The hard choice

"Leonardo, do you realize the gravity of what you've done? That was way too extreme, dude." Ivy stated firmly, clearly upset by Leonardo's recent actions at the press conference. "In trying to protect one, you profoundly hurt another."Leonardo had just returned to his home study after a hectic day at the office. He had a meeting with Massimo earlier, and with his board of executives as well. They were all pleased by his bold actions, well, except Ivy, whose concern for Hayley was palpable."Do you realize the dangers she'll face now after this? You think Lillian is going to be cool with this...?" Ivy was halted."I really don't care, Ivy!" Leonardo snapped, his frustration mounting as his eyes darted toward Ivy's.Locking eyes with Leonardo, Ivy fell silent for a moment, allowing him to express himself.Leonardo persisted resolutely. "Lillian deserved it. I warned her, not once, not twice... I don't care what happens to her. She dug this for herself... It's on her, I don't care." He

The cost of his choices

On their way back to Leonardo's residence, Ivy broke the stifling silence that had settled within them ever since they departed from the Anderson's Family house. "I honestly didn't expect you to do that, Leonardo. That was incredibly bold of you. I'm impressed, not going to lie..." Ivy remarked, her attention shifting to Leonardo, whose focus remained on the road ahead."It was a tough choice," he replied flatly, a pang of hurt piercing his chest. He swallowed hard before continuing, "But I followed your advice. I believed it was the right decision."She nodded. "It really was. I'm glad you prioritized your family," Ivy said with a warm smile. "It's only a matter of time before things fall back to the way it used to be. Everything will be fine, I'm happy for you.""I didn’t do it for Hayley, you know." Leonardo started as he made a right turn on the road. "I did it for myself...""Really?" Ivy’s voice held a note of surprise as she glanced at him."Yes. I'm exhausted by the constant

Good news

"Oh my goodness, I can hardly believe this, Hayley. Rosalie is actually your biological mother?" Emily's astonished voice resonated through the phone, catching Hayley off guard. A smile spread across Hayley's face as she absorbed Emily's reaction. While she couldn't see her friend's expression, she could vividly imagine the shock washing over her. With a genuine smile, Hayley responded, shrugging like Emily could see her. "I was just as surprised as you are right now." "This is such an incredible twist! I still can't wrap my head around it..." Emily said, her tone softening. "I’m truly happy for you, Hayley. Like, genuinely thrilled and amazed. Who would have thought that that woman would turn out to be your mother? This is so awesome..." "For real, Em." Hayley sighed, running her fingers through her hair. "I was taken aback at first, but I've come to terms with it now. Rosalie is truly a wonderful woman, even before I learned she was my mother. I feel so fortunate, I can't lie."

Trust no one

"What? I’m pregnant?" Hayley exclaimed in disbelief, her thoughts a whirlwind of confusion. "How? How could this happen?" She questioned absentmindedly, wracking her brain for answers to her question until she finally recalled she had unprotected sex with Leonardo a few weeks ago before the whole situation started. Ignoring Hayley's shocked reaction, the nurse interjected, "I’ll prescribe some medication for you. You’ll be alright, Miss Catersville. Just be cautious about what you consume for the sake of your unborn child." She offered a reassuring smile. When Hayley remained silent, still engulfed in her thoughts, the nurse called out again, "Miss, are you alright?" She asked, her words drawing Hayley's attention. Hayley gently shook her head as she regained her focus, attempting to steady herself, but her mind was still heavy with anxiety and doubt. The overwhelming news of her pregnancy was disorienting, especially considering the nurse had initially mentioned something about fo

Her heart raced, prompting her to turn abruptly toward Wendy, who mirrored her shocked expression, her phone pressed to her ear. Lillian's brows furrowed her in deep confusion but Wendy could only shrug as she was still on the phone. Averting her gaze, Wendy exhaled heavily, rubbing her forehead as her frustration mounted. How was Hayley pregnant for the second time? How could this be? She had thought the first time Hayley had gotten pregnant six years ago, was by a miracle as she was the one responsible for Hayley's infertility during her marriage. The doctor Wendy had bought the infertility tonic she always gave Hayley before now had assured her that the victim could never get pregnant no matter what as the tonic was meant to damage her womb. So how was this possible? How was Hayley pregnant again? Wendy's heart twisted wi
