How are you doing? - feeling better?

- yes, already. - good.

- i'm glad. Carmen asked me to bring you your pill.

Oh, thank you very much. I thought claudia would be here with you.

No, she's talking to diego right now. Things are really bad between them.

I think my brother is going to break up with her. Look.

Claudia, i want us to talk because i feel that nothing is the same between us anymore. You mean a lot to me and i don't want to hurt you.

And no matter how much i try, things don't get better. You and i are not the same as before.

Obviously, we're not the same, silly. We've been together since high school, we're growing up together.

Because that's what you mean, right? Yes, partly.

What i want to tell you is that what we had was incredible, truly. And you will always be super important to me.

But i'm not in love with you anymore. Are you breaking up with me?

Yes, claudia. And this time, there's no turning back.

What do you mean flores fired you? Yes, he just did.

And look, i get it. Ever since i started working here, all i've done is neglect my work at the magazine.

I let the award slip away. That was the last straw.

It was obvious i was going to. That award, whether you received it or not, validates the great journalist you are.

Even if they are women's items, i don't care. What am i here?

An employee. And the worst of all, besides, because i don't even know how to iron a shirt.

Look, you are here for something much more important than ironing shirts. You are here for your daughter.

You'd love to be in facundo's place right now, wouldn't you? They're going to hear you.

Well, but i see you and i confirm again that i had never seen you like this for a woman. - you're in love, aren't you?

- no, man. Can you shut up, please.

You know? What she has with facundo isn't that serious.

You can give him a fight, brother. Don't do silly things.

Oh, well. Don't dishonor the family name.

Let it not be said that a navarro threw in the towel on the seduction track. No.

Consuelo's heart is taken, can't you see? She's with facundo, period.

And i'm with kassandra. Well, but she doesn't call you "boss" anymore.

Can you stop? Look, what's happening to me is that i'm confused.

That's it, i'm confused. But i'm going to take back control.

I have to focus on luis's children, on moving the company forward, on improving my relationship with kassandra. That's it, i have to start seeing consuelo for what she is, a very valuable employee of this house.

But nothing more. What?

And how did you two meet? In my tai chi classes.

When i injured my ankle, aurelio was kind enough to take me to your house. How nice, aurelio.

Thank you very much. With pleasure.

Nothing to thank for. It was impossible to leave such a beautiful woman like isaura in trouble.

Well, i'll leave you, i don't want to bother anyone. - no.

Please. I'm the one leaving.

Oh, no. So soon.

Well, i have things to do, but we'll talk tomorrow. - excuse me.

- go ahead. Good night.

Mom, can you explain what this means? From what neighborhood do you get your suitors?

Those kinds of men have taken fortunes from you. That's why we don't have money.

But our luck is going to change very soon, as soon as you manage to become the wife of joaquín navarro. To top it off, he told me he no longer wants us to live together.

He told me this morning that he wants us to wait a while. Oh, no, honey.

It can't be. Mom, what did you expect?

That he would come to beg me on his knees to come back? Well, you were wrong.

The thing is, claudia is a sweetheart, but lately she's been very possessive with diego. Yeah, he's her first boyfriend, right?

Yes. I used to think they would be together forever, that they were the ideal couple.

The thing is, diego, i don't know, i feel like he's mixing everything up with my parents' stuff. Finishing open high school, working at the company, fighting with joaquín every day.

Yes, a lot of things have piled up for him. That's why i try to understand him, you know?

What would be terrible is if he left claudia for another girl, don't you think? He broke up with me!

Diego broke up with me! No, no, no, no, no, look.

Cry, my friend, cry all you want. Close the door, please.

Dad! Dad!

What's wrong? What's wrong?

Let's go, i beg you. Let's go now.

- where to? - i don't know, but i want to leave.

Hold on, hold on, hold on. What?

What happened? Where do you want to go?

Nothing, nothing happened, but i want to leave. I don't feel comfortable, there are too many of us in this house.

