"You haven't answered me," he insists in my ear as he hugs me tightly.I smile and, as I lay my head on his chest, I hear his back slam hard against the back of the bed, "Are you okay?" I ask between laughs."Of course, don’t worry about it," he replies between laughs. I lean in to see those blue eyes, that beautiful smile and feel his pecs. There is no doubt that Lucas is handsome, "you haven't answered me; are you moving in with me?" he insists, interrupting my thoughts."Baby, you know I'd love to do it," I try to explain, but when his fingers begin to caress my abdomen, I start to lose my mind."And what's stopping you, bella?" he asks.I don't know if Lucas knows it, but every time he calls me bella with that Italian accent, everything inside me turns upside down; it's so sexy."Our plan," I reply in a confident tone.His lips are moving dangerously close to my neck, and I know he's trying to convince me,

Next dayAfter taking a shower, I leave the bathroom to get ready and go to work. However, I find my ex-husband, now my boyfriend and possibly a model, lying on the bed practically naked. Lucas has his arms crossed under his head, and a light sheet covers his manhood.Concentrate, Sienna, remember that you must go to work, I repeat to myself over and over again while his gaze wanders over me."Good morning, Bella, why didn't you wake me up to shower with you?" he says suggestively. I swear it is very complicated not to get distracted by him.I go to the foot of the bed and stand firm, "if I do, rest assured that I'll be late for work. You know better than anyone that I can't lose it. It's our last chance to discover Raúl's secrets," I explain; although I die to kiss him and lose myself again in his arms

One more day, I must enter this building where I must pretend to behave as spies do on their missions. I politely greet those who dare to say something to me, even if it's just a simple 'good morning,' and I walk towards the elevator. The doors are about to close when a male hand interferes and makes them open again, "Good morning," a tall, young man with blond hair and green eyes greets me. Notably, he resembles a company executive due to his elegant and good-looking demeanor. He presses the same button on the floor I'm headed to; He looks at me."Good morning," I respond politely."Alejandro Sandoval," he tells me, offering me his hand. I am shocked.It just can't be..."Sienna Damianni," I reply as I shake hands with him. I don't know what to say to him. I don't dare to ask him anything."Are you my father's executive assistant?" he asks me, and all my doubts dissipate.I shake my head, "I didn't know that Mr. Sandoval had a son," I say with a small voice."There are three of us. M

I have tried to find out by all the means at my disposal the name of Raúl's deceased wife, but I still can't find it. Between lunch with Thai businessmen and the number of messages I've received from my boss, I haven't been able to do as much research as I'd like. In addition, they have asked me to collaborate on the company's anniversary, which is in a week.I turn off the computer, organize the papers on my desk, and find my bag to go home. Today's dinner will be interesting. Lucas and I will tell my father that we are together again; it makes me nervous to think about it.So, I leave my office to go to the elevator when I bump into Alejandro unexpectedly. "I'm sorry," I say and take two steps back. "Did I hurt you?" I ask, embarrassed; I didn't even realize he was there."I'm fine. I was going to see you," Alejandro tells me with a huge smile tattooed on his face."See me? Have I forgotten to do something?" I ask, pretending I care about my work, which is practically a lie."No, yo

I can feel my nerves creeping up on me at the sound of the doorbell. Tell my father that Lucas and I are back in a relationship after what happened between us. Also, we don't know how he will react to the news. Will he be suspicious of what is happening now?"Don't worry, my love," Lucas whispers in my ear and places a tender kiss on the corner of my lips. Then he goes to the door and goes to the door and opens it to greet my father with enthusiasm.I can't help but think that I recently hated Lucas, and now I can't live without him."Mauricio, come in!" Lucas exclaims, and my father enters the house.He looks around, smiles, and then his gaze meets mine "daughter? But what are you doing here?" he asks, confused.I take a breath and walk towards him "hello, Dad," I say, smiling, and I greet him with a hug."I don't understand," he says in confusion when we let go.Lucas approaches me and takes me by the waist. "Mauricio, we have invited you to dinner to tell you that your daughter an

