Although it's been a year since Samantha died Emma missed her so much and worse guilt was slowly killing her. She felt like she did Samantha wrong and she didn't know how to deal with it. Although her friends have tried to comfort her she didn't feel comforted and she hoped Samantha would just show up in front of her one day just so she could apologize.Mildred invited Emma to go out with her. They had ice cream but Emma just drank hers lazily. "Emma." Mildred called out. "Yeah what?" Emma asked. "I've been asking you a question for a while but you aren't listening." Mildred frowned."Sorry I got carried away by the ice creams flavor. It tastes really good." Emma lied. "You and I both know that's a lie, Emma we're seventeen now." Mildred said."And you think I don't know that?" Emma yelled slightly pissed. "Sorry I exploded again." Emma sighed."Emma, I know you loved Samantha so much but it's been a year." Mildred said. "You don't know how it feels to lose the one person that
Alexander was having a headache, he wondered why Emma wouldn't be a bit responsible. She had been a headache since Samantha died, and he didn't blame her. He was also having a hard time too. Alexander dropped his work and decided to take some pills. Ever since Samantha died his depression had gotten worse. Besides he still couldn't find out who killed Samantha. Every weekend he usually goes to his mother's grave to cry, Samantha's body wasn't found because everyone believed the fire consumed her and her driver. He always told his mother how he failed Samantha.After what seemed like forever Jordan told him that Mildred called Carlos that they were in the bar and soon they heard Emma was home. "Emma dear where did you go?" Annie asked. "Annie please prepare something to help her sober up." Sebastian said. "Okay sir." Annie said and Sebastian carried Emma into her room. "Thank you Annie.""Hey drink this." Sebastian said and Emma reluctantly gulped it down. "Emma, get some rest
"Dad let's not talk about women, the same person who killed Samantha might kill her again. And I'm not ready to fall for anyone yet. Besides I don't do love. I wanted to make Samantha my queen. But they took her from me." Alexander sighed. "I know, I'm sorry. Don't drink for the next few days." Noel said. "I don't know I'll try." Alexander replied. "Get ready for the party son." "Okay, dad. Thanks for coming." Alexander said. "It's been years since you told me thanks. I love you son." Noel said and Alexander nodded. ~ Two Days Later ~It was Ethan Weston's party, where he would be announcing his heir. Everyone thought Raquel would be his heir. Raquel was two years older than Sophie, but she wasn't Ethan's heir. Actually she wasn't really Sophie's sister but she was Sophie's cousin. Her parents died when she was young and Ethan took her in fully. She called Ethan dad because she felt he deserved it. They never treated her differently like she wasn't a part of the family. She
"Well Mr Moon, so nice to see you." Gael smiled at Lucian. "Likewise, Mr Governor." Lucian forced a smile."Mr Waylon." Gael nodded. "It's good to see you Sir." Ken said. "Ah, Christian, it's good to see you." "Of course." Joelle said giving him a superficial smile. "Please excuse us we would say hello to everyone else." Gael said leaving. Alexander didn't know, Gael was behind Samantha's death, he would have ripped his head apart. But report has it that Raphael did something to some evidence and Alexander was hell bent on digging the bastard's dirt out. And in fact he was so close. Alexander's father arrived and a lot of people went to say hi to him. Especially beautiful young girls who would want to Noel to put in a good word for them so they could be together with Alexander. Many people have brought marriage proposals to Noel but he dared not tell Alexander about it back then else he would explode.And now he still can't force Alexander to do anything, Alexander couldn't s
"I think I might have the answer to that." Lucian said. "Which is?" Ken asked his interest piqued. "Before Samantha... Sorry that's not the beginning when Samantha was kidnapped by Violet she behave a bit weird back then and it happened again when she lost her baby. She acted differently, like her mind was in some loop. I found out she had amnesia." Lucian said. "What does that have to do with now?" Joelle asked. "Everything, what if when her father found her she lost her memories again. This time, remembering nothing at all." Lucian said."Okay, that's your theory but we don't have real proof that, that's what happened." Ken said. "Yeah so we need to find out what really happened. Alexander you need to..." Lucian was explaining but Alexander wasn't with him. "Alexander." Ken called. "Alex." Lucian called out. "Elias?" Lucian called. "What?" Alexander yelled. "Funny you should be the one offending us and then yelling." Joelle said rolling his eyes. "Have you even been liste
Ethan dropped his pen when he saw Alexander walk in. "Alexander to what do I owe the pleasure? When my secretary told me I had a meeting with you I thought it was a mistake." Ethan said. "It isn't. Hello uncle." Alexander said taking a seat across him. "So, why are you here son?" Ethan asked."It's about Sam... I mean Sophie." Alexander replied. "What about her?" Ethan asked. "Uncle, why doesn't she recognize me?" Alexander asked. "Is that your major concern?" Ethan asked. "Yes and also... What happened too her how did she survive?" Alexander asked. "That's a long story in itself but... Sophie is alive and that's all that matters." Ethan said not willing to disclose further details. "Uncle I need you to tell me everything." Alexander pleaded. "There's nothing too tell Alexander." "Uncle please, I need to know, why didn't she recognize me what happened to her?" Alexander asked. "Do you really want to know? How it feels, to find the child you failed to protect in another lif
