The one week concluded that Cherry is supposed to stay has passed and there hasn’t been much development in her case, neither have they prepared the transfer documents as promised. Rex got impatient and worried that Ross intentionally didn’t want Cherry to leave, and using the opportunity of Rex's absence to delay the transfer pissed him more than ever. So Rex made up his mind to confront Ross on Monday morning.Maria was able to escape her parent’s house and the whole Spanish community that wouldn’t give her some privacy and dedicated to spending most of her time constantly checking up on Cherry and representing Rex who has been busy with the press lately.At some point that same week, news finally got out that Cherry had been hospitalized but the real reason hasn’t reached the public ears. Rex wasn’t so happy about it and vividly warned the hospital not to spread any information to anyone without first contacting him. If someone was after Cherry and the baby security measures needed
“I can’t go in and I don’t think now is the right time.” Ann whispers into the phone.“Yes, you can. It’s just a hospital filled with patients and busy doctors, just go in and get the room number that’s all.” Susanna persuades her on the phone.“You go in and do it yourself if it’s so easy!” Ann snaps irritably.“Fine, fine… I’m sorry. You should know there is nothing we can do if we got no info. Okay, let’s do it this simple way, you scout the surroundings including the back of the hospital, check for cameras and jot down the number of security personnel securing the entire place before making the first move to enter.”“You know what Susanna, I wished you were the one doing all the snooping because you seem pretty good at it. We talked about this before you screwed things, we said I do what is mine and you do what is yours.” Ann accused while scouting easy to navigate streets around the Town premise hospital.Susanna once assured Ann to enter without a mask on her face saying she ble
…All five were in the room watching the screen in dead silence, but Rex wasn’t satisfied having two extra males in the room. He didn’t want either of them touching Cherry but he had to hold on and not cause a brawl over something so little.“Can I have only female doctors here?” Rex asked the female doctor in charge.“Sir, you cannot request which doctor you want as long as they are there to help. This is not the time to rebel. Every doctor chosen here is only given the opportunity to assist Cherry for today. Should in case I can’t get a proper shot of the baby, they are here to aid our work sir,”“Don’t you have female nurses instead?” Rex persuades.“We do-”“Just focus on what you are doing.” He blurts out after Maria kicks his shin.Rex remained quiet and continued watching the screen as the doctor performs an ultrasound. At some point, Cherry twitched before resuming back to sleep.“There it is!” The doctor exclaims. “A beautiful healthy baby.”“Wow!” Maria exclaims.“How is th
Both Jerry and Kyle were shocked to receive an urgent call from Rex asking for a ward in the Rylan hall to be set and also requesting a passage through the back of the hospital with no audience in quote. Both doctors finished setting up the ward with the help of a few medical assistants and they rush up to the back where Rex and the VIP should arrive.“Get ready guys this might be the biggest job we will ever do.” Jerry tells them strongly. Everyone present was bold and desperate to meet their patient but as the distant siren wails closer some young doctors started to get nervous about staying.“Hold your ground will ya!.” Kyle scolds some nurses squirming around.They all readied themselves as the ambulance pulled over and they rushed behind the vehicle to unload. Jerry allows the team to wheel out the patient with Kyle by his side wondering why Rex wanted him present. To their greatest surprise and horror, it was Cherry who got wheeled out, she was the VIP patient everyone was expec
The next day…The whole scene from the previous day had been settled but Rex still had Ross in mind. He was yet to forgive Ross McSullivan for lying to him and cunning his way for trying to keep Cherry locked up in Town Premise. Due to the high workload at the office and Ann’s sultry performances to gain his attention Rex ended up looking worn out that he had to call for Mia to take over but she wasn’t available because she was with Cherry at the hospital.“Gerald…” Rex called tiredly through the intercom and in a matter of seconds, Gerald was inside the office. Apparently, Rex had moved Gerald temporarily to the thirteenth floor not as a secretary but as an acting receptionist.“Yes sir…” He responds politely.“Gather a team… excuse me, prepare a presentation for snug and sock company. Their representative to receive the video will arrive here any moment-” Rex instructs tiredly but Gerald found it funny and stifled laugh which drags Rex’s attention.“Snug and sock…” Gerald mutters jo
Somewhere in so-ho…Ann answers the door after hearing the bell ring, before she had time to see whoever it was Ann was shoved aside while two persons in hoodies enter her home uninvited. A perplexed Ann snaps out of shock and confronts them boldly not scared of their intimidating appearance.“Hey! Excuse me! Who are you to barge into my home uninvited?!” She yells at the two.Both persons paused from going further, their backs turned to her, and the leanest from them removes the hood masking their appearance and faced Ann.“Hello, Ann.” Susanna greets curtly.“Susanna?” Ann questions in surprise. “What are you doing here?” She cautiously took a glance outside and closed the door.“I am here to see you isn’t it obvious?” Susanna rolled her eyes mockingly as if expecting Ann to have known.“Like now? Right- right now? Susie do you know what time it is?” Ann questioned the former supermodel.“It’s mid-day, yes I know.” Susanna behaved ill-mannered.“Anyone could have seen you coming to
