Silence embedded all over the place, as just the clicking of forks against the plates could be heard in the dinning room. Gulping noises rolled in, followed by an even louder clicked sound from a plate.

It was Eva, she had just carelessly dumped her fork on her plate, but she didn't seem to be bothered by what she had done to ruin the peaceful atmosphere.

“Father, who the hell is this man? And what the fuck has he been doing here for the past few days?” She couldn't take it any longer, so she didn't waste even a second to expressing her discontent, having been that her head was unable to wrap on the young man's identity.

Her curiosity was already at its peak and no matter how she tried, she couldn't figure who he was exactly.

Some days back, she snuck up on them to listen to their conversation but turns out they could be more secretive than she thought. She barely heard whatever discussion they had, more like they knew of her intention beforehand.

    “Sir Antonio is dead?” Rex repeated the same words Bella had uttered a few seconds ago.“When did this happen? I mean, what killed him?” He felt so lost as a look of terror washed up his face, summed up with the sadness lacing behind his voice.It wasn't as if he didn't hear what she had told him earlier, but the news was just too shocking for anyone in his place. Bella only sighed and lowered her head, having an answer to his questions but just a little courage to reply to him.She was afraid she might break down in his presence, then who would console who? He already looked so sad himself, so she didn't want to add to his sorrows. But, could she help it?Sir Antonio was like the father she and her brother never had, and she had never imagined to also lose him to the painful hands of death this soonest.“Diana and his doctor said he was in stage four of lung cancer.” Bella had a bitter smile on her face, and she didn't realize it when a drop of tear rolled down her left chin. Then a

    “Welcome back home, Rex.” Rex made a quick halt at the entrance with an alerting look. His eyes rolled up to the massive banner which also had, 'Welcome back home' in bold printing. It was hung in between two pillars in the living room.Quietly, he took his gaze back to the people standing in front of him with huge smiles on their faces. They were his boss's wife, the maidservants, and a few fellow guards, which Draco and Drake weren't among.“We're glad to have you back.” Lillian stepped out of the midst of others to suppress his already surprising expression.Rex turned to glance at Bella beside him, but she just shrugged off, indicating she also wasn't aware, and it was definitely the truth.Lillian didn't inform anyone about this until today, it was just an idea she came up with earlier today, and she decided to just go about it on her own with the intention of also surprising Bella.She chuckled, seeing the duo in front of her not attempting to move at all, “Come on now guys, I

    “Hello Mom, how are you doing?” “I'm fine, and you? What about everyone else at home?”“We're all fine over here, so there's nothing to worry about.”“Yeah, I'm good. I just thought to hear from you again.”“Okay, talk to you later, Mom.”“Yeah, bye.” Lillian brought down the cellphone from her ear with a sigh. Her lips were curved into a small smile as she stared at the phone screen for a moment before dumping it on the small table beside her.She left the rails of the balcony to sit on the empty seat and crossed her legs against each other. Glancing down at the table, she let out a tiring sigh.There was nothing there to chill her throat with, like a glass of juice or even water. Now, she regretted not taking one with her when she was stepping outside.“You're here.” Bella strolled freely into the balcony and made herself comfortable on the next empty seat opposite Lillian.“I actually thought you went to your room to relax.” “Why? Do I really look that tired?” Lillian glanced at

    The silence in the room became so tense, but it all disappeared when Pablo's aura changed everything. Walking into the room with his hands clasped together behind his back brought a feeling of relief to the nurse.At least even if she would be uncomfortable with his presence, it would relieve her of the drama that was about to come, obviously from Eva.“You're finally awake.” Eva turned to her father as she climbed down the bed. The look on her face was no longer hardened as earlier.“Father.” She called out lowly.“How is she?” Pablo shot the nurse a glance.The nurse, who was now standing erect with head lowered to the ground, replied, “She is better. Though, I haven't run the test on her.”“What really happened to me?” Eva was forced to interrupt the nurse as her brows etched confused.“Seeing how you are, I'm sure you are feeling better.....” Pablo blew out a small amount of air from his mouth and turned to the nurse, “Get the test done as soon as possible.”“Alright boss.”Eva g

    “Am I really doing the right thing?” Lillian questioned no one in particular as she gazed intently at the maids performing their duty in the closet.She heaved a sigh, looking all tired with a touch of depression. Watching the maids at the moment made her question her intelligence for a while, that she almost felt shitty about herself.She turned to Bella who had a bright smile on while also staring at the maids, “Do I have to do this?”“Yes, you have to. Take this as a way to have your little revenge against him.” Bella nodded effortlessly and nudged her shoulder.Revenge! That had been Bella's excuse to make her go on a trip with Don. According to Bella, this trip could create more rift between them, especially now that they had an unresolved issue between them.“What's the trip for anyway?”“It's to discuss Sir Antonio's burial rituals with the other clans in other countries and fortunately, my brother was chosen to go on behalf of the clan.” “Common, don't make that face.

