45. I love you Hailey's smile turned to a frown the moment Mason made that statement. Agnes immediately added her mouth."Hailey, your friend in elementary school, the both of you built a playhouse together, here's a picture of you two when you first played on it" Agnes opened a picture and passed it to him.Mason stretched his hands and Agnes thought he wanted to take it but he took a spoon and dished some soup for himself, startling both Agnes and Hailey."Aunt Agnes, you said elementary school so I don't remember. I don't have a long memory capacity" he spoke without sparing Hailey any glance."Too bad you don't remember her, you two were so close that you almost joked about marrying her," Maya muttered.Skyler frowned to herself, she wasn't feeling the appetite to eat anymore. What was Maya trying to do with all these?"Mom, stop saying all these in front of Skyler. Mason is married and he doesn't remember Hailey anymore" Ivy rolled her eyes.Hailey frowned at Ivy behind her bac
Mason opened his eyes to stare at her face. He was a little stunned and didn't know what to say but somehow he was very comfortable with it.He hugged her more to himself before closing his eyes and sleeping off too. ✬✬✬✬✬✬✬HOSPITAL★Jacob was walking back and forth, thinking about what happened earlier. There were lots of miss calls from his mother, grandpa and some of his cousins but he didn't have the strength to talk to anyone.The doctor came out of the ward and he gave the doctor an immediate look."Talk to me doc, what is happening? How is the lady, I hope she isn't dead" He pleaded, he really didn't want to have the nightmare of killing someone."She is not dead but she lost a lot of blood, luckily there's blood in the bank that matches with hers so her surgery will start tomorrow" the doctor said and Jacob breathed out in a sigh of relief."Thank goodness, please I will pay any amount just to help her get better, please" he pleaded."I can't promise you Mr Delgado but I wil
47. The plan "Alvin, how would you know if you love someone?" Mason suddenly asked with a curious look on his face.He was really ready to figure out this new feeling growing within him.This would be the second time Mason would be surprising Alvin with his strange question but Mason was the boss and Alvin had no choice than to answer."There are lots of signs, boss but as long as you feel happy and comfortable with your partner and you also see a future between you two then you are in love," Alvin said and Mason nodded."So why were you asking? Is it because of Miss Skyler?" Alvin asked afterwards."And when did that turn to what I'm paying you for?" Mason frowned at him."But boss you were just.." Alvin wanted to argue but seeing the look Mason was giving him, he kept quiet."I'm sorry boss, it's not my business, I'll get going now" he bowed a little and walked away with the thought of why Mason would ask him such questions in the first place if he was just going to end up with a r
Zach felt speechless, he wasn't surprised that this behavior was coming from Edna because she never put others feelings, she only cared about herself and what she wants and sometimes he wondered why he had liked this woman for years.He angrily kicked his car and released some breath before walking over to the Regina girl."Hi" he called dryly and she turned to face him."Finally! There's someone here, my car suddenly stopped moving and I don't know why and I'm in the middle of an important meeting, please help me if you can" she pleaded with him.Zach sighed and walked over to the car, he opened the engagement and checked some things in. Apparently Edna had someone unplug something which he plugged back for her."Try it out now" he said and Regina went to sit back in her car, she started it and it went.A bright smile formed on her face."It's working wow" she smiled and came out to thank him."Thank you so much, I really appreciate it, I'm actually..""Regina Wilson,I know you" he d
'Mason!!"Who is the woman beside you? "Is she your wife?"Will you ever take off your nose mask?The reporters were already beaming their annoying flashlights on their faces. Skyler hugged Mason's arms, she was really scared that she gripped on his arms a little, the flash lights were burning her eyes through the sunglasses.Mason didn't pay any attention to the reporters, his aim was to make sure they didn't lay their fingers on Skyler and he did just that till they finally got in.Skyler released a deep breath immediately, the nose mask felt so uncomfortable but she couldn't take it off because there were so many celebrities and businessmen."Bro, you made it in '' Ivy rushed from nowhere to hug then the moment she sighted him. "You should thank Skyler" Mason replied when Ivy pulled away from the hug then turned to look at Skyler."You convinced him and made him a cone?" She asked and although she couldn't see Skyler's face, she could tell that Skyler was smiling when she nodded.
