CHAPTER 163

Serene

It was a breezy morning, and I simply had to get up early to satisfy my children's demands. I am not sure why I am so fascinated with yogurt; I thought desires were the same throughout the pregnancies like when I was carrying Miguel, ice cream could go a day without me eating it, but now it is only yogurt. “Good morning, Serene. I did not expect you to wake up this early," Grace remarked as she came into the kitchen.

"Hey, I just came for a drink of water and did not expect you would be up," I said.

"Come on, I have a grandchild, a wonderful daughter-in-law, and a foolish son to prepare breakfast for," she remarked, and we both smiled.

"You are such a darling; I hope you will stay longer," I murmured as Aunt Mina would come to collect her.

"I will if Miguel says so; he is the prettiest after all," she said, opening the fridge to retrieve some eggs.

“May I be of help?" I asked as I wanted to help her to make breakfast.

"Sure you may, madam; I can not wait for those

    CHAPTER 164Nelly Serene anxiousness made Max and Sandra compliment me so much. Had Diego not been so near, I would have dropped over to say hello. Max got a call from Diego while we were still applauding. “What happened?" Sandra and I asked as we both stood up noticing the change in his expression.“It's Diego, he is so mad that we gave his fiancee a panic," Max responded."To hell with that fiancée thing; we are simply doing what we need to,” Sandra said, and I nodded in agreement."He stated that he would not give me the contract if I do it again," Max remarked, with anxiety in his voice.I told him to relax and enjoy the moment as we would undoubtedly touch the wrong buttons if Diego dared. Afterward, we all sat down and kept on drinking until I got a call from an unidentified number. I pretended not to see the call until I saw a text that arrived later because I was not sure if I should answer it or just ignore it as it may be David attempting to contact me. "It's Sofia White p

    CHAPTER 165Diego “It's good you made a great choice son," Max said, smiling at me.“You don't deserve to call me that just go," I responded.“Take it easy you know I—" "George, we need to leave,” I said to Max after putting on my spectacles. We walked away as Max watched us in disbelief.I have given him shares in the Boston-based firm, but if he attempts to approach Serene or Miguel in any way, I will take everything away from him. Him discovering that Serene's pregnant and attempting to use that information to undermine me by revealing the truth is my worst worry. I wish I could tell Serene right now, but right now it is just not feasible. I am not sure how she will react to the news or if she'll still give me the same look. Nothing hits worse than your buried past emerging.How am I going to bear this?I was still deep in contemplation when George inquired. “Are we going to see Andrew?" “Yes, I think we're a little late but he's going to like the offer," I reacted."It is not l

    CHAPTER 166Serene I was busy setting the table when one of the maids brought the flowers into the kitchen. I didn't know what to say as Diego was the only person capable of that. I loved the surprise so I waited for Diego to come so I thanked him but he was more surprised than me. “Wait.. you are not the one that sent me this?" I asked, reacting to his shocked expression.“I didn't, but it could be one of your fans,” he said, but fear got the best of me as it was usual for them to send something without notifying me.“Maybe," I said, asking the maids to pack the roses away.I was still wondering about who the sender may be when Diego walked upstairs to change as I was putting his lunch on the tray behind him. When I entered the bedroom, I noticed Diego standing near the table, appearing uncomfortable. "Honey, is everyone OK?" I said, glancing up as I laid the tray."Yes, I am all right, just a bit fatigued," he said, attempting to deceive, but I saw through him."Really? Because my

    CHAPTER 167Serene Diego turned around the moment I knocked the vase over. Something significant was going on, and I could see the terror in his eyes. He remarked, "Baby, you are done already?" without even realizing how long I had been standing there.“Yes, I was here but —" “Did you hear what I said?" He cut me off.“Yes I…I listened to what you had to say, and I would like to hear it again with an explanation, Mr. Myers," I said."Well, George had a huge crush on Charlotte and was upset that Andrew had taken her away. He has been planning to confront Andrew, but I think that is a bad idea because that could get him in trouble with Charlotte, who will not let him off the hook easily," he said, and I could not believe what I had previously believed had been verified. I knew George had something for Charlotte."Maybe you are right, Charlotte will not spare him if he does something that will annoy Andrew. I will attempt to talk to him," I proposed."No, I'll do it instead. I mean, I

    CHAPTER 168Serene It's almost noon and Miguel's body reacted positively to the medicine. He asked me to make him some pasta which made me rush my way to the kitchen. I could tell that the maids wanted me to sit but I always prefer making my fiancé and son the dishes. I was still cooking when a message came onto my phone; I at first ignored it, thinking it was just emails from my clients, but later got a shock. I walked into Miguel's room with a tray of food and placed it on the table before taking a seat to feed him. “Mommy, where's Daddy?" Miguel asked."He is at the office. Do you want me to give him a call?" I said promptly, grinning.“No, I just wanted to tell him to go to work. I'll be OK. I thought you said I'm strong right?" he asked."Of course, baby, you are my Roman Reigns," I informed him, smiling confidently.After eating, Miguel went to the toilet, and I quickly got my phone to see what was in my emails when I could not believe what the folks in that video were saying.

