" I'm saying nothing but the Truth Fredo ", he replied him
" What's the truth in all this that you said now ? I just want to get where you're heading to ",he screamed
His foot stepped out from his seat as he stood beside Gibert

THE ZOREN'S FAMILY Vilfredo's phone buzzed continuously, he almost looked off it but when he saw that it's the doctor, he picked up the receive."Good morning Sir…" he greeted Fredo who was putting on his clothes.Liana had already left to the court, and he has less than an hour to appear there too."Good morning too, how are you doing?" He asked and pulled his trousers to his waist.The doctor stretched his lips. "I'm fine Sir. About the test, I got the result now from the scientist." He explained.He sighed taking a deep breath. " Ok then, what's the news? If it isn't something good, please don't tell me.""Sir, the baby is yours. She was already pregnant before she got abducted. It's right week pregnancy." He explained further.His eyes widened. "God of heaven! Eight weeks huh? It's been long I fertilized the egg." Fredo stated.The doctor began laughing. "Sure sir, it's been long you fertilized the egg. So later on, she can come over for consultation okay." Fredo nodded. "That's
THE UNEXPECTEDFredo sat beside Liana in the hospital staring at her. He wasn't happy seeing her in such condition."This is the second time she's losing consciousness and I really want to know what's going on." Fredo referred to the nurse who was with him.She glanced at him and smiled. "You need to wait for the doctors report first.""But what's funny with the complain I made? You're getting me furious you know." He scolded the nurse.She shook her head. "I'm sorry Sir." She left the ward immediately not to enrage him the more.Fredo kept caressing her cheek until she let her eyes open. A smile affixed on his face."Liana… how do you feel now?" He gripped her palm so tight. She yawned."I'll help you get up." He held her hand so tight when he noticed that she's trying to get up.Liana got seated on the bed leaning on the wall. Her eyes affixed at a place but she wasn't saying a word."Are you okay?" He broke up the silence. He wasn't comfortable seeing her that way.She glanced at h
THE CONFLICT. THE ESCAPE.After Fredo left home with his father, he began getting things ready. He hasn't risked his life in such thing before… but he's gonna do it now for the sake of his family.He will never let Douglas take advantage of his happiness. They need to sort it out as men.Later in the morning, as early as 5 am…the bounty hunter had already arrived with the police men. They stood outside waiting for him.He was so quick to freshen up and get dressed immediately."Son, you need to be careful. Remember that the young man is a hoodlum and can do anything to take away your life." Pa Antonio advised him.He nodded and smiled. "I promise to be fine Dad, you don't need to be do worried." He assured him.Gibert had already dressed up, that brother who doesn't leave his path when in trouble. He is always there to suffer pains with him. They two brothers twitched out of the room to the compound where the police and bounty hunter stood."Hope we're good to go now…" he referred to
CONTACTING HIM.Douglas kept staring at Liana, he can't resist having a taste of her. He isn't a stick, and so he must take action as a man.He moved towards her again, his eyes wasn't fury either. It had changed to revealing affections.But Liana never gave him a dime attention. She had turned deaf ears to all his pleadings to let him touch her.He moved towards her again, this time on his knees."Let's produce offsprings Liana. Let's build up a family together and I promise you won't regret it… you can't just be denying my touch please." He stated.Liana didn't attempt glancing at him, she affixed her stares at a place."Emeliana…" he called her again."Stop all this please. You know quite right that I'm married and my daughter is here too. What do you take me for?" She yelled at him.Douglas stood on his feet, he had turned out to be fed up already… begging a lady for something that shouldn't take time to accept."I'm not begging you anylonger Liana, you're proving stubborn." He r
