Chapter 11
Marc knew from the beginning that it was a bad idea to date someone from work. Then what happened happened. Jesse hadn't set foot in the firm for almost a month, which would have gotten him fired if Marc hadn't pulled the strings, and Victoria had asked for a leave taking advantage of the accumulation of vacation periods on her record. If that was all Jesse was doing wrong by not dealing with their breakup, Marc could intercede for him”which he had been doing since day one”but it kept giving him reasons to raise a voice and order.He had given in to her every plea. He tried to talk reason with Victoria, to no avail. He even made some inquiries behind their backs to make sure that the reasons that the woman gave to justify the divorce were true and that she was not cheating on him with another, thinking that if so, she could make the process more bearable. But no, just as he figured, Victoria was being legal. He even suffered from the decision made, which is why Marc stopped intervenin

"Nothing... I just went to see her last night, and she wasn't very excited."Mark sighed. Well, in most divorces two lawyers were needed, one representing each of the parties involved. She could collaborate with Tori if she cared that much.In the end he would have to give him that cable he asked for, and not because he had time to spare to handle another case, but out of pure appreciation. Although the Ambanis were three siblings in all, and three different women had carried the last name, Jesse was the only relative he felt in his family, besides Camila, who was like his adoptive mother. The 'great' Ambani's first wife had passed away without his knowing her, and his had died too. Of the others, his older brother and his father, he preferred not to comment. It was too early for him to be admitted for arterial obstruction, and he had too many enemies to give them the pleasure of dying young."As your adviser, I ask you, please, don't do that again." If he asks

The brother frowned as if he didn't know what he meant. Most of the time, his attitude was just desperate, but other times the distorted vision he had of things was comical. How the hell could he be a psychologist and at the same time so little self”aware? In his defense he would say that as long as he was paying attention, he was aware of the mood of others. That's why he was an excellent brother.Yasin, stop here. He gestured to the coachman. You have to take the detour to go to the apartment and I prefer that you leave this guy there. I can look for life. Do you remember the address?Yasin stopped at a red light and turned to say:"Are you sure you want me to take your brother there, boss?" That place contains relics and could break something. It's like putting an elephant in a glassware."You have to give him a vote of confidence," Marc intervened, opening the car door. I'll call the house landline tonight to make sure you're there and not drink

 "If you're flirting with me, know that I'm not Asian, I just have slant eyes." I was born in Barcelona and I am registered in Miami; I have dual Spanish and American nationality. But forget about it, this conversation is inappropriate. I don't even know how we got from the belt to this,” he added quietly.Marc pulled the belt forward, pleased with the initial results. It was very likely that she was pretending to be the impressionable young lady. If she had heard what they were saying about him, and knew that his reputation at Moore Lawyers was not as good as it was among his clients, then she would know what he would do to get away with it. He imagined her putting her pretty little head to work manipulating him in the same way. Or worse. Life had given him many key lessons, and one of them was that he should not underestimate the power of a woman who knew how to fake a sincere smile.But it wasn't just the smile, it was everything. From what he obs

“What happens? he murmured, noting that the numbers were no longer illuminated. He touched one at random. Nothing happened”. Has it broken down?Marc frowned, annoyed by the setback. He walked over and took a look himself. He rang the yellow bell several times."It seems so," he said between his teeth.Of all the days that could have happened, there had to be that one , the one where he was going to move forward with the divorce and the destruction of Campbell. If he believed in destiny or in some superior force, or for that matter, in God, he would have considered that this was a warning for his bad intentions. But even if he could have them, it wasn't the first time, nor was he going to lash out against someone innocent this time. Campbell deserved to go through hell.A nervous and melodic giggle cleared his thoughts. Marc looked down a few inches, meeting Yuri's calm smile."What amuses you?"She looked at him as if e