    CHAPTER 169Diego The worst aspect could be Serene learning the truth about what happened to her twin sister, but time is running out and she is very near to learning that I got Max, Nelly, and Sandra out of jail. After saying hello to Charlotte, I left and headed to a casino to see George, who could have some ideas. "I get you, but the babies will suffer if you tell her the truth. What happens if she does not respond coolly?" he asked."That is exactly what I am thinking; I am afraid I could lose her again. Perhaps I should quickly get married," I proposed." Yes, but you are aware of the pain of being kept in the dark. Serene is severe and dangerous. Believe me, she will not spare you if you do anything weird with her sentiments," George cautioned."When will you get serious and quiet sounding so negative?" I murmured to George, who appeared to be scaring me already."Maybe you could find a permanent method to keep Max quiet or talk to Grace so she may have something more valuable

    CHAPTER 170Diego I continued, "Babe, this is not what you think I can explain," but Serene only sent me a fierce glance before turning to face Sofia."It appears that you enjoy stirring up problems, don't you?" I was somewhat relieved that someone finally received what she deserved when she said that, and before she could reply, two smacks fell on her face.“How dare you?" I stopped Sofia's attempt to smack Serene by holding her hand.“Don't even think about it," I warned.I hoped she had remained silent, but she added, "Let go of me, just watch what will happen when Max finds out about this.""What did you just say?" Serene asked, walking closer to Sofia."Max is coming for the two of you, so your fiancé will regret having you smack me," Sofia remarked.Damn, couldn't she just keep quiet? I don't even know how I'm going to explain things to Serene."Sweetie Max is busy having the best experience in jail. I would not mind taking you there once you pass by the mental institution, okay

    CHAPTER 171Serene When George called to inform me about Sofia, I was still eating dinner together with Miguel and Charlotte. Sofia appeared to have forgotten that I was the reason she eventually gained some attention and a few gigs that aided her financially, so I simply had to go get her. Not to mention the money I paid her when she lied to me about being pregnant with Diego. Instead of attempting to outbid me for Diego, she should just be appreciative and back off. When I arrived at the casino, the bartender informed me that Sofia and Diego were in some room. I was first full of hostility, but as we approached the door, I heard Diego pleading with her to stop, but she persisted, so I entered.Diego was overcome with terror, but it did not matter since I had to deliver Sofia a nuclear slap, and I succeeded. The fact that she wanted to smack me back was unbelievable to me. I mean, who does that? She would require critical treatment if one of my guards touched her, judging by the way

My fingers ran over the phrases I would be holding back.Serene If you are reading this, it means trouble has arrived at your doorstep, and I am sorry I can not do anything about it from behind these cells.

    CHAPTER 221Serene Kyrell caught me on time, and I am glad since I would be in the hospital right now if it had not been for him. After breakfast, we went to my study as usual, but something looked strange. He was not acting like himself; it was as if something had gone wrong. Knowing him, I knew he would not tell me unless I continued to probe."You should start talking already, Kyrell Harrison," I murmured, not bothering to look at him."What would you want to hear?" He answered with his gaze fixed on whatever he was now reading."I do not know. I think you are not being rational with me, and it is written all over you, Kyrell. At least I am not blind. What is going on?""Seriously, now, Serene? I think you're just overthinking. I am all right, just trying to focus," he said, but it was not convincing enough."Okay, I guess I will have to tell you that I did not buy it, so start talking and stop playing," I said, sitting up straight and facing him."Serene, my heart is aching and I

I know how it feels, sweetie. I am sure Diablo found out and fled before we even arrived," Neina commented."How is this possible if we are the only ones who know everything?""That is a simple question to answer," Kyrell said, and I quickly caught up on his response."Wait, are you telling me that we have an inside source among us?""Yes, the possibility is high since there was no way the building could have been located unoccupied when the majority of the broken phones used to call us were discovered inside," Kyrell added."Wow, it is much more terrifying, but who could that be? I mean, we do not even let a maid hear about this type of thing?""I am not sure, but we will find out. For now, you should get some rest and prepare to catch that traitor tomorrow," Kyrell remarked as he was about

