Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher Cruz's Return
ABOUT A WEEK LATER…No one knew the way about of Jessica and nothing was heard from Cruz for days but the internet was still buzzing with the news of their failed wedding. News broke out about Cruz's first engagement to Triana and it began to trend. In the end, only the women were blamed because they believed Cruz had already made himself clear enough that he would never be married. No one thought Cruz could be in trouble because throughout these days, he was online and even though he was replying, he posted a picture of himself treating an injured soldier which sparked more reaction online. The picture was dated back to two days after he left LA and therefore doesn't explain where he went to after having left Peru. Cruz's parents who were still staying at his house in Beverly Hills took it upon themselves to contact all the families they'd invited to apologize for the time wasted. They were embarrassed by the failed wedding but it was nothing compared to what Jessica felt. Cade

"Taken?" Leah scoffed in disbelief. "Yeah, you do looook like you were taken!" She mocked. "Cruz, are you being serious?" Tyler, who saw the seriousness in his eyes, asked. "Do you think I will joke about that? I thought you guys knew how much I love Jessica. My life would never be the same again and I will never forgive myself if I don't get to spend the rest of my life with her." He confessed his undying love.Leah was confused. She didn't know what to believe and she needed a little more convincing to believe him. "You want to make me believe that you were kidnapped yet no money was milked out of you or your family? If you were kidnapped they should have at least called to inform your family." Leah pointed out her observation. "Leah, I wasn't kidnapped for the money." Cruz replied. "So you mean someone purposely sabotaged your wedding by kidnapping you? Cruz, at least find a more convincing lie to tell." Leah dismissed Cruz's claim."We know a lot of people don't support you

Dave quickly ran into the car and sat on the driver's seat before shoving the bag of snacks into the back seat of the car. "Cruz, you can't give up so easily. Just because she's laughing happily with someone else doesn't mean she's over you. Even after you took those pictures of her and embarrassed her on several occasions, she forgave you and came back. This time around is not even your fault so I believe she will come around after hearing the truth." Dave motivated him and for a while, he felt he still had a chance with her. "Maybe you're what she needs to get back to her senses. It's barely been a week so if she's already with another man, it means she is doing it out of pressure or to stop herself from thinking about you. You will need to save her before she falls into a trap she's unknowingly setting for herself." He added and at this point, Cruz had no doubt in his mind. He was ready to knock sense back into Jessica's head and reclaim his spot in her life. "Do you think I s

Jessica remained mute for a while, making Cruz almost believe he had succeeded until she finally replied. "You're right. At some point, I was really curious. I just wanted to know why you did that to me but now I really don't care. I don't want to hear another set of lies and empty promises from you. Even if you have a good reason, it doesn't change anything. It's not like there is going to be another wedding again. I'm done making myself into a laughingstock so I will save you the stress of having to lie to me today. Just stay away. That's all you can really do for me now." She concluded and without looking into Cruz's eyes, she turned her back and went back to work. Cruz helplessly watched her leave. All the confidence and hope he had coming down here was completely shattered. He didn't know how to face his brother or his family but what was harder was how to live his life now that she was not in it and not willing to come back to it. For a while, he remained at the same spot wat

Derek hesitated before giving a reply. "No, it's his PA." He replied and Jessica sighed dishearteningly. 'Jessica, what were you expecting?' She thought to herself as she wiped out her tears. "What does he want? How did he even know about our house?" She fumed. "I hate to say this but he seems to want to talk about Cruz. I think he was waiting for me in front of the estate and I met him on my way to morning exercise. I didn't want to let him in but he seemed really worried and I had no other choice than to let him." Derek explained. Jessica became curious as to why he was there so she urged Derek to leave so she could change and come out. A few minutes later, Jessica joined Dave in the living room wearing a multicolored jumpsuit. "Jessica…" Dave mumbled awkwardly as he quickly stood up upon seeing Jessica. "You don't have to act so awkwardly around me. It's not like you caused my heartbreak." Jessica who noticed him said. "Umm…thanks." He mumbled as he sat back down after whi

"That's all the information I can give. For more inquiries on the case, please visit the Palmdale Local Police Station California. And please, be sure to make the payment if not it would be deducted from my salary." Ms. Nicolas suggested before ending the call. "OMG! Cruz, what have you gotten yourself into?" Dave wondered as he quickly stopped his car, and typed his new destination on his GPS before turning his car in that direction. It took him two hours to arrive at the nearest police station but it didn't take him long to receive information concerning Cruz because of his connections. He was invited into the office of the Station chief who explained the circumstances to him. "Mr. Westham's blood alcohol level was about 0.33 which is about 4 times over the blood alcohol level allowed for driving. Aside from that, he crashed into someone and the victim is in a critical condition. If things go south, it would be involuntary manslaughter. It's not going to be an easy case." The ch