- let's go. - okay, okay, okay.

Look, i understand you, but we are here for our safety, daughter. So we are not going anywhere.

Or what about you, diego? What do you think?

Me? This is the best place for us to be, right?

No, it's fine. We're staying.

You've convinced me. I'm going to sleep.

I convinced you? Just like that?

Yes. How?

Just like that? So fast?

Good night, dad. Well, good night.

Women, a little fickle. And what's with you?

Why that face? - me?

- yes. No, nothing.

Well, i broke up with my girlfriend. You?

The important thing is that you were honest with her and with yourself. Anyway, you're very young, surely a girl will come along who will steal that heart of yours.

No. Don't tell me there's someone else.

Oh, there isn't anymore, then. No, there isn't.

For now. Or what?

What do you mean they fired you from the magazine, my dear? I saw it coming.

Since i started working at my daughter's house, i neglected my writing. Forgive me, but no.

You never stopped sending your notes. I would know, as many nights i saw your light on until very late, staying up late to deliver them.

Anyway, i wasn't going to the office anymore. And i left him stranded there, in the middle of the awards ceremony.

I left and didn't say anything to him. You had no other choice.

Your little daughter was sick, you had to be by her side. - flores doesn't know that.

Oh, my dear, how much it pains me that all this is happening to you. Don't believe it, on the one hand, i even feel calm.

Really? Yes, because flores was pressuring me all the time to write the article about joaquín navarro and luis miranda.

And i didn't say i infiltrated that house because i was going to write the report. And i couldn't find another excuse, there was nothing left to invent to escape that.

So, well, one less lie, right? Out of so many.

One less. Engineer cervera, do you need anything?

Yes, yes, yes. Stop making such stupid decisions like firing verónica.

She's the only journalist worth anything in your crappy magazine. Oh, really?

And since when so much concern? You barely know each other.

I introduced you myself in my office, didn't i? We're dating.

But i'm not here to talk about feelings, but about opportunities. What do you mean?

Do you want to position your magazine? Are you dying to have a scandal that puts you on everyone's lips?

That article about luis miranda could be the hit you're waiting for. You refused to collaborate with me, and now what?

However, here i am. Look, veronica has been infiltrated there for weeks, in the miranda's house.

She hasn't given me a single paragraph, nothing, not even a letter, really. Well, because the secrets, the darkest ones, the dirtiest ones, are not there in that house.

No? But in the company where i am it's very different.

Millionaire debts, an extramarital affair, industrial espionage. And that's just the tip of the iceberg, and everything, everything is about luis miranda.

If you wanted an infiltrator in the company, here i am, with absolute discretion. Of course, because my neck is on the line.

No one, not even verónica, can know that we had this conversation. And much less that you and i, well, we could work together to reveal the truth about miranda.

Because that article is going to be a mortal blow for joaquín navarro. Consuelo was there playing the victim with joaquín, while she held his hands and looked at him as if he were the last man on earth.

What do you want to do, daughter? Sweep her out with a broom?

No, no, no, but i want to know everything about her. Where she comes from, who she's been with, what she's hiding.

Because she's not that perfect, nobody is. Everyone hides something.

Surely there's something in her past that i can use. I don't know, a crack, a flaw, a sin, whatever it is.

And what if you don't find anything? Well, i'll invent it.

But i promise you i'm going to make sure to destroy that angelic image that joaquín has of her. Joaquín has of her.

Whatever it takes. Don't think about the award verónica let slip, flores.

Better think about what could come when this exclusive is published. Your magazine would gain very important prestige.

Alright, let's talk. When verónica gets her job back, with a good salary increase and a sincere apology from you, until then, you and i will sit down and talk.

Under my terms, of course. Your terms?

What does that mean? That i set the rules and you publish the story i want to be told.

Understood? I didn't raise a mediocre and second-best son.

