"What does she have that I don't possess?" Arla questioned sarcastically. "As far as I know, I'm better in bed than her. Do you want to find out?" "Don't test my patience," Liam warned, his voice firm and unyielding. Unfazed, Arla continued her seductive advances, pulling off the first layer of her nightwear as she walked towards him.

"Touch me," she purred "I'm all yours." Arla, the notoriously rebellious youngest daughter of the famous billionaire Williams, was born into a complex family dynamic. With four daughters from different mothers, the Williams household was no stranger to drama and tension. After causing yet another scandal, Arla's father had had enough and decided to marry her off to Liam, a ruthless mafia leader. Unbeknownst to Arla, Liam's world was filled with numerous mistresses, each vying for his attention and favor. However, Liam's heart truly belonged to only one woman: Vivian, his childhood love.

Unwilling to be tamed, Arla's arrival in the mansion would shake the foundations of Liam's dynasty. As she navigated the tangled web of secrets, deceit, and desire, Arla refused to bow to the will of those who sought to control her. With her fierce spirit and unyielding determination, she would leave an indelible mark on the hearts and lives of those who dared cross her path.

Liam's phone illuminated, prompting him to open his eyes and peruse the message he received from his primary supplier his most significant client.

She rubbed her eyes and gazed at Liam with a puzzled expression.Liam turned to address his driver, "Inform the others, we're heading to the warehouse. They took Donna," he revealed.

As Liam's eyes fluttered open, a sudden realization struck him, causing his heart to pound fiercely in his chest.

Henry stumbled into his home, drunk and disoriented. As he made his way through the dimly lit hallway, he caught a glimpse of Mia, but in his inebriated state, he saw Arla's face instead. A smirk played on his lips as he moved closer to her, his voice slurred, "Oh, what are you doing here?"Mia, shocked and frightened by Henry's strange behavior, instinctively took a step back, her heart pounding in her chest. But Henry, still believing he was with Arla, closed the distance between them, pulling her into a tight embrace. He tenderly tucked a lock of hair behind her ear, his gaze lingering on her brown eyes, which were now filled with fear and uncertainty.Suddenly, Henry twirled her in a dance-like motion, their bodies moving in an awkward harmony as he held her hands and pulled her into a silent dance.

The night was calm and quiet, the stillness broken only by the sound of rapid footsteps approaching the estate. The guards, ever vigilant, snapped to attention, their hands reaching for their weapons as the shadows of men came into view. But these were not enemies, they were Liam's men, and they were in bad shape.Blood stained their clothes, their bodies hunched over in pain and exhaustion. Liam, who had been enjoying a quiet evening, rushed to meet them, his eyes wide with shock. "What happened?" he demanded, his voice heavy with concern."It was a trap," one of the men gasped, his breath coming in ragged bursts. "Henry's men knew we were coming. They ambushed us."The weight of the words hit Liam like a punch to the gut. He had sent his men on a mission, confident in their abilities and their loyalty. But now, as he looked at the wounded and weary survivors, he realized that he had sent them into a death trap."They were waiting for us," another man said, his voice thick with grief
Mia's fingers trembled as she dialed Arla's number, her heart racing in her chest. The phone rang, each tone echoing in the quiet of her room, but there was no answer. Mia felt a surge of desperation as the call went to voicemail. She took a deep breath, trying to calm her nerves before leaving a message."Arla," Mia began, her voice cracking with emotion, "please pick up. I really need you." She paused, fighting back tears as she tried to find the words to express the turmoil she was experiencing. "I'm sorry for calling so late, but I didn't know who else to turn to."As she spoke, Mia paced the room, her bare feet sinking into the plush carpet. The shadows cast by the flickering candlelight danced across her features, illuminating the worry and fear etched on her face."I know you've got your own life and your own problems to deal with, but I'm really struggling right now," Mia continued, her voice wavering. "I need someone to talk to, someone who understands what I'm going through.
Henry's fists rained down on the trembling man, each blow more merciless than the last. His knuckles, bruised and bloodied, continued their assault as rage fueled his every action.

He wiped the sweat from his brow, leaving a smudged streak of blood across his forehead. The man lay on the concrete floor, whimpering and broken.Turning away from the battered figure, Henry addressed his fellow gang members. Their faces, illuminated by the flickering fluorescent lights above, were stony and resolute. "So, our little rat got into the estate," Henry spat, venom dripping from his words.

A loud slap resonated through the room as Williams struck his daughter Arla across her face. He glared at her with fury in his eyes and said, "I've put up with your disrespectful behavior for too long. I took pity on you because your mother passed away when you were young, but it seems that I've spoiled you and given you too much freedom. How dare you ruin your sister's wedding? You've caused a rift between their company and mine!" Arla stood her ground and replied, "You can watch your daughter marry a horrible man because of your own greed, but you know what? I just hate terrible people; they get on my nerves, so I decided to teach him a lesson." Mia's mother Bella, infuriated by Arla's words, glared at her and exclaimed, "Look, she's not even sorry!