Cruz gently raised his hand and removed his mask while trying to sit up."I'm not dying just yet." He sighed. Jessica was startled but she quickly helped him sit properly. "Are you alright? Do you need anything? Are you feeling pain anywhere?" She asked as she worriedly inspected Cruz's body. "I will go get the doctor." She affirmed as she attempted to leave but Cruz grabbed her hand and pulled her to sit on his bed. Her back was turned against him as he wrapped his hands around her waist, hugging her tight. "I missed you, Jessica. I missed you so much I thought I was going to go crazy." He confessed, breathing heavily. Jessica couldn't phantom her feelings at that moment. She would have loved to be there for him but she just couldn't push out the thoughts that he is the cause of her never ending pain. Upon hearing Cruz's response and firm grip on her, she guessed he must have been conscious for longer than she thought. "How long have you been awake?" She asked, feeling embarra

"Since it's your 'legal' first DUI and the victim is not dead, your sentence would have been from the range of 3 to 6 months or even a year after paying a fine. If we try to bribe our way out, it will tarnish your reputation when it gets public so the lawyer suggested we go through all the necessary procedures and leave the court cases." Dave explained but Cruz could tell he was hiding. "What the hell are you and Tennessee planning?" Cruz asked out of curiosity.Tennessee Marino was the leader of Cruz's legal team and she is one of the best lawyers in LA. She is very good at manipulating the court to her favor which was why she has never lost any case."You have never been interested in the process. Why now?" Dave asked curiously. "That's because there's never been a case when someone's life is on the line. I don't want you manipulating this case to the victim's disadvantage. Tell me what you Tennessee is planning or I will call her here myself." Cruz threatened. "Ok, that's enough

"Damn!” Dave exclaimed in awe. “Cruz can definitely hear us.” Dr. Kang affirmed. “Now back to why he is refusing to let us take her…”“Cruz, if you want us to treat Jessica, move your finger twice, if not move it three times.” He suggested and once again, Cruz answered by moving his fingers just twice. “And do you want us to take her? If yes, move your finger twice, otherwise, thrice.” Dr. Kang suggested again and this time, he moved his finger three times.“He wants her to be treated but he doesn’t want us to take her.” Dr. Kang explained. “That means he wants her to be treated here!” Klaus interpreted. “Perfect. Call her doctor! He should treat her here. It would only make Cruz’s condition improve.” Dr. Kang suggested. “And please, no one else must hear of this!” He warned again and the men agreed with her before Dave went to get her doctor. By the next morning, Jessica’s temperature was finally down but she was still in Cruz’s arms. The family was happy she was finally getting

