‘No, I must be mistaken. She couldn’t possibly have the same birthmark as Kate. My mind is playing tricks on me, as my ex-wife is the only naked woman I’ve seen before.’

The atmosphere within the private jet remained tense for the rest of the flight, with Sienna sequestering herself in the bedroom and David doing his best to focus on work in the main cabin.

Both of them were acutely aware of the unspoken tension that hung in the air like a thick fog, but neither knew how to address it or break the silence.

When the plane finally landed, Sienna wasted no time in gathering her belongings and making her way to the exit. David, sensing her haste to be away from the awkward situation, hurried to collect his things as well.

Their goodbyes were brief and formal, a stark contrast to the lingering looks and unspoken emotions that had passed between them just hours before.

"Have a safe trip home, Sienna," David said, his voice stiff and distant.

"You too, David," she replied, her eyes barely me

How could you do this to me? To us?""I… I didn't… I swear, I don't know how this happened," David stammered, desperately trying to find the words to explain the inexplicable.

    Sienna and Shane pulled up to the Hamilton mansion. Outwardly, she appeared nonchalant, but inside, she was a bundle of nerves, anticipating the final phase of her plan. Her heart pounded in her chest as she turned to face her assistant. "Shane, do you think we've taken this too far?" she asked, her voice wavering with uncertainty. He studied her thoughtfully before sighing. "Boss, I know this is hard for you, but remember what that man put you through. You've suffered so much because of him, and it's only fair that he gets a taste of his own medicine." Sienna nodded, though her doubts persisted. She recalled the countless nights she had spent crying herself to sleep after her life had been upended by Lyra and David's accusations. And she was pregnant with his twins, barely making a living. "Do you think he's seen the photos yet?" she asked, biting her lip nervously. He offered her a reassuring smile. "I'm sure he has by now. Our inside man should have ensured that the pictures lo

    As Sienna pulled back, she stammered an apology. "I-I'm sorry, David. I didn't mean to... I don't know what came over me."David looked into her eyes, searching for an answer to the overwhelming emotions he was experiencing.In that moment, he realized that he couldn't deny the powerful connection that existed between them.

She blinked, momentarily disoriented, before realizing where she was and the events that had unfolded the night before.A wave of panic washed over her as she remembered falling asleep in David's arms. She glanced at him, still asleep beside her, and her heart raced with fear.'What if he discovered my true identity while I slept? What if the morning light revealed my birthmark, the telltale sign of who I really am?'Unlike the darkness of the night, the morning light now cast a revealing glow over the room, and she worried that it wouldn't be long before David would put the pieces together.Sienna knew she had to leave before he woke up and made any connections.As she carefully slipped out of his embrace, she couldn't help but feel a mixture of sadness and fear.

    Still seething with rage after Sienna spilled coffee on her face and hair, Lyra felt her cheeks burn with humiliation. The barista hesitantly approached her, holding out the coffee Sienna had ordered for her before leaving. Lyra glared at the cup as if it was the most offensive thing she had ever seen. "Do you seriously think I want that?!" she screamed, her voice shrill with anger. The barista quickly retreated, and she stormed out of the café, slamming the door behind her with a resounding bang. As she stomped down the street, her mind raced, consumed by thoughts of revenge. 'How dare she mess with me? How dare Sienna try to take David away from me? I won't let her win! I'll make her regret ever crossing me!' she fumed internally. Her anger was so intense that she barely noticed the curious stares from passersby, who gawked at the woman covered in coffee, muttering and occasionally shouting in fury. She was too wrapped up in her own turmoil to care about what anyone else thought

His mind raced, a flurry of conflicting thoughts and emotions pulling him in every direction.The pictures of him with the unknown woman from his hotel suite in Silicon Valley were still fresh in his memory. The fact that someone had looped those pictures on the screen at his house for his family and fiancée to see only made matters worse.

She had appeared at his house all disheveled and drenched in coffee.'Why do I feel
