Introduction

¿Por qué nos aferramos a lo que nos perjudica?
Helena está desesperada, necesita dinero para pagar sus crecientes deudas, ya que ha quedado huérfana y debe cuidar a su hermano menor, que se enferma con frecuencia.
Un puesto como secretaria presidencial en INDUSTRIAS ALLER S.A. podría cambiarle la vida, pero Helena nunca pensó que un requisito imprescindible sería tener que soportar la presencia diaria del director general de la empresa, Sebastián Aller, hijo mayor y heredero de casi toda la riqueza, además de ser un ogro arrogante y narcisista.
El deseo de Helena de una vida mejor se cruzará con los deseos de Sebastián, quien se alegra de que su riqueza aumentará al contraer un matrimonio concertado con su nueva esposa europea, hasta que una nueva cláusula en el contrato que su abogado olvidó aparezca como un escollo. Sebastián teme no poder cumplir con este nuevo requisito, arriesgándose a perderlo todo y dejar a su envidioso y resentido hermano menor Alan como nuevo director ejecutivo, quien no se detendrá ante nada para destruir su vida.
¿Será Helena quien ayude a Sebastián a cumplir con esta cláusula?
Helena no sabe hasta dónde llegará para que su hermano tenga una vida mejor.

Chapter 1

—¡Esto es ridículo! —gritó el hijo menor de la importante familia Aller al abogado y a su hermano mayor, Sebastián Aller, quien sonreía complacido con las nuevas noticias mientras observaba a su hermano ponerse rojo de ira.

—Lo siento, hermanito, pero estas son las últimas palabras de nuestro querido y difunto padre —se burló.

—¡Pero esto no puede ser verdad! Papá estaba loco si pensaba que era una buena idea dejarte en su lugar —protestó—. ¡Eres un inútil! Gastas todo nuestro dinero en mujeres, alcohol y coches de lujo. ¡No tienes ni idea de cómo gestionar una empresa! ¡Yo debería estar en esa posición! —gritó, golpeando la mesa de cristal en la oficina del abogado. Sebastián, el hijo mayor y nuevo heredero de más de la mitad de la riqueza que su padre había adquirido con su empresa tecnológica, sonrió divertido sin decir nada, sabiendo que había ganado esta batalla. No le importaba si su hermano lloraba y pataleaba, no le daría ni un centavo más.

—Lo siento, señor Aller —respondió el abogado asustado a Alan—. Pero esos son los deseos de su padre, el 35 por ciento de los ingresos para usted y el 65 por ciento para su hermano Sebastián y la posición dejada vacante por el difunto señor Aller —dijo, revisando los documentos.

—¿Ves, hermanito? Papá sabía quién era el más competente de los dos —dijo, ampliando su sonrisa y mostrando sus dientes brillantes y relucientes que parecían de marfil.

—Hay una cosa más —dijo el hombre delgado y escuálido con miedo, pareciendo un insecto al lado de los dos Adonis frente a él.

—¿Qué es? —preguntó impacientemente el hermano mayor, queriendo irse lo antes posible, odiando las reuniones y el papeleo, simplemente aburriéndose. No podía esperar a tener todo bajo su poder y en su cartera.

—Para reclamar la herencia y mantener la posición de CEO de Industrias Aller, debe casarse con la mujer que su padre acordó en el testamento. Él creía firmemente en la familia y las costumbres, no quería dejar una mala imagen para su empresa. Ambos hermanos quedaron atónitos, pero más Sebastián, quien nunca había sido un hombre de una sola mujer, y no tenía planes de estar atado en un matrimonio arreglado con una mujer insoportable y caprichosa que seguramente lo haría miserable.

—Esto se está poniendo interesante —exclamó Alan divertido, sabiendo que su hermano no podría aceptar esa cláusula.

—Cállate —gruñó el hermano mayor.

—En caso de que esto no ocurra, el señor Alan sería quien heredaría la posición y la mayoría de las ganancias.