"C-coma?" She stuttered as a lone tear trickled down her cheeks. Dave who was standing behind her slowly massaged her shoulder in an attempt to keep her calm. "How long is he going to be in that condition?" Klaus, who was sitting beside her, asked curiously. "No one can say. Cruz might never wake up." Dr. Kang added. Jessica felt her heart thumping wildly inside her chest. Even though she was prepared for any news, she never expected it to be this bad. As long as the life monitor was on Cruz could be alive but the moment it is turned off, that would be the end of his life. Fortunately, Cruz and his family were rich enough to pay for as long as it would take for him to recover. Everyone was shocked by the news. Every news channel was now carrying the news of Cruz’s misfortune. Fortunately, Cruz was well-loved and he received a lot of good wishes from the masses.THREE MONTHS LATERKlaus's wedding turned out a lot smaller than planned because Cruz's condition had changed everyone
Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher Comatose
Cade was the first to run into the room upon hearing her shriek. Fortunately, her voice pierced the soundproofed rooms thanks to the fact that Cruz has succeeded in opening the door ajar. Upon seeing Cruz's condition, Cade quickly got the attention of Dave and Klaus. ******Cruz was admitted to the emergency ward of his hospital with Dr. Kang and his assigned doctors working on him. Cade had called Dr. Kang as soon as the attack happened. Fortunately, Dr. Kang who had already predicted this was going to happen came to Los Angeles the same day Cruz had come which was why he directed them to Cruz's hospital and was able to meet up with them in time. Outside the ward was the whole family panicking while Cruz's parents pestered Dave to tell them what was going on. "Why did you have an oxygen mask with you as if you knew he was gasping for air? What is wrong with my son? Why is he in that shape?" Cruz's mom pestered Dave and Klaus, hoping any of them would spill the truth. But none o
Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher Last Attack
Jessica refused to get into the car when she was supposed to leave for her house and aside from being genuinely worried, everyone wanted to know why she was refusing to leave. "Before I leave, I want to be certain that she is nowhere near the house, or better still, I will lodge at a hotel." She finally stated her reason. "Jessica, you won't. I promise." Klaus tried to persuade her. "It doesn't matter. I don't want to live under the same roof as her." Jessica retorted. "Sister-in-law, Valeria can't leave because she was placed on house arrest. She can't even step out of the guesthouse. We can't let her off so easily after putting your life in such jeopardy." Cade added, trying to persuade Jessica to go home. "Did they persuade you to think that House Arrest will suffice? What could they possibly do to her since she is carrying their beloved boss and friends' safest child? I could lose my child anytime because of her but she's Cruz's second chance so they won't risk discomfortin
Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher His Return
Back in South Korea, Cruz had suffered another attack after the call and the doctors went through several hours of stress to stabilize him. It was only later the next day that Cruz finally regained his consciousness. By that time, Dave, who had left for South Korea the previous night, was already there with him. Dr. Kang was so pissed with them that he refused to speak with them. It took hours of convincing to finally get Dr. Kang to join them for a conversation but he had a patient to attend to and he agreed to join them once he was done. During that time, Cruz decided to question Dave about the circumstances back at home. "How is Jessica doing?" Cruz asked worriedly as he sat up on his bed, looking a lot thinner than he used to. "Klaus is taking care of things. Dr. Kang is mad because of your recent attack. Can you please try not to involve yourself in the family affairs for now? I promise we will take care of things." Dave pleaded. "How can I when I have completely ruined my
Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher House Arrest
By the time Dave was done with his call, he turned to meet Cade's confused gaze. "Whatever happens in the future, don't look for anyone to put the blame on." Dave warned before walking out on him, heading out of the hospital. Cade was confused about Dave's warning. All he knew was that his brother was a coward who couldn't stay with his wife when he needed her the most. He returned to the room where Jessica's mom was now sitting up, weeping. "I really didn't want to regret joining your family but now I do." She spoke out her mind while staring into Mrs. Westham's eyes. "Jessica really wanted to keep this baby. Now that this happened, she will never be the same again." She continued as she removed the IV connected to her hand and stood up to her feet. "We shouldn't all gather around me. Jessica is the patient here so let's wait around her room. I will take her back home as soon as she is discharged. She will no longer continue whatever this relationship is." She concluded an
Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher Miscarriage?
"Oh God!" Cade lamented. "F*ck! How could you do this again?" Dave asked as he started at Valeria in disbelief. Jessica was as confused as Valeria was. "What on earth did you give to her, b*tch?" Cade asked as he stood very close to Valeria as if she was trying to swallow her whole. "Cade, back off!" Jessica warned but Cade wasn't ready to listen to her. "What the f*ck did you give to her?" He scolded as he pushed her, making her flinch in fear. For every step she took backwards to create a space between, Cade closed in on her. Even though Cade was young, he was taller and had a well built body and with the anger in his eyes and rage in his voice, it was no doubt it scared Valeria. "Hey…w-what do you think you're doing?" Valeria stuttered. "Cade, I'm talking to you. Back the f*ck off!" Jessica scolded as she grabbed his hand and forcefully pulled him back. Dave didn't know what to do at that time since she already swallowed the pills and the only thing he could do was run ou
Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher Swallow
Cade couldn't stop himself from crying as he saw the condition Jessica was in. He tried to run to her but his legs felt heavy so he just trudged forward until he finally reached where she was seated.Jessica spread out her arms, calling him in for a hug but Cade was hesitant so Jessica pulled him closer and hugged him tightly. "I missed you." She whispered in his ear. Cruz sniffled hard as he tried to stop his cry. "I'm sorry Sister-in-law. I really am." Cade apologized in between his sniffles. "I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise of protecting you. While I was there having fun, I had no idea you were going through hell over here." He cried as he clenched onto her. "Cade, what was our last promise at the airport?" Jessica asked as she wiped her tears with the back of her right palm. Cade was hesitant, "To stop being nosy in your marriage.""Very good." Jessica sighed as she released him from the hug and made him sit beside her on the bed. "But this is not being nosy. You're cle
