" So are you calm enough to hear me out?"

Marquis holds her hands, gently stroking them as Oryx is too stubborn to listen to his explanation. Her trust in him is long gone after he killed Ben.

" Go ahead!" She speaks coldly, resting herself on the couch like a queen.

Marquis nods, sitting next to her.

" First of all, I didn't kill Ben. Second, Ben isn't Dead!" he calmly speaks, trying to read her reaction. Oryx's eyebrows clutch, as she straightens her back.

" Don't Joke!" she mutters.

" No. I am not joking. I swear. I don't know how much you learned about Gallian's identity. But, the CCTV footage you saw on that day was half of the real footage. And I ordered my man to delete the entire footage. But it was too late for him to do!"

" Why do I have to know about Gallian for this? Is he connected with this murder?" She asks stopping Marquis.

" Yes. The person who set the fire on the shop is one of Gallian's men. Ben found his identity through Liliana's accoun

    " Don't you think all of the things click odd? I mean Gallian's identity is the biggest Mafia and drug Smuggler in our list of wanted Smugglers. But We could actually defeat him so easily!"Tyler speaks, placing a cup of coffee in front of William who is sitting at a café near their HQ. William holds the cup, listening to him. He nods, sipping the coffee... " Isn't it too weird that he was actually too overwhelmed and weak when we attacked him? The security system was weak and those people who we fought against aren't real fighters to fight with. Sometimes isn't right. Boss!"William places the cup, giving his attention to Tyler who is summing up with their mission as a simple, and easy to defeat since the mission was obviously easier than other missions compared to Gallian's bad reputation."Initially, Gallian was unaware of our impending attack. Furthermore, that location served as his most fortified and secluded sanctuary. Apart from his residence, he lacked any security measures

However, Oryx's expression tells him that they are looking for someone.Oryx time to time hisses at her mother who doesn't explain everything but she knows the place where she is heading, is actually Precious's room which she never visited before." Mom! Why are we at the hospital?" She questions again, glancing. " Your impatience makes me disappointed. Follow me silently."Oryx grunts, following her.

    Oryx closes the door of the car and sits on the passenger seat after they have shopping together with their children. The relationship between Oryx and Marquis isn't clear. However, Oryx doesn't think much about it either. She loves Marquis, despite everything. She knows and she is honest with her feelings.So, if Marquis can prove that Ben is alive and he had nothing to do with hurting Ben, she doesn't mind pushing the marriage forward. At least for the sake of her kids." Fasten your belt!" Oryx's eyes go to him as he grabs the seat belt, she holds her breath until he puts the seat belt on for her. " We will head home or your parents' home?" Marquis asks programming the location on his phone." I don't like to go there if my grandparents are there?" She grunts disappointedly.Marquis smiles, gently stroking the back of their hand. " Don't worry. Let's go there tomorrow."Oryx doesn't say anything.

    " How did you know that I am Maria's mother?" Covering the blanket on Maria and Owen, Oryx questions Marquis.Marquis checking the room temperature, glances at her, " The day you left with Graham, My mother handed me a paternity test report. "He sighs and walks towards her, " I am sorry for everything. I didn't know that-"" I know. Liliana told me everything. And it doesn't matter anymore!" She said sitting on the edge of the bed." Why? Do you still hate me?" He questions, his distance gets closer to her." It's nothing like that."" Then Why? When I thought finally you were back you would kiss me and tell me that you love me. Do you know how much I was waiting for you to say, You love me?"His deep voice echoes, leaving her frozen on the spot. " Why would I?"" Why can't you?" He steals her words, returning with questions. " The moment you opened your eyes, you were asking me about Ben. Do you not trust me?" Oryx swallows, seeing the distance between them is just getting closer a

