Five years has passed since Elliana ran away from home, looking back at her decision, she was glad that she took it. She had deeply broken her family's heart and she was scared that Leo would know the truth about her pregnancy so she decided to run far away from them all, living quietly like she never existed."Mama, mama look I've got a teddy" The melodious voice of her pretty four years old daughter interrupted her thoughts."Oh wow, such a nice teddy you've got" Elliana responded to Leah her daughter. As Elliana finished reading to her daughter Leah, she suddenly sat up and announced that she was thirsty. Elliana sighed, knowing that this meant their bedtime routine was about to get extended by at least half an hour. "I'll get you some water," Elliana said, giving her a kiss on the forehead."Thank you, mommy," Leah replied, her big brown eyes looking up at her mother. "You're the best mommy in the world."Elliana smiled, despite her exhaustion. "Thank you, sweetie, you're pretty

A man in a dark suit stepped out, his face expressionless."Is this her?" the man asked the officer."Yes, sir," the officer replied."I still don't get it why boss wouldn't let go of this lady." The man in suit added. "Boss left for an urgent meeting and he asked me to handle her, don't hurt her. He wants her back safe and sound, drag her into the car." The man added, and motioned for the officer to drag her in. As the officer stepped forward to approached her, a loud crash came from inside the airport. People began to scream and run for the exits.

Her head was pounding and her vision was still a bit blurry. She tried to sit up, but a wave of dizziness hit her and she fell back against the pillows."Easy there," a voice said. As Elliana lay in the hospital bed, trying to process what had happened, she wondered where Leo had gone leaving her all alone in this hospital. He had clearly arranged for her to be brought to the hospital she remembered, but then he had just disappeared. Why would he do that? She thought.She tried to think back to the events of the evening, but her head was still fuzzy and she couldn't make sense of anything. All she knew was that something was very wrong.

"Do I look like a joke to you?" She asked."Oh, are you just realizing that now?" Leo snapped. "You should have held your father when he wanted to collect the loan from my family, or you would have stopped him from using you as a collateral. Blame your parents for using you as a joke, and not me!" He yelled.Elliana, short of words just turned and left. She decided to walk home, at least she would be able to clear off her head by doing so. She was still walking back home, when she got a text message from Leo."For the fact that you are just my collateral wife, it dose not mean that we won't have a wedding ceremony. After getting married to my wife Sabrina, we'll have a s

Elliana's eyes widened in horror as she realized what had happened. She had been taken advantage of while she was in a vulnerable state.

Leo moved closer to Elliana."Elliana, I need you to understand that your father made a deal with me. He promised me your hand in marriage, and I expect him to honor that promise. If he doesn't, I'll have no choice but to involve the police."Elliana felt the world spinning around her. How could her father have done this? She couldn't believe what was happening. "But I can't marry you, don't do this!" Elliana yelled , tears streaming down her face. Leo looked at her with a cold, calculated expression. "I'm afraid it's too late for that," he said.
