Ruby waited patiently for Richard to take his call, she was going to give him a piece of her mind and made sure he knows that she wasn't going to let him take what belongs to her, not anymore, he has done a lot of damage already and she wasn't going to let him do anything to her again."Hello?""Richard, it's Ruby,"She said trying to control her anger, there was no use letting him get to her."Oh, Ruby, I am guessing you saw the letter from the court already,"He asked laughing, she wanted to go over to where he was and wipe those laughter off his face, but unfortunately, she was far away in Cacko."I didn't see the letter per se, I got a call from my lawyer, I am not in the city,""Ahha, okay then, all you have to do is tell your lawyer to hand the papers over and we will be done for good,"The stupid man said and Ruby felt her control slowly slipping away, he was talking nonsense so comfortably."You must be crazy, no skip that, I know you are crazy,""What do you mean by that Ruby

Liam sat staring at the screen of his laptop, no matter how he searched there was nowhere it was written, how the fuck does the internet not have a good document of how this fucked up island came into existence, he had been in it for over two hours, yes the name was there and there were some information about it but no one knew how it came about, not even the smallest of details about the founding fathers, there has to be someone who first came to the place and also when it started, the articles he saw dated back twenty years ago, and that was the oldest, he couldn't conclude based off that the island didn't exist until twenty years ago, he just have to look further, if only he was in the city, he would have gone to a library where history books are kept, there has to be something somewhere, he gave up on looking after checking for few more minutes, he went to his room where Kristen was laid sleeping, the little had cried earlier and after he fed her she played for a while before she

Ruby hurriedly walked to the hospital, without waiting for Liam, there was no much time to do that, she should have thought of Annette trying to leave, but it never occurred to her, she couldn't be on her own, she would die and the baby might die too, they both can't survive for long, she just hoped they will find them before it is too late."Doc, you are here,""Yes, Lewis what happened here?""The nurse in charge of her step out for a while and she disappeared, with the baby, it all happened so fast, and we have been trying to find her,"He revealed."How is that possible? How did she get by the reception without getting noticed?"Ruby asked, because she has to go through the section to get her baby, and someone would have noticed her because the baby ward was off-limits to no staff, except they are in to see their baby and it is always with the guide of a nurse."She requested for her baby to be brought to her, we couldn't deny her that since she had the right to see her child, I d

"God, this is messed up,"She thought closing her eyes for a second to contain her emotions because they were flying everywhere, she walked to the entrance of the hospital where she met the others, they all looked so worried she couldn't even blame them because she knew they were doing their best, yes they were trained to work under distress but this was a little overboard, this went beyond what they were trained for."I just hope they are found,"Sara said."They will,"She responded even though she could only hope.About twenty minutes later, her phone rang again, she quickly picked it up, it was Liam's number but it was Lewis that picked it up, she didn't even know he wasn't in the hospital."We found her,""Oh my God, for real? How is she?""Not so fine doc, but the baby is okay for now, we will be there shortly,""Thank God, thank you so much Lewis, and Liam too, oh God, thank you,"She said collapsing on the ground, her mind at peace, she stood up almost immediately"They found

Liam looked at the woman before him, she looked like she wanted to leave again, he didn't know how best to start the conversation they were about to have but he hoped that what they talked about can at least give insight into what was going on in this island and maybe he could finally get the link he was looking fir to declare this place unsafe."I know you have a lot to ask me but I am only going to say anything after you promise me that my son will be alright and that he won't be taken away by those evil men,"She said in a pleading voice."Don't worry, your baby is safe here at the hospital no one will come for him,""I hope so, I will die if anything happens to my son, I don't want to give him away, he is my only child, I can't let them take him away,"She said as she started crying all over again, he gave her his handkerchief."Ma'am, would you mind telling me what is going on? Why do you think someone is going to take your kid away?"He asked gently."Because they will, they hav

