00:00:00I'm Sofia Mendoza, Harris to the Mendoza Group.
00:00:03I've done some crazy things in my life, but the craziest?
00:00:06Today I'm spending $200 million to propose to my fiancé's own brother.
00:00:10Yeah, I'm putting a ring on it and a green hat on him.
00:00:14Alejandro, this is $200 million. I need you to marry me.
00:00:17What do you mean? You're engaged to Matias, my brother.
00:00:20I'm breaking it off with him.
00:00:21Had a fight? So now you want to marry his brother out of spite and disgust me in the process?
00:00:26I'm serious.
00:00:27I'll pretend I didn't hear any of that.
00:00:28Alejandro, every woman in town wanted him, but he never cared.
00:00:31What I didn't know then was that his rejection wasn't accidental.
00:00:34He'd been hiding how he felt for years.
00:00:36And he almost gave himself away right there in front of me.
00:00:39I mean it. Please, marry me.
00:00:42Then tell me, what exactly did he do that's so unforgivable?
00:00:46Three months ago at the graduation party, Matias gave my favorite roses to another woman.
00:00:51Right in front of everyone. That's when it hit me.
00:00:54I was the joke in this relationship.
00:00:56Sofia, let me explain.
00:00:57Let's call off the engagement.
00:00:59What? Over one flower?
00:01:00One flower?
00:01:01Matias, on your birthday you didn't apply to a single text. Who were you with?
00:01:04Last week I had surgery and you said you were on a trip. Where'd you go?
00:01:08That necklace you gave me on Valentine's Day. Did you even pick it out yourself?
00:01:10Sofia, there are reasons for all of that.
00:01:13Right. You always have a reason.
00:01:15Your apologies are always right on time.
00:01:18You even say never again, so convincing me.
00:01:20But Matias, I'm done hearing it.
00:01:22Camila and I really are just-
00:01:24You don't need to explain who she is.
00:01:26Just have one question.
00:01:29Do you love her?
00:01:34You can't even say no.
00:01:35I can't explain it.
00:01:37But I don't want to lose you.
00:01:40Can't explain it. That's the clearest answer there is.
00:01:42Let's end the engagement. We're done.
00:01:45His face wasn't surprised. It was guilt.
00:01:48Maybe he'd been waiting for me to say it for a long time.
00:01:51He just didn't have the guts to go first.
00:01:53Fine. I'll be the one to end it.
00:01:55You want to use me to cut things off with Matias.
00:01:56Give me one reason I should say yes.
00:01:58Your grandfather's been pushing you to get married.
00:02:00If we marry, the family engagement stays intact.
00:02:01You stop getting nagged, and both companies keep the project moving.
00:02:04Once it's all settled, we divorce three, four years max.
00:02:06And you walk away with 200 million for free.
00:02:08Three birds, one stone.
00:02:09The way you put it, you'd think I need the money.
00:02:11Then what do you need?
00:02:12Nothing.
00:02:13Sorry, but my marriage is my decision.
00:02:15No need for Miss Mendoza to worry about it.
00:02:17But right as he walked out, his lips curved.
00:02:19Just barely.
00:02:20He was laughing at me.
00:02:21The coldest billionaire in the city was laughing at me.
00:02:27Valeria, he said no.
00:02:28What?
00:02:29He turned down 200 million?
00:02:30Is he insane?
00:02:31Yep.
00:02:32Totally bulletproof.
00:02:33So what now?
00:02:34More money.
00:02:34I'm going back tomorrow.
00:02:36No way.
00:02:36I can't crack him.
00:02:37When I said I'm going back tomorrow, even I thought it was funny.
00:02:40Me, Sofia Mendoza.
00:02:42I've never chased anyone in my life, let alone someone who just rejected me.
00:02:46But what I didn't know was, he was waiting for tomorrow too.
00:02:49Even more than I was.
00:02:51Day two.
00:02:52I'm back.
00:02:52I knew it'd be a tough negotiation.
00:02:55But I was going to win.
00:02:58210 million.
00:03:02220 million.
00:03:05230 million.
00:03:06He didn't even turn around.
00:03:08Like he was listening to an auction that had nothing to do with him.
00:03:13231 million, 50,000.
00:03:15Take it or leave it.
00:03:17Why'd you stop?
00:03:21That's literally all my money.
00:03:25And if I still say no?
00:03:27I'll find someone else.
00:03:28Someone else?
00:03:29You'd marry a stranger?
00:03:31Aren't you a stranger too?
00:03:32The second I said aren't you a stranger too, his eyes changed.
00:03:36It wasn't anger.
00:03:37It was more like that one word, stranger, stung him.
00:03:40Hard.
00:03:42He didn't even ask if I wanted water, just poured me a glass.
00:03:44I was thirsty, sure.
00:03:46But I couldn't tell if it was a coincidence or if he'd been quietly paying attention to me this whole
00:03:50time.
00:03:51I don't need the money.
00:03:52What?
00:03:53Keep your money.
00:03:54But I have three conditions.
00:03:56Go on.
00:03:57First, to the outside world we're a real couple.
00:04:00Second, you can't treat me like a prop.
00:04:02And the third?
00:04:04Everything.
00:04:05Leave it to me.
00:04:07You're not going to ask why I want to break off the engagement?
00:04:10The priority is solving the problem, isn't it?
00:04:15So, should we sign a contract?
00:04:19No need.
00:04:21There's a camera.
00:04:22I didn't expect him to refuse every penny.
