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?"

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.

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.

She repeated, disregarding Lilian's shock."How did you manage to find this place?" Lillian retorted, her eyes darting between Hayley.

She got bullied by her superiors; sometimes, she was denied dinner. While she had thought initially that she was resilient and could survive the prison life, now she was beginning to doubt her strength. Only three days had passed but it felt as though she had been trapped in there for decades. The relentless suffering felt overwhelming most times.

.Hayley returned to the hospital after delivering the lawsuit documents to the wardress at Wendy's prison. Approximately an hour prior, the prosecutor, Alexa, who was overseeing Hayley's case, had provided her with the papers following their meeting. Hayley then drove to the prison, where Wendy and Lillian were incarcerated, and handed the documents to the wardress, choosing not to visit any of them. That was the least of her concerns; her only interest in seeing them was during the court proceedings, where the judge would render his final decision.
