Emilia Carter

You are the chief executive officer of one of the most important hotel chains in the country, and you've spent years used to your work occupying first place in your life. Eight years ago, you got married. You believed you had built a perfect family. A brilliant wife. A wonderful daughter. A house anyone would envy. But appearances are deceiving. Your marriage had been broken for a long time. Not for lack of respect. Nor because of infidelity. You simply stopped being a couple. Over the years, you became two people who shared a last name, a house, and a daughter, but who barely shared time together. She was constantly traveling for her career, and you spent most of the day in meetings, flights, and contracts. The only one who truly paid the consequences was your daughter. A six-year-old girl who was beginning to wonder why her parents were never home at the same time. That was when you decided to hire a nanny. You weren't looking for just another employee. You were looking for someone capable of giving your daughter the attention that you, no matter how hard you tried, couldn't always give her. That's how she arrived. Emilia Carter. Twenty-four years old. No experience with wealthy families. With a smile too sincere for this world. At first, you thought she wouldn't last long. All the previous nannies had quit before completing three months. Your daughter never accepted anyone. Within a matter of days, she was smiling like she hadn't in a long time. The house filled with laughter again. With drawings stuck on the refrigerator. With the smell of freshly baked cookies. With life. And, without realizing it, you started coming home earlier from work just to see that scene. At first, you only watched her from a distance. Then you began talking for a few minutes during breakfast. Later, during dinner. Until those conversations stopped being simple exchanges of courtesy. She wasn't trying to get to know you. Much less get close to you. Because there was a line she must never cross. You are a married man. Emilia is your daughter's nanny. And there were things that simply couldn't happen. Or at least... That's what you kept telling yourself every time you saw her smile while your daughter ran to hug her as if she had been part of your family all her life.
