Wendy felt her heart drop as the weight of Rosalie's words hit her. Stunned to silence, she fixated her gaze on Rosalie, disbelief coursing through her as her pulse quickened. As she locked eyes with Rosalie's smug expression, her heart twisted with despair even further. How could this be? Quickly diverting her gaze, Wendy scanned the room, hoping to find any signs that would validate or refute Rosalie's claims. To her astonishment, she noticed that very few or no persons in the restaurant resembled law enforcement. Only a handful of couples occupied the far side of the room, leaving Wendy puzzled. She couldn't fathom what was happening. If Rosalie had claimed she was surrounded, then how come no cops were in the room with them? Was Rosalie deceiving her? She questioned inwardly, her racing her heart slowly calming. Perhaps this was merely a ploy from Rosalie to instill fear in her.With that thought, Wendy scoffed, redirecting her attention back to Rosalie. "You certainly have a se
"Baby, are you certain it's alright for you to join me? I mean, I'll be okay if you say you can't. Please, baby, I don't know what I'd do if..." Leonardo inquired, his concern evident in his tone. He struggled to express his apprehensions when Hayley gently interrupted him, cutting him off."Hey, Hey, it's okay," she reassured him, cradling his face as she gazed into his eyes. Leonardo felt the intensity of her gaze. "I’ll be fine, I promise. We’ll get through this together; you don’t need to worry about me.""But I still have my doubts, mi reina," he replied in a concerned whisper."I appreciate your concern, Leonardo, and I love that you care about me. But I'm reassuring you now that everything will be alright. And I'm coming with you. Daisy is my daughter too," she said, her flickering between his but Leonardo simply exhaled softly."We'll get through this together, okay?" She added before lifting herself slightly to kiss his lips softly. Just as she began to pull away, Leonardo t
Wendy scrutinized Rosalie intently as she continued yapping about her. She had already anticipated Rosalie's every action and was merely biding her time for the perfect opportunity to make her own move. The need to escape surged within her. Wendy was acutely aware of an unobtrusive exit in the restaurant that could facilitate her escape without attracting the attention of the cops. However, she sensed the scrutiny of the officers observing her from a distance, making her escape seem somewhat implausible. Nonetheless, she remained undeterred. Her need for freedom was paramount, and nothing would stand in her way; not Rosalie, not the police. If it came to it, she was prepared to resort to drastic measures, even if it meant using a firearm in broad daylight. She didn't care anymore."You know, Owen mentioned that you've always had a wild side, but I never imagined it would be like this..." Rosalie's words echoed in Wendy's mind at the mention of her past lover.Annoyance surged within
Wendy experienced a complex mix of satisfaction and anxiety as she looked at Rosalie's motionless body sprawled on the ground. Although Rosalie’s face was turned away from her, the way she lay lifeless indicated the severity of the gunshot wound. It was possible that it had claimed her life. Upon realizing this, a dark smile spread across Wendy's face as she reveled in the knowledge that she had brought Rosalie down, and ironically, Rosalie would never witness her arrest. Wendy had long lost interest in the prospect of being apprehended. She was filled with joy at that moment, realizing she had taken her greatest enemy down. She couldn't be happier. A sinister chuckle escaped her lips as she shifted her gaze to the ceiling, a wave of exhilaration enveloping her as she laughed out wickedly. "Cuff her now," one of the officers instructed, signaling to his partner. Wendy continued chuckling wickedly, relishing her triumph. Just then, an officer lifted her from the ground and secured
The black SUV carrying Leonardo and the others approached the warehouse discreetly, stopping a few miles away on the outskirts of town. This was the location where Daisy was being held captive by Lillian.Before exiting the vehicle, Leonardo turned to Elliot to relay instructions before directing his gaze to the two women in the back seat."Listen, whoever reaches Daisy first must come back to the car and leave without delay. I’ll handle everything else, understood? If either of you finds her first..." he urged, glancing between them for emphasis.Hayley and Emily nodded in acknowledgment. "Noted," Emily responded."Okay," Leonardo said with a sigh as he shifted his attention. He retrieved his iPad and turned it towards the women, displaying footage from the device. "Look here; the warehouse has two rooms. I suspect this is where she’s being held. We need to be cautious, as Lillian may be nearby..."Hayley shook her head while examining the video. "I disagree. Caution alone won’t le