—Basta de chismes y dime de una vez quién será la mujer afortunada en casarse conmigo. Alan puso los ojos en blanco, el abogado agarró el testamento y leyó en voz alta:

—Señorita Katlyn Walker, heredera y dueña de la mayor empresa de cosméticos de Europa. Ambos hermanos quedaron atónitos al escuchar el nombre de la prometida de Sebastián. Para el nuevo heredero, ahora no era tan mala idea casarse, esa mujer dormía sobre colchones de euros, si combinaba su riqueza con la de ella, sería asquerosamente rico, no tendría límites. Pensó, saboreando e imaginando sus nuevas adquisiciones para cuando estuviera casado. Pero Alan, quien pensaba que su hermano finalmente recibiría el castigo que merecía, ahora quería asesinarlo. Porque sabía perfectamente quién era esa mujer, la había amado desde que tenía memoria, y había imaginado, una vez muerto su padre y con el poder en sus manos, proponerle matrimonio. Pero ahora su hermano iba a quitársela, ¡la mujer de sus sueños! No podía permitir que ese idiota pusiera una mano sobre una mujer tan hermosa y prestigiosa como ella. Alan se levantó bruscamente de la mesa de reuniones, tirando la silla con fuerza.

—¿A dónde vas, hermanito? —preguntó con un tono insoportable e irritante.

—No tengo nada más que hacer aquí, disfruta de tu riqueza, hermano, espero que la vida te dé lo que mereces.

—Espero lo mismo, hermanito. —Alan salió de la oficina dando un portazo.

—Encárgate de todo el papeleo y del compromiso —ordenó al abogado—. Debo ir a organizar mi nueva oficina. —Sonrió victorioso. Al final, ese viejo arrogante y narcisista había sido bueno en algo. Se dijo a sí mismo, pensando en su padre a quien nunca había soportado en vida.

—Gracias por cuidarlo, en serio, la niñera no quiso venir porque fue sin previo aviso y...

—Está bien, Hele, no te preocupes. Y ve rápido, no llegarás a la entrevista. Helena De Luna sonrió a su mejor y único amigo David, no sabía cómo agradecerle por aceptar cuidar de su hermanito en el último momento. Desde que su padre había muerto de una grave enfermedad, habían estado solos contra el mundo. Lucas se había convertido en un hijo para Helena, pero también había sido muy difícil para ella esta responsabilidad, porque el pequeño era muy delicado y se enfermaba regularmente, teniendo que correr al hospital varias veces al mes y dejando enormes facturas que no tenía idea de cuándo podría pagar. Pero hoy tenía un rayo de esperanza, porque había encontrado en línea que estaban buscando una nueva secretaria para el nuevo CEO de una empresa tecnológica de la que no tenía idea, pero parecía ofrecer buen salario, y realmente necesitaba el dinero.

—¡Gracias, David, gracias! —dijo saltando sobre él y abrazándolo fuertemente. El joven se rió de la actitud infantil de su amiga, pero disfrutando del abrazo, luego la soltó, aunque realmente no quería hacerlo.

—Apresúrate —ordenó con una sonrisa. Helena besó a su hermanito en la frente, quien estaba en el suelo jugando con sus viejos juguetes.

—Pórtate bien con David, ¿de acuerdo? Volveré en un rato. El niño asintió sin dejar de jugar.

—Llámame si necesitas algo —dijo a su amigo antes de irse.

—Sí, sí, ¡ya vete! Helena le sonrió y salió corriendo de su pequeño estudio en el centro de la ciudad. La joven corría con el corazón en la garganta, el autobús había tardado más de lo esperado en llegar y estaba llegando justo a tiempo. Vio el gran edificio con miles de ventanas y muchos pisos al otro lado de la calle con un gran letrero iluminado que decía "INDUSTRIAS ALLER S.A.". Cruzó la calle, pero como siempre había sido una mujer torpe y distraída, su tobillo se torció porque no estaba acostumbrada a los zapatos de tacón alto y cayó de bruces sobre el duro cemento de la calle, raspándose la rodilla y manchando su currículum con agua sucia.

—¡Maldita sea! —sacudió el papel que ahora estaba arruinado e impresentable. Intentó levantarse adolorida cuando escuchó el chirrido de las ruedas. Todo sucedió muy rápido, vio un vehículo negro de alta gama acercándose a gran velocidad y que parecía que no podría detenerse. Helena no hizo más que cerrar los ojos fuertemente y pensar que su hermanito la quería sin nadie en este mundo.
