"Aurora," he cupped her face in his hands "Let me fix this. I promise I'll change. I'll do anything to keep you with me. I..I don't want to lose you."Hearing all of these caused adrenaline to surge through Aurora's nerves. She was happy yet sad. While she wanted to jump into his arms she couldn't. Anytime she opened her mouth to tell him about the pregnancy, nothing seemed to come through. "Aurora??" he called when he noticed how reluctant she looked."Luca," she began while stepping out of his grip. She downcasted her eyes "I'm glad things would begin to work well now and it's great too that we've cleared up the misunderstandings but,"She let out a sigh before saying, "I can't continue this relationship.""Aurora, what are you saying? Why??" he was losing his cool again and the torment began to mock him in his mind. His arms were all over her as he spoke "Do you not feel the same way for me? Are you saying you don't love me?"She hesitated and then spoke, "I'm in love with someone

"Look who's here," Sandra got up on her feet and entwined her hands with Leo's "Honey, you didn't tell me you brought someone along."Andrea's eyes fell on the woman's protruded belly, the drinks on the table and the pizza that was half eaten. On the mahogany wall was the large projector that had the image of Sandra in Leo's arms displayed on it. They were both smiling happily and Andrea had to admit that she had never seen Leo that happy ever since they got married. She felt like the other woman who'd come between Leo and his happiness. Even though she knew that someday Leo would leave her due to the fact that she cannot conceive she still felt hurt and betrayed."Andrea," Leo stepped out of Sandra's arms "W-what..what are you doing here? It's raining heavily and you're freezing." he then pulled off his jacket and attempted to place it over her but she stepped away.She couldn't even look him in the eye."Andrea please let me explain," he dumped the suit jacket on the couch "This isn

I never want to see your face here ever again"As she was about to leave, she stopped and said,"You're so lucky that nothing worse happened to my son, you wouldn't be breathing as we speak." with that she strode out with two of her bodyguards.Needless to say, inside the envelope was a sack letter and although Aurora did not expect this she quietly bottled it up.Amber came to her that instant,"I'm so sorry, Aurora.""What are you apologizing for? It's not your fault.""I'm just expressing my sadness," Amber explained "Don't be sad, take me to Ethan" Aurora asked and on the way to Ethan's ward Amber stared at her friend."Why do you keep staring at me? Did she

"What?!" he got up on his feet in rage."Listen," Leo began "It's not what you think." However, Luca had circled around his desk and given him a resounding slap. He grabbed his collar."How could you do that? What about Andrea?! Are you crazy?!""Luca.. Luca" Leo tried to explain but Luca didn't let him speak. In rage, he punched him to the ground and nearly didn't stop."It wasn't recently!" Leo yelled out and Luca stopped and got off him. Leo helped himself up on his feet and wondered what had gotten into his brother.On the other hand, Luca had seen an outlet to empty his grieving heart. Aurora pushing him away didn't sit right with him."It's been seven months now, Luca." Leo said "It was the result of our making up...months ago. I..I didn't expect that she'd get pregnant."Luca asked only one thing, "Where's Andrea?""I..I don't know. It's what I came here to ask for help for. She left and has not returned.""How could she return?" Luca turned to his brother "You hurt her badly,

Or have you forgotten about that?""I and Luca had a little discussion, you don't need to worry Mrs Genovese.""I will not listen to anything! Your father owed more than a hundred thousand dollars. You must have bewitched my son and made him forget about your debt.""Mrs Genovese-" Aurora began however Sandra cut in."Is that important now?" she questioned "I'm still deadpan on my decision. If Leo doesn't sign those divorce papers I will kill this child here and now!""What?!" Aurora was aghast. The maids helped with the boxes and she couldn't believe what she just heard. She took the papers lying on the table and then shot Leo a look."You're divorcing Andrea??""That's not true-" Leo began to explain."What's it to you?

Andrea was woken up with water splashed all over her. Panting, she stared at her surroundings. Yes, she remembered that she collapsed in the rain but she didn't remember finding her way to where she is right now.The room wasn't large and there were two fierce looking men guarding the door. More than scared, Andrea thought that they must have kidnapped the wrong person."Hello, Andrea." someone was speaking from behind her. Since she was tied to a chair she couldn't see who it was but the voice was familiar.The person eventually came and stood in front of her.He smirked, "Remember me?""A-alex." she called "What..what are you doing here?? Aren't you supposed to be in jail?!""Seriously??" Alex grinned "Not even a hi or something?? You really did not miss me?""Don't play around with me. Why am I tied up? Let me go!"He picked up his gun and Andrea paused for a moment. The day before she had begged the universe to take her life but right now, she preferred to live. "Don't raise you

Leo was shocked to see the divorce papers in her hand. He was heartbroken. He knew this was all his fault but he never expected that Andrea would take such a decision.Aurora stepped forward."Andrea, we've been worried about you," she glanced at Leo and back at Andrea "Leo's been worried sick.""Why?" she snapped and then smiled viciously "Didn't he cause all of this??"Everyone was surprised. No one had ever seen Andrea mad. She stared at them."What? Were you expecting me to remain quiet like always?" she smirked and tossed the paper at Leo "All you have to do is sign it and you'd be free to marry the mother of your child.""Andrea no!" Aurora stepped forward and held her hand "You can't do this. What's gotten into you??"Andrea jerked her hand out of her grip and then glared at her."You wouldn't understand would you? It's true that Luca doesn't treat you right but he's never made you feel like trash, has he? Even in the midst of his possessiveness he has never failed to protect y

"Luca, where are you taking me?" Aurora asked when the car pulled to a stop at a beach. She stared at him "The tension at home isn't favorable. You shouldn't have brought us here."Without a word, Luca got out of the car and opened the door at her end. He helped her out and entwined his hand with hers. They began to stroll around the beach."Why's no one here?" Aurora asked absentmindedly and then she turned to him, "You sent everyone away?"Luca wasn't going to answer so she immediately added,"Aren't you going to speak?"Luca sighed, "You're my peace, Aurora. The tension at home is tearing me out." he locked eyes with her "That is the reason I brought you here."Her cheeks turned red and she quickly looked away and avoided any more eye contact. Seeing this, he pulled her into his chest and hugged her for a few seconds.She wrapped her hands around him and relaxed in his arms. "You have never asked me for anything," Luca said as they sat on the sand and watched the sunset. "I won't

Sandra felt at home.Mrs Genovese was upstairs with her friends in the study room chit chatting and drinking while she roamed about the house, enjoying herself.She stopped by Luca and Aurora's room, turned sideways before opening it and stepping in. To her surprise, it was pretty dark and carried a very eerie feeling. She hurriedly walked out and slammed the door shut."Gosh," she shook her head and began to walk down the stairs "So scary! How does she even cope with him?!" Downstairs, she walked to the kitchen and got herself an apple. She stared at the whole house."I can't believe it," she grinned from ear to ear "I'll soon be married to Leo! I will bear the Genovese's their first child! Only then will I demand for what I want!" she giggled with excitement as she flopped on the couch and munched her apple."I just need to get rid of that brat, Aurora" she planned "She's so annoying! Lucky her, I don't know anything about her. Else I-" at that moment the door bell rang and interru
