Hernandez Group's dinner. Mason gathered his juniors together and stared at them for a few seconds before clearing his throat. "Listen well, this is the last day of Hernandez Group's inauguration ceremony. Nothing, I repeat, nothing must go wrong. This is a dinner involving all of Hernandez Group's major shareholders and stakeholders. Do a good job by behaving yourself! Josie, Isabella, Frederick, you're working with Ruby's team. Make sure there are no empty champagne glasses. Always check the guests and refill their glasses.""Yes, senior!" The three of them echoed. "The rest of you are joining Chris' team. They're in charge of the desserts. Make sure you do as you're told.""Yes, senior!""That will be all for now." He told them and was about leaving when he suddenly turned back. "And if I hear that anyone is missing again this time around. . ." He paused as he looked at them one by one. "I won't let it slide! I really won't!" He added and walked away. Isabella sighed. "It's a re

Theodore Medicals.Richard was going through his patient's files when his door opened and Phoebe entered. Seeing that it was her, he sighed and continued with what he was doing. "How many times do I have to tell you that the fact that you're my direct junior doesn't mean you can barge into my office the way you like?""I didn't barge." She defended as she took a seat. "I knocked.""But I didn't hear you knocking.""Even a ghost wouldn't." She laughed. "Senior, I need your help." She added, suddenly becoming serious. "What is it?""What is your diagnosis of a man whose face twitches often and he sometimes walk with one side of his body?""Does it happen frequently?""Yes. I've noticed it like three times now.""How old is he?""Early sixties.""Does the twitching of his face affect just one side?""Yes. Just one side. Sometimes when he talks, he stops and takes a long pause before continuing."Richard paused and looked at her closely nodding his head. "What do you diagnose?"Phoebe si

"I'm home!" Josie removed her shoes and arranged them beside the other shoes at the entrance of the house before stepping in. "Sister!" Drake Luth called happily as he rushed to meet her. She paused immediately she saw him. "Hey, Drake, what are you still doing here?!" She walked in and dropped her bag on the chair. "Mum! Mum!"Her mother came out with a tray. "You're here?""Mum, how many times do I have to tell you not to allow Drake stay here?""There's nothing wrong with that. He's still a small boy.""He's a small boy, but it's getting too frequent. Don't they get worried at his house? I mean how can they not be worried when their seven years old son is missing.""He's not missing. He's here.""Seriously, I don't understand his parent. Hey, Drake!!""Yes, sister.""What do you tell them at home when you leave?""Nothing. They don't know I leave the house.""See, see!" Josie exclaimed turning to her mother. "See? they don't know he sneaks out of the house. Drake, you'll get them

Garden."Where are we?" Josie asked looking round. "A garden." He replied as he sat on a grass. "A garden? Ah! It's so dark and I can't really see what it looks like. I guess I should come around some other time during the day to get a better look at it." She said as she sat beside him. "But, what are we doing at a garden so late at night?""Just because." He replied looking up at the sky. Josie sighed and turned to face him. "Do you need someone to talk to?" She asked and he turned to face her. "Tell me anything you want to say. I promise to listen and I won't complain."Asher was quiet for a few seconds while fixing a stern gaze at her. "What's wrong? You don't have anything to say? But you look like you have tons of things going in your head. Are you really not going to say anything?" She asked and still got no reply from him. "Ah, what is this? If you keep on staring at me like that, I might have to run away.""Should we play a game?" He finally talked. "A game? What kind of

"She died," he replied to her.His reply hit Josie like a sharp pin in her chest. She was expecting something like 'she left' or 'I never got to see her again' or 'she travelled and forgot about me' or anything related to that, but she was totally not expecting something like death. "I'm. . . I'm sorry.""It's not your fault, so why are you apologizing?""I never thought it could be something like that. I'm sorry for asking. It must have been hard for you to tell me that.""No. It wasn't. I was unable to forgive myself when she died. Do you want to know why?""Why?""Because I could not fulfill my mother's dying wish. She asked me to protect her, but I couldn't. That time was the worst time for me and I regret every thing that happened." Closing his eyes repeatedly, he fought back the tears that formed in his eyes. "Enough about Annette" He told her, trying to smile. "Was there a time when you were young that you felt bad? Probably because of something that happened?""Actually, I. .

