Madison's pov

"Madison!"

"Almost done!," I shout finishing up the last touches of my makeup. After Leo gave me the envelope proving how far along Rossi is in pregnancy, I must say I'm pretty delighted. Leo mentioned he would deal with her for lying to him and for trying to ruin our marriage. I have no idea what he's even thinking of doing to her. All I hope is he doesn't hurt her after all I don't condone violence especially on pregnant women.

"Dinner is ready," Leo announces opening the door.

"I'm done," I hastily say standing up from the chair walking towards Leo. We both make our way downstairs into the kitchen as a chef places our plates on the dining table. Red candles are lit placed in the middle of the table as the lights in the kitchen suddenly turn dim giving it such a romantic feel.

"Enjoy," the chef smiles exiting the door leaving the kitchen all to ourselves.

"Take a seat," Leo whispers in my ear startling me a bit. I do as he says sitting on the chair meeting gazes with him whom sits right next to me. Our dinner consisted of steak, Spanish rice, fried beans with mozzarella cheese melted on top, and freshly made tortillas on the side with different type of sauces neatly put in little black containers for us to choose from.

"Smells so good," I say sniffing the mouthwatering delicious smell.

"Only the best for my child and you," Leo smiles intently gazing at my little baby bump that somehow managed to grow over night. I can feel my cheeks redden from his strong gaze on me. Averting my eyes away from him. I decide to start digging into my food.

"I'm kicking Rossi out from the red eagles," Leo suddenly informs me taking a sip of his water. I gulp down my chewed up food then glance at him, "isn't the red eagles her entire life? Like her only income?"

"Not my problem. She should of thought of that before messing my honeymoon up," Leo coldly says taking a bite of his rolled up tortilla. I take a moment to think about Rossi's situation and can't help, but feel sympathy for the woman, "Leo, as much as I really dislike her. The baby growing inside of her is innocent and doesn't deserve to starve over his/her's mother's mistakes," I sigh.

"How can you sympathize for her after all the shit she's done to you?," Leo raises a brow.

"I'm only thinking about her baby," I truthfully say.

"I admire you in many ways you know that?," He profoundly says.

"So what are you going to do?," I ask hiding the smile that's desperately trying to present itself.

"I would kill her simple as that, but what do you suggest?," Leo blankly says. I roll my eyes at his remark, "just give her a check enough to keep her well until she gets a job or something," I shrug my shoulders.

"Fine," he nods taking a bite of his steak.

"Talking about jobs. I was thinking about getting a job you know? A legal one," I nervously mumble. Leo's whole expression darkens as he looks at me as if I just said the most stupidest thing in the world.

"No," he blandly says.

"I'm tired of being locked in your home. I want to do something productive and have a routine at least," I mutter.