Still at the hospital {Rex’s p.o.v}… “Screw everything!” Rex continued to sprawl out his frustration outside the ward. Luckily for him, this was a private area and no person is present to watch him have a major breakdown. Rex sees no gain in throwing tantrums in the air and sits on the available chair, his back slouched forward and hands supporting his head. Despite finding some quiet time Rex didn’t stop swearing at himself, only when Jerry joins him did he stop. “Mr Angelo?” Jerry called carefully and in an instant, the billionaire was on his feet. “How is she?” He quickly asked fearing the worse might have happened. “Thank God we were on time otherwise, who knows what might have happened.” Jerry pauses. “I promise she is a strong young lady with a lot of endurance. Despite the trauma and the minor health complications, she is experiencing she fought through it.” Jerry praised and sticks his hands into his lab coat pockets. “Thank God!…” Rex looks up and smiles in relief. “She
The day of the grand finale…“Two, three… two three… do you copy?”“Over, I can hear you top cat.”“Are you in position fluffy bunny?”“Copy.”“Ann two one three…”“I thought I told you not to call me that?” Ann’s annoyed voice responds on the radio.“Come on don’t be a prude and loosen up, today is our big day.”“Yeah right.” Ann huffs clearly not in the mood for Susanna’s lame jokes.“Honey, we can’t use our real names, this is an operation.” Susanna rolls her eyes.“But you called me my own name?.” Ann points out.“Great point! Sorry, I just found the need to say that but let’s try something different…” Susanna says and Ann groans. Susanna can imagine seeing her lean back against the headrest and facepalming. “How about… tic bomb?”“Definitely not!”“Tic bomb it is! Ann, we don’t have time to ask what nicknames you want, this is not a contest. At least you don’t have to keep it forever so lady up!... James going in, steady.” Susanna replies playfully.“After this, we both are done
The day of the hearing…“December twentieth, we hold the case of kidnapping, attempted murder, blackmail, compromise, possession of illegal arms, and tampering with private property, charged in the name of Miss Susanna Tyler. Please may the accused stand on the witness stand.”A clerk reads her file as proposed by the court then sits back on her chair.“The hearing had been done and all the witness testimonies have been recorded… Miss Tyler…” The judge began.“Yes?” Susanna responds with a stiff attitude.“Do you agree with all that have been said in this court against you?” The judge asks.“I do know I am innocent and one day I will prove it!” She spoke defiantly.“Well, Miss Tyler, all the evidences points to you as the main suspect for all the crimes, and there are several witnesses to back up the evidences. Are you saying all these is a hoax to frame you?” The judge asked but Susanna refuses to answer. “For the last time Miss Tyler, do you plead innocent to all the accusation?”Su
~~~~~~Thanksgiving day…Rex, Maria, Gerald and the babies all went to spent thanksgiving at the hospital with Cherry. Even though she was still in coma and unable to communicate they didn’t want to leave her side, but Rex to be precise made everyone stay and celebrate the occasion with his sleeping girlfriend.“Hey baby, I know you can hear me in there. It’s thanksgiving and guess who I brought along!… It’s Mia, Gerald and Jerry.” He points at the trio stand at the foot of the bed.“Hey Cherry…I hope you miss us because we missed you.” Maria touches her foot lightly then shifts the baby in her arms.“Really, I wanted this day to be for us… so we can celebrate thanksgiving together but…” He drawls and takes her right hand. “Just get well for us, so we can finally be happy.”“She will…” Mia promised.They all stayed longer in the ward, talking and playing with the babies until evening. When it got late Jerry excused himself and Gerald announced his parting but offered to take Maria hom
November 28th two days to thanksgiving…Day two after the whole drama…Everything was back like in the old times, no more fights and yelling. Kayla had been arrested for conspiracy with a criminal and will stand trail when Susanna is ready to face court. According to Jason and his lawyer, the hearing will hold in a few days if Cherry is well enough to testify against Susanna.Rex and Maria spent more time in the new penthouse, with Rex working his ass off to make up for the lost time from work, and trying to spend some quality time with his daughters. All along, Maria had to make regularly visits to care for the babies because Rex had little trust with his staff alone with the girls. He comes into the nursery where Maria was just changing baby two diaper.“Hey…” She drawled.“I checked the kitchen but you weren’t there.” Rex told her.“Yes, I have to stay with them constantly because they are having constant diarrhea.” She reports in a stern voice.“What?” Rex moves to the babies quic