Hernandez's House. Rita sat at the edge of her bed as she held her phone in anticipation. She stood up and paced round the room. Just then, a call came in. "What happened?" She talked quickly. "Why didn't you contact me since morning?""Don't get your hopes too high." came the caller's voice. "What are you saying?" She asked. "I'm not sure, but I think this search is leading me somewhere." He replied. "What do you mean?""Like I said, I'm not sure, but I'm trying to put the pieces of what I'm finding out together. But still, don't get your hopes too high. It might not be what you expect.""Just make it snappy already. I don't want mother to think I'm taking it slowly. You know how long she had to wait. It mustn't go beyond this year.""Rita." He called softly. "What is it?""Are you fine? Are you comfortable there?""Donald Ryan." She called. "I'm okay. I told you to worry less about me and focus more on what you were asked to do. If you keep on worrying about me like that you wo

Roosevelt Kitchen.After the morning course, the whole chef in section B took a break and Isabella rushed to meet Josie. "Josie! Josie!" She called her as she approached her. "What is it again?" Josie asked as she washed her hands. "Again? Hey, what is wrong with you? You've been disrespecting me recently! What exactly is wrong with you? Have you gotten yourself a new wife?""What are you saying?" Josie asked as she grabbed a napkin to clean her hand. "Take a break and stop being a nuisance."Hey, Josie, it's really true! You've dumped me! You've dumped me, Josie Maran. How could you do this to me? Uhn? How could you? I trusted you!" Isabella ranted as she faked tears from her face. "Get lost, Isabella!" Josie shouted, smiling. "No way! I won't accept this!" Isabella told her as she picked up a knife. "Who is it? Who is the person that wants to salvage our relationship? Who?""Hey, Isabella!" Josie called. "Stop it.""No way! Tell me who it is. Noah?" She paused as Noah, Heidi and

Not quite long after they left Nest bridge, Jared escorted Michelle home. The walk home was silent, even though they both had a lot to say to each other. Not able to hold it in any longer, Michelle broke the silence when they got to her place."Team leader." She called. Uhn.""Thanks a lot for today. It felt like a date.""Date?" Jared asked surprised. "Uhn.""That wasn't a date. We just took a break from work. If you want to go on a date, we should go on a proper date, not this kind.""Ah, but it was nice all the same. Thanks a lot." She told him smiling. Jared smiled too as he stared at her. "You too, thanks for your time. So, is this where you live?""Uhn." She nodded. "Just over there." She pointed and just then she saw her father. The smile on her face faded away as she saw him come down from a luxury car. She became confused as to who her father was with and just then, she caught a glimpse of the person as the car drove away."Did something happen?" Jared asked, noticing her

Isabella's rooftop house. "I haven't still figured out why you had to follow me here." Isabella pointed out as she poured hot water into the coffee she was making. "I told you already." Josie replied. "I just wanted to make sure you don't go out drinking on your own." She added."And I told you I can't. My sister is with me, remember.""Ah, that's right! I've forgotten Sister Barbara is with you.""It's obvious that you've forgotten." Isabella teased her as she brought the coffee to her. "There you go.""Thank you!" "When last did you visit me like this?" Isabella asked as she sat beside her. "Hasn't it been long? Let's see, I think it was before Asher joined us.""How about you, when last did you come to visit me?""You always go home to see your mother whenever I come by.""That's a lie.""I'm really serious. Fine then, I'll come over tomorrow.""No!" Josie replied quickly spilling hot coffee on herself. "Ouch!"Isabella rushed to get her a napkin. "Ah, what is wrong with you?! I

Del mar Street.Jared, Michelle, Tessa and Eric were involved in a hot chase of a criminal. Jared was in the car with Michelle and they conversed with Eric and Tessa who were also in another car."Have you seen him?!" Eric asked Jared."Uhn!" Jared replied. "I'm on his trail!""Keep going, we'll meet you at the next intersection!"The criminal kept on running as Jared chased him with the car. Soon, the criminal took a turning where cars couldn't pass. "There, there, there!" Michelle exclaimed. "He took that route."Jared parked the car quickly and they both came down quickly. "Squad leader, I know this area very well. If you follow him, I can take another route to intersect him." Michelle suggested. "You. . . Will you be fine on your own?""Don't worry about me. Let's worry about catching the criminal first. We don't have much time. I'll meet you!" She told him and took off. "Be careful!" He shouted after her before taking the route the criminal took. Michelle kept on running whi