    Lillian dipped a white towel into a bowl of warm water as she gently wiped the bruise on Don's cheek with it. Her gaze met his a few times, but she didn't say a word neither did he yet, she could feel he was staring deeply at her.The blow Don threw at Felix almost resulted in a serious fight. Fortunately, only one punch met Don's face, while the rest of the blows were directed towards Felix. It was not until the others came out to separate them and asked the both of them to go home.Everything happened like a dream to Lillian, though she was grateful Don appeared at the right time to save her from the harassment. She'd never expected for him to come to her rescue, looking that furious. At first, she thought his anger was targeted towards her, so her heart escalated in fear, but after realizing it wasn't to her, she felt relieved and happy. For the first time in their marriage, he didn't lash out on her when something like that happened. She didn't know how to thank him, especially

    By this time, Lillian's tears were falling freely, and her hand covered her mouth. Hearing Don's story brought countless tears to her eyes that she didn't realize they were falling.She sniffled as she wiped them off, trying to act strong. What good was it if she couldn't comfort him at this crucial moment?“My mother was the only hope I had, but she was crushed in just a few minutes, right in front of my eyes. She always comforted me with a kiss but since she died, kissing any lady brought back memories that I tried to seal years back, which was why I avoided it in all possible ways that I could.” He smiled through his tears.Lillian had never seen him like this, and it only broke her to realize she brought back some painful memories. If only she hadn't kissed him that day......... Her heart shattered as she raised his head and began to wipe the few tear drops on his face.“You didn't kill any of them. Your father deserved what he got and as for your mother, I'm sure she is happy wh

    Bella sat on the dining chair, looking like a bride whose groom had run away on their wedding day. She heaved a sigh as she glanced at the dinning table.The dining table was filled with different dishes of all kinds—something she had begun to prepare earlier, so she would meet at the agreed time. But, it seemed like they were the ones to back out of the agreed time first.She had invited the guards for a dinner since her brother and his wife weren't around, but they all ditched her for an operation. Though, none of them could help the situation.Having no one else to turn to, she decided to call Lillian. Fortunately, she picked at the third ring.“Bella! You're calling so late at night. It's bedtime here already.” Lillian groused immediately from the other end.“Oops, sorry. I just needed someone to talk to. Everything here seems boring since you left.”Lillian sighed and there was silence for a while before she spoke again, “Sorry, I just moved away to the corridor, so as not to dis

    The two siblings paced to and fro in the waiting room. Their expression held nothing but anxiety as they prayed silently in their hearts for everything to go well.Lillian's mother wasn't excluded. She was called to the hospital immediately Bella and her brother, Don, suspected that Lillian was in labor. Luckily, Mrs. Blake was around the area at that time, so she followed them to the hospital.It had been over an hour since Lillian was taken into the delivery room, and there's been no news from the doctors in charge.This continued for a few minutes until they all sighted the doctor heading their way, and they rushed to him immediately.“Congratulations. She has given birth to a bouncing baby boy.” The doctor voiced out immediately with a light smile.Their once worried look brightened instantly with smiles lingering on their lips.Finally, Bella spoke out with so much enthusiasm, “Can we see them now?”“Of course, you can see them. Come with me.”They all followed the doctor to Lill

    “Ughh, how tasteless can this be?” Lillian chimed in a loud voice that caught everyone's attention.All eyes were shot at her, with only Bella's having the courage to remain on her, unlike the maids who immediately continued what they were doing.Bella's gaze instantly raised a question when she glanced up from her phone.“These are no fun to take! It's really tasteless.” Lillian continued to whine and this time, she tossed the berry in her hand back to the rest in the tray.“Do you want us to get you another fruits?” One of the maids stood in an upright position and asked.They were all new maids. After what happened to Aurora, the maid who committed suicide and Mara, Don replaced the maids and, this time, with a much stricter rule. Lillian shook her head, thereby urging the maid to go back to her previous duty.This was mostly all what Lillian does to the food and even fruits she eats since she became pregnant. It was either disgusting or tasteless like earlier. Things even got wo

    Bella got a hint of the situation immediately her mood changed, and no words came from her. She heaved a sigh but didn't say a word either.Just then, the door opened, revealing Don. He walked a few steps into the room and paused to stare at Lillian.The family shot him a glance, then back at Lillian. They also got a hint of the situation and guessed they obviously needed some privacy together.“Now that your husband is here, we'll leave you two to talk.” Mrs. Blake said and glanced at the others, and they all nodded.They left the ward as agreed, but that didn't change the aura in the ward. Don and Lillian still maintained their silence as different thoughts ran through their heads.But there was something strange about Don's demeanor. His expression wasn't unreadable as it used to be. This time, she could bet she was able to read some emotions out from his facial expression.One of them was anger, but who was he angry at? Lillian shivered at the thought of him getting angry at the f

