Can she really leave Domenic behind so easily? And what is she planning to do with Alice? Where is Alice? "Is Adam the solution to our broken heart? Stay tuned to find out.
Since I left the office with Adam I haven't seen Domenic anywhere, he must have left and I have to say I'm glad he did. Seeing him again only brought me painful memories and now that I put it on a scale it seems we lived more bad things together than good. It's so easy for him to hurt someone and then come and say a simple I'm sorry thinking it would fix everything, and just because he now decided that infact he does want me in his life I should drop everything and jump into his arms. He's selfish, he never once stopped to think about how he made me feel, the suffering he caused me. And he still had the nerve to question me if I was letting another man into my life. "Autumn, I haven't seen you eat anything all night. You know you have to take care of yourself." Adam's voice drew me out of my deep thoughts. "I lost my appetite, but don't worry I'm ok. I'm just waiting for the party to finish to go to sleep." I didn't know whether I was more exhausted fiscally or emotionally and all I
"You're up early, I thought you'd still be asleep." Dad said as he gave me a kiss on the top of my head before sitting down next to me. "I slept enough, besides I wanted to talk with you about something." I say as I put down my cup of tea and turn to him. "Are you gonna tell me about what happened yesterday, don't think I didn't notice what happened with Mr.Davis." He says as he pours milk into his coffee. "The story between Domenic and me is complicated, to say the least, but that's not what I wanted to talk about." I have a more important issue to take care of. "You can tell me anything. I'm here for you. Always." I thought about everything except on how to start this conversation. "Dad, you know how you said that being a part of this family comes with some benefits? Well, I'm going to have to use some of them." I say and he looks at me a bit strangely. "Would you care to elaborate?" Uhh, where would I even start? "First I dont want you to think I am using our family name for
"How are you feeling Autumn?" Adam asked me as we were driving back to my house. "Really good, Adam. All of this will be over soon and I will finally be able to relax and move on with my life." Alice will become a thing of the past and I will be able to bring some closer to Leo's family, even if they hate me for keeping this a secret for so long. "I'm glad, and I want to be there every step of the way. Of course, if you let me." He says as he takes my hand into his and looks at me tenderly. How easy my life would be if I could manage to fall in love with him. but right now I don't see that happening. I think I'm better off alone for now, well not entirely. I will always have my baby with me. That is the only love that I'm thinking about right now. "Of course I want you in my life, don't think about going anywhere. Your friendship means a lot to me." He might have smiled at that but the look in his eyes gave away that there was more he wanted but he respected my space. "And what ab
"What is going on here?" I yell at them as I get out of the car."Nothing Autumn." Adam said as he backed off from Domenic and came to my side."I told you to wake me up before we arrived." I angrily whispered to Adam."I'm sorry but you looked like you needed that nap so I thought I would let you a little longer but this man attached me as soon as he saw me."I looked at Domenic who was standing now at my porch with Miguel. I shake my head and walk up to them. "What are you doing here Domenic?" I ask a little annoyed."I just wanted to do something nice for you, I know how much you like your mother's flowers." Isn't this funny he was taking the page out of Leo's book?"Domenic I asked you to stay away from me. That included my house." But you could see it on his face he didn't care, because he had his own agenda to fulfill."I told him this was inappropriate but he didn't listen to me." Adam said as he came to stand behind me."And I told you this was between Autumn and me. So back t
"Nothing." I say, it's still not the time."You are obviously hiding something from me, are you sick or something? You turned very pale." Of course, I'm pale, my sugar probably dropped because I didn't eat properly in the morning."I just need some water and something to eat, I'll be fine." I said as I slowly got up."And you can leave, Domenic." He tightened his jaw and let the air puff out of his nose but he stayed still in the spot."I told you I wouldn't give up on us, even if you say you don't wanna see me I'll still be here." But why couldn't you be here before?"Besides I want to be with you while they take care of Alice, I'm sure if they took her accomplice she will know it soon. I'm afraid she might try something." He was right, if she used that guy to do all of her dirty work she would soon learn what happened to him and only God knows what more is she capable of."She will soon be over, Adam already sent the recordings and the files that incriminate her to the head chief of
I enter the house and I find Adam and Miguel sitting and talking in my living room looking at my childhood photo album. "What are you two up to?" I ask and they quickly turn the album towards me. "Nothing, we were just looking at how cute you were as a child." Adam said as he pointed to a picture where my mother was braiding my hair. "Those were the good old times, back when everything was so simple." Or at least that's how Mom made it seem. "Did he leave?" Adam asked. "Yes, Alice was at his house, apparently she was acting strange so he went to talk with his father?" I say as Adam puts the album down. "What do you mean she was acting strange?" Miguel asked as he stood behind Adam. "He said she left abruptly in a hurry, apparently that's not like her." The one time I saw her at his house she felt more than comfortable being there, probably thinking it would be hers one day. "Maybe she got a whiff of what was happening. She could be on the move." Miguel says, and it makes sense
"How did you manage to cover that up?" This was like an interview with murderers. I was feeling sick as I looked at the ground when Miguel tapped my shoulder and gestured for me to go outside but I shook my head at him. "Like I always do, I paid to have the tests altered and say what I wanted them to say." I had enough, I had to get out and show this to Domenic. His mother was innocent, just like me. And to think he spend all these years resenting her for nothing. As I pressed stop on my phone and saved the file I turned to Miguel to live but I knocked the vase that was behind me making a big noise. "What was that?" Alice said and I could hear her coming my way as Miguel jumped in front of me. "Go! Leave Autumn. Have Adam take you away." He said and I immediately went out of there as Alice came and saw me. I ran outside where Adam was standing by the open elevator and I rushed to get inside pulling him with me and pressing the button to go down. "Are you alright, where is Migu
"The same way you could get Gregory to fall in love with you, Mother. Dont think I don't know what happened. I realized it when you gave me the idea to drug Autumn and get her into that hotel for Domenic to find her in bed with another man." "What are you talking about Alice?" "Oh please, the same happened to Domenic's mother except she never walked out of that room alive." "What happened, mother? Did you kill her?" "I wasn't planning it, I wanted her to live and suffer as she lost everything she took from me. But the drugs were too strong for her weak heart and it failed. It was an accident. But you wanted that girl dead, that's why you had that gas leak arranged and the brakes cut." "How did you manage to cover that up?" "Like I always do, I paid to have the tests altered and say what I wanted them to say." As the recording ended Gregory seemed to be in shock, he lost hold of his walking cane and grabbed his arm as Domenic jumped to catch him. "Father!" Domenic yelled as
