Hayley's surprise was evident as she turned to face Leonardo.

"Leonardo?" She asked instinctively, rising from her seat in sheer disbelief.

A broad smile was etched on his charming face as he approached her. Overwhelmed with relief and elation to see her, he pulled her in for a warm embrace, wrapping her arms around her gently and disregarding anyone else in the room with them.

"I missed you so much, baby," Leonardo murmured, his breath warm against the crook of Hayley’s neck as he inhaled the sweet scent that lingered there.

Watching their heartfelt reunion, a smile curled on Rosalie's face as she watched them silently. She didn't mind the fact that Leonardo had ignored her and focused on Hayley only. If anything, it warmed her heart to witness his feelings for her daughter.

Turning to her assistant, Rosalie waved a dismissal hand at her. "You can leave now," She said quietly and the lady nodded before discreetly exiting their presence.

On the other hand, Hayley's heart raced i

    You did what?" Hayley gasped in disbelief as she processed the news. Leonardo had just confessed that he relinquished his chase for the fortune to be with her, a revelation that left Hayley utterly astonished.Her brow furrowed in confusion as she gazed at him, struggling to comprehend his decision. Sensing her shock, Leonardo responded with concern. "I had to, baby. I'm sorry, but I couldn’t allow anything to jeopardize our relationship. I'd do anything to have you back." He lowered his eyes, gently taking her hand in his. When he lifted his gaze to meet hers again, he saw the bewilderment still etched on her face.Ignoring her surprise, he continued, his voice laden with emotion. "I love you, Hayley." He emphasized. "I love you so deeply that I'm willing to do anything for you, to even give up the fortune...""I didn't ask you to do that," Hayley interrupted sharply, her eyes flicking between his. Leonardo spoke softly, a warm smile gracing his features. "I know, baby. As strange

Anna couldn't comprehend what was going on or taking Hayley's time.She had been anxiously awaiting Hayley’s return, fully aware that she could not leave without completing her final task. She had made a promise to Wendy, and failing to deliver would disappoint her greatly. She couldn't see to that. Wendy had supported her in countless ways, and Anna couldn't bear the thought of letting her down.Anxiety and impatience coursing through her, Anna rose to her feet and paced the room about for a few minutes, still awaiting Hayley.

    Emily was indoors with Daisy that evening when Freya showed up at the door, bearing gifts for the toddler. "Freya!" The toddler innocently scampered to hug her babysitter, Freya Williams. Emily also regarded Freya with warmth as she stepped aside for her to enter the house. "Welcome, Freya. How are you doing?" Emily asked with concern as she closed the door behind them after they had entered. "I'm great, thank you," Freya replied politely. She then turned to Daisy, who was settled in her arms and she gave her the bar of chocolate she brought for her. "Thank you, Freya," Daisy genuinely accepted the chocolate bar. The three of them settled on the couch, and Emily exhaled heavily, reaching for the remote control on the table. She switched through the channels, searching for an entertaining show for her guest and a show also suitable for the toddler. Meanwhile, Freya chatted with Daisy just like old times and even patted her hair as Daisy told her about her day. She stared at t

    As soon as Freya Williams covered a few steps away from Hayley's home with Daisy still by her side, she pulled out her phone and made a call after glancing around to ensure no one was watching her."Hey, Wendy," She spoke uneasily, her breath hitching as Wendy answered the phone. "Do you have her?" Wendy's curt response flowed into her ears.Freya exhaled heavily, stealing a glance at the innocent toddler who awaited her patiently.Nodding eagerly, Freya redirected her gaze, glancing around as she replied. "Yes. Yes, I do have her right here with me." She answered."Alright. Go straight to the plaza across the street, that's the place we're going to make the exchange. We'll be right there shortly.""Hope you have my money ready, Wendy?" Freya's voice was almost in a whisper. "I don't want any excuses, alright?""Trust me and walk. I'll see you soon, Freya Williams. Bye for now." With that, Wendy ended the call, leaving Freya hanging.Annoyance coursed through Freya and her brows furr

