Adam took Samantha to his apartment. She was enchanted by the place—a large, luxurious penthouse, just as impressive as the mansion where they had been staying.

Samantha wasn’t doing well, and he had already noticed. He walked over to her and wrapped her in a hug, wanting to comfort her. He was playing his role as her boyfriend, and he had no idea how much that gesture meant to her in that moment.

“Everything’s going to be okay, baby. He’s going to pull through,” he murmured, trying to calm her

  • Unexpected Encounter   Insecurity

    The three of them arrived at the store. At the entrance, Sophia asked the security guards to wait outside.“You can wait here. I don’t think anything’s going to happen inside, especially with Alice around.”They obeyed and stayed outside, keeping watch. Once inside, the three women began browsing the clothing racks, picking out a few pieces. Sophia headed to the fitting room to try on what she had selected.“I’m going to check out the dresses on the other side. I have a dinner tonight and I want to look stunning,” Alice said, clearly excited.“Like everything you wear doesn’t look amazing on you!” Samantha rolled her eyes.“But it wasn’t always like that… I’ll be right back. Stay alert,” Alice advised.Samantha noticed that Alice sounded a little off when she said “it wasn’t always like that.” It seemed like she had remembered something and gotten sad for a second.She took the opportunity to look at a few items herself, chose what she liked, and headed toward the fitting rooms. On th

  • Unexpected Encounter   Setting the Trap

    Adam finished his shower and, before Samantha stepped in for hers, said:“I’m going to get dressed and head downstairs. I want to get this bug situation sorted out quickly so I can relax and plan how to finish Oliver off.”“You haven’t eaten anything yet, Adam. The doctor said you need to eat because of the medication. Do you want to end up with gastritis or a stomach ulcer?”“Are you scolding me, babe?” he asked, stepping closer with a smile.“Yes, because you’re incredibly stubborn.”“I’ll take it from you… and I actually like seeing this bossy side of you,” Adam said, grabbing her by the waist and pulling her in for a kiss.“Go get dressed. Didn’t you say you were in a hurry?” she shot back, taking the chance to give another order.“Yes, ma’am,” he replied, giving her a playful salute with a grin. “I promise I’ll grab something to eat on the way. Is that good enough?”“It better be,” Samantha answered with a satisfied smile, happy he had given in.After saying goodbye, Samantha wen

  • Unexpected Encounter   Taking Advantage

    When Andrew got back to the clinic, Pedro was still asleep. He didn’t want to wake him, so he stood quietly by the bed for a few minutes, just watching. Earlier, he had stopped by the infirmary to get a few scratches he’d picked up during the escape treated.As he stood there, his thoughts drifted to his brother’s situation with Samantha. All the dangers she had faced just by being with Adam, the desperation on her face when there was no news of him… Would it be better for Pedro to stay away from him? That way, he wouldn’t run the risk of going through the same thing his friend had.Lost in thought, Pedro woke up and saw him there. He immediately noticed the small scrape on Andrew’s face and grew worried. Samantha had already left looking roughed up, and he had only found out through the nurses.“What happened to you? Are you hurt?” Pedro asked, trying to move but wincing in pain.“Careful, you can’t move like that,” Andrew said, stepping closer.“Are you really not hurt?” Pedro looke

  • Unexpected Encounter   Lesson

    Samantha followed the two of them, curious to see up close what Alice was scheming. They headed to the property’s shooting range. There were two: one outdoor and one indoor. As expected, they chose the indoor one.The competitors started getting ready. Alice handed Samantha a pair of ear protectors and stepped into her lane. The rule was simple: whoever hit the center of the target the most times would win. Samantha had no doubt who would come out on top.Both loaded their magazines and began firing. After emptying their rounds, they pulled the targets back in. Just as Samantha had predicted, Alice won.“Pure luck,” Marcos grumbled. He hated losing—especially to her.“Alright, that really wasn’t fair to you. I’ll buy dinner,” Alice replied with a smile.That had been Alice’s plan from the start. She knew she would win, but she wanted to have dinner with him. If she invited him directly, she was sure Marcos would turn her down. Since he was extremely competitive, she came up with the b

  • Unexpected Encounter   Falling Like a Duckling

    They went upstairs to Adam’s bedroom. Samantha filled the bathtub while he started taking off his clothes. When she came back and saw the condition of his body, she almost broke down in tears again.“Are you in pain?” she asked, her voice heavy with concern.“I’m fine,” he replied with that stubborn tone he always used.Samantha knew Adam would never admit to any weakness. He hadn’t taken any painkillers, and there was no way all those cuts weren’t hurting. Once the tub was full, he got in. The low groan that escaped his lips confirmed what she already suspected—the pain was real.Carefully, she helped him wash the cuts, running her fingers gently over the wounded skin. Even though she knew the doctor would be there soon to examine him, she wanted to take care of him as best she could.After soaking in the warm water for a while, Adam finally got out. He put on just a robe since Carlos wouldn’t be long. As he sat down on the bed, there was a knock at the door. It was Caio, letting the

  • Unexpected Encounter   Father

    Oliver had managed to escape and headed straight back to his house. He arrived furious, smashing everything he saw in his office. Even with his injured leg, he was fully focused on venting his rage.Sabrina stood nearby, watching everything but not daring to say a word. She knew that if she spoke, his anger might turn on her. After knocking over as many things as possible, he finally turned to her.“What are you waiting for? Call the damn doctor. Can’t you see I’ve been shot?”Sabrina didn’t answer. She quickly left the office to do what he had ordered. She called the doctor, who said he was on his way immediately. He already knew Oliver well and understood the man had zero patience.“The doctor is already coming. Do you need me to do anything else?” she asked, trying to be helpful since his rage was obvious.“You can’t do anything useful. Could you deliver Adam’s head to me, by any chance? Of course not. I think ever since I got you on my side, I’ve only had bad luck.”At that moment

  • Unexpected Encounter   Power Plant

    When they got close to the power plant, Alice moved ahead once again. She positioned herself in the tall grass and confirmed the presence of armed men on site, concluding they were definitely Oliver’s.The rest of the team spread out around the perimeter. As they observed, they reported back on how

  • Unexpected Encounter   Tracker

    Samantha couldn’t sit still. She paced back and forth across the room while Caio checked the final piece of information they needed before heading out to rescue Adam. Alice’s arm wound had already been treated, and even Marcos had helped with it—as a way of thanking her for saving him earlier. Now

  • Unexpected Encounter   News

    The injured members of Adam’s team were sent to the clinic, while the others headed back to the mansion to start making arrangements for the rescue. They would have to check every possible one of Oliver’s hideouts, and they needed to do it in record time.Back at the clinic, after Samantha had help

  • Unexpected Encounter   By a Hair

    Alice pressed the device, relaying the information to Adam and hoping it wasn’t too late.“Abort! Abort! It’s a trap—get the hell out of there as fast as you can!” she shouted.No response came from Adam. Since he wasn’t answering, she needed to grab her rifle and take out the other shooter so she
