"Hello," Martin approached Evelyn's table with a smile. "Hi," she greeted with a faint smile. "I'm Jake," Martin introduced himself, extending his hand for a handshake. "Eve," she responded curtly, opting not to shake his hand. Martin retracted his outstretched hand. The waiter arrived with Evelyn's order, and she paid using cash she had received from Michael. "So, I assume you're one of those hot, single, wealthy women in their fifties, right? Well, I happen to be hot, rich, and single myself," he said playfully, winking at her. Evelyn let out a chuckle, finding his comment amusing. "What are you getting at?" She asked. "Let's hook up. Let's get together," Martin smiled at her. "I am actually married," she replied. "But definitely not happily married. You know, at some point in a marriage, the spark fades, and the couple starts seeing each other as mere housemates. The husband seeks solace in the arms of younger women, while the wife is fully aware of his affairs but rem

Daisy's relentless barking jolted 'young master' awake from his slumber, causing him to head outside to investigate. Kneeling down next to Daisy, he attempted to calm her, his voice hoarse. "What's wrong, Daisy? Do you want to come inside?" He gently stroked her fur. But before he could process the situation further, a commanding voice pierced through the night. It was Andrew, his face concealed behind a mask, and a menacing gun pointed directly at him. "Get up. Put your hands behind your head," he ordered. Fear surged through 'young master' but he tried to hide it as he reluctantly turned to face his assailant. In that split second, Andrew's foot connected brutally with his face, resulting in a crimson stream of blood trickling from his wounded lips. Enraged, he cried out from his position on the floor. "What the hell!" "I said, hands behind your head. Do it unless you want a bullet in you, and I'm not joking," Andrew emphasized, his threat palpable. Fixating his gaze on A

Slowly, he rolled the dress up her body, his palms gliding gently over her bare skin. Her gaze quivered, overwhelmed by the sensation of his caressing touch. Sitting up, she allowed him to unclasp the dress from her neck, grateful for its sleeveless and free design that made it effortless to remove. With a graceful toss, he discarded it onto the floor, leaving her completely bare before him. "Ready?" he asked, his voice filled with tenderness and she simply nodded in response. In one fluid motion, he swept her into his arms, effortlessly lifting her weight as if she were weightless. She instinctively wrapped her hands around his neck, finding comfort and security in his touch. Together, they entered the bathroom, where a warm bath awaited them in the inviting bathtub. With utmost care, he lowered her into the soothing waters, watching as she sank deeper, a blissful sigh escaping her lips. Kneeling by the tub, he watched her and his eyes were filled with adoration. A gentle smile

Two days had passed since Adrienne and Martin had last spoken to each other at the helipad ground. Although they weren't exactly avoiding each other, Martin seemed reluctant to engage in conversation. However, their daily routine still brought them face-to-face, with Martin faithfully attending to Adrienne's needs. Adrienne made an attempt to break the tension by speaking to Martin once, but he dismissed her, expressing that he didn't want to talk. This only deepened the rift between them, leaving nothing but palpable tension lingering in the air. Adrienne wanted to talk with Martin, but his constant avoidance left her with no choice but to find solace elsewhere.

Adrienne's breath hitched as Martin's words sent shivers down her spine. Her heart raced, her cheeks flushed with anticipation. She could feel the intensity of his gaze, the weight of his desire, and it took her breath away."I'm sure he did better," Adrienne playfully teased, a mischievous glint in her eyes. Martin smirked, accepting her challenge.He leaned closer and kissed her forehead, tenderly caressing her cheek with his thumb. "Just the forehead?" Adrienne said, her voice tinged with a hint of pretend dismay. Martin chuckled, his laugh like music to her ears.Martin leaned in once more, his lips lingering inches away from hers. The air between them crackled with electricity, as if the world held its breath, waiting for their souls to intertwine.Adrienne managed to find her voice, barely a whisper, as she replied to his touch, "Richard could never touch me like this."Martin's eyes sparkled with a mixture of triumph and adoration.

Her fingers gently traced the outline of the glass, as if memorizing every detail."I am definitely going to miss this house," she murmured softly.Martin rose from his seat and approached her from behind, his arms encircling her in a tender embrace. Leaning down, he pressed a gentle kiss to her hair."And I'm gonna miss you," he admitted, his voice filled with both longing and regret.Adrienne turned to face him, her eyes filled with affection.

***Present day***The drive from the hospital to Richard's mansion was tense and silent. Richard sat behind the wheel, his hand resting lightly on Adrienne's lap, occasionally giving it a comforting rub. Adrienne sat quietly, her eyes closed, lost in her thoughts."We are here," Richard finally broke the silence, announcing their arrival as he parked the car. They both exited the vehicle and made their way inside. Adrienne headed straight to Richard's room, hoping for some peace and quiet, only to find Juliette lying provocatively on the bed."Juliette?" Adrienne called out, her voice filled with both surprise and confusion. She turned to Richard, her eyes demanding an explanation for this unexpected sight."Welcome back home," Juliette grinned devilishly, a hint of mischief in her eyes. With her head held high, she gracefully stood up from the bed and exited the room, leaving Adrienne and Richard alone, both in a state of shock."What the hell was that?" Adrienne finally managed to d

Anabelle and Linc descended the stairs together and joined the rest of the family in the living room."I needed to collect something from Linc, that's why I was in his room," Anabelle fibbed, feeling the weight of their stares."Hmm. Something like a kiss or a dick?" Renee interjected with a mischievous smile."Renee, watch your language," Evelyn cautioned, giving her daughter a disapproving look."Whatever. They were in the middle of a make-out session when I walked in to call them," Renee said, her tone defiant."Damn it!" Linc muttered under his breath, frustration gripping him."Making out? That's absolutely false! I'm married to Ryan, have some decency," Anabelle defended herself."Yeah, as if I'd have a romantic relationship with her," Linc chimed in."Enough from both of you!" Michael's stern voice demanded their attention."Don't think we're oblivious to your little affair. Keep playing games with that jerk, Annabelle," Ryan sneered."We're all aware of what's going on between

It became increasingly clear that she was nowhere to be found.Frustration slowly crept into his voice as he wondered aloud, "Where could she possibly be?" Realization struck him – if she wasn't home, then she must have gone to Daniel.Determined, Richard made his way to Daniel's house, only to discover that Daniel had moved out. Feeling slightly defeated, his thoughts turned to other possible locations. Perhaps she was at her other house or her mom's house.
