"Aren't you okay with your girlfriend? So staring at someone's boyfriend is a bad habit," he continued, hanging up his damp towel. Momentarily breaking away from his gaze, he asked, "How was it? Did you succeed in speaking with the manager?" Lucas chuckled and made his way to the freezer, answering her question on the way. "I dropped the idea; if I ask him to sack her, what will she do? You know she will refuse to take any job coming from me; I don't want to add to her pain." Pausing briefly to take a deep breath, he continued, "I will rather make sure she's not alone instead of letting her blame herself for losing her job, even though I am not pleased with her working at the club, but I still think I should stay out of that for now. We need to sort things out first." Finished with his monologue, he chugged down the remaining juice in his hand before his throat called out for more. Heading back towards the freezer, he grabbed two bottles this time, his mind already focused on the ne
"Don't come closer to me" Sophia thundered, giving Leon a scathing look. "Stop! Don't come closer," she warned, holding out a finger that trembled with fear and anger. But regardless, Leon kept moving forward, his heart racing as he drew nearer to the woman he loved. He'd do anything to make Sophia his, and he couldn't let her slip away again. "Sophia, I really do love you. Why can't you see that?" he pleaded, the tone of his voice heavy with regret. But his eyes told the full story: he was determined to do whatever it took to win her over, no matter the cost. Sophia knew this all too well - she would seen the way he looked at her, as if he was willing to do anything to take her away from Lucas. "Leon, please stay away from me. I don't want to have anything to do with you," Sophia warned, the fire of hatred blazing in her eyes. For years, she would harbored resentment toward Leon for the pain he'd caused her. She couldn't bear the thought of allowing him into her life, even if he

"I did what I had to do," Elena said firmly. "And I'll do whatever it takes to get what I want." "I can't believe this is happening," Leon sighed. "I trusted you." "And you still can," Elena said with an hint of mocking. "Just give me what I want. You can have your your woman back, and we can be happy together." "That's not how it works, Elena," Leon replied. "I won't let you ruin my life just so you can have what you want. I'll find a way to clear my name." "Good luck with that," Elena said before hanging up the phone. Leon sat there for a moment, trying to process everything that had just happened. He couldn't believe that he did that to someone he loves, he thought raping her and planting his seed inside her will make her fall in love with him, but he realized he complicate the matter more. But he knew he had to act fast if he wanted Sophia to forgive her. He began brainstorming ideas and plans to apologize to Sophia.*******Lucas pulled up to Sophia's apartment complex and
Leon's voice held a hint of sincerity as he tried to explain his actions to Lucas. "Elena, she tried to manipulate me just because of what I did with her mother. I know my actions isn't justified, but it's not an excuse, that's the truth." Lucas was filled with curiosity as he listened to Leon's words. "What do you mean by that? What did you do with her mother?" Lucas asked sharply. Leon's eyes lowered to the ground as he confessed, "I was the one who asked her mother to tell you that she's dead; she refused, but I promised to expose her secret about her killing her husband just to get their family property in her name." Lucas was already losing his mind, but he chose to calm his nerve. "Do you regret it now?" he thundered. "No, I didn't regret it," Leon replied firmly. "I wanted you to move on with your life after the doctor confirmed she could only survive if a miracle happened. You know I don't believe in miracles, so I thought she was going to die. I wanted you to move on, o
"I didn't deserve someone like you. You can arrest me if you want, and you can see me go to jail if you want. But please, I want to help you guys get back at Elena. I want to see her beg on her knees for her crimes. I want to help you both in this; after that, you can arrest me if you want, and I can even call the police for my arrest, but please let me help you in this. I can find out a way to ruin Elena." He was desperate, pleading with Sophia to see that he truly wanted to make things right. Sophia was having none of it. The anger in her voice was palpable as she thundered, "And how do you expect me to believe that's not part of your plans? I hate you, Leon, and I don't want any help from you. I can do that on my own; just leave already." Lucas, who had been watching the exchange silently, finally spoke up. His tone was filled with pity as he said, "Leon, I think you should leave. At least I gave you a chance to see her, but as you can see, she doesn't want to sense your presence.
"Elena, please don't do this," her mother begged, trying to reason with her daughter. "Don't worry, mother. I have everything under control," Elena replied coolly, her eyes still ablaze with a dangerous gleam. "Elena, this isn't you. You were never like this," her mother whispered, tears streaming down her face. "Elena died the day I lost Lucas. This is just a new version of me, a version you never got to know," Elena replied with a cold smile. Her mother's heart shattered into a million pieces as she realized that her daughter had gone too far. Elena had become a shadow of her former self, consumed by the desire to get Lucas. Her mother feared for her daughter's soul. "I have a message for them," Elena declared, her voice dripping with venom. "They think they can take everything from me, but they are wrong. I'm coming for them, and they won't know what hit them." Her mother watched helplessly as Elena spiraled further into darkness, her heart aching for her daughter. She hoped tha
The two friends sat opposite each other, the aroma of cigarettes thick in the air. Elena friend was , determined yet emotional, held her cigarette in a desperate grip as she spoke. "So how do we go about that?" she asked. "I want this to happen without getting myself involved in the media, so what do you think we can do?" Elena hummed thoughtfully, deep in concentration and taking her time to think. "I know of a guy who is very good at hacking and creating false articles that look real. He will be good for this, but the problem here is that his charges are high." Her voice dropped to a lower tone, and Elena looked disappointed at her utterances. "What did she take her for?" "You know, sometimes you get me angry. How much is he going to charge that I can't pay at this stage of my life? You should know better that money isn't a problem; all I need is a clean job. I just don't want to get my name in the media. I will handle the rest and play cards with them," she said, a tone of arr
