It had been a week since Theo's world began to turn upside down.

His nanny had been trying to get him to talk or play as usual, but he refused. He kept insisting that he wanted to see his dad, Bruno.

The nanny tried everything to distract him, from his favorite toys to his favorite TV shows, but nothing seemed to work. Theo was determined to see his father, and he wouldn't settle for anything less.

As the days went by, Theo's behavior became more and more withdrawn. He stopped eating, stopped playing, and stopped talking. The only thing he would say was "I want my dad."

The nanny was at her wit's end. She didn't know what to do to help Theo. She tried calling Bruno, but he never answered.

Just when it seemed like things couldn't get any worse, Theo fell sick. He developed a high fever and became lethargic. The nanny was frantic with worry. She called Bruno again and again, but he never answered.

The only person who showed up to visit Theo was Mrs. Rodrigo, Bruno's mother. She came eve

    “There is no way that happened,” Karen laughed and shook her head. “You know I still find it difficult to believe that the boss has that version, it seems a total contrast to his office demeanor.”“If you wouldn't believe me, then don't ask next time.” Alison said, wriggling her brows and feigning annoyance. “How did you even get me to tell you about extremely personal stuff?”“You love me too much for all this drama,” Karen pouted and Alison sighed. “I'm glad to see him happy once again. You know… he used to always be this cold dude, and when he parted ways with Raquel Castro, he became even worst.”Alison chuckled, reminiscing when they used to be together. “In highschool, when we used to date… Travis wasn't cold, infact he was literally the most easy going person there was.” She explained and they finally got out of Alison's car and walked into the mall. “I guess he just got heartbroken and disappointed too many times.”“I hope your union with him brings him joy, and you too.

    Alison stared at her reflection in the mirror, with a big smile on her lips before reapplying her mascara.“Buttercup, you're not ready yet? We are going to be behind schedule.” Travis murmured and turned the doorknob open. Walking in, his eyes lit up in amusement. “Damn…if perfection was a person.”Alison's face reddened in embarrassment. “Stop flattering me, alright?” She murmured applying more blush on her cheeks.“Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, my darling, and you are beauty personified,“ Travis grinned and walked into the room, then wrapped his arms around Alison's waist, planting a soft kiss on her neck. “We're running behind schedule already, you know.”“I know that, but I've got to look perfect, you know.” Alison replied with a bright smile. “And I'm certain you're going to be so proud.”“You look perfect already…” Travis winked and grabbed her out of the room. “Let's get going.”“Alright, wait up, let me get my bag,” Alison mumbled and took her hand away from him gent

    Bruno felt his world stop the moment Travis Rodrigo was announced as the most eligible bachelor and the richest young man in the whole of Chicago.“This is not possible! Something has to be done to put an end to this charade,” Enzo spat and turned to Bruno. “This title belongs to you Bruno… you've always earned it. So, will you just sit back and watch some dude come snatch it from you? And of every dude, Travis?”Bruno shook his head. “I can't stay here anymore,” he muttered. “Whatever the organizers had in mind before presenting him with this title… I'm leaving.”Marco sighed and patted Bruno's back softly. “Just take it easy, once you've settled in we can talk over a conference call.”“Thanks a lot,” Bruno smiled shortly. He was just about to leave when a thought crossed his mind. “Have anyone of you seen or heard from Layla? She's supposed to be here too, right?”Enzo shook his head. “I haven't gotten any glimpse of her.“Marco sighed. “Me neither, but I'm sure she should be around

She was snuggled up in Travis's arms, his warm breath tickling her ear."Good morning, beautiful," Travis whispered, his voice husky with sleep.Alison smiled, feeling her heart flutter.

    “Hey babe,” Travis said, walking slowly down the stairs, with his phone against his left ear. “You're there already?”“Yes, and I recall you made mention of me letting you know when I arrive.” Alison said and he smiled.“Trying to be a good girl, huh? I like that,” he winked as if she could see him. “Anyway, say me well to Megan, and have fun.”“I will, don't miss me too much though,” Alison whispered and Travis could already imagine her expression.“I won't miss you, trust me, I'll just be here having fun all by myself.” He replied, his lips curling up into a pout. “Take care,” Alison mumbled and he ended the call.“She is definitely going to be the end of me,” Travis grinned and settled into his favorite armchair, phone in hand.“So.. what is today going to be about?” He asked himself. “Oh my goodness, Tristan!!” He exclaimed recalling that he bumped into Tristan at the fundraiser and promised to call him.He immediately dialed Tristan's number and as he awaited a response, his min

