ALEXANDER I was enjoying my glass of whiskey in front of my balcony, feeling the wind blowing against my face and looking towards the sea savoring my victory, which was very close.Everything was going as I had planned, Isabella's father had no way out and I knew it, he must be totally desperate waiting for a miracle and for someone to help him, but no one halfway intelligent would help him at a time like this. Helping him would only mean losing money that would never be recovered and even getting in trouble with the law, just to try to save a bastard who didn't deserve it.He would finally pay for what he has done, not only to my dad but to so many other people, he would finally be where he belongs, locked up behind bars living a hell, in which he could atone for every one of his sins.This was the end of everything, of my revenge, of his freedom, of my relationship with Isabella and my stay here, all this will end very soon.And I will only be left with the memories of her, of ever

I clarify that in no context the situations described in this chapter seem good to me or I approve of them.ISABELLAOn my way home I received many calls from Andrew, I don't know if Caroline or Mike told him about what happened or if he is just calling to congratulate me and see if I liked his gift, but right now I don't want to talk to anyone, not even him, I feel too broken, I just want to lock myself in my little world to try to heal my wounds alone and try to assimilate all this, so I turned off my phone before I got home.When I arrived I was surprised to find my dad sitting on the couch, looking really furious, like he was about to explode, his face was red and he had a bottle of whiskey in his hand which he was drinking straight from, this sight frightened me, I had never seen him so angry, so I wanted to just go straight up to my room trying to go

Currently.ALEXANDER After Isabella got out of the emergency room I stayed with her all day keeping her company and had spent the night in the hospital, but in the afternoon of the next day I left her in Caroline's care to go to my hotel to take a shower and then settle some pending accounts.That's what I came to do the moment I arrived at the house where my sister lives, I believed everything Caroline had told me but I needed an explanation from Emma or at least to be held accountable for her actions."Good afternoon young man" Carmina greeted letting me pass."Where is my sister?" I asked directly, at this point I had no time for cordialities I needed to get back to the hospital as soon as possible."In her room." hearing her answer I went straight upstairs and opened the door to her room without knocking.She was lying on the bed apparently watching something on her phone and when she saw me enter she looked at me puzzled."What are you doing here?" she asked without preamble and

ALEXANDER "What progress have they made?" asked Andrew referring to the search for Isabella's father.A month had already passed, Isabella was fully recovered from the blows but still did not wake up, the doctors said that everything was fine, but still there was no response from her and it was too scary to see that the days passed and she still could not open her eyes, it had us all very desperate.During this time Andrew and I found a way to be moderately at peace, after all we spent too much time in the hospital with Isabella, so we had to find a way to support each other, we could not make a scene in the hospital and it was too uncomfortable to be always hostile to a person you are with every day."Everything is still the same, they are looking for him but he hasn't left any trace" I answered frustrated.I was tired of Isabella remaining in a coma while that coward was free, without paying for what he did to her.It was very frustrating to know that he hurt his daughter so much o

ISABELLA "Alexander is here, he wants to see you," says Caroline entering the room with two cups of coffee in her hands."Tell him to come in.""Really?" asked Andrew puzzled. "I thought you didn't want to see him.""Yeah, let him come in." I repeated, hoping I was making the right decision.I had to cut this out at once, it was the healthiest thing for both of us, I think if I didn't agree to see him he would keep insisting and it was better to clear everything up as soon as possible.Caroline came out to tell him to come in and there he was, looking as stunning as ever, but this time when I took a better look at him, I could tell he had lost weight and that made my heart squeeze."Hi, how have you been feeling?" he asked with a small smile, but I could tell he was nervous."Please leave us alone" I said looking towards Caroline and Andrew."Are you sure?" asked the latter looking unconvinced."Yes, please" I said and they both walked out."Please sit down" I said pointing to the cou
