Cap. 130: Strange Coldness**

As they reached the mansion's entrance, Morgan eyed the two women with suspicion. Then, turning his gaze to Hanna, he spoke firmly and protectively.

“Go to your annex,” he ordered. “You’ll be safer there. I’ll have a few trusted men guard the entrance to ensure those two don’t come near you.”

Hanna, understanding the situation, nodded silently. She knew she needed to protect herself from the threats posed by Liara and Maya, and the annex was the safest place for that.

“Miss Hanna!” Lory came running towards them, her face marked by concern. “I heard from the reports what happened… I’m so glad you’re okay!” She sighed, relieved to see them alive. “I can’t say you’re unharmed, but at least you’re alive.” A sad smile formed on her lips as tears welled up in her eyes.

“Relax, Lory,” Morgan replied, still tense from the kidnapping and the news of his marriage. “Take Hanna with you and keep her safe.” He raised his hand, signaling for silence. “I need to rest be

    Chapter 131: To Protect Hanna**Morgan and Oliver stared at each other, the air thick with restrained surprise and questions. The lawyer's revelation about the motivations behind the attack on Hanna’s house left Morgan perplexed and confused. "But why would a lawyer try to kill his own client, especially when you did everything to make sure the deal was fulfilled?" Morgan asked, struggling to understand the man’s actions before him. "Exactly. I was doing everything to make sure you followed through with the agreement," the lawyer responded, crossing his arms with a firm gesture. "Hayala had an order, and I had to obey." At that moment, Morgan closely observed the necklace Oliver wore under his open shirt. A spark of recognition ignited in his mind. "What the hell are you talking about?" Morgan retorted indignantly. "Was killing Hanna part of one of those missions? Were you following orders from Liara?" "Of course not! I already told you, I’ll explain everything calmly," the lawye

    132: A Troublesome Encounter**The man furrowed his brow as he saw Hanna’s face, clearing his throat in confusion. “Who are you?” he asked, stepping back hesitantly. “My name is Hanna, Hanna Ortiz,” she said calmly, analyzing the man from head to toe. There was something familiar about him, as if she had seen him before. Removing her glove, she extended her hand to greet him, but he refused. “Heavens…” he murmured, averting his eyes and turning his back on her. Outside, Murilo and Misaluna waited, filled with concern. “I have to take care of something quickly,” Murilo told Misaluna, grabbing his phone and stepping away to make a call. “So, who was the girl in the photo?” he whispered to himself. “What are you talking about? And who are you? You can’t be here without authorization,” Hanna warned, her firm voice cutting through the silence of the laboratory. “You…” he sighed, putting his hands in his pockets, still confused. He glanced at Hanna under the disguise, his eyes full o

    **Chapter 133: Davis' Interest**They managed to calm Hanna down and followed her to the cafeteria, where they sat together.“Stay calm, alright?” Misaluna requested, while Murilo brought her a glass of water.“Explain it slowly so we can understand,” Murilo urged, restless as he stood next to Misaluna.“The truth is, I wasn’t supposed to marry Morgan, but Davis. However, he ran away, and to avoid financial damage to the Farrugia family, Morgan decided to marry me in his place. But he said it was temporary... and now Davis is back, just like Morgan said he would be. He’s going to hand me over to him... but from what I know of that man, he seems even worse than Morgan!” she whimpered in panic, and Murilo sighed with an awkward laugh.“Worse? Davis isn’t fit for marriage. I don’t like Morgan, but at least he has some maturity. Davis, on the other hand, was spoiled by Morgan after James died. I can understand Morgan, feeling guilty over his brother’s death, but he shouldn’t have raised J

    Chapter 134: Faster Than Expected**A heavy silence filled the room. Morgan stared at Davis for a long time, his eyes dark and malicious."No," Morgan finally replied, his voice firm and authoritative. "She’s not for you."Davis clenched his fists, his muscles tense. He knew something was off."Alright then, but only if you give me a good reason," Davis pondered. "You know... if I decide to go after her, I will. Women are easy to persuade," he remarked indifferently. "You should be content with your new wife, even though Hanna is... what she is! At least she has youth on her side.""I don’t have to explain who I am or what I feel or don’t feel," Morgan retorted. "Besides... when are you leaving?""Come on, isn’t this mansion mine too? Don’t I have the right to stay?" Davis asked skeptically."You ran from your responsibility," Morgan said sarcastically. "I thought you still wanted to have fun.""I would like to, but after getting cheated on..." Davis sighed, sitting restlessly. "How c

