But, is it right that a father was a son first? With a mother who loved him more than anyone in this world? A woman who taught him how to be a man with dignity, compassion, and love?

With breathes so deep and heavy, that it could almost be heard outside the house, Gonzalo sat on the floor. His hands were shaking, and his body was covered in sweat. It's like he just woke up from an endless nightmare. Because, the moment that he saw his wife, and child, his reaction turned to utter shock.

But, nothing is enough because whenever he had an idea where Patricia has been, she's already gone. Which frustrates Darryl even more because he blames himself.

He's been following old trails, and ending up with a dead end. He couldn't understand how she was able to do it. For all Darryl knew, Patricia was just a normal girl who wouldn't be able to plot even the simplest revenge, let alone multiple grand escapes."You've been searching for her for days. I can't believe we haven't found her until now." Tasha commented after hearing Darryl's experience in Virginia."I don't have the same resources as Gonzalo. I can't go through red tapes, and I

A Broken Butterfly Chapter 132
Early in the morning, one of Gonzalo's servants knock on their bedroom door. There was a delivery dropped off at the gate addressed to Gonzalo's name. It was a sealed long wooden box, only larger than a coffin by one or two inches. Nobody touched it yet, because they were all waiting for the two bosses to come down. A putrid smell is coming out from the box, and all of them are too familiar in such smell. The moment Gonzalo and Patricia came down to the living room, they immediately gave the order to open the wooden box. And, no matter how strong their stomachs are, seeing what was the content of the box rattled them. "Oh, God! That's Benson." One of their men exclaimed. "I'm going to skin those bastard alive!" Another one yelled out of anger. "Calm down, boys. This is a good thing. He is running on blind rage, and his tripping. A rabid animal is easier to hunt because they don't have strategy anymore. They are working on rage." "Does that mea