Alexander was so pissed when he saw the scene, what was Raphael trying to do? Using Samantha's amnesia as a leverage? He walked towards their table ignoring the meeting that was about to begin. He had to take care of the meddlesome Raphael. Was he trying to kill Samantha again? "Mr Graham." Alexander called out. "Mr McCallion, what brings you here?" Raphael asked with a frown."Oh Miss Weston I didn't know you're here." Alexander said flashing a smile at Sophie. "Are you stalking me?" Samantha asked slightly pissed. "No, I'm not. Actually I'm on a business meeting and I wanted to see how Mr Graham here was doing ain't that right Mr Graham?" Alexander asked. "Of course." Raphael said. "You two know each other?" Samantha asked. "We're not that close." Raphael immediately said."Yeah, actually we're like rivals am I right Mr Graham?" Alexander asked. "Rivals to what?" Samantha asked. "Business, am I right Mr McCallion?" Raphael asked. "You and I both know that's not true." Ale
"Hey, um..." "What is it?" Mildred asked."Can you come to a sleepover tomorrow?" Linda asked. "Me?" Mildred asked just to be sure."Yeah, I'm inviting Emma too, she's been down lately and my mom wants you two to come." Linda said. "Okay... I'll have to tell my brother about if first what did Emma say?" Mildred asked. "I was really hoping I'd get a yes from you so she could agree even though reluctantly. You and I both know you don't need your brother's permission for a sleepover." Linda said. "Okay, fine tell Emma it's a yes from me. But I still have to tell Lucian about it, before he sends a search party after me. Our parents are coming over including my grandfather." Mildred said. "Yikes that sounds intense." Linda said. "I know right? I wonder why my parents agree to let my grandfather come to the house as well. But this is my break through and I need to be a good girl so I earn more freedom." Mildred said."Okay do whatever you want I have to call Emma." Linda said. "So s
"Sophie Weston, have you come here freely and without reservation to give yourself to him in marriage?" The priest asked Samantha. "Yes." Samantha replied. "Alexander McCallion, have you come here freely and without reservation to give yourself to her in marriage?" "Yes." Alexander replied. "Will you honour him as your husband for the rest of your life?" "I will." Samantha answered. "Will you honour her as your wife, for the rest of your life?" "I will." Alexander replied. "Will you accept children lovingly from God and bring them up according to the law of Christ?" The priest asked. "Yes." The duo replied. "It's time to exchange the vows." Rita and Christopher gave Alexander, and Samantha the rings and the duo began to recite the vows."I Sophie Weston take you, Alexander McCallion to be my husband. I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad times, in sickness and in health. I will love and honour you till death do us part." Samantha said sliding the ring into his
Alexander walked into the house and Samantha smiled at him. She immediately got on her feet and went to hug him. "Hey beautiful." Alexander said pecking her cheeks. "Hey.""I came to give you this." Alexander said. "What's this?" Samantha asked taking the file from him. "Actually I would have given this to you a year back but... Well now that I remembered I just thought to give it to you." Alexander said and Samantha went through the papers."Wait... These are the documents of our house." Samantha said, "Yeah, I'm giving your foster parents home back to you. I purchased it from the bank you see. I just forgot to give it back.""Emma would be so happy, thank you." Samantha said hugging him. "You're welcome, my love. I have to go." Alexander said. "Hey, you're not leaving. Help me make a pick between this two colors." Samantha said. "Why don't you just pick anyone?" Alexander asked. "I want you to pick.""The purple one." Alexander said. "See that wasn't so bad, and that was m
"I probably would have preferred Kate to her.""This is about something else isn't it?" Lionel asked."This is about something else isn't it?" Lionel asked again. He knew his wife a lot. "I don't want to talk about it." She said. They continued the dinner in silence till it was over. "Thank you for having me Mr and Mrs Moon." Penelope said. "Of course, and thank you for coming." Lionel said. "Tell me something did you get employed at the hospital because you got yourself into my son's bed?" Stella asked. "Mom! That's enough." Lucian said. "I'm just curious.""Mom, you're being mean." Mildred said. "Why are you all taking her side?" Stella asked. "Because she did nothing wrong, I know why you don't really like her." Lucian said. "Because your ex girlfriend is better." She said. "I'd rather die single than go back to Kate. I love Penelope and nothing you do will change that." Lucian said."Penelope let's go, I guess mom has too much alcohol so she isn't thinking straight." Lu
"I'm not saying you are. I'm just saying...""That's what you're trying to imply." Sebastian frowned. "Keep your money Sebastian, I know you're trying to impress your girlfriend but don't." Mr Grayson said. "So, Emma tell me how you two got into a relationship." Mrs Grayson asked. "Oh, it's kind of embarrassing." Emma said. "How so dear?" She asked. "Sebastian was a weird guy. I don't know the first time he walked into class I have to admit I hated him. He might have good looks but his manners were poor." Emma said. "You're right about that." Mr Grayson said and Sebastian glared at him. "We bumped into each other on the streets and... He asked if I'd love to go on a walk again with him since we live close to each other.""We've became close since then after I found out he wasn't a total idiot." Emma said. "I like you Emma, you're very outspoken." Mr Grayson said. "Thank you sir."Lucian arrived home only to hear voices he was surprised to see his parents and Mildred laughing.
