**Chapter 25: The Housekeeper and Her Plan for Hanna's Escape."I thought I was dealing with someone... well... you know, I am a specialist in skin diseases, cellular diseases, and I see that she has a cold," he commented, approaching Hanna. "She is nothing like Morgan's diagnosis suggests; it seems she doesn't have any disease, especially not the rare kind that's hard to miss.""Doctor, please..." Hanna pleaded, trying to stand up."I brought some medicine in my bag, although it’s not what I expected, she is still very ill," he said, helping Hanna to her feet.After examining her, he administered an injection to boost her immunity, while Lory wiped the dust off her face with a wet cloth and water in a basin."It seems that being stuck here is not doing her any good. When she is up, take her to the garden. Seeing some greenery will do you good too, Lory. Even though the room is ventilated, it’s still somewhat closed off, which can make her even sicker.""So she needs to go out more fro
**Chapter 26: Morgan Finally Discovers Hanna**While keeping her attention fixed on Morgan's office balcony, Lory sat next to Hanna, who now seemed quite quiet and disheartened."You seem to have your thoughts far away, Miss Hanna," Lory commented, seeing the girl sigh deeply."I've been thinking about some things I've seen and about some unanswered questions.""If I can help...""Maybe... What I'd like to know is about Morgan and his ex-mother-in-law. Why does she continue living in this house? It seems no one likes her.""Well, it's true that no one likes her, but we have no choice. She is the wife of a very important man in the city, and it's the same man who allows Morgan to finance important research and make necessary acquisitions.""But what Morgan does is good, right? Or is it something illegal?" Hanna asked, confused."Hanna, everything Morgan does is legal and has records, but... he knows that everything can be altered and falsified, and even his research can be sold, and he
**Chapter 27: Hanna and Morgan Converse CivillyMorgan couldn’t contain his surprise upon seeing the girl's face. At the same time, he was speechless."Your niece?" Morgan asked, frowning."Yes..." Lory confirmed with a sigh."But I thought you were alone. How do you have a sister now?""She's a recently discovered sister with a beautiful daughter. I didn't know I had one, but I'm so happy that Dad had another daughter besides me." Lory spoke with an ironic tone. "And it's so good to have someone to talk to. I was feeling lonely in that annex since Hanna doesn't like to talk much with me. So, I decided to invite my niece." She continued speaking while Morgan remained silent, following her to the girl."Lory... what are you doing?" Hanna thought, closing her apprehensive eyes. "Drag him to hell, not to me, Lory!" she screamed in her mind with such force that her heart raced aggressively with each second he and Lory got closer."Mr. Morgan, this is my niece Danica. If you don't mind, I'd
**Chapter 28: Does My Husband Have a Lover?**"I’ve heard some things about you," Hanna said coldly, her eyes fixed on Morgan."I imagine it wasn't anything good, coming from that woman." He shrugged, pretending indifference. "But your aunt knows me very well. You shouldn't be swayed by the words of someone who knows nothing about me or my life.""It's true that the only thing that woman wants is your money," she commented coldly, observing Hanna's reaction.A skeptical smile formed on Hanna's lips."Of course, Mr. Morgan. You're right. She’s a greedy woman with no values. I hope you can separate from her as soon as possible."Morgan felt satisfied with Hanna's response."I'm glad you don't let yourself be influenced by that woman's words."Hanna ignored him, hiding a playful smile. He still hadn’t recognized her, which gave her a flood of wild ideas."Well, I’ll go back to the annex now, Aunt Lory and Mr. Morgan," she announced indifferently."No!" Morgan exclaimed. "From today on, yo
Chapter 29: Hanna Realizes Her Feelings**Even though she didn’t want to, her body was weak, and she felt her eyelids so heavy that she could barely open her eyes. But she could feel someone carrying her in their arms.“Call the doctor to examine her,” Morgan announced as he headed toward the mansion’s entrance.“Let a security guard carry her!” Liara ordered, but Morgan ignored her request as Lory anxiously followed him.“Mr. Morgan, take her to my room; I can take care of her there, please!” Lory pleaded, distressed.As they followed Morgan, Maya stopped before entering, holding her mother’s arm, who looked at her confused.“Who is this woman? You didn’t mention there was someone else here, let alone someone so young,” Maya commented apprehensively.“It was a surprise for me too,” Liara confessed.“It seems Morgan feels something for her. Did you notice the way he looked at her when I arrived, as if he had to explain something?” Maya asked, pouting.“You’re overthinking. I’ll observe
Chapter 30: A Silent Attraction**"No, that's not his wife, but her twin sister, Maya," Lory clarified. "And let me tell you, she’s after Morgan.""When he was married to Mia, Maya always tried to take advantage of him," the housekeeper explained, and Hanna clenched her fists, overcome with a wave of jealousy. "She’s a complicated type, and you shouldn't let her get close to Morgan at all.""Lory... I may not be worthy of being married to him, but I won't allow him to betray me either," Hanna’s voice was firm, filled with determination. "I didn't get married to watch him have fun with others. Morgan won’t have an easy path to that woman.""That’s right! Don’t let your husband fall into another’s arms," Lory encouraged her, admiring her strength. "It’s good that you’re a strong woman, Hanna. I hope everything can be resolved soon.""There’s nothing to resolve," Hanna retorted with a hint of irony. "I just want the time to pass so I can be free. Or maybe I'll change my mind if Morgan fal
