Leo's gaze lingered on Lucy, his eyes searching for any sign of weakness or insincerity.
But Lucy stood tall, her determination evident in every line of her body.
The jet lifted off the ground, soaring into the night sky. Lucy felt a rush of excitement mixed with trepidation as she took a seat across from Leo.
The attendant offered her a drink, but Lucy declined, her eyes locked on Leo's.
The silence between them was palpable, heavy with unspoken words and unresolved emotions.
While Liam just sat there and enjoyed the drama.
As the plane leveled off, Leo finally spoke, his voice still cold, but with a hint of curiosity. "What makes you think you can fix things between us, Lucy? You've made your choices, and I've made mine."
Lucy took a deep breath, her heart pounding in her chest. "I know I hurt you, Leo. I know I left when you needed me most.
But I've realized that my career wasn't worth losing you. I want to make it right, to prove to you that I'm committed to us."
Leo's expression didn't change, but Lucy saw a flicker of interest in his eyes. "Go on," he said, his voice a little annoyed.
Lucy's words spilled out in a rush, a passionate plea to understand her mistakes and give her another chance.
As she spoke, she felt a weight lifting off her shoulders, a sense of hope rising in her chest.
But Leo's response was far from certain. Would he listen, or would he shut her out forever?.