"What happens when the babies are taken away? I mean the male children taken at birth?""That I am not sure of, no one here knows, but we guess they are being sold to families who need children, that's our guess, we don't know for real,""Or could they be sent to the place you were before you came here, you know the camp,""No, that's not it, there are no young children there, just people sold, and we were not allowed to talk to each other unlike here so no one really knows,"She explained."So what you are saying is, you get sold, they are taken to a camp to learn the language that is spoken here and then sent here, what I don't understand is, there is a ferry, and people are leaving this island when they want,""That's what they made you guys believe, that's what they want you to believe, haven't you wondered why some of the people that leave never come back here? I mean a lot of them, they get taken away and new people are brought here, you may not have noticed but once you leave t

Ruby was becoming impatient, they have been talking for over one hour now, she didn't want to be rude and walk in on them but the more she sat here the more inpatient she becomes and the more scared she is, in the past one hour plus, she has made sure baby Kristen is fed and the little one was currently sleeping, she has gained a lot of baby weight and was looking very healthy, she also checked on Annette's son and he was doing fine too, thankfully nothing bad happened to him, now she sat in her office and there was nothing she could do than to wait for Liam to be done."Taking forever,"She muttered to herself as she got off her seat, she couldn't just sit here and wait forever, she checked on Kristen before she went to the door, she opened it and found Liam standing there."Oh, Liam, you guys are done?"She asked as she walked back in with him following her, he didn't say a word just sat down with a long face."What's going on Liam? What did she tell you?"She asked worried, the exp

Liam followed behind Ruby as she ran towards God knows where, he wanted to tell her to just call the guy in question but she had been out before he could get the words out, she stopped at the reception breathing heavily while the confused nurse stared out her as she tried to calm herself down and get the words out, he saw just how much she was struggling and walked up to her, holding her hands."Ruby, calm down, you can talk when you are calm,"He said but she removed her hand from his and turned to the nurse again, the nurse had a worried look and was eagerly waiting for what she had to say, the senior nurse Sara walked in, at that moment and looked at them all."What's going on here? Doc? Are you okay?"She asked in a worried tone."I am not, Nathan,"Ruby said breathlessly."What about Nathan? Is he coming back here?""No, have we heard from Nathan since he left?"She let out, her voice finally back."Nathan? Yes, why?"Sara said and Liam let out a breath that he didn't even know h

“Is it true what my wife was screaming about last night?”Luca asked him as soon as he got to work the next day, it was still hard for him to believe that he was getting married on Wednesday.“Yes, she decided we should be married before our baby is born, and managed to get every one of the ladies on her side so I have to be married by Wednesday which is five days, wait, make that four days away,”He said and Luca started laughing at him.“What’s so funny Luca?”He asked.“You sound like they are forcing you to get married,”He said still laughing, force? No way! He was happy, beyond happy that Ruby wanted to marry him but he was just a little bit scared that she might change her mind, she was pregnant and if she adds the wedding stress to it, she might back out and he didn’t want that.“Are you feeling like it is forced? You are frowning Liam, you want to marry her right?”Luca asked as if that was even a question.“Of course, why would you ask that, you know just how much I love tha

Liam didn’t think he heard her right, maybe he had a little too much cake to eat at Nathan’s and Emily’s wedding, he knew he shouldn’t have eaten so much but it was so sweet.“You want to marry me right?”Ruby asked again and he finally came back to his senses.“Of course, I gave you a ring, remember? I want to marry you,”He answered and she smiled brightly.“Then let’s get married, I don’t want a big wedding like that of Emily and Nat,”She said and he just stared at her“Wait, what? You want us to get married this week? Ruby? You are almost due and might give birth before the week runs out, she can barely do anything and you want to be married? Are you sure you are alright my lady?”“What are you saying? We still have two weeks, do you know how to count? Let’s get married before I give birth, I am calling you and your siblings right now,”She said picking up her phone and tapping fast on it, her phone soon rang and he knew just who was calling and it turned out to be that person wh

