Liara entered the house with heavy steps, dragging Maya up the stairs as if her daughter were a burden. Anger bubbled within her, fueling the distrust that consumed her.

Upon reaching the room, Liara threw Maya onto the armchair with a brusque gesture. The young woman curled up in silence, refusing to speak.

“You’re going to tell me right now, what is all this?” Liara demanded, her voice dripping with fury.

Maya remained mute, her trembling lips refusing to form the words her mother so desperately wanted to hear.

With slow, deliberate movements, Morgan began unbuttoning Hanna's blouse, revealing her soft skin. She lost herself in his touch for a moment, letting herself go. Each piece of clothing removed made him even more eager, as he felt her hand slide down his abdomen, reaching the button of his pants and eliciting a heavy sigh."We can't do anything here," she said, snapping back to reality, looking at him with caution."Just don't make any noise, and no one will know..." he whispered.Hanna nodded, her eyes shining as she placed her arms on Morgan's shoulders.

"So you're her future fiancé?" he asked, his voice filled with incredulity."Of course... even though we don't agree..." Murilo admitted, lowering his gaze."Why did you agree?" Morgan, overcome with anger and confusion, questioned."Misa's father wants her to get married. He found three suitors, but I knew those two men—they're not good... I knew they wouldn't take care of her, so we made an agreement. I'll take care of her, after all..." He paused, searching for the right words. "We have something in common—Hanna cares for her a lot, and she's al

Her emotions were conflicted: she didn’t want her father to die, yet she harbored deep resentment for his actions. "I just don’t want him to die," she admitted, her voice thick with emotion. "It wouldn’t be fair to strip so many people of their freedom for years and then just die like that." "He’s an old man now," Gabriel offered, trying to console her. "Still filled with malice..." Hanna smiled, but it was a disconcerted and melancholic smile. "Can you imagine he wante