I am only grateful security did not arrive and chase us out like dogs since the humiliation would have been horrible. I took a seat on the sofa sinking deep into my thoughts, since I still had no notion who the black-suited man's master was.But Serene's fooling with him provided us the opportunity to receive free money simply for agreeing to work with him. I just pray nothing goes wrong, since this may be a once-in-a-lifetime chance.Sandra yelled out my name, "Nelly Mendoza!" as she took a seat with the cushion on her legs.“What? I do not recall inviting you to join me," I said, giving her a disdainful look."I know, and if it is the $100,000 that is bothering you, swallow your pride and maintain your attitude toward Sofia because I am not on your level, OK.""What?

If he turns on us, I will be destroyed, and the lives of so many others will be jeopardized.“Hey, are you OK?" Grace inquired, coming into my office with a glass of juice."Yes, I am all right, and thanks for the juice. I've not had this in a while." “Serene, you need to get serious. I'm not letting you treat my girls like that."“OK, madam, your wish is my command." "I will see you at supper," Grace remarked before walking away.I took another sip from my glass and continued browsing through my papers until Kyrell intervened. "What in the name of madness is wrong with you?" I inquired as he entered my office, dripping wet.“I…I am sorry that I could not wait, Serene," he said, holding up a file."What's that? I mean wait, is that my family's black file?" I inquired, recognizing it since I assumed it had been burned in th

    CHAPTER 217Nelly Sofia has been messaging Kyrell for over a week now, but he continues to blue-tick her messages. I knew asking her to abandon him would be a poor idea, so I considered meeting with George to see if he might help us get to Kyrell, but he appeared to despise Kyrell to the core, and I am still not sure why.I assumed George was a placid person, but he was not easily deceived. "I do not have time for your proposition, Nelly, and we are not meant to be seen together.". Please go before you make the incorrect impression.”What the heck? He's asking me to leave."George, calm down. I am not here to make trouble. My friend genuinely likes Kyrell, but he—"“Nelly, I know you are a crafty lady, but if your buddy understands what is best for her, tell her to stay away from Kyrell, OK," George replied, putting on his glasses and heading to his Jeep.I was ready to walk away, cursing the fact that I had not received anything from him when someone yelled my name. "Yes, do I know

I had not seen him in months, since the day I came for closure."You know what, I believe coming here was a bad idea; let us go back," I said to Neina, who helped me up and walked out of the visiting room.I felt I was ready to meet Diego and maybe talk to him, but that feeling vanished as soon as my sister's memory entered my thoughts. "It is okay, Serene; do not be so harsh on yourself; you will be OK," she comforted me as we got into the car."Madam, do you want me to drive home or continue with the schedule?" the chauffeur asked."Continue with the schedule; I need to check in on the progress of my Empire," I said.The automobile started, and I hurriedly covered my eyes with dark glasses so that no one would think I was sobbing. We got to the Empire and Rina was so excited to see us. She handed me the flowers and presents they had p

The door opened, and Miguel stepped in, his eyes wide open.“Woah, mommy, is all this for me?" he asked, running to the lion toy I got him."This is beautiful, it looks just like Mufusa,” he said, rubbing it's hair."I am pleased you like it; will you forgive Mama now?" I asked when he nodded before I hugged him."You did not have your breakfast today; let me go get it for you," he said, racing out, and I instantly had to warn, "Be careful, dear."“Did you just bribe my nephew?" Charlotte asked as she walked in."No, Ms. Charlotte Brights, I do not engage in unethical behavior," I said, and she just gave me a serious look, as I had not addressed her in that manner in a long time."Ms. Brights, please come to my office," the security operator called into the microphone, and I raced out.I went into his office and watched a live video of the drone ente

"Ms. Brights, the security operator, would want to show you something," a maid told me before I approached him.I came into the room without thinking about what may be going on and discovered that he was zooming in on what I recognized as a drone. “Wait, is that a drone?" I inquired, realizing the background was that of my mansion."Yes, ma'am, I believe someone is watching us; I have seen this thing in roughly 5 images," he remarked, showing them to me."That is horrible; do you have any clue which way it is heading?" I asked as we couldn't see the angle properly. “I think it's from the east." "I will contact an expert to come check on everything, so please keep your eyes on that screen," I added before walking away.Diablo has now begun employing drones on my residence, indicating the level of dan
