After a while, Armando started to feel weird about how quiet the bathroom was. Something seemed off. He figured he should check in on her, just to be certain she was alright. When Armando opened the bathroom door, he saw Leonor fast asleep in the tub. Her head was resting on the edge, and she was out cold. He couldn't help but let out a quiet laugh as he saw her calm face. It was so different from the tough little, feisty cat she was whenever she was awake."Sleeping in the bath, huh, princess?" Armando said to himself softly, a small smile on his face.He knew he couldn't just leave her there in the water. So, he picked her up gently, trying not to wake her up. Leonor made a little sound in her sleep like she would rather not be moved, but she didn't wake up.Armando wrapped her in a big, soft towel and carried her to the bed. He put her down carefully and took a second to look at her. Asleep, she looked so young and quiet. He didn't get to see this side of her much.He realized she

Armando watched Luca leave, his mind still on Leonor and Lorenzo. But mostly on Leonor, what had that foolish girl done now? He pushed the whole blame on Leonor as he would rather not feel any atom of spitefulness towards his brother-like friend. He had to see her and ask how and why she got close to Lorenzo, of all people."Master Armando? There's still something I need to inform you about." Williams chimed in, remembering something. Not that he forgot in the first place, he had initially planned to report this later when his master wasn't thinking about Leonor. But this time he decided to just tell him so he doesn't end up confronting and doing things without thinking carefully first."What is it, Williams?" He cursed under his breath and combed his hand through his hair as though that little act could take away all his stress. "The goods at the West side are stuck at the port. Donovan Mitchell's cousin is sniffing around, thinking we're behind his dumb cousin's death. Which, by the

Leonor went around the house greeting and waving at people while smiling. Some greeted back, some snorted and others just snubbed but she didn't care. 'Nothing was going to ruin my day'.Just then, she bumped into Armando's rock-hard chest.'Except him'"What's got you smiling so early in the morning" Armando asked and Leonor's smile turned into a frown. "Must you ruin my day before it even starts?" she retorted and walked out on him nervously. Leonor could feel her heart beating due to fear, she felt as though she had stayed close to him, he would most definitely find out about what happened last night and what her brother intended to do.Leonor made sure to stay away from Armando for the rest of the morning and when she was sure he had gone to work, she continued moving around the house bored until she met with Lorenzo and Luca.As usual, they all sat together in the living room and chatted for a while, Luca did most of the talking though. Leonor brought some of the treats she had

Armando couldn't remember the last time he got so engrossed with sleep even with the effects of sleep inducers and anti depressive pills. He looked to his side, to see the most beautiful scene ever, Leonor was all cuddled up in his arms and she looked so comfortable and at ease. Armando wondered if he hadn't had anymore bad dreams because she was with him, in the end he didn't want to think about it anymore. He slowly got out of bed, not wanting to wake her up.He picked up his phone to find that it was 10am already, he wondered how he could have slept so much. He would naturally be up by 5am and then go out on a jog before working out more in his room.He was now far behind his schedule and had to skip the exercise. He bathed and dressed before leaving the room, not without giving a little warm side glance towards the woman sleeping on his bed.Armando would be going to his company today to fire more of those incapable bastards in his company. He got out of the mansion and immediatel

Meanwhile, Armando gazed at his drink on the table, he thought of what Luca said and scoffed. "Never loyal." And with that, he grabbed it and took a sip of the whiskey loving how it burned at his throat. Just then, a girl in an all-black spaghetti dress sat next to him. Armando caught sight of the girl and couldn't help but think she was oddly familiar.She smirked knowingly as she saw how drunk he was and leaned in closer. "Nice to see you again, Master Armando." She whispered in a hoarse seductive tone. He recognized that voice anywhere, it was Anna.He had sent her off to deal with their Mitchell bitch problem and seeing that she is back, it only means that she had already completed her mission. Armando turned to face his drink. A few minutes later, she leaned in again. "The Mitchell problem is all done but I've missed being in your bed, Master Armando. Please can I have my reward now?"Armando gazed at her legs with his peripheral vision and turned away. "I've been a good girl ma
