"Should I believe there is something beyond?" Because I understand that he despises his ex's lawyer, a woman who has given him a lot of trouble... but it's always strange that they tell you to talk as little as possible, not with the other party, but with his defender.
I have a reputation. Just like you and everyone else... only mine is tailor”made for guys like Campbell to fear me. He hadn't lied at all; in fact, he was being honest... He just left out some parts. Thank heavens there are individual opinions. You have one on me, just like you have one on Campbell.
“Clear. I don't think either of you are bad.
Marc's eyes narrowed, but otherwise it wasn't apparent that the response had been insulting.
"Do you think it's good?" Is that your opinion about him?

"After before"? Did this woman really think she was satisfied with a few kisses? He must have seen very little of the world. Yuri left the room and he did so a few seconds later, when he had already entered the title of the novel and the name of the writer. Kathleen Priest. It sounded good. The front and back covers were black, with a very elegant drawing of a cross”legged blonde woman. The yoke of pleasure . It sounded erotic. He followed Yuri, who was waiting for him leaning against the wall “as if she was going to get lost. They crossed the corridor in silence. Marc meditated on what he had said. Perhaps she suspected something, or perhaps it was her way of moving him, admitting to being weak in the face of her feelings for him... It still shocked him that a woman like her would confess her flaws without her voice shaking. That is to say... Yes, he trembled. But he did not seem to hesitate between saying it or not saying it. And on the other hand,

Yuri hit the play button for the fifth time in a row. Six times Pablo Alborán had already been singing the same song, and she had been pining for almost twenty minutes for the ex”boyfriend she didn't have. Listening to the singer made her want to have had a failed relationship, to fall in love again, to never fall into the clutches of love, to dedicate it to someone and never to admit that she cried like a child when she heard him sing. A little late for that last one; On the tour she did in Spain, she saw him live with Otto and Mio, and it was no longer a secret that the man made her sensitive.She pushed the iron to one side and stared at the remains of the pie. Then he looked at the clock. Four hours had passed since Marc had left. In that time, Yuri had hosted Caleb's friends' gathering, laughed at his jokes, gracefully accepted his flirtations, called her mother on the phone”no answer”and comforted Mio.It had taken her sister fifteen minu

“Who is it? Natsumi asked. Her mother had already left, and she was dressing in front of Yuri without any shame. She also envied that about her sister, that she wasn't embarrassed to be naked in front of someone.“It's Marc. He's sick too. My goodness, this is all my fault... I should have bought a ready”made cake.From: Yuri SandovalTo: Marc Ambani Subject: Coming Friday Are you accompanied at least?From: Marc AmbaniTo: Yuri SandovalSubject: Coming Friday Unfortunately not."He's alone," he said to Mio, making a mortified face.“Poor. Could you drop by and check on her before you go with Cal. You guys are friends, right?Uh... Yeah, right? Supposedly they were, until he'd kissed her and then the boundaries of what friends did became somewhat blurred.<

She came looking into his eyes, his fingers still ensconced in her, absorbed by the intermittent spasms of her inner muscles. His entire body shuddered, robbing him of his balance, his breath, and the strength to say that this was not the right thing to do. It was. There was nothing more correct than meeting his lips in a passionate kiss.The devil's game completed its second step. Yuri felt empty and needy as she took her hand out of her panties. The excitement hadn't left her. He was making as much noise as he could to throw her back into his arms. This turned to pure mortification at seeing him licking his wet fingers shamelessly."Marc," she gasped. W”what...? Y”you...He watched with a clenched stomach as she licked her lips and held her against his body.“Stay with me tonight. I'm not going to stand one more night dreaming of something that isn't mine yet."I can't…" she stammered, still in shock and dizzy. I

Although a part of him wanted to investigate, to use that advantage to uncover some dirt on Yuri”surely Hugo would know something, or his cousin would have told him secrets”he couldn't find the voice to ask. Perhaps because he couldn't get the image of the woman out of his head confessing, with devastating modesty and docility, that he was "her dreams come true." No, not only that. It was all her dreams come true. Not one, not two. all .It wasn't the first time someone had put a weight like that on their shoulders. Since he was a child, he was used to having his elders expect great things from him. But Marc didn't have time to worry about that. First, because the ones who wanted him to meet their expectations were family members he hated and whom it would be better for him to disappoint. And second, because, in effect, he was too busy living three lives as a single man to give importance to the wishes of others.However, when Yuri had spo

