Episode 1 · Valeria, Emilio, Thiago
Valeria walks down the hallway holding a letter, smiling on her way to Emilio's office. She stops outside the door and overhears Emilio talking with a friend. Emilio claims he does not like her and only plans to marry her for his parents. He even offers her to his friend. The friend walks out, comforts the crying Valeria, and leaves. Valeria dries her tears, enters the room, and faces Emilio's cold question.
Valeria walks toward Emilio's office holding a letter. Outside the door, she stops and hears Emilio tell a friend he feels nothing for her. He claims she threw herself at him, and Valeria breaks down in tears.
The friend storms out of the office in anger and finds Valeria weeping in the hallway. He reaches out, pats her shoulder gently to comfort her, and bluntly tells her that Emilio is not the right man for her.
Valeria gathers her composure outside the door and pushes through the glass entrance. Emilio sits behind his desk signing documents. He raises his head, looks at her with a detached expression, and asks what brought her there.
“If you like her, she's yours. She's the one throwing herself at me, anyway.”
“Take care of yourself. Emilio isn't for you.”
“Why are you here?”
Valeria steps into the office after crying in the hallway. Emilio looks up from his desk and asks why she is there, completely unaware that she heard his harsh remarks to his friend. Will Valeria confront him about what he said, or will she pretend she never heard his cruel confession?
