Chapter 79: Oops, Forgot the Disguise."I told you to make sure she didn't leave! And now there's some jerk who thinks he can get close to her," Morgan scolded Lory, pulling her into another room to talk."But she has nothing to do with anyone! Are you jealous by any chance?" Lory questioned, trying to free herself from his grip."I won't tolerate being betrayed, that's all! If she wants to be with someone, it will only be after the divorce. Nothing will stop her then," Morgan said firmly, his eyes filled with anger."Ohhh..." Lory sneered, shaking her head. "Mr. Moralist! And you're running after my niece and having an affair with her, so it doesn't matter if Hanna is betrayed, does it?"Morgan mumbled, not knowing what to respond. Lory held back a laugh, amused by his hypocrisy."That's beside the point..." he sighed, uncomfortable with the situation.Lory stared at him, stunned."You and Danica are together?" she finally asked, gaping.Morgan sat calmly on the bed, interlacing his
Chapter 80: It Can’t Last Long."Where have you been?" Morgan asked Danica, suddenly pulling her close to the table. He lifted her and set her down on the solid wood surface."Morgan..." she protested, trying to push him away while feeling her body shiver with his lips on her neck, placing kisses. "Heavens..." she shut her eyes, cursing herself for forgetting to cover her face.Suddenly, Morgan pulled back, his eyes curious as he sniffed her scent. He squinted, and his memories were triggered by the perfume. Suddenly, Hanna’s memory came to mind, and he stared at Danica."Why do you smell the same?" he asked, suspicious.Hanna froze, still sitting on the table, not knowing what to say. At that moment, she had made a big mistake.Morgan grabbed a lock of her hair and once again inhaled the delicate scent."What are you talking about?" she asked, stammering. "And who are you talking about?""You have the same scent as Hanna Ortiz. What’s going on?" he asked, backing away."No..." Morgan
Chapter 81: Solving the PuzzleOliver and Gantz were spiraling with the situation."How about...," sighed Gantz. "We've never seen the two together. Of course, things are already strange there.""I need a vacation," sighed Oliver."Me too," replied Gantz, banging his fists on the steering wheel."My only answer is that they are the same person, that's all! Even if one is the housekeeper's niece and the other... the other might be of some royal origin, I don't know!" grumbled Oliver."We have to separate things; we don't know who is Misaluna's friend, and we don't know who Danica is. We've never seen them together, but I even thought that maybe... Danica was the woman who hangs out with Misaluna, but..." Oliver sighed, fatigued, as he got out of the car. "I'm going to the office now to talk to Morgan about what we've discovered about Davis."Oliver stretched his arm, grabbed a folder from the back seat, and got out of the car. He headed to the mansion, going to Morgan's office. Enterin
Chapter 82: WatchedThe air was charged with electricity as Morgan approached Hanna, his eyes locked onto hers. The silence was deafening, broken only by the sound of Morgan's ragged breathing. Hanna clutched the kimono to her body, trying to hide, but it was useless. Morgan had already seen her."I don't need to try on these clothes," she stammered, her voice weak. "It's not necessary."Morgan sighed, his eyes traveling over Hanna's body for a moment."Actually," he said, his voice hoarse, "we have nothing to hide. You've already seen me."Morgan's words hit Hanna like a punch in the stomach. She remembered the night she had seen him naked, the humiliation she felt, the confusion that had overwhelmed her."That was an accident," she murmured, her eyes filling with tears. "I was just trying to...""Recover something that wasn't yours?" Morgan interrupted, his voice dripping with irony. "I don't understand your relationship with Hanna. She's still my wife, and if you want to stay close
Chapter 83: Panic at the Farrugia Mansion**Gantz and Oliver were keeping an eye on Hanna's annex, hopeful that Hanna would come out. Meanwhile, she was looking at herself in the mirror, laughing at herself, even feeling afraid of her appearance. Then she anxiously left to find the housekeeper Lory.As soon as Lory saw her, she let out a high-pitched scream, startled and clutching her chest."Calm down, Lory, it’s me, Hanna!" she said, worried about the housekeeper's reaction, who now showed great annoyance."You reckless girl!" Lory shouted, slapping Hanna’s shoulders, who cringed and begged her to stop. "This is worse than the last time!" she asserted, still hitting Hanna, who tried to dodge."Calm down! Okay? I just want to teach those employees a lesson... They were speaking ill of my mother, and it seems the mansion has never been the same since I appeared that way." She smiled, finding it amusing, sprawled on the sofa. Lory could barely look at her while she found it the funnies
Chapter 84: To Be or Not to Be.Morgan stomped up the stairs, his steps heavy with indignation. He went straight to Hanna's room and tried to open the door, which was locked."If you don’t want trouble, you better come out now!" Morgan asserted, banging hard on the door. "Hanna Ortiz, obey me or you'll never see another cent from me again!" He finished and waited with his arms crossed, knowing she would respond.Hanna got up from the corner of the bed, stomping her feet, and went to the door, opening it and facing Morgan. Their gazes were filled with anger. Morgan, however, wasn’t fazed by Hanna’s appearance, as he was the only one who saw through her ruse."How did you know it was me from the beginning?" she asked, confused."Miss Hanna, ghosts don’t exist, so there’s nothing to be afraid of," he asserted, grabbing her by the arm and dragging her downstairs.Now, Hanna and Lory were sitting on the couch, heads bowed, while Morgan glared at them. He was still massaging his temples, th
Chapter 85: PromisesShe remained silent until he opened the door to the room and entered with her. Hanna surveyed the dimly lit room, her head spinning with vertigo."What are you thinking?" she asked, pulling her hand away from his and stepping back."I want you to stay with me tonight, okay?" he requested in a calm voice.The limited light from the lamp highlighted his body, the fine linen shirt subtly outlining his form. He kept his gaze fixed on Hanna, waiting for a response while she remained distracted."In the same bed?" she stammered."Exactly," he confirmed, putting his hands in his pockets and slowly approaching her. He kissed her cheek softly, making the spot burn. Yet, she couldn't pull away.Morgan smiled slightly, taking his hands out of his pockets and wrapping his arms around her waist. He leaned in again, nearing her lips.Hanna instinctively backed away, feeling her stomach churn."If you're scared, stay with me tonight," he suggested again, while she tried to catch
Chapter 86: Proximity**Oliver and Gantz entered the annex, splitting up to search every corner and confirm if there was really only one Hanna. It didn't take more than ten minutes for them to realize that everything was empty, with only two rooms occupied."It's confirmed, Hanna is Danica!" Oliver commented, exiting the annex."And now, where do we go?""Well..." Oliver sighed. "Now that we no longer need to investigate Danica, we can go back to investigating Hanna's past. It's possible that there's something in this annex that might lead us to some clue." The two men headed to the university.Observing Hanna's every step without her noticing the disguise, Oliver and Gantz followed her to the university. Upon arrival, Hanna headed to the lab, staying there until nearly noon. The two men were already there, watching her and waiting for her next steps."Is Morgan monitoring her through the cameras?" Gantz asked Oliver as they watched through the second laptop connected to the lab's cam
