Chapter4:mother's Disapproval

The sun set over the Will Estate, casting long shadows.

Alexander and Sophia's love grew stronger.

But their happiness was short-lived.

Ma Will, Alexander's mother, returned.

Her presence commanded attention.

Cold, calculating eyes.

A razor-sharp tongue.

Ma Will summoned Alexander.

"Sophia's unsuitable," she declared.

Alexander stood firm.

"I love her, Mother."

Ma Will's face twisted.

"Love? She's a maid!"

Alexander's jaw clenched.

"That doesn't matter."

Ma Will's voice dripped venom.

"You'll ruin our legacy."

Sophia appeared.

"Ma Will, I—"

Ma Will's glare cut her off.

"You're nothing but a gold-digger."

Sophia's eyes flashed.

"I love Alexander."

Ma Will sneered.

"Love? You're beneath him."

The air thickened.

Tension crackled.

Alexander stepped forward.

"Mother, stop."

Ma Will's eyes narrowed.

"You'll regret this."

The battle lines were drawn.

Ma Will vs. Alexander and Sophia.

Ma Will's disapproval hung like a sword over Alexander and Sophia's heads.

Alexander's face hardened.

"I won't change my mind, Mother."

Ma Will's expression turned icy.

"Fine. But know this: Sophia will never be part of this family."

Sophia's heart stung.

But Alexander's hand found hers.

"We'll face this together," he whispered.

Ma Will's eyes widened.

"You're making a grave mistake, Alexander."

She stormed out.

The tension lingered.

Alexander pulled Sophia close.

"We'll overcome this," he promised.

But Sophia's doubts crept in.

Was their love strong enough?

That night, Ma Will summoned Julian.

"Take care of Sophia," she ordered.

Julian's smile was sinister.

"With pleasure."

Alexander and Sophia's haven was crumbling.

Their love was under attack.

In the shadows, Marcus watched.

The perfect opportunity.

To strike.

Alexander received a mysterious message:

"Meet me at the old warehouse."

No signature.

But Alexander knew.

Marcus.

The game was on.

Alexander's instincts screamed caution.

But he couldn't ignore the message.

He arrived at the warehouse.

Marcus awaited, smirking.

"You're playing with fire," Marcus said.

Alexander's eyes narrowed.

"What do you want?"

Marcus revealed a shocking secret.

"Ma Will and I have a deal."

Alexander's world spun.

"What kind of deal?"

Marcus leaned in.

"To destroy Sophia."

Alexander's fury erupted.

"You'll never touch her."

Marcus chuckled.

"Too late."

A video played on Marcus's phone.

Sophia's darkest secret.

Exposed.

Alexander's heart shattered.

How could Marcus?

And Ma Will?

Betrayal sliced deep.

Their love was doomed.

Sophia appeared.

"Alexander, what's wrong?"

Alexander's eyes locked onto hers.

"Everything," he whispered.

The darkness closed in.

Their love was trapped.

Sophia's eyes widened.

"What's happening?" she asked.

Alexander's face twisted.

"Marcus has evidence," he said.

Sophia's world crumbled.

"What kind of evidence?"

Alexander's voice cracked.

"Your past."

Sophia's secrets spilled.

Her hidden child.

Her shameful mistake.

Marcus's sinister smile.

"Alexander will never love you now," he sneered.

Sophia's heart shattered.

Alexander's eyes filled with tears.

"Sophia, I don't care," he whispered.

But doubt lingered.

In his eyes.

In his voice.

Their love teetered.

On the brink of collapse.

Ma Will appeared.

"Alexander, come with me," she ordered.

Alexander hesitated.

Torn between love and loyalty.
