Chapter 82: Watched

The 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

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

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

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

Despite her hunger, she pushed the laptop away and rested her head on the table, feeling exhausted and filled with worry."I'm so close..." she sighed with a gentle smile. "Soon, you'll receive proper treatment and be able to live again, little brother..." she whispered, closing her eyes slowly and drifting off to sleep. Meanwhile, Morgan had gone to the kitchen and asked one of the maids to prepare a meal for Hanna, remembering he had interrupted her before she could start her lunch.Morgan didn't let the maid deliver the tray. He took it from her and carried it himself. The food exuded a tantalizing aroma, and he knew Hanna would wake up instantly with the hunger she was feeling. He placed the tray next to her, the hot steam rising from the food. Before leaving, he picked up the box with the new phone and set it on the table, accompanied by a note with a brief handwritten message.As Morgan predicted, H

    Chapter 88: WineHanna waited for a few minutes, watching each one pass anxiously. With firm steps, she headed to the door. As expected, it was locked. But she had already prepared. With the secret key she had taken from Lory, she unlocked the door and locked it again from the outside, careful not to alert Liara.On the way to Morgan's office, her heart was pounding. She wondered what awaited her. She had no idea how Maya planned to spend the night with him. One option that crossed her mind was getting him drunk.Entering the office, Hanna sighed in frustration. Morgan was there, but not as she had expected. He had been drinking, and not lightly. Sitting at the edge of a side table, arms crossed and gaze lost in the void, he seemed a different man—worn and distant.Hanna approached cautiously. Morgan's eyes, once bright and penetrating, were now fixed on her with an indecipherable expression. His loosened tie and partially open shirt revealed part of his chest, and his breathing was h

My body is burning.”Hanna pressed her lips together, looking away, her face now flushed.“You feel th

He was completely lost in the sensation of taking Hanna's body while she gripped his shoulders and moaned softly between their kisses, the heat seeming to burn them both.Morgan lifted her from the bed when he realized how damp she was from the sweat caused by the effects of the wine, their lips still joined, and carried her to the window. The moonlight bathed their bodies, creating a halo of sensuality around them. He sat her on the windowsill, his strong muscles pressing against the softness of her skin.Hanna wrapped her arms around him, her fingers entangled in his hair. This time, with more voracity, she explored every corner of his mouth. Their tongues intertwined in a frenetic rhythm, while their hands roamed each other's bodies with urgency.Hanna moaned loudly, her body twisting in ecstasy, and Morgan felt her warmth against him as she

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

Her hands trembled like a green twig with everything that was happening. 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. She then crawled away from her mother’s door, retreating into her

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
