Chapter 303

• Lily kept her tone steady, hoping to reason with Pedro. "I don't know what feud you have with Ethan, nor do I fully understand the history between you two," she began, "but kidnapping me isn't the solution to any of this."
• Pedro's lips curled into a bitter smile. "You think this is just a misunderstanding?" he asked, his voice heavy with pain. "Because of him, my father was killed. I lost my entire family. Do you think that's a simple misunderstanding?"
• Lily's breath hitched. The weight of his accusation hung in the air, shocking her into silence. Could Ethan really be involved in such a tragedy? The man Pedro described didn’t align with the person she knew and loved.
