Derby stood on the side watching Camila wondering what was wrong with her. For some reason, she could tell Camila was just being dramatic but she could not say anything.

Ethan stayed with Camila till sleep time and he helped her to her room. Jacqueline saw Ethan helping Camila to her room and she was instantly annoyed. She came out of the room to look for Ethan after staying in the room for a long time without him showing up. She was not expecting to see Ethan with Camila. She went back to the room and sat on the bed waiting for Ethan.

Inside Camila's room, Ethan helped Camila get into bed but Camila continued with her little act.

"Ethan, my hand hurt," she whined

"So what do you want me to do?" Ethan asked annoyed recalling the doctor's words.

"Can you please massage it for me," she pleaded acting like a little girl.

Ethan held her hand and was about to massage when Camila's next statement irritated him.

"And my feet too," Camila added looking at him with puppy eyes.

    "Thank you, Ethan. I love you," she appreciated.At the same time, Isabella was heading towards Carter's apartment without the knowledge of Mr Garcia. Upon arrival, she parked her car a distance away from the house at a bus stop and decided to walk to the house. At the gate, she asked for Ethan and the security man sent word through one of the guards to Ethan that he had a visitor. Isabella was kept at the security as they didn't know her. Andrews was getting the car ready to take Ethan and Camila to the hospital as requested by the doctor when he saw Isabella. He had only seen pictures of her. This is the first time he is seeing her in person. Ethan soon came out the front door and headed for the security post. "You are?" he asked upon seeing Isabella."I am Isabella, Camila's best friend. Please, can I see Camila?" she requested politely. "Peter, please take her to the garden and ask Derby to get Camila," he instructed recalling he had seen her once with Camila before. Andrews d

    She buckled the seat belt and went round the car and got behind the while. She brought the engine to life and drove towards home. Camila sat down next to her with tears streaming down her face like waterfalls.Ethan upon leaving the hospital that Sunday afternoon, did not go home but he asked Andrews to take him to the beach. When they arrived at the beach, Ethan got out of the car and headed for the resort. He ordered a drink and sat down watching the peaceful ocean and the people having fun at the beach. Ethan felt relaxed from the afternoon drama. After staying there for barely ten minutes, a couple passed by with a two-year-old. Ethan stared at the little boy with his parents and he remembered when Camila announced she was pregnant. He didn't like Camila but hearing her say she was pregnant with his child, he felt different inside. Even though he was doubtful of the paternity of the child a part of him was excited. He shut his eyes at the memory of finding out Camila's child wa

    He headed for the staircase in silence. Jacqueline started rejoicing silently after Ethan went up the staircase but Mrs Carter was wondering what happened."What do you mean by you sent her away?" Mrs Carter asked wondering what could have made Ethan send Camila away. "I will tell you everything later," Ethan said downcast and continued climbing the staircase."Go to him and find out what happened," Mrs Carter said to Jacqueline who appears to be very happy."Please clear the smile off your face and be sensitive. We need to know why he sent her away if not we may be sitting on a time bomb," Mrs Carter said and the smile vanished off Jacqueline's face immediately. Jacqueline hurried her steps on the staircase. She was not interested before but now hearing what Mrs Carter said she was now interested in the reason Ethan sent Camila away. To Jacqueline, Camila was a threat to her stay and accomplishment of her task in the Carter family. She was carrying a child she claimed to be Ethan's

    Back at the Carter's, Ethan after the call decided to return to the bedroom since it was late. He decided to skip supper but upon putting the key into the keyhole he felt there was someone behind the door but when he opened the door, the hallway was empty.He stood there for a while and headed for the bedroom. When he entered, Jacqueline was already in bed fast asleep. He checked the time and it was only fifteen minutes past the hour seven. He was surprised to see her sleeping in very early as she would only come to bed after 8 p.m. He was also aware she had not resumed work yet as she told him, she took two weeks off work for their honeymoon and she had only spent two days of it.He changed into his sleepwear and climbed into bed next to her. He stared at the back of her head for a while before covering himself with the sheet. He placed his hand behind his head and rested on the pillow."Jacqueline, I know I have been unfair to you. I will fix that and give you your rightful place by