00:04:24When he said leave it to me, his voice was so flat, like he was reading the weather.
00:04:28But those six words, it took me a long time to understand their weight.
00:04:31That was his deepest promise to me.
00:04:33Can I ask you for one thing?
00:04:34Go ahead.
00:04:35It's okay if you don't like me.
00:04:37But you can't be mean to me.
00:04:39What counts as mean?
00:04:41I don't know.
00:04:41I just, I can't stand being treated badly.
00:04:44If I am, I'll make a scene.
00:04:46Okay.
00:04:46Just, okay?
00:04:48You won't have to.
00:04:49When he said that, his eyes completely changed.
00:04:51It was like I'd accidentally hit a switch he'd been hiding for years.
00:04:54I just didn't get it yet.
00:04:56That behind all that coldness was the most protective love I'd ever seen.
00:05:03Sir, everyone's in the conference room.
00:05:08Well, you're busy.
00:05:09I'll go.
00:05:10Fernando will drive you.
00:05:11No need.
00:05:12I drove here.
00:05:14Your front left tire pressure is low.
00:05:15It's safer if he drives you.
00:05:18How do you know my tire pressure is low?
00:05:22I couldn't believe it.
00:05:24I'd been there less than 20 minutes and he'd already checked my car.
00:05:26The whole ride home, I could only think about one thing.
00:05:29If it wasn't about the money, then why did he say yes?
00:05:32Soon, I'd find out.
00:05:33And that answer kept me up all night.
00:05:40Hello?
00:05:41Babe, Mendoza-Castillo wedding.
00:05:42It's been all over the business news for three days.
00:05:44You got married and didn't tell me?
00:05:46What?
00:05:46Who's listed as the groom?
00:05:48Matias!
00:05:48They even ran your couple photo!
00:05:51That's impossible.
00:05:52We already?
00:05:53Four months.
00:05:54Alejandro Castillo told me, leave it to me.
00:05:56I'd been overseas doing magazine shoots, thinking everything would be settled by the
00:05:59time I got back.
00:06:00But the headlines were telling me I was still marrying Matias.
00:06:02Four months ago.
00:06:03After I worked out the deal with Alejandro, I started packing for Peru.
00:06:06But before I left, Matias showed up.
00:06:08He brought coffee.
00:06:09Remembered exactly how I like it.
00:06:11A year ago, that would have meant something.
00:06:12Now it just felt exhausting.
00:06:13You haven't been replying much lately.
00:06:15Busy.
00:06:17Sofia, I'm not agreeing to break up.
00:06:21What good does that do?
00:06:22Once things with Camila settles down, I'll...
00:06:24Every sentence you say starts with wait.
00:06:27Matias, I'm done waiting.
00:06:29If I don't like you, who else would I like?
00:06:31You already know the answer.
00:06:32You just don't have the guts to admit it.
00:06:34Some things don't need to be said out loud.
00:06:36His silence already answered for him.
00:06:39After that, I traveled across South America.
00:06:41In four months, I didn't think about Matias once.
00:06:44But I kept thinking about someone else.
00:06:46I called Alejandro.
00:06:47It was 2 a.m. his time.
00:06:49I didn't care.
00:06:53Who's this?
00:06:55Your creditor.
00:06:57Calling me in the middle of the night.
00:06:58What can I do for you, my creditor?
00:07:00The wedding news is all over the headlines.
00:07:03Do you know that?
00:07:04The whole city thinks I'm marrying Matias.
00:07:07What happened to what you promised?
00:07:10You're back the day after tomorrow?
00:07:12Don't change the subject.
00:07:13Then come.
00:07:14What I promised, I'll keep.
00:07:16He said then come.
00:07:18Flat as a weather report.
00:07:20But somehow his voice calmed me down instantly.
00:07:22It was like hearing someone say it's fine in the middle of a storm.
00:07:25You know it's not fine, but you believe them anyway.
00:07:28You'd better not let me down.
00:07:29Hmm.
00:07:30I'll be waiting for you to come give me trouble.
00:07:33Please.
00:07:34Alejandro.
00:07:35You're the only one who can help me.
00:07:37I really can't marry Matias.
00:07:39You won't lie to me?
00:07:40Right?
00:07:41Get some rest.
00:07:42Come home.
00:07:50He said come home.
00:07:51Not come back to the country, but come home.
00:07:54Like the place I was going back to wasn't a country.
00:07:56It was a person.
00:07:57What I didn't know then was that waiting for me back there wasn't just a broken engagement,
00:08:01but a man who'd been building an entire street for me since five years ago.
00:08:07Four months.
00:08:08The second the plane touched down, I could smell palm trees and the caramel sweetness of toasted
00:08:12crace.
00:08:13I was home.
00:08:15I caught myself scanning the crowd for him, then laughed at myself.
00:08:18A billionaire CEO doesn't pick people up at the airport.
00:08:21Hazelnut oat milk.
00:08:22My favorite.
00:08:22The cup was still warm.
00:08:23He timed it to my landing.
00:08:25Valeria, he didn't come, but he sent a car.
00:08:27And there's a coffee in the back seat.
00:08:30Hazelnut oat milk.
00:08:31Bah, babe.
00:08:33Since when does a business partner remember what coffee you drink?
00:08:36Wake up.
00:08:36Bye, bye, bye.
00:08:38You're blushing.
00:08:39It wasn't blushing.
00:08:40It was...
00:08:40Okay, she was right, but I wasn't going to admit it.
00:08:42Regina greeted me at the door.
00:08:44Big smile, but her hands were clenched.
