After Nancy and Benson left, Yaacob suddenly felt empty, especially when he read Celica's paternity test in his hand.

'If this is real, then it really proves Celica has nothing to do with me,' thought Yaacob. After all, Nancy would not dare to show it to him if it was fake. He would only have to take it to the hospital for verification to expose her lie.

'Or maybe she's bluffing? I did trick her last night, so now she's trying to return the favor? Well, well. She's certainly become more cunning in the three years we've been separated. Even I'm having a hard time seeing through her.'

Yaacob had forgotten that he was the one who taught Nancy all the tricks.

The paternity test was done abroad, so in order to save time, Yaacob faxed it to Randall.

Half an hour later, Randall called him to give him an update.

"So is it real?" asked Yaacob the moment he picked up the phone.

"It's already been verified. They did the paternity test in a professional organization, so the chances of it be

    When midnight came, Nancy received a call from the hospital telling her that Benson had been sent to the emergency department.She immediately rushed over. The doctors were still trying to save his life when she got to the hospital. Apparently, Benson was experiencing gastrointestinal bleeding due to overconsumption of alcohol.Yaacob was also there at the hospital. He was the one who brought Benson there.Nancy immediately knew what happened when she saw Yaacob. Even though Benson could not hold his alcohol, nothing like this had ever happened in all the three years he had been running the company.Thus, the only logical explanation was that Yaacob deliberately forced Benson to overdrink."Yaacob Getson! Come at me if you have a bone to pick! Don't drag other innocent people in! I'm going to make you pay if anything happens to Benson!" she shouted at him."I'm sorry. I didn't mean to cause him any harm," said Yaacob sincerely.He really did not expect Benson to be such a lousy

    Judging from Yaacob's tone, he did not know what happened.Nancy realized something was wrong and hung up immediately.She asked Kandy, "It's not Yaacob who took Celica. Why did you say Yaacob has something to do with Celica's disappearance?"Nancy knew Yaacob very well. She knew that he would have admitted it if he had been responsible.For example, when he was giving her a hard time previously, he admitted he was the culprit immediately.Therefore, he would not have taken Celica and denied it.Kandy looked a little guilty and said, "Madam, I am not really sure what happened. I thought you were tired from looking after Mr. Young all night. So I took Celica out with me for breakfast so she wouldn't disturb you. As I was waiting in line for coffee, she just… disappeared! I vaguely recall seeing a tall figure that reminded me of Mr. Getson. But I'm not too sure…""Yaacob moves about in his posh sports car and wears only branded expensive suits. If he were to show up at the coffee

    The transportation hub of Rhea City was put at a standstill. The Rhea City Central Bus Terminal had passengers and coaches going nowhere.Many passengers protested and complained as they did not understand why the coaches and buses were suspended from service that day.In fact, not only was the Central Bus Terminal disrupted, but the same was happening at the airport and train station. That created a huge problem for those wanting to leave town urgently.Therefore, even more passengers were making a kerfuffle at the airport and train station than at the bus terminal.Things were heating up in the terminal. After getting nowhere with their complaints, the passengers became increasingly irritable and impatient.A few passengers with short tempers were ready to take it out on the conductors as they demanded an explanation."Why aren't we allowed to leave the city? I am going to be late for a business meeting. Who will be responsible for my losses if I'm not there in time to sign the

    Nancy was ready to put down her phone after getting a reply from Yaacob.However, he sent another message.[You're still up?]Nancy felt there was no reason for her to reply because if she were to engage in small talk with him, it would inevitably draw them closer.It was late at night, and she was a married woman. She decided to put up a wall between them by only talking about formal matters.She replied, [I'm sorry that today's incident has delayed your return to Athenapolis.]Yaacob was a very clever man. He knew she was hinting at him to leave Rhea City as soon as possible.[I've already asked my assistant to get another flight ticket and I'll be leaving first thing in the morning,] replied Yaacob.[I don't have a hotel room, so I'll be sticking around tonight,] added Yaacob.Was he planning to sleep in his car?When Nancy and Yaacob went to look for Celica, she remembered hearing him cough now and then.Could it be that he did not find a place to stay last night, too?

