Alana had never seen anything so beautiful and elegant. The service was magnificent, the atmosphere was mesmerizing and refreshing, and Alana relaxed in her chair. Their table was a private one, far from other customers. She guessed Ricardo was a regular at the restaurant because immediately they arrived, the waiter and manager came to greet him and guided them to the reserved table

“Nice to meet you,” she said politely, and the men grinned and stared at her

She guessed the five men were the most important. Alana wondered why they were all male and no female came. “So gentlemen…what do you think…all opinions are welcome,” Ricardo said after handing them some files, so they could see what Alana had come up with. The entire time, Alana's hands were coated in a cold sweat. The men fixed their eyes on the files, flipping each page as Alana got even more agitated. Secretly glancing at Ricardo. The man was busy on his phone waiting for me to finish“This is ridiculous,” one of the men said, slamming the files shut.

    Alana frowned as she watched the nurse talking to Santiago. She wasn't going to leave them alone, in fact, she brought all her work to the private lounge. It was to the east wing of the mansion. This part she didn't know. Alana guessed she had to tour the entire mansion to know all the rooms. “Finish up, I'll be right back,” the nurse said after she gave Santiago some watercolors and other drawing stuff. Alana frowned and watched as the woman left the room when she rose to her feet and followed her out“Are you watching me?” The nurse stopped and she sensed someone following her. Alana rolled her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest. Her eyes shrewd as she stared at the nurse“What if huh… do you think I'm going to let you out of my sight…think again,” Alana said cheekily earning a sarcastic scoff from the nurse“I didn't know you are, the boss's wife…it's a shame it wasn't what I was expecting,” the nurse remarked sarcastically and scanned Alana from head to toe as if she were n

    A whole weekend, Alana spent it with Santiago and left no room for the nurse to do anything bad. It was obvious she was a mean witch and to children, she was a devil. Despite the many times, Ricardo asked her to stay away from his son. Alana went against him“Sir, you didn't have to… I could have taken a taxi,” Alana said awkwardly once the car stopped at the traffic lights. Ricardo was busy scrolling through his iPad to bother with her. He only did it because Marcela was watching him“If you can't handle my generosity, then pay Dennis the same taxi fare you would have paid,” Ricardo replied sarcastically and threw her a side glance, Alana frowned and sat comfortably. She wasn't bothered about his generosity or whatever, “I'm only concerned sir…we don't want your employees thinking something is going on between us,” she clearly said and averted her eyes from him. The last time, she went to the office with him and got out of his car. Alana heard some gossip among employees. Hence, she

    Ricardo was agitated, he didn't stop shouting at his men for being so careless. They had one job, and they failed “Relax, my men are working on this,” Marcus said assuredly, hoping Ricardo could calm down. He was driving the car like a lunatic, and he didn't stop at the traffic lights he was supposed to“Did you track down who did this… I want his head,” Ricardo said angrily, he thought everything remained in Italy. He came to Paris to start a new life far away from the past. Unfortunately, that wasn't likely to happen“The text he sent was via private number… it's hard to trace it, but I'm trying, and my men are trying okay,” Marcus said as he fixed his eyes on his laptop.

Alana was irritated, Especially the way he didn't make things clear. He gave her food and she refused. She tried to escape and he caught her. The most strange thing was that he didn't even tie her up like beforeHis eyes were alert and fixed on the door as if he were waiting for someone, Alana was startled when someone kicked the door open and to her shock, it was Ricardo who stood

    Alana and Ricardo snuggled in bed together, despite the doctor telling Ricardo to go to his room. He refused and wanted to be beside his wife. Alana was happy to be in the man's arms.“But it was untraceable…” Alana said with a frown. She was still confused about how Ricardo and the doctor managed to know exactly the poison Rocco used on Santiago. “We did a few tests, and apparently, he was injected with succinylcholine. It's a paralyzing agent that can cause respiratory arrest and is quite difficult to detect,” The elderly doctor explained while Ricardo nodded. “It's acquired through a black market…it's illegal and quite difficult to get the current,” Ricardo chimed in as well, and Alana was stunned. “I had Dario and Dennis watching Rocco. He met with some men who provided him with it,” Ricardo added, and Alana now understood everything. It seemed Ricardo knew something was wrong. She held on to him, knowing she was so lucky to have him.“We had the team male neostigmine, which rev

    Ricardo slowly opened his eyes, blinking against the harsh hospital lights. The throbbing pain in his body intensified as he tried to sit up, only to be met with a firm hand pushing him back down. Startled, he turned his head to see Marcus standing by his bedside, a look of concern etched on his face.“Lie down, Ricardo. You're badly hurt,” Marcus urged, his voice filled with worry. Confusion clouded Ricardo's mind as he tried to piece together what had happened. Why was he in a hospital bed? And why was Marcus here? Then, like a bolt of lightning, a memory flashed in his mind, and he jolted upright, ignoring the protests of his body.“Alana! Where is she? Is she okay?” Ricardo's voice trembled with fear as he frantically looked around the room, his heart pounding in his chest. Before Marcus could respond, Ricardo swung his legs over the side of the bed and attempted to stand, his body protesting with every movement. Ignoring the pain, he staggered towards the door, determination in h

