If I hadn't been alone. Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if he had come to see me earlier, when I was pregnant. I don't know if I would be happy, but at least it wouldn't be impossible for me to be happy again. In case it ever was.
“Marlon is a psychopath, Yuri. He knows how to pretend that he is a good person so well that it is terrifying. If Veronica bought it, which is the opposite of a gullible person... Imagine what he's capable of. If you ever meet him...
"You don't even have to ask me," she said, very serious. I'll use my bag against him.
Mark smiled softly.
“I would prefer that you change to the sidewalk and walk away.
"Well, that's how it will be." I have no desire to mix with that man.
Marc nodded gratefully. They were silent for a l

Marc stopped by the office to try to work while it was time to meet with the notary, and with Marlon, he added bitterly. It was impossible for her to concentrate with all the things on her mind, nor to successfully complete her tasks without the help of Nick as a secretary or Hugo as an assistant.Things didn't work out either the first or the second. I was trying to work without my right hand being right handed. It had been a stupid impulse to throw Hugo out. She should have at least told him to finish his work, so as not to leave anything undone, and then already hinted that he should take a vacation. The truth was that he did not want to do without him, even if he had behaved like a fool. After all, if she took those liberties it was partly because Marc put up with it from day one. Hugo was just being true to his personality, one that he liked when he interviewed her enough to put him ahead of several brighter candidates. He wondered if it would be late, and how long he wo

"What are you going to do with the money and the house in Jacksonville?"“I will rent the house; That way, if I ask myself for a vacation, I'll know what it means to live off the income. The money... Maybe I'll buy another apartment. Bigger one."One that fits you and... I don't know, Yuri Sandoval?"“She is tiny, she fits anywhere. And it's too soon."Don't tell me you don't want to, rascal."“I'm not saying I don't want to, but you have to let things settle. Not in case it turned out to be a passing whim. I can differentiate an arbitrary whim from... other things, infinitely more important. I just need time. As always. To organize my problems and not touch her or by chance.“What kind of problems?Marc was silent for a moment, looking at his brother. Wentworth should be coming down and as random as it might seem, I wanted to take advantage of that little space to say thank you. A lot had happened in a short s

The afternoon dragged on with Jesse and Wentworth, they insisted so much on him staying a while longer that he ended up letting go of his unfinished business. I could do it. He no longer answered to Moore except in cases where it was necessary for a single authority to take charge. In general they made decisions by consensus. This means that if Marc needed a more or less relaxed day to digest his father's death”or to use it as an excuse and have fun with his loved ones”he had a free hand. To tell the truth, Moore had always been very permissive with his absences because he knew that he did not miss unless it was a matter of life and death. His philosophy was very similar to Marc's. "If you do something, do it because you can afford it." And definitely, Marc could allow himself a moment of relaxation one day after the funeral, without Hugo and without Verónica.Although Jesse had plenty of charisma to distract him “and with Went he made an irresistible

Mark raised his head. He had just returned, with the paper he had asked for.“Well, I didn't always want to be a lawyer and uphold the law to the letter."Actually, and if I understood correctly, you've never wanted to be a lawyer."It's nice to be heard when you speak."You talk as if someone could ignore you when you speak.""Sometimes I would prefer it."“Not that you felt embarrassed for being the king of the class."Without a consort, it's not much fun to sit on the throne." It's always been nice to be listened to, don't get me wrong, but it sucked not having anyone I was interested in listening to.He gestured at the paper.“Cut a square, about this size. You have always wanted to be a lawyer, right?“Of course not. I wanted to be a princess, a dancer, a singer, a Hollywood actress... Then I wanted to be a nurse, a teacher, a veterinarian; more affordable things. I dedicate myself to

Marc was silent. He had her sitting on him. He wasn't doing anything, just looking at her and holding her, while he rubbed himself for her attention. Sweats and painful burning broke out. What she did do was take advantage of the V”neckline of the dress, provocative and simple, to free her breasts. Meeting them again cost him nothing more than wrinkling the ends. Two nipples pointed at him, round and small, conspicuous on skin that was ivory. He wished he didn't have his pants on.He brought his lips close to one of the mounds. His tongue slid across the relief, conforming to its shape. His teeth captured the roughness of the pebble.“What about you? Have you thought about women?“Yes... From time to time I was about to try it with one. It caught my attention. She was pretty... And very smart. He approached me one night, on my sister's birthday...She plunged her hand into her blond hair.“Ah, Marc, I like it when you bite m

Yuri didn't want to go to work. His fever and intense kidney pain had returned, and after so many absences from work he had become (wrong) accustomed to the lack of commitment to schedules. But he couldn't go on like this, slipping away from his responsibilities and justifying them by saying he wasn't feeling well. She was also feeling so”so the night before and that didn't stop her from having sex on the couch. Falling in love did not mean forgetting the mottos that he had championed all his life, and one of them was: "if you are sick for one thing, you are sick for the other." It was an excellent yardstick when making decisions. But this morning in question, she didn't get out of bed just because at eight she had to meet with Caleb, with whom she had already decided to reconcile before even fighting over "what they had to do": she did it in part because Marc had turned to him again. put the watch down and, knowing how important it was to him, he would feel naked if he didn't

“I'm serious. If I were making it up, I wouldn't be a lawyer, I'd be a Hollywood screenwriter,” Hugo insisted. He does not love you. It doesn't matter how it may have seemed. There are people who pretend so well to have feelings for you that in the end even they believe it. But it doesn't last long. They are real psychopaths."Hugo," exclaimed Verónica coldly, appearing under the doorjamb. What are you doing?"What you should have done, if you had any shame." Is it that you think it is lawful to deceive someone to win a lawsuit?Aikó took her eyes off the ground and looked at the female figure that tensed at times. Her eyes were moist, more from shock than from sadness, because she refused to believe such nonsense. Veronica watched her in turn with a mixture of panic and care, as if depending on her reaction she was going to choose one way out or another. The theater would have been of no use to him because Yuri saw it in his f

She remembered when the night before, Marc had encouraged her to ride him. He remembered when he asked her to get on all fours, and asked her permission to try something different and suggestive in the kitchen. Yuri would have sworn that all of these had been manifestations of their love. From the first night he had the impression that what was between them was special. He innovated because he was eager to fulfill all his sexual desires and he was a man with large appetites, and also because he wanted to do everything with her. Because he was in love and needed to show her his world. That was also why she had told him about him. But what if it hadn't been for that? What if he did it because he was fully aware that if he didn't give her a part of him, she would never give in, and therefore could not score another victory?Everything fit. The only big problem was that Yuri categorically refused to violate Marc's feelings. Her little statements, her caresses... It wasn't just th

"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. "I'll never understand how you can refer to her and your relationship in those terms and expe

“ 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. "Seriously, I love you. I am in love with what we do. From playing I Spy after we cum, from philosophizing with porn, from chasing ice cream carts, from recreating movie dialogues. I miss your sucky kisses, your skirts cut with scissors and that y

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
