“Thanks …I love you. I will have to leave now. I want to remind you to trust only me. Whatever you will see and hear just know that it will be for the benefit of Happy. You, Happy and Joy are my family, don’t ever forget that. “At that time, she didn’t understand what he meant and honestly it didn’t matter“I understand, please take care “Susan said and Ethan looked at Letty and Melvin.“I will take my leave now. Melvin, we still have a pending conversation and I hope we can close this matter the soonest as possible. It is very important.”“Off course. The patient that your assistant brought to me is doing well. I heard that he came out of his coma yesterday. Isn’t that good news? You are such a good employer and I admire your thoughtfulness. Don’t worry, I will update you on his condition when you have time.” Mel replied with a neutral expression not to arouse any suspicion.Ethan thought “what a clever woman? Always playing her cards well.”Ethan went back home and found Vivian sea
That night, he just sat on his desk doing nothing but thinking. Nowadays he didn’t even care about his company. He was so consumed about his personal life that it wouldn’t let him breathe.By the time he went to sleep, it was already 4.00AM in the morning. Sleep was a luxury for him at the moment and so he took only an hour to rest his body. He had to hit the road as early as possible.On his way to the East city, he called Melvin and she picked up immediately. knowing what Ethan was capable of, she wouldn’t dare ignore him.“Hello ….” She answered“Make an excuse and meet me at the hospital. If you don’t come in the next 2 hours, I will wreak havoc everything in the hospital “He said impatiently and didn’t even give her time to reply. He simply disconnected the call.“The same old threat “Melvin smiled sarcastically.At that time, Melvin was siting beside Mark’s bed. He still looked pale but he was slowly recovering from the internal organs injury he suffered almost a month ago.
“Who are they talking about?” Letty asked.“Sh….sh….ssh …. how am I supposed to know, Letty? Ethan has always been mysterious and I think the same towards Melvin. She has a good and kind heart but I have never understood some aspects about her life.Ethan walked in to the room. The heels of his shoes echoed on the floor. He saw the man, Mark was lying there on the bed looking powerless but he will never feel pity for him.At that point, he didn’t care about him . All that he wanted was to get over with this and get back his baby girl.“Hello…..Mark? It seems that I am not the only one who finds you disgusting. who beat you up like this? “ Ethan sneered as he looked at his face full of scars and then continued “ I must thank that person because you are an idiot .”“Cut to the chase, Ethan. As you can see, I don’t look so well. I might faint and go in to a coma again. So, watch your next words carefully. We don’t like each other and whoever beat me is none of my business. What do yo
“I will do this and more. I know that Vivian will never hurt my baby. She will never get on your bad side so I am completely sure that we will find him safe and sound. Even if it hurts me every second and minute that I am not with her but I have this Chance to get back Joy and I will do it.“Susie, you want to go with this man. Do I need to remind you what he did to you?” Melvin asked.“I will never forget what he put me through and that is something that one day we will have to square it out. “Susan insisted and Ethan looked at her softly.This woman was full of love. How did she even fall in love with a devil like him? He used to think that he didn’t deserve good things in life. Ever since she appeared ,there has only been light in his life.“Susie is right, let her be “Letty chimed in as Susan went back in to the room“Kindly make the video and send it to your father ASAP. I will do Whatever that you want and I mean absolutely anything “Susan looked at the man with hate.Mark laug
“Dad, she is going nowhere. If she leaves, I am also leaving. I brought her here and I have something to discuss with her. So, quickly give Ethan his baby. You wouldn’t want him holding a grudge on you. “Mark saidHaving no any other choice, Leonardo sent for Joy. The same maid that took her the day that he was here was holding her.Ethan looked at Joy with tears in his eyes. It seemed that Joy didn’t even know what was going on in the world. She was just young and innocent. She didn’t understand the evils of the world. Ethan caressed her little face and the baby stretched. He couldn’t help but smile at how adorable she looked with those puffy cheeks. “I came back as I had promised, baby. Daddy will take you home now. I will not let you out of my sight so that other idiots can lay their hands on you, my princess. I love you so much.”Susan approached him slowly and asked.” Can I hold him?”“Off course. I want you to be present in her life. I want you to teach her all the good things
Meanwhile Ethan and his father took the baby and left the Goven Mansion.As soon as he reached the house, he found Vivian seated in the living room applying nail polish on his fingers. He stood on the door with the baby in his arms wondering what kind of a heart Vivian had. Since the baby went missing, she hadn’t even shown any concerns.As if that wasn’t enough, she was holding Happy to God knows where. What the hell did he get himself in to?” How the fuck will he be able to live with her under the same roof?But he had to be patient so that he could find out where she was holding Happy.“Vivian, darling. I have a surprise for you. I have returned little Joy safely “Ethan said as he grinned towards her. Vivian looked at him while faking a smile. She then walked to him and kissed his cheeks.” I love you so much. You are my hero. I swear that I don’t know what I would have done without this baby. she is my life.”Damn fucking idiot. Did he think that I care about the brat? Just lookin
