Chapter 1.
Family agreement.
Watching time pass, 24-year-old Kaled Waldo hoped that the discussion outside would cease, as his mother Cristina Waldo was arguing with his grandmother Zulay about which of the two sisters should take the first step and get married…
And although she did not like the idea of leaving her life or being siblings by chance, it was no less true that her sister Yerai had been more successful in life, standing out as a great actress, while she only got secondary roles without any relevance…
Suddenly, the sound reigned outside his room, it seemed that a decision had already been made and his face paled with fear at the expectation of what the women had decided…
She was so nervous that she was biting her nails without realizing it to try to calm a little the desperation for the truth, a few moments later, they heard them both being called…
Then, they arrived at the living room; And when they were sitting down, Grandma Zulay commented: Well, after having thought about it and reasoned thoroughly with your mother, we have come to the conclusion that Yerai, as the eldest of the two of you, is going to marry Auritz Ferrán, and no more discussions are allowed…
He is a good match and he is courting the women of this family, Kaled, upon hearing that, let out a slow breath so that they would not notice that she was relieved with the decision that had been made…
However, her sister Yerai was not going to sit idly by, so she began to refute her grandmother's decision saying that the man had not made a public appearance in 10 years, that he may indeed be the CEO of a large entertainment corporation and that would help her to obtain more artistic recognition from him and probably, more leading roles, but that she was resigning before that marriage, because she could not be married to a person who was rumored to have a disfigured face due to a plane crash, and to top it off, he had been disabled and confined to a wheelchair for life…
She would not take care of that man, and in those conditions never and never, because first she had to maintain her reputation under any circumstances and she was not a rehabilitation center for invalid monsters…
Cristina stood up and took her daughter's hands and said: darling, but if you marry him you won't have to suffer a hard life, you will enjoy the man's money, besides, Zulay commented: and ¿what does it matter if the man is disfigured or in a wheelchair?
In my time they were even missing a leg and they gave you everything, as long as you gave them 12 boys, leave vanity aside a little and focus on what is really worth it, because the physical rusts, but what is inside prevails.
But the girl began to cry and stutter saying that she would not be with that spectre, such an ugly man was not worthy of a beauty like her.
