Liliana's heart raced as she boarded the plane, her palms sweaty with nervousness. It was her first time flying, and the thought of being thousands of feet above the ground filled her with fear. Sensing her trembling, Vance gently took her hand, offering her comfort and reassurance. Liliana looked at him, mustering a smile, but she noticed that he seemed preoccupied, his gaze fixed ahead as if something weighed on his mind.
Curiosity got the better of her, and she asked Vance if everything was okay. He hesitated for a moment before revealing the truth - the island they were heading to, Isola del Fuoco, was owned by his enemy, Emanuel Fuoco. Her eyes widen in surprise, Vance told her that they would have to part ways upon landing. He had important business to attend to, but Liliana would be accompanied by his best friend and bodyguard, Rodrigo. He would be there to protect her and fulfill her every need.
As the plane touched down, Liliana bid Vance to stay safe, and he gave her his word. True to his promise, Vance assigned four bodyguards, including Rodrigo, to keep a close watch on her. With a bittersweet kiss, they went their separate ways.
Liliana wasted no time and headed to the local stores in town, determined to find the perfect outfit to please her man. She tried on every single outfit, meticulously selecting the one that would make her feel confident and beautiful. Rodrigo informed her that they would be attending a club owned by the Mafia boss that evening. Surprised, Liliana asked, "Emanuel?" Rodrigo confirmed her suspicion, and they decided to go to the hotel to allow Liliana time to get ready.
However, on their way, Liliana spotted Vance with a woman she had never seen before. Her world shattered as she watched them embrace and share a passionate kiss. The realization that Vance had been playing her hit her like a tidal wave. Determined to seek revenge, Liliana resolved to look her best for the night at the club. She would show Vance what he had lost, unleashing her inner strength and beauty to make him regret his actions.
Liliana felt a deep sense of betrayal as she witnessed Vance in the arms of another woman. The pain cut deep, but she refused to let it break her. She had already endured so much, having witnessed her father's tragic death. She had shed enough tears, and now it was time for her to rise above the pain.
Determined to make a statement, Liliana reached into one of her shopping bags and pulled out a stunning silver sparkling dress. The dress was short, with a daring backless design and delicate straps. She had chosen not to wear a bra, embracing her confidence and femininity. Her long hair was styled into a sleek ponytail, accentuating her features, and her lace high heels added a touch of allure. Liliana knew that her appearance would catch the attention of any man in the room.
Just as she finished getting ready, Vance called to let her know that he was waiting outside. Liliana responded with a simple "okay" and put the final touches on her look. As she descended the stairs of the hotel, Vance stood at the bottom, his eyes fixed on her with a look of surprise. A smile crossed his face, but Liliana could see the hint of jealousy in his eyes. It was clear that he didn't want any other man to lay a hand on her, and he would go to great lengths to protect her.
Vance couldn't help but comment on her attire, asking, "What are you wearing?" Liliana, with a mixture of sarcasm and confidence, replied, "A dress, my love. Don't you like it?" She knew the effect she had on him, and she wasn't going to let his actions dictate her worth. Vance pulled her towards him, asserting his possessiveness, saying, "You are mine, Liliana. Remember that." Unfazed, she retorted, "Oh really? We'll see." With a peck on his lips, she got into the car, ready to face whatever the night at the club had in store for her. Liliana was determined to show Vance that she was not to be underestimated, and she was ready to take control of her own destiny.