“I don’t care, all this talk is rubbish to me. “Susan snarled with impatience.“What do you want “ he finally asked .“Let me go and don’t ever bother me again or I will turn the evidence over to the police. I will tell Evans Griffins that it was you who sent him those images of me lying on the streets. I am sure that crazy man will come for your head. Don’t even mention what Ethan will do to you “she said authoritatively. She was so thankful to Melvin for helping her with the little bastard. she remembered that day that she brought the footage to her, she had told her to keep it and that one day it will become useful.“It is easy to destroy the evidence, you know” Mark threatened not willing to let her go.“ If anything happens to me or my son , someone will hand over the evidence . I am not joking here. You better make up your mind fast before I call the police because by then I will have to tell them that you are holding me against my wishes. What would it be?” she asked “Fin
At that moment a sleek black car stopped at the gate.So, this bastard has been lying to me all this time. I knew it when he started behaving lovey dovey as if he had a thing for me. I wasn’t sure about it at first, but when he started following me today, I knew that he was up to something. Vivian thought while tightening her hold on the steering wheel.The gate was still open so she could see what was going on between Ethan and Susan.“I will teach you a lesson that you will never forget, bastards “she muttered with hate and then drove awayOn her way back home, Vivian called Ethan. Since he was driving, he placed the call on a loud speaker and Susan was able to hear everything that was being said “Darling, I have a surprise for you. Can you rush home immediately?”“I am on my way “he said and disconnected the call.Susan felt that her mood has darkened. why the hell was Vivian calling Ethan darling? what the fuck was going on with him? Ethan was caught off guard.He hadn’t expect
“I love you “Ethan said as he kissed her passionately on the lips.“I love you more” Susan replied as they turned to the crowd while smiling with charm. It was unexpected wedding yet colorful. with the close family members available, they didn’t need any more witnesses for their love. It was just perfect the way it was.“Baby brother, you finally made it. We are so happy for you “Damian said with excitement in his eyes. “Today we won’t prank you or try to leech off of you but we have a surprise for the two of you “he added with seriousness on his face.“Oh…..please have you ever done anything for me without expecting payment . I am warning you, I am not in the mood for your craziness. I don’t want to be grumpy on my wedding night “he commented and Susan blushed.“Yes …Devil king. We have been planning this for so long because we knew that you will end up with her. She is so beautiful and goodhearted. We have learned a lot from her and every day we are trying to be good people. “Dami
Ethan sneered as he looked at her coldly. “I warned you to stay out of my life and to stop bothering me. Do you think that you can control my life as if I was a robot? I never liked you in anyway. Susan was and will be my dream woman until the day that I die.” Ethan added.“Oh…..You are so predictable, darling . All along I knew where you had taken them. Forgive me for fooling you but they are safe and the person getting married for real today is my sweet baby girl, Susan. I have to return to her everything that I deprived of her including the man that she loves. ““Susan, the real wedding is about to start. come out, darling “Ariel said and Susan appeared in to the hall with Serena and Gordon holding her hands.“Mother, you bought her my dream wedding dress?” Vivian was so startled. she couldn’t believe her eyes“Why not? it can’t compensate for the years that I neglected her but I wouldn’t have hesitated to give you one if only you would have avoided trouble “Ariel said as she st
That was when Susan turned to Ethan” Please watch over Happy and do not dare let Mark come near him. ” she said and hugged her mother one last time.” It was good to be in your arms, mommy. I hope that you won’t fail me and my sister in the future “She said as she turned her back and went out with Melvin.They went straight to the address that they were given. Vivian sent someone to take them to undisclosed location. She knew that she had to be careful.“Tie yourself with the rope” Vivian instructed when they finally met with her.“Vivian, since we are here, you can go ahead and release the baby “Melvin said coldly.“Shut up idiot. Just because you are here doesn’t mean that I have to release that little useless brat. She is of no use to me. She couldn’t even help me get back Ethan or even his wealth. I needed her to be a boy instead of a pitiful l weak girl. Why should I bother myself with her? Now that I have the two of you, it is my perfect time. The plan has changed.“What are you