    Chapter 135: Hands That Caress**Davis rang the doorbell and patiently waited to be answered. He rang it several times until Lory finally opened the door. He stepped inside and found her still in her pajamas, yawning, clearly surprised by his presence as she had just woken up."Grandma Lory... I woke you up, didn’t I?" he sighed, giving her a warm and affectionate hug. "I arrived yesterday, and I want a family breakfast with everyone. So, in half an hour..." He stopped talking when he saw Hanna coming down the stairs. She was already dressed to leave for college, but froze at the sight of Davis."Good morning, Hanna," Davis greeted her cordially, but she tensed up, nearly panicking. He stepped away from Lory and approached Hanna."As my father’s wife, I want to invite you to a family breakfast. I don’t think it’s fair for you to stay in this mansion without any connection to us. That’s why I want to invite you to an important event—no jokes or games. I’d like you to be part of this br

    Chapter 136: Davis' Decision**Hanna couldn’t discern who had pulled her into the darkness of the room. She found herself blinded by the sudden change of light, disoriented and unsure of what to expect. When the light flicked on, as quick as a flash, she saw Davis sitting in an armchair. His firm yet calm voice echoed through the room: “Hello... wife Hanna Ortiz.” Hanna turned, her heart pounding in her chest. Davis watched her intently, his relaxed posture contrasting with the tension in the air. “What are you...” Hanna began to speak, but her voice faltered. She didn’t know what to say, what to think. Davis smiled, a light and ironic smile. “I just wanted to look at your face,” he said softly. “I’ve been thinking... what’s really going on between you and my uncle?” Hanna looked away, nervous. “We’re married...” she mumbled, but the answer didn’t seem to satisfy him. Davis tilted his head, his eyes fixed on her. “Yes, yes, you are... but why do I feel like something’s not r

    Chapter 137: Connections and SchemesThe vast library in Morgan's mansion always seemed like the best and most ideal place for private conversations that would never be discovered. And it wasn’t just Morgan who thought so. Davis, now seated in a soft leather armchair, watched Liara and Maya sitting in front of him on another sofa, both with suspicious looks directed at him. Davis, by no means, would be considered an ally for them.“Well... at least you two can tell me everything from the beginning,” he sighed, clasping his fingers and fixing them with a sharp gaze.And so the conversation began. It lasted over an hour as Liara enthusiastically recounted everything, knowing Davis had something planned.After the conversation, Davis left the library and headed to his room. Quickly, he began changing clothes, as if preparing for an important occasion.Meanwhile, in the annex, Lory was helping Hanna with her twisted ankle. Hanna shouldn't have been walking without crutches, but it seemed

    Chapter 138: The Real Husband**Davis headed towards Hanna's annex. He didn’t knock on the door or ring the bell. Liara, with her cunning, had already given him a copy of the key. Now, he found himself inside the annex, a place that seemed deserted. It was already ten o’clock at night, and Hanna and Lory were surely already asleep.With silent steps, he climbed the stairs. It was as if a ghost slid over the steps, leaving no trace of his presence. Driven by an insatiable curiosity, Davis opened each door subtly, searching for Hanna.When he reached her room, his eyes lit up as he saw her sleeping serenely in bed. Hanna was lying on her side, facing the door. Her wavy hair was spread across the pillow, while her arms hugged her body, seeking warmth from the cold night. The window was open, and the curtain fluttered in the wind, allowing the cold air to enter the room.Davis cautiously approached, analyzing every detail of Hanna's face. Her beauty fascinated him, and he couldn’t help bu

However, there was still one place she dreaded visiting—the hospital room where her father lay. Despite her reluctance, Hanna knew she had to see him, understand his condition, and decide what to do. "Do you really want to see him?" Gabriel asked hesitantly as they stopped in front of the door to the room. Hanna remained silent, her head bowed, displaying apprehension and sorrow. 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

As she made the call, anxiety consumed her. “Office...” “Gabriel!” Hanna stammered, cutting him off before he could respond. “Hanna! How are you? Where are you?” He stood up, surprised, stumbling over his words. “I need you to solve a problem for me, right now,” she pleaded, anxious. “Hanna, how did you even manage to call me? What’s going on?” he asked, concerned. “Morgan is already getting sick from searching for you...” “No! I don’t want you to tell him where I am or how I’m doing,” she warned hesitantly, massaging her stomach. Suddenly, she remembered Morgan’s words about having children. “Alright... just tell me where you are, and I’ll be there by tonight if possible.” “Can you get here by tomorrow morning?

