Stanley Corporation was one of the closest business partners of Donovan Corporation. It rooted from their family history being members of Uno triad through generations. Jonathan and Fabe grew up and trained together. Unlike Fabe, Jonathan admired her. He was vocal about his feelings and it was not a secret to the triad and their families.“Someday, I will marry you,” ten years old Jonathan swear in front of Fabe. Raising his right hand and confessing his feelings towards her.“Eww! You’re like my brother. Siblings don’t get married. You should know that!” Fabe scorned, knitting her eyebrows. “But I am not your brother! We are not siblings!”“For me, we are! So forget about your dream because I am not going to marry you!” Fabe folded her arms and gave him a cold shoulder.Jonathan was overprotective when it comes to Fabe. Every mission, he would always by her side and no one gets in his way. He would crushed those who dares to hurt her. When she was captured in Russia, Jonath
Beaten, Bryce was kneeled and restrain by Massimo’s men. Fabe rustle to him and struggled defending him. Fighting her father’s guards.“Dad! Stop it, please!” she begged, hugging Bryce.“He got all the balls to come here and questioned my decision!” Massimo yelled.“I’ll talk to him, just stop this!” Fabe cried, shivering in fear for Bryce’s life. Massimo stormed away, leaving them. Fabe immediately helped Bryce up and led him to his car. She took his key and drove off. “Where are you taking me?” Bryce asked faintly.“Home,” Fabe answered while driving fast. “No. Don’t take me home. Turn around. Take me to my favorite hotel. I don’t want them to see me like this.”Fabe quickly drifted around and took him to the hotel. She called his investigator friend and informed him about his condition. “Fabe, please. Don’t marry Jonathan.”“Why the hell did you face my dad? What were you thinking? He could have killed you without a trace do you know that!” she scorned, pacing in the
It was Bryce’s picture with Nova. The day she retrieved the stolen luxury cars and the day she killed Sunny Liang. Bryce passed out that day and woke up with the garbage collector watching over him. “This is what I’m telling you about! You’re busted and so is Nova. Dammit, Bryce! You two are being reckless!” Jim throw the pictures in bed. Bryce scanned it and remembered every picture. “Who would send this?” “It was clearly taken from the video camera. Shit! You’re going to get yourself killed one of these days, men.”Jim took out his phone and called someone. Informing about the pictures. “Who are you talking to?” “Frank. Stephen’s trusted friend. He needs to know about this before it blows off and reach Massimo.”Bryce also texted Fabe, but didn’t get any reply. He was thinking it could be her nemesis Eerie that was behind it. Other than that, he can’t think of any enemies that knew about his encounter with Nova.Moments later, Frank arrived at the hotel. He checked all
“Bombs!”Jim throw the basket out of the window and duck, covering his ears. Bryce crawled on the floor and took cover beside the bed. But after a few seconds, nothing happens. “Jim? Are you sure it was a bomb?” “I heard a ticking!” “But you didn’t saw what’s inside that basket? You just assumed it was a bomb.”Jim nodded and together they look out the window to check the basket. The flowers and a vintage alarm clock were scattered on the ground. “It wasn’t a bomb,” Jim clasp his chest, “False alarm.”“It was a warning for me,” Bryce uttered nervously and thought of the anonymous call. He can’t figure out the voice since the caller used a voice changer to mask the sound.Jim thought the same thing. But concluded that the next time, it will be a real bomb or a bullet in Bryce’s head or maybe in their heads.After the incident, Jim suggested to checked out of the hotel and transfer to his place. Bryce cannot go home yet with his beaten face and Fabe specifically asked Jim t
“Where are you, Bryce? I said come….”“Someone’s tailing me!” Bryce cut in, glancing to the side mirror. The car was still behind him.“Okay, ahh, I’m going to make some phone calls. Where are you right now?” “On my way to the Eleventh Street.”“Good. Just keep going,” Jim hang up and called someone. When Bryce passes by the Eleventh Street, a group of bikers came out in every corner and apposed the car. More bikers came out blocking the car’s way. Bryce took his chance and switched his gear, turning to an alley that pass through Jim’s building apartment. He quickly drove in he parking lot and ran took the elevator to the fifth floor where Jim’s unit was. “Jim! Open up!” Bryce knocked hard on the door. “Jesus! Bryce! You scared me. I told you it’s not safe outside. I’m glad you’re safe.”“Thanks to you. I know those bikers are your friends. I wouldn’t get away without them. Anyways, what do you want to tell me?”Jim click the recordings from the Country Inn and showed i
Dad! Can we talk?” Fabe interrupted Massimo in his virtual meeting with the triad members. “Later, princess. I’m in the middle of….”“I want to talk now! Please.”Massimo excuse himself and attend to Fabe. Lecturing her secretly for meddling in his meeting. “Did you know about the bombing?” Fabe confronted. “What bombing?” “Bryce. Their hotel room exploded. Do you know anything about it?”“I am not aware and why would you think I did it?” Massimo pulled her out of his office. “I was just asking. How about the triad? Dad, someone ordered to kill him and I want to know! You promise me he won’t be harm. If something happens to him, the wedding is off!” Fabe said and walked away. Stephen came in and was about to join the virtual meeting, but heard them talking. Massimo caught his attention and ordered to look into the bombing. “I want to know if the triad is behind it. I did make myself clear regarding Bryce. We can’t afford any complications right now. Don’t let your sis
