Pov. AlessandroI was waiting for Clau in the living room of her house, her mom kindly offered me to come in and have a drink."Thank you very much, Mrs. Rodriguez, that's enough with the glass of water," I smiled."Are you sure you don't want anything else?""No, thank you very much," I assured. "By the way, I hardly ever see pictures of Claudia when she was little.""You're right, many years ago I had a little accident in this house, through carelessness in the kitchen a fire broke out and many of our things burned. Fortunately,we escaped unharmed.""I understand. How fortunate that nothing happened to you," I said sincerely."I'm ready."As I saw my little Clau coming down the stairs, I almost choked on the water she was drinking. She looked incredibly beautiful."Are you okay, Alessandro?""Yes, don't worry, everything is in order," I cleared my throat uncomfortably."Mom, I'll be back later."'Yes, daughter. Alessandro, please take good care of my little girl.""Mom, I'm not a c
Pov. Alessandro"Anna, I'll tell you again: I don't want to talk to you, why are you calling me?""Alessandro dear, don't be angry, I'm only worried about you. Tell me, do you even know what your fiancée is doing right now?""She's working, I told you, I don't want you to bother her.""Apparently you have no idea, but your dear Claudia is happy as a clam with another man.""Liar. That's enough, I'm not in the mood for your silly games, goodbye Anna.""If you don't believe me, at this very moment I'm sending you the pictures to your cell phone. Nice evening dear, bye"I was fed up with Anna, I had to put a stop to it.I heard my cell phone ring and saw the pictures she sent me. I immediately felt my jealousy invade me, she sent me the address of the place and I immediately went to the cafeteria"."Franco, I need you to take care of some unfinished business I have, I need to go out.""Alessandro, did something bad happen?""Nothing, I'm leaving."I took my car and drove as fast as possi
"Honey, you have to be strong, you have to stand up for what is yours, you can't let the comments get to you, remember that you also have people who support you unconditionally.""I know, Eva.""Am I interrupting you girls," we suddenly heard. "Sis, you can be happy, you are the center of attention in all of Italy.""Pilar, now what do you want? You're just here to annoy Claudia," Eva said with a frown."Claudia, you should have better friends, more educated people, don't you think," she said ignoring my friend."Enough, Pilar! I'm not in the mood for your bad comments," I interrupted her rudely. "I don't understand you, you're my sister. You should be supporting me right now.""Claudia, you're not a child, I don't have to carry your mistakes."I only ask for understanding and moral support, I never said that you should carry them.""Girls, I hear your fight all the way to the kitchen. Pilar, stop being capricious, Claudia is your sister and we have to support each other as a family."
I tried to contact Pilar, but she did not answer my calls.I think our relationship as sisters will be terribly affected, I felt my heart ache, although my relationship with her was not good, I adore my sister.I had a lot of work, I was trying to concentrate, but Javier's visit had affected me more than I had thought."Clau, it's time to eat, we need to rest a little," Eva said. “By the way, what was Javier looking for you for?""Eva, you can't imagine, he's an idiot," I sighed.I told her in a nutshell what happened, she was my best friend and confidant, we had no secrets between us."I never liked him, but you were so in love with him that I simply respected your decision to be his girlfriend. Thank life that he got him out of your way and now you're with Alessandro, I really like him, I can tell he cares about you.""Good thing I was able to open my eyes and realize he's a jerk, now I'm just worried about Pilar.""Sorry to say these words, but he deserves it. Pilar was playing wit
It was true, after the discussion with Alessandro that day, I never spoke to him again and it was clear that it was because of my future husband's demands, ones that I didn't like very much to say the least."Tell him to come in.""Matteo, how are you?""I'm still sore from the blow, but I'm better now," he smiled sympathetically. "I wanted to talk to you, I think everything got out of control at the coffee shop," he said."True, but I really just want us to be good friends, I don't want any problems with Alessandro.""Claudia, do you really love him?""Yes, I really love Alessandro and I am very happy by his side," I said confidently."Well, it only remains for me to step aside, to wish you all the happiness in the world, in me you have a true friend, if you need help you can trust me," he said solemnly, he seemed sincere."Thank you, Matteo, in the same way I offer you my most sincere friendship," I smiled at him."What do you say we celebrate this new comiAlessandro," invited Eva,
Pov. Eva"Everybody out! I don't wish to see anyone at this time," shouted Alessandro."Mr. Alessandro, please listen to me, I'm sure this is a trap, we have to go get Claudia," I pleaded, desperate."Enough, Eva! Go away," he said, turning his back on me. "Well, I'm sure Claudia is in grave danger, but I'm going to go get her, if you want to believe in fake news that's your problem, but I know my friend. I'm leaving, bye," I shouted, leaving in annoyance. I ran out of the company, I needed help, but I didn't know where to turn.I was running so fast, I didn'tI didn't notice a car coming towards me, the car slammed on the brakes and I fell."The car slammed on the brakes and I fell. What a scare, why don't you watch where you're going?""Mr. Alexis Lombardi, is that you?""Yes, have we met," he looked at me puzzled."No, I'm just an employee of the company, I'm just surprised to see you, you hardly ever visit the company," I said with a shy smile. "Well, it's true what you say, bu
We left the hospital still feeling a little weak and Alessandro decided to leave me at home to rest, my family was very attentive to take care of me."Claudia, can we talk?"Sure, sis, come in.""I guess you're feeling much better already," she said with a shy smile."Yes, thanks to all your care, but tell me, is something wrong? Your face looks sad.""Javier talked to me, he told me he went looking for you.""That's true, but I swear I turned him down, I don't plan to go back to that guy, I love Alessandro.""I believe you, Claudia, I just didn't think he still had feelings for you, I admit it hurts to know that he still has you in his heart"She looked really sad, and despite her mistakes and having hurt me, she was my sister and I loved her, although I had to prove that I had changed to trust her one hundred percent."Pilar, someday you will find a good man, and he will know how to value you.""Thank you for your words, Claudia. I just wanted to make things clear between us. By the
I let go of Eva's grip and left the Lombardi mansion. To my good fortune, a cab was passing by. I took the vehicle and drove off and I turned back and saw how Alessandro was running behind the car without stopping. He looked desperate and worried, but I didn't want to talk to him right now. "Miss, do you want me to stop the car," asked the driver."No."The cab headed towards my house, I had no money to pay him, but just at that moment I noticed someone outside my house."Javier, what are you doing here?""Claudia, why are you crying?""I'll explain later, could you lend me some money to pay for the cab? As soon as I can, I'll pay you back.""Don't worry, I'll pay the driver right away."I sat down on a bench, my life these last few months was a disaster, although it was partly my fault for being so naïve."Tell me, what happened, Claudia," he said, approaching me. "I guess it's only logical, my wedding is off, that's all," I expressed bitterly. "Tell me what are you doing here in m