    “So, what now?” Travis asked staring at Oscar as they walked towards the elevator which read, ‘out of bound’Only the managing board members were permitted to use it.“Boss, it was in the news last night.” Oscar replied, his voice measured. “I thought we'd talk about it first before I think about how to handle it.”“Of course, it was, and that's why I'm bothered. I hope you didn't make the payments? I mean I hope you did not buy any shares,” Travis asked.“Not yet sir, look the files are here already. I just needed you to append your signatures on them before going to pay for the shares.” He replied, pointing towards one of the files in his hand.“Why do I feel like this was all a plan, supposed to be a set up or something?” Travis asked, his gaze growing distant. “Just a few days ago, Gold&Sparkle Group was doing just fine, and today they've gone bankrupt and are about to shut down.”“In my opinion sir, I think this is exactly why they began selling out shares.

Why did you not speak earlier.” She snapped. “So any progress?” She asked, her gaze still fixed out the window.“If I had spoken earlier, it would have been for you to be a bit nice knowing it was me.” Spider replied, walking fully into the room. “Why does everywhere look so messy and scattered, I don't want to believe you lost your mind again.”“Of course, you were not showing up, and

    “Calm down, Ally Wally, get a grip of yourself” Karen whispered, her gaze drifting to the road and back to Alison whose hands were trembling against her thighs where they rested. “I know that was quite traumatizing, but come on.” “Karen, I swear you can't understand,” Alison managed to utter. “To me, this goes way beyond being trailed, Karen, the last time I got trailed I was attacked! I was trailed down to my apartment and attacked without remorse.”With her gaze fixated out through the window, Alison's mind wandered back to the attack. “You know… I could have been killed if I hadn't learned Taekwondo back then,” she whispered, pressing her face against the tinted car glass. “Clearly, the men were caught off guard, I could see it written in their faces, Karen, it was all clear! What if I was not strong enough and I got raped? Or killed?”“Alison, calm down, stop overthinking this… yes, we got trailed and almost attacked, but we escaped, right?

    Alison woke up to an empty bedroom, the television still on, and Travis's stuff scattered around the room. “Travis,” she called and sat up in the bed. “Where did he go to this early?” She yawned and got out of bed, wondering why Travis had left for work without her. Her eyes darted to the clock and she was shocked at what time was. “It's 9 am already?” She gasped and rushed to the bathroom to freshen up.She got back to the room and there was still no sign of Travis, it seemed as though he had not even bee around.She finally decided to reached for her phone to call him. Since they began living together weeks ago, he has never gone to work without her, so why all of a sudden?“Is it probably because of what transpired last night?” She asked herself ad the moment she turned her screen on, but it was flooded with a lot of notifications.70 missed calls from Megan, Carlos, Karen, Drake, and other numbers. Alison's heart skipped a beat as she scrolled through the calls, but Travis's n

    The night had descended, casting a dark and foreboding shadow over Alison's apartment. She lay in bed, her body shivering under the duvet, despite the warmth of the room. Travis, sensing her distress, reached out and gently petted her hair, trying to calm her down."Hey, it's okay, Alison. Try to relax. You need to get some rest," Travis whispered softly. “And get a grip of yourself.”“Travis, I can't,” She whispered. “It's just that everything is happening so fast? Like it has already been planned from the onset and is simply playing out.”“How do you mean?” Travis asked, adjusting beside her. “Is there something else you know, that I am not aware of?”“Not exactly. But can't you read between the lines and see what I'm trying to say?” She asked, getting slightly frustrated as her gaze grew distant. “Travis, those men that have been trailing me definitely want something and it is obvious they'd stop at nothing to get it.”“Okay?” Travis raised an eyebrow getting even more confused. “B

    “Bruno darling, have you finally decided what you intend to do about Alison?” Mrs. Francisco asked, as she watched a television show with him. “I mean, if you wanted to do anything, then you should start doing it already.”“Mum, I'm planning something already,” he muttered, although he had his gaze fixed on the television, his mind was far away. “Just try as much as you can to stay away from it.”“Bruno, what about Theo? Are you still not going to let him feel your affection? The kid needs you.” She said, her eyes holding a glint of guilt.“Mum…” Bruno groaned. “Please allow me time to think, I already told you that I am not ready to unleash the version of me that the kid brings out.”“Clearly Bruno, you are neglecting the kid. Does that not bother you?” She asked again. “Look Bruno, I'm still a mother and I have the motherly affection in me. Letting Theo stay without your affection will definitely give Alison more grounds.”“Mum, I'm not in the right frame of mind for this conversati