I didn't bring you into the world for that! Come on, oh!

There she goes, skinny. Almost there, skinny.

Almost there. One, two, three.

Let's go. Go for it.

Go for it. Cover him.

Don't laugh. Wait, wait.

Come on. Lawyer.

May i know what you're doing? I'm packing my things.

What you did to me is unforgivable, verónica. I know, i really understand.

I don't even have a way to justify myself. I left the awards ceremony because i had an emergency.

And i know it's not right, that i should have told you something, at least. I'm very sorry.

You know? I don't recognize you.

Where is the journalist with that hunger to succeed? You came here when you wanted, but you had to be there.

I know, i understand. Look.

For the years we've worked together, i'm going to give you one more chance. One.

Are you serious? But you have to come to the office for at least a couple of hours every day.

I don't know if i'll be able to. I mean, i'll try, i'll attempt.

No, no, no, not try. I need you to be here.

And i want three notes a week. Three.

Is that clear? Last chance, veronica.

Don't waste it. Do you feel well enough to go to the race?

- yes, much better. - but you have classes.

Let me skip, please. I can't miss the race, please, godfather, come on.

- i don't know, i don't know. - we're all going to the race.

Okay, yes, and you're going to school. Why?

Because your sister is a big fan of motorcycles. But you, young lady, all you want is an excuse to skip classes.

Oh, it's unfair. I'm sorry if it's unfair.

Please, let's have breakfast. Do you know anything about diego?

Is he up yet? I don't know, godfather, but don't tell him anything today.

I don't think he's going to be in a good mood. As usual.

No, no, no, but this time it's different. My brother just broke up with clau.

Shouldn't you be at high school? No, i'm not going because you ruined the little social life i had.

Oh, for god's sake, honey, don't be so dramatic. I'm not exaggerating, now i'm the daughter of lady blackmail.

Okay, my love, that's enough, we're not going to fight anymore, okay? Oh, yeah, how easy, right?

After everything you did to me. Honey, i just wanted you to start appreciating what i give you with so much effort.

I didn't ask you for anything, okay? I didn't ask you for anything.

Now here i am, i'm your daughter and you have to take responsibility. But i don't matter to you at all.

My love, no, don't say that, of course you matter to me. No, i don't matter to you, i don't matter to diego, i don't matter to anyone.

Let's see, what's going on with diego now? He left me, he told me he doesn't love me anymore.

You can be happy now, i'm without a boyfriend and now you're going to have me here all the time working like your slave. Come on, don't say it like that, claudia, please.

If you didn't want to continue with claudia, why did you take a break? It's just, vale, it's not that easy.

No, well, i know it's not easy, but clau has been having a really hard time, diego. Why did you make her hope for another chance if you already knew that it wasn't going to work out?

- okay, okay, right? I don't want to talk about this with you anymore.

Okay, oh, hello majo, good morning. Sorry you caught us in this.

No, no, no, it's fine. Would you like some coffee?

Yes, i'll have one, thanks. One last thing, diego, claudia is...

Your bestie? Your best friend?

Yeah, i get it, okay, the topic is closed. Well, it's better that you understand, because claudia will continue coming to this house and i don't want her to feel uncomfortable when she's here.

Okay. Good morning.

Good morning, i thought you had already left. Well, actually i had left, but i forgot my purse.

Excuse me. Come in, come in.

Miss valeria woke up much better today, didn't she? Yes, in fact, she's going to accompany me to the race, she's very excited.

Well, good luck, i hope you become champions. Thank you very much, consuelo.

Alright, well, now i'm leaving. Excuse me.

Go ahead. What's wrong with you?

What's wrong with you? You can't fall in love with this man, what's wrong with you?

No, miss, no, beautiful, no, beautiful, no. You have to get this woman out of your head, no matter what.

Dad. You should already be on the track.

Yes, i'm coming, but we need to talk. You're going to be late.

