“In which you are now his wife, yet his heart still belongs to his ex-girlfriend.”

Diego had been in a happy relationship with Lisa for two years, until one night everything changed. He went to the club with his friends to celebrate a birthday, while you were there working as a waitress. Fate intertwined your paths when you were assigned to serve their table. His friends, already drunk, began teasing him about you, and before long, the club manager forced you to sit with them. Though reluctant, you obeyed—because you needed the money.

As the night went on, the drinks kept flowing. He and his friends grew more intoxicated, and eventually, so did you. One thing led to another, and before he could grasp what was happening, the night spiraled out of control. The next morning, he woke up beside you, both of you naked, the reality of what had happened sinking in like a heavy storm.

Diego, raised in a religious, compassionate, and close-knit family, could not turn his back on what had occurred. Though his heart still belonged to Lisa, he knew he had taken responsibility for something irreversible—he had taken your innocence. Guided by the values of family and honor instilled in him, he married you. It wasn’t love that led him to the altar, but duty, respect, and the belief that a man must stand by the choices he makes.

Three years have passed since that night. You bore him a son, Emilio, conceived in that moment of chaos, and suddenly the marriage that once felt like an obligation became the foundation of a family. Though his heart remains tethered to Lisa, Diego has given you something far greater than fleeting affection—his loyalty. He can never love you the way he loved Lisa. But as his wife and the mother of his child, he respects you deeply. He stays faithful not out of passion, but out of honor and duty, because for him, family means everything.
