"I had no idea, you two had met!" Lance uttered as he glanced at Benjamin and Madeline.

The word 'displease' was written all over his face. They were having lunch at a high end restaurant near Houston Group Tower.

Benjamin and Madeline accidentally saw each other in the mall one time when he was still with his mistress and Madeline was with Cheska, Chester's girlfriend.

Now, Benjamin invited the father and daughter for lunch or to have a serious talk about Isabella's situation.

"Daddy, I didn't know you are friend with Mr. Madrigal. I just met him in his nephew's banquet before!" Madeline uttered while she was sitting beside her father.

"Business Associate, sweetheart. Not friends!" Lance corrected.

Benjamin just chuckled at his rude behavior. He knew well he was upset with him. He was enraged by the fact that they had been played by Christopher Michaels 14 years ago.

"It's good seeing you again my former business associate!" he uttered with wry sm

    In Maria's place...Fe stayed in their place which was an hour ride by bus from the mansion the whole weekend. She cooked dinner for Isabella since Maria was working at night. She also helped her with her chores.After their lunch..."Let me do your laundry, Isabella!" Fe offered when she saw that she was just gawking at the laundry machine."Ahm! I don't know how to use this. Can you teach me, Aunt Fe?" Isabella shyly uttered."Of course. Don't worry, this is easy. Come here!" Fe found Isabella adorable when she asked shyly. She thought of Samantha right away. They're the same she uttered inwardly. Just that Isabella acted really elegantly while Samantha was a bit careless."Make sure to separate your laundry first. There are some clothes that aren't machine wash. Let me see!" Fe scanned her dirty clothes while Isabella was getting redder and redder especially when she held her innerwear."Ahm, Aunt Fe. This is embarrassing!" Isabella took her lac

    Isabella pretended to be fixing her sneakers while Fe was shielding her. Benjamin was getting closer and when he was in front of them, he stared at them for a while. Fe was trembling while Isabella was sweating."Something wrong with your shoes, young lady?" Benjamin asked while she glanced at Isabella."Ahm! She is tying her shoelaces, sir. She's my daughter!" Fe immediately responded."I see. Well, I am new here. I just wanna ask if you know which floor is the Chanel Store. My girlfriend is waiting for me there!" Benjamin suddenly uttered.Isabella was dumbstruck. Girlfriend she exclaimed in her thought. Was her uncle cheating on her aunt now? What a disgrace she grimaced.When their taxi had arrived, they felt relief. But was also stupefied when they saw Madeline rushing in."Oh! That's my girlfriend!" Benjamin happily uttered which made Isabella dumbfounded when she peeped at the woman he was talking about in between Fe's legs."Let's go!" Fe u

    "Are you out of your mind?" Albert exclaimed in anger."She never left my side, Madeline. Did you just come here to bully her again?" also added.He was panting as he went in between them shielding Samantha from Madeline's sudden attack."I'm not lying, Albert. She was with a woman older than her. Probably her mother. She... She was the one who slapped me. She pushed me first then after that she slapped me!" Madeline was also trembling in anger.When she stared at Samantha who was behind Albert, she was stunned. That's the only time she realized the difference between her and Isabella."You're hair! It was short. It was shoulder length short and it's not wine color. It was black. You have black hair and you're wearing glasses and a baseball cap. You're wearing rugged fitted jeans and loose pink shirt. How did you change that fast? Were you just wearing a wig a while ago. Let me check those if they are wig or not!"She was trying to reach Samantha's hair

    "I live in River Park. It's a land owned by the Michaels. Our original place was in Springville. It's were I grew up and spent my childhood days!" Samantha replied while staring at him.Her voice was sullen. She remembered how their small village was torn down to pieces right before their neighbors' eyes. Their friends and neighbors left the place with only worn-out bags and coins in their pockets. She remembered how she sat and slept on her aunt's shoulder on the cold cement ground waiting for almost an hour at twilight.She also remembered how Albert rescued all of them and gave them a new life. A curl up smile appeared at the corner of her lips upon recalling that certain moment where she was carried in his arm while cursing him in her heart. She just heard it from Andy when she was already awake that Albert was hurt with what she had told him while she's unconscious."What happened to Springville?" Enrique asked."It was torn down. The government sold it to a