“That is that you see me with good eyes because I am the one who pays you, but I doubt that he feels that need to reaffirm my virtues. He already makes money on his own and we don't even work in the same field. It is evident that he thinks he is far superior. In all aspects.Just because you believe it doesn't mean it is.Yuri waved her hand.“That's the least of it... You already know that I'm not in favor of superiority or inferiority. We are all worth the same, and then we already depend on the importance that others give us. He shrugged. In the end, it doesn't matter. The meeting is in half an hour and I have to get ready. Do you know where Caleb is?“Meeting with Jesse Ambani in the office. If Kara hasn't misinformed me, they're finalizing the contract, though there's not much to do. Mr. Ambani enters as a minority partner due to his experience and clients.“I know, I already gave my thumbs up the other day when Caleb f

"I can advise Campbell not to leave her job until it is known whether or not Carol's accusations are true, just as I can counter the infidelities and family support with your own failings as your client's mother figure." Anything you can do, I can do better... and you know that very well. If you were clear on victory, you wouldn't be so worried about the court reaching for a divorce.Marc took a breath and took a quick look at the clock."Allow me to correct you, sweetie." Both We know that victory, for the moment, has none. Campbell isn't stupid and neither is Carol, just like we all have an idea of what's out there. If they don't give in, it's because they both believe they can win, ergo, there's a hidden test that maybe they've taught us or maybe not, but that can destroy the other. Being in more or less equal conditions, in the end everything will depend on who has the most agile mind, or who dares to take a risk.“You are very good a

"So a flatterer." And what else am I?Yuri looked at him as if she needed him to describe it.He wanted to be struck by lightning right there.He was dressed in his usual suit, impeccable from head to toe. She managed to look brand”new at each of her appearances, and no one looked better in new clothes. It didn't help that he was also the kind of man who would be handsome even covered in spit."I don't know if I want to know," she answered, tired.She turned and left him there, more infatuated with herself than with him. If he was a little more Mio, a little more Otto, he would have gotten over his comment in five minutes and could be nice now, or at least biting. Well no. It had to show that it hurt, when it didn't make much sense. Maybe he had a bad day, or was that unpleasant if it suited him. In either case, an apology would suffice. Or not. That would contradict what you clarified by active and passive. He was not going to take care of s

"Never thank me because I can always do better." And I'll always do better if you let me. Are you going to leave me? Lea smiled without wanting or being able to remedy her weakness. “In peace? Never. "That was what I wanted to hear." "What else could I tell you?" My life is much more beautiful when you are in it. What movie is that line from? Or is it from an Elton John song? “The second. "I think it's a good idea to move on to song choruses, because I wouldn't know how to respond to that if it wasn't with a Frankie Vallie…" She cupped her hands into a horn and yelled. I love you baby, and if it's quite all right, I need you baaaaaaby, to warm the lonely nights…! Lea silenced him by covering his mouth and giving him an elbow with the fit of laughter lurking. He defended himself by curling up in the seat, looking at her with merry eyes. His amused childish smile made her heart race. "I love you baby," she crooned

Wentworth got up and set the potatoes aside. The only reason he'd do that was because he'd run out of them, so Jesse didn't try to dig into the bottom of the bag. "Do you want me to help you be spontaneous?" he repeated with special sarcasm. You're the one who always picks me up with women, Jesse, you don't need anyone to convince a woman to be with you. And less three guys who have cost much more than you. That one over there took twenty years, and they'll end up leaving your brother, so… I'm going for the humus. "You're going to be a seal," Marc insisted, his eyes following him. And why is he going to leave me? I got married so that doesn't happen. "Have you heard of divorce?" asked Wentworth wryly. “Yes, and I've also heard that I'm a very bastard lawyer. You will have no way to run from me if I defend myself in court. Moore shook her head.