Dad, please, let's talk. After the trials, you didn't want to talk to me, and now you don't either.

Hugo beat me by just a few tenths. Yes, it's clear you were missing a few tenths to be number one.

The mistake was mine, for thinking you were prepared. No, it's not like that.

Maybe your mom is right, huh? This isn't for you.

Look, for me to say your mom is right, imagine that. Maybe i was wrong.

Maybe life has something else prepared for you, another destiny, i don't know. You can dedicate yourself to selling insurance, as a cashier in a bank.

There are many trades you can learn. What's more, you can end up as a waiter, like your half-sister.

That's good. You'd help your mother at the bar.

Dad, this is what i want to do. When someone truly wants something, they give one hundred percent to their talent.

Aren't you doing it? Dad, i give you my word that...

Well, dedicate yourself. Dedicate yourself to working in a team, to being the mediocre person you are.

Until life shows you another path. But yes, yes, be a good number two.

Now get out on the track. Get out!

How's that engine doing? For you, i'd break my diet and eat the whole dessert.

The whole dessert. What are you doing here, nayeli?

You see. Someone who wants to make the man of her dreams feel good.

And well... Here i am.

Ready to cheer my heart out. The truth is, i'm very nervous, nayeli.

I can imagine. But you just remember.

You were born for this. Run with all your heart.

Nayeli! What are you doing here?

Hello. Just watching with one eye because the other this handsome guy already stole it.

I'm the champion's real girlfriend. Oh, girlfriend!

Wow, he kept that a secret, huh? Hey, nayeli, but he can't be here.

You're distracting him, huh? Go to the stands, please.

Alright. I'm leaving.

Don't forget. Run with your heart.

So, your girlfriend, huh? More or less, but yes.

Alright, tell me. How do you feel?

Are you ready for the race? I'm not going to lie to you, marcos.

Honestly, i'm really nervous. In the trials, i was on fire, but...

But the race itself is another thing. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

You're the best, aren't you? You're a bullet on that bike.

You're going to win, huh? It's in your blood.

But we also have to see how the bikes are doing in olivos, which are our bikes. Those filthy thieves.

Hey, hey, hey, forget about them, huh? Look, they might have the best machines, yes.

But they don't have a rider like you, huh? You're going to win, huh?

Carmen, good morning. Good morning.

I come in peace. Look, i brought these chocolates.

They're belgian. Oh, you don't know how relieved i am to know that...

That she's not mad at me. With you?

No, man, not at all. I know the isaura effect very well.

My mom is capable of driving anyone crazy, you know? I'm so sorry that things ended up this way.

I hope that you and mr. Joaquín can fix things so that you can return to this, your home.

Yes, thank you very much. We are trying.

Especially for the kids, because they need a lot of our love, our support. If you'll allow me a piece of advice, don't allow your mother to meddle again.

Well, my mom has too much free time, but that's about to change now that she's starting a new romance. Oh, don't tell me.

The man who brought you when you got hurt. Aurelio.

That one, that's him. Consuelo!

What did you do? Uh, sorry, sorry.

Oh, how careless. I'll clean it up now, okay?

- easy, easy. - where is joaquín?

In the office. Very well.

I'm going to see him. Offer consuelo one of the chocolates, because we have to thank her for everything she does for this house.

Consuelo. Consuelo.

Oh, consuelo. You'd love to be in facundo's place...

They're going to hear you. - - yes.

Good morning, joaquín. Look, you have to sign these papers and then instead of making you go to the office, it's better i brought them.

That way you can go straight to the race. Very good idea, kassandra.

Thank you. And how about it?

Anxious for the race? Somewhat, but i try to focus my thoughts on the positive.

I trust our drivers. I know hugo and eleazar are ready.

And you? How are you?

Good, good, but i miss you. We need to find a moment to talk about us.

Yes, there will be time, now we have to focus and put all our energy into the race that we have to win. That's right.