00:08:47I noticed.
00:08:47Come, come, come.
00:08:48Let Grandpa see.
00:08:50Did you get a tan out there?
00:08:52Grandpa, no way.
00:08:53I put on three layers of sunscreen.
00:08:56Mendoza jeans.
00:08:57We don't tan.
00:08:58By the way, where's Matias?
00:09:00He didn't pick you up from the airport?
00:09:01Grandpa has a weak heart.
00:09:02I couldn't tell him we were breaking off the engagement.
00:09:04Not now.
00:09:04Young people are busy with work.
00:09:06Matias is on a business trip.
00:09:07No rush seeing him.
00:09:08Right, he's traveling.
00:09:09He'll be back soon.
00:09:15Sophia, you were gone four months.
00:09:18Poor Matias had a tough time alone.
00:09:22Thank you for your concern, Auntie Regina.
00:09:27After the wedding, stop running around.
00:09:29Stay by his side.
00:09:31And start calling me mom.
00:09:35Both families' projects are riding on you and Matias.
00:09:37You're a smart girl.
00:09:39You know what's at stake, right?
00:09:40When she said call me mom, her grip was ten times heavier than her smile.
00:09:44What she didn't know was, I'd already gone running to the other son.
00:09:47The one she raised.
00:09:55I need to tell you something.
00:09:56I had no idea if it was good news or bad.
00:09:59I stared at see you tomorrow for a long time.
00:10:02Three simple words, but somehow they made my heart race.
00:10:05And when he told me the next day, it changed everything.
00:10:08He sent Fernando to pick me up, said we needed to talk.
00:10:12There was a folder on the desk.
00:10:13Thick.
00:10:14His expression made me nervous.
00:10:16Matias and Camila.
00:10:17It's not rumors.
00:10:17It's real.
00:10:19How do you know?
00:10:20I looked into it.
00:10:23For how long?
00:10:27Four months.
00:10:30Four months?
00:10:31You weren't doing nothing.
00:10:32You were investigating the whole time?
00:10:36The wedding announcement was to pressure him.
00:10:39Force him to face reality.
00:10:41Tonight, I'm meeting Matias.
00:10:43He picks.
00:10:44What do you want him to choose?
00:10:47I want him to choose what he actually wants.
00:10:52I wasn't there.
00:10:53Fernando told me everything word for word afterward.
00:10:57You investigated me.
00:10:59Who are you to judge me?
00:11:02I'm not judging you.
00:11:04I'm giving you a choice.
00:11:07Camila or Sofia, pick one.
00:11:11I don't want to give up either of them.
00:11:14Then you'll lose both.
00:11:16Fernando said he was watching from the hallway, hands shaking,
00:11:20because he'd never seen Alejandro with that look in his eyes.
00:11:24It wasn't anger.
00:11:25It was absolute certainty.
00:11:28Your choice.
00:11:29I got it.
00:11:29Camila helped me back then.
00:11:31I can't give her up.
00:11:33Hmm.
00:11:34I don't quite get it.
00:11:36But you don't owe me an explanation.
00:11:38Bro, take care of Sofia for me.
00:11:45What I do and what happens between us,
00:11:47that's none of your business anymore.
00:11:50He said, take care of Sofia for me.
00:11:52Alejandro heard it, but he wasn't doing it because his brother asked.
00:11:55He never needed anyone to tell him to be good to someone.
00:11:58He just needed a reason.
00:12:00And Matias handed him one.
00:12:01He gave the umbrella to his brother and walked into the rain himself.
00:12:08White shirt soaked through, but his pace didn't change.
00:12:13The first thing he did when he got back to his office was make a phone call to the civil
00:12:18registry.
00:12:21The next morning, he came to pick me up.
00:12:23The first thing out of his mouth was, let's go get our marriage license.
00:12:28Everyone was called to the villa.
00:12:30My heart was pounding so loud I could hear it.
00:12:32Palms drenched, but I didn't dare wipe them because he was standing right next to me.
00:12:35What's so important it has to be said in person?
00:12:38The engagement between Matias and Sofia is soft.
00:12:43What do you mean?
00:12:46Grandpa, I'm not good enough for Sofia.
00:12:48Nonsense! What not good enough? Matias, don't say things like that!
00:12:51Quiet!
00:12:52When Matias said not good enough, he wasn't being humble.
00:12:55He meant it.
00:12:56I felt a pang of softness for a split second, but only a second.
00:12:59What about the joint project?
00:13:01If the engagement's off, does the partnership still hold?
00:13:03The family engagement still holds.
00:13:06Sofia won't marry Matias.
00:13:08She's marrying me.
00:13:13What did you just say?
00:13:14Impossible!
00:13:16It's been decided.
00:13:17Sofia, is this what you want?
00:13:19Dad, this is my choice.
00:13:23Okay.
00:13:24The moment Dad nodded, but I held it in.
00:13:27Alejandro was right there.
00:13:28I couldn't let him see me cry.
00:13:29Your brother's fia-
00:13:41That's what I wanted to say.
00:13:58We'll have a ceremony later.
00:14:01Let's make it official first.
00:14:04we didn't even take a photo together later no flowers no ring no wedding but when he closed
00:14:12the car door his fingers brushed the back of my hand so light like an accident but if it was
00:14:18an
00:14:18accident why did they stay there for two full seconds first day in the new house i hadn't even
00:14:24finished unpacking and matias showed up you married him you actually married him matias

