In a dimly lit room, that man is looking at the same view of the on going vehicles and the busily buzzing Streets with a blank gaze. That person's eyes are vacant of all the emotions, as if he lost everything that he once held dear. "I heard that Sierra is trending" he inquired of his assistant. The assistant pulled out the trending news of Sierra on his iPad. The man didn't bother to touch the iPad, but looked at the news. "Well, this is interesting. This is our opportunity to kidnap Sierra. If we kidnap her now, Xavier will think that it might be Derek. And he would be the obvious suspect, considering their ongoing battle. Xavier will be taken by surprise when we attack him when he is going after Derek. Kidnap her by tomorrow" the person instructed. The assistant agreed and left. On the other hand, Esther is fuming, and so is Derek. The reputation of both the mother and son is now in shreds, and all because of Sierra. "I always cautioned you not to act rashly. But you never l
"What kind of a leader do we have? He is taking advantage of a young woman in broad daylight. He doesn't have fear and respect over the law and order. He should resign immediately" Noel is speaking in a press conference which he arranged on an urgent basis. As the topic is about President Nathan, even the media was eager to take this interview and broadcast it live. "Sir, do you know who this girl is?" one of the reporters asked Noel. Noel looked at her gravely. "Yes, she is the daughter of his vice president Mrs. Dorothy" he revealed. Gasps of shock and surprise echoed among the media people. "Sir, do you think that President Nathan is forcing the girl and her parents?" another reporter Inquired. Noel banged the desk in front of him to emphasize his point. "Of course he is. If not, how can any parent willingly allow their daughter to date a man who is more than a decade older than their daughter?" he realised confidently. Noel managed to create havoc in Nathan's life. He tar
"I messed up everything for him. All of his hardwork, his reputation and everything. This must be the reason why he never encouraged me. But i refused to give up. Now look at what everyone is calling him. They are calling him a Pedophile. But he is the sweetest man I know. Even though I did everything to seduce him and was ready to do anything for him, he never took advantage of him. Instead, he requested my mom to make me understand the gravity of the situation. But I didn't listen to any of them and didn't change my mind. Now look what happened" Cathy confessed sadly. Sierra and Claire are looking at her with worry. "Cathy, what you did is not wrong. You liked him, so you pursued him. No one will bother if he is not who he is. Now that he is a public figure, everything he does will be seen under a microscope. Don't be sad. I am sure everything will settle down soon" Sierra tried to pacify Cathy who is sniffing and crying miserably. Claire rubbed Cathy's back to comfort her. Ju
"Now I understand that we cannot be together. I used to think that my love for you is enough. But it looks like it's not enough. I don't know why everyone is blaming when it was me who was hell bent on pursuing you. Please forgive me Nathan" Cathy said with fake tears streaming down her cheeks. Sierra sprinkled some glycerine near her eyes, which made her eyes tear up continuously and turn red. It convinced everyone that Cathy is indeed distressed and trying to commit suicide. Shocked gasps echoed around the media people and the others who were watching Cathy standing dangerously close to the edge. "What? You are in love with President Nathan?" the fire fighter asked with shock. As this incident attracted so much attention, everything is being telecasted live on the television. Cathy sniffed in her microphone and wiped her tears, looking pitiful. "Yes, I am in love with him" she declared. At that moment, Nathan snatched the microphone from the firefighter. "Cathy, please come do
"I will only love you"When the people who are watching Cathy's love confession on their television screens, they start to feel bad for her.'Poor girl''She is right. That Noel Thomas has a daughter. Why is he targeting other people's families?''Yes, it's Noel Thomas and his campaigner Flinn started this''Poor Cathy, she is suffering from loving someone wholeheartedly ''I know our President is not a bad man''We were misled into believing that Mr. The President is a bad man''Our President is ready to sacrifice his life for his duty''I think our President should marry Cathy''Age doesn't matter if you love someone wholeheartedly''I think Cathy would make a perfect match for our President'Cathy's drama started to sway the public opinion about this issue. They no longer believe that Nathan is a Pedophile and he trapped Cathy. Her love confessing made everyone believe that he is not what Noel pointed Nathan to be.On the other hand, near the Presidential building, Cathy still refu
After Cathy jumped, both Sierra and Claire were stunned. They peeked down to assure that Cathy is safe. "I can't believe she jumped" Claire said with a smile of amusement. Sierra grinned. "She is a handful. I am sure Nathan is going to have a tough time resisting this one" she commented with mirth. Claire agreed with her. Everyone was busy with Cathy and Nathan. No one noticed the man who snuck inside the President building and stealthily made his way towards the terrace. "Come, let's go now. Xavier and Adam will be waiting for us" Sierra reminded Claire. They both unlocked the iron door of the terrace from inside revealing a staircase. "Si, let's take the lift. I can't walk down these three floors. My feet are killing me after sitting on my knees for this long" Claire complained. Sierra laughed at how miserable Claire looked. They both had to sit on their knees and hold on the rope to make sure that Cathy wouldn't fall. They sat for more than an hour. And that position w
