Mi esposo, Alejandro Montoya, el presidente del grupo, creyó que los tres meses de frialdad calculada que, por iniciativa propia, me impuso finalmente habían dado resultado, cuando se enteró de que yo había cedido voluntariamente un proyecto millonario a su asistente favorita. Convencido de que ya me había “domado”, propuso llevarme a Nordella para nuestra luna de miel. Pero cuando Sofía Vega, la asistente a la que más consentía, se enteró, los celos la desbordaron y armó un escándalo, amenazando con renunciar a la empresa. Mi esposo, que siempre la había consentido, entró en pánico. Después de pasar tres días y tres noches atendiendo sus caprichos, usó un viaje de negocios como excusa para cancelar nuevamente nuestra luna de miel y entregarle el otro boleto a Sofía. Mas tarde, me explicó todo con total indiferencia. —El amor y los sentimientos son cosas sin importancia, lo importante es el trabajo. Como jefe, debo poner a la empresa en primer lugar. Tú eres mi esposa, deberías apoyarme, ¿no? Miré el celular, en el último estado de Sofía, aparecía una foto de ambos, con las cabezas juntas y las manos formando un corazón, como una pareja enamorada. No dije nada, solo asentí. Alejandro creyó que me había vuelto comprensiva y madura. Quedó muy satisfecho e incluso prometió que, al regresar al país, me compensaría con una luna de miel aún más romántica. Lo que no sabía era que yo ya había presentado mi renuncia. Y que él mismo había firmado, hacía tiempo, el acuerdo de divorcio. Entre él y yo, ya no existía ningún futuro.
