Chapter 32
Alice - aaaah Toninho, why be so extreme, if you're mad because I didn't invite you to a party, we can have one of our own right now - coming closer and rubbing herself against him - I'll call the company and cancel all my appointments and it'll be just the two of us, making love the way you like it - she tries to kiss him, but Tom holds her arms around her
Tom - LOVE ME? HAVE YOU EVER LOVED ME? BECAUSE I DON'T THINK SO! I'M JUST SEX TO YOU, JUST LIKE ALL THE PEOPLE YOU LIE DOWN WITH. HOW MANY OF THEM WERE THERE TONIGHT? I DOUBT IT WAS JUST ONE
Alice - WHO ARE YOU TO DEMAND LOVE? YOU AND ANNIE TOOK ME INTO THIS WORLD AND NOT TO MENTION YOU NEVER STOPPED LOVING THAT BITCH KIRSTIN WHO LEFT YOU FOR HER LITTLE FRIEND. DON'T CHARGE ME FOR WHAT YOU CAN'T GIVE ME TOM
Tom - YOU'RE RIGHT I'VE NEVER FORGOTTEN HER, BUT YES I LOVED YOU MARIA ALICE AND IT HURTS ME TO SEE THIS DEVIL WHO HAS BEEN TRANSFORMED, THIS WOMAN, COLD, BORRY, UNRUPPOSED, THIS TRAMP. - Alice hits him in the face - LOOK YOU WOULD GET BURNED BUT I WOULD NEVER BEAT YOU, NO MATTER HOW CREATINAL YOU ARE YOU GIVEN THE BEST GIFT OF MY LIFE THAT IS MY CHILD AND YOU MAY NOT BELIEVE I LOVE YOU MORE THAN YOU DESERVE AND I WOULD NEVER BEAT A WOMAN - he turns away from her - AAAAH YOU DON'T NEED TO CANCEL YOUR COMMITMENT TO ME, IF YOU WANT TO DO SOMETHING, DO IT WITH YOUR DAUGHTER WHO MISSES YOU - HER BIRTHDAY IS COMING UP AND YOU DON'T EVEN CARE - LEAVE EVERYTHING TO ANNIE
Alice - Come on Tom, what's your problem, why are you like this? We have lived these 15 years well, I go out with whom I want and you with whom you want, we go out together and have our affairs, why do you care?
Tom - We are no longer children and for a long time this has not been working, and you are no longer the same, today is the middle of the week we have to leave for work in a few hours and your state is deplorable, you are a mother has to set an example and what do you do? N A D A ! NOT EVEN REMEMBER YOU HAVE THE LUNA! TELL ME WITH ALL SINCERITY ON BEHALF OF ALL WE LIVED UNTIL TODAY BECAUSE YOU DO NOT LIKE HER?
Alice - Of course I like my daughter, don't tell her nonsense Tom
Tom - YES? IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE IT, YOU ARE NEVER WITH HER, YOU NEVER GO TO ANYTHING WITH HER UNLESS YOU KNOW THERE WILL BE PAPARAZZI, YOU NEVER HAVE ANY AFFECTION FOR HER AND A MOTHER AND DAUGHTER MOMENT.
Alice - FUCK YOU IMAGINE HOW HARD IT IS TO LOOK AT LUNA AND SEE THAT SHE LOOKS FATHER'S FATHER, EVERY TIME I SEE MY DAUGHTER I REMEMBER HIS FATHER, WHAT A FUCKING IMBECLE HE WAS AND YES I LOVE HIM AND I LOVE YOU ALSO BUT I CAN'T FORGET HIM NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES WE MAKE LOVE AND WITH HOW MANY PEOPLE, I can still smell it on me, I just want to get it out of me." Crying with rage, Tom pulls her into a tight embrace.
Tom - Maria but Luna and no one you mistreat is to blame for what you've been through with her father and your parents, you should take all the bad things they've done to you and try to be someone better, be better than your parents to our little girl and don't look at what you do? Did you know that Annie wants to leave?
Maria - How? go where? but the company? she can't leave, now that we are finally partners of the Beckermans, she can't leave me.
Tom - You see how you are? you don't ask why, if she is well, she is only thinking about the company and the money. Maria, she won't stop working, but Annie is a sensitive person and you have hurt her a lot, I'm not going to tell her where she's going if she wants to, she'll tell you herself. Better said, take care of yourself or you'll end up alone, it won't just be Annie who leaves. - Give her a kiss on the top of the head and leave her alone.
Maria was in shock at everything she heard from her husband, went upstairs to her room, threw herself on the bed, and allowed herself to cry herself to sleep.
P.O.V AUTHOR
Alice slept for three hours only to wake up with a tremendous headache and a sore body after the night. But what was really hurting was her bruised ego, the words said by her husband hit no matter how hard she tries not to show people, she knew she had become a monster, but it's not something she wanted, but she also couldn't not be that way. Since her life turned upside down it was the way she found to protect herself. As for Luna she loves her just doesn't know how to love her, but a part of her also hates her daughter, who reminds her of her biological father and looking at her daughter always reminds her of him.
With all her hangover and bad mood she gets up, takes a long shower, gets dressed and goes to Beckermanns Models without even having breakfast. Nick provided everything quickly and went to Alice's room that was massaging her seasons