00:16:31you can't even say no i can't explain it but i don't want to lose you can't explain it that's
00:16:38the
00:16:38clearest answer there is let's end the engagement we're done his face wasn't surprised it was guilt
00:16:45maybe he'd been waiting for me to say it for it for a long time he just didn't have the
00:16:49guts to go
00:16:49first fine i'll be the one to end it you want to use me to cut things off with matias
00:16:56give me one
00:16:56reason i should say yes your grandfather's been pushing you to get married if we marry the family
00:17:00engagement stays intact you stop getting nagged and both companies keep the project moving once it's
00:17:03all settled we divorce three four years max and you walk away with two hundred million for free
00:17:07three birds one stone the way you put it you think i need the money then what do you need
00:17:11nothing sorry but my marriage is my decision no need for miss mendoza to worry about but right as
00:17:17he walked out his lips curved just barely he was laughing at me the coldest billionaire in the city
00:17:21was laughing at me valeria he said no what he turned down 200 million is he insane yep totally
00:17:31bulletproof so what now more money i'm going back tomorrow no way i can't crack him when i said
00:17:37i'm going back tomorrow even i thought it was funny me sophia mendoza i've never chased anyone
00:17:42in my life let alone someone who just rejected me but what i didn't know was he was waiting for
00:17:47tomorrow too even more than i was can i ask you for one thing go ahead it's okay if you
00:17:55don't like me
00:17:56but you can't be mean to me what counts as mean i don't know i just i can't stand being
00:18:02treated
00:18:02badly if i am i'll make a scene okay just okay you won't have to when he said that his
00:18:09eyes
00:18:09completely changed it was like i'd accidentally hit a switch he'd been hiding for years i just
00:18:14didn't get it yet that behind all that coldness was the most protective love i'd ever seen