Jim was dead. He’s got bullet wound in his head and chest. Cali found him on the floor, drowning in his own blood. “Stephen, he’s dead,” Cali said, calling his brother on the phone after seeing the body. Stephen reported it to his police friend and told Cali to leave the apartment before the police arrive.On the way, Cali tried to call Fabe and Bryce but they were out of reach. They are probably sailing far from Italy by now.“Who could possibly killed Jim?” Stephen mumbled, pacing in his office. Jim was a good investigator for the triad and knows everybody. If you wanted to find a person went missing on the street, he is the right guy to ask. Massimo initiated an emergency meeting with the triad to discuss about Jim’s death. He pointed an assassin on the lose to kill their men and asked the members if they ordered the kill, since he’s connected to Bryce Hamilton. And speaking of Bryce Hamilton, Massimo also pointed out the issue being connected to Nova and the possible rea
Fabe woke up to the sound of waves splashing against the shore and the pelican’s cawing cry as they feed on the fish by the sea. The white sand caught her eyes and the crystal clear water. She knew the place. That magnificent landscape and serene skies. What a paradise. Fabe breathe the fresh air. “Caribbean Island,” she uttered with a smile, “Caribbean Island!” She rushed outside and found Bryce playing with Liam. “Bryce! Caribbean Island? Seriously? This is your getaway plan? My dad knows this place. This is his favorite vacation spot! He will find us.”“Not if he didn’t know. We’ll blend in and live like the locals here. He wouldn’t know unless someone will tell him.”“Great. What an idea?” Fabe went back inside the yacht and took her big hat to cover her face. Anticipating that someone would recognize her. After bidding goodbye with the boat captain who were friends with Jim, Bryce took them on a small cabin near the beach where he rented for a year. Jim helped him l
“It’s a boy!” the doctor announced their baby’s gender. Stephen was so happy to witness his baby’s first ultrasound. Listening to his heartbeat was a music to his ears. He was crying the whole time. “Thank you, for giving me a reason to live, and be better,” Stephen kissed Georgina’s forehead. “When I give birth, would you be here?” Georgina held his hand. “Of course. Everyday,” Stephen palmed her cheek.“Thank you."Stephen called Massimo as promised to inform him about the gender of his baby. Like them, he was ecstatic, and delighted to know it was a boy. “Dad, will you disowned me of I tell you that I still love Georgina?” Stephen asked, turning the speaker on. Georgina was shocked to hear that from Stephen. Fabe squeeze her hand, “You are part of this family after all.” “Son, I know you love her. You can’t lie to me. I know all of you. Go ahead, but this won’t be easy, son. The long distance.” “I think I could wait, dad. That is if I’m still alive. Our only hope is the paro
"You're pregnant?" "Yes, with Stephen," Georgina took a seat, "I was supposed to tell her after the press conference, but this happened." "I'm sorry. I couldn't do anything for you. Ri….” "Ri?" Fabe cut in. "Ri, Irene, or Eerie. She is one. I called her Ri. My sister from another mother. Torelli married another woman after my mother died." Georgina shared her story with Fabe. Since they discovered her real identity, she has no reason to hide anymore. Irene had loved Bryce since they were a kid. When Torelli left to pursue his mafia business, Georgina and Irene were adopted. But they knew they were sisters and still communicated with each other. When Irene moved to London, she constantly discussed marrying Bryce after college. But then he married Fabe. It broke her heart, and she vowed to get him back. When Fabe left, she was the happiest to be with Bryce again. But she knew he loved her and was obsessed with Nova. Irene found out that Bryce was in love with Nova, who was also
Eerie saw the news. Georgina was arrested and detained in jail. Alessandra Dorso accused her of killing Gemma and Sophie Hamilton. "Dad, we need to help Georgina. Send her a lawyer or bust her out!" Eerie called him, demanding immediate action for her sister. "I did. They are also searching for you. That woman you commissioned to kill Nova failed. She killed their friend! What were you thinking? If you want things to be done, do it yourself!" Torelli snapped. "They can't find me. Moira doesn't know where I am, and Georgina won't talk. So I need you to help her and get out of that prison!" "I am doing my best okay? Massimo had ordered a thorough search for our family. They know who you are now." Eerie paused a little. "How?" "The investigator, Jim. He left a file containing all the information about you and Georgina, including your birth certificate. At least, that's what the lawyer told me. They have strong evidence against you and your sister." "Then bust her out of pris
