En el octavo año de noviazgo, me interpuse para recibir un cuchillazo que iba dirigido a mi novio, el médico Sebastián Herrera. Él me prometió que podía pedir cualquier cosa a cambio. Todos pensaron que aprovecharía la ocasión para pedirle matrimonio. Yo, en cambio, dije con calma: —Terminemos. Dicho eso, me di la vuelta y me fui. Sebastián sonrió con desdén y apostó con los presentes: —Es solo que quiere llamar la atención; apuesto a que en tres días vuelve llorando a suplicarme que volvamos… Pero se equivocó. Porque yo guardo un secreto: he renacido. En la vida anterior conseguí casarme con él, pero el gran amor de su vida, Camila Duarte, se tiró desde la azotea. Él volcó toda su rabia en mí. La noche de la boda me rasgó la cara; me encerró en un sótano oscuro y estrecho. Cuando quedé embarazada me obligó a tomar cantidades enormes de suplementos.

Renací y volví al día en que me puse delante del cuchillo por Sebastián. Esta vez, hago exactamente lo que él espera de mí.

Tras tres días sin dar señales de vida, mi prometido —el Capo de la familia Moretti— se fue de viaje con su asistente, Bella. Esperaba que, como siempre, yo me muriera de celos. Pero cuando regresó a Valmont un mes después… se encontró con alguien completamente distinta. Me pidió que le cediera mi oficina. No discutí. Recogí mis cosas y se la entregué. Para hacer brillar a Bella, me dejó en evidencia frente a un socio clave durante la reunión anual de la familia. No me defendí. Acepté el castigo sin decir una palabra. Cuando decidió ponerla al frente del negocio más rentable… tampoco reaccioné. Le entregué todos los documentos y me aparté. Bella sonreía con aire triunfante. —¿Ves? Te lo dije. —A mujeres como ella hay que saber llevarlas. Con un viajecito basta para que se asuste y vuelva dócil. Lucas se lo creyó todo. Incluso la elogió por su “gran intuición”. Después, en un gesto que jamás había tenido conmigo, prometió organizar una boda tan ostentosa que haría historia en el bajo mundo de Valmont. Pero había olvidado algo. El acuerdo de ruptura que firmó… justo antes de subirse al coche aquel día. Yo ya había cortado todos los lazos. Me iba. Y él… ni siquiera lo sospechaba.

Albert Roosevelt was the crush I was never meant to have. Like an idiot, I believed loving someone meant giving them everything, even if they didn't care about you. So, I trailed after him like a desperate puppy, bending over backward to meet his every whim. When he couldn't afford tuition, I begged Dad to fund him, sending him to the best schools. When his worn-out clothes made him a laughingstock, I pitied him and showered him with designer labels. And what did he do? He used what I gave him to chase after a gold-digging campus belle. To keep up appearances, he blew through money like it grew on trees. He even spread rumors that he was the real heir to the Roosevelts. To him, I was just an ATM. "Your family's loaded. It's not like you'll miss a few hundred grand. If you're gonna be stingy, maybe you should stop following me around," he said when his wallet ran dry. And like a fool, I believed that if I kept paying, someday, he'd love me back. After graduation, I funded his startup. The second it took off, he married the campus belle. He had the nerve to claim he earned everything through nothing but hard work. So, I crashed his wedding, and he buried a knife in my chest. "Only when you're dead, Eve Roosevelt. Only then will my pathetic past stay buried." When I opened my eyes again, I was face-to-face with a scowling Albert. "You can't scrape together a few hundred thousand dollars? It's Bianca's birthday. Are you trying to humiliate me?" I looked around the room and rolled my eyes. "Sure, I'll pay. But first? Kneel. You look pretty enough. Consider it charity, peasant."