    He buries his face on her nape, inhaling her scent as they enjoy the hot water together in the bathtub. Oryx grabs his hand, tracing the veins of his hand with her finger silently..." Thank you!" He whispers kissing on her neck. " Why?" She asks, observing the fingernails. " For everything."Oryx shakes her head and can feel his thumping heart against her back. It's louder and crazier than before. "Every time I think about our marriage, the days before our marriage, I feel like I was a scumbag. I didn't know what I was thinking. All I wanted was, to give Maria a mother. Nothing else!" " You were a scumbag, though. But I love everything rougher, you know!" She grins mischievously, interlacing their fingers together." Why didn't you hate me? This question always made me guilty. You were patient and it made me feel worse. I wanted you to hate me and leave without any more strings attached between us!" He sighs, planting another desperate but passionate kiss on her neck, creating a

Your parents are here to have dinner as well!"As Mrs. Turner said, Marquis's attention goes to his parents who are having a not-so-good conversation with the elder couple. Judging by his expressions, they are on way to their exploding. With hurry steps, he walks in, holding Owen. " Mom, Dad! Why didn't you tell me beforehand that you are coming here?"He said entirely stealing the attention of his parents.Mrs. Williamson who happens to be holding her cup, stands up, and the cup falls off her hand...

    Oryx wraps her arms around his waist as he is talking through his phone. The subtle scent of her perfume hits his nostrils, giving him the hint of her presence closer enough to feel her heartbeat. Excusing himself from the call, he turns to face her. Sometimes she can unexpectedly be close to him." Why don't you change your outfit first?" Removing the hair from her forehead, he speaks. His eyes admire his wife who is breathtakingly gorgeous." Too lazy to do it. Was the meeting important?" She asks since he has been getting lots of calls since the afternoon." Not more important than you all are. I will handle this." He holds her, by her waist, inhaling her scent. " I wonder what should do next? We have to send our kids to school." Oryx sighs, resting her head." Are you stressed about something?" Marquis notices her heavy sigh." No. I don't know how to feel about it. I couldn't raise any of my children. They grew up on their own. I feel regret!"" Why would you feel regret? Owen

Why did you bring this unfilial child?"Mrs Turner sighs, apologizing to the Williamson couple with her family dramas." Mom! Please have the dinner silently and go to sleep."" Your mother is right.

Today is visiting day and Mr Williamson like another week, didn't forget to visit his wife." Why are you here? I told you not to come here anymore!" Mrs Williamson hangs her head down, pinching her nails while avoiding his eye contact." Today is your son's wedding. They are trying to start afresh. Although they don't remember you anymore, they don't feel any emptiness thankfully." " Are you trying to mock me?" Mrs Williamson hisses, eyes are filled with tears." Yes.

He kisses her cleavage and grins. " What did Dad say? Will he move in?" " With a condition! Of course!" " What condition? Is he okay? He must be stressed!" " He wants us to get married again!" Marquis laughs slightly, "Getting married? Why? We are already married!"" He wants us to get married with full of love. This time, with a confirmed happy ending. Don't you want to?"

    Somehow crawling his heavy body, he walks into the house where he found his heaven on earth. Closing the door, his exhausted eyes scan the house. Within three seconds, the footsteps rhythmically create a beautiful forever familiar melody. Someone will bring a glass of juice from the refrigerator and speak..." You are home! I asked the Chef to prepare something less fatty today for you. Have the juice and take a quick shower. We will have dinner together!"However...It's not happening today. Nobody comes, the woman with grey hair, with lots of smiling lines or creases on her forehead, doesn't create a melody in the stairwells. Mr Williamson exhales sharply, his shoulder drops as he throws himself on the couch. Before his eyes, his heavenly beautiful family is no more. The woman who he showered with love doesn't exist anymore." Master! I prepared the bath." The butler speaks..." Carlan! You have been with Madam Williamson most of the time.

Thinking about trusting my words and taking a secret paternity test to clear your doubts? But, Love! You chose to keep ignorant. You used my family's worst history. You even used that horrific situation that my parents had to go through. You knew that Sarah was nothing but a servant. Yet you tried to destroy everything. But... Honey! Have you ever turned and seen that everything that you wanted to destroy is actually your handmade family?

Mr Williamson shuts her mouth, almost raising his hand. " You will regret it if you do another stupid thing!" Mr Williamson softens his voice, " So don't do something crazy!" he pleads."