After three hours of dinner and after-meal, Lucas finally closes the house door when my father leaves. He looks at me "we didn't do too bad," he comments, making me laugh."Not at all, you've made wedding plans and everything," I complain, crossing my arms as I lean my back against the pillar behind me.Lucas walks towards me as if I were his prey and smiles "and that bothers you?" he asks humorously.I immediately deny, "no, but I thought my father would never forgive you for what happened. The day I tried to kill me," I explain when his arms surround my waist and bring me close to him."Your father and I have talked a lot about that after I returned here to Miami." I couldn't tell him all the details, but if I confessed that I was wrong about you and was entirely sorry for it. When I allowed myself to get to know him better, I realized how much you mean to him and how much he cares that you are happy. He also got to know me better. Somehow, I have made him understand that you have b

Next dayI have spent the day working on the report that will be delivered to each board member. As I prepare them, I write down the names in the notes on my cell phone:-Leonardo Sanabria-Marta Indigo-Saul Villanueva-Salomé Ventura-Diego ZambranoRaúl's three children are also part of the board of directors, but I already know their names. I need now to investigate the other names and their relationship to Raúl and his illicit business dealings. Suddenly, a knock on the door startles me, and I put the cell phone in my bag quickly, "Come in," I exclaim."Good afternoon," says Alejandro once he opens my office door. "Have you finished your day?" he asks, leaning against the door frame and crossing his arms as he looks at me closely."Yes, I'm almost done," I explain and continue with my task without looking at him. "I thought you haven't come today, I didn't see you," I comment, trying to obtain information."Please, call me by my name, Alejandro," he proposes entering my office. H

Moments later, we arrive at the Valet Parking area of this restaurant I know so well. While Alejandro helps me get out of the luxurious car, my legs and hands shake due to the nerves I feel. I pray that Matías, the manager of this place, is not here today or at least not call me by my father's last name. My whole plan will fall, and I will be completely exposed to Alejandro if he does."I hope you like the place," Alejandro tells me when I finish getting out of the car, and lets go of my hand.I smile at him pretending to be kind. «If only he knew it is one of my favorite places.»"It looks great," I finally answer.We walked towards the entrance of this modern restaurant. Next, we see the facade worked entirely with black concrete materials and wooden details. Arriving at the door, a young man with reddish hair opens it for us. The interior of the place is stunning. The floor is rustic concrete in its original tone but with a particular shine due to its treatment. The tables are bea

Listening to them talk about life as if they were friends from many years ago has me confused, Has Lucas been cheating on me all this time? I question myself, What if his supposed repentance is just another hoax? What if he is using me again? I can't take it anymore. I feel like my head will explode with so many doubts that I have right now."Excuse me, I have to take this call," Alejandro tells us when his cell phone rings."It's OK," I say and take my glass from the table to sip wine. "What the fuck is all this, Lucas?" I ask, full of anger, when I notice that Alejandro has gone far enough.He stares at me and leans towards me "is that son of a bitch Raul Sandoval's son?" He asks me between his teeth, and I look at her, confused."But you know him... Don't pretend you don't," I refute, and I can't believe he's pretending to play this game."Of course, I know him, but like Alejandro Ferrara, a successful yacht salesman who met my sister at an industry party. They were dating for almo

I don't know very well if minutes or hours have passed; I see them approach the table once more. Alejandro's gaze is lost. I notice he is overwhelmed and also sad?"Sienna, I'm sorry," he says, "I hope you don't mind if Lucas takes you home, I'm not feeling well." He apologizes and leaves a two-hundred-dollar bill on the table."Don't worry. I'll see you tomorrow at the office," I say, but he doesn't answer; he nods and walks away.I watch him enter the restaurant and leave. When I see him far, I look at Lucas, who is now sitting in front of me. "What happened?" I ask, totally confused.I feel Lucas is just as confused as I am. He runs his fingers through his jet-black hair and tries to find the right words "it happens that Alejandro has learned that his son died with my sister in that accident. He's devastated and full of questions just like me, but I can't tell him that the prime suspect is his father; he would discover me," he explains to me calmly."What if that son wasn't his? H