YOU HAVE BEEN FOOLED"What do you think you're doing?" Skyler glared at Hailey when she suddenly locked the door and threw the key on the basin."Let me get straight to the point, I don't like you!" Hailey said darkly."Shocking news, I didn't know that!" Skyler faked a gasp as she crossed her arms under her breast."And I also don't know that you have secret eyes for my husband," Skyler added with one of her eyebrows raised up.Hailey smirked and moved closer to her. She stopped right in front of her and the two women were almost the same height except Hailey was taller."You're just a cheap nobody that only wants his money, just look at you, even if you go out like this in public, no one would know you for who you are!" Hailey said with so much exasperation.Skyler smirked and also raised her head to reach her level."But at least he got married to this cheap nobody and couldn't even remember his so-called childhood friend, the one he promised to ''' ' Skyler raised one of her brows
First Baby Gone Mason and Skyler looked around feeling shocked. The sound 'ha ha ha ha you have been fooled kept playing over and over the hall.Skyler hugged Mason tight and burst out in tears while he patted her back. Now he was starting to get concerned about the threats he has been receiving because it was getting too much."Boss, ma'am are you okay? I just got a call from Alvin about the bomb, where is it? Let me deactivate it!" Trent walked in looking around but the sound he was hearing made him roll his eyes.Mason didn't say anything for a while,he only stared at Skyler who had now passed out in his arms."The bomb is fake" he replied without sparing a glance at Trent.Trent looked around and his eyes caught the bomb in the cake. He rushed over to it and took the bomb, it was empty, just a stupid recording inside."Damn! Who the hell did this, so expensive!!" He threw the empty bomb on the floor."Are there any reporters outside, order all of them to leave" Mason instructed.
( Next time won't be a prank) This better be a prank to make her angry because it was working. She brought out her phone and tried calling his number but it wasn't going because she was blocked.She was really boiling as she checked the news again. People were already bringing her name into it, saying Regina was always a step ahead of her and they even had some fake videos about her reacting to Regina dating her best friend."Regina you're such a bitch!!" She screamed out.✬✬✬✬✬✬✬HOSPITAL★Skyler blinked her eyes slowly as she woke up. She saw a strong hand hugging her stomach and she turned her side to see Mason asleep.She smiled a little and brought her hands to his hair but he got alert at the single moment and immediately opened his eyes.His eyes softened up when he saw Skyler awake, he sat straight and leaned closer to kiss her lips a little."Good morning, beautiful," he said with a small smile."Morning" Skyler's voice was tiny and she wasn't smiling anymore, her lips were

Bonus 2 D•S STYLES★"Do you think it would work?" Hudson looked at the bunch of flowers around him as he was talking to Miguel."It shouldn't be that hard, just walk up to her and say hey Cynthia, I like you. If she says no it's no, if she says yes then it's yes" Miguel shrugged his shoulders."Okay it should not be that bad, I'm the Grandson of old man Mario, I shouldn't have a problem asking her a simple girl out" he slapped himself before picking up his flowers.He went to the unit where Cynthia was working while Miguel followed from behind. When she saw him coming over, she rolled her eyes."What do you want?" She sighed."I'm not here to joke this time, I am here because I wanted to tell you that I like it when we spend time together and I want to push it forward. Cynthia, will you be my girlfriend?" He brought out the flowers behind his back and asked.Everyone present was already clapping while Cynthia looked a little flushed."What do you think you're doing Hudson?" She aske
Bonus 1 FEW MONTHS LATER★Mason was busy on his laptop when his phone began ringing."Dada" Maxwell who was sitting on the table picked up the phone and stretched to him and Mason couldn't help but smile at his son's kind gesture.His kids were observant about things around them which makes him so proud."Thank you champ" Mason smiled as he took the phone. It was Alvin so he picked up the call."Yes?" He raises one of his brows, still focusing on his laptop."Boss I wanted to let you know the house is ready," Alvin said from the other end and Mason nodded."If that's so then thank you" After saying that, he hung up.After his second wedding with Skyler, he has been secretly planning to build a house to start a new life with his family and the only person who knew about this was the old man who was in total support."Dada, mummy?" Maxwell looked up at Mason."She went out with Scarlett, they are at the salon" Mason replied to his son."Salon?" Maxwell repeated what he grabbed from his