00:23:32next day it changed everything he sent fernando to pick me up said we needed to talk there was a
00:23:38folder on the desk thick his expression made me nervous matias and camila it's not rumors it's real

00:23:54four months
00:23:56four months you weren't doing nothing you were investigating the whole time
00:24:02the wedding announcement was to pressure him force him to face reality
00:24:07tonight i'm meeting matias he picks
00:24:11what do you want him to choose
00:24:14i want him to choose what he actually wants
00:24:20i wasn't there fernando told me everything word for word afterward
00:24:26you investigated me who are you to judge me

00:24:35camila or sophia pick one
00:24:39i don't want to give up either of them
00:24:42then you'll lose both
00:24:45fernando said he was watching from the hallway
00:24:47hands shaking
00:24:48because he'd never seen alejandro with that look in his eyes
00:24:52it wasn't anger
00:24:53it was absolute certainty
00:24:56your choice
00:24:57i got it
00:24:58camilia helped me back then
00:24:59i can't give her up
00:25:01hmm

00:25:04but you don't owe me an explanation
00:25:06bro take care of sophia for me
00:25:13what i do and what happens between us
00:25:16that's none of your business anymore
00:25:18he said take care of sophia for me
00:25:20alejandro heard it
00:25:21but he wasn't doing it because his brother asked
00:25:23he never needed anyone to tell him to be good to someone
00:25:26he just needed a reason
00:25:28and matias handed him one
00:25:32your brother's fiance
00:25:33and you steal her
00:25:35she's nobody's fiance

00:25:46and now even your brother's woman
00:25:48are you done
00:25:48i was hiding around the corner
00:25:50heard everything
00:25:51regina's hatred for him wasn't about me
00:25:54it started long before
00:25:55that kind of hate wasn't anger
00:25:57it was fear
00:25:58so
00:25:59we're married
00:26:01just like that
00:26:02we'll have a ceremony later
00:26:03let's make it official first

00:26:08later

00:26:12no ring
00:26:12no wedding
00:26:13but when he closed the car door
00:26:15his fingers brushed the back of my hand
00:26:17so light
00:26:18like an accident
00:26:19but if it was an accident
00:26:21why did they stay there for two full seconds

