Chapter 102Miguel could tell by the denseness of air the moment he stepped into the conference room. The legal team had already assembled;papers and files scattered along the length of the table but neither were these where his attention was directed. His eyes went straight to Ximena, seated at the head of the table, distant with her gaze into a stack of documents.She hadn't been acting like herself lately; she was physically there, yet felt like her mind was a thousand miles away. He'd been noticing this often over the past few weeks; how distant she kept herself, the way she dodged his questions when things became personal. Then there was Charles.Miguel hated to admit it, but something was off. He wasn't sure whether his jealousy was talking or whether Ximena was actually slipping away from him. Having Charles back into the picture didn't help matters either. "Let's get started," Ximena said, her voice dragging Miguel from his thoughts. She didn't look up from the papers in

Chapter 104Charles didn't flinch; he never said a word. He did absolutely nothing but stared deep into her eyes, knowing full well whatever she did next would change it all.Miguel fought to breathe as he stormed out of O'Malley's. His heart racing in his ears, his mind reeled from all he had just seen and heard.His instincts told him his companionship with Ximena had gone all wrong, but seeing her with Charles like that made everything so real in such a painful way. Outside, the cold did nothing to calm the fire burning inside. He clenched his fists and kept down the street, trying to get as much distance as possible from that damned bar.He wasn't sure what was worse, either the fact that she hadn't told him about seeing Charles or the way that she'd looked at him, like there still was something between them.Miguel stopped abruptly as his chest heaved with frustration. He wanted to hit something, anything; just that wasn't going to solve anything. He needed to think. He needed

Chapter 106Ximena was sitting in the conference room, head spinning, as the lawyers drone on over Vega's latest maneuver. She tried to concentrate on the strategy, but her mind kept wandering back to the conversation with Miguel in the park. The words that had hit her hard, harder than she wanted to admit.She knew he was right-the fact that she lived in denial, using the chaos of the company as a curtain to get away from the mess of her emotions.But she couldn't hide anymore. Miguel had given her an ultimatum, though he hadn't said it in so many words. She could see it in his eyes; he would not wait forever. And she didn't blame him.How was he not to act, when she was vacillating between him and Charles, between love and the past?"Ximena, did you hear what I said?" Miguel's voice cut through her inner space.She blinked, finally came to her senses, looking up to realize the whole room was looking at her. Her cheeks colored in embarrassment. "I'm sorry, what was that?"Miguel's j

Chapter 108Charles' SecretMiguel stood outside the courtroom, the weight of everything still heavy on his shoulders. The trial had gone better than expected, and they had Vega on the ropes. Exposing those offshore accounts had been a game-changer, and the satisfaction of watching Vega’s legal team scramble to salvage their case was almost enough to make him forget about everything else.Almost.He glanced at Ximena, who stood a few feet away, staring down at her phone. Her brow was furrowed, her lips pressed into a thin line. She hadn’t said much since the recess was called, and Miguel knew something was bothering her. He’d seen the text she’d received earlier, the one that had shifted the mood. The message from an investigator, something about Charles.Miguel had known for a while now that Charles was more involved with Vega than he let on. He had been digging around in the background, quietly gathering information, and the pieces were finally starting to fall into place. Bu

Chapter 110 The Makeup DinnerBy morning, Ximena woke up restless, her heart racing. The night with Miguel was truly passionate, strong; she let go of herself towards his desires at that very hot moment. Now, in the sun streams going through the window of her apartment, she couldn't help but wonder whether that was what should have been done.It had seemed such a cowardly thing to do, leaving Miguel's apartment while he was still asleep, but it had been a needed thing; space to clear her mind and unravel the tangled mess her emotions had become.She'd felt squeezed by the weight of the Vega case and strained relationships with both Miguel and Charles, like she was drowning.She let out a deep sigh and pulled the blankets away, sitting up in bed.The fight against Vega was about over-the one that plagued her heart was about to begin.And every moment with one or the other just always seemed to drop her deeper into confusion.Her phone buzzed on the nightstand, pulling her from her t
