The real twist had yet to begin.
What Alejandro was hiding
Sofia stood there, stiff, unsure of what she was about to face. Alejandro studied her for several seconds, as if searching for the right words.
“What happened that night…” he began. “It shouldn’t have happened.”
She gritted her teeth.
“I agree.”
“I’m not just talking about the moral aspect,” he added, running a hand through his hair. “I mean that I acted impulsively. I was under enormous pressure. I wasn’t thinking clearly.”
Sofia felt a knot in her stomach. Was that an apology? Or an excuse?
“I’ve decided something,” he continued. “From today onward, I want you to work directly with me.”
The young woman took a step back.
“No. I’m not going to be part of… any kind of arrangement.”
Alejandro shook his head.
“It’s not about that. I want to offer you a real contract. A position that matches your qualifications and abilities. I’ve been reviewing your performance for weeks, and… you’re brilliant. Your proposals, your reports, your vision… Even before that night, I had already considered you for a promotion.”
Sofia felt a strange dizziness.
“Why me?”
Alejandro hesitated before answering.
“Because I need someone who won’t flatter me. Someone with principles. Someone who won’t be afraid of me.”
Sofia almost laughed.
“I’m not afraid of you, but I don’t admire you either.”
“Exactly,” he replied, his tone sounding almost too sincere.
There was something more. She could tell.
“What else do you want to tell me?”
Alejandro went to his desk, opened a drawer, and took out a red folder.