00:26:40just like that
00:26:41when he rushed at me
00:26:43i stepped back
00:26:45not out of fear
00:26:46just instinct
00:26:56put your hand down
00:26:56bro

00:27:34when he said don't be scared
00:27:36his voice was so low
00:27:37only i could hear it
00:27:39he didn't say i'll protect you
00:27:41but those three words said it all
00:27:43when he held my hand
00:27:44for that one second
00:27:45my heartbeat changed
00:27:46not just faster
00:27:48completely different rhythm
00:27:49i watched his back
00:27:51and thought
00:27:51what if this
00:27:52this isn't just a contract
00:27:53what if he actually
00:27:55then i'm done for
00:27:58after matias left
00:27:59he said he had work to do
00:28:01and told me to rest
00:28:02but at 2 a.m.
00:28:03i heard the rain
00:28:04and someone breathing
00:28:06what are you doing
00:28:07why are you still up
00:28:09standing in the rain at midnight
00:28:10what's wrong with you

00:28:20neither am i
00:28:21he took the umbrella
00:28:22but didn't open it
00:28:23just held it
00:28:24like he wasn't used to
00:28:25someone sheltering him
00:28:25from the rain
00:28:26is this about matias
00:28:27no
00:28:28something much older
00:28:29how old

00:28:32the year my mom died
00:28:34he said the year my mom died
00:28:35so calmly
00:28:36too calmly
00:28:37that's how i knew the feelings
00:28:38underneath were shattered
00:28:39then what
00:28:40dad married regina
00:28:41she told everyone
00:28:42alejandro is the child
00:28:44i love most
00:28:44and behind closed doors
00:28:46moved my room next to
00:28:47the storage closet
00:28:47threw away my backpack
00:28:49all my clothes were
00:28:50matias's hand-me-downs
00:28:52your dad didn't do anything
00:28:54busy
00:28:55she put on a good show
00:28:57in front of him
00:28:57my whole body went cold
00:28:59listening
00:28:59not from the rain
00:29:01but because he said
00:29:02all of that
00:29:03with zero expression
00:29:04on his face
00:29:05like he was reading
00:29:06someone else's story
00:29:09so
00:29:10you were alone
00:29:11your whole childhood
00:29:12grandpa was good to me
00:29:13besides grandpa
00:29:15nobody
00:29:16it's just a contract
00:29:18but
00:29:18at least on paper
00:29:20you have a home now
00:29:22yeah
00:29:23don't stand in the rain alone anymore
00:29:25when he said yeah
00:29:26his voice sounded softened by the rain
00:29:27for the first time
00:29:28i realized he wasn't as strong as he looked
00:29:30he was just really good at pretending
00:29:32go change
00:29:33don't catch a cold
00:29:34you stood out there for 30 minutes
00:29:36you counted

00:29:3930 minutes
00:29:40however long
00:29:41he'd been in the rain
00:29:42that's how long he'd been counting
00:29:44that night i couldn't sleep
00:29:45tossing and turning
00:29:47not because i was cold
00:29:48because my heart ached
00:29:50for someone it shouldn't ache for
00:29:51and the scariest part
00:29:52i was starting to realize
00:29:54that his reason for marrying me
00:29:55was so much heavier
00:29:56than i'd thought
00:29:57welcome ma'am

00:36:22no comment
00:36:23i stared at that like
00:36:24for a full five behind the scenes
00:36:25he'd already given me so much more
00:36:27i just had no idea
00:36:31two weeks into the marriage
00:36:32i made my first public appearance
00:36:34as mrs castillo
00:36:35a business gala
00:36:37i wore the wine red dress he'd bought
00:36:39if you're uncomfortable