"Samantha a lot had happened since... I thought I lost you." Emma said. "I know, it wouldn't have been easy thinking you lost me too." Samantha said. "It wasn't, losing dad, mom, aunt, you. I felt so empty. But Sebastian, Mildred, Carlos, Scarlett and Linda kinda made it a bit bearable." Emma said. "I'm glad they were there for you, come park your things." Samantha said and Emma nodded. "Guys thank you all for coming. Thank you all for supporting me." Samantha said. "Of course Samantha, you're a part of the group." Ken said. "But more than that. You guys helped me regardless of the fact that I pretended not to know you guys." Samantha said. "Samantha you chose to trust us, we owe you our support. You've been through a lot with us, you almost got killed I wouldn't blame you if you choose not to come to us for help." Lucian said."Still thank you all I wouldn't have been able to pull that off without your help.""We're glad we could help." They said. "Oh Joelle sorry I sent a mo
When Samantha heard this she nearly lost her footing. "Well get dressed first." Raphael said."Penelope you have to get the hell out of there." Samantha said. "There's still a few percent to go." Penelope said. "Ditch it they would kill you." Samantha said. "It's done.""Get out now." Samantha said and Penelope arranged her dress before walking out of the room. Samantha knew that the father and son pair would surely see Penelope coming from the study so she decided to stage a little drama. "Play along." Samantha said. "I don't want you calling me Samantha how many times do I have to tell you and your friends that I want nothing to do with any of you?" Samantha asked. "Samantha..." Penelope called out. "Penelope what are you doing up here?" Raphael asked. "Oh she came upstairs after she saw me and you heading up here and then she's telling me some weird crap about our childhood." Samantha said. "Penelope you know you should stop talking about Samantha." Raphael said. "And yo
Alexander was preparing for the man walking towards him with a smile. He couldn't understand why people would waste their votes on someone as vile as him. Well they were going to make sure he doesn't have a career in the political race anymore. "Alexander McCallion." Gael smiled. "Mr governor." Alexander said with a straight face, well he wasn't known for smiling much so his looks weren't weird. "Long time no see.""Indeed.""I'm glad you could make it tonight." Gael said"Yeah, me too." Alexander smiled. "I hope Mr Weston and your father makes it tonight." Gael said. "Oh, I'm sure they would turn up." Alexander said. "Yeah, because I have a very nice surprise for everyone here." Gael smiled. "I'm sure you do." Alexander smiled reading more meanings to his words. "Guys I think there's a problem." Alexander said. "What is it Alexander?" Lucian asked. "Joelle I need you to text Mr Weston not to come tonight I think Gael is up to something." Alexander said. "Too late Mr West
The next day Samantha went to Karl's club. She hadn't been here since she was kicked out and Alexander forced her into his little deal and since then her life had been a drama.Well she wanted to fix everything and that includes facing her past. "Boss Miss Weston is here to see you." Johnson his manager said. "Let her in." He said immediately. He wondered why he saw the name Weston in his schedule, he knew Ethan lost his wife for more than seventeen years but he had never gotten himself drunk or gotten laid. So he wondered what the sudden visit was for. A bulky man walked into his office he knew that wasn't Ethan Weston and that definitely wasn't a woman. He heard the sound of clicking shoes and he was surprised to see who it was. "Samantha?" Karl asks surprised. "How..." He stuttered. "I see you're still not a good fan of news are you uncle?" Samantha asked."Samantha." Karl called out again as he hugged her. "Hi uncle Karl it's been almost three years." Samantha said. "Sa
Alexander was surprised to see Ken there. Well it's not like they all haven't had a common enemy that they've had to deal with. "Why are you here?" Alexander asked. "To make it hurt." Ken replied."Are you saying I can't make it hurt?" Alexander asked. "Maybe not. Let's do this together, I have a little score to settle as well." Ken said walking on ahead of Alexander. Alexander walked into the room and found Preston tied up. Alexander asked his blind folds be taken off."Ah Alexander McCallion, I wasn't expecting you'd be the one to bring me to such a place." Preston said. "Well you've gotten old, so old in fact that you're disgusting." Alexander said."I might totally deserve that." He said with a slight chuckle. "So what are you going to do? Kill me?" Preston asked."You don't think I can?" Alexander asked. "You and I both know you can't." Preston Cruz challenged."Should I kill you and make your son in law take the fall?" Alexander asked. "You live my daughter and her famil
