Axel's PovLeah was short of words, she looked at me, as if searching for any hint of deceit. I looked closely into her eyes, "Trust me this once again, Leah," I said. I knew I had caused her so much pain. I had broken her fragile heart again and again, but this time, I wanted to make things right with her. Leah lowered her gaze, "I don't know if I can trust you, Axel. I don't know," she said hesitantly. "Please, Leah, just this once," I begged her.She sighed and stood up, walking closer to the window. "There is no way we can get past this angry mob, there is no way," Leah said, shaking her head.I stood up and said, "Leave that to me," she looked at me, confused. I smiled and brought out some costumes I had prepared. After some time, Leah was looking like a handsome young man; her short bob hair was tied up in a bun, and she had put on a fake beard. I ordered Derek to go out and wait for us in the car, while Leah was to walk out with a briefcase to appear like a businessman.I carr

Leah's Pov"Sara?" I muttered under my breath, uncertainty lacing my tone as I gazed at the scattered pictures on the floor. Axel bent down to pick up a particular photo, his expression reflecting confusion. "Who is Sara, Leah?" he asked, his eyes searching mine for answers.I continued to sort through the pictures, feeling the weight of each frame bearing its own story. "She's not a worker, but a teammate and one of the co-founders of the company," I explained, my voice tinged with emotion."Then why did she meet with Louisiana?" Axel inquired, his brow furrowing with concern.I met his gaze, uncertainty clouding my thoughts. "I didn't know," I replied, my mind racing with unanswered questions."Axel," I called out, seeking to unravel the mystery. Axel turned towards me, his eyes attentive."Can you help me get the footage of their meeting place?" I implored. Without hesitation, Axel nodded and fetched a flash drive. He deftly inserted it into a laptop, and the footage began to pla

Axel's PovBeep, beep, beepThe sound of my wristwatch beeping startled me. I glanced back at the building, muttering Leah's name in concern. Without a moment's hesitation, I unbuckled my seatbelt and dashed out of the car. The continuous beeping of the wristwatch amplified my anxiety as I ran towards the building. "Is Leah okay?" I pondered anxiously, my heart pounding in my throat.My panic intensified as I reached the entrance and noticed the out-of-order sign on the elevator. I swiftly made my way to the staircase and began climbing, each step heightening my sense of urgency. "This is why I didn't want her to go alone," I muttered to myself, recalling Jasper's warning to ensure his mother's safety during our undertaking. The weight of responsibility and guilt gnawed at my mind. "If anything should happen to Leah, I will never forgive myself," I vowed, fueled by fear and determination.By the time I reached the eleventh floor, I was sweating profusely, my breaths coming in ragged

Leah's PovAs I saw Sara being brought in, my heart sank. I never wanted things to escalate to this. I thought we were going to have a nice talk, but who knows what had gotten into Sara. She attacked me suddenly, with a knife."What, are you here to mock me?" Sara said immediately after she sat down. "You go about snatching people's husband. Louisiana will deal with you," she said, her voice filled with anger and resentment.I looked at her and felt a wave of pity. "You are so pathetic, Sara," I said softly, trying to keep my composure. Sara looked at me angrily. "Who is pathetic? Repeat that again," she demanded, her eyes shimmering with anger."Don't you know you are pathetic? Louisiana made you do this, and now you are in prison. Do you think she will help you? She won't. She just used you and dumped you," I spoke with a note of sadness.Sara looked at me with a glint flashing across her eyes. "Who told you Louisiana used me?" she said, feigning ignorance. I sighed and brought out

Lousianna PovKnock, "Yes, come in," I said as I continued to touch up my makeup. "Ms. Lou..."I looked at my assistant, giving him a dangerous side-eye. "Sorry, Mrs. Russo," he said.I looked at him and nodded. "Good. What do you want?" I asked."Actually," he said, "today is your big day, so I thought I might help you a little. I invited a whole squad of makeup artists to come and do your beautiful face," he said excitedly.I looked at the idiot, trying my best to quell my anger. "Marion," I called through gritted teeth."Yes, ma'am," he said, grinning from ear to ear.I clenched my fist tight, trying to control my anger. "Oh, ma'am, you are blushing with happiness," he said happily.I threw my makeup brush at him and screamed, "I am blushing with anger, you idiot! Have you ever seen me call in any makeup squad?" Marion placed his fingers into his mouth, "But...they are one of the best in the country," he said.I couldn't control my anger again. I stood up and slapped him at the b

Leah's PovI clenched my fists tight as I watched Lousianna walking towards me. "Who is Leah?" someone asked. Lousianna approached me and said, "Hello Leah, I never believed you would make it to my wedding, after all that happened." She hugged me, and I smirked underneath the mask. "What a liar," I thought inwardly, "those who see her will think she is loving and kind."As Lousianna let go of me, she somehow managed to remove my mask. I looked at her, short of words, tightening my fist. "You shouldn't be covering your face, you should be open to everyone," she said. "No one will discriminate you because you are a thief; everyone has their reasons for doing things, right?" She turned towards everyone in the garden, smiling. However, everyone had a disgusting look on their faces. "Isn't she the one who stole Lousianna's design?" someone asked, disgust evident in their voice."Oh my," someone exclaimed covering their necklace, "I need to insure my necklace now, what if she steal it."

Axel's PovAs I anxiously glanced at my watch, concern for Leah gnawed at me. I had opposed this plan from the start, but Leah had reassured me that everything would be fine. But now, as the minutes ticked by, my unease intensified.Marvin approached me with a glass of wine. "How are you doing?" he inquired. Offering a small nod, I replied, "Cool." As Tony and Joel joined us, Tony remarked, "The groom is here, ever handsome." We raised our glasses in a toast, but Joel noticed my unease. "You looked worried," he noted as he sipped his wine. Tony, trying to lighten the mood, humorously insinuated, "Maybe he is worried someone will disturb him and his wife on their wedding night." Tony then placed a comradely hand on my shoulder, teasingly offering to share tips on how to make my wife endlessly in love with me. Irritated, I retrieved my phone from my pocket and dialed Tony's father's number. His playful demeanor vanished, replaced by fear. "Why are you calling my dad?" he stammered.

Leah's Pov"Axel!!" I screamed, frozen in shock as I witnessed him take the bullet meant for me. Blood splattered across my face and my heart pounded in panic as Axel slowly went down, his eyes weakly closing. "Axel," I sobbed, dropping to my knees beside him."Someone call an ambulance!" a voice cried out as the chaos swirled around us. Through the commotion, Axel weakly called my name, a faint smile ghosting across his lips. "Leah," he said, his voice barely a whisper. "Please hold on, the ambulance will be here soon," I pleaded, cradling his head in my lap, desperate to offer him comfort in his final moments.Axel's hand reached for mine, the warmth of his blood staining my skin as he held on tightly. "Please don't leave me," I sobbed, my heart aching as I gazed into his piercing blue eyes. Even though I had tried to protect myself from being hurt by him, I couldn't deny the overwhelming rush of love that coursed through me as I watched him slip away."Leah," Axel called my n
