The City High Restaurant was at uproar when suddenly group of cops entered their eating place looking for someone.

"What have we violated?" the owner burst out when a van of police officers forcibly went in one fine day.

Even their costumers were shocked. This was a high end restaurant. Their place was clean and they followed protocols.

What's going on?

"We apologize, Mr. David. But does this person work in your restaurant?" one of the cops asked while showing him an A4 size photo from a cctv.

The owner squinted his eyes and his brows furrowed.

"He did. He quit the other day. He said something bad happened to his father in their province, he had to leave the city for good!" the owner replied.

The cop turned around and glanced at his fellow cops. Then turned back to talk to the owner again.

Anna, a newly graduate nurse whispered while giggling."I wonder who is he going to treat. I hope it's me!" Becky, a bit older and longer in the hospital than Anna gasped in awe as she lifted her head when Sean and Samantha's dad, along with Antonio and the five nurses turned right."Whoever that person is, he or she is lucky!" Ana sighed in adoration as she put her hand on her chest.At the glass window, Albert remained standing staring at his wife. The nurses offered him a seat but he refused it.

Andrea replied when she regained her senses."Ahm! How did you... meet her?" she then asked while she narrowed her eyes."At the bar. It's a long story.

    Two days ago...Benjamin and Eve were in a heated argument as to what to do next now that their plan to lure Samantha out failed.Instead of her suffering from paranoia, she suffered from almost close to comatose. If she was not having her treatment, her body couldn't get this much strength to fight the effects of drugs. But luckily for her, she was taking a strong medicine to block its effect in her organs.However, the drugs that were mixed to her food when she was at the hospital was stronger than the drugs Eve fed her at the mansion."Who would have thought, Dr. Turman found a medicine to combat the effect of the drugs in her body?" Eve snorted as she elegantly crossed her legs on the couch while leaning on the backrest."What now?"Benjamin's Parkinson's disease was also attacking him and it added to his annoyance at the moment. As he sat opposite to Eve, his trembling hands held the armrest tight. His glare on her was chopping her senses to pieces

He shifted his glare at the woman he once violated and ruined. He moved a step back when he saw that Madeline was now pointing a gun on him.She sauntered following his movement. Her flare was fixed on his terrified stare. He was wobbling back while her hands were trembling in rage.Just one mistake, she might fired in no time."Miss Swan, if you are going to kill me, you will become a wanted criminal. Do you want that to happen?"He was trying to convert her attention to something else. To something he thought would fear her. To something he was confident would make her retreat.However, her response left him dumbfounded and at the same time... defeated."I have thrown my dream away since you wasted me monster. My only goal now is to kill you and let the insects feast for your

Ten seats away from them.However, even if Edward put on his headphone and listened loudly to a rock music, d*mn he could still hear their annoying groans and moans.Even the flight attendants had to excuse themselves everytime they passed by. Although they were in a couple seat and the design of Twin Wings Couple Seat Cabins were like a convertible car which you could roll the roof up and down, what they were doing inside was loud and clear.Also, it was a good thing it was just them in the business class."D*mn it!

    "General Manager Michaels, someone is looking for you!" Grace, his secretary told him one Monday morning after a week of Tristan's birthday."Who? I don't expect any visitor in Monday especially at this hour!" Albert squinted his eyes at Grace after looking at his watch which gold chain was wrapped around his wrist.It was eight in the morning!"Sorry, sir but she said her name is Ms. Katie Holmes!" Grace replied in an apologetic tone."Who's Katie Holmes?" he was even more confused now.He rose from his seat as he placed his hands in his pocket. He stood straight waiting for that Katie Holmes disturbing his busy early Monday.When Grace turned around and looked sideward gesturing the visitor to come in, he was even more baffled to see the woman wearing revealing clothes.Her halter red tight fit tops and white skinny slacks plus an open toe knee strap sandals were scanned by his now narrowed eyes.As he took a glimpse of her face, he saw a sm

    In a high-end restaurant in the heart of the city, two beautiful single moms were going to talk to clear a slate. They were both calm, grace, and dignified."You will always be my sister-in-law no matter what!" Liz sincerely told Samantha while the latter still felt embarrassed that she was one of those narrow-minded people who believed something was going on between them with her ex-husband."I'm sorry. I don't know what to say!" all she could say was this.But her actions spoke a lot of meaningful words she couldn't express in sentences."It's all right. It happens to people. And we are not exempted!" Liz just shook her head as she gave Samantha a genuine smile.Samantha left a light chuckle with her phrase and just like her, she also shook her head."Yeah! We are not exempted!" she repeated."So, when will you two get back together? Tristan is at his age to have a sibling. He's already almost ten!" she channeled their talks to another topic when they were done clearing things out."

    "Albert is in Ireland now? Is that true?" Candice who had overseas photoshoots for months was surprised when Grace told her about what happened three months ago.She who never liked to watch nor read the news was really ignorant when it came to those current events but when it was all about fashion, she was number one!"Yes, Miss Candice. The hospital here transferred him to Houston Medical Hospital two weeks ago!" Grace sternly uttered."But why? The hospitals here are also good!" Candice still insisted on digging for more information about him."It was Dr. Houston's command!" Grace still casually replied though deep inside she would like to yell at her saying 'Stop wasting my time! Just fly to Ireland if you want!'"Okay, thanks for the info. Bye!" Candice told her in haste before she strode towards the lift.Inside the lift, she called her manager right away."Get me a ticket going to Ireland tonight. I need to see Albert!""Okay, right away!" her manager obeyed at once..After abo

Laila would like to turn around and run away for a while but her flat shoes were nailed to the floor."Laila, right?" one of the doctors asked as he sauntered toward her.She just gawked at him. She couldn't believe she had just eaten her tongue. She flickered her eyes and tried to speak, but she staggered in her voice."Yes, dictor...I mean doc...tor...!" she shut her eyes for a moment while shaking her head. Then she composed herself and spoke again."Yes, Doctor Arnolds!" Laila finally uttered...without looking at him. Her eyes glanced around instead."Beautiful name...Like the owner!"