"What are you doing here? Wasn't your meeting with Wendy scheduled for now?" Lillian finally asked, still reeling from the surprise.Hayley shrugged dismissively, her gaze icy as it locked onto Lillian. "I asked you a question, Lily... Where is my daughter?" She repeated, disregarding Lilian's shock."How did you manage to find this place?" Lillian retorted, her eyes darting between Hayley. She was baffled by how Hayley had tracked her down; Wendy had assured her it was impossible for anyone to discover their location. So how did this happen? The tension between the two women was palpable, filled with deep-seated resentment and animosity.While Hayley was trying to buy time for Leonardo and Emily to rescue Daisy, she found it increasingly difficult to tolerate Lillian's presence. Nonetheless, she was intrigued by Lilian's appearance. From a distance, one might mistake them for sisters, given their strikingly similar features.Both women were blondes with striking blue eyes that reflec
Leonardo and Emily headed towards the warehouse after parting ways with Hayley, choosing a different path that would lead them to the room where Daisy was being held.As they passed through the dilapidated mechanic shop, Leonardo felt a surge of conflicting emotions; mixed feelings of excitement and anxiety. While he was eager to reunite with his daughter, he was apprehensive about Hayley's current encounter with Lillian as part of their plan.His mind raced with worry about what might be happening at that very moment. What if Lillian had a weapon aimed at Hayley's face? The thought sent a chill through him, causing him to pause in his tracks, anxiety gnawing at his insides.He contemplated turning back to find Hayley, but a voice broke through his turmoil."Come on, Leonardo. Hayley will be fine. You need to have faith in her," Emily urged, recognizing the tension in his posture. She understood his concern, especially given the precarious situation that had been created by Wendy and
"Daddy!" Daisy wanted to shout, but Leonardo quickly signaled for her to remain quiet. “Shh, baby, please be quiet,” he urged gently.Daisy nodded in agreement, her excitement bubbling beneath the surface at the sight of him. Leonardo offered her a warm smile before leaning down to kiss her temples. Aware that time was of the essence, he swiftly stood up, moved around the chair, and began to untie her until she was finally freed.As soon as she was released, Daisy leaped up and rushed to wrap her arms around her father’s legs. “Daddy, I missed you!” she exclaimed, her small hands clinging tightly.Leonardo felt a sharp pang in his heart as he looked down at her. He knelt down and lifted her into his arms, cradling her close. “I’m so sorry, baby. I’m so sorry,” he said, filled with remorse, before embracing her tightly, a single tear of joy escaping down his cheek.They held each other for a brief moment until Leonardo was reminded that their time was running out. “How dare you!” a

Later that afternoon, three hours into the event, Hayley made her way to the parking lot where her car was situated. She had excused herself from the guests and Leonardo, explaining that she needed to visit someone. That someone, of course, was Adrian.Since her conversation with Emily earlier, she had been feeling increasingly unsettled. A myriad of thoughts and unanswered questions weighed heavily on her mind, leaving her feeling guilty and heartbroken as she reflected on Adrian's attitude towards her. Although she had intended to see him after the event, her impatience grew overwhelming; she could no longer wait. She needed to speak with him, to personally apologize for the past, and to invite him to the grand opening of her second company in two weeks since he hadn't made it to this one nor her wedding, a month ago. After asking Emily for Adrian's whereabouts, Hayley resolved to visit him at his office right after delivering her keynote address. With that, she made her way toward
[TWO MONTHS LATER ] "Cheers!" the crowd joyfully exclaimed as Hayley cut the red ribbon. A broad smile illuminated Hayley's face as she wielded the scissors to sever the ribbon. "Congratulations, Nina!" several guests called out, their applause filling the air, evidence of their excitement.That afternoon, Hayley couldn't hide her radiant smile as she took in her surroundings, her eyes roaming the place. She marveled at the impressive building before her, topped with a striking black sign that read 'NINA's ARTISTRY AVENUE,' still in awe that it truly belonged to her.But then again, it was the grand opening of her newly established company, and she was surrounded by distinguished guests, billionaires, and affluent investors eager to explore partnership opportunities with her enterprise. Hayley was brimming with immense joy. Upon the cutting of the ribbon, the guests went inside to survey the building, and each of her artworks that were in it. They were served a variety of drinks
The announcement of Hayley and Leonardo's engagement made headlines just two weeks following the proposal, as they eagerly began planning their extravagant wedding celebration. Leonardo was determined to marry within a month, expressing his impatience to officially welcome Hayley as his lawfully wedded wife once again. Images of the couple flooded the Internet, captivating fans and followers alike. Their connection had grown significantly stronger now that past issues were resolved. Hayley felt a genuine sense of happiness as she reclined on Leonardo's bed, anticipating the usual morning breakfast from him. Leonardo had made it his duty to always serve her breakfast in bed after any long passionate night. Just like the past five mornings, this was no exception as Leonardo had also made mad love to her the previous night. Ever since they got engaged, they'd been all over each other, having sex everywhere and any corner of the mansion, ranging from Leonardo's study to the kitchen, the b
