“But he would listen to you,” he said and she stood up at once.“No, I’m not doing it. It’s not a nice idea and there’s zero percent chance he would even listen to me or believe me” Hannah said and Brandon let out. Sigh.“I know this might come as a surprise to you but Lucas cares about you. Trust me he would listen to you. Please, you are the only hope of helping my brother get out of this woman’s plan” Brandon said and Hannah paused for a few seconds before she finally responded.“Okay, fine, I will try,” she said and Brandon smiled at her. Just then they heard a knock on the door. Hannah opened the door and saw the maids holding the shopping bag she had left in the car. “Thank you “ Hannah muttered as she took the bags from them and took them in.Hannah took the bags in and placed them by the side of the bed. Just then Brandon heard his phone ring.He checked the caller’s ID and saw it was a call from the office. He ended the phone call and put it back in his pocket. “You shoul
Lucas walked out of the house, hopped in his car, and drove out of the compound.He had gone to a bar to cool off his head. He didn’t want to believe what Hannah and Brandon had told him.He doesn’t trust his brother, but he trusts Hannah and she would never lie to him. He sighed softly as the waiter brought the drink which he had ordered for.He took the glass and gulped down everything at once. Just then someone touched him from behind, he turned and saw Jules, Lisa’s best friend.He wondered what she was doing at the bar he was at, again. If she was following him.“Hey, Lucas,” Jules muttered as she sat beside him. He stared at her and looked away. She rolled her eyes and then ordered two glasses of drink, one for her and the other for Lucas.“What do you want, Jules?” Lucas asked as the waiter put the glass of drink in front of him.“Nothing, I just want to spend time with you,” she said and he raised his eyebrows wondering what she meant by she just wanted to spend time with hi
Lucas's car screeched to a halt in front of the mansion. He had alighted the car and entered the house looking furious and confused.He climbed upstairs to his room to see if Lisa was there but she wasn't. He wondered where she had gone too. He walked out of the room and then saw a maid and asked if she had seen Lisa and she said she was in the kitchen. He decided to check the kitchen. He climbed downstairs and walked towards the kitchen when he heard Hannah and Lisa conversing, much more like they were arguing. He walked towards the kitchen and stood by the door while he watched them exchange words.They hadn't seen him yet.“Lucas is the one who’s getting in my way, I just need to get rid of him completely and boom, Brandon and I will be back together again” she said and Hannah stared at her speechlessly.Lucas is easy to manipulate, everything would be under my control soon.He froze the moment he heard what she had said, Hannah was right, she was using him. He thought she love
“Did you say Mellisa is alive?” He asked again to be sure and she nodded. “She’s lying to you Brandon, we all know Mellisa is not alive,” Jessica said and Lisa shot her a deadly glare and then turned to Brandon.“I wouldn’t lie to you about my daughter Brandon. Our daughter, I can’t do that, she’s alive Brandon and I’m telling the truth” she said and Lucas scoffed.“Take her out,” Lucas says to the security.“No one would touch her,” Brandon said and the security men froze at once and moved back.Jessica stared at Brandon speechlessly.Lisa stared at Lucas and then at the security before moving closer to Brandon.“Ask them to bring my clothes in,” she said calmly. “No, you tell me where Mellisa is or I will be the one to throw you out myself,” he said with no emotion in his eyes and she let out a sigh and nodded. “When Mellisa was kidnapped, I found out who kidnapped her and they demanded a ransom. I paid for the ransom and asked them to tell you she was dead because I found out so
He tilted his head and suddenly smashed his lips on hers.He pulled away from the kiss and then opened the door for her. “You can go continue your cooking,” he said and she stared at him and quickly looked away as she felt her cheeks turn red. Hannah smiled as she went to the kitchen and prepared dinner. After which the family had dinner together, except Lucas who was at the wine cellar, drinking himself too stupid.Hannah had assisted the maids in clearing the table.She was about to walk out of the kitchen when Brandon walked towards her.“You look worried during dinner, what’s wrong?” He asked as they both walked out of the kitchen. “I’m worried about Lucas, he’s hurt,” Hannah said and Brandon sighed.“He’s going to be alright,” he said and Hannah nodded. Just then the front door opened revealing Lisa.“She’s back” Hannah muttered with an eye roll as she and Brandon moved towards her. “And where is the child?” Brandon asked and Lisa stared at the both of them and then turned to
“She asked you to stay away from me?” Hannah asked and Mellisa nodded and she hummed.“Where did you and your mommy live, Mellisa?” Hannah asked.“We stayed at……”“Melissa, it’s time for bed,” Lisa, who is seen climbing down the stairs, said , cutting off her speech. “But I’m hungry, you said once we arrive I would eat nice food here,” she said as she touched her stomach. “There’s food in the kitchen Melissa, I could get you some,” Hannah said and Lisa rolled her eyes. “No, I would get her food myself. Stay away from my child, Hannah, and stop interrogating her” Lisa said as she clenched her fist before pulling Mellisa away.She dragged her upstairs to the guest room and closed the door behind her then turned to Mellisa with a furious look on her face.“What? Don't give me that look. I did exactly as you asked me to, I’m hungry, can you please get me food, now” she said as she sat on the bed and let out a sigh.“I thought I told you to stay away from Hannah and not answer any quest
“I’m so sorry Lucas. I’m so sorry for what happened” she said and just then she pulled him into a warm hug.Just then she pulled away from the hug.“Come, I will take you to your room,” she said as she helped him out of the wine cellar and took him to his room.She helped him lie on the bed and covered him properly with the duvet. She glared at him for some seconds and was about to walk away when he held her hands.“Hey,” she muttered as she turned to him.“Could you please spend the night with me?” He said and Hannah furrowed her brows as she sat beside him.“I can’t Lucas, you have to rest,” she said and he opened his eyes and tried sitting up but Hannah held him.“You should be resting, Lucas, don’t move,” she said but he refused to lay down, he then sat on the bed.“Why didn’t you tell me in time that Lisa was lying to me?” Lucas asked.“I don’t know, maybe because you love her too much and you wouldn’t believe me,” she said as she paused while staring deep into her oceanic eyes.