    “You're shameless, forcing a woman to be with you,” Alana was in disbelief. By now, Rocco was only in his boxes. Threatening to have his way with her.“I've always loved you, Alana. I've always cared about you and wanted nothing but to give you the world!” Rocco made a low yell, the fact that he fancied her since the first day he set his eyes on her hurt him.“I'm a married woman!”“And I'm a man who deeply loves you…what does he have huh…what does Ricardo have that I don't…” he questioned. This time, his voice was low and held emotions. "I have money just like him, good looks, you name it…but he's nothing but a criminal!” “You're insane Rocco, you need help,” Alana refused to give in, despite how sorry she felt for him. She wouldn't forget that he poisoned a child.“I'm insane because I love You, you're the first woman who makes me feel this way…Alana please give me a chance,” Rocco's voice softened, he was nearly begging her to love him.“I don't love you… I love my husband…”“He's

The guests gasped in unison, and their faces pale with fear.“Let her go this instant!” Ricardo growled as he took a step forward. Several guards rushed forward and surrounded him with guns pointing at him. “Let my wife go Rocco!”“Oh, shut up Ricardo…no one wants you here,” Rocco said lazily as he gripped Alana's hair even more tightly. The cold weapon connected to her skull frightened her.“You're courting death!” Ricardo snapped, taking a step forward. His fists clenched at his sides, his eyes blazing with anger. But before he could take another step, many guards rushed forward, surrounding him with guns pointed at him. “Hold it right there, Ricardo,” one of them warned. Rocco sneered, his grip on Alana's hair tightening. “Oh, shut up, Ricardo. No one wants you here.” Rocco re

    Rocco was in the master bedroom humming to a tune as he selected a tuxedo to wear. He couldn't hide his happiness. The room was filled with several boxes, and all were custom-made tuxedos specifically shipped for his wedding. The door creaked open without his realization, and it was Stacey who walked in.“Oh for goodness's sake…. Is this charade even necessary,” Stacey scoffed as she jumped over a box, careful enough not to hurt himself. Rocco heard her, but he was too overjoyed to pay her any attention. “You're really enjoying this, aren't you?” Stacey said with a smirk as she came to stand beside Rocco. He threw her a lazy glance and continued humming to a romantic tune.“Nothing will ruin my day, except a witch, like you,” Rocco retorted mockingly, Stacey rolled her eyes in annoyance and picked up a white tuxedo.“You should thank this witch for coming up with a brilliant idea to separate Alana and Ricardo,” Stacey smirked even more while Rocco's facial expression darkened.“One m

She just walked out on their marriage without any explanation. “And don't you dare say you feel nothing for me…don't,” he murmured as he leaned forward, their faces an inch from each other. Alana tore her gaze from him, her breath coming in short.“Please, babe, don't do this…” Ricardo cupped her face lovingly and tilted her back until she was facing him. Her eyes were closed shut, and when she opened them. Ricardo saw that cold gaze from the day she gave him the divorce papers.“Let me go!” She made a low yell and managed to get out of his hold. Before he could hold her, Alana pushed him away.“I don't care what you think, but it's over between us…” she slowly walked to the sitting area and leaned on it. “Leave me alone

    Alana stood by the window, her stunning red dress shimmering in the light. The strapless gown hugged her curves, showcasing her bare back and thigh through a daring slit. Her hair was sleekly pinned up, and diamond jewelry sparkled around her neck and ears. As she gazed out at the city lights, the cold breeze whispered across her skin, leaving a trail of goosebumps in its wake. Despite the chill, she exuded warmth and sophistication, a true vision of beauty at night.“Are you ready?” came a deep male voice. She didn't have to turn to know who it was.

She glanced at Rocco with a stern gaze.“Rocco, stop this… I did what you asked…give me the rest of the antidote,” Alana said, her voice laced with emotions.

    Ricardo's heart raced as he parked his car in front of the hospital. He practically sprinted through the doors, his mind filled with fear and anxiety. His only child had been lying in that hospital bed unconscious and fighting for his life. The doctor's grim prognosis had shattered Ricardo's world, leaving him feeling utterly helpless.As he rushed down the sterile white hallways, he couldn't shake the feeling that the doctor was keeping something from him. How could Santiago suddenly be awake and eating when just yesterday he was on the brink of death? Ricardo's mind raced with questions, but he pushed them aside as he finally entered Santiago's room.The sight that greeted Ricardo stopped him in his tracks.

    Ricardo sat beside his son, and he held his son's hand. He watched him connect to various tubes and machines. His heart ached, and his son was always healthy, so what exactly happened to him.“Hey,” someone said from behind, Ricardo regained his senses, realizing there was another person in the room. It wasn't Alana, but Chloe. “He's going to be fine,” Chloe muttered softly as she walked closer to him. Ricardo only nodded and kept his gaze on Santiago.“We can try a different hospital… I have a friend who is a good doctor… I can ask for her help,” Chloe added when Ricardo didn't reply. The room was in utter silence. Chloe knew Ricardo was hurt. He loved Santiago more than anything. “I'll take care of that. You can leave now… I don't want my wife seeing you,” Ricardo said coldly. She knew Alana never liked Chloe. Having her around would make things awkward “Ricardo, I know I did some pretty bad things…trust me, I've changed, and I just want our old friendship back,” Chloe remarked wi
