Introduction

Vincent Hastings, el despiadado multimillonario y el rey de la mafia más temible de Nueva York. Él es el jefe, puede conseguir todo lo que quiera, ya sea con las manos desnudas o por la fuerza. Al igual que obligó a Sophie Laurens, la hija menor de Albert Laurens, uno de los hombres más ricos de Nueva York que tenía un acuerdo con Vincent, a que una de sus hijas se casara con él. De buena gana le ofreció a su hija menor, sin importarle las consecuencias ni el futuro de Sophie.

Chapter 1

Perspectiva de Sophie

—Entonces, ¿qué te hace pensar que realmente te aceptaríamos como profesora a tiempo parcial aquí en nuestra Universidad? —me preguntó uno de los entrevistadores.

Con las manos temblorosas, respiré hondo y la enfrenté con confianza, al menos esa es mi definición de confianza. Luego abrí la boca—. En realidad... eh... soy una estudiante de sobresaliente desde el jardín de infancia hasta ahora. Y también estoy compitiendo por el primer puesto en nuestra clase. Me gustan mucho los niños y me encanta enseñarles...

Puedes hacerlo, Sophie. No necesitas ponerte nerviosa, puedes hacerlo, chica.

La mujer y el hombre a su lado se miraron y asintieron—. Entonces, ¿Laurens es tu apellido? ¿Tienes alguna relación con el Sr. Albert Laurens?

—Sí, es mi padre.

Ambos abrieron los ojos al escuchar lo que acababa de decir. Rápidamente se levantaron y me hicieron una reverencia—. B-Buenos días, señorita Laurens.

—N-No, no tienen que ser tan amables conmigo. Solo soy una solicitante aquí, y solo quiero saber si me aceptan —les pregunté con los dedos cruzados y el corazón latiendo tan fuerte que parecía que iba a salirse de mi pecho en ese momento.

—¡Por supuesto, señorita Laurens! ¡Está aceptada! ¡Puede empezar a enseñar en nuestra escuela cuando quiera!

—¿D-De verdad?! ¡Oh, muchas gracias, no saben cuánto significa esto para mí, muchas gracias!

—D-De nada, señorita Laurens, también es un honor para nosotros tenerla aquí en nuestra institución.

Estaba saltando de entusiasmo tan pronto como salí de esa sala. Enseñar a los niños ha sido mi sueño desde que era niña, también era el sueño de mi madre para mí, antes de que muriera. ¡Y ahora ya se ha hecho realidad! Estoy segura de que ella está muy feliz por mí. Aunque creo que la única razón por la que me aceptaron fue por mi apellido, Laurens. Mi padre, Albert Laurens, es conocido como uno de los hombres más ricos aquí en la ciudad de Nueva York. Pero eso no significa que yo sea rica también. Todo lo que él tiene, realmente no me pertenece. Solo soy su hija con una de sus sirvientas con quien tuvo una aventura de una noche, aunque ya tenía esposa.

Temiendo que los padres de papá se enojaran y lo echaran de la familia, mamá decidió dejar la mansión y escapar para esconderme de ellos. Vivió en un lugar donde pensó que nadie podría encontrarla, pero estaba equivocada, porque mis abuelos son tan ricos que pueden contratar a cualquiera solo para localizarla. Me llevaron lejos de mi madre, escapé de su casa cuando tenía diez años y volví con mi madre, pero me llevaron de nuevo. Mamá también me dijo que me quedara en la casa de mi padre. Luego, un día, tuvo un ataque al corazón y murió. Fui a su entierro, sola.

Hasta entonces, vivía en la casa de mi padre. Su enorme mansión que podría albergar a cien familias. Si piensas que llevo una vida rica y feliz porque soy una Laurens, estás completamente equivocado, no me tratan como a uno de ellos de todas formas. Hago todas las cosas que hacen las sirvientas: los sirvo, lavo su ropa, traigo sus prendas, llevo sus bolsas, riego las plantas, limpio las ventanas, los pisos, todo. Esa es la consecuencia de vivir en su casa.

—Oye, Sophie, ¿dónde demonios te has metido otra vez? —me preguntó Samantha tan pronto como entré en la mansión.

—Solicité un trabajo —respondí simplemente.

Samantha es la hija mayor de mi padre y su esposa, su primera y legítima esposa. Tienen dos hijas y un hijo en total, que por supuesto, son mucho mayores que yo.

—¿Un trabajo? ¿Por qué? ¿Aún necesitas dinero si papá ya te da una mesada?

—No se trata del dinero, realmente quiero enseñar a los niños desde siempre.

Ella solo puso los ojos en blanco—. Oh, lo que sea, haz lo que quieras, solo no olvides hacer mis tareas. Mañana es la fecha límite de todas ellas.

—Está bien.

—¡Oye, Sophie! —ahí va Sera, la segunda hija mayor de mi padre—. Compra todo esto, ¿vale? Lo necesito para mi escuela mañana, y también, no olvides ir a la casa de Harold y decirle que ya estoy rompiendo con él.

Mis ojos se abrieron de par en par mientras la miraba con confusión—. ¿Por qué no rompes con él en persona?

—¡Cállate! ¡Solo díselo! ¡No quiero perder mi tiempo con su drama otra vez!

Sera tiene la costumbre de salir con diferentes chicos en su escuela, y luego romper con ellos después de una semana, pero lo peor es que soy yo quien tiene que hablar con sus novios y decirles que ella quiere romper. Siempre tengo que inventar historias y encontrar posibles razones por las que ella quiere romper. Solo reprimí un suspiro y estaba a punto de ir a mi habitación y cambiarme de ropa cuando de repente vi a Sebastián caminando hacia mí con una sonrisa en su rostro.

—¡Seb!

—¡Sophie! ¡Tienes que escuchar esta nueva canción que compuse! —dijo, entusiasmado. Seb es dos años mayor que yo y realmente ama la música, de todos los hermanos que tengo, es con quien más cercana soy.

—Está bien, solo me cambiaré de ropa y luego la escucharemos, ¿vale?

—¡Vale! Te esperaré en mi estudio.

—¡Vale! —finalmente abrí la puerta de mi habitación y entré con una sonrisa en mi rostro.
