The soft rays of dawn filtered through the hotel room, casting a warm glow on the tangled sheets and scattered clothes that adorned the floor. As the sun peaked, disrupting the peaceful slumber, a mobile phone rang, shattering the tranquility of the morning.Lily groaned, her head pounding in protest as she fumbled for her phone. The incessant ringing felt like an unwelcome intrusion, a harsh jolt into consciousness. Rubbing her temples, she squinted to find the mobile, annoyance etched across her disoriented features."If it's not an emergency, someone's going to regret waking me up this early," she muttered, her voice laden with irritation.With a groan, Lily tried to sit up, only to be met with dizziness and a throbbing headache.

Wrapped in a plush hotel towel, Lily stepped into the room, steam wisping around her like a veil. The scene before her was chaotic, an unexpected whirlwind within the serene confines of the hotel suite. Kade, fully dressed in tailored trousers and a crisply rolled white shirt, stood amidst the scattered aftermath, an enigmatic smile quirking his lips, while sipping a cup of coffee.As she took a moment to assess him, Lily found herself captivated by his presence. He possessed a sculpted physique that exuded both athleticism and an understated grace, a paradox in itself.

With a furrowed brow, Reid handed the note to Bella, a hint of apprehension in his eyes. "It's for you," he mentioned, his voice tinged with concern.Bella's heart pounded with a mix of curiosity and worry as she scanned the note. "I need to go see Lily," she exclaimed, her voice urgent, filled with a sense of impending crisis.Reid's expression shifted to a faint exasperation, but he nodded understandingly. "Alright, I'll make the arrangements to check out," he replied, trying to mask his concern.Bella hurriedly rushed towards the room indicated in the message, her mind racing with apprehension. She knocked repeatedly, calling out for Lily. As seconds ticked by without a response, worry gnawed at her. She knocked harder, her voice tinged with urgency, "Lily, it's Bella. Open the door, please!"After what felt like an eternity, the door creaked open slowly. Bella's heart sank when she saw Lily, her eyes red-rimmed, her face a picture of anguish and constant crying. Shock and concern
As Bella and Reid left the hotel, they were ushered into a waiting private jet. Bella's curiosity bubbled within her, and she couldn't resist asking, "Where are we headed?" Reid grinned, his eyes twinkling with mischief. "Ah, now that's a secret," he teased, enjoying the suspense. Bella huffed in mock frustration, a mix of annoyance and intrigue dancing in her eyes. "You enjoy keeping secrets, don't you?" she retorted playfully, knowing it was futile to try and pry information from Reid when he was set on surprises. The jet soared through the sky, the hum of the engines creating a backdrop to the hushed conversations and the occasional laughter between Bella and Reid. Mid-flight, as the calmness enveloped the cabin, Reid turned to Bella, his voice tinged with a hint of tenderness. "You can rest if you want," he suggested, a warm smile gracing his lips. Bella blushed at the suggestion, her mind instantly wandering back to their previous journey on the plane and the unforgettable mo
"I want you to leave Bella alone. Stop trying to find her," Reid's voice boomed through the phone, a clear declaration of his intent cutting through the air.There was a brief pause, the silence covered with tension, before Richard Livingston's voice crackled through the line, sharp and incisive. "Reid, this is not a game. Bella is my daughter. I have every right as she disgraced my name. Do you imagine the media mess that we are in right now? Plus, I had to see in the press that you married her, without even our approval!!! How am I supposed to answer all the coming questions, especially from all our social circle?!"Richard's words sliced through the air like a knife, each syllable laced with an implicit threat. But Reid was not one to back down, especially when it concerned Bella."You're treading on thin ice, Richard," Reid retorted, his tone ice-cold, but an underlying fury simmered beneath the surface.Richard, not one to shy away from a challenge, fired back, his voice dripping
As the hum of the jet engines persisted in the background, Bella stirred from her slumber, momentarily disoriented by her surroundings. The realization that she was still on the jet, soaring through the skies, brought her back to the present. Rubbing the remnants of sleep from her eyes, she took a moment to gather herself before deciding to search for Reid.Venturing through the cabin, she found Reid deeply engrossed in his work, his fingers tapping away at the keys of his laptop with practiced precision.