Carefully, she went down the stairs and began to wander aimlessly through the house's labyrinths until she heard screams and pleas for help.Hanna followed the noise and found the two guards dragging Heydi and Ruby. Her heart raced uncontrollably in her chest. What would she do? She watched Lins following behind the men as they took her grandmothers to some unknown place.They continued down to an underground area, an old stone corridor, damp and dark. The wet walls made the place feel even more frightening. Finally, they reached a room with prison bars on the door. Through a small window, Hanna could see what was happening inside.“Get the whip!” Lins ordered furiously.“Please…” Heydi whimpered in panic, kneeling on the floor beside Ruby, who kept her head down.“You had to break the rules and tell him, didn’t you?” L

She looked like a madwoman who hadn’t slept in days.“Mother...” Maya called cautiously as she approached, but Liara didn’t respond. “Are you okay?” she asked, extending her hand to try to touch her mother’s shoulder. Suddenly, Liara stared at her furiously.“Traitor!” Liara screamed shrilly, then stood up and rushed at Maya, who backed away, terrified.“Calm down, mother, it’s me!” Maya stammered.“I want you to die! Die! You and your cursed child!” Liara raged, clutching her head and messing up her own hair before grabbing a water pitcher from the desk. Maya, panicked, realized her mother’s intention and ran out of the room, still hearing the glass shatter against the door.Maya collapsed to the floor, her legs trembling, hands covering her face in horror. She then crawled away from her mother’s door, retreating into her

    Chapter 162: Everything in My Hands?As soon as the two women introduced themselves, Hanna was surprised, not knowing they existed.“What’s going on here?” she asked, confused.“We don’t have much time to explain,” Heydi said anxiously. “But do you remember how you were raised here?”Hanna shook her head in denial.“Girl... you don’t remember because you were on controlled medication when you were younger. Lins lied to your mother, saying you had a disease due to congenital problems.”“Me? But I don’t have any health problems,” Hanna said, thoughtfully.“Yes... Lins made up that lie just to keep you locked up until you turned eighteen and could serve his plan,” Heydi explained. “I thought you were free from this torment, but it seems he never stopped searching for you.”“What are you trying to say?” Hanna asked, growing more confused.“That... we are all daughters of Lins,” Ruby revealed. “There is no other lineage in our family apart from his.”Hanna instantly understood what she mea

    **Chapter 161: Ortiz Castle**Hanna decided to go with Lins that same day. Despite wanting to return, she was afraid of facing Davis again and feared he might discover her pregnancy and that she hadn’t lost the baby. "For my child’s life, I’d rather go..." she sighed to herself in front of the bathroom mirror. At that moment, she longed for a peaceful place. At the same time, her brother crossed her mind, but she didn’t know if she should tell Lins about the child’s existence. Even so, she still didn’t fully trust Lins, but he seemed like the safest option to protect herself at that moment, especially since she believed Morgan was now closer to Maya. Morgan had found out which country Lins had traveled to, but it no longer mattered since he was already leaving the country on another aircraft, and Morgan couldn’t track him anymore. After landing, they drove to an old city. With many well-preserved, picturesque old houses, it was a populous place with warm and cheerful people. H

    **Chapter 160: Lins, My Father?**“How is her health?” the raspy, grating voice of the elderly man echoed in Hanna’s ears. “She’s in quite a weakened state,” the doctor explained. “It seems like she’s been neglected for a long time, which has made her frail. She has a cut on her leg that needs attention because it’s deep enough to get infected, but that’s not even the most critical thing. She’s pregnant.” When the doctor revealed this, Lins raised his eyebrows. “Yes…” he sighed, restless. “I heard she’s married to an important man.” “What do you want me to do regarding the child?” the doctor asked calmly. “Nothing. What do you think should be done?” Lins asked, indifferent. “I thought you might want to terminate the pregnancy,” the doctor commented. “I’m not considering that,” Lins replied firmly. “Let her have the baby. After investigating the hospital and the day she was there, I found out that her ‘perfect husband’ tried to terminate the pregnancy without her consent.

The room was in disarray, everything overturned, bed sheets strewn across the floor, and Davis furious as he threw the bracelet with the tracker far away.“How did this happen?” he asked indignantly.“This time...” Rudan sighed, pretending to be anxious about the situation. “It seems she really managed to escape,” he added, as Davis stared at him in rage, circling him.“You never took your eyes off her, and suddenly...” Davis murmured suspiciously.“Suddenly what?” Rudan retorted. “My job is to take care of your security, not play the role of Hanna’s husband while you act like a spoiled brat and womanizer. If you want to throw the blame on me, go ahead! But it wasn’t me who made false promises and mistreated her.”“Damn it! Are you against me now?” Davis asked indignantly.“You seem blind,” Rudan countered. “You’ve been completely oblivious to a life! Hanna was carrying a child
