Nicole didn't plan on making things so easy for Bruno. For years, she had to pay for something she didn't do, while he wouldn't even listen to her. She remembered how he would enjoy her body and then reject and humiliate her in the worst way possible.

She would savor his caresses and his passion, making him believe that she had fallen for his charms. But when they reunited, she would test his luck, see if he had truly changed and was willing to do anything to win her love. He would have to prove it; she didn't want to fall into his trap and be imprisoned once again, that terrified her.

"What are you thinking about?" Bruno said, approaching her from behind and planting a kiss on her shoulder while rubbing her back. She, lost in her thoughts, stood on the terrace and smiled.

"I was thinking that you were right. The view from here is truly beautiful," she lied, not wanting to start an argument. She knew they would if she expressed her true thoughts.

    Alizza stood in front of the desk and immediately noticed the marks on Bruno's neck. The expression she made was not pleasant."What do you need?" Bruno asked, visibly annoyed by her presence. He couldn't stand her coming near him."As I mentioned before, I want to apologize to you. My behavior was not appropriate, and I am truly sorry," Alizza said."Yes, it wasn't," he replied with displeasure, wanting the girl to understand that she shouldn't approach him."I hope you can forgive me," she said, pouting in an attempt to soften him."It's forgotten, but remember that it must never happen again. You will be reassigned to another company; it's for the best so you can continue with your training," Bruno said."No, please, sir, let me stay here. I will learn from you and Mrs. Nicole. You both are the best. I promise I won't bother you again, and I won't disturb your presence here," Alizza pleaded."It's already decided. You will be notified as soon as I find a place for you.

    Bruno wondered what would happen if Nicole got pregnant again; perhaps then she would agree to marry him again. As for the religious marriage, they could renew their vows.It goes without saying that he put a lot of effort into it all night long.At dawn, Bruno got up, took a quick shower, and got ready for work. He had to make up for lost time the day before and reschedule all the postponed appointments.Nicole woke up shortly after, feeling very tired."Good morning, my sleeping beauty," Bruno greeted."Good morning, Mr. Leone," she replied."How did you sleep?" he asked with a laugh."To be honest, I didn't sleep much. There was something in the air that didn't let me sleep," Nicole said."Well, judging by that big smile, I can guess that you enjoyed whatever that something was," Bruno teased. Nicole blushed at the memory."Haha, your face has turned completely red," he loved that she still blushed.Nicole smiled, then got up and headed to the bathroom, this time not covering herse

    "Come on, Leandro, let's go. I'll take you home," she said, dragging the words."I want to see Nicole, tell her how much I love her," he said, slurring his words."You'll see her there, she'll be waiting for you," she assured him.With difficulty, she managed to lift him up. She was tall but too thin."Do you have to have so many muscles?" she asked as she carried him. Unfortunately, that day she had to go out without her bodyguards.She managed to get him into the car and drove him to his mansion. A member of the staff helped her get him out of the car.They took him to his bedroom, and she was left alone with him after she had laid him down on the huge bed."Nicole, do you still love me?" he asked, slurring his words."Damn it! Leandro, you're even more messed up than I am. I've already resigned myself to losing Bruno, but you're still on the same path," she sighed.She hurried to change him and then lay down beside him to take care of him.Later, Shelsy, who was lying with her back

    Bruno listened calmly to Leandro. He had always imagined that Sergio would eventually try something against Nicole. Rina and Gío had been secretly keeping an eye on her for a while without her knowledge."You don't have to worry about that. I'll protect them with my life. Thank you for letting me know," Bruno assured him.Leandro quickly finished the remaining liquor in his glass."I should go. I don't want my father to suspect that I'm only pretending to be on his side." Being there, talking to Bruno, was too uncomfortable for him. Bruno was the man who slept next to the woman he still loved."Take care," Bruno said, deep in thought. He had to protect Nicole and their son at all costs. In the morning, he would visit Rina and Gío to talk to them. Sergio was a clever and malicious man, as Rina had told them. They couldn't let their guard down.Despite his coldness, Sergio loved his son. After all, he was the child of the only woman he had ever loved. He cared for Deborah, but it was no

    Days passed, and Rina grew desperate. She thought that maybe something had happened to him. She called his apartment, but there was no answer. She cried inconsolably. If she couldn't find out about him, she would seek out his parents, even if it meant enduring humiliation.Maggi, seeing her so depressed, insisted on accompanying her to the café. Her boyfriend, Sergio's friend, suggested that they go there that day. Reluctantly, she agreed, hoping that the guy might have some information about Sergio.Upon arriving at the café, they immediately heard a commotion. A group of boys and girls were having fun. As Rina entered, she felt her perfect world crumbling. Among that group was Sergio, with a beautiful blonde sitting on his lap. When he saw Rina, he kissed the girl.Rina couldn't bear it. She ran out of the place, and Maggi approached Sergio. Without thinking twice, she slapped him."You're a son of a bitch," she said.She gave her boyfriend a deadly look, realizing that he had invit

