"If that woman comes to this place, she must stay in the annex and not frequent the mansion!" she asserted. Morgan sighed impatiently.
"Are you afraid that I might give her a chance?" Morgan smiled skeptically.
"That's not it. After all, it would be hard for you to stay in a woman's life after what you did to my daughter's and grandson's lives. That's why I know if you take the risk, you'll just ruin more lives."
Morgan sighed heavily, swallowing his words without arguing with her.
"Think what you want; if that's the case... you're right then."
"Of course I am."
"When will you be able to forgive me for that? Are you going to torment me for my entire life? Will you never let this heal?" he asked, distressed.
"Never! Morgan... neither you nor I will have peace with this!" she confessed, pressing her lips together with bitterness.
He stared at her without reaction, adjusting his tie at the same time. Despite being a much larger man than Liara, who was of average height, he never dared to touch her or even say all the things he wanted to say. What he felt inside his chest was much worse than the words she spoke.
After the argument, he stood by his bedroom window, watching from a distance and waiting to see the car taking Hanna home. As soon as the car left, he sighed with relief, as if an agony had come to an end.
Hanna, on the other hand, once she left the confines of that enormous place, finally took that stifling veil off her face and breathed at last.
When she arrived home, she collapsed onto her bed, but it was not yet time to rest. She changed her clothes and quickly left the house, locking everything up. Shortly after she left, a car stopped in front of her house.
"Is she home?" asked a hooded man.
"Supposedly, yes. We were told she had just come back from a wedding," said the other, looking around the quiet, simple neighborhood, but there was no one on the street.
Hanna, meanwhile, continued her journey, anxious to see if she had managed to pay on time. Almost half an hour later, she stopped in front of a large building. She went up to the tenth floor. Already known there, she just passed through the reception and headed to the place she knew well.
She stayed there for only ten minutes before finally leaving and heading to the bus stop. After spending all the money she had, she had nothing left but the basics to take the bus and walk a few minutes.
While waiting for the bus, she laughed at herself. Just thinking about how pathetic she was, even after marrying a rich man and now being part of a family she could read about in the newspapers.
After taking the bus, she headed home. However, when she arrived, she wondered if that place was really her home. The only thing she had inherited from her mother. There were so many firefighters in front, and the large flame still spread. All the neighbors stood at a safe distance.
"Neighbor!" someone shouted, running towards her, followed by other concerned people. "Heavens... we thought you were inside," they commented while Hanna observed everything without reaction.
"What happened?" she asked with trembling lips, watching everything burn.
"We don't know how the fire started. Did you leave anything on when you left?" the person asked.
"No, I've been away for a long time and... When I got back, I left immediately..." she stammered, letting her tears fall. "My things... All the memories of my mother, everything..." she lamented breathlessly.
It was already getting dark when the fire was finally controlled and everything was extinguished, but there was nothing that could be saved. She sat on the curb on the other side of the road, facing her house, and watched with sadness.
"You must be careful," an elderly lady, supported by a cane, warned. "As they said, this fire was set deliberately. Someone might be trying to harm you. The police will investigate and collect evidence, but it's not safe for you to stay here. Besides, it's getting late. Do you have anywhere to go?"
Hanna just shook her head negatively, her eyes red.
"We know how difficult things must be for you right now. I assume you're also without money..."
"I'm fine!" she grumbled, getting up from the ground and wiping her face. But the lady held her hand and handed her an envelope.
"You can get by for two days. I know it hasn't been easy for you with everything you've been through since your mother died. Leaving early, coming back late, and barely resting to make ends meet. That's why I know with the loss of everything, you have nothing left. So, don't refuse and find a place to spend the night," she requested anxiously, showing concern.
"If... you notice these things, did you also see who entered my house?" Hanna asked suddenly, staring at her.
But the lady, apprehensive, pressed her wrinkled lips together and stepped back. Hanna just smiled bitterly. It was the only answer she wanted. With the lady's reaction, she realized that she really had seen, but couldn't tell.
"I'll find a place to spend the night. Thank you for the help. I promise I'll repay the money as soon as I get paid, okay?" she asked softly and without concern.
"You don't need to. Just go and take care of yourself. I don't want anything bad to happen to you."
Hanna nodded and turned away, walking alone and aimlessly. She walked more than necessary just to clear her mind before finding a place to sleep. She told herself not to cry, even with her entire life wiped out by the fire.
That same night, the will's lawyer arrived at the mansion looking for Morgan.
"What's going on?" Morgan asked as soon as he saw the man, who immediately showed him a photo.
"Where is she?" the lawyer asked, worried.
"What do you mean?" Morgan frowned, confused. "Don't tell me this is that woman's house."
"Where is she?" the lawyer insisted again, sharply.
"How should I know? I didn't even know this had happened."
"If she's dead, you know what could happen, right? And it hasn't even been twenty-four hours since she married you, which could result in something even worse for your family. You better find out where she is and make sure she's okay."
Within seconds, Morgan's family entered the room with the news. The lawyer initially suspected them, but then realized it might not have been them. After all, it wouldn't be beneficial for any of them.

