Six months later.Rubén came running to the hospital, searching the corridors for Myriam, until he found her hugging Tony.“What happened?” he questioned. “I came as soon as you called me”"He has a high fever again," she whispered weakly.Ruben inhaled deeply.“At this age it's normal, it must be an infection”Myriam shook her head, clinging to her son's small body."I take good care of him," she said as she cooed to him. "Look at these marks" she pointed and lifted the boy's shirt.Rubén's lips trembled when he saw several bruises on the little boy's skin, his heart sank."Let's wait for a doctor to check him out," he recommended, trying to sound steady.Immediately they took Myriam and the baby to the pediatric emergency room, they treated him, and the specialist recommended hospitalizing the child."Is something wrong?" Myriam questioned trembling."We need to do several studies, don't worry," said the doctor.The young mother did not separate from her son for a single moment, she

Three months later.Large dark circles framed Myriam's eyes, the woman was in a hospital bed clinging to Tony's body, the little boy had had a serious infection and the doctors were assessing his condition.The boy wouldn't stop crying, Myriam's heart was breaking, those months had been a struggle, and when it seemed that Tony was getting better, he would get sick again.A nurse asked her to leave, she needed to take the child to perform a new study. Myriam kissed Tony's forehead and left.Rubén was waiting for her outside, she hugged him, and let out all the tears she was holding back."I don't want my son to die," she stammered, "I see it very badly."Rubén tried to comfort her, encourage her, but it was impossible, several minutes passed, and Myriam was called to the office of the oncology pediatrician, whom she knew very well.“Doctor Gregor, how is my son?” She questioned trembling, she noticed that the specialist's face was full of seriousness.The doctor snorted.“Tony, he urge

The next day, Elsa entered Anthony's room. Myriam had fallen asleep, next to her son."Wake up," she whispered softly so as not to wake the boy.Myriam blinked, and opened her eyes slowly, she sat up suddenly, thinking that something had happened to her son, but then her heart returned to calm when she saw him by her side.“What happens?” She inquired, rubbing his eyes.“The donor is a match for Anthony, he has the same DNA, we found the father of your child.Tears welled up in Myriam's eyes."Thank God," she said, "but… She's going to donate her bone marrow," she questioned with a trembling voice.“Apparently we chose well, he is a healthy man, and he is willing to save Tony's life, the procedure will be performed this afternoon.“Really?” She questioned, and her eyes lit up, "that man is an angel," she said, and hugged Elsa.“We must prepare everything for the procedure, go home, take a shower, eat something and come back, I'll stay with Anthony.Myriam kissed her son's cheek, and s

The next morning Gerald was holding an important meeting at home, he was working from there, not wanting anyone to find out that he underwent a medical procedure."Mr. Lennox, good morning, I came as soon as you called me," said a burly middle-aged man dressed in black."Thanks for coming," Gerald explained to the investigator and with a gesture of his hand invited him to take a seat, "I need to know everything about a person's life," he said and gave him Myriam's information.The investigator noted in his diary.“In a week you will have the data.Gerald shook his head."You have twenty-four hours to give me the information I need," he ordered.“That's impossible Mr. Lennox, if you require accurate data it takes more time."You have forty-eight hours, or I'll find someone more competent," he stated seriously.The agent pursed his lips, nodded."You'll have the information," he asserted, said goodbye and left the house.Gerald took a deep breath, he wanted to know how Anthony was, but

Myriam's lips parted in a big O, and her heart began to pound."Are you kidding me?" she inquired, because her bosses, although they were good, were also characterized by being very stingy.The woman on the other end of the line laughed."I understand that this is new for you, but with the new administration things are going to change," she explained, "we hope for Anthony's speedy recovery, and your return to the shipping company."Myriam's lips trembled with shock, and a great torrent of tears fell from her eyes, it was as if life was giving her and Tony a second chance."Thank you so much, you have no idea what that means to me," she said in a shaky voice, "I hope to be at the shipping company soon, but if you need, anything feels free to call me, and I'll see how I get there," she explained.“Don't worry, we just need you to come to the social work office, sign some documents, so that we can take care of your son's treatment."Thank you very much," she reiterated and hung up the ca

The strong aroma of alcohol woke Myriam up, she blinked and the first thing she saw was blue eyes similar to Anthony's, then she remembered what had happened."Are you feeling better, Miss Bennett?" asked the head of human resources.She nodded and then looked at Gerald confused, she didn't know for sure who he really was, and what he was doing there, that couldn't be a coincidence. Myriam shuddered and knew, the note she sent him was clear, and knowing him, he wasn't going to sit idly by.«What if he wants to take Tony away from me?» She thought and felt a shiver run down her spine."I think the lady needs oxygen," Gerald stated, then the head of human resources left the office, leaving them alone."So now you're trying to clear your conscience," Myriam said without hesitation. "How long will your charity work last? Or are you going to humiliate me again by saying goodbye in front of everyone?" she inquired and faced him fearlessly.Gerald clenched his teeth, he understood her anger,

"I don't know if they told you that one of the ships was damaged and that it would take three weeks to repair it," she reported. "That's what you're the manager for, look for solutions, don't call me, so I can give you the answers," he snorted. "I know very well what to do," she refuted, "I was just calling you to let you know that for the time being I will ask you to rent another ship," she said annoyed, "that expense is not included in the budget, that's why I require your authorization," she muttered, snorting. “Do what you think is convenient!” He exclaimed, raising his voice. “Don't raise your voice at me Gerald Lennox, I'm not to blame for your bad mood, go and find someone to take it out on, not me. "Myriam!" he yelled loudly. She hung up the call and left him speechless. Lennox's assistant dropped her pencils in shock, since no one in the company was ever capable of questioning him, let alone leaving him with the word in his mouth. “What do you want?” He growled. "They

"You said nothing had happened between you and that woman. You lied?" he questioned.Gerald rolled his eyes and snorted."I didn't lie, between her and me, nothing happened that night, things happened later," he lied.Kevin watched him intently.“But what a strange relationship, I remember that you threw the severance money in his face, and now it turns out that they are getting married.” He shook his head, “now I repeat what I've always thought about you, you're crazy.” He laughed.Gerald looked from that place at his fiancée, in the midst of several journalists, his skin crawled completely."I have to go with Myriam," he commented, striding closer."We're not going to comment on our romance," he heard her say, "this meeting was held to celebrate the purchase of Shipmovier," she said, "so if you guys want to talk about the company, I'll be happy to answer, if you ask something about my private life, I will refuse to answer." She smiled and looked at Gerald.Lennox released a sigh."

Gerald arrived home, thoughtfully took off his tie and jacket, took Tony's photograph in his hands, and looked at him tenderly."I'm not going to let anyone hurt you, much less let that bastard Raymond Wilson take my place," he said, "we're going to be together, and I'm going to teach you so many things." He blinked and his voice cracked. “I will not be the same as my father,” he assured.Then he looked at the photo of Myriam, and snorted, there he understood that this woman would have to go beyond the walls of her intimacy, that she would have to narrate part of her life, so that the romance would sound like reality."I hope you don't bother me, Myriam Bennett, you're an expert at that," she emphasized, then picked up her iPad and began typing her terms. "There will be no intimacy," was the first thing he wrote down. “You will not make a fool of me in front of my employees”, he wrote: “You will not give me orders either, you will have to obey my rules”, was the third thing he wrote,
