A little scare
Steve is overly anxious and worried, since he arrived at the hospital in the ambulance with his father, he hasn't heard from him and his condition. In his head he repeats the damn argument over and over again while feeling guilty about whatever happened to his father who doesn't have a diagnosis but he knew that Hugh's heart was not in the best condition, the years had passed and his father was no longer a strong oak. Evidently the words and tone he used upset his old man too much. "If something happens to my father because of me, I'm never going to forgive myself," he repeated to himself over and over in his head. For the umpteenth time, Steve called his brother only to get the same result, he didn't answer the call. How could he be so carefree? Sometimes he felt jealous of his brother, he had never been given the same responsibilities, as he was the youngest he was always allowed more freedoms, while Steve at twenty-one years old was already CEO of the family company, Gustavo at t
An irresistible proposal
Chelsea and Gus stand there for a long time, in the middle of the main hall, doing absolutely nothing, while hugging each other with all the strength in the world. She believed that hugs were the best remedy for all ills, hugs and tea, there was something simply magical about that perfect combination. After a while, Gus took her by the shoulders and pulled her away from him so he could look her in the eye and said:"Let's see, now that we're both calmer, tell me, how did it all happen and why?" “The truth is, I don't know, I have no idea, I mean, not for sure, Steve's father told me that he wasn't being professional and that he couldn't allow that in the company, I think that somehow he found out about Steve and I, although I don't know how, no one ever caught us in anything strange; anyway, it's just a guess of mine, the fact is, I'm indeed unemployed with my mother's operation knocking on my door." She paused a little when she realized that her friend's cheeks were also wet "Wait
Líes?!
Larry called his brother full of anguish, he couldn't believe that his father had had a heart attack, with that was the opportunity for him to tell Hugh his truth. He wouldn't be to blame for his father's death, that's not it. Meanwhile, Steve drives back to his house, although Chelsea does not leave his mind, nor could he leave his father alone and much less the company, all the responsibility fell on his back again.Steve helped his father out of the car, Larry waited worriedly in the middle of the main hall. He reached out to help him."Dad! He hugged him. “Are you okay?”"For now, yes, son.” He leaned on his shoulder, and Larry led him to his room.Steve felt so guilty about what had happened that he barely said goodbye to go back to the office. Minutes later, he arrived at the company, some employees showing interest in Hugh's health, among them German, the security guard."Mr. Bullock, how is your father?" He asked worriedly "He's home now, he had a pre-heart attack. Fo
A new day!
Chelsea spent the rest of the night thinking about how much her life had changed in such a short time. She never imagined that she would be fired from the job she had been so excited to get, much less that another opportunity as good as the one she had lost would appear. The other times Fred had suggested that she work at his company she never really considered, at least not in a serious way, she worked alongside the man she loved without knowing that it would be the cause of her dismissal. Another thing she kept thinking about that night was that Hugh Bullock had suggested to her that something was up to the competition and, if he found out that he would start working with them in just a few hours, he would confirm those suspicions; But that shouldn't matter to her. She did her job impeccably, she always did more than what was asked of her, they had only had one complaint from her on that occasion when one of the investors said that he was poorly attended, but she had not spoken
Will you marry me?
After all the things Steve had said to her, after the way he had treated her, or rather, mistreated her, Larissa didn't intend to sit idly by. She was aware that Steve was looking for any excuse to end the relationship, so going against him, reproaching him or answering him would be the end for her. She had to be very careful with her movements and that's exactly what she was doing, despite the pent-up rage she had, she knew how to control it and act as if nothing had happened. When she was absolutely sure that there was no sign of Steve in the whole area, she took her cell phone out of her bag and dialed the number of the only person who would be willing to comfort her at any time and no matter the circumstances."What good have I done to the world that the universe will respond to me with this pleasant surprise?" The male voice on the other end of the phone said."How exaggerated you are, Mick," she replied, smiling. "Tell me, are you very busy today?""I'm never busy for you
Yes, I do!
After that unexpected proposal, Chelsea spent the whole night thinking without stopping thinking, full of anguish and doubts. It was as if the universe had insisted on putting her to the test in those weeks, two irresistible proposals on Fred's part that put her in check in the face of her own reality. She had already agreed to work with him because of the same need she had to resolve her situation quickly. Now that second extremely tempting offer kept her awake, really marrying Fred, it was every woman's dream come true, he was handsome, wealthy and sincere."What else do you need, Chelsea?" She confronted herself. Again she and her feelings took a back seat, she had to do it so that she could have the money and that her mother would recover her health or at least that her years of life would be extended a little after that terrible disease attacked her. Susane was a strong woman, or seemed to be, working from dawn to dusk to give Chelsea everything she needed. When Victoria's m
She has to be operated!
Chelsea hurried out of the room to her mother's bedroom, Susane was pale and showed tension in her face, the pain seemed to have her in shock."Vicky, please go get Fred," she ordered to the girl, who hurried to the room.Fred was coming out of the bathroom, excited and totally naked for his meeting with his wife, when Vicky approached the door and stumbled upon her brother-in-law's perfect anatomy. "Vicky!” She covered her face and he tried to cover her sex with his hands. "Excuse me Fred, my aunt isn't well, Chelsea asked me to call you.”“I´m on my way” She didn't move from there, instead she stayed in the doorway, while Fred took his silk pajamas and dressed in front of her. They both went to the next room, Susane still deprived of pain, while Chelsea searched eagerly inside her mother's things, for the pills of her treatment."Let me carry her," Fred said, he walked over and managed to lift her easily in his arms. "Take the car keys my love, I'll wait for you downstairs
A hunch come true
Since Chelsea had left his life, Steve had been thinking about her, he had not realized how strong his feelings for her were until that moment, he could see that it was not in vain that they said "You never know what you have until you lose it", in fact, it was the truest saying that existed on the face of the earth. He spent sleepless nights, meetings completely distracted, conversations absent imagining what his life would be like right now if he had had the courage to leave Larissa and make his relationship with Chelsea official, he would definitely be happy now and not miserable as he was being. Lately, he wasn't able to look Larissa in the eye, he knew that she had been to blame for Chelsea's dismissal and that irritated him more and more, he disowned her too much and was no longer interested in hiding it; He hadn't touched her for several days, he hadn't been with her, he had no nice words, no affectionate gestures, nothing, he simply ignored her since their last argument an