“Honey? Will you hurry up? We are going to be late and I want to be the one to catch Emily’s bouquet, we don’t go on time I might not get that chance,”Ruby yelled to Liam who was still getting ready, he was one of Nathan’s best men but that didn’t mean he should take all the day dressing, it’s been almost a month since after her divorce with Richard had been finalized and life had been all shades of fun since then, today they were all going to gather to witness Emily and Nathan say I do and she was so excited and really wanted to catch the bouquet even though she was already engaged.“Wait, you wanna catch a bouquet? How are you going to do it with the way you look right now?”He asked, mocking her, she looked so huge now she wondered how she was still able to move freely, she was eight months and two weeks pregnant, just two more weeks and she would meet her baby, okay, maybe three if the baby decides to delay.“I will, don’t get in my way,”She insisted.“I won’t have to baby, Kell

After speaking with Liam, and clarifying everything, everything was back okay again, the very next day, Sam filed the lawsuit and they got a hearing date, she didn’t need to show up in court, that was the best part of it, Sam said she would handle it and everything was discussed between Sam and Richard’s lawyer, she didn’t even need to meet Richard again, he called her and she told him off and blocked his number, she didn’t want his negative vibes, he had her before and lost her himself, which she was grateful for because if he had not ended things with her then she won’t have gone to Cacko and if she hadn’t gone to the island, she won’t have found Liam and Kristen and she would not have the life she had now.Only after a few days after filing for the suit, Sam called her that she had a huge chance of winning and it did happen because when he called her again, it was to tell her that the court has ordered Richard to sign the paper, she was so happy, but she hadn’t told Liam about it,

“Sam?”“Yes, he is my lawyer, I spoke to him and he suggested I go talk to Richard, I did that today but Richard is so selfish he doesn’t want to sign so I am going with Sam’s first suggestion which is to file for a lawsuit,”She informed.“Well, in that case, Sam is one of my favorite people now too,”He said and she laughed.“Oh, I missed us so much,”“Me too, I miss Kristen too,”She said in a sad voice.“We can go see her, she is enjoying her time with her grandparents, it’s just them as none of my siblings are at the mansion, mom called earlier and Kristen was having a fun time in the background,”He revealed and she cheered up.“That sounds so cool,”“Yeah, we can go over to see her if you want, mom won’t let me take her away until the one week I promised she would spend there is up, we can go be with her too, I know mom will want to see you too,”He said and she frowned in sadness again.“What is making you frown this time woman,”He asked pulling her face to his.“Talk to me,

“Why would you think I am angry at you?”Liam asked not understanding how that even happened, he couldn’t deny that he had pretty much been avoiding talking to her for the past couple of days but that had nothing to do with him being mad at her and everything to do with him giving her space, he didn't want to crowd her with everything going on.“I thought you were, you didn’t talk much to me, you haven’t hugged or kissed me for days, you haven’t told me you love me either, and I haven’t seen you for days, I thought you were not here,”She said and he felt like hell, he went up to her and kissed her.“I was here all along, saw you every time you left the room, I thought you knew I was home too and you just didn’t want to talk to me, I am not angry at you Ruby, believe me, I acted like a selfish idiot that day and felt bad about it immediately, I wanted to talk to you and say sorry but you didn’t want to talk to me,”“I shouldn’t have locked you out that night, I thought you would say s

She spent the next couple of days on her own, mostly in her room, the house was quiet most of the time except when the cleaners come to clean or when the cooks were around but as soon as they leave the whole place was so calm and quiet, the loneliness was heartbreaking, today she was finally meeting with Richard, she got up early and took her bath and ate breakfast, not like she had much appetite these days, she only ate just so her baby will be fine.Ruby drove to where Richard had agreed for them to meet up, if this doesn’t go as planned then she would just leave it to Sam to handle it, no way was she going to let Richard ride off her, she wasn’t a push over and he couldn’t hold her to a marriage that she didn’t want.“Richard,”She said in greeting as she struggled to sit down as the chair was relatively small and tight.“I never knew I would see you like this, with a big tummy, wow, maybe we needed to be apart for it to happen,”Richard said. he was shameless but she wasn’t about
