Chapter 16Peter MontereySeeing that man so close to Eliza, I can't hold back the anger I felt at that moment.I come out of my bubble when I feel Heloise kissing me and when she realizes that I don't reciprocate she makes an angry expression.- My love, is everything all right? - she asks, crossing her arms.- Yes," I answer monosyllabically. I didn't want to listen to Heloise right now.When she starts nagging me again, I end up losing my head and saying some things that I always felt comfortable saying.- Heloise, that's enough, I've had enough of you," I say.Heloise looks at me with her eyes watering, but I didn't feel sorry or pity for her. I know the play and I know how she can be. Then, tired of seeing Eliza close to that man, I approached those two, and from a distance, I could hear Heloise speaking.- Peter, come back here now. You're going to break up with me like this. You owe me an explanation.Since I was blinded by rage, I didn't even pay attention to her anymore. I a
Chapter 17Eliza CamposI wanted to understand why Peter was doing all this to me, but looking at his face, I could see that he looked agonized about something.After a few minutes on the road, the car is finally parked in a garage and there I could see several luxury cars that I had no idea which models they were.My mother is well off, however, she is not rich, but she has a certain wealth, but I don't care about this, something my mother complains about until today.Peter gets out of his car and opens the door so that I could get out.- Let's go,” he says impatiently.I take a frustrated breath at how he was talking to me.- Peter, explain to me now why you brought me to your apartment.Peter bites his lips, nervous about everything that was happening.- Please, Eliza. Let's go to my apartment, I swear I'll explain everything inside, it's a long story,” he says, breathing impatiently.- Peter, you are engaged, I won't enter your house like this. I've already said it and I'll say it
Chapter 18Peter MontereyWhen I revealed this to Eliza, of course, I was imagining that she would be appalled at what her father had managed to do with his daughters.- Eliza before you get like this, when we found out about this proposal, we thought it was absurd too, but then we understood your father's side, after all, he wanted to ensure his daughter's happiness so that they would have everything good and the best.- I get it," Eliza says almost static, still not believing what I had revealed.- Eliza - I call her attention.She blinks for a few moments to get her focus back.- Hello? - She asks.- Thomas is married," I reveal.Thomas probably hadn't told her he was married when they stayed at the club.Eliza is shocked and her expression is clear.- Thomas is married, I swear I didn't know because, on the day of the party, he was not wearing a ring," Eliza says with sadness in her voice.Probably feels guilty for being with Thomas, being that the big culprit of all this was him
Chapter 19Peter MontereyI don't even know how, but I managed to open the bedroom door and with Eliza still on my lap with her legs intertwined around my waist, I sat down on the bed. Making Eliza sit on my legs where I start to distribute light kisses on her shoulders, feeling her shivering all over and realizing this I give a light bite on that region, leaving a big hickey there.- This is so good, Peter," Eliza says in a broken voice, she probably couldn't take the hard-on she also felt for me, and I'm not being pushy, but when I looked at Eliza, that's what I could see in her eyes.Her gaze was just like mine, full of love, passion, and course, desire.I smiled sideways at what the redhead had said and to provoke her I decide to say.- Easy, angel. I want to make you beg for me.As I continue those pleasurable caresses, Eliza abruptly stops, leaving me confused.- Peter, this can't happen," she says, breathing heavily, looking almost breathless, her lips reddened and her red hair
Chapter 20Eliza CamposI wake up the next morning and realize that I am still in Peter's bed and then everything that happened the night before starts to go through my mind, it was real and not a dream. After seeing that Peter is still asleep, I try to get up carefully, since he has his arm wrapped around my waist.As I get out of bed, I end up waking Peter.- Eliza, is everything all right? - Peter asked, sitting up in bed, "Were you already leaving?Afraid of what his reaction would be, I decided to try to lie.- No, of course not," I answer, looking away.Peter looks at me suspiciously, arching one of his eyebrows as if he doesn't believe me.- Eliza, I know you're lying," Peter says, laughing in my face.I saw that there was no point in continuing to lie to Peter, I have learned to lie with life because of all the things that have happened to me, but when faced with a situation like this, it was as if I forgot everything I had learned.- Yes, I was lying, but, I've been here too
Chapter 01Eliza CamposMy addiction to drugs began after my parents separated when I was still a teenager. My mother had just discovered a betrayal that had lasted for a long time.Since the separation, my father had left home and to forget my problems, I started to use drugs.Everyone expected me to be the pride of my family, but, in fact, I only brought heartbreak and suffering to everyone around me, well, that's what I thought. Other things could have happened if I had told my mother from the beginning when it happened. I know that my mother feels sadness and pity for what I have become.I am the youngest daughter, I was known as the fantastic girl, that's only because I was a dreamer, who had dreams like any other and never gave up on anything, but since my addiction to drugs, everyone has turned away and even thought of helping me overcome all of this, people who called themselves my friends and would be with me come what may, and that's how you find out who are real. Your famil
Chapter 02Eliza CamposAfter leaving the meeting with Mathews, I immediately went to the house, but when I arrived at my destination, I could already see from a distance that my mother and my brother were already there. My mother was probably just here to snoop into my life, since she always did things like that.As I approached Lucas, I nudged him to make him realize that I had already arrived.— Lucas, what are you doing here? I told you that you don't have to do this anymore. I'm always cleaning the house whenever I can," I ask Lucas, looking annoyed.Lucas then turns toward me, smiling happily. We have always had a very close relationship, even closer than me and my mother. Without me expecting any reaction from him, he launches himself toward me and hugs me tightly.— Lizzie, my sister, how I've missed you," he says, calling me by a nickname he has used since we were children.— Lucas has already said that I shouldn't be called that anymore. You know I hate this nickname," I say
Chapter 03Pedro MonteiroI woke up with the awakening of my cell phone, the sun was already coming through the window, causing a strong luminosity against my eyes. Then I wake up and feel my eyes burning, I blink my eyes slowly for a few minutes until I get used to that brightness.I squinted slowly, but I didn't want to wake up Heloise, my fiancée, we ended up sleeping late last night after a senseless argument, because she believed I was hitting on one of the newest writers in the company, just for greeting the young woman with a kiss on the hand.Her face was resting on my shoulder, almost on my bicep, but I managed to move successfully without waking her. After successfully getting out of bed, I proceed to the bathroom where I perform my necessary personal hygiene and return to my room where I see that Heloise was still sleeping.As soon as I am in front of the closet, I look at my clothes for a few moments and choose to wear a black suit, dark pants and shoes in the same color.