Chapter 31: Hanna Declares War on Maya**Hanna watched anxiously, noticing Maya's slow movements as she attempted to press her lips against Morgan's, who did not react. Hanna glanced around as if searching for something until she found a slipper."There's something you don't know about me, William Morgan, you traitor! I have perfect aim!" she declared to herself, aiming at Maya and hurling the slipper with force, striking Maya’s head hard."Ouch..." Maya protested, feeling the pain as Morgan helped her up, looking around to see where the slipper had come from. But Hanna had already hidden behind the curtains, though he knew it had come from the balcony where Hanna had been."Are you alright?" Morgan asked, examining her forehead with a red mark on the side."It hurts a lot. Who threw this at me?" Maya asked dramatically."I don't know..." Morgan sighed, picking up the soft pink velvet slipper while glaring suspiciously at the balcony."Do slippers usually fly? Or was it someone who doe
Chapter 32: Morgan and His Suspicions**"Are you alright, Miss Danica? You seem unwell," Morgan commented, studying her with concern."Yes, I’m feeling very..." Before Hanna could finish her sentence, Lory shoved her forcefully out the door, causing her to lose her balance. Hanna leaned on Morgan, who caught her in his arms. She felt his hand hover over her waist before he pulled away. Both of them heard the door slam loudly, and Lory disappeared."Well..." Morgan muttered as Hanna jumped back, distancing herself. "Whatever you were going to say, your aunt clearly disapproved," he remarked as she smiled awkwardly."Let's go," Morgan continued. "The first place I thought of taking you is for breakfast. Consider yourself privileged; I haven’t taken anyone to that place in years.""Then it must be quite special," Hanna commented, hopeful."Yes, indeed.""And do you think it’s appropriate to take me?""You fit in perfectly there. You don’t seem like a wild girl," he observed, eyeing her cu
Chapter 186: The Dream of the BeginningThe day of the trip had finally arrived. Hanna would return with her entire family, along with Morgan's family, and, most importantly, Lory, who absolutely did not want to miss this moment.It was still morning when the suitcases were being brought and placed in two cars, but there was still someone who would be traveling with them. Even after all the intrigue, Davis was there. He couldn’t even look Hanna in the eye—not out of disrespect, but after the numerous times he had been to prison and appeared in the newspapers, his dignity was completely shattered; he only had respect left.Rudan, on the other hand, had distanced himself from Davis, maintaining only a friendly relationship, but he still showed up. He parked in front of the Farrugia mansion, but before entering, something caught his attention.He got out of the car and walked toward the woman sitting on a step across the way, in front of the Farrugia mansion."Don't you ever get tired of
Chapter 185: Back to Me"Are you drunk? You already know that I don’t love you anymore, not after you let me be taken by that bastard.""I didn’t think it would get worse. I gave you to him to save you from something worse, but Davis was an idiot...""So letting me go was the only way you found to protect me? Seriously?" she asked skeptically, with teary eyes."At that moment?" He sighed heavily, staring at the ceiling while she rested against his chest. "I was stuck in a wheelchair, couldn’t do anything for you, I didn’t even know if I’d be able to walk again..." he confessed. "Back then, you couldn’t even fight for yourself, not without resources. But money isn’t everything, Hanna. What do you plan to do? Live your whole life alone while our son needs a father figure? When he grows up, he’ll miss me and wish I was around, and I want to be a present father and husband. Just let me do that.""Why?" Hanna muttered indignantly, hitting his chest. He just held her in his arms."Like it o
Cap. 184: A Real Dream"What’s going on?" Gabriel asked as Hanna ran back."Where is he? How could they have disappeared?" she asked desperately, looking to her grandmothers, who were clearing their throats. "You!" she pointed accusingly at the two ladies."But... what do they have to do with it?" Gabriel asked, concerned, heading toward the bedroom."They were acting strange, they were the last ones to enter the room. I left both of them sleeping, and now I’ve lost them..." Hanna muttered, lamenting."No..." Gabriel sighed thoughtfully as he heard the lullaby. "They’re still here, I can hear the crib’s music. They must have moved them somewhere else." Gabriel figured it out as he analyzed where the sound was coming from, then opened the bedroom door, freezing before entering.When Hanna got closer, she almost stumbled backward in shock."How? Is this a dream?" she asked confused as she saw Morgan lying on the bed, sleeping with the newborn baby resting on his chest and his son beside