    "How can I trust that the two of you won’t harm her?" Freya arched an eyebrow at Wendy after handing Daisy over to them. Wendy scoffed incredulously before replying. "We’re not monsters, Miss Williams. The girl is merely serving as leverage in the meantime. Nothing more. I assure you—" "Leverage to what?" Freya interjected sharply, cutting off Wendy's sentence. Wendy shot Freya a brief glare, irritation bubbling beneath the surface at her relentless questioning. Taking a deep breath, she exhaled heavily and took a few steps closer to Freya, who stood her ground as she observed Wendy intently. With her face inches away from Freya's, Wendy stated, "You’ve been compensated for the job, Miss Williams. I would appreciate it if you refrained from probing into my motives any further. I despise being questioned, but what I detest even more are those who meddle in others' affairs. Do you understand?" Her tone turned serious as she continued, "So, why don’t you be sensible, take the money, a

    Emily felt a great surge of anxiety as she processed Hayley's request. A bead of sweat formed on her temples and her heart raced with apprehension, unsure of how to respond. She had anticipated this moment, acutely aware Hayley would inquire about her daughter. What the heck was she supposed to say? This was bad. If Hayley sensed that something was amiss, it would distract her from the competition coming up the next day, and Emily couldn’t afford that, especially considering Freya might arrive later with Daisy. Although she remained uncertain about that thought, she tried to reassure herself. Freya didn't pose any threats and Hayley had deemed her as family, so there was nothing to worry about, right? But deep down, a part of Emily knew there was everything to worry about. The thought of Daisy being in danger stirred deep anguish within her. Emily longed to believe that Daisy was safe with Freya. She tried to compose herself by reassuring herself of this."Hello, Em... I’m waiting,"

    Hayley returned to the retreat the following, infused by a new sense of determination and joy bubbling within her. It was finally the long-awaited Day of the competition, a pivotal moment that would determine her future. Though she wasn't all that concerned about winning as now she had more than she could ever ask for, she remained determined to put in her best effort and aim for the prize. She had already crafted her first masterpiece for the competition. Having already completed her first masterpiece, she was now set to dedicate the next four hours to creating her second as two pieces were required for the competition. After dropping her off in the parking lot, Leonardo wished her good luck. He had wanted to accompany her inside, but she declined, wanting to avoid the scrutiny of the gossipers in the retreat. Before reluctantly leaving, Leonardo assured her that he would always be there for her if she needed him. With a grateful smile, she exited the car. As she walked to her room

    Emily wasn't one to bawl her eyes out when things weren't going her way. She was a counterpoint of Hayley in terms of handling situations like a mature lady, but this time around, it was different. Her eyes bore the marks of a long night filled with tears, and a dull ache throbbed in her head as she rubbed her weary eyes.Upon lowering her hand from her eyes, a wave of loneliness flooded her as reality began to sink in once again that morning. A splitting ache slammed her head as she recalled the search for Daisy had been futile the previous night. Just as said before, Emily scoured the neighborhood for them when she couldn't find them at the first ten restaurants/ice cream shops she visited. All were to no avail as she was always met with negative responses. The neighbors around didn't tell her much as they claimed they hadn't seen anything. To compound Emily's frustration, Freya wasn't still taking any of her calls. Emily didn't know where she lived, so she hadn't gone there the

    A brief wave of disbelief washed over Leonardo as he stared at Hayley in astonishment. "What?" he blurted out absentmindedly, a hint of excitement seeping into his voice.Hayley felt a blush rise to her cheeks as she observed his reaction, realizing this was the first time she had seen his response to her pregnancy news."Are you serious, baby?" Leonardo asked, his eagerness palpable as his gaze shifted to Hayley's abdomen, contemplating whether she was teasing him or if she truly meant it.A genuine smile spread across Hayley's face as she rolled her eyes at his question.

    Hayley hurried with overwhelming joy and excitement toward Leonardo's room, with Daisy beside her. Her elation was palpable as she realized that Leonardo was awake; she could hardly contain her eagerness to see him. At the same time, Leonardo engaged in conversation with his brother, Lorenzo, who had remained by his side since the women had departed an hour earlier following his awakening. Leonardo had undoubtedly been taken aback to see his family upon waking. However, his initial surprise gradually shifted to confusion when he noticed the absence of both his woman and daughter. However, they had reassured him that Hayley had stepped out briefly and would return shortly, while Daisy was in another room with Rosalie and Emily. With this information, his anxious heart began to settle as he accepted their reassuring words. After a further thirty minutes had elapsed without Hayley's return, Leonardo's concern began to intensify. Unable to contain himself, he called out to Lorenzo, who