    By the time Nancy cleared the table after breakfast, Celica was gone.At first, Nancy thought she might have gone to play in the garden, but she could not find her. Then, she realized Kandy had forgotten to lock the door when she left to go grocery shopping this morning.Nancy felt that she needed to consider letting go of the housekeeper for being careless all the time.Moreover, she discovered Yaacob's car was no longer parked outside her mansion.He must have gone to the airport. Could it be that he took Celica with him?Nancy was about to remind herself to stop suspecting Yaacob. After all, he did put in a lot of effort to help rescue Celica yesterday.However, she received a text message from Yaacob shortly after. He told Nancy that he had brought Celica to visit Athenapolis.Nancy quickly called him, but his phone was off. He must be on the plane by now."That bastard!" Nancy cussed.At that moment, Nancy was panicking again because Celica was taken away from her again.

    Nancy finally landed. As soon as she walked out of the airport, a black sedan pulled up in front of her.The chauffeur got out and said, "Ms. Lawson, Mr. Getson had arranged for us to pick you up."Nancy was careful and played it safe, so she asked, "Why didn't he come in person?""Mr. Getson is busy… babysitting."Nancy was speechless.Although Celica was usually well-behaved and cooperative, a child at her age could be a handful. That was especially true at night. If Nancy was not around, getting her to settle down would be a challenge.After Nancy got in the car, she noticed that they were not heading toward the Getson Estate but were making their way to Amethyst Coast.Many years ago, Yaacob and Nancy had a house in the neighborhood when they first got married. Yaacob had lived here by himself ever since the divorce.Nancy did not know the intensity and brutality that took place during the presidential election. She had no idea of the cascading effect on the internal strugg

    "Breaking off the engagement?"The news surprised Lynn and President Keating early in the morning."What…what happened?" President Keating was confused. He looked at Yaacob and asked, "Why would you decide not to marry Lynn out of the blue?""Mr. President, I am sure we are both well aware. The reason why we made Lynn and my relationship public in the first place was to divert her attention and suppress any scandalous press. However, three years had passed and everyone would have forgotten about what happened back then. Lynn has been recovering very well psychologically too. Besides, I had no feelings for her all these years, so it is only natural that we part ways," Yaacob explained."But you declared that you will marry Lynn to so many people. Yet, you change your mind now. Isn't that deception? What would people think of her now?" President Keating asked.He was very worried that it would be very hard for Lynn to marry a good man after what had happened to her in the past. Maki

    Lynn was here to catch them in the act.However, she started to run away after having recognized Nancy.Perhaps it was because Nancy would remind her of the horrific nightmares from three years ago.As Lynn was running away frantically, Celica was puzzled and asked, "Mommy, what is she doing?""I don't know," replied Nancy.Nancy patted the leaves from Celica's body, picked up her ball, and brought her back inside.She felt she had to let Yaacob know Lynn was here and had seen her.Yaacob was busy making pudding in the kitchen because Celica said she wanted some. He did not bother to go to the office today and had been cooking up a storm since morning.However, when he heard that Nancy had run into Lynn, he dropped everything and chased after her.He left in such a hurry that Nancy and Celica could feel a gush of wind sweeping their hair as he walked past them.She tucked her hair behind her ear and looked up at Nancy, asking, "What's wrong with Uncle Yaacob?""Who knows?"

    Yaacob stayed in Nancy and Celica's house in Rhea City for a month without leaving.After sending Celica to kindergarten, Yaacob sent Nancy to the company.Nancy always asked him to stop the car two streets away from the company, but that day, Yaacob went a bit further, and she started to get anxious. "Stop the car, quick. Stop going forward. It's the peak hour right now. I can't let anyone see me."Yaacob stopped the car, but he did not unlock the door.He lowered the top of the convertible and asked her, "Is being with me that embarrassing to you?""I'm not with you. This is just a transaction!" Nancy insisted.She could not open the door and noticed that Yaacob had locked it. When she went to unlock it, her hand was pushed down by the man."Don't I make you happy? Is Celica unhappy? Don't you enjoy every night that we're together? You clearly have me in your heart, but why do you keep denying it? Nancy, what happened to your boldness and carefree spirit?