“ Merde. Sorry. She took off her belt and looked at him very seriously. Take advantage of the traffic light and let's change the site. I don't like to see you suffer. Jesse wanted to retort, but she was so sure of what she was up to that he had to give in. She was driving fine. So much so that he was not scared the only time he took him home, and not only because it was a short journey, but because he knew how to distract him and comply with all road safety regulations. So she walked around the car to switch places, taking the liberty of patting him on the ass as she passed. “Better? she asked, once she had buckled on the pilot's seatbelt. Jesse smiled and showed the hand he'd spanked her with. "Very much, don't you see the pixie dust?" She laughed. "Am I officially Tinker Bell?" "Only until you get tired of Peter Pan." "I doubt I'll get tired. It was my favorite cartoon movie. or so it says my father. S

"Check it out with your own eyes." Jesse glared at her and stepped over the threshold without a second thought. She walked through the living room with her body tense, past the kitchen with a hurried step, and ended up heading to the bedroom. Before that, his attention was caught by the light on in the bathroom, the echo of a song by Huecco and a female voice humming it under his breath. Jesse stopped in front of the ajar door, her heart beating so fast. He took a deep breath and released the air He repeated it once. Other. And another… “That I've cut his hair, I haven't stuck the scissors in his trachea! Shan snapped from behind him. Jesse turned to glare at her resentfully. "And what do you think is worse?" She didn't wait for him to answer and pushed the door very slowly, covering her eyes with her hands. Slowly, as if she were in a horror movie and wasn't quite sure if she wanted to continue watching it, she spread her fing

You even look your dog in the eye and you know what he misses because it is only a reflection of what you need: to be happy. And I'm always happy “he pointed out, extending his arms”, but you duplicate that illusion in such a way that you make me look like a sad man when I'm not with you. "I am aware of my shortcomings because I have seen them thanks to you," he continued. He stuck out his fingers to enumerate. Whim should not be the engine of movement, joking with everything is not always correct, decisions must be made calibrating the pros and cons, I have to be humble from time to time and, above all: I must accept the truth when I have it in front of me , especially when the truth loves me and I love her.

Jesse frowned. “What are you talking about? “Marc and I like to gamble. He said you'd never get over Victoria and I said you'd end up falling for another woman with the right little push. I was a couple of months late thinking about how to get together without it being noticed until the light went out on the web. Jesse's eyes narrowed. "Are you telling me that you gave me that brutal row knowing that I fell into your trap, when on top of that, surely, you made money? “Man, I had to give consistency to my alibi. If I didn't get angry you might be suspicious. Or not, he mused, you're not as smart as you think, but I needed to entertain myself somehow. “As for the money, he hasn't paid me yet. You have to start dating her to get paid. We have a second bet, which is that if you marry her, Marc will be paying me a monthly salary from my retirement until they bury me. "Don't fuck with me," he huffed, in shock.

And he started walking rubbing his temple, which he felt was on the verge of sudden death. It always happened to him. He stopped before turning the corner to go by the photocopier, as if he had just remembered something important, and turned to face Marc, who was leaning against the wall, watching him. “I'm sorry about what I said to you on the phone,” Jesse added aloud. "Didn't you hear me?" You can't take someone seriously when they're angry,” he repeated, shrugging. And it's the least I deserve after fucking your shoulder. "I'll take off the bandage in a few days." Does that mean I have forty”eight hours to insult you and that it's justified? "I'll be all ears if you want to bash my ego." “Perfect. Marc half smiled. Then they went on their way without giving much importance to the matter. He passed the copy room. "…they called me, and I cheered up because I like you," she heard from outside. “Oscar, look, you

They think we're back. "I considered it, I admit it." “The fact that? "Yes, I would be interested in winning you back." It's been years thinking that I would die for you. And I would. But what you tell me about the hostile uterus… I value my carrot too much to risk it. He received a blow to the shoulder. Ouch, right on the war wound. Seriously now... Do you think I look at you like I'm in love? Everyone says so. “I know how to differentiate your eyes of love from your eyes of a joker asshole, and the look of the former is no longer for me. “Well, girl, that's life. You traded me for a baby, now you put up with it. "I traded you for nothing." “No, you'll see that you're going to have a baby. You only needed my blessings: I bless you. Now go get your ass poked.

Kyoto leaned back at the end of the corridor. Jesse entered the copier room to hide from the onlookers and stood in front of her. He was so pissed off he could only be sad, and it didn't help that Lea conveyed something similar. "You don't have to go," he murmured, searching her eyes. If I have been abusing your trust and I have not even given you proper work, I am very sorry, but... She silenced him only by lifting her chin. "That's not what I want you to apologize for. Jesse shifted from one leg to the other and rested her hand on the copier, not knowing what to say. “I can't apologize for wanting to spend time with someone I care about. I can apologize for not realizing that I was displacing you. "Leave it, it doesn't matter." There is nothing more to say, we have already discussed everything a while ago. "Is that what you thought of as talking?" He shook his head. You haven't even let me explain myself well, and what I was