    Earlier...When Albert saw the group of policemen about one kilometer away waiting for them, he did his best to draw Madeline's attention to something else while removing the cloth that was wrapped around his wrists."Why are you doing all of these? What happened to you?""What happened to me? It was you who made me this way. If you didn't cancel our wedding before, we're supposed to be husband and wife now, and maybe, we're supposed to have children now!" she yelled as her glare was burning his eyes."But you feel disgusted by me. Since that monster kidnapped me, you never talked to me again. You avoided me like I was a plague!" she kept on releasing everything that's been keeping her bottled up for too long."Then you suddenly fell in love with a servant? How dare you, Albert?" her fantasy was making her blind but Albert never really listened to her prattles."What's your plan on me now?" he asked as he sneered.Finally, he loosed the cloth. He sideglanced at Rona whose eyes were shu

    "Grace, could you get me the reviewed documents from Houston Group? The one I approved yesterday!" Albert called Grace on his intercom but to his surprise, she didn't answer."Grace, the contract from Houston!" he repeated but still it was dead air."Maybe she went to the restroom!" he whispered as he walked out of his office to get the documents himself.But to his shock, he saw Grace lying unconsciously on the cold marbled floor. He was about to call 911 when somebody just hit him on his head. He irked in pain but he didn't lose his consciousness. As he turned around while holding his head that was hit, he squinted his eyes when he saw a sneering Katie appearance but he knew that was Madeline."You?" he exclaimed but even before he could push the alarm button, he received another hit that was stronger than the first. This time, he had lost his consciousness.Simon carried him back inside his office while Madeline followed. However, an employee who happened to pass by saw a glimpse of

    She released an evil laugh while staring at the headline that bannered their glorious names:'Madeline Swan, Wanted! Lance Swan Captures!'She laughed at the authorities who always failed to arrest her.She laughed at Houston's men who were waiting for her arrival.Above all, she laughed at Albert and the Michaels for not sensing her closeness in their visibility."St*pid powerful people!" she aggravatingly snorted.She was holding a red wine while sitting on their usual white Italian leather couch.Where?In an originally breathtaking place that became a haunted house.Indeed, Lance helped her escape and fooled the authorities that she was going to Ireland. Her father prepared her hideout once again. But this time, no one would even think she went back to the city of opportunities, to that penthouse where two wanted criminals were killed more than two years ago. The one was killed by her."Miss Swan, they all thought you're in Ireland now!" Simon grinned.He was pouring Madeline a gla

    "Even if you will kill me, I would never tell you where my daughter is. She deserves to do those things after everything that happened to her!" Lance Swan shouted at length in a wild, impassioned way."Congratulations, President Lance! You've just admitted you know where your daughter is!" Jake spoke in a contemptuous manner rather.The police station where Vanessa and Jake were assigned immediately arrested Lance Swan when Vanessa called that day.When the doctor in Maui nodded that it was Lance who ordered them to make Cheska's condition worst, she instructed her team to arrest him right away."I'm gonna be behind bars anyway. But I'm not going to tell you where my daughter is!" Lance firmly told him.Jake slowly leaned on the chair glaring at him while his fingers were rhythmically tapping the table. Just one more he thought. He might give this middle-aged man a knuckle sandwich.They were both startled when Vanessa opened the door and announced."Good news! The eel is in Ireland!"

    At dinner, Albert brought Candice to a western diner. Her favorite. When the waiter arrived, he ordered almost all of her favorite food such as beefy casserole, cheesy turkey broccoli pasta, and biscuit topped chicken pot pie. He also ordered some dessert and a glass of red wine."Thanks for accepting my invitation, Albert. Even if our relationship is just a sham, at least you're still gentleman enough not to decline!" Candice shyly told him while she tucked some strands of her hair behind her earlobe.But Albert was way too busy glancing around while his hands were clasped on the table. As much as possible he didn't want to see Candice anymore since the latter started showing some interest in him."Ahm! I always love beefy casserole. Here, try some!"She stuffed a cube of meat in his mouth and because it was sudden he wasn't able to shun it. He reluctantly chewed the food while frowning at her."It's delicious, right? Oh, there's a sauce left at the corner of your lips!" She even took

    In Maui Medical Hospital...Chester was staring at her weak pale face while his hand was gently brushing her hair. She was still unconscious but the doctor said, her condition was getting better.He gritted his teeth everytime he remembered what the doctor told them. He had been violated not just once. Based from the findings of a single pubic hair they saw on her thigh when the swat team saw her in the big empty house, the owner was Simon Flord."I'm gonna kill you, bastard!" he muttered while staring at her.He had been looking for Cheska since she suddenly left more than two years ago. He tried to call her but her phone was disconnected. He thought she intentionally cut ties with him so after months of trying, he finally gave up.When he heard a soft moan, he sat straight as he moved closer."Cheska!" he gently called her name.His blurry eyes were glued on her pallid face. He touched his cheek while his other hand clasped her hand with an IV dr