HIM VERSUS HER.Rudolph has been counting on the time, he only has few minutes that's not up to an hour left… and if he fails to follow you the deal, something hurting must take place.He's so sure that Douglas is something else towards Candi, he isn't gonna take it lightly with him if he fails.Despite the fact that Candi has her own illegal way, he believes Douglas is thousand times dangerous than her.He wonders the kind of human he is, a man who monitors all movement from his home.He heaved a big sigh while standing beside Maricar, deep pity appeared on his face while staring at her. He kept wondering what Douglas wants from them that they are his priority."I'll rescue you just like I did to your mother, and you'll leave back home. I believe my daughter is on her way now… and waiting for her full return might take sometime." He uttered to the hearing of Maricar who only spared him a glance and bent her head again. Maricar kept contemplating on what's going on, she was damn worr
HER HEIRESS. HER DAUGHTER.Candi ended the call with a dark heart, she felt bitter and had decided on pouncing on the two souls tied up.She got on her feet and moved to Liana who has been asleep attributed to weeping.Her palm dipped into her pocket and she brought out a turgid bold rope though it wasn't too long. The next she did was to start whipping her.Liana kept screaming in pains but she didn't stop whipping. "I'll kill you before Douglas notices." She yelled while slapping her cheek continuously.She paused breathing heavily, her heart beat was so faster."Candi, you're a monster. I bet you will never get out of my trap once I'm out here." Liana screamed to her hearing.She slapped her cheek again. "And who told you that you will get out of my captivity? In case you don't know, I'll make sure you die here." She slapped her again that she spit out blood."At least I'll die a heroine, not you who laid a bad foundation for your daughter… I bet they girl must surely regret havin
ON ONE CONDITION.Henry sat with Maricar in the sitting room, they have been that way for some minutes.Later on, Benard joined them too."Benard, why was that woman here in the evening? You never told me as you promised." Maricar referred to him.She hasn't been in a good mood since day break, the disappearance of Liana and the document she had signed some days ago kept eating her up."She's like a mother to ma'am Liana, or would I say, she's ma'am Liana's mother. Anyways, she was here because of her disappearance too… and she had assured us of everything to be safe since she has a copy of the filed motion with her. But first, ma'am Liana must be back." He explained.Henry breathed heavily, he had never wished to hear such news from them."Who exactly abducted her? Anyone as a suspect?" Henry referred to him.He shook his head. "I don't think, I'm not sure of that. But ma'am Katherine is a counsel too, and she's working on it."" I don't just like all this going on now." Maricar utte
I'M FED UP.It took three days for Liana to come back to her real self. According to the doctor, she had passed through hell in an environment she isn't familiar with.Fredo took her home, but one thing is that everything going on in the family is still hidden to her.She isn't aware of Viana's pregnancy, neither is she aware of the found Heiress.Definitely, the only thing going on in her mind is to file Candida's motion. She had swore to bring them into the court of law with Douglas even if she finds her lost child.They must all pay for the pains she passed through.Fredo had tried so much to calm her nerves, but she wasn't giving him a listening ear."If only you were in my shoes, you would know how I feel." She had uttered to the hearing of her husband.They sat on the sofa in the sitting room, which she was busy making some adjustments with ma'am Katherine… who had always been her mentor.One of the housekeepers announced to them of a group of men wanting to see Fredo."Let the
THE GREAT AND BAD NEWS.The doctor moved into the office with a pen in his palm, he has been keeping Viana waiting all this while."Welcome ma'am Viana…" he greeted and got seated.She responded the greeting with a smile. "Thank you so much doctor, I got a test from you to come over for a test."He circled his lips while going through some information about a patient."Oh yes! I did. Your husband reported to me on the sudden change in you've been noticing in your body for some days now, so I decided to speak with you either." He narrated.Viana nodded while her eyes affixed on the ground. The doctor wasn't lieing though, she hasn't been getting herself for a week now."I always feel dizzy and sleepy everytime, but it hurts my husband to see me rejecting my favourite meals this days and I can't force myself to take them." She explained.The doctor smiled staring at her.She took a glance on herself wondering what's funny about her narration."What's wrong doctor? Are you okay?" She tap