00:36:41we can leave anytime
00:36:42i'm not three years old
00:36:43you're my wife
00:36:44more important than a three-year-old
00:36:46he said
00:36:47my wife
00:36:47in public
00:36:48like it was the most natural thing
00:36:49like breathing
00:36:50i wonder if he noticed
00:36:52i was wearing the dress he picked
00:36:56so you're the new wife
00:36:57hi
00:36:59alejandro's taste is
00:37:01surprising
00:37:03i thought he'd pick someone more
00:37:05suited to him
00:37:08and you are
00:37:09andrea
00:37:10supermodel
00:37:11alejandro and i go way back

00:37:16he's married
00:37:18married
00:37:19you sure it'll last
00:37:21when she said that
00:37:21her eyes scanned me head to toe
00:37:23that look wasn't curiosity
00:37:24it was calculation
00:37:25she was sizing up
00:37:27whether i was worth competing with
00:37:36i stood ten feet away
00:37:38watched her link her arm through his
00:37:40he didn't pull away
00:37:42what's wrong
00:37:44tired i'm leaving
00:37:45i'll take you
00:37:46no need
00:37:47go hang out with your old friend

00:37:52i'm not angry
00:37:53i just
00:37:54don't want to be here
00:37:55andrea and i have nothing going on
00:37:57you don't owe me an explanation
00:37:59we're on a contract
00:38:00who you're friends with
00:38:01isn't my business
00:38:03are you really not angry
00:38:05i said i'm not angry
00:38:07when you're angry
00:38:08you talk faster
00:38:09he even knows i talk faster
00:38:11when i'm mad
00:38:12i wanted to hit him
00:38:13but i was angrier at myself
00:38:15why was i jealous
00:38:16that night in bed
00:38:17i spent a whole hour wondering
00:38:19when she linked arms with him
00:38:21was he uncomfortable
00:38:22even a little
00:38:23one week later
00:38:24i took on a magazine cover shoot
00:38:26photographer was my old friend miguel
00:38:27and i was doing the retouching
00:38:28got to the set
00:38:29and found out the cover model
00:38:30was andrea
00:38:31what a coincidence
00:38:32mrs castillo takes on magazine gigs
00:38:34i thought heiresses didn't need to work
00:38:35i like working
00:38:36it has nothing to do with needing to
00:38:40true
00:38:40after all your marriage is basically a job right
00:38:48alejandro
00:38:48what are you doing here
00:38:51picking someone up
00:38:52it's been so long
00:38:54dinner sometime
00:38:57let go
00:38:58when he said let go
00:38:59it wasn't loud
00:39:00but the entire studio went silent
00:39:03like the volume was turned to zero
00:39:06let's go
00:39:08alejandro
00:39:09aren't you being a bit cold
00:39:10we've known each other for years
00:39:11i heard you push someone here
00:39:14that that was nothing
00:39:18andrea
00:39:19i'll say this once
00:39:20she is my wife
00:39:21if she says there's a problem with you
00:39:22then there's a problem
00:39:23if she says no working together
00:39:24then it's off
00:39:24you don't have to like me
00:39:25but you do not get to make her unhappy
00:39:27clear
00:39:27he said she is my wife
00:39:28in front of everyone
00:39:29it wasn't a declaration
00:39:30it was a warning
00:39:32sofia
00:39:33i was out of line
00:39:35i'm sorry
00:39:36apology accepted
00:39:37but from now on
00:39:38wherever it is
00:39:39don't touch my people
00:39:41she apologized
00:39:42but her eyes told me
00:39:43this wasn't over
00:39:44she wasn't giving up
00:39:45on alejandro that easily
00:39:46but that's a problem for later
00:39:48right now
00:39:49he was all i cared about
00:39:54when you just
00:39:55said i was your wife
00:39:58sounded really serious
00:40:01because i mean it
00:40:03he said because i mean it
00:40:04and my heart slipped a beat
00:40:05in that moment i thought
00:40:06what if this wasn't a contract
00:40:08what if he was actually
00:40:09the one i chose
00:40:10how good would that be
00:40:11but i didn't dare follow
00:40:12that thought
00:40:12because once i did
00:40:13there'd be no turning back
00:40:17valeria dragged me to a bar
00:40:18said i'd gotten boring
00:40:19since the wedding
00:40:20three tequilas later
00:40:21i agreed with her
