She had expected it to be for his drooling hot grandson, Knox Zachary Cromwell, the one she nurtured a crush on. Knox tried everything in his power to stop his grandfather from getting married to produce an heir. When nothing worked, he proposed a deal to Danielle to give him a male heir in return for a huge amount of money. Her love for him, her need to save her business, made her give in. However, she gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl. Soon, Vincent Cromwell married against his grandson's wishes. Thinking it was an underhanded ploy, Knox destroyed Danielle’s business. Danielle left the city forever with her daughter, handing him his male heir. Would Knox ever realize what he had done?

If bunches of misunderstood kids couldn’t even help one another out, who else would help them?” he said and left.

Mis padres hicieron que Dana y yo lo resolviéramos con piedra, papel o tijera. La perdedora debía casarse con el heredero de los Baillieu, el llamado "bicho raro". Gané yo. Luego le di la vuelta a la situación. —Genial. Yo me quedo con Blake. Dana puede tener el imperio. ¿La vida anterior? Estaba locamente enamorada de Michael, el niño mimado adoptado por papá. Elegí la empresa, me quedé en la empresa y le endosé a Dana con Blake Baillieu. Fue un gran error. En seis meses, Dana ya murió, destrozada por aquel matrimonio. Justo antes de morir, me envió un mensaje, culpándome a mí. Decía que yo había perdido el juego y había roto el trato, endilgándole a Blake. ¿Y Michael? Se volvió completamente loco. Resulta que él y Dana habían estado saliendo a escondidas durante años. Me arrastró a la parte trasera de la finca de los Baillieu y obligó a una docena de hombres con discapacidad intelectual a violarme. —¡Si no fuera por tu crueldad, Dana seguiría viva! ¡Pagarás por todo lo que ella sufrió! Yo estaba embarazada de más de ocho meses, casi a punto de dar a luz. Le supliqué que parara. Le rogué por la vida de mi bebé. A él no le importó. Siguió ordenándoles que tomaran turnos. Incluso cuando rompió fuente, él solo observaba. Mi bebé y yo morimos aquella noche. ¿Ahora? Volví. Y esta vez, reescribí la historia. Primer paso: casarme con Blake.

De camino a ver a mi novio, que seguía haciendo horas extras, sufrí un fuerte accidente de tránsito. Lo llamé decenas de veces, pidiéndole ayuda, pero no respondió ni una sola vez. A lo lejos, el edificio de su empresa seguía iluminado, con las luces encendidas, como si nada hubiera pasado, y la desesperación terminó por devorarme. Cuando desperté en el hospital, vi una publicación de una subordinada suya: “¿Qué hacer cuando tu jefe te regaña en plena madrugada?” La imagen mostraba el reflejo de ambos en el vidrio de una puerta. La cercanía entre ellos era tan evidente que claramente había cruzado los límites de una relación laboral normal. Sin darme por vencida, volví a llamar a Alfonso González. Esta vez, por fin contestó. Con la voz quebrada, apenas logré decir: —Alfonso, tuve un accidente de auto. —Paula, ando ocupado —respondió con frialdad—. Haré que mi asistente se encargue, ¿de acuerdo? Sé buena, ¿sí? Cuando termine este viaje de trabajo, regresaré para acompañarte. Intenté seguir hablando, pero su grito interrumpió todo: —¡Bárbara! ¿Te vas con una sola maleta? ¿Y entonces por qué traes tres? ¿Piensas irte de vacaciones o qué? Bárbara Garza era la nueva pasante que Alfonso acababa de contratar. Miré el teléfono. La llamada ya se había cortado, y las lágrimas ya estaban secas en el rostro. Luego marqué otro número: —Acepto el matrimonio arreglado.

Divorciados y vueltos a casar. Ya ni sé cuántas veces Aaron y yo hemos pasado por lo mismo. Antes me trataba como si yo fuera lo más valioso para él, pero no había pasado ni un año de la boda cuando me pidió el divorcio por primera vez. La razón era sencilla: Vivian iba a regresar. —Vivian es una figura pública —me dijo—. No quiero que nadie piense que se está metiendo con un hombre casado. Esa actriz de cuarta no era nadie si no fuera por el sacrificio de su padre. Le dieron un balazo que iba para Aaron. Una vida por otra. Y por eso, Aaron sentía que le debía todo. Cada vez que Vivian volvía al país, Aaron se divorciaba de mí. Y cada vez que se iba, nos volvíamos a casar. La primera vez que terminamos, ahogué mis penas en whisky y volví a su casa a tropezones, medio borracha. Las luces de la casa se veían cálidas. Estaba con ella. Y yo me quedé afuera, temblando de frío, resistiendo la noche entera. La segunda vez, le seguí el rastro a todos lados; restaurantes, subastas, galas de beneficencia, solo para “encontrármelo por accidente” una y otra vez. Con el tiempo, aprendí. En cuanto mencionaba el divorcio, yo hacía mi maleta en silencio y me iba de su mansión sin hacer ruido. Mi amor y la humillación me mantuvieron atrapada en ese ciclo interminable de rupturas y reconciliaciones. Pero esta vez, cuando Aaron me esperó en el registro civil para volver a casarnos, no fui.
