Liam went back to Ruby's office and thankfully she was there with his daughter, first thing he did was to carry her from her and he gave the little one a kiss, she smiled, she was growing up so faster, she was bigger than she had been when he had found her a little over a month ago, it felt like since forever since he knew her.

"You were talking to her? She refuse to give her name and she wants to pull the kids out of the hospital but I told her she can't except she wants the authorities to take them, I took a few pictures of them just to drive home my point, I don't care whatever she has done for them, I am not going to let her take them away when they are not fine at all,"

Ruby said. She looked too serious and he sensed there was more problematic.

"Ruby, is there something else? You were okay with my explanation last night, what's going on?"

He asked, she looked away and he could have sworn that he saw a teardrop, he touched her shoulder.

"Hey, what's going on?"

    Ruby walked with her heart in her mouth to the front of the hospital wondering who the men were and why they choose to come to the hospital with guns, whoever they were she was sure they were up to no good, and her heartbeat was faster than she could handle, she didn't want trouble, when she got close to the reception, she heard the sound of things being scattered, her heart jumped in fear, she looked back but Liam wasn't with her le she had expected, she did hear him leave her office so why wasn't he here? She waited a few minutes before deciding to just go by herself, maybe he would come in soon, when she got to the reception, two men were there and they were yelling at Sara who looked scared, Ruby let out a breath before speaking."Excuse me? You can speak to me, I am the one in charge here,"Ruby said staring at the taller looking guy who she felt was the boss among the two of them, she looked at them both from head to toe, they both looked raggy to her, so unkempt and with a gun.

    Liam followed behind the men who as they walked away from the hospital, he expected them to have a truck or something but they just walked, he wondered what they intended to carry Annette's body with when they had come to request for it, he had recognized them almost immediately and and opted to go and went outside to go wait for them instead of speaking to them with Ruby, if they had seen him, they would have been conscious of him now, Ruby had handled it really well and he was proud of her, the men were dummies to some extent, the never looked back while walking and talking to each other, which made it easy for him to follow them, the few people they passed where scared and walked away as soon as they saw the men, after about an hour of aimless walking, the men finally stopped at a house and entered, it was so far from the hospital, he had expected them to be living close to the hospital for them to have known about what happened to Annette, bit then again it could be that one of th

    The other guy said and they both started laughing, it wasn't funny to Liam but it was all starting to make sense to him, he just needed to know a little more which he hope to find out from Luca who hasn't called him yet, he just assume that maybe he was using the whole day to get whatever information because he knew it won't be easy getting information of those men, they were the ones in Elsa's video and it was already confirmed that they were working for the big boss, he just hope that he could get an idea of whom the big boss will be from their background check, he listened some more and they were no longer talking loudly, at some point they stopped talking altogether.Liam decided to return back to the clinic after hours of waiting and watching, the men were not moving, maybe they have done their job for the day, now that he knew where they actually live it would be much easier to track them, just as long as this is not their temporary resident, it was almost evening and he was sur

    Ruby so much want to scold herself, how could she have let that happen again when she swore to herself that she won't do it again, falling into bed easily with Liam would only make things worse for her and she should keep that in mind, she felt Liam's hands on her bare back before his lips joined, she closed her eyes willing herself not to react to him like that but no matter how she tried her body just had a mind of it own and never listens to her, she had to control it, giving herself to Liam was a big problem, she didn't want to be left wanting when they go their separate ways which would happen soon because they would leave the island soon"I should go back to the hospital, after what happened today, I shouldn't leave the hospital,"She voiced as his lips caressed and kissed her back, she couldn't deny that she wanted him again but she needed to remain sane, Liam wasn't good for her, he was a risk-taker and took too many risks, it had been horrible waiting for him to show up, her

    Liam stared at her, no way was she trying to downplay this as if it were nothing, it was unfair, she was acting this way, he wasn't asking for much, he just wanted her to stop acting like what they had was nothing, or maybe he was the fool, maybe he was the one seeing something when there really was nothing, he should come back to his senses then, for his own good."let's just let it go like you said,"He finally said after a long pause, that's just it, give her what she wants and just make sure not to fall for her shits again, he left the room still naked, found his robe and put it on, went to the kitchen to get and beer, and sat there just sipping and staring at nowhere, when he finally went back to the bed room, she already left."It is for the best, I should let it go too, it wasn't even going to lead anywhere,"He told himself as consolation but that didn't make it any better, he couldn't deny that he wanted it to be more with Ruby, he liked her a lot, and he knew it won't be so

    Ruby felt she could have handled what happened with Liam better but there was no going about it, she couldn't let her physical want be her driving force, it would only ruin her and leave her in pain, she has been there a couple of time more than she could cope with that if it happens again, she might not be able to survive."Just let it go already,"She told herself. But it kept tugging at her heart, there was really nothing to do at the hospital but she just felt if she stayed there she might do something stupid again, she rested her head on her table wishing she could just get some sleep now that she was free but sleep wasn't even knocking at her door."Ruby?"She heard Liam's voice and was about to curse at her imagination before she saw him enter her office."Liam, what are you doing here?"She asked getting up, he ignored her and dropped the little one he had with him at her usual sleeping spit, the baby wasn't sleeping, she was just playing with her fingers."We need to talk,"O

    Liam already knew Ruby wasn't going to like the idea of him leaving and that was exactly what happened but that was the only way to get quicker information, over three hours after they spoke, he sat in her office, she was laying on the bed there, he knew she wasn't sleeping but she was pretending to be so he just let her have it, his kind was crowded too, even though it was the right thing to do, it still didn't make it any easier especially with Kristen being here, he really wished he could take her with him and take her to safety but he hadn't come here with any child and it might raise alarm if he left with one, if he wasn't going to come back here, that would have been a different case, he wanted his return to be easy so Kristen has to stay here, hopefully, it won't be for long anymore."Liam?"Ruby called and he looked up, she was staring at him."Yes, doc?"She got up from the bed and sat down."I am sorry about what happened, I don't want us arguing, especially now that you are

    Ruby stood outside the hospital about thirty minutes after Liam and Elsa left, she didn't know what to feel, she tried her best last night not to say anything further and this morning Liam didn't even look her way, the only time he spoke to her was when he was about to leave, she let out a sigh, she just felt so drained by his sudden need to leave and nothing she could do could make her snap out of it and just focus on the positive side of his leaving, she hadn't seen it coming and that made it worst."He would come back don't worry,"Sara said coming to stand beside her."Good morning Sara, his was your night?""My night was nightmare filled, I don't think I can't have a good night's sleep until everything is solved,"She said and Ruby couldn't disagree, who would have a good night's sleep in a place like this? The person might either be dead or a baby or a psychopath, it has to be those three or there is the fact that the person might not know about the shits going on here like they

    “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
