The next day, Rowena woke up feeling sore and like her bones had been dismantled and reattached. Recalling what had happened last night, she had the urge to curse.

Especially when she woke up to see Randall's face!

Randall had placed his arm underneath Rowena's pillow and was using his other arm to tightly hold her waist. He had been cuddling her the whole night.

Rowena felt awkward and uneasy. She was not used to being so close and intimate with him — even though they had done the most intimate of acts last night.

She tried to move, but suddenly, something was revived. 'He hasn't had enough?' she thought.

When Rowena moved, Randall woke up because they were sleeping so close. He looked at her sleepily. His exhaustion did not stop him from feeling happy and smiling.

"Rowena, good morning," Randall said.

"I'm getting out of bed!" Rowena told him.

"All right." Randall nodded and continued smiling ambiguously at her. It felt like he was teasing her and wondering why she had not le

Randall asked."I'm giving you today to settle it. If y

Money or resources?" asked Yaacob as he walked into the house.Benson was dumbfounded."I'll give you whatever you want, as long as you agree to divorce Nancy. Just name your price."Yes, Yaacob came to make a deal with Benson.Since Nancy refused to get a divorce, Yaacob decided to go for Benson instead."Mr. Getson, I don't need anything.

I'm sure there are many more meaningful things in this world for you, Mr. Getson.

He would have sewn her under his skin if he could."Nancy, I thought you're a smart woman who knows how to work things to your advantage? Ask yourself, who will take care of Celica if you get sick? What if you pass on the cold to me, and then to Celica? Do you want all of us to die together?""No.""No? Because it sure seems like it. Don't tell me Benson is the only person in your life now? Even our daughter is not as important as him!

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?

    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.

    "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

Could it be that Yaacob has returned earlier than expected?"

The subordinate hesitated before providing more details.Rowena, who had given birth just four months ago, had swiftly regained her pre-pregnancy figure.
