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
"Madam, you shouldn't see Roderick when Boss isn't around," Aiden advised her.
"I didn't want the people to make a gossip out of it," Layla said. She stopped before her car and told Aiden she would be driving to Lucius alone. "I'll be happy if you provide me the report on the project I've taken by this evening," she stated.
"Sure, I will. However, I will accompany you to the Boss's workplace," Aiden offered.
"Don't be worried. It's not far and it's day time," Layla said. She remembered Lucius's mother's words, who wanted to see her without Lucius's knowledge. Though Layla had planned to speak about it to Lucius later, but for now, she had to go alone.
"Sure," Aiden nodded and took a step back after opening the driver's seat for Layla. She thanked him and drove off.
Aiden tapped on the bluetooth. "Stay close to Madam," he said and walked inside.
