1989 (#3) - Leanna's fears, Nikki's intentions and the birth of Nicholas

Now resigned to having lost Victor for good, Nikki decides to focus exclusively on her pregnancy, promising herself to become a present and loving mother as she was with Victoria. Leanna, meanwhile, lives happy moments with Victor, who does not suspect at all that he married the woman who, by publishing the book on his life, discredited him in front of everyone's eyes. Victor confesses to the woman that he has fallen madly in love with her, the only one capable of making him forget Nikki. But despite Victor's affection, Leanna cannot help but be worried about losing the man if she discovered the truth; she decides to think about something else, and especially about the biography Victor requested, which is about to be completed. Months go by, and Nikki's pregnancy goes on smoothly; the woman, in order not to arouse suspicion in Victor and make the most gossipy people curious, has decided to leave the city and give birth in peace far from prying eyes. Just a few days before the labor, the life-changing news arrives for Nikki; in fact, she learns that the hasty marriage between Leanna and Victor, having been celebrated in the six months following her divorce, according to the laws of the State is not valid. Nikki, very happy, decides to keep the news to herself to use it at the appropriate time. After a few days, moreover, Nikki herself gives birth to her second son, whom she gives the name of Nicholas to Victor, promising herself and the unborn child that she will re-conquer and marry his father again.