This isn’t going to end well, Hannah thought.“Hello Jessica, what’s wrong? You look mad, even your hair looks mad, I hope you slept well” Lisa said and Jessica frowned.“No, I didn’t because there's been the smell of rats since you arrived at this house and it’s making me nauseous, you dirty chihuahua,” Jessica said and Hannah sighed. “And where is your gigolo, he's not with you this morning. Oh I’m shocked or is he tired of following you around like a pet” Lisa said and Jessica Clenched her fist.“He’s not a gigolo and I would remind you again, I’m married. Not everyone is a whore like you who sleeps around with men they make eye contact with” Jessica said and Lisa gritted her teeth.“There are kids here” Hannah muttered and they both composed themselves immediately.Mellisa stared at Jessica and then looked away with a look of fear on her face. Jessica was looking so scary at that moment and she could chop off Lisa’s head at that moment if she could.The octuplets stared at Meliss
Meanwhile, it was evening and the whole house was now calm. Jessica left the house angrily as she didn't want to set her eyes on Linda again. She wasn't planning on returning home anytime soon.The octuplets were back from school and were playing around. Arianna had gone to spend some time with Micheal.Hannah and Brandon had just returned from the office. They spent some time with the kids, made sure they had dinner, and after which they had gone to their room.After the kids left the dining room, Hannah and Brandon are seen at the dining room discussing. “Do you think you would be able to manage your dad’s company?” Brandon asked as he drank from the glass of water on the table. Hannah’s father had passed his company to Hannah before he died. He had written it in his will.“Yeah, But we are going to be linking both companies together, I think it would be easier to operate that way” Hannah muttered, Nranfon nodded and then beckoned for her to come to sit on his leg and she did.“I'
“Where’s that useless woman called Linda, where is she?” She yelled as she walked inside the house. “Jessica, what’s come over yo…-.” Lucas's speech was interrupted with a dirty slap on his face. Jessica had slapped him.Everyone opened their eyes wide in shock. “What was that for?” He asked, still in shock, at what had happened.“You psychotic liar!” She yelled and threw the pictures at him and then turned to Hannah.“Where’s Linda?” She asked.“She’s outside, I think” Hannah muttered and Jessica bounced out of the house angrily to go find Linda.Hannah stared at Lucas, whose face was red from the slap. He placed his hands on his cheeks while he held the picture in his hands, staring at it.Hannah picked up one of the pictures from the ground and stared at it and then turned to Lucas.Brandon, who had just witnessed what happened, walked towards Hannah and stared at the picture. He was surprised. “You’ve been seeing Mom for a long time now?” He asked as he raised his head and sta
There were different pictures of Humphery and Linda together from when he was a baby to his teenage years. But then she paused and opened her eyes wide with the next picture she saw. “Oh my goodness!” She muttered the moment she picked up the picture. It was a picture of Lucas Linda and Humphrey together.She checked the date on the picture, it was a picture from just last month. She took another picture of them and stared at the date, it was from the last three weeks.“Lucas knew all this while, he knew about her, he knew about Humphery too when he came to our house but then pretended to hate him. He knew everything”, Jessica thought as she put the pictures in her bag. She felt so hurt that Lucas had lied to them. She walked out of the room and saw Humphery was still in the kitchen.“Uhm, I’ll be on my way now, humphrey” Jessica muttered and then walked out of the house. She hopped inside her car and zoomed off.Before Humphery could run out of the kitchen to say a proper goodbye
Jessica and Linda are seen together doing their pedicure and manicure in a room at the mansion, while they both sip the glass of alcohol in a glass beside them.Jessica stared at her mom and then looked away.“Gently” she said to the maid, cutting her nails.“So, where have you been all these years?” Jessica turned to Linda smiled.“You know have been on my own with Humphery, traveling around, going to Europe, Christmas in Miami, new year in Malaysia”“How about the capital of Canberra?” Jessica asked and kindly smiled.“Well, I haven’t been there recently”.“Too bad,” Jessica responded.“Why don’t you ask me what you’d like to ask me? Instead of plying me with alcohol to loosen my tongue. You know I know these tricks already, you got it from me.If there’s something you want to know, I have nothing to hide” Linda said and Jessica scoffed. Thank God, she just needed to go straight to the point.She then asked the maids to leave as they needed some privacy.“Why now?” She asked.“What