Chapter 183: Kidnapping Morgan?The two elderly women watched the man with curiosity."What are we going to do? I'm sure it's him, right?" Heydi asked, while Ruby looked around as if she was about to do something suspicious."It's definitely him, and it's clear he's suffering because of that stubborn girl," Ruby said."I've got an idea!" Heydi exclaimed, smiling slyly at Ruby."What crazy scheme is your mind coming up with now? It's already bad enough that we're in a bar," Ruby said, and then she pointed at Morgan, who was unconscious at the bar. He was still mumbling something.They listened carefully and realized he was lamenting something, the death of someone. They kept listening and discovered it was because of his son's death, which made Heydi even more determined to carry out her plan.The two women helped Morgan to his feet, though they nearly collapsed under his weight. They didn’t have the strength to lift such a large man, but they managed to drag him out of the bar, despit
Chapter 182: The Pressure of Not KnowingHanna’s grandmothers watched her closely over the days. Gabriel told them everything that had happened in Hanna’s life while she was married to Morgan. Who was Morgan? They wanted to know every detail of it all.Days went by as they saw Hanna struggling, wearing herself out, and each day the baby was getting closer to being born. Morgan had no clue where she was, and he couldn’t even figure out where Gabriel was. All he knew was that Gabriel had become a prosecutor. Although growing anxious, Haniel was the only bridge still keeping him grounded. He had returned to the mansion, and now there was a new bed in the room where Haniel slept. Both he and the boy were arranging toys on a new shelf."When is Willy coming home?" Haniel asked excitedly."Oh... he’ll be back. You’re going to be his big brother," Morgan replied as the boy smiled brightly."It’s going to be so good to have a little brother, I’m excited..." he sighed, thrilled."Yes... it’s g
Chapter 181: Consequences of Every ActionAfter the assassination attempt, Liara woke up three days later in a hospital bed, her life precariously hanging by threads. Morgan, consumed by rage and the need for justice, wished with all his might that she survive just so she could pay for everything. Her admission to a maximum-security psychiatric hospital was a one-way road.Frustration took hold of Morgan as he faced Gabriel's office, now sealed. The "Sold" sign felt like a taunt, a reminder that his target had slipped through his fingers. Anger bubbled inside him. Gabriel had planned everything carefully, disappearing without a trace. Where would he go? What would be his next move? With each question, Morgan's obsession intensified.While Morgan pored over the clues, trying to figure out where Gabriel could be hiding, Gabriel adjusted his tie in front of a mirror in an airport bathroom. The anticipation was palpable as he waited for the two ladies.Soon, he would be reunited with his
Chapter 180: Hanna's CounterattackHanna asked Mr. Ford for help to leave the mansion without being followed. He then showed her another exit from the vast estate at the boundaries of his property, leaving Hanna breathless at the sheer scale of it all."You must be wondering how I have all this, considering I stopped being a Farrugia, right?" Mr. Ford asked, his eyes shining with pride. It was as if he had read her mind. "As Luna's friend and savior, it's obvious my daughter tells you everything... I got all this through the divorce, in the division of assets. Morgan took over everything after I left and managed to multiply what he had by over twenty times what I currently have—and it’s still growing," he commented, a faint smile on his lips.Hanna grew thoughtful. This man, who initially seemed so distant and cold, now revealed a complexity that surprised her."You really seem happy for him," she remarked, breaking the silence."Ah... he’s my son. I've always been very proud of and l
Chapter 179: Morgan's AttackGabriel arrived at the Ford mansion unannounced. Hanna was worried about the urgency with which her uncle had contacted her; she even thought something might have happened to his patients."Gabriel..." Hanna sighed, full of guilt."No suspense, what's going on?" Her voice was firm, demanding an immediate response."First of all, I'm sorry. I didn't know what to do, and Haniel needed a guardian present..." His eyes avoided hers, evading her accusing gaze."What did you do?" Her voice was a whisper, laced with anger."I gave Morgan rights as Haniel's guardian, and now he's taken him to the mansion," he explained, and Hanna paled. Her lips pressed into a thin line."What do you mean?" Her voice was a low growl."What you heard—Morgan took Haniel to his house earlier today," Gabriel seemed to shrink under her fury."Why this sudden decision?" Her voice was cold and calculating."He wants to see you. That’s why. He said you can fight for custody in court, but y
Cap.178: My Way of Bringing You"It's not like I never wanted to, but when you have a child with such a severe illness, you're afraid the next one will suffer the consequences. But I don't have that fear anymore, not in the situation I'm in. That's why I'm going to have a child and do my best to ensure they have a happy life by my side and with the woman I love," he said with conviction, trying to maintain a serious posture, but his eyes betrayed the intensity of his emotions. He knew she was listening and misunderstanding everything."My God... how you've changed and... why are you opening up like this?" Luna asked, startled by the intensity in Morgan's voice. "Besides, I thought you loved Hanna," she said indignantly."I spent so much time looking for her, and now I know she's fine and doesn't want anything to do with me. Am I so insignificant that I should humiliate myself chasing someone who runs and hides?" he said indifferently, but his voice carried a tone of resentment. Then h