    Nancy had just stopped at Athenapolis to pick up some things she had left with Benson's friends when they had stayed there.She had also wanted to congratulate Rowena and Randall on their marriage and to apologize for not being able to attend their wedding.However, the next day, she could not get up at all.Fearing another intense night like the one before, she decided to book a flight to Rhea City that afternoon.The moment she sat on the plane, Nancy almost collapsed in her seat. Her lower back was aching.When she shut her eyes, her head was inexplicably flooded with certain images.It was like she was under a spell!"Ms., the flight is about to take off. Please switch off your phones," the flight attendant told Nancy.Nancy remembered that she had already turned off her phone.However, she turned around to see Celica looking at her phone unhappily."Sorry."Nancy switched off Celica's phone, but she did not seem happy about it.

    After half a year, Nancy finally returned from America with Celica.Celica held Nancy's hand in one hand and a cat plushie that was almost half her size in another.As soon as they walked out of the VIP channel, Celica's sharp eyes immediately spotted the man who had come to pick them up. She abandoned her plushie as she rushed to him, hands outstretched and waiting to be carried."Uncle Yaacob! Uncle Yaacob!""Celica, don't run so fast!"Nancy could not stop her and could only follow behind, picking up the plushie along with some candy that had dropped from her pocket as she ran.Yaacob hurried forward and immediately scooped Celica up. He smelled the sweet scent of candy."Uncle Yaacob…"Celica hugged Yaacob, nuzzling her head against his. The fine and soft hair that was unique to a child warmed Yaacob's heart.It had been two years, but she had not forgotten him!It seemed like her memory was better than expected. She had probably gotten it from him.Of course, it was als

    Randall and Rowena went to the same motel they had the last time.The boss remembered them as the ones who had broken his window, but he did not give them a hard time, warmly welcoming them instead.After all, the money that Randall had given him for it had been enough to replace the windows of the whole building. This time, Randall flexed his financial might again. He pulled out a wad of cash from his wallet and put it on the counter. "Boss, we want an entire floor.""Sir, do you want one room or two?""The whole floor!"Hearing what Randall said, Rowena looked at him in amazement. "Why so many rooms?""Have you forgotten how bad the soundproofing is here?" Randall replied.Rowena was speechless.The hotel owner was a veteran of this. He immediately put the money into the counter drawer and said, "Okay, I'll give you a key to a room on the third floor. I'll go knock on every door to clear the floor out right now. I assure you that you'll have an enjoyable night!"Rowena fel

    "How absurd!"Randall's words were not meant to demean her. He just felt that it was too dangerous for the child to be there.Rowena, however, felt like she was being blamed for no reason."Why are you in a restaurant with this girl in the middle of the night?" Rowena asked Randall.Randall did not answer. He walked forward to help secure Dorothy before he took the dangerous weapon off her hands."Rowena, you should bring Sandy back for now."Rowena did not move."It's too dangerous for the both of you to be here. Listen to me!" Randall told her.Rowena did not respond. Instead, it was Dorothy who spoke: "Mr. Smith, why do you think she can just come and go as she pleases? I already told my subordinates that not even a fly is allowed out."Even though Rowena had been captured, she knew that they would not be able to walk free if anything happened to her so the man would not touch her so easily."Mrs. Browning, you just wanted to talk with me."Dorothy really liked talking to

    Dorothy and Randall found themselves in a standoff. Suddenly, a hushed report from her subordinate reached Dorothy's ears. "Someone's outside, claiming to have information on Mr. Randall.""Who? Could it be that Yaacob has returned earlier than expected?" Dorothy, determined to prevail over Randall that night, insisted, "Don't let him in; I can't believe he would just barge in!""It's not Mr. Randall. It's a woman, accompanied by a child." The subordinate hesitated before providing more details.Rowena, who had given birth just four months ago, had swiftly regained her pre-pregnancy figure. She wore a navy blue striped shirt knotted at the waist, paired with snug jeans, showing no signs of her previous pregnancy. From behind, she looked slender and youthful, resembling a young girl. Yet, in front, she cradled a baby.The infant, only three or four months old, sported a hat with a few wisps of hair peeking out and a pacifier. The child's intelligent eyes darted around, exploring the

Opting against hiring a nanny, he naturally assumed the responsibility of caring for his pregnant wife.He would juggle the demands of running the company and handling household matters. Randall appeared fatigued, yet those with keen observation could discern a tired but content expression on his face.

When are you due?""In about a month," Rowena replied."That's wonderful! Congratulations! I saw you during one of my check-ups. Is the man accompanying you each time your husband?"