Meanwhile, it was morning and Hannah had woken up early to prepare breakfast for the kids and got them dressed for school, after which, the chauffeur took them to school.She then assisted the maid in setting breakfast for the entire family. After which, everyone started coming downstairs one after the other. Everyone was sitting in the dining area except Jessica, Brandon, and Linda.“Where’s Jessica and Brandon?” Lucas asked as he sat down. “Brandon is in his study room, Jessica must be in her room” Hannah muttered and Lucas nodded.Just then they saw Linda climbing down the stairs. She was putting on a short translucent nightwear. Arianna rolled her eyes the moment she saw her. “Good morning” Hannah greeted and Linda glared at her and looked away without responding. Hannah shook her head.“Lisa, Good morning, how was your night?“ Linda asked as she moved towards Lisa and Lisa stood up and hugged her.“My night was fine. How was yours? I hope you like it in your room?” Lisa asked
“Honey, you could if you want to but do it in an open place because I do not trust her, she might kidnap you at any given chance, no offense,” Arianna said Hannah turned to her and she shrugged. Jessica nodded and stood up before going upstairs to her room.Meanwhile, Hannah turned to Arianna.“Seems like the both of you do not like each other…” Hannah muttered and Arianna rolled her eyes.“She’s a bitc*. Truth is when I first came into the Colby house, I came in as a nanny for the kids.Linda and Thomas had just split, did you know she threatened me? She would send people after me thinking I was the reason her husband divorced her” Arianna muttered with an eye roll.“Were you?” Hannah asked.“What? No. I was only working there at that time. Thomas and I only became a thing 6 months after Linda left” Arianna muttered and Hannah nodded and sighed.“I don’t want her in this house. I wish I could kick her out” she muttered and Hannah turned to her.“Mom, give them a chance to get to kno
The moment they got upstairs, he met Lisa standing by the stair rails. He wondered how long she'd been there and if she'd been watching the whole drama take place.“Hello, welcome Ma'am. It's an honor to meet the woman who gave birth to Lucas'' Lisa said as she moved towards Linda and hugged her.Linda was surprised, this was the only person who had welcomed her into the house fully. She wondered who Lisa was.“Thank you sweetheart” Linda muttered and kissed her on her cheeks.“Come on Mom, I need to show you your room,” Lucas said and walked away. Linda smiled at Lisa before walking away.“Who is she? “ Linda asked.“Not someone you should know…” Lucas said as he opened the door to the room and they walked in.“I think I like her, she's so welcoming and nice. She's the only person who has welcomed me here” Linda muttered as she entered the room and then sat on the bed.Lucas turned to her.“I thought I told you not to come to the mansion until I talk to Brandon…”“I couldn't wait, Ca
A week laterMeanwhile, Daniel’s funeral was done and he was buried.Everyone had just returned home from the funeral and was already tired. They decided to eat some food as they were hungry.“I'll set the table, you all can go change your clothes,” Arianna said and they all went upstairs including the kids to change their clothes but Hannah hadn't left, instead she stayed with Arianna as she decided to help her. It's been a week since Daniel died, it's been hard for Hannah and Arianna but with the help of family surrounding them, they were able to push through and not think so much about it. “Hannah, could you pass me the knife?” Arianna asked and Hannah passed her the knife. Just then they both heard a knock on the door.“I'll go get the door…”“No, it's fine, I'll go get it,” Hannah said, cutting off Arianna’s speech and then went to open the door.The moment she opened the door, she saw a woman with red curly hair, with a smile on her face and huge luggage, beside her.“Who are
Meanwhile, Brandon who is seen lying on the bed with Hannah who has her head on his chest heard his phone ring. It was a call from the DPO, he quickly answered the phone call. He heaved a sigh of relief Jeff had been caught, now he would pay for everything by being in jail and justice would be served.“Thank you DPO, I'm on my way,” he said and ended the call. He stared at Hannah who was asleep. He didn't want to wake her up, so he gently removed her head from his chest and helped her lye on the bed.He covered her properly with the duvet and walked out of the room.The moment he walked out, he climbed downstairs and walked outside the house, after which he entered his car and drove off to the police station.The moment he got to the station, he alighted his car and walked inside the station. He went to the DPO’s office. They discussed and the DPO made a call and asked for Jeff to be brought in. A few minutes later Jeff was brought in.Brandon stood up the moment he saw Jeff who was
