ログインAmelia shook her head with a cold smile, unable to believe what she was hearing."That's interesting," she said, her fingers tightening around the phone. "Because I've heard those exact words before." Her eyes narrowed as she stared at Valerie through the glass. "I already had a lawyer. Her name was Rebecca Stein."Valerie's expression changed slightly at the mention of the name, her confidence fading into something more guarded. "I know who Rebecca Stein was," she said quietly.Amelia's lips curled into a bitter smile. "Then you should know she wasn't just my lawyer. She was someone I trusted." She looked away, remembering the betrayal. "She promised she would help me, that she would fight for me and prove the truth." Her grip tightened around the phone. "But while I was sitting in that cell believing she was on my side, she was working against me. Rebecca gave my enemies information and helped them build the case against me."Her eyes hardened. "So when you suddenly appear out o
WENT-WORTH CORRECTIONAL CENTER — AMELIA’S CELL — MORNINGAmelia sat on the edge of her narrow bunk, staring at the cold floor beneath her feet. One hand rested protectively over her growing belly while the other gripped the worn blanket beside her.The sound of heavy footsteps approaching made her look up.A moment later, the sharp sound of keys rattling against metal bars filled the small cell.A guard appeared at the doorway, his expression blank.“Amelia Stone,” he said. “You have a visitor.”Amelia didn’t even bother looking up. A bitter laugh escaped her lips as she slowly shook her head.“If it’s that lying, useless ex-husband of mine, tell him to leave.”Her voice was filled with anger and pain. “I don’t want to see him. I don’t want to hear another excuse from him. And I definitely don’t want anything to do with him anymore.”The guard watched her for a moment. “It’s not your ex-husband.”Amelia finally lifted her head. Her eyes narrowed suspiciously. “It’s not?”The guard sh
FAVINO PENTHOUSE ~ NEW YORK CITY Gabriella’s face twisted with rage. “You can’t just barge in here. This is a private party. Leave now, or I’m calling security.”Valerie laughed in a cold, sharp sound. “Security? Please. Do you have any idea how long I’ve waited for this moment? Years, Gabriella. Ever since you destroyed that case I was building. Ever since you trashed my name. I’ve been planning this down to the last second.”Alejandro stepped forward, jaw tight. “Who is this woman? What is she even talking about?”Gabriella’s voice wavered, but she forced it steady. “She’s no one. Just some bitter lawyer who couldn’t beat me in court. She’s been obsessed with revenge for ages.”Valerie’s eyes turned to slits. “I couldn’t win because you paid off the judge. You scared my witnesses into silence. You played filthy, Gabriella. And now? Now you’re going to pay for every single thing.”Alejandro’s face went hard. “Explain. Now.”Valerie turned to him, her voice in a harsh tone. “I’l
FAVINO PENTHOUSE – LIVING ROOM – 7:00 PMThe penthouse looked breathtaking.Thousands of roses filled the room. Candles flickered on every table, casting a warm glow across the hall. Soft music drifted through hidden speakers. Crystal champagne glasses sparkled on silver trays.The room buzzed with conversation. Family members, close friends, and powerful business partners had all gathered for the engagement party.Near the floor-to-ceiling windows, Serena stood with Elena, watching the guests.Serena frowned. "I still can't believe Alejandro is doing this. How could he betray Amelia and marry that fake woman?"Elena turned to her with a sharp look. "Betray Amelia? Amelia is the fake one."Serena blinked. "What do you mean?""You've only seen the sweet act she puts on," Elena said coldly. "You don't know who she really is."Serena folded her arms. "And who is she?""A manipulative liar," Elena replied. "She controlled Alejandro for years and nearly destroyed his life."Serena stared
NYPD PRECINCT ~ NEW YORK CITY"No!" Sophia shouted. "I'm done being quiet! I'm done protecting myself! Someone killed Rebecca Stein and framed me for it! And I want to know who!"Miller and Reyes exchanged another glance."Alright, Mrs. Langston," Miller said slowly. "If you're willing to cooperate fully, we might be able to work something out. But you need to tell us everything about the conspiracy against Amelia Reynolds. And I mean everything."Sophia nodded frantically. "I will! I promise! Just get me out of here! Please!"Miller stood up. "We'll be back in a few minutes. Think carefully about what you want to say."He and Reyes walked out of the room, leaving Sophia alone with her lawyer.Harrison stared at Sophia, his jaw tightening. He ran a frustrated hand through his hair before taking a slow step toward her.“Sophia…” he said, his voice heavy. “Do you even realize what you’ve just done?”She folded her arms across her chest and lifted her chin, refusing to look intimidated.
FAVINO PENTHOUSE ~ NEW YORK CITYGabriella smiled and slipped out of bed. “I’d love to stay in bed with you darling,” she said as she picked up her purse, “but I have a meeting. The event planners are putting the final touches on the charity gala of my fashion show .”Alejandro smiled and nodded. “Go ahead. I’ll still be here when you get back.”Gabriella walked over and kissed his cheek. “I love you, Alejandro.”“I love you too,” he replied.She walked out the door. The moment it closed behind her, her smile disappeared. She pulled out her phone and sent a text: "It's working. He's completely under my control."But Alejandro had no idea. He walked to the window and looked out at the city. His mind was racing. He was done begging. He was done pleading. Amelia didn't want him anymore. Fine. He was done waiting for her.He pulled out his phone and dialed a number.His mother answered on the second ring. "Alejandro," Marisa said. Her voice was weak but alert. She was still recoverin

“Touch me. Fuck me. Anything.”He pumped his fingers slowly, thumb brushing her clit on every stroke. “I’m going to do all of it.”His mouth found her neck, sucking hard enough to leave marks as his fingers worked her steadily. She clutched his shoulders, nails digging through his coat. Wet sounds
Vivian’s face softened with something like pity. “You do what you’re best at. You survive. You play along. You don’t let him know you know. We need information. We need to find out who that woman is, what their endgame is. If he thinks you’re still his… that you’re still in his bed and in his pock
