The phone beeped waking Nina and Cody up. Cody immediately apologized and answered the call. “Hello… what?” He said and sat up with a start. “Mmm really… hmm… I’ll get there soon” he hanged up and Nina looked at him worriedly.“What’s wrong?” she asked.“There’s trouble at the lab I need to go and resolve it, will you like to come along?” Cody asked knowing very well Nina would say no. Throughout his 4 year stay at Golden Springs Nina had visited only once and that was it. She hated long car trips and also hated flying she only did it when it was necessary.“When will you be back?” She enquired.“I should be back before 10:00pm” Cody answered Nina nodded and laid back down on the bed. “We’ll wait for you then” she said and drifted back to sleep. There was no emergency he was just finding a way to leave Witting without Nina making a fuss about it and it worked.Seth met Cody at the gate and waited patiently for him to get in. Immediately Cody got in the car the smile on his face fad
When Cody got back to his car he wept like a baby.“I’m sorry Myra! I shouldn’t have done this to you” he wept and wept and then drove to pick Seth up with very blurred vision. When he got to the house he was about to evacuate, he broke down and cried again. Seth stood there watching him helplessly, he was crying so hard he could barely catch his breath.“It hurts so bad Seth, it hurts more than Annalise” he wept. “It’s for the best sir, she’ll heal and you’ll heal too” Seth consoled him.“What is she going to do, she’s so fragile” he said in tears.“She’ll be fine, she’ll meet a nice guy who’s available and then she won’t be hurt anymore” Seth said then regretted it instantly because the mention of an eligible bachelor in Myra’s life seemed bring Cody a new wave of sorrow. “It’s getting late sir we need to leave” Seth said getting frustrated with Cody’s behavior. Seth helped Cody into the car and sped off.“Mr. Whyte look at the bright side of everything, now you’ll be able to beg
Cody woke up from his slumber and slowly dragged himself the bathroom. His phone rang and he jerked to reality when he realized it was Mr. Story calling.“Hello, Mr. Story good morning”“Cody, I spoke to Dylan about what you told me and gave him a week to send Rosa over to you, but he hasn’t gotten back to me, he even tended in his resignation letter, but don’t worry I won’t let him resign” Mr. Story narrated.Cody scoffed, Dylan was such a silly boy why would he resign from his dream job for a woman he barely knew anything about. “Can you please arrange a meeting with him? He won’t answer my calls, if I have to buy a ticket and catch a flight to meet him I will, this is very important to me” Cody requested.“Meet me this afternoon 12:00pm prompt at Rupert’s bar” Mr. Story instructed him.“Sure noted” Cody readily agreed. He hanged up freshened up and joined his family for breakfast. For a minute he forgot about his aching heart. Dylan brushed Rosa’s hair as she sat in front of the
It was getting dark and Dylan was still not back, Rosa decided to prepare dinner in case he came back home hungry. While cooking she felt the very urgent need to pee so she went to the washroom and after she was done with her business. She stood behind the tap washing her hands when she heard a crackling sound at the window she quickly turned around and saw the window burst open. Cody jumped in through the space. He was dressed in black. He smiled and approached Rosa slowly, she screamed so loudly, Cody pounced on her and covered her mouth.“Ssshhhh, I’m not here to harm you, I just need you to cooperate with me” he whispered in her ear.Tears trickled down her cheeks, these entire 4 years had been stressful for her. What on earth had she done to make these people come after her like this? Immediately there was a spark in her mind. She saw herself in her bedroom and a man jump through the window. It was the bodyguard, Eileen’s bodyguard. Everything went blank after that. She panicked
Cara went closer to Rosa and lay her on the couch gently.“Now tell me, why did you try to paralyze the patient?” She asked softly.“He used me and dumped me, he made a lot of promises he failed to keep I felt stupid” Rosa answered.“So you caused the accident?” Cara asked.“No… I heard he was in an accident, and took the chance…” Rosa answered.Cara started to wonder why Cody was after Rosa, she was clearly not involved in the accident. She still proceeded with the interrogation anyway. “Did you disguise yourself as Francia Medina?” Cara asked.“Silver stars, the singer, she made me do it.. I didn’t have any means of survival after losing my job, she told me to do it, she told me poison Nina and make her lose the babies… I told her Nina could die she said it was okay with her… but I didn’t want Nina to die that’s why I stopped giving her the doses… I didn’t want her to die” Cara’s eyes dropped wide open in shock Cody was right all along this woman did have something to do with it.
“So you’re telling me that she never mentioned anything about the accident to you” Cody yelled at Rosa who was in tears. She shook her head slowly.“The closest thing I know about the accident is her bodyguard, I was on duty at the emergency ward when he was brought in, but he ran away, later he came to see me with another guy who looked like him they asked me to say it was the other guy in case I was called to confirm the patient I took care of” Rosa answered.“It was really her bodyguard that came to you?” Cody asked.“Yes, I don’t know why they asked for such a favor but I just agreed” Rosa responded.Cody got up from the couch and gave Rosa a stern look. “I’m still gathering information for my lawsuit and you’re still pregnant, so I’ll take my time and build up my case, you dare not escape from my clutches else I’ll drag Dylan into this and mess him up. You committed a crime and you’ll pay for it” Rosa gulped and nodded. Cody gestured her to follow him and she slowly followed hi
Cody and Nina were playing with the children in the backyard when a servant came to inform him that he had a visitor.“Usher them to the living room” Cody instructed, since he was going back inside he might as well receive his visitors there. “Noted” the servant responded and left.“We should go back inside then before they catch a cold” Nina suggested. She didn’t suggest it only because it was getting colder but because she was eager to see whoever would come visit on a cold day as this.The family went inside using the back door, when they neared the living room Cody could see the Eileen and Cecil seated on the couch. Comfortably waiting for him. He stopped in his tracks and chuckled, was this Eileen’s retaliation to the law suit.“Nina why don’t you take the children to their rooms so they change” Cody said to Nina.“Can’t I at least say hi to your visitor, that’s rude if I don’t come say hi too” Nina protested and took the lead to the living room with Cody lagging behind her wit
Dylan served Rosa some breakfast and sat beside her. “Isn’t there anything you want to tell me?” He asked. Rosa was silent, after recovering her memories she felt unworthy of Dylan’s love, she was scared of what Dylan would do if he learned of the things she had done. Dylan also sat there hoping she hadn’t remembered a long lost love or something that was going to put a strain on their relationship.“Dylan did you mean it when you said you’d be bad for me?” She asked.“This is the 4th time you’re asking this question, what’s going on Rosa?” “I’ve done some real bad stuff I’m undeserving of the love that you give me” Rosa said.“Like what dating Cody when you knew he was married?”“I didn’t just date him, I wanted to get pregnant for him, I wanted a whole fortune from him I was driven by my own evil intentions for money that didn’t belong to me” Rosa said sadly.“Rosa can I ask you a question?” Rosa nodded so he went ahead “are you still that person you were some years ago?” She sh