"What were you thinking Cathy? Is this the way you behave with a government servant in front of so many people? Do you even realise the weight of what you just did? What if you get hurt or something? What about your parents?" Nathan was seen scolding Cathy for the drama she created. Cathy is pouting with annoyance. "Are you angry that I kissed you in front of everyone? Is it ok if I kiss you when we are alone?" she countered with her sassy mouth. Dorothy who was about to enter inside Nathan's cabin caught the tail end of their conversation and decided to let Cathy handle the mess she created. And this is Cathy's relationship problem, so she decided to trust her daughter to solve it on her own. So she turned and left. Inside the cabin, Nathan glared at Cathy. The fact that she climbed on to the rooftop and threatened to jump is as immature as it could be. And instead of feeling guilty, she is arguing with him. "You..." he opened his mouth to scold her, but decided against it at th
Derek was seen drinking in a private room of a pub. He looked worse for the wear as if he had been drinking for hours now. He couldn't forget his humiliation by the hands of Sierra. All of his friends and his acquaintances are laughing at him. They are making fun of him which he is unable to forget. His father is angry with him and his mother is not pleased either. The employees in the company which he was supposed to inherit are looking at him like he is a thief and a womanizer. They are barely respecting him. "Sierra, you shouldn't have done what you did. I hate you. I wanted to marry you. But you ruined me. Now I will ruin you as well" he cursed Sierra loudly in the confines of the private cabin. Empty bottles of alcohol are lined up on the table. And these are all the bottles which he finished himself. He is slurring and at this point his words don't make any sense at all. He is rambling incoherently. Only Sierra's name can be heard clearly. And he is taking it in a mixture
"Dad, dad" Renee bent her head while crying for Augustine who was lying in the pool of his own blood. The metallic scent inside the room is so thick, that it's suffocating. Janine was watching Renee with malice. "Dad" Renee's sobs didn't melt Janine's heart. Instead, her hunger for death only intensified. "What did you think of me Renee?" her voice made Renee jump with shock. Renee snapped her head and looked at Janine who had blood all over her hands. She was holding a bloody knife in her right hand, which was still dripping with blood. "How can you? He is your husband. You used to love him so much. Then what happened? Why did you kill him like this?" Renee demanded Janine with anger and pain. Janine sneered. "You both abandoned me and Maddy. You took their side and ruined my efforts to kill Xavier. If not for you and that dead man, i would have already killed Xavier and we could have gone back to the states once again. But no, you had to find out everything and your father had
The fact that Janine is alive but Noel is dead spread like fire. Noel is not just anyone. He is a famous politician. His death spiked multiple debates across the country. Hunt for Janine began, while Janine was hell bent on killing Sierra and Xavier. 'Who killed Noel Thomas?' 'Can it be Janine?' 'Where is Janine?' 'Why is after Mr. Woods?' Speculations started to float across the country. The story of why Janine started to hate the woods family so much and how she became responsible for Gawin's death along with his father's became a trending topic. Everyone started to feel sorry for Claire and started to hate Daisy for her poor choices. After finding out that she became a pawn for Janine and destroyed her own life, Daisy became depressed. Nancy was still shocked to learn that her father is dead. Douglas was shocked too. When everyone was reeling in the aftermath of Janine's destruction, the lady in question was plotting against her own family. This time she is targeting August
'Its true' 'Some one really dug up Mrs. Augustine's grave' 'How can anyone disrespect a dead person like this?' 'Is it really Mr. Woods and our President behind this?' 'If not, then why will that person tag them along with the pictures?' 'I still can't believe that they can do this' 'Why can't they let a dead person rest in peace?' As the pictures of the grave digging became viral, the media and the curious public rushed to the cemetery to see if it was true. When they saw an open grave of Janine, they started to suspect that it's indeed Xavier and Nathan who are somehow involved in this. Within minutes this news became viral. Every news channel started broadcasting the news live from the Cemetery. Pictures of Xavier, Nathan, Carlos and Adam were shown on the tv screen to build the hype along with Janine's picture. 'Mr. President, are you involved?' 'Is Mr. Woods involved?' News channels started using eye-catching tags like this to drag public interest and escalate scrutiny
