Cruz returned to LA as early as possible and the first place he went to was his hospital but to his surprise, Jessica was not anywhere near the hospital. He immediately left his office to go in search of her but his secretary stopped him. "You have some patients to check on. You can't leave just yet." Ms. Rivera explained. "Get Valeria or any other doctor to do it. I'm busy." Cruz replied before sprinting out of the office.He almost bumped into Dr. Campbell who was coming into his office but he didn't even notice her. "What is wrong with the head surgeon?" Dr. Campbell asked as she walked in to meet Ms. Rivera. "I don't know. He has never been this unprofessional before." Ms. Rivera complained. While the ladies were still worrying about Cruz's sudden change in attitude, Cruz was already on his way to The One Estate to find Jessica. He couldn't stop complaining about Jessica's stubbornness and carelessness towards her health until he finally arrived at the estate. "Neither Ms.
"Who else would be that stupid and careless to take such a big step in someone else's life without the person's consent if not Cruz Westham?" Jessica replied, her eyes burning with furry. She tried to move her right hand once again but the pain reminded her it was out of use for now and she whimpered briefly. "Jessica, please try to calm down. I will contact him to take it down now." Klaus reassured but Jessica wanted to fight her battle by herself. "You don't have to do anything, Klaus. I will deal with him myself." Jessica replied and just then the nurses who were supposed to bring Jessica to the X-ray arrived. "Ma'am, please follow us for the X-ray." One of the nurses suggested. "Please, excuse us for five minutes and I will join you soon." Jessica suggested and without much hesitation, the nurses stepped out of the room. "Is there anything you'd…" "Please hand me the landline. I need to do something very important." Jessica begged and with hesitation, Klaus handed her the l
"Cruz!" Klaus called out angrily. "Mind your speech!" He warned but Cruz was least concerned about whatever he had to say. "Am I wrong, Ms. Jessica Vegas?" Cruz asked sarcastically, hurting Jessica even more. "Cruz, what are you doing?" Jason whispered to Cruz but he wasn't in the mood to respond. "I'm just being honest like always!" Cruz replied audibly as a mischievous smile sprouted on his lips.Jessica stared at him in shock for a while before she wiped her eyes and shut them for a while. "You're right to an extent. I almost ruined my friend's wedding thanks to my wrong judgment of people but he isn't a random guy. He is Klaus Wright. My friend!" Jessica replied and Cruz's mischievous smile quickly turned into a frown but he didn't want Jessica or anyone else to notice that so he let out sarcastic laughter. "Friend, huh? How do you select your friends? By looks or by net worth? I wonder which one Leah and Tyler were lacking for you to do that to her." Cruz accused, knowing th
"Mom? Have you been eavesdropping on me?" Cruz asked as a friend crept on his face. "I wasn't eavesdropping, I was listening!" Mrs. Westham replied as she sat on his bed."Let's assume you were listening, what's up with your response?" He asked again. "Just an honest answer!" She replied and Cruz became immediately alarmed as he sat beside his mom and glared at him. "You can't b serious, mom! Don't forget I'm your son you have to always be on my side." He reminded her. "Tsk…you know I will never lie to cover up for you. Cruz, you're a terrible person. You're not nice at all." She added, provoking Cruz even more. "Mom, that's so unfair! Do you know how many times I've gone out of my way to help that bitch? She's so annoying and she never sees what I do for her!" Cruz complained. "That's why you are such a terrible guy, Cruz. You're so pompous and egoistic. Think about it, the harm you've caused that lady is much more than the good you did for her." She reprimanded. "Mom!" Cruz c
"Exactly what you heard me say, Leah!" Dylan replied as he traced his finger on her face. “When I overheard Jessica talking on the phone with you that day, I thought tailing her all night will be of help and when I heard I disclose your secret to Cruz, I thought this was the perfect opportunity I have to separate you and Tyler forever but you managed to sort out your differences and ruined my plan. You thought coming down here will keep you and your baby safe but here you are…” "Get your filthy hands off me! And don't think about threatening my baby!" Leah interrupted as she pushed him off. ‘I knew Jessica can never betray me like this. I should have known this asshole is my only enemy.’ She thought to herself."What were you thinking? That I will let you and that asshole have your way after killing my baby? I agree you've always been his, but when you carried my child, you should have let it live. But no! You and Tyler were just too selfish to let another person's child ruin your
"Do you think something bad happened to Jessica? What if she tried to commit suicide? It is all my fault now!" Leah blamed herself as she burst out in tears. "Seriously, Leah! How can you even imagine such a thing about Jessica? And you're even taking the blame." Tyler complained. "I know I shouldn't think like this but…" Leah's voice trailed off as Tyler's phone rang once again. "Cruz…why did you end the call like that? What happened to Jessica?" Tyler asked curiously as soon as he answered the call. "You don't have to worry about her because even if she is not with me, she is in safe hands." Cruz replied. "What do you mean by that?" Leah asked eagerly. "I meant she found a really nice guy and a perfect company to keep her happy for a very long…" "What rubbish are you spewing? You know we're only calling you because we can't reach Jessica. Where is she right now?" Leah asked angrily. "Tsk…you're already married but you still don't have any patience. I'm only trying to say th
Luckily, Jason saw Cruz right before she got to where Klaus and his family were. “Cruz, what the fuck are you trying to do?” Jason whispered to Cruz.“I just wanted to confront them. If they are in a relationship, they should make it public. I would really love to see how everyone on WeCom reacts to Klaus’ relationship with a girl whose nude is all over the social media.” Cruz explained though that was not what was going on in his mind. The only thing that annoyed him was the fact that Jessica was with Klaus. He hated the idea of seeing them together and he feared a relationship might develop between the two. “Are you out of your mind? What do you think you’re doing? We are in a public place and any rubbish you try here will be all over the internet.” Jason warned but that was the least of Cruz’s worries at the moment.“I don’t give a fuck! My daily life is reported on the news with or without my permission. Everyone knows how many ladies I fuck in a day to the extent that I have n
"What the hell are you doing here?" Klaus bellowed furiously as he attempted to pick a fight with him but Jessica held him back."What are you doing in my room?" Jessica asked furiously. "Do you think I would want to come to this place after you embarrassed me the other time? I only came here because…""Embarrassed you? You insulted and embarrassed me the other day and now you're playing that victim?" Jessica asked with a creased brow but Cruz dropped his head and remained mute. "You know what? It doesn't matter anymore. Just tell me the reason you're her…" "Cruz, look, I brought the fruits." Cade interrupted unintentionally as he pushed the door open and came inside with a basket of fruits in his hand.A big smile spread on his lips as soon as he set his eyes on Jessica and immediately, he dropped the basket on the medium-sized table in the room and ran to give Jessica a tight hug. "Hey, be careful…" Klaus and Cruz unintentionally chorused and an awkward silence ensued between th