    .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. With a sigh of frustration, Hayley pulled herself back to the present as she made a right turn onto the highway, heading towards the hospital. She recalled that the love of her life remained unconscious when she left earlier, and a wave of anxiety washed over her as she wondered if he had awakened from the coma. Thoughts of Leonardo tightened around her heart, causing her anguish. Hayley eventually regained composure as she caught sight

    Wendy collapsed on the ground, her head buried in her palms as she absorbed the news of Alison's sudden accident. It hit her like a thunderbolt, shattering her heart into pieces. Her daughter had been involved in an accident and according to what the wardress had mentioned, Alison had also fallen in a coma after the incident. Wendy swallowed, her face flooded with tears. Her heart ached painfully as she grappled with the reality. How could this be? How did this happen? She felt a pang of guilt constrict her heart tightly, knowing she was mostly responsible for the unfortunate circumstance that had befallen her daughter. If she hadn't gotten herself in trouble in the first place, none of this would have happened. With that, her cries intensified as she remained on the ground. "I'm very sorry, ma'am," The wardress tried to sympathize, her tone laden with pity. But that did little to console Wendy, whose thoughts were all over the place. Meanwhile, Lillian had also been shocked upon he

    "What are you saying? He has a guardian! You can't take that action."Lillian's heart raced with anxiety as she absorbed the unsettling information relayed to her over the phone. Despite her efforts to maintain her composure, her hand trembled slightly as it pressed the receiver to her ear. Beads of sweat began to form on her temples, and her anger flared as the caller finished her statement.Her grip on the phone tightened, and Lillian shot back, her frustration palpable. "What do you mean by that? You can't do that! He has a mother! I am his mother!"She fell silent as the caller replied, a response that clearly unsettled her. Lillian started again. "Listen, you cannot do this to me. Ethan is my son. I’ll be out of here very soon. Just be patient, please." Lillian pleaded, a tear streaming down her cheek that she quickly brushed away.She listened closely to the caller's words until the line beeped, indicating the call had ended.Her heart shattered, and fresh tears flowed down her

    Hayley headed out of the hospital as soon as she received the news about Freya's capture. Right after Lillian was apprehended, she had instructed an officer of the law to discreetly conduct a search for Freya, ensuring that she returned to the city in one piece so she could serve her fair punishment for her actions. Hayley was quite surprised by the speed of the development, however, that was the least of her concerns at that moment. A blend of satisfaction and annoyance brimmed within her as she headed out to the awaiting car, parked in the hospital lot. She had nearly forgotten Emily was trailing behind her until Emily's voice sailed into her ears, pulling Hayley from her thoughts. "Where are you going, Hayley? Who was it on the phone?" Emily pressed, her tone filled with concern. Realizing she hadn't shared the news with her, Hayley stopped midway and turned to Emily in an attempt to placate her confusion. "I'll be right back, Em. I need you to stay behind and watch my mother a

    Hayley made her way to the restroom section of the hospital and leaned against the door once she stepped inside. Her heart raced, stirred by memories of her confrontation with Clara.Painful tears stung her eyes despite her efforts to remain composed and resolute. She felt she didn't deserve to cry. If anyone ought to shed tears, it should be Clara, not herself. She hadn't done anything wrong.With this resolve, Hayley sniffled back her emotions, wiping away her tears with the back of her hand before heading towards the sink to wash her face. She stared at her reflection in the mirror afterward, her chest heaving. She drew in a deep breath and exhaled before further questioning herself if she had been too harsh on Clara or if she truly deserved what she got from her. Her thoughts were disrupted as the door to the bathroom swung open, startling Hayley. Without moving an inch, Hayley caught a glimpse of the person who had just walked in through the mirror and saw it was Emily."Hey, ar

    Meanwhile, Clara watched in silence as she absorbed the affectionate scene unfolding before her. Occasionally, her gaze would trail from the newfound couple to Hayley, who watched with enthusiasm and joy. Clara felt her heart pricked painfully, once again remembering that she and Hayley were no longer friends. And it was all her fault. She literally betrayed Hayley. Abandoned her when she needed her the most and turned her back to her in her times of trial and peril. She wondered if Hayley was ever going to forgive her for her actions.Sure, she had only acted out because she didn't like the way Hayley's deception affected Adrian. But recognizing Hayley's other predicament with Wendy and Lillian, she had now come to understand why Hayley had lied to them about her identity in the first place. She was obviously running from something and just didn't want to get entangled with her past again. It was unfortunate that Leonardo had just shown up to thwart those plans of Hayley.Reflecting
