Born into one of the wealthiest families in the country, Layla Rosenzweig's true identity is taken away at the time of her birth by the mistress of her father. She is forced to live as the illegitimate daughter of the Rosenzweig Family. Everyone treats her no less than an outsider in her own house. "This is mine. That is mine. In fact, everything is mine," Layla's half-sister told her. Everything that belonged to Layla is given to her half-sister, including her boyfriend. Then, she is forced to marry her ex-boyfriend's ruthless uncle, Lucius De Salvo, the most terrifying man in the country. Lucius De Salvo is known for his ruthless ways to get his work done. His name is enough to terrify people. It is said that he is a man devoid of emotions. He will find pleasure in people's pain and misery. He loves to torment those who come under his radar. But why is he so lovely to Layla? Or is it just a pretense? "Are you ready for the wedding night, Darling?" Lucius asked. “I've desired you for a long time.” “What?” Layla was shocked. “Why would you?” “Because you are Layla Rosenzweig. The woman I like.” With that, he captured her mouth for a passionate kiss. ~~~~~ Follow me on Instagram: rayoflight_pcy
Back at the Rosenzweig mansion, Orabela froze at the sight of the police inside the house. Cold sweat beaded on her forehead, and her heart raced in panic.
"Who here is Mrs. Seraphina?" one of the officers asked as his partner scanned the room. Moments later, Darius and the rest of the family stepped out, concern etched on their faces.
"Officers!" Darius addressed them, trying to keep his voice steady. "May I ask what brings you here?"
The senior officer stepped forward, holding out a document. "Mr. Rosenzweig, we need to speak to Mrs. Seraphina. There's a complaint registered against her. Please call her here." His tone was formal but unyielding.
Darius's eyes widened as he glanced at the FIR. Meanwhile, Seraphina entered the room, visibly shaken.
"Why are you arresting her, Officer?" Miriam questioned anxiously.
"Mrs. Seraphina is facing an attempted murder charge," another officer replied.