“Well …. I will send the address. I want them to come alone. Just the two of them because they are not meant to be your daughters. I am the only one who should be yours. “She said and disconnected the phone.Melvin held her mother’s hands gently. She could see that she was in panic. The only thing that she could think about was that this was her family now and their problems were hers now. She would make any sacrifices for them no matter what.“Mommy, I heard everything and I will gladly go. We are the ones that she has a problem with and I think that we should not let our little Joy pay for it.”“Melvin, you can’t go, I can’t lose you again, sweet sister. Please stay, I will find a way to get my daughter back “Ethan said as he pulled her in to a hug.Melvin closed her eyes and said “Don’t be too clingy. Don’t you know that we are both evil and we always find our ways out of situations like this? If Vivian wants me then I will go. “She pinched his cheeks and smiled “seriously, this is
Susan smiled and kissed his lips tenderly “Yeah …you have a way of calming me down. I love you.”That night, Melvin couldn’t sleep. She just wanted to talk to her mother. She wanted to confide in her and experience how it felt like.There has been so much burden that she has been holding on her shoulder and she needed to let them go. She had promised the love of her life on his last breath that she will try and be happy.“We will sleep together the way that we should have done when you were a baby. I swear that I will make up for everything that you missed in your life “Ariel said as she brushed her hair softly.“You know, mother. I grew up in a loving family but I had a hollow feeling in my heart that I couldn’t explain. When I couldn’t take it anymore, I joined the special forces and was deployed on the border. I was trained as doctor and I did my work very well until that fateful day.”She hesitated and then with smile on her face she said “then I met the love of my life there. He
“Not so fast, you guys found our sister and you didn’t even think of telling us?” Damian glanced at the people before proceeding towards Melvin.“I have always wished for a doctor in our family so that she can treat Ethan. Sometimes, I think that he is crazy for real “Devin said“Anyway, I am joking. I will carry my sister in to the car. “Devin added with smile.“I will drive them to wherever they are going and I will be their cook for the night “Damian offered.Celia smiled as she looked at her twins. They were a pain in the ass but sometimes they were sensible. At least they were making a good humor out of the difficult situation.“Darlings, I am so proud of you “Celia sent them flying kisses as they made their way out of the hospital with Melvin.Ariel left but she knew that she still had one mission left. She will come back for Susan. she was sorry that today, she only had time for Melvin. Soon, she believed that the three of them will be together as one family. Finally, she had
Susan moved forward with tears in her eyes “Welcome to the family, sweetie. we met for a reason and I am glad that you came my way. From today onwards, I will be the one to protect you. “Susan said while avoiding her mother’s gaze.Then it was Ethan’s turn” Even though, I loved you before, now I will adore you as my sweet sister. we could use a female sibling in the family to keep us boys in checks. Remember that you can always count on me. Our family might be a dysfunctional one but we have always taken care of each other.”Melvin didn’t say anything as Evans too stepped forward and gave her a hug” I hope you will forgive me one day. I know I wronged you but I still love you despite all the things that I have done against you. You are still my little sweet girl.”“Dear, I am not your mother and I do not support what they did, but I will always be there for you when you need me?” Celia said and then Serena added” You are my niece who I didn’t know existed. Always count on me. I will l
“I accept that I was always a mischief growing up but I also suffered. It isn’t easy to live with the guilt of having killed someone that you loved. All these bad things that I did in the past was because I didn’t know myself. I was lost and confused all because of you, Evans Griffins. Can you give me back my life ? I lost my wife and child in the midst of all this. I have nothing just because of you “Mark chimed in looking distressed.“Son, the most important thing is that the truth has come out. So, you can start over your life and change for the better. I know that I haven’t been a good father either but I love you than you can ever imagine” Leonardo said with a relief in his eyes.“I was never a bad person. I only changed after people judged me for something that I didn’t do. I felt that I was really a bad person. So, I became what you intended on me to be ?” Mark said and then turned to Ethan.“You were supposed to be my friend and yet you turned your back on me. I told you man
Melvin pouted her mouth like a little spoiled brat.“It couldn’t wait until I come back home?” She asked as she opened the door and ran into her father’s warm embrace “Did you get lost along the way?” she asked as Ethan eyes widened in surprise to see Melvin hugging Charles Oliver warmly.Now it made sense why he felt so strange around Melvin. She was indeed Miranda. If that was the case, what the hell happened back then? who died and who was buried?While he was still staring at a daze Gordon, Serena and Ariel entered in to the house. It seemed that Ariel have been crying and she didn’t look too good.“Damn you people, I hate you all. Why didn’t you tell me that my daughter was still alive? I have been waiting days and night to finally apologize to her. were you waiting for her to die for real so that you can tell me? My God, she almost died the other day and I wasn’t even there to protect her, Serena. You couldn’t even tell me that she had already given birth to my grandson. Why?”