Fifteen minutes of arguing…Maria and Kayla were very lost in the word-to-word fight which had been going on for about fifteen minutes now, and with Jerry trying to separate them, nothing stopped the argument. It’s a miracle no one was trying to shoot another or knock themselves out.“QUIET!!!!!!!!!!!” Maria soon shouts angrily after having enough of the quarrel digested in her system. Everyone instantly went silent and Jerry stares at her in wonder. “We have been in this DAMN office for fifteen minutes and neither of you is ready to SHUT UP! I am sick of listening to meaningless screaming and quarrel! If you all can’t settle your differences like normal people, at least be mature to do it!” Maria expresses.“You know I didn’t want them here but you let them stay.” Rex points out to Maria.“Son, why are you referring to us as strangers?” Marcelo frowns at Rex.“You are been strangers since you and mom left!.” Rex snaps angrily.“Rex!- I’m sorry Sir Angelo, Rex is a little… confused an
At St.Angelo hospital…Cherry was immediately rushed to the ER for an urgent operation to stop the afterbirth bleeding which suddenly happened in the ambulance without any warning. Rex wasn’t allowed into the ER and didn’t fight his way inside. He let them take care of her knowing she in safe hands, and waited tensely in the hallway.Soon after he got a tip that Maria and the babies were in the hospital and being attended to. Rex waited hours for any news, even when the doctors passed in front of him, he tried asking what was happening behind the doors bu they only gave him more unanswered questions and worries.When it looks like his patience was running out and he threatens to force his way inside, Jerry comes out finally to deliver the news without a but or suspense in his words.“SO?…” Rex asked desperately.“The surgery was successful and she is stable.” Jerry announced to him and Rex instantly let out a relieved breath and sang praises under his breath. “But…” Jerry continued an
“Another one?” Maria and the others listening around all exclaim in shock.“Another baby?” Divine and her team also exclaim.Yep, no one was expecting to deliver two babies at the same time.Rex takes their daughter and lay her on the spare bed her set up, making sure she was properly secure before going back to Cherry. His heart pounds uncontrollable in his chest wondering if Cherry will be able to give birth to the other baby. He quickly grabs the radio to ask for help.“She’s having another what should I expect?.”“The same, it should be much easier since one baby has passed out-”“Okay! Maria,how far are you coming with the hatch?” He cuts Divine to speak with his sister.“Just a little more time and we are through. This things is like a freaking military tank! Our guy here is doing his best to cut through the door.”“Just hurry up please.”“We will.”Rex positions to deliver the second child and squeezed her knees to comfort her.“Cherry, I know you-”“This is your fault!” She sc
Outside the chaos ‘Maria’s point of view’…After getting the information of the possible location of the hatch, Maria, Gerald and some police officers go in search for it. Afternoon has passed and the fire burning the mansion is yet to be quenched, many local and international news have gathered to get a glimpse of the situation so they can create a juicy story to share with the public.While they divided themselves into groups in search of the hatch nobody have come up with anything yet.“Do you think we will be able to find this hatch?” Gerald ask Maria.“I don’t know but I put faith on what Rex said, and I h-” Her words were cut when she trips over something and falls unexpectedly to the ground. “Ouch!” She protests while rubbing her calf.“Maria! Are you alright?” Gerald bends low to check on her.“Yeah, I might have tripped over a tree root or something hard-” She frowns deeply and tries soothing the throbbing on her right leg.“Here, let me see…” Gerald takes her leg and removes
Inside the bunker.Rex and Cherry were safe from the danger of the poisonous smoke and burning of the fire but they can’t depend on staying in there forever so Rex tries to call Maria using his cellphone but there was no signal in the bunker. He wanted to let them know he was alright and Cherry was safe but the network was very poor and rigid. “Shit!” He cuss when he couldn’t reach anyone.Cherry’s groaning and small screams brought him back to focus, and he scoots down to her level and checked her body for burns or trauma. Her skin was clear and untouched from a single burn which relieved him.“Thank God you are safe.” He pulls her or a hug but she yells in his ear.“I think the baby is coming!”Rex cringes at the loudness but recovers to do the needful, its just both of them to deliver this baby but Cherry is counting on him to help her.“Hold on, let me prepare the bed.” He says and goes to get what is available to aid her delivery, during his search for some repellent bed sheets
Back at Maria’s apartment, eleven in the morning…Maria was having coffee and cookies in her living room when she decided to turn on the television to watch some movie. She scrolled through some channels until she came across a LIVE news broadcasting channel talking about a fire consuming a mansion. Maria didn’t think much about and scrolled past it but then again curiosity got the best of her and she channeled back to the tv station. She closely listened to the news and watched the footage shown by the police helicopter from above while enjoying her breakfast but then something catches her attention.‘the wall? Are those-’ her thoughts paused and she physically increased the volume. Maria got a little closer to the television and recognized the environment. Her heart sank in her stomach when she recognizes Rex’s massive mansion gates. Before she can have time to react to the loss her hone rang.“Hello?.” She places the phone in her ear.“Maria, are you seeing the news?” Jerry asked