( Final )THREE MONTHS LATER★Everything was moving on slowly by slowly. Everyone was finally getting comfortable with themselves, especially in accepting that there was a new Delgado among them.Edna was the one who had time the most especially when she had a sort of thing with Miguel.Ivy just arrived at the police station after so long. She went to see Maya and spilled to her how much she hates her, when she was on her way out, she decided to pay a visit to Blake."Ivy, I thought I'd never see you again!" Blake said the moment he got to the visitation room but all Ivy did was to look at him in disgust."You think I came for you Blake? You're so vain" she let out a chuckle."I get you hate me now but I'm sorry Ivy, I regret everything I did to you please can you forgive me" Blake pleaded. Ivy stared at him, he looked like he had suffered a lot, There were a lot of bruises on his face and she felt really happy."I came to see if you've suffered enough and I'm sad to see not. You des
The prank The members of the Delgado didn't wait for the doctor to state the obvious from the look on his face before they began mourning."Grandpa can't be dead yet, he's a fighter, he can't just leave us like that" Edna cried bitterly."We are sorry, we did our best to save him but his organs were failing, and like I had said earlier. It was a fifty out of fifty. I am pretty sure if he was younger then he would have survived" the doctor said sadly."Then can we go in?" Mason asked and the doctor nodded at him.Taking a deep breath, the Delgado family slowly walked in. The monitor wasn't beeping anymore and there was a body covered in a white cloth from head to toe and they could already tell that he was the old man.Some of them couldn't move anymore, they slumped on the floor and began to cry. It was Mason who courageously and slowly moved forward.He slowly brought his shaky hands to the white cloth and pulled it down gently. Presented before him was the lifeless face of the old
( His Last Words) "Jacob!!!" Mason yelled with a terrified look but it was too late, Grandpa Mario already blocked the way and took the bullet for him."Grandpa!!" Mason yelled and ran over to where his grandpa was, even Jacob had to stop running when he heard the gunshot."Grandpa" he also ran to meet the old man who was now in Mason's arms.The police already filed the place with their guns. They were pointing it at Blake and Dylan."You two are under arrest for kidnapping and also women trafficking. You have the right to remain silent for everything you say would be used against you in the cut of law" the leading officer said and Dylan was still gripping his gun tight.Looking down at the bleeding old man, he wished he could just die on the spot so the Delgados could have something to grieve with.He slowly dropped his gun and the police came to put both him and Blake in shackles and then led them to the police car. At the same time, an ambulance car also stopped
( Bastard of the Delgado ) "Grandpa you should sit down, they tied a bomb around Ivy" Mason muttered and the old man had no other choice than to sit down, Jacob also sat down."So you were a bit late dad, I just told Mason that I'm not his son but Blake" After Dylan said that Blake looked at the old man with a smug smirk."And are you surprised that I kept a secret? Are you surprised that I'm not the only one with a secret?" Dylan faced the old man with a smirk.Mason and Jacob looked confused, wondering what Dylan was talking about and why he was looking at the old man."That's right Dad, I saw the letter, I saw the letter she kept for you before she died. I know what you are hiding from everyone" Dylan added and the old man shut his eyes tight."What is he talking about Grandpa?" Mason slowly faced the old man."No now is not the time to talk about that, why did we start talking about who Mason is," Dylan said before facing Maya."Come on dear, tell them how you barged into
( Explode )DELGADOS' MANSION ★"I'm really scared for Mason, I think I should have just followed him when he said he wanted to go" Skyler couldn't stop pacing around.She had to feed her twins to make sure they were having their afternoon nap."And I'm still not over the fact that Blake has been the one doing all these. He came for dinner once and looks nothing but sweet so I don't get it, what if my new boyfriend is a traitor" Edna began wondering."And you see this is why I'm still single, I hate having my heart broken" Hudson pouted.Jacob didn't say anything, he was just leaning by the wall as he listened to them talk. His face only moved when Grandpa Mario climbed down the stairs."I already tracked Mason" he announced."I'll go with you" Jacob left the wall and walked towards him."And I'll stay with the ladies probably because I'm not scared at all" Hudson let out a nervous smile.Grandpa Mario didn't have his time. He opened the suitcase he was holding and gave a gun to Jacob
( You're so vain ) Ivy blinked repeatedly, she slowly turned back to look at Patrick, and to get surprise, he was also pointing a gun at her face."What is going on here?" She asked with a confused look, was this part of the surprise or what?Suddenly some footsteps were heard. It was like a person putting on heels. Finally, a female figure stood next to Blake, revealing the face of Regina with her gun pointed at Ivy too."Surprise," she said with a smile filled with mockery.Ivy still didn't understand what was happening. Why was her boyfriend pointing a gun at her, why was his ex also where she noticed a male figure sitting on the swivel chair backing her?"Are you a fool or what? What kind of you're being used don't you understand?" Regina rolled her eyes."I don't understand, Blake explain what is happening?" Ivy gave Blake a look, her eyes were already teary."You've been used Ivy, you're so vain thinking I would leave a girl as hurt as Regina just to date you?