We need to get new sponsors, investors. The company is still on the ropes and this victory is essential.

Yes, no, look, i say don't worry. Everything will be fine because you are already a winner.

Joaquín, can i steal a minute? Our son should come before everything, facundo.

Eleazar is first for me. So, before your number one pilot project.

Open your eyes. Your son is devastated by your demands.

Demands? What demands?

I don't tell him anything, i just advise him, i support him. He feels like he let you down, he's very affected, understand that.

Don't soften the world for him anymore, woman. Let him learn that life is hard, it's difficult and above all competitive.

I'm not worried that he has to get on a motorcycle with the level of demand of your... Keep going on and on about demands, enough already.

Better demand that your daughter treat you with dignity. You who feel like such a good mother and your daughter despises you.

Think better before giving me lessons on parenting. I already made the transfer for the bail payment.

Oh, well, very good, huh? Listen, what about my fees?

When my niece's mother is free and without any charges against her, we'll cover your fees, counselor. Well, with the help of saint jude as of today, with the penal code in hand, i'm going to prove the innocence of olguita, huh?

Oh, by the way, what a great woman, right? I mean, it's a shame she didn't find the right man.

And i'm not just saying it for you, but also for this borja guy, who, by the way, you know? International police are already looking for him.

And about the guys who grabbed my brother, is anything known? Well, nothing concrete, but you know what?

I'm praying hard that soon the saints will help us and we'll catch them, huh? Well, for now, i'll take my leave, mr.

And mrs. Navarro, huh?

Thank you very much and infinite blessings. Thank you.

And please, don't forget about my fees, huh? - we already agreed.

- don't play dumb. - no.

- see you, goodbye. Where did you find him?

I told you, i told you it's what was available, but he's not doing a bad job, right? - that makes me happy.

I'm leaving, i don't want to be late for the race. You stay here with majo until everything calms down a bit.

Yes. Hey, joaquín, and thanks, really, thank you very much for all the support.

Man. Do you want us to review the strategy?

No need, i already know what i have to do. Okay, but i'll keep it in mind.

I'll start at the front as the lead rider. Your job is to guard my line, cover me if someone comes from the outside.

If a bike comes hard, be a shadow. The track is mine, but you shield it.

If we do it well, we win first and second. Me first and you second.

Yes, as a team. Hello, my sweet boy.

How did it go? Good, but my stomach is rumbling a lot, mom.

I'm hungry. Go change and wash your hands, okay?

- okay. - oh, no, no, wait.

Better go to the beauty salon and tell nayeli to come eat. Well, she's not here.

She went to the races to cheer on her champion, the driver. Didn't she tell you?

No, no, no. Well, go, go do what i told you.

Mamita chalo, what happened? It's just that nayeli went to see her boyfriend, hugo, at the motorcycle races.

And well, i got a little nervous. Won't she run into your dad?

Oh, my god, yes. Yes.

Joaquín and my daughter are there. Oh, my god.

I hope nayeli doesn't do anything reckless. We have two first-class pilots.

So no matter how much olivos stole an idea from us, today we are going to show them what teamwork is. And that races are won by the riders, not the bikes, guys.

- we came to win! - yes!

I hope you don't mind that i invited my cousin to watch the race with us. And also, since she's hugo's girlfriend.

Hugo's girlfriend? Well, nice to meet you and welcome.

Nayeli pérez garcía, at your service and god's. Thank you, likewise.

She's aunt consuelo's daughter, romina's mother's sister. Romina's mother's sister.

Is your mom named consuelo? I just can't believe it.

Of course, nayeli, nice to meet you. Yes, my mom works for you.

She's told me a lot about your boss. It's incredible, what a small world.

Look, look who we have here. Our consuelo's daughter.

No, don't ask me to calm down. Trust nayeli, my daughter.

My girl is very clever, she won't make a mistake. It's not that i don't trust her.

