Chapter 92: Slaps and Memories.

"Yes! You and... Danica!" Lory hesitated, the young woman's name hanging in the air like an accusation.

"I wasn't with her last night," Morgan defended himself, conviction in his voice coupled with uncertainty in his eyes. "I ended up drinking too much and... it seemed like something was wrong with the wine. I swore I would wake up with..." He pressed his lips together, the memory slipping from his grasp, leaving only a bitter taste of disgust at the thought of Maya.

"Wake up with whom?" Lory insisted, her eyes fixed on Morgan, searching for any sign of deceit.

"I don't know!" He sighed, frustrated by his own inability to remember. "Everything is confusing, and my head is pounding."

"You don't remember anything?" she questioned skeptically.

"Nothing!" Morgan responded vehemently, getting out of bed. "I don't remember seeing Danica yesterday."

He headed for the door, wrapping the sheet around his waist. Lory, meanwhile, pulled the sheets off the bed, rev

    Chapter 93: IndifferenceThe two men headed to Morgan's office, their footsteps echoing in the silence of the Farrugia mansion. Upon arrival, they settled into the armchairs, waiting for the boss to arrive. Oliver, cautious, had stashed Hanna's necklace in a safe place, avoiding any suspicion."He should be here by now, right?" Gantz questioned, his voice laden with impatience. He stood up and began pacing around the office, his eyes scrutinizing every detail.Suddenly, he paused in front of the bar. The old, rare bottle of red wine caught his attention. Without hesitation, he grabbed a glass and filled it to the brim."What are you doing?" Oliver asked, alarmed. "The boss will punish you if he catches you drinking on the job."Gantz ignored his friend, sitting on one of the stools with the glass in hand. He swirled the wine, appreciating its color and aroma, then took a generous sip."And I would miss out on this opportunity?" he murmured, a satisfied smile forming on his lips. "It w

I don’t want to waste time on superficial matters, especially with you meddling in my life for such trivial reasons!”“You’ve lost your mind, William Morgan!” Gantz shouted, still unsteady. “You’ve lost your mind and you’re going to fall hard! Big time!” He continued yelling as Oliver dragged him out, trying to quiet him.Meanwhile, Hanna was trying to concentrate on her work in the laboratory. What had happened to Gantz worried her, as did her brother’s situation. She worked tirel

I still have to go to the mansion now.”Oliver shook his head.“No, you don’t need to. I know very well what happened between you and Morgan. Do you think this is right?” he asked impartially.“Fine,” she sighed, anxious. “Let's talk in a more private place. There’s an office downstairs,” she said, crossing the large room and heading for a door near the stairs. Walking down a corridor, she reached the second door among the various ones there. They entered the office, where the furniture was still covered with white sheets.“

That same night, Morgan waited anxiously for her, pacing back and forth almost until dawn, feeling a tightness in his chest as he had a bad premonition. Then he found the invitation card that Hanna had received from Murilo, picked it up, and read the information about the retreat, the date, and the time.“He wants to take Hanna to a retreat that only has students?” Morgan smiled skeptic

"Everything was fine, why did she leave?" he asked, his voice heavy with worry and confusion.Lory, with her lips pressed together, hesitated before responding."She said things took an unexpected turn," she replied, lowering her voice and avoiding Morgan's gaze. "She didn't want to become the mistress of a married man, and that everything was a mistake."Lory's words echoed in Morgan's mind, making him relive the moment he encouraged her to drink wine. He put his hands on his head, restless and overwhelmed by a whirlwind of emotions."Lory, I need to apologize to her," he pleaded, his voice thick with guilt. "I need to see her, please!"Lory sighed, apprehensive, seeing the pain and disappointment in Morgan's eyes."William, I'm sorry," she said softly.

It was the first time he had reacted this way to Liara."Don't you dare interfere in my life, much less speak to Hanna Ortiz, especially after what you did last time. Wasn't that enough?" he asked, his voice tight but controlled.Liara then yanked her arm back forcefully, grimacing in pain. "Do you know what you're doing?" she asked, irritated."You should have limits! You shouldn't go around attacking people for any trivial reason! How long will you keep up this anger?" he reprimanded her firmly."Until the day you pay, because you know very well what you did! I will never accept what you did, Morgan! I will never accept the fact that you walked away unscathed after killing three people! You murderer!" she asserted, and Morgan leaned against the wall, fatigued, closing his eyes tightly."You're guilty! Why don't you just pay? You murderer..." Liara's voice w

She could barely tear her gaze away from his body until Morgan cleared his throat, snapping her out of her thoughts. “Mr. Morgan!” she exclaimed, pulling her arm away as if pouting.“How dare you touch me, especially when you’re in such an... indiscreet state?” she questioned, while he crossed his arms, making his chest even more prominent. Hanna's gaze wandered, and he raised an eyebrow, noticing her sly smile as she closed her eyes.“Me?” she stammered, her mind blank. “I wasn’t doing anything. I just wanted to tell you I had finished the summary... But when I saw you like this...” she whispered, lowering her eyes, “I... I just gave up.”“Alright,” he replied, his tone short and cold, devoid of any emotion. “Good night.” He turned his back to her, his

She pulled him into the room, leaving Maya stunned on the other side of the door.Hanna led him to the bed and pushed him forcefully, making him fall onto it, bewildered by her boldness. She then rushed to the door, peeking through the keyhole until she saw Maya stomping away, furious after yet another frustrating night."Heavens... will she ever give up?" Hanna wondered, still watching through the keyhole. Suddenly, she noticed Morgan's hands resting on the doorframe around the keyhole."Explain yourself now!" He demanded, his voice calm, showing he was sober."You're not drunk?" She asked, turning around and facing his intense gaze that made her freeze and close her eyes."Do I seem drunk after half a bottle of wine?" he asked, irritated but in a low tone."Sorry, Mr. Morgan, so

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.

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.

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

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.

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 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?"