    Meanwhile, outside, Ethan, Olivia and Andrews were on their way to the Carter's hotel. After driving for forty-five minutes, they arrived at the hotel. They all got out of the car after Andrews parked it in the garage. Ethan led the way with both Olivia and Andrews thrilling behind him. In the elevator to Ethan's office, Olivia stood next to Ethan but just a step behind him. Andrews was standing the two close to the elevator wall. "What do I have after branch visitations?" Ethan asked "That will be all for today but a reminder that your wife will be coming around," she replied "Okay," Ethan acknowledged and the elevator bell rang indicating they had reached their exit floor. They all exited the elevator heading in the same direction as Ethan. Ethan and Olivia entered the office and Andrews stood at the entrance to the office. "Great work done on your first day. I must say I am impressed by your execution of your duties," Ethan praised and sat down behind his desk.Olivia sat on t

Meanwhile Jacqueline with her father were going through the documents that named her as co-heir of the Carter's inheritance trying to confirm if it is authentic. Jacqueline and her father sat down patiently waiting for the confirmation. After what seemed like forever, Mr Green's phone buzzed. He smiled and answered it quickly bringing the phone to his ears. "Hello," Mr Green said."Hmm," Mr Green said and Jacqueline stared at him waiting to know what the person said anxiously."Thank you very much," Mr Green said and the corner of his lips curled up.Jacqueline already knew the feedback was a good one when she saw the smiles on her father's face. "The documents are legit, right?" She asked."Yes, they are. Congratulations my daughter, you now have equal authority over the Carter's property just like Ethan," Mr Green said."Perfect, now we need to move on to the next step so I can get the hell out of that pris

She dished Camila's food and placed it on the tray.She carried it and left for Camila's room. She knocked gently on the door and entered upon hearing the response from Isabella."Ms Garcia's food," she said"Please put it on the table," Isabella said."Is Mr Garcia out of his room yet?" she asked."No, but dinner is ready," Asira replied."Okay, thank you, Asira," Isabella appreciated."You are welcome," Asira replied with a smile and exited the room.She went back to the kitchen and after cleaning the place she sought permission and went out of the house briefly.

She smiled briefly and exited the room to the kitchen.Back in the living room, Isabella tried to understand what happened to the lawyer. She sat on the sofa adjacent to the sofa Mr Garcia was sitting on. "What happened?" Isabelle asked."I was told it happened in the afternoon before I arrived. They are running some tests to understand what had triggered it," Mr Garcia replied."Wait, were you not going there in the morning?" Isabella asked recalling when Mr Garcia left the house in the morning, he had said he was going to the hospital first before he would go to the office."Yes, that was supposed to be the plan

    Ethan knocked and entered Camila's room and closed the door. The moment he closed the door, Camila came to him and kissed him. Ethan froze and for a moment didn't know what to do. She was heavily pregnant and pushing her felt like a terrible option. Opening the door was also not a good idea, what if Olivia sees them? She might misunderstand the situation. Ethan held Camila's shoulder and held her at arm's length pulling away from her. "Get a hold of yourself. I am neither your boyfriend nor husband. Do you go about kissing every man you are attracted to on the street? Have some dignity and respect for yourself. You make yourself too cheap and that is why you never attracted me and with this attitude, you will not attract any good man out there," Ethan said in one breath to Camila looking very angry. "You think I am cheap?" Camila said almost on the verge of tears. "It was one thing to be cheap and another to act like one. You are not cheap, you just present yourself as one," Ethan

Mr Garcia said."Yes," Olivia replied."How? I saw the image, I.....I....," Mr Garcia said alternating his gaze between the lady before her and Mr Carter. "Mr Carter found me and saved me," Olivia replied and Mr Garcia instantly became emotional.Mr Garcia covered his mouth with his hand and uncontrolled tears began to fall from his eyes. Olivia got emotional too and hugged him."Forgive me, my daughter. I didn't protect you as a father. I abandoned you and watched while people treated you badly. I don't deserve you. I am so sorry," Mr Garcia said while hugging Olivia."It is okay, Dad. I

    The next day, a Saturday, the news channels were hit with shocking news of Mr Carter being alive. Mr Garcia was sitting behind his TV when he saw the news of Mr Carter being alive. His eyes widened. "Isabella, come quick," Mr Garcia shouted from the living room."What happened?" Isabella asked as she descended the staircase into the living room."Look," Mr Garcia replied with his eyes fixated on the television set as he pointed to the screen."Mr Carter is alive?" Isabella asked in shock."So who did we bury?" Isabella asked and Mr Garcia shrugged his shoulders.Isabella sat down and Mr Garcia increased the volume to listen to what the reporter was saying."The city of New York woke up to an interesting news about Mr Carter the well-known billionaire whose burial service we held at the church a couple of months ago and later sent to the grave to be buried to be very much alive.