It's just that everything is too complicated. She might not only meet joaquín and valeria.

Facundo will also be there. What if she runs into romina and marcos?

They're there, because they work there. And what's the problem with that?

That romina and her husband know that i'm dating facundo. But joaquín and valeria think he's dating consuelo, not some verónica.

Mom chelo, any mistake, any, and everything will fall apart. Well, but, but facundo has also shown you that he's on his toes.

He's already saved you from getting caught other times. Yes, yes, yes, i'm going to call him so he can be prepared.

Yes, my dear. I'll also call nayeli right now so she can be very sharp.

I don't know how i'm going to finish writing my article with these nerves. Didn't your boss fire you from the magazine?

Flores gave me another chance, but now he's demanding three articles a week from me. My dear, how are you going to manage so many if you barely sleep?

For valeria, my daughter is my engine, she is my strength, and everything i do is for her. Hey, i didn't know your mom was working at joaquín's house.

Well yes, yes, my dear mother has spent her whole life breaking her back cleaning other people's houses. And proudly so.

Well, now it's his turn to earn a living there with your boss, right? - that's right, that's right.

Okay, i'll leave nayeli with you, okay? I'll be right back.

Yes, marco, don't worry. Oh, how much she's told us about you, consuelo.

And i heard you were very sick, but i'm glad to see you're well now. Oh, yes, yes, it's just that one thinks one has a stomach of steel and, no, tacos hit me like an atomic bomb.

Nayeli, it's so nice to meet you, huh? Your mom is very special to us and she's part of my family.

Oh, wow, that's so nice of you to say. My mommy appreciates you too, huh?

- thank you. - and you, even more so.

You're valeria, right? - has he told you about me?

- a lot. I even feel like i already know you, you see.

But also my handsome huguito, my precious darling, well, he always talks to me about his best friend, about vale doing this, about vale doing that, and well, i finally got to meet you. Same here, nayeli.

I'm just going to say hi to hugo before the race starts. - do you want to come with me?

- you bet, right? That way i can give him your booming good luck kiss.

Perfect. Just don't distract him too much, please, i need them very focused.

Nayeli. - what a surprise!

- hello. Oh, of course, you two know each other.

Well, of course, he's the heartthrob... Of the most beautiful woman in the world.

Give me a hug. Don't mention veronica, i'll explain later.

I'm not clueless, i already know everything. Well, then, let's go see hugo, shall we?

- let's go. - go ahead.

They're turning out very well. Hugo, we were looking for you.

Oh, just look at my champion. He's like chocolate, i crave him all the time.

Sweetie, vale. Your girlfriend and i came to say hello to you before the race.

Have your nerves calmed down, my handsome man? Well, well, i'm getting there.

Everything is going to go great. Besides, my godfather showed me the times from the practice.

They were excellent. Yes, you are the best driver.

You're going to nail it as always. It's my mom.

Oh, say hello to her for me. Tell her you're with us now.

Yes, yes, i'll tell her. Well, i don't wish you luck, because you already have it.

You won the lottery with this girlfriend who adores you. Didn't you say you didn't have a girlfriend?

Well, she just said yes to me. I'm very happy for you, hugo.

Also, her mom is super cool. You have the best mother-in-law.

And nayeli seems just as lovely. Oh, sweetie, why didn't you tell me you were going to the races?

You have me and your cousin verito dying of nerves. Don't worry, mom.

Everything under control. I just came to cheer on my man.

How could i not come knowing that the love of my life is racing today? Look, nayeli, understand me.

It's not just about you. This could cost verito dearly.

Any false step and they'll discover her. I know, i know.

But i won't make a mistake, i promise you. I'm very clear about what i have to say and what i have to keep quiet about.

For what you love most, my dear. Prevent marcos from mentioning that facundo is dating verónica.

Because everyone else thinks his girlfriend is consuelo. Trust your girl, mom.

Give me your blessing. May the virgin mary be with you.