Both stood in front of the ruin, walking among what was left, finding even traces of the wedding dress, documents, and Hanna's belongings."It looks like someone was trying to kill her, don't you think?" Abigail asked."Definitely," he confirmed, apprehensive. "But this is really bad. I have to keep this marriage for at least three years, and we barely managed twenty-four hours.""True, like it or not, it will be better to keep her under our nose; otherwise, our family will sink with her.""But we still have to find out where she is.""Couldn't you call her?""I did, the lawyer did too, but she doesn't answer," he commented, restless.

**Ch.7: The Security Guards Fetch Hanna**At noon, after her shift, Hanna sat in the cafeteria, opening the email Morgan had sent her. A skeptical laugh accompanied each line her eyes scanned. The supposed assassination attempt he referred to served merely as a pretext for a list of impositions that ultimately catered to his own interests.Hanna would live in the Farrugia mansion, but not exactly in the same house as the Farrugias. An annex, like a second separate house, was her designated place. Access to this part of the property was through another door, completely independent of the main entrance. To see any family member, Hanna would need to leave the annex, cross the garden to the main entrance, and request permission."What does he want? To keep me a prisoner?" she questioned herself skeptically with every line she read. "Having to keep hiding my face... Well, that won't be bad. This way, I'll avoid him developing any interest in me." She sighed thoughtfully, briefly recalling M

She hesitated for a moment before asking for the harmful pink substance.With a grin from ear to ear, the bouncing girl returned to the car. The security guards informed Morgan about the stop at the pharmacy and the route taken, while Hanna discreetly applied a white ointment to her face, creating white spots that covered something.Excited, she sighed upon arriving at the place that reminded her of her unhappy marriage. Suddenly, Murilo came to mind. Deep down, she felt guilty for rejecting him, but she was already married, with no options.

A malicious look formed on her face as she witnessed his misery.“I hope you get news of him soon! After all, I pay you to be efficient!” Morgan asserted over the phone, reading yet another negative response about the search for his son Davis.“Why are you still looking for Davis? You’re already married to her,” Liara asked, interrupting Morgan. He huffed and looked away.“What are you doing here? I’m amazed how a woman married to a congressman has so much time to meddle in my life,” he grumbled irritably.“How could I leave you alone? I have to make sure everything goes according to my wishes,” Liara replied.“Are you pleased?” Morgan asked with irony.“So far, yes,” she responded with indifference. Morgan laughed cynically and remained silent. “So? Is she at the mansion yet?”“Who?” he asked, bored.“Who else but your disfigured wife? Have you had the pleasure of kissing her y

She wanted to know what her benefits would be and what she could do. After changing into one of the fine silk nightgowns that seemed to caress her body, she sat comfortably in front of the vanity, brushing her hair and thinking. In front of her were all the products she had brought from the pharmacy.“Well... I need to practice a little, right? If they believe in these things, I should do my best so they don’t find out the truth,” she murmured ironically, starting to apply things to her face. In a few minutes, she managed to make it all look naturally pink, purple, gooey, and repulsive. She laughed euphorically, seeming a bit mad with the result, until someone knocked on her door.“Heavens...” she murmured, startled, looking at the door with apprehension. “Are there ghosts here?” she asked herse

As I said, inside you are rotten and bitter. I would never make a deal with a woman like you. I don't need to bring anyone down, after all... as you said, I am married to an important man. If I want money, it won't be so difficult since they are billionaires. So, I have to know the limits of my greed and know what I have in my hands and use it.

And you still think you have the right to talk about me!""The only one who stinks here is you, and you will soon know hell.""Yes, yes!

Every medication, every wardrobe drawer was meticulously examined. A sense of unease hung in the air."Something is very wrong here," she thought, frowning. "None of these medications are what Halana used to treat her condition. In fact, some of them could be problematic for such sensitive and delicate skin."Confusion gripped Lory. She proceeded to the bathroom, where she found a new bandage still in its packaging. It was like a puzzle with pieces that didn't fit, a mystery she was trying to unravel.Not finding Hanna in the room, Lory descended the stairs, guided by the appetizing aroma of something cooking. Her suspicions were confirmed when she found the girl in the kitchen, her back turned, humming while stirring a steaming pot.Lory sat silently, observing Hanna intently.

Morgan questioned as he walked down the hallway, with Lory trying to keep up with his pace."Because she's your wife! Why don't you try to get along?""Lory, we're not going to have this conversation here. Besides, I have no reason to relate to that kind of woman. After all, we have different interests.""But at the very least, you should treat her better! There are no servants in that annex, she can't take care of everything by herself!" Lory asserted, reprimanding him.Morgan sighed heavily and extended his hand to Lory."Come! I have to leave for something important now. I received some good news. We can talk in the car. I’d like to show you something," he announced, leading Lory with him to the car."Alrigh

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?

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.

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.

**Chapter 158: The Disappearance of Hanna**That same morning, Davis had already realized Hanna was missing. 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