    Sergio was happy to have Rina with him, still deeply in love with her. His parents couldn't force him into marriage, and he dedicated himself wholeheartedly to taking care of their son. He planned to reunite them with Rina as soon as they could bring her to them. The day he finally had her by his side, he was filled with excitement. He stayed by her, eagerly awaiting the moment she would wake up from the sedative the men who had kidnapped her had given her."My love, we can finally be together," Sergio said when he saw her waking up. He had observed her while she was unconscious, seeing her as the most beautiful woman in existence.Rina, surprised, couldn't believe what she was hearing. What kind of madman would do such a thing?"What do you intend, Sergio? Let me return to my husband and my daughter," she couldn't help but shout, feeling extremely angry."Rina, you must calm down. We will bring her with us soon," he said with a smile, confident that she still loved him."Don't you da

Bruno was slowly regaining her affection, and that dormant love was gaining strength again. After a while, Santi fell asleep.”You haven't told us where we're going.”“We're going to the Catskill Mountains region. You'll love it. Right now, in autumn, it dresses up in a kaleidoscope of vibrant colors. The changing hues of the tree leaves shift from green to orange, red, and yellow, only to later transform into a golden brown.

    When Nicole woke up, she didn't find Bruno. She looked out the window and saw him talking to some men who seemed strange to her. She went to take a shower, and after a while, she heard him come in.When he came out, she noticed that his expression was serious."Has something happened?" she asked, puzzled."No, why do you ask?" Bruno tried not to get nervous."Who were those men?" she sensed that something was wrong."Oh, those? They were locals. I was asking them some questions about fishing," he said, stating the first thing that came to his mind."By their appearance, they seemed like military personnel," Nicole thought they didn't look like locals at all, they looked different."I only know that they're from here, no idea what they do," he shrugged as he said it.Nicole found his attitude strange; he was clearly being defensive."And now, what did you eat?" she asked, serious now."Nothing, I haven't had breakfast," the question seemed odd to him, not relevant."I'm asking because

    Bruno and Nicole were enjoying their honeymoon. They had barely seen Dante and Sophie, as they had explored much of the beautiful island. It felt like being in a completely different world, wonderful and peaceful."The island of the gods, now I understand why it's called that," Bruno said, standing on the beach and gazing at the beautiful turquoise waters. He was barefoot on the soft sand, feeling like they were in paradise on Earth.Nicole was playing in the water, resembling a little girl. She was collecting some seashells, and when she had gathered several, she would return them to the sea."What are you doing?" Bruno asked, amused."I'm observing these little shells. They all have something different," she replied. Bruno looked at them, seeing them all as absolutely identical.He approached her and kissed her neck, a playful smile forming on his lips."How about we postpone our trip to Ubud until tomorrow?" he suggested, hoping she would accept his proposal."What plans do you hav

    They transferred Nicole to the delivery room. Bruno was given special clothing to accompany her. After they were sterilized, he set up two cameras to film the birth from different angles and stood beside Nicole, holding her hand.Nicole was sweating profusely. The doctor tried to administer an epidural, but she adamantly refused. Bruno took a cloth to wipe her forehead.The pain from the contractions became even stronger, and she squeezed Bruno's hand tightly."Damn it! It hurts so much.""My love, sweetheart, you're going to rip my hand off," Bruno said gently, trying not to upset her."You can rip off my hand and what's between your legs, and you still wouldn't feel what I'm feeling."Bruno turned pale at the thought of actually doing what she had said. Instinctively, he squeezed his legs together.He decided to endure her tight grip on his hand without complaining. That way, she wouldn't decide to squeeze anything else. The doctor instructed her to push with force, and she did so w

    Nicole was in her bedroom, unable to believe what was happening. She had brought with her the photo that Leandro had in his house in Milan. They had transferred his body to be buried in New York, and she still couldn't grasp the reality of what had happened.Shelsy and her mother had traveled with them. Bruno allowed it because the pain Sergio had caused him no longer hurt, and it was important for Nicole and Rina because the baby she carried in her womb was Leandro's.Nicole stood in front of the window, her gaze fixed on the photo. Bruno entered the room and approached her, pained to see her in such a state. He wiped away her tears with his hand."It's time, my love. We need to go to the church and then to the cemetery. I can't bear to see you suffer like this. I never got along with Leandro, and I apologize for that. I know he was very important to you and our child. By the way, my mother will stay with Santi. The doctor has advised that he should not be exposed to strong emotions.