Janine stealthily slipped inside Xavier's room where his mobile was ringing. She held the knife tightly with both her hands. She is ready to strike the moment she spotted Xavier. But when she scanned the room, she found no one. She strained her ears to hear any noise apart from the mobile ringing. But she couldn't hear anything. After the mobile stopped ringing, silence greeted her. 'Where are they? This is their room and his mobile is here. Why is he not answering his phone?' Janine thought angrily. She searched the room without bothering to keep quiet. She searched the entire house, but she found herself alone in the dark house. She was so angry, she wanted to light fire and burn the house down. But just then, she heard the unmistakable sound of Sirens wailing at a distance. 'He escaped and alerted the cops? How did he even find out about my plan?' she thought angrily. She escaped from the house through the kitchen door before the cops could catch her. On the other hand, Nath
"Nathan, I think my mom is still alive. Just now i felt like I saw someone who looked similar to my mom just outside Xavier's house" Renee anxiously explained to Nathan. But instead of believing her, Nathan frowned with disapproval. "Renee, I started to believe that you changed. If this is one of your tricks to stop Xavier and Sierra's wedding, then I suggest you stop this. Sierra gave you a chance. Don't ruin it by doing all these nasty things" he reprimanded her. Renee's eyes pooled with unshed tears at the harshness of his words. "I know I have done some things which i shouldn't have, which I regret. But Nathan, this time I am telling the truth. I swear on everything I hold dear. No, I swear on Xavier. I think my mom is still alive. We have to caution Xavier and Sierra, Please" she begged him. Nathan was taken aback when she swore on Xavier, whom Renee loves so much. He suddenly applied brakes on his vehicle and immediately took a 'U' turn. If what Renee said is true, th
Claire was not very happy about Renee, but Cathy decided to stay neutral. Nathan and Xavier were Renee's friends for years, so they forgave her when Sierra decided to give Renee a chance. "I will get going now. Please don't call me if I could be of any help during your wedding preparations" Renee offered. Sierra smiled. "Sure" she agreed. Claire is not ready to trust Renee just yet. She witnessed how vile and vicious Renee can be. So she doesn't want to forgive her so soon. She is feeling that Renee is just pretending to be nice. After Renee left, Claire couldn't hold back any longer. "Si, what are you doing? How can you forget everything she did to you? At her party, at the mall, in this home, she insulted you countless times. How can you just forgive her because she has mommy issues?" she demanded with displeasure. Sierra was quiet. Indeed Renee did all that. "Claire, you cannot label a person as bad based on their past deeds. What she did was wrong. And she is feeling gu
After two weeks, Slowly everyone started to forget about Janine. Augustine decided to take Renee to the states. Maddy passed away too, and her cremation was a close knit affair. Her grave was beside Janine's grave. Renee finally decided to apologise to Sierra before leaving for good. In Xavier's home, everyone was bristling with excitement for the impending wedding of Xavier and Sierra. "I love your wedding dress. It's so beautiful" Cathy said about Sierra's wedding dress which was delivered the previous day. Apart from the wedding dress, Sierra and the ladies don't know anything about the wedding preparations. Like Sierra wished, Xavier was handling everything and is ready to surprise her in a week when she is going to walk the aisle as his bride. "Yes, it is. I am eager to see how Xavier would react to it" Sierra said with a mischievous grin. Cathy giggled with mirth. "He would be thinking about peeling that off of you from the moment he sees you in that dress" she joked.
Janine was arrested and Augustine was cured. Xavier and the others were still reeling with shock regarding the bone chilling revelation of that night. Janine is the reason why Gawin lost his life, and so was his father. Now she was after Xavier and his unborn child over her misplaced anger. No one forced Maddy to commit suicide. It's Gawin's choice to choose who ever he wanted to marry. No one can fault him for not falling for Maddy the way she fell for him. After everything Janine did, going after Xavier's unborn child is the most horrific thing she did. "Xavier, i am extremely sorry" Renee apologised to Xavier with guilt. They were all still in the apartment where Renee and Augustine were forced to stay. Both of them gave an official statement to the cops about everything Janine did, much to Janine's anger. Janine was cursing them while she was escorted to the police vehicle. She was taken to jail and would be soon presented in court. Her sins would earn her a life sentence if not
"Who is there?" Janine called out loudly before pulling her gun out from underneath Maddy's bed. Both Renee and Augustine are panicking. They are tensed and worried about Xavier and the others. Outside the balcony, all the four men froze. "I am sorry" Nathan apologised sincerely. Xavier shook his head and patted Nathan on his shoulder. "It's ok, it's not your fault" he assured Nathan. Adam and Carlos peeked inside, and noticed that Janine has a gun and she is coming near the balcony. "She is coming, and she has a gun" Adam spoke with urgency. Everyone was tensed. "Nathan, you stay here with Adam. Me and Carlos will show ourselves. You wait for the right opportunity to take her by surprise" Xavier suggested and nodded at Carlos. Nathan held his hand to stop him. He is worried about Xavier. "I can go instead" he offered. Xavier gave him an assuring smile and patted his hand. "She will not be suspicious to see us, as we already visited their home this morning