The guard restrained Georgina and dragged her out. "Hey, let go of me! Stephen!" Stephen stopped, listening to her. "What is happening? Stephen!" Georgina shouted, fighting back. The guards are forced to handcuff her to ensure she won't escape. They took her to the waiting room while waiting for the police. The reporters filmed everything. It escalated and made the headlines after an hour. Everyone wanted answers. Massimo called Stephen. He was in his office hiding, crying. "Dad," Stephen sobbed. "I know, son. Your siblings will be there. Calm down, okay?" "What did you find out?" "Georgina is Irene's older sister. Irene and Georgina is Torelli's daughter. Irene and Eerie are one person, and she was the one who killed our Liam." His secretary knocked on the door and informed him that the police had arrived. Stephen nodded and ended the call. He told the guards to show them, Georgina. "Don't let her out. My lawyer is on the way. He's working on the arrest warrant," Stephen h
Alessandra was referring to the woman in the television. The announcement started, and Georgina was focused on the screen. She was introduced to the public as Stephen’s fiancé. Gerard took the remote control, and paused the recording on the tv. “Her?” Fabe and Bryce point their hand on Georgina’s face.“Yes, her. Georgina Stanford. Gemma found out her name when she was on the news as the acting CEO of Donovan Corporation.”“Is she positive that it was her?” Massimo said, almost choke his own words.“Yes. You can see her video recording ones my phone turns on.”“Oh, God.”Gerard return to the computer, and Sander’s app flashes on the screen. He click it, and saw what he was busy doing running in the background. “Ah, you have to see….”“We have a matched!” Sander prompted.Gerard showed Cali the match. There’s a video of his past recordings in his house where someone broke in, and left a brown envelope. Another video was when Stephen and Georgina visit last night. The mat
“Who is that, Cali?” Stephen was stunned by his reaction. “It’s Alden. He’s coming back to Italy,” Cali lied.“Stephen and Georgina are with you?” Jonathan asked, confirming the voices he heard. “Yes, Alden. I’ll pick you up at the airport.”Jonathan ended the call. Cali pretended that the call was still ongoing, and talk sweetly. He then ended the call with an endearment. He saw Massimo’s eyes rolled hearing the I love you word coming of his mouth. “Dad, whether you like it or not, his going to be my fiancé soon,” Cali said, annoyed by his father’s reaction. “I didn’t say anything bad, and yes, I accept your new self, but getting married? Please, Cali, I’m old. Don’t give a heart attack.”“Whatever, dad.”Georgina excuse herself to go home early. She wanted to relax herself for the big announcement tomorrow. Stephen also excuse himself to drive Georgina home, and remind them all for the event. “Cali, who called you?” Fabe confronted him. It wasn’t Alden that’s for sur
“What! How? Who took her?” Billie lifted a shoulder. “How did they know? Alessandra’s identity is classified, and the only person who knows about her is Jonathan, and us!” “Can you ask Jonathan if he mentioned it to anyone?” Bryce inspect the pocket of the dead man on the floor. “He won’t do that I’m sure.”Bryce showed the identification card to Fabe. It’s not Italian. He was from Russia, all of them.“Tell the maids to call the police. I don’t want to stay here, and deal with this,” Fabe told Franco. Franco went back upstairs, and instructed the maids to call the police and report the kidnapping. The maids run together downstairs. Franco started to the door when he heard a noise to the other room. He draw out his gun, and slowly entered the room. It came from the walk-in closet. Franco kick the door, and held up his gun. “Holy crap! Moira, what are you doing in here? I almost killed you!” Franco breathe out roughly, shaking himself. “Sorry, I was searching for evid
Alessandra replayed Gemma’s video. It was taken the day before she died. She was crying as if Gemma already knew her death was coming. They were best friends since high school. Gemma was the only child, and so was Alessandra. Gemma defended Alessandra from the bullies in school. Since then, they were inseparable. Alessandra recalled the time she last saw her best friend alive. There were loud knocks on the door that night. Alessandra was getting ready for bed, and heard it. Her maid informed that it was Gemma. She was restless. Alessandra led her in her room. Gemma was crying, pacing around. “Gigi, will you please calm down. I’m getting dizzy watching you. What’s the problem?” “Sasa, I need to tell you something, and I want you to record me with your phone,” Gemma took her phone beside the table of her bed, and had it over to her.“Hold on, why would I do that?” “Just do as I say!” Gemma yelled.“Fine,” Alessandra started the video recording.Gemma cited her name fi
“Oh, my God,” Cali gasps, opening his messages, and viewed the woman’s picture with her name, “We got her.”“Who?” “The woman who sent those rocks,” Cali showed Fabe the message. She check the picture. It was the same as the scanner. Her face was zoomed in that clearly showed her face, and her name, Alessandra Dorso.“Who send this to you?” Cali checked the number. It was new. “I don’t know.”“It doesn’t matter. Now we know what she looked like. Cali send this to us all.”“Copy that,” Cali sent the picture to the group. “How are we going to find her?” Moira was bothered how to find a woman overnight in that big city.Cali shrugged, facing her, and started to his room, when the number who sent the picture called him. “Hello? Who is this? And how did you get that picture?” “I’m sure you know how.”“Jonathan? Good riddance! How did you found about that woman?” “What?” Fabe gestured Cali to pass her the phone, “Jonathan? Where are you? We need to talk.”Jonathan didn’
