Demetrio had been convinced that Evangelina would win the bet, because the woman was so good that he himself doubted her abilities. But at the last moment, the very shrewd woman let herself be defeated. So, the CEO was left with the immense desire to drown himself with Eva's flower.Eva sat at her desk, overseeing the new projects her engineers had sent her; though she tried to concentrate, her mind kept wandering back to Demetrio and the words she had said to him when she realized she had lost."I hope you will keep your word and leave Santino," he said so earnestly that Eva went still, it seemed as if it hurt him a little to know she was with him as he said the words."But my children will grow up without a father," Eva looked down, waiting for Demetrio's reaction."Your children are mine because you are the woman I want in my life." Anderson swallowed hard; at that moment he didn't know how to react to what the Italian was telling him. A feeling of joy rose in his stomach and his e
He felt a current rise in his body, he did not know whether to cry, laugh or scream; he had been alone all his damn life, knowing that he had three beautiful children gave him great joy, but there was also this pain in the background, knowing that Eva had hidden it.He looked at Evangelina, who was crying, and with tears in his eyes, he pointed his finger at her and asked her:"Why, why Eva, why did you hide these from me, you told me they were Santino's, Santino's!" she cried."I was afraid, Demetrio," she whispered softly."Scared?" he snorted. "Afraid of what?""That you would reject her! That you would...""Shut up! You don't have a fucking excuse to say, just SHUT UP!" he stormed towards her with hatred, he couldn't breathe and the tears choked him. "I've been alone my whole fucking life and you think I'm going to turn my children away!" Eve glared at him with hatred, remembering what made him the real reason she had left."I know everything, Demetrius!" Demetrio looked at her co
Alina smiled, she was a woman with perfect white teeth; her hair, an ash blonde color, so long that she looked like a model; pretty, but not as pretty as Evangelizar Anderson, who left sighs in her wake.Demetrio looked at the girl who smiled at him and made a grimace of displeasure; he was no longer the young fool of before, he was no longer the most sought after heir, now the fucking CEO of Laureti Enterprises; she could not intimidate or manipulate him like in the past.He unbuttoned his jacket and sat down without a look on his face, not even moving Alina's chair out of courtesy. She was just a ghost of the past, something he didn't want to remember or live again."To what we have come, Mrs. Robinson," he said seriously, without even looking at the menu in his hands."Demetrio, aren't you glad to see me?" she asked in her sweet, fake voice."I don't care, Alina, maybe I was a little surprised because I didn't imagine that you were the owner of AndroiO, but now that I see it, I don
After a euphoric day at the office, Demetrio went to Antonio's house to clear his head. He needed it.He stopped his car, entered his friend's big and comfortable house, located in a good area of Florida.The music in the background told him that they were gathered in the garden, so he directed his steps there.He opened his eyes wide to see the number of people, and most of them were employees of the company, as soon as they saw Laureti, they remained static and serious as if they were inside the company."Brother, take off that bitter face, you scared everyone," Antonio approached with a smile and patted Demetrio's shoulder."Why the hell didn't you tell me it was a party, damn it, I'm out!" he tried to turn to leave, but a familiar silhouette made him stop, between a combination of anger and desire.Evangelina, arrived in a tiny red dress and black heels. Her black hair was loose and her face was perfectly made up.Demetrio clenched his fists in anger.How the hell is it possible t
Eva's eyes lit up when she heard Demetrio's words. Her hands began to tremble, and her heart began to pound. While Demetrio drove, with a flirtatious smile on his lips, Evangelina kept trembling, imagining the night she was about to spend."Are you nervous Miss Anderson?" he said smiling at her Where is the bravery now Eva? Or are you afraid your ex-boss will give you like a sewing machine?"I would have to be afraid, Mr. Demetrio," she replied in the same casual way he used to.They arrived at the Laureti mansion, Eva recognized it at once, although it was painted differently.Demetrio got out of the car, and took in a sweet gesture Eva's hand, who immediately blushed at his touch."Are you still collecting cars?" she asked as he saw, the number of them in the garage, and the bodyguards guarding the mansion."I like to take care of valuable things," he smiled.As soon as she entered the house, two huge dogs came out to meet her, Eva remembered them very well, she herself had taken ca
Demetrio swallowed hard, peeked through the door and stepped in behind Eva.The children stood in a row, side by side.He looked at each of them, his heart beating a thousand times an hour. Not knowing what to say or ask, it was Fernanda who approached him.Demetrio bent down to greet her. She was a beautiful girl, her face as fine as his.The girl placed her hand on his cheek and said in a whisper:"I knew you were my daddy," she whispered tearfully. Demetrio took the girl in his arms and held her tightly as he thanked God for his children.Andrea and Fernando stood and stared at Demetrio. They had seen him at home a few days before, but did not know he was their father.When Eva saw that the children were not moving, she pushed them a little to the back and made them walk over to Demetrio, who, seeing them, held out his hand to them to come closer."Daddy," the boys said.Demetrio felt as if his heart would burst out of his chest at that moment; he never in his life thought he would
Demetrio's cheeks were hot. The anger he felt at that moment took hold of him. To see Eva, his Eva, being kissed by another man, a stranger to him, hurt him to the core, and even more when that man was Santino San Roman, his rival.He left the phone on the desk and stared at the window with a lost look, he didn't want to think the worst, he had to ask Eva what had happened.But what would he ask? The fucking picture clearly showed them kissing. he thought in frustration.He clenched his fists in annoyance, still with his back to the window, still frowning, still staring at nothing, when warm hands embraced him.He wanted to pull them away in annoyance, but he tried to control himself. He took a deep breath as those hands embraced him from behind, as he felt the smell of perfume flood his nostrils....When Evangelina arrived at the office, everyone looked at her strangely, she knew that gossip ran in that company, and surely by now everyone knew that she was Demetrio Laureti's wife,
"No, not yet, but I will," she said smiling."And may I know the reason for your happiness?" asked San Roman curiously."I threw Eva down the stairs and the poor thing ended up in the hospital." Santino's eyes darkened; he felt the rage take hold of him.He angrily approached Alina and grabbed her by the neck."What did you say, you dared to hurt Eva!" He tightened his grip."Santi, let go of me, you're hurting me," she whispered."I told you not to touch a hair on her head, I told you the next time you hurt Eva, I'll kill you with my own hands!" he spat angrily.Lina was stunned. At that moment she felt that she hated Evangelina Anderson even more, not only Demetrio loved her, but also Santino, he was obsessed with her."You fucking bitch!" he whispered with hatred. "You will pay dearly for stealing Santino's love and Demetrio's money."Santino left in a hurry. He loved Eva with all his heart, and he could wish to take her away from his rival, and even do what was in his power to ach
