Lucas woke up early the next morning, his mind still clouded with the events of the previous day. He couldn't believe that he was being accused of murder. He got dressed quickly and walked out of his bedroom, still feeling groggy. As he walked down the stairs, he saw Andrianne waiting for him in the living room."Good morning, Lucas," she said with a smile."Morning," Lucas replied, trying to sound as calm as possible. "The FBI is going to come here to arrest me for the murder of Steve. I need you to get my lawyer on the phone, and have him meet us at the FBI headquarters."Andrianne's eyes widened in shock. "Lucas, are you sure about this? You didn't do anything wrong.""I know I didn't, but I want to clear my name as soon as possible. I can't let this accusation ruin my life," Lucas replied, determination in his voice.Andrianne nodded, her heart heavy with worry. She quickly got on the phone with Lucas's lawyer, and they agreed to meet at the FBI headquarters in an hour.As they wa
Andrianne sat on the couch in the living room, staring blankly at the TV screen that had been turned off for hours. She had been restless, unable to find solace in anything around her. All she could think about was Lucas, and the fact that he was sitting in a jail cell, accused of a crime he didn't commit. The thought made her stomach churn, and she felt like she was on the brink of tears.She stood up suddenly and started pacing back and forth in the room, her mind racing with thoughts and ideas of how she could help Lucas. She knew that the evidence against him was strong, but she couldn't just sit around and wait for his fate to be decided. She had to do something.Her pacing was interrupted by the sound of her phone ringing. She picked it up and saw that it was Jackie calling."Hey, Jackie," Andrianne answered, trying to hide the desperation in her voice."Hey, girl. How you holding up?" Jackie asked.Andrianne sighed. "Not good. I can't stop thinking about Lucas. He's in jail, an
Emily had been trailing Andrianne for days, taking notes of her every move. She knew that Andrianne was the only obstacle standing in her way of getting back together withucas. And she was determined to get rid of her.Andrianne had no idea that she was being followed. She went about her daily routine, which mostly involved going to the hospital for checkups and running errands like grocery shopping. Emily made sure that one of her men was always watching Andrianne, waiting for the perfect time to strike.One day, Andrianne went to the hospital for a routine checkup. Emily's man followed her inside and pretended to be a patient. He sat down in the waiting area and waited for Andrianne to come out. When she did, he followed her outside, keeping a safe distance.Andrianne didn't suspect a thing. She walked to her car, got in and drove off. Emily's man followed her, making sure he wasn't spotted. He trailed her all the way to the grocery store, where Andrianne went in to buy some food.E
Andrianne met with her lawyer, David, in a quiet restaurant in downtown. The walls were decorated with various paintings and the dim lights created a serene atmosphere. They ordered some drinks and food before settling down to business.David listened attentively as Andrianne narrated everything that had happened leading up to Steve's death. She explained how she had walked into the room and found Steve attacking her husband. She described in detail how she had tried to pull Steve off Lucas, but he had turned on her and had started choking her. She recounted how she had grabbed the gun and had fired in self-defense.David nodded as Andrianne spoke. "I see," he said after she had finished. "That is certainly a case of self-defense. However, we need to be careful with the evidence against your husband. If we don't handle this well, he could end up facing charges for the murder of Steve."Andrianne nodded, her face grim. "I know," she said. "That's why I need you to help me. I don't want
David sat across from Andrianne in her luxurious living room, his eyes scanning the documents in front of him. Andrianne sat on the edge of her seat, anxiously waiting for his verdict. Finally, David looked up and gave a small nod."I think I have a plan," he said slowly, his eyes meeting Andrianne's. "But it's risky."Andrianne leaned in, her heart pounding in her chest. "What is it? I'll do anything to help Lucas."David took a deep breath. "We're going to use your pregnancy as leverage."Andrianne's eyes widened. "What do you mean?"David explained his plan in detail. They would use Andrianne's pregnancy as a bargaining chip to get the FBI off Lucas's back. They would tell the FBI that if they didn't drop the charges against Lucas, they would go public with the fact that Andrianne was pregnant with Lucas's child, and that the stress and anxiety caused by the charges could harm the baby.Andrianne looked skeptical. "But what if they don't believe us?"David smiled wryly. "They will.
The sun slowly peeked through the window as Andrianne woke up to a beautiful morning. She stretched her arms and yawned, feeling content and at peace. As she looked around the room, her eyes fell on a picture of her and Lucas on their wedding day. Her heart swelled with love and pride for her husband, who was soon to be acquitted of all charges.She got out of bed, feeling a sense of purpose and determination. She walked over to the window and pulled back the curtains, letting the warm morning sun filter in. The birds outside were singing a beautiful melody that filled the air. Andrianne took a deep breath, inhaling the fresh morning air, and smiled to herself. Today was going to be a good day.As she made her way to the kitchen to make breakfast, her phone rang. It was Lucas. He sounded ecstatic, telling her that his lawyer had just called him with good news. The evidence they had been waiting for had finally come in, and it proved his innocence beyond a doubt. He was going to be acq
Andrianne and Lucas held hands tightly as they drove back home. They were both overwhelmed with emotions and gratefulness that Lucas had been acquitted. The tension of the past few weeks had lifted and they were finally able to breathe easy again.Andrianne couldn't help but steal glances at Lucas while driving. He looked so handsome and at peace, like a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders. She was so grateful to have him by her side, especially after everything they had been through.As they drove, they talked about everything that had happened since Lucas was arrested. Andrianne told him about how she had been followed by Emily's men and how David had helped them come up with a plan to exonerate him. Lucas was amazed by her bravery and how she had stood by him through it all."I can't believe how lucky I am to have you in my life, Andrianne," Lucas said, squeezing her hand. "You are the strongest person I know."Andrianne blushed at his words, feeling a wave of happiness w
As the morning light broke through the curtains, Andrianne woke up to a realization that it was Lucas' birthday. She jumped out of bed and went straight to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for him. She whipped up his favorite breakfast, pancakes with crispy bacon and eggs, a cup of coffee, and a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice.She lit up candles on the pancakes and sang the birthday song as she made her way to their bedroom. She placed the tray on the bed, and Lucas woke up to the aroma of the delicious breakfast and Andrianne's beautiful voice."Happy birthday, my love," Andrianne said, planting a soft kiss on his cheek.Lucas was taken aback by the surprise and smiled at her. "Thank you, baby. This is so sweet of you."They enjoyed their breakfast in bed, savoring every bite and talking about their plans for the day. Lucas mentioned he had to go to work but promised to make it up to her in the evening."I have a surprise for you tonight, my love," Andrianne said, her eyes sp
