"I don't think filing a restraining order against the father of your child is the ideal solution to your current situation. Especially now that your child has grown attached to him and feels safe around him." Taylor Devereaux, Hayley's trusted friend and therapist advised. "Besides, he means no harm, right? I'm not saying your request is wrong, but I suggest you reconsider and think about your daughter's happiness before making a final decision, Nina. Don't deny the innocent child the chance to know and be with her father." They were both seated in Hayley's office that Friday afternoon, discussing the issue at hand.Hayley looked at her fazed, reclining back in the swivel seat in despair after hearing Taylor's response to her request for a restraining order against Leonardo. Hayley heaved out a long, weary sigh, her mind racing with thoughts as she stared in a faraway look.Taylor watched her, urging her. "Don't act irrational. Think a moment to think this through."Hayley remained
Hayley's heart skipped a beat as she didn't see that question coming. Her words caught in her throat, and her heart palpitated, her gaze faltering."Be honest with me, Nina. That is the only way I can help you. Do you still love -"Hayley interrupted sharply with a hard gaze. "No... I don't," she denied undeterred.Their eyes locked, and Taylor could see past her hard exterior that she was lying."You're angry, Nina. You wish to move on. But before you can do that, you need to release that anger out of you... You need to let it out. You need answers to your questions. You want to know why he did what he did to you many years ago. You want to know if it was worth it. Am I correct?"Yes, she was. Taylor was very correct, but Hayley was reluctant to acknowledge her feelings. She was still consumed by the need to get her revenge.Hayley remained quiet, her gaze only hardening further."Why did you leave Clasold City six years ago? Was it because of him?" Taylor pressed, her tone sedate as
It was yet another blissful Saturday, and the early hours of that morning saw Hayley in the kitchen, busy baking cookies and preparing snacks for their special Girl-day-in that was just two hours away. Hayley had decided to set her predicaments aside for once and focus on spending quality time alone with Daisy. It had been ages since they hung out together, without any distractions.After Hayley's request to file a restraining order against Leonardo had been declined and rejected by Taylor twice, Hayley thought she might as well just forget and move on. She wanted to have a fun-filled Saturday indoors with her daughter. At least that was all she could do at that moment.Daisy was still asleep in her room when Hayley thought about surprising her by the time she woke up with the plans of a movie day - with her favorite movie and her favorite pastries and snacks.After neatly placing the raw pastries on the baking tray, Hayley delicately glazed the croissants with the egg mixture. Once s
Hayley's heart pounded in her chest, and her smile instantly faltered as she heard Daisy's unexpected words. The comment felt heartwarming, but it also made her heart race wildly at the same time.She was taken aback, her lips slightly parting due to shock. Up until now, Daisy had never shown much interest in her dad before. The presence of Adrian in their lives had always kept her curiosity about her father at bay. Of course, Daisy knew Adrian wasn't her dad, but she treated him like one. Now, what had changed? Why was Daisy suddenly bringing the 'd' word up?Was she already failing in her duties and attempts to make Daisy not feel the absence of her father much? Did Daisy already start feeling the void and longing for the presence of her dad? These questions spiraled in Hayley's mind, unable to find answers to any.Hayley was still in shock for a moment, but that feeling was soon replaced by an overwhelming mix of guilt and remorse as Daisy pulled away from the hug, staring into her

Just like Hayley had planned that beautiful Saturday morning, Clara had also decided to have a special mother-daughter bonding time with Luna as well. Clara realized it had been a while since she hung out with her precious daughter without the involvement of others, like Hayley and her daughter. And theirs just happened to also be a movie day, complete with ice cream and cookies. But the only difference was that, just an hour into their perfect movie date, it was disrupted when they heard a knock on their front door.Clara furrowed her brow, straining her ears to identify the sound. At first, she hesitated to answer, not wanting to abandon her daughter for whoever it was outside. She wasn't expecting anyone that day, so she could ignore it if she wanted to.Clara had no friends that visited her aside from Hayley. After what happened with her old best friend, Katherine, she decided to distance herself from having female friends. She thought having Hayley as her only friend was enough,
Clara shot at him, her anger rising. "What? No. No. I'm here as your friend. Hayley doesn't even know I'm here. She's currently not speaking to me. I think I might have done something that greatly annoyed her. I think I might have ruined it all..." Clara scoffed incredulously. "Oh really? Well, you should have thought of that before getting your 6-year-old a freaking car as her birthday gift. Didn't you know that was the last piece to my puzzle that enabled me to uncover the truth?""Oh... regardless, I'm sorry, Clara. You're and you've been nothing but a good friend, and I don't want to lose that friendship because of what happened. Will you forgive me? What can I do to make it up to you?"Clara scoffed, shaking her head as she recalled Hayley had also asked her the same question. "Like husband, like wife indeed." She bit out.Leonardo furrowed his brows, not understanding what she meant by that.But Clara didn't explain, instead, she shrugged carelessly, adding. "Like I told Nina
Clara was left speechless as she didn't know how to react to what he had just told her. She and Leonardo locked eyes for a brief moment. "I guess I'll see you around, Clara," Leonardo said after a while, breaking the stifling silence that had descended upon them after he revealed his intentions to her. Grinning, he added. "And please, I hope you would heed my pleas. Give her a second chance. We all deserve it." He winked.Clara said nothing, instead her eyes only stared coldly at Leonardo as he retracted and made his way back to his black posh car, parked by the curb, on the other side of the road.With one last glance and wave from him to her, Leonardo hopped into his car and revved the engine onto the road. Soon, he had driven out of sight. Clara stood frozen, gazing in a faraway look as she processed all Leonardo had told her earlier. Path to redemption? Everything began to dawn on her.Leonardo's visit made Clara realize he had never been in love with her in the first place. She

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