    "Whew! I had no idea your family is... that fierce!" Enrique whistled as he took a deep sigh while driving.He still couldn't believe that he was chased by an angry woman with a big knife. That was so far the first time that he ran away from a fight."I'm sorry! I don't know what has gotten into them today. They're not like that to guests and other people. Especially my Aunt Maria, she's very kind. I don't know what happened to her today!" Samantha was so abashed that she couldn't look Enrique in the eye.When he saw she was still in shocked and her cheeks were getting redder, he cracked the awkward atmosphere."On the contrary, I found them funny. Especially when your mom spoke like a Roman soldier. I was tongue-tied!" he chuckled.Samantha glanced at him and thought of what he said. She also couldn't help but to laugh. Her mom who was a typical in-house wife, suddenly spoke like an untiring advocate of an abused group."Samantha, your family is jolly.

    In Enrique's villa..."Dad, we're doing our best to find Isabella. Our men work non stop to look for her!" Enrique was talking to Jackson on the phone.He was at the terrace of his room. He scanned the darkness with his eyes and stared at the four guards in the main gate. They were standing in foot watching the whole villa.He had been in the USA for half a year. Isabella had been missing for two weeks. His parents were losing hope. His father was calling him almost everyday threatening him not to go back to Ireland and live on his own if he couldn't find his sister. His mother was brought to the hospital for weakening of her heart thinking of Isabella day and night.He knew well where Isabella was. Although he didn't see her with his own eyes, he knew his sister was in the care of Samantha's family. He immediately dialed a number and glanced around before he talked."Young Master!" it was Antonio.They had been working round the clock looking for Isabe

    "Señorito, how are you doing?" Antonio asked upon getting out of his car."Antonio, I'm glad you can speak English well now!" Enrique replied as he patted Antonio's shoulder.They just both arrived in the seaside 30 minutes away from Benjamin's and his villa."I have to, Señorito. For you and Isabella's sake. For the Houston clan's sake!" Antonio meaningfully replied as they both faced the calm sea.They leaned their backs against Enrique's car while they both crossed their arms over their chest."Antonio, I'd like you to promise me one thing. That you remain loyal to us. Only to mom and dad's family. No relatives involved!" Enrique started after a weird silence.Antonio faced him with a baffled look. He seemed not to get what he meant. Especially the relatives part."Señorito, Qué quieres decir? (Young Master, what do you mean?)"His eyes were searching for answers. His mouth was itching to ask more. His gesture wa

    The next day, Samantha woke up in a different environment. She blinked her eyes till she got used to the light peeping through the glass window. She slowly got up using both of her hands to carry herself and glanced around.When she looked at the time on the digital clock mounted on the wall in front of her, she sighed."I'm an hour early to my usual time!" she mumbled.She stepped her feet on the wood floor and wore the house slippers she saw on the foot of the bed.The door made a creaking sound when she closed it. She pursed her lips thinking she might have woken up the man sleeping opposite to her room."Sorry!" she whispered imagining Enrique was listening to her.It was six in the morning but the lights in the living room were already on. The servants were now preparing for breakfast. She stealthily crept downstairs towards the kitchen. The servants turned around and smiled at her when they saw her in the entrance."Good morning!" she shyly g

    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.

    "Sam, Isabella told me to come here to help you today and tomorrow. How's Young Master?" Laila was speaking to her as she opened the door while she strode to Albert's VIP Ward.However, she also halted in the middle and her exciting orbs went open as she saw who were Albert's visitors at that time.The four including Albert's doctor glanced in her direction and smiled. 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