    A devilish smile didn't fail to crawl to his face as he attempted to pull the trigger, but all of a sudden, all the armed men in the place pointed their guns towards him, shocking everyone except Don and his personal guards.“You should also get one thing straight, no one escapes my wrath when they look for it.” Don finally voiced out with a dangerous smirk.Rex and Draco were also freed, and they joined the multitude of boys to pointing guns at Pablo. Pablo, whose face was now filled with confusion and shock, gently dropped his hand by his side.“Do you really think that you were the only one with the plans here?” Don's mind flashed back to how he replaced the men that were meant to support Pablo with his.It wasn't an easy thing to do but it was still worth it, especially since it had to with getting Pablo away from Lillian's life forever."What is happening now?" Pablo glanced around him, his mind trying not to accept that he was already outsmarted.This wasn't what he had planned.

    Don tucked his gun into his pants as he glared at the men on the ground, some were unconscious while a few were groaning in extreme pain. He didn't waste any more seconds before he left the area.Pablo was actually more prepared, considering the number of guards he had secretly placed in the building. Fortunately, Don and his personal guards were well-trained enough to take them all down. Although, they wouldn't stop trooping into the building, more like they already knew of the intruders.As Don ran up the stairs, he was more vigilant than ever. The occurrence from earlier should never happen again, especially since he had only a limited time.Yes! He was already informed by Sir. Jeffrey about the short time they had to rescue Lillian. He would rather not waste a second out of it even though, three minutes had passed already.He halted when he got to a hallway leading to different rooms. Opening one of the rooms, he concluded he wouldn't be able to make it if he searched through them

    Bella stood, glaring at the man in front of her, that if not for just a good reason, she would have strangled him to death right there.After so many days of searching and trying to find him, he was finally found. But then, it was so unfortunate that nothing could be done to him at the moment.“I think you can stop glaring now, else your eyes might pop out any moment.” Mark finally said, not able to endure the harsh gazes he was receiving from Bella.He was roughly tied in a piece on the cold floor, that it was so difficult to even move a body part. Though, he was already in that state before Bella and her brother arrived.“I don't mind, as long as you go down first. And don't think you're doing us a favor here because you're one of the reasons all this is happening.” The hostile glare didn't leave Bella's face as she spat out her anger.“That stupid brother of yours had better f**king bring Lillian back.” Mark retorted with so much loathe behind his voice.Even though Bella's anger k

    “Boss, as we speak, they're after me and......” Mara glanced at the men running after her and she mumbled, “F*ck!”They were so close to her that in a few seconds they could catch up with her. F*ck herself for making the injuries on her look so real. Now, she couldn't even run properly with all the injuries she inflicted on herself.The men, who happened to be Don's guards, split into two groups as one group out took Mara and blocked her from running further.Figuring there was no other way out as the guards already circled her with their guns pointing directly at her, Mara halted and without a second warning, threw her phone into the nearby river.All the guards were shocked, realizing what she just did, but none of them bulged to retrieve the phone. As long as they caught Mara first, they're sure to get all the information they wanted, including the reason she shot Eva.“Hello? Mara!” The line had already disconnected, but Pablo didn't realize it until there was no more sound from th

    “I want to get rid of that so-called wife of his, I don't think I can stand her even though we're just knowing each other. That b**ch is beginning to step on my toes.” “She has a name.”“Do I look like I f**king care? Whatever name she goes by, whether Lillian Blake or Killian Black, I just want one thing, and that is to get rid of her while she is still new.”“So?”“So, I want you to do something, and it's slightly simple, though dangerous.”“Danger is literally my other name, but first, what do I get in return?”“Whatever you ask for. Hold on…. What are you staring at? You want my body?”“You got it, babe.”“Just do what I want, and you'll have all you ask for.” The recording paused and that was Eva lifted her head, her mouth, and eyes wide open in shock. She glanced at the person whom she would rather die than have to listen to the recording at the moment and felt her life was over.Listening to the conversation she had with Klaus some months back made her whole world crumble.

    “We searched the CCTV footage for the supposed area and, as expected, it's been altered. It only showed the part where the Lady and maid stepped out to check the unconscious guards in another car, the rest of what took place wasn't found.” “It was also known that the security guards there were all unconscious at the said time, which means….”“Which means that this person really knows what he is doing. But who could he be? Or could it be......” Bella cut Draco short as her mind drifted to Mark, but strangely, she doubted if he had such authority or resources.“I doubt if he was. Even if he was behind it, I believe he had back up, someone with a similar goal compared to his.” Don also thought of Mark, but being in this game for long, he understood that not just anyone had the power to pull such strings.Nobody said anything for a while, and this gave Draco the opportunity to speak again.“We've sent messages across to all of our connections in the country, but there hasn't been news ye
