready to be the new president of the beta? It almost made me want to run out of there almost immediately.Right at the en

Luke I was already in the gonsales beta when I decided to call Aurora. The first attempt was unsuccessful. I tried again, and as I walked back and forth in my father’s office, someone answered the call. “Aurora, we need to talk”, I slurred the words and got straight to the point. “I’m sorry, Luke,” I huffed in disappointment. “it’s not Aurora, and apparently she doesn’t want to talk to you. “Hi Naldo”, I said without any enthusiasm “So excited to talk to your old friend,” he complained good-naturedly. “by the way, you didn’t call me during those months you were missing.” “I’m sorry”, I ran my hand over my temple, “I won’t apologize, it was a mistake”. “I like your sincerity,” he laughed. “What’s this about being the new president of beta gonsales?” “They decided for me,” I got nervous. “I was forced to accept the position, so I didn’t tell Aurora anything.” “She’s suspicious of you,” gave the game away and went further, “And I don’t blame her. There’s a picture of you with a b

Luke“We need to talk”That sentence made me speechless. I’ve never been so afraid of losing someone as I was feeling of losing Aurora. But I needed to say something to convince her that it was all a mistake.“Why didn’t you tell me that you would be the new president of beta gonsales?”“I wasn’t going to be,” I confessed. “that wasn’t in my plans. I was called in for a surprise meeting and when I got there, I was simply appointed.”“Are you telling me that they force you to do this, like Gonzalo forced you to come to Brasília?”I could hear in Aurora’s voice how irritated and impatient she was with me.“These are two completely different things”, my voice almost didn’t come out, “I didn’t want to accept being president, but I accepted and signed the paper willingly.“Then don’t lie to me,” the irritation rose, “don’t promise me things you can’t keep.”“I didn’t lie when I said I want to be with you.”“And where are you now, Luke?”, her voice cracked. “where are you when I need you mo

Luke I pulled away almost immediately. The sweet taste of coffee coming off her lips reminded me of Aurora. For doing this, I felt like a traitor. I walked around the table, headed down and walked towards the window. Julie was behind me when I heard her footsteps. — I’m sorry, – she didn’t seem sorry – I was sad and ended up mixing things up. I looked at her and realized how embarrassed I was at that moment. Then I, Luke Fagundes, whose favorite hobby was making out with beautiful women, awkwardly because he had kissed one. — Julie, – I took a deep breath – I… But the words stopped right in the middle of my throat. I didn’t know how to say it. — You have a girlfriend, – he stated with almost certainty. – I shouldn’t have done that. — It shouldn’t,– I said finally. – I hope our relationship is just professional.” — Clear! – he let out a dull smile. – Gonzalo spoke so highly of you, that I thought… — Was it in Gonzalo’s plans for you to conquer me, too? She looked at me, startl

LukeI drove like crazy through the streets of Rio de Janeiro. Next to me, on the passenger seat, my cell phone kept ringing. The screen indicated that it was Dionysus. It was clear to me that he wasn’t going to accept my decision that easily, but I didn’t care. I was giving up on Gonzalo’s plans, and they would have to accept Natalia in my place. I parked the car outside the mansion and ran into the house, scaring Helena and Natalia who had gathered in the garden. — What happened? – Natalia was right behind me, going up the stairs. — I’m going to Brasília – I informed as soon as I entered my room and took the dusty suitcase off the top of the wardrobe – I need you to assume the presidency of beta gonsales. — You must be going crazy. – The second piece of information made her forget the importance of the first one. — Aurora disappeared. – I widened my eyes when I looked at her – I can’t stay here, managing a company while the woman I love is at risk of life. — I agree with you, –