    Hours later, the doctor emerged from the operating room, and everyone gathered around to hear the news. They could tell by his expression that it wasn't good."How is my son?" Rina asked desperately. Something inside her heart indicated that things were not going well. She felt a strong pressure in her chest."We managed to stabilize him. Unfortunately, the bullets did not exit his body, so we had to remove them. Internal organs have been compromised, so we'll have to wait and see how he responds in the next few hours. He's a young and strong man, so perhaps a miracle will happen. He will be transferred to a room, and in a few hours, he will wake up. Only one person at a time can visit him, only the closest ones, please. It's important not to exhaust him. He keeps mentioning a name, Nicole, repeatedly in his unconscious state."The women cried inconsolably, especially Nicole and Rina."Even near death, he thinks of me all the time. I can't handle this, really, I can't," Nicole said, i

    Leandro received the location, and the convoy of vans sped towards the outskirts of the city. However, further ahead, the tire of the van carrying Bruno began to malfunction, and Leandro, who was in the front, didn't notice.When he arrived at the location, he realized that the other two vans weren't behind him. He immediately called Bruno and instructed them to have some men from the third van get into their van. Then, he sent them the updated location. They were relatively close.Leandro was impatient; time was crucial to save her.Inside the house, Sergio had tied Nicole and the child to chairs. The child was frightened but tried his best not to cry. He didn't want Sergio to punish him as he had done so many times before.Sergio blindfolded them, turned on the camera, and started recording."Leone, I truly hope you can see this. Your wife will have to sign some documents if she wants me to release her son. Let me make it clear, she will leave this place feet-first, so these will be

    Later, the men went out in search of Sergio, leaving only Emma, Nicole, Rina, and Mara in the house, guarded by the bodyguards. In the evening, Nicole was resting in her room when her phone started ringing. It was an unknown number, and she was grateful to be alone at that moment. She already knew who it was.—"Hello," she answered.—"Well, you answer my calls quickly, my little dove. Are you already in Milan?" a chilling voice spoke on the other end.—"Yes," she replied weakly.—"Hahaha, I know. You're at my son's house. How obvious you've been," he taunted.Nicole felt shivers running down her spine. Could that man see them?—"Listen to me. Tomorrow, at four in the morning, a van will be waiting for you at the corner of the house. So, it's better for you to leave without being seen. When you arrive here, I will release your son. You will stay in your place."—"How do I know I can trust you? After all, you're not a trustworthy man," Nicole said, her voice filled with doubt.—"You hav

    Bruno said, getting up from the armchair where he had been sitting. Perhaps it was the strength of the liquor that allowed him to react. He looked out the window, and Nicole was still out on the terrace. He approached her and embraced her, and they stood there, silently holding each other.They were interrupted by Mara and René, who arrived shortly after. Nicole's parents also arrived, and they all gathered in the living room, simply looking at each other."What can we do? I feel like I'm wasting time here. I'm leaving for Italy right now. I didn't want to leave Nicole; I wanted to be by her side throughout the process. Leandro offered to search for him so that I could stay with her. Knowing that Santi was no longer in Sergio's hands gave me some peace of mind, but now my son's life is once again in the hands of that monster," Bruno said."We're deeply sorry for what happened to Deborah," Noah said. Despite having abandoned Bruno, she was still his mother.Bruno responded with a nod.

    Sara observed the couple with satisfaction as they continued to show their love for each other."It's only a couple of months until we have our baby in our arms. I know Santi will be with us soon, and our happiness will be complete," Bruno exclaimed, taking Nicole's hand and kissing it.In Italy, one of Sergio's men received a call."Sir, you have a call. It's one of the men who fled with Deborah."Sergio hurriedly approached, a satisfied smile on his face. He knew offering a large sum for Deborah would work."Speak," he answered, feeling restless."Sir.""Lazarus, it's good that you've decided to call me. Tell me, where is that damn bitch? You know I will reward you handsomely.""Transfer the amount you're offering to my family, and I will tell you where you can find her.""Send the account number to Sandro. He will make the transfer immediately. If you lie to me, your family will suffer the consequences. You know I can be very cruel when I set my mind to it.""Wait a moment." The ma

    Shelsy stood there, petrified. She wished she could tell him that she was expecting his child, but she couldn't speak. She just watched him silently walk away while she cried. Endra approached her at that moment."Did you tell him?" he asked, seeing her state. He thought she hadn't liked the news of her pregnancy."I couldn't. He doesn't want anything to do with me or my mom. I won't force him to stay by my side.""The problem here is what you'll tell your father. When he finds out, he'll go after Leandro.""I'll figure out what to tell him. Please, don't say anything."Endra couldn't understand what was going through his daughter's mind. Leandro had the right to know he would have a child. If she didn't tell him, she would.Leandro returned to Milan in the helicopter. They had circled the city several times, hoping to spot the vans that matched the description they had been given, but it was futile. That woman had the ability to vanish in an instant. He called Bruno at that moment."