Yuri was slow to react, but as soon as she realized she was reading the novel, she jumped to her feet and tried to grab the book from her hand. She was no faster than Marc, who showed off his reflexes as he stepped back and raised the tome.“«He drew my hip towards his with a dominant attitude, making me feel his excitement. My vagina quivered with desire, painfully empty...». Painfully empty,” he repeated, raising his eyebrows. This is very explicit, Miss Sandoval. Is it what you like to take to an important meeting?"The condom man spoke 'just in case'," he grumbled, arms on hips. Give me the book.“Why? Not that you would have written it. It is in the public domain, we all have the right to enjoy the prose of... Uma Howland. Wow, is this her? It reinforces my theory that women writers of this kind of novels have as a rule not to be attractive. Of course, it's a personal opinion, and it's not like it has to be a requirement, but i

As a rule, he was good at applying theory to practice, but he couldn't downplay it. Perhaps because he was going to see him in three quarters of an hour and had not yet decided how he was going to greet him. A ridiculous concern, if you compare it with world hunger, the socioeconomic situation of countries in dictatorship and the fact that Trump was in power. But at that time, how to face Marc Ambani was a transcendental question.Most likely, the guy was pounced on the women. Perhaps he would even say good morning like that. Or maybe he was playing. Hot guys liked to do that, very funny for the ones who were also hot, and pretty fucked up for the ones who had a mental and emotional blockade to turn it off and let's go. She imagined that he would appear wrapped in his overbearing cologne, would address her without first”name names, and would resolve the Campbell negotiation in five seconds. Like nothing. And then, if he passed someone in the elevator, maybe he would get

Yuri wasn't quite sure about her little sister's feelings towards Caleb, but she was sure he was important to her and she suffered from his estrangement. Caleb was obsessed with work, and what little free time he had he spent hanging out with his best friend, as if he wasn't bored seeing her face every day. And when they met at family gatherings”Caleb was part of the Sandoval troop, because of the close relationship he had had with Yuri since they were children”they didn't pay much attention to each other. Not because Natsumi didn't want to, but because Caleb had lost interest in her over the years. He found her ridiculous, heavy and immature.“I prefer to wait until you can come. Or if not, I'll go alone. I hope your sister is doing well with her studies."'I hope your sister is doing well,'" he repeated, imitating her voice so well that it seemed he had said it himself. My God, Cal, you've grown up with Mio. It is okay that she is not a saint of your devotion, but do not refer to he

“I've brought Carol up to date, and she's willing to attend to those that are mandatory, although out of preference... whenever she can get out of it, she'll do it. As you will understand, Sandoval, I am here to please my client," he said almost purring. He accompanied the comment with a lean forward, which caught Yuri's attention. The way his lips spelled the word "pleasure" and its derivatives was as alluring as it was terrifying. You shouldn't worry about that. You and I have more than enough complicity to take care of the matter for them.We haven't started negotiations yet. You are speaking without knowing.“I am an intuitive man, and I have a feeling that we will get along perfectly.Yuri looked up from the printed report and looked at him, just to make sure he wasn't mistaking the cat by assuming he was provoking her. Of course he wasn't dreaming; that man came with built”in coquetry, it was a maxim in his personal essence. And he was so good at flirting that, more than answers

Yeah, okay, I had. Let them kill her, lock her up, do whatever they want, but she had no control over her body, okay? She could refine her voice, make the effort to look at his face and gesticulate as little as possible so that he wouldn't discover the truth...But the involuntary bodily reactions were the responsibility of biology and it was clear that it was on Marc's side."Whether I'm nervous or not, that doesn't affect what we have to do here at all.""Of course it affects. I can barely concentrate if I know he's thinking about me.Yuri blushed even more. My God, it was about time someone interrupted. Has anyone run out of staples? What was the photocopier waiting for to break?"I don't know what he's up to. I assure you that you are not going to get anywhere. You should know by now that I'm not meeting with you because you have very blue eyes.“It wouldn't occur to me to put myself as her priority, but don't take away an importan