Everything works in your favour," Mrs Carter said and left knowing Mr Carter had come to get her out. Mrs Carter entered a room and frowned seeing the person who had come to see her."Who are you and what do you want with me?" Mrs Carter asked proceeding to the provided seat."Hello, I am a representative of Mr Carter. He asked me to give you this," the lawyer said and Mrs Carter smiled."Aww, my handsome hubby. I know he would always come through for me," Mrs Carter said and took the envelope from the man as she sat on the seat opposite the man.She quickly opened it to see the content. A white sheet came out and she frowned seeing the title on the sheet. DIVORCE.

    Mr Garcia was immediately shuttered. His wife will be in prison for 15 years. "This is all my fault. I failed to put my feet down as a man and allowed all this to happen," Mr Garcia thought unable to get up from his seat. He watched as they took his wife away to begin her jail sentence. "What does this mean?" Jeremy asked Mr Carter. "I don't have to do anything. The properties will come back to Ethan," Mr Carter said. "Jeremy, you and Ethan have come a long way. I know you had your difference from college but I beg you to be a better person than my son is. Aside from honouring a great woman, he did something great for me, I chose Olivia for Ethan because I believe, that with Olivia, Ethan would be a better person. Just forgive him and let's move on as a family. I appreciate what you did. Standing for what is right despite family relationship," Mr Carter said to Jeremy."It wasn't a difficult decision to take.

"With the way things are going how do think this would end," Jeremy asked Mr Carter. "Well, at least the side of Mr Martin and Mr Green is clear. My wife and Mrs Garcia may go down together. They worked together on this," Mr Carter replied "Will you reveal your identity and testify against your wife like you earlier planned?" Jeremy asked. "It may not be necessary with the way things are progressing but if anything changes, I will," Mr Carter replied.Just a distance away from Jeremy and Mr Carter, Ethan was also engaging Olivia in a conversation."I am so sorry for everything you went through," Ethan apologized.

    "Mrs Carter found out that Mrs Garcia had filed the case against her and Mrs Carter decided to teach Mrs Garcia a lesson. The kidnap was on the stage and Mrs Garcia was framed. The documents here prove, that all the payments made from Mrs Garcia's account were false. Exhibit D shows Mrs Garcia's statement from the bank. The two documents were printed days and you can see, in one document, the numbers were manipulated to make Mrs Garcia look guilty," Mr Wilson said.The judge looked at all the documents presented. "Council, what do you have to say in defence of your client?" the judge asked"My lord, thank you. My colleague presented a lot of facts with evidence to prove his point. I must say he presented a convincing story but here are the questions; Mrs Carter and Mrs Garcia had conversations on the phone had always been about the welfare of their children.

    Ethan thanked the servant and left for his room. In his room, he sat on the sofa in deep thought of everything his father had told him. Ethan realized when it comes to life and living it, he fails to think on his behalf. He rather allows close relatives to think of him. In his anger, he never gives the one who offended him a chance to at least explain. Ethan lay in bed recalling lots of things that had happened in his life and how he handled them. Unable to sleep, he got down from his bed and exited his room. He wanted to go to Olivia but looking at the time he decided not to disturb Olivia. He heads for the balcony. The light on the balcony was off and the city light was the only light providing some visibility to the balcony. He entered the balcony and found Olivia sitting on the chair. He sat next to her and took her hand in his. "Olivia, I am sorry for how I treated you when we were married. I never protected and never listened to you. I caused you more pain than I claimed to lo

    "Ethan, I am sorry for all the trouble I caused you during our college days. They were not deliberately done," Jeremy apologised and the two hugged each other. "Ethan, please stay and work with me," Jeremy requests and Ethan obliges.Ethan put aside his resentment towards Jeremy and they did a great job at the company together. All the guards Mr Martin brought on board to monitor everyone were sent away. The guards were unhappy but since they didn't have any contract with the company and the one whom they had a contract with had been arrested, they had no option then to leave. The operations of the company were placed back in the previous working system. Employees who were terminated by Mr Martin were all called back and compensated for the injustice done to them. While Ethan and Jeremy handled restoring the operations of the company, Olivia was tasked with handling the new client's request.It was soon 6 p.m. and Ethan asked Olivia to call it a day while he stayed back with Jeremy t