Hayley woke up the next day, feeling slightly sore down there, a vivid reminder of what had transpired the previous night as she tried to recall. A coy smile tugged at her lips as she stretched out her weary body. As she fluttered her eyes open, she noticed she was the only one in the room.She instinctively turned over, hoping he'd be right behind her but to her disappointment, he wasn't also there. Hayley frowned, massaging her temples as she felt a wave of loneliness enveloped her. She couldn't help but ponder about Leonardo's whereabouts. Yawning tiredly, she lifted the mattress of her body to realize she was already cladded in one of his oversized Tshirts. A warm smile crossed her face as she recognized that Leonardo must have dressed her up in that because she had no recollection of doing so herself the previous night. Smiling with newfound excitement, she draped the mattress over herself, gazing up at the ceiling. Just then, she felt an unusual weight on her finger and when s
"Yeah," Hayley nodded curtly though she felt drained. A smile spread across his face and he glanced down at where they were joined, witnessing his cum flow from her pussy. He redirected his gaze back to her and whispered. "You're sore, aren't you?"Hayley nodded slowly, her eyes still dazed with a mix of lust and tiredness. "A bit."Leonardo regarded her and nodded. "This is the last, I promise." He said reassuringly, leaning in to kiss her lips. While kissing her, he began moving his waist upward and downward, his already surged dick thrusting into her channel deeply.Soft moans began fleeing from Hayley's lips once more, her visions blurring as she felt her arousal resurfaced. She hugged his back, wrapping her legs around his waist as he moved in and out of her repeatedly. Leonardo carefully angled his thrusts, taking her slowly and passionately as he wasn't just fucking her this time but making love to her. Hayley whined, feelings of ecstasy flooding through her as Leonardo buri
He rammed into her unexpectedly, causing Hayley to scream as a blend of immense pain and pleasure coursed through her. Leonardo's cock was buried deep inside her channel but he paused, allowing her to adjust to his size as he had taken her unexpectedly. His dick pulsated inside of her as her walls clamped around him.Their bodies joined; he paused, watching her as she struggled to catch her breaths, her face twisting with pain. Leonardo lowered himself to soothe her, his lips latching onto hers as he made to reduce her discomfort. Hayley whimpered amidst the kiss as he began moving in and out of her in a slow yet deep thrust. He was allowing her the moment to take him in fully and also being careful as well as he never forgot she was pregnant.Hayley caressed Leonardo's head, brushing her lips against his as he began fucking her, his pace increasing slowly with each passing thrust."Fuck, mi reina, you're so tight..." Leonardo growled out, stealing a glance down at where they were jo
As she spoke, Leonardo looked down at her with a smile, warmth spreading through him. He felt a deep sense of satisfaction hearing Hayley openly express her feelings. A rush of sensations enveloped him, intensifying as he became aware of his arousal pressing against her lower abdomen. Hayley’s inviting smile widened as she adjusted her position, allowing him to settle more comfortably against her. She squirmed slightly, breathing softly while maintaining eye contact. One hand wrapped around the back of his neck, while the other gently caressed his cheek.Before she could voice her thoughts, Leonardo beat her to it. "I love you," he declared, his gaze locked on hers, eager for her response. Her smile brightened as she tenderly traced his face with her thumb. "I love you too, Leonardo. And I'm so glad you’re the father of my children."A proud smile spread across his face, her words filling him with warmth and affection. Without a moment's hesitation, he leaned in to capture her lips
His tongue danced around her sensitive bud, drawing a soft whimper from Hayley as she tangled her fingers in his hair, tugging at the strands. Her legs were hung over his shoulders as his head remained buried in her core.Hayley gasped for breath as Leonardo traced his tongue along her slit, teasingly reaching her clit, sucking and licking with an intensity that suggested he had everything to lose. "Ah, yes, baby, right there..." Hayley moaned, tilting her head back in ecstasy, her eyes fluttering shut. Despite the air conditioning in Leonardo's room, beads of sweat glistened on her temples, her body ignited with an unquenchable desire."Mm, mm, L-Leonardo," she squirmed beneath him, but his firm grasp held her in place, preventing her from escaping his tantalizing ministrations.He continued to suck and lick until she began to writhe in response, her legs trembling as her climax approached. High-pitched moans escaped her lips as she begged him to continue, but in typical fashion, Le
