CHAPTER 538. extra I WILL MAKE YOU MINELoan was determined to surprise Danna with something special. He had carefully planned every detail to create an unforgettable moment for the two of them. With the kids staying with their uncles for a few days, it was the perfect time to carry out his plan.With a playful smile on his face, Loan drove Danna to the airport without revealing their destination. She was excited about the surprise and let herself get carried away by the intrigue."Are you really not going to tell me where you’re taking me?" she finally asked when the private jet took off."Nope, it’s a surprise.""And how exactly do you plan for me not to figure out where we’re headed, huh?"Loan smiled, pulling her onto his lap and tucking a stray lock of her hair behind her ear."Well, I plan to keep you very busy, redhead," he replied, caressing her thighs and sensually sliding her dress up. "Very busy!"And that’s exactly what happened—she ended up exhausted in Loan’s arms, not k
CHAPTER 539. extra A Naughty Girl.The cold enveloped the rink, but the team’s practice continued relentlessly. Noemi smiled as she watched him talk to the boys before sending them off for another lap. He had been an excellent competitor, but he was an even better coach.Noemi approached the rink's railing with a steaming thermos in her hands, and Levi’s face lit up with joy when he saw her."Hey, sweetheart! I thought you weren’t working today," he said, wrapping her in a hug and giving her a kiss. "That’s why I snuck out to let you sleep.""I’m not working, that’s why I came to bring you some hot chocolate to warm you up... whatever you let me warm up," she said with a playful smile.Levi gratefully accepted the hot chocolate and took a sip. The warm taste spread through his body, giving him a comforting sensation."Thanks, love. We only have a couple more laps of practice, and then we’ll spend the day together. Sound good?" Levi said, giving her a mischievous wink.Fifteen minutes
CHAPTER 540. EXTRA. A Cage for the QueenChiara was sound asleep when the shrill sound of the phone shattered the silence of the night. Anyone else in her place would have hesitated, getting up with half-closed eyes and a drowsy voice to answer, but not her! Her daughters were with their uncles, and John was out on a mission with his team; no one calls at three in the morning with good news."Hello?" she said, quickly sitting up in bed."Chiara, it's Billy...""What happened to John?" she demanded urgently."Things got a little out of hand on the mission. I need you to go to the hospital in Zurich where Martínez works. It's urgent," Billy said in a serious tone."I asked you what the hell happened to John, Billy! Answer me!"Chiara's heart instantly began to race at the sound of Billy's anxious tone."John got hurt a couple of hours ago. He refused treatment until he got here. You need to come immediately," Billy responded.Chiara felt a lump in her throat, and her mind started to wan
CHAPTER 541. THE LAST CHRISTMAS BABY**EIGHT YEARS LATER.**The table was filled with food, but to be honest, it was hard to focus on dinner with all the kids playing and running around. The Keller siblings had gathered once again in Lucerne to celebrate Christmas with their parents. The house was decorated with twinkling lights, and a pleasant aroma of spices and pine filled the air. It was a special moment for the family, and although they saw each other often, each of the siblings eagerly anticipated the reunion during the holiday season.“We’ve really grown in number, haven’t we?” exclaimed Loan.“Remember when there were just seven of us?” Luana asked nostalgically, recalling her little kids.“And now we’re more than twenty-seven!” laughed Nikola. Time had put him back in his wheelchair, but he was happier than ever surrounded by so many grandchildren.“We’re glad to have made you happy, Dad,” said Noémi, hugging her father.“Hey, hey! I was the first one to make him happy!” Zack
CHAPTER 542. FIGHT FOR YOU. PREFACE**SYNOPSIS** For Adriana Keller, the world was her personal challenge; there was nothing she feared, and nothing she wasn’t willing to fight for, including the presidency of her father’s company. She’s ready for innovation and chaos, and fate is prepared to present her with her biggest challenge yet: Kyle Orlenko, “The King” Orlenko, the undisputed ruler of the underground fight cages. Impressed by his skills, Adriana makes it her personal mission to recruit him for a legitimate sports representation. But no one warned her that the King is, without a doubt, a tough nut to crack. Ghosts from the past. Secrets. Lies. Revenge. Intrigues that could either bind them together or tear them apart forever, unless they’re willing to fight beyond the cages… to fight for each other.**PREFACE**The music was so loud Adriana felt it thundering in her ears. She hated places like this, but it seemed that after a year of dating, her boyfriend was suddenly more
CHAPTER 543. FIGHT FOR YOU. An Angry ManKyle only felt a slight bump, but he knew it was minor only for him, so his hands instinctively reached out to steady the girl. He swore he’d felt her catch her breath, not even realizing how close they were. But, although he expected the irritated reaction typical of women who frequented places like this, the girl in front of him merely gave him a silent nod of thanks, which made him momentarily lost in her dark, deep eyes. A throat clearing beside him jolted him back to reality, and he quickly let go, hurrying after the girl who had brought him here. “You’re mad. You never think clearly when you’re mad,” grumbled Julie, pushing Kyle into one of the nearby booths. “Yeah, I am mad! And it sure doesn’t help to be dragged to a place like this!” he retorted. “This place is full of people waaay out of your league, trust me, and I don’t like you surrounding yourself with this kind of crowd!” Kyle looked around, crossing his arms as his little
CHAPTER 544. FIGHT FOR YOU. A Pair of StrangersHalf of it was nerves, and the other half anticipation, but honestly, there was also a bit of shock and disbelief. Because while it was all happening — the shouting and the blows — Adriana's mind could only focus on one thing: how could the man with the blue eyes hold her up against the wall with one arm while smashing Oscar's head against it with the other, as if neither of them weighed anything?The only thing that broke Kyle's concentration — but didn’t move him — was seeing that guy’s friend approach, ready to attack him. Then, there was just the dull sound of a chair, a body falling face-first, and a man’s cry of pain.Over Kyle's shoulder, Adriana glimpsed a young girl, almost like a child, pressing a pointed heel into the back of her boyfriend’s friend."Move, and I swear you’ll never walk again," Julie hissed. "Taking down sleazy lowlifes like you is my passion."And then it happened. Just like that. No one in that room could mov
CHAPTER 545. FIGHT FOR YOU. A Woman Ready to Unleash ChaosWas she furious? Extremely!But maybe anger wasn’t the right feeling at that moment. Those blue eyes had only looked at her for a second before he turned and walked away, and Adriana leaned over Oscar, grabbing him by the lapels of his bloody suit and slapping him to wake him up.“Get near my company again, and I’ll charge you with conspiracy to murder and anything else I can think of. Do you hear me, you miserable [expletive]? Stay away from my family and me — that’s the only friendly warning you’ll get!”She dropped him as if he were trash, or something filthy, and ran down the stairs, scanning the crowd, but all she saw were the tails of two identical McLarens leaving the parking lot. Something told her they could only belong to those two siblings.She took a deep breath, letting the night air fill her lungs, and had the good sense not to go home to her apartment that night. She sent a security alert for the company to lock
