Skylar woke up the following morning drunk and hangover. She quickly stood up and ran into the bathroom to vomit. She didn't know how she got to be so drunk? And why didn't Vino stop her?

She walked out of the bathroom, her eyes taking in the room, the model wallpaper on the wall. Skylar stood shocked as she forced herself to remember where she was. This wasn't her room and neither was it Vino's.

Skylar gasped as soon as she remembered Leon forcing her out of the party and Vino coming over to rescue her. Fresh tears rolled down her eyes, when Vino had walked away from her without waiting for any explanation, he had left her hanging just as Leon had done when he found out she was carrying his child. What is it with men and pregnancy? They seem to recoil as soon they find out that their woman is pregnant.

As long as Vino was by her side, she trusted him to protect her just as he had done in the garden.Skylar stood up from the bed, walked to the window, and stared at the ocean which was at the far end of the property. A lot of things were on her mind and mostly all of them were about Vino. She has made up her mind to tell him how she really feels about him but one thing was stopping her, what if he's not in love with her? What if he only wanted her for a girlfriend and nothing else? She really needs to talk to Paula about this as she was confused.Skylar stepped away from the window to go pick up her phone which was

Vino was shocked to see her running away from him. He reluctantly stepped out of the car to follow while wondering what could make her keep her distance from him? Was it what Michael said? But Vino wasn't in Skylar's mind to read her thoughts. “ Are you alright?” Vino asked her as he got to where she stood ringing the doorbell continuously. Does she hate me so much that she couldn't spend a second with me? Vino thought in his mind as his face pulled up in a frown. “Yes, I'm fine. Thank you for today, I enjoyed my day with your brothers ” Skylar replied lying as she avoided his eyes. Though she had enjoyed her day, what Michael had said was eating her up that

She couldn't believe that the last time she was here was the night of the party where Leon had threatened her.Skylar shudders from the thoughts, as she forces herself to open the door. She walked in and stopped short, in front of the door was a big card with “ Welcome back to the office, Miss Evans ” written on it.Skylar gasped as she walked into the reception a bit embarrassed by the idea while also wondering whose idea that was! She knew it wasn't Vino as he wouldn't do something so childish for her.“ Look who's finally here after disappearing?” Cynthia greeted Skylar as she stepped out from behind the counter where she was looking for some documents for Mr. Falcone.

He fears that she might leave him, that is why he's behaving coldly with her. If only he knew, Elise would show up. He might have warned her earlier.“ Vino!” Elise called to him, forcing a smile on her face as she ran up to wrap her hands around him in excitement. She gazed into his brown eyes, remembering the time she had spent with him.“I miss you so much ” Elise drew pouting up at Vino who ignored her but kept her hands wrapped around his body which was shocking to Elise.

    Skylar stepped into the Thompson's Art Centre the next morning feeling embarrassed. She had talked herself from coming to work today, but no matter what excuses her subconscious mind has; she has always found enough reason to go. She wouldn't give Vino the satisfaction that he could hurt her. She doesn't care if he wants to be with his first love or not; she is going to work and learn to be independent just as she had always been. “Hey Skylar ” Skylar came out of her thoughts to see Cynthia coming over from her table to drag Skylar down the hall to the cafeteria, which was empty save for the chef at this time of the morning. “What's going on Cyn? Where are you taking me to?” Skylar protested loudly as she pulled Cynthia to a stop and glared at her with her hands clutch

She considered waiting for Paula, who was still in the car with her husband, discussing but Skylar didn't want to feel like she needed to depend on anyone. She could handle Vino herself. She was an independent lady. Skylar strolled into the hall where the Charity Ball was taking place. There were many people here tonight, many of them she had never met. Skylar shrugged as her eyes caught the painting on the wall. They were different drawings of children from different works of life. Skylar gulped as she run her hands through one, captivated by the smile on the little boy whose cloth was torn but still had a smile on his face, his dark-skinned and a dimple on his cheek got through her, she would donate all her savings to make sure that, that little boy smile remains on his face.

Just how many drinks did you have last night?” Mrs Evans replied, already rushing to her daughter's side as she placed her hands on her forehead, trying to gauge her temperature.“Thank goodness.

No one would think to look there. Considering how much his mother had always hated Skylar, he knew she would never believed he was keeping Skylar under her nose.“ Leon, please let me go. You can't keep me hostage forever” Skylar groaned as he pleaded with him. This was their usual routine anytime he came to check on her and deliver her food.“ Of course, darling. I'm letting you go today. We are going to see the sunshine” Leon's face breaks into a smile as he squat down in front of her where she was tired to the floor. He placed a tray of food in front of her, his eyes straying to her stomach. Skylar watched the smile disappear from his eyes as he clenched his fiset in anger.

If it was some message from his business rivals, he will kill that fucking son of a bitch with his bare hands. He wouldn't mind being termed a murderer if it means protecting his family.“ Yes, Vino, open it. It might be the clue to Skylar. please be strong” Michael told his brother as he urged him on while nodding.Vino stares at his family to see the concern and care on their faces. He swallowed his fear and ripped the nylon apart. A little shiny thing fell off his hands onto the tiled floor making a clicking noise as it hit the floor.Vino gasped, he didn't need to look before he knew what that was. It was Skylar's engagement ring. He would recognize it anyway in the world as it was a custom made one. Only Skylar has that design.“ Whe__re di__d you g_et that?” Vino stammered between tears as he sank into the couch while breaking down in tears.

He smoothed out his uniform and took the seat across from them. With his pen in his hands, he started his questioning.“ With nothing missing, this rules out the possibility of theft. Mrs Evan who do you think would kidnap your daughter” Inspector Scott asked Mrs Evans who was dabbing at the tears in her eyes and trying to think hard on his questions.With the notepad and pen in hand, the inspector was waiting for the answers but it seemed none was forthcoming.

    “ Miss Brooke '' Vino called to Madison who stood up and rushed into the office, she gasped for breath before closing the door behind her. She stood in front of Vino trying to make out the reason why he was calling her. “ Here,” Vino told her as he handed her a file while standing up from his chair. He has been putting finishing touches on the annual file budget paper.“ Give this to Mr Falcone. He will understand” Vino answered as he waved Madison out of his office while he took out his phone to place a cal through to Skylar.Ever since the announcement of their engagement, the media has been on their heels trying to get a comment or two from them but they have been busy trying to round up their company’s business but now they could grant an interview to them.Vino jolted out of his thought as soon as he noticed that Skylar’s number was not going through.

    Skylar's gaze shot up to stare into Leon's face, searching for signs of a joke but seeing the hard glare in there she couldn't help shivering in fear. What if he's not joking? What if he's going to force her to marry him? Will she be able to leave with him? What about Vino? And her baby, will she ever forgive her weak mother.“ No, I can't let him control me the second time. Back then I was naive and alone but now, I'm no longer alone.

    “ What should we do now? Is she dead?” Ty asked in a frantic voice as he scrambles around searching for God’s knows what…“ Be quiet!” Leon screamed at him as he squatted down to examine Skylar. The brave facade he presented to the world would have fooled everyone if not for the escalating of his heart in his rib cage which shows his fear as he turned to call something to a shocked Ty who was having a problem with breathing.“ Will you stop behaving like a sissy and go get water?” Leon shouted at him immediately, his hands felt the pulse coming out from Skylar. Only then could he relax as he started to work on reviving her.Ty rushed into the kitchen and almost fell against the cabinet as he right his wrong foot and collected
