Chapter 23%
Leo had no choice but to plan something else after Ryan had him removed from Melbourne.!
He, who was supposed to return to the US and back to the family he had humiliated, decided to go to Portugal instead. The place where he had secretly built his own business empire.
Portugal was the place where he had once intended to take me away along with Sara, when he first proposed the idea of marrying abroad.
So that time, it would be the place where he rebuilt everything.
For an entire month, Leo tried to spy on me. But every attempt was blocked by Ryan’s connections
Before, he had been Robbins, had the power to get any information he wanted with a single command.
But that time, he was nobody.!
His father had disowned him and his inheritance was gone.
So, he had nothing, except for his obsession with me and his determination to get me back.!!
But there was one person who still believed in him and would volunteer to help.
Sara.»
He knew Sara had been furious when Leo ran away on their wedding day. That was why he took advantage of it
Besides, Sara needed to know where he had gone…
Even if it did not take long for her to figure it out, since Leo’s father had been so enraged by his son’s actions that he had tortured Leo’s own secretary for answers.
But it turned out Leo had already been banned from entering Melbourne the moment she came there.
In the end, she could only curse. “What’s so good about that bitch? She even changed her name and married someone else, but why did Leo want to pursue her more.“]
It did not take her long to discover my new identity.8
She also was not surprised when she saw me with Ryan, since she had seen the photos of us together.
But she just wanted to know Leo’s reason
So, she desperately wanted to know Leo’s whereabouts.
That was why Leo came to her first.
Sara gasped when she saw his name on her phone.X
Her heart leapt fingers trembling as she answered immediately
“Leo?! Oh my God, where have you been? I
“Sara,” Leo’s voice was low, controlled
Sam’s lips parted at the deep and commanding voice. Finally, she found the only man she ever wanted again B “Where are you?” she asked breathlessly
“Portugal,” he answered.
Her breath hitched.”
Portugal was the place they were supposed to escape to. So, Sara’s lips curled into a slow sly smile.
“Leo, are you waiting for me?” she purred.
There was silence on the other end. But Sama did not need an answer.
She knew Leo had returned to the place where he had planned their future together!!
Without knowing if it only happened in her expectation, she whispered, her heart racing. “Oh, Leo, you really are so romantic Wait for me, I will come to you”
Then Leo, he knew how to play the game.
If he wanted to use Sara, he had to make her believe she was special
So, he gave her everything.X
He pampered her, slept with her, and whispered sweet promises in her earl
And when Sara told him she was pregnant, that she had been carrying his child on their wedding day. Leo acted like he cared and was guilty.
But the truth?
Her pregnancy only made things easier.
With Sara’s connections, Leo found a way to sneak back into Melbourne !
So, one month after my engagement to Ryan, they had succeeded in coming to Melbourne
Once Leo told Sara his plan, she asked innocently, twirling a strand of her hair, “Oh, you I want Lucy to see our wedding, huh?”
Leo smirked, leaning back in his chair “Of course. I don’t like the idea of her living happily in Melbourne without knowing that.“\
But in his mind, the only person he planned to marry was me.
No matter how many times he had touched Sara, it was my name that burned in his mind.

His true plan was simple, to take me and make me his again.
But no matter how many days they tried, they failed, Every attempt to grab me was blocked
After all, I was Ryan’s fiancée that time, so security around me was tighter than ever.
Leo gritted his teeth in frustration, throwing a glass against the wall. “Damn it. It’s impossible to get close to her
Sara, lounging on the bed, smirked as she traced patterns on her stomach. “I think we should lure Lucy instead of kidnapping her suddenly”
Leo narrowed his eyes. “How?”
Sara sat up, her smirk deepening. Tll provoke her.”
Sara started showing up at my campus. She did not even care
care that
my guards blocked her path.!!
Until one day, as I was leaving class, she rushed toward me, dramatically placing a hand on her stomach “Lucy, please, tell me where Leo is. Why are you hiding him?” she pleaded, her volice trembling.
I barely glanced at her. “Sara, I don’t know where he is. And to be clear? I don’t care.“X
I turned to my guards. “Remove her.“%
But Sara gasped, her eyes filling with fake horror.X
“No.. No way. Her voice cracked as she stared at me. “Lucy… You killed him, didn’t you?”
I froze and could not help wondering what was in her mind actually.
But before I could react, she burst into loud sobs, clutching her stomach
“How could you?” she wailed. “How could you do this to my baby?”
Seeing her theatrics go too far I ordered, Take her away, don’t let her come to me again in the future.
Sara was struggling as she was dragged back by the guards. Her scream was loud enough as if giving a signal to someone.”
Then, since the guards were too focused on her, they were not aware if someone had kidnapped me
The last thing I saw before my vision blurred was Sara’s smirk.X
