•ABIGAIL•

"Fuck," I cursed under my breath as I took a hoodie and covered my face.

I stood in front of a tall building and released an exhausted sigh. I was in Chicago, and I was sure as hell that I would be caught soon.

I hesitated to walk inside the building and find the person that Kathrine said would be able to help me until all the chaos had settled.

I took a deep breath as I walked up the stairs and asked for Caleb from the receptionist. She gave me a stern look before she directed me to his office.

"Hold on for a minute," he suggested as he was on a phone call.

I impatiently sat down on the chair in front of his desk and tapped my foot on the floor. I knew that Elijah wouldn't give up searching for me until he had found me.

Now that it turned out that Harper survived, I had nowhere else to hide anymore.

"Kathrine's sister?" Caleb asked after getting off his call.

I took off the hoodie that covered my face and nodded. "Yes. She said you'll be able to help me with getting a

    •DARLA•"You can't take my kids from me, Elijah. I don't care that you feel as if I kept them from you for years, but you're the one who abandoned me when I was carrying them. Those kids are mine," I seethed as we got inside a taxi in Montana."It's because you kept them from me that I think I should stay with them for a while. They deserve to know their father and be close to him." I shook my head as I looked out of the window. "We are getting my kids, and until I'm sure that they're safe, I'm not letting them off my sight.""They're mine as well." God, I regretted ever telling him the truth. He was going to use that line against me every time he wanted to have his way and take my kids from me. I didn't say anything to him until we arrived at the station. I hopped out of the car and rushed inside the building, eager to see my kids and make sure that they weren't harmed. When an officer came to assist me, I told him about the twins, and he didn't hesitate as he took me straight t

    •DARLA•Elijah kept snickering next to me in the car while I was trying to act all serious and avoid him. We were on our way to the airport, and I already didn't want to see him. I just wanted to be home with my kids and pretend for a moment that everything that happened didn't happen. "Are you really not going to say anything to me?" He broke the silence, and I rolled my eyes, folded my arms on my chest, and looked away from him. "Come on, I won't tell the kids until you're ready to tell them yourself. You know that I want what's best for them," he added.When we got to the airport, we boarded our plane and I was relieved when we didn't get seats next to each other. After a few hours on the plane, we finally arrived in Atlanta, and Elijah hurried to help me and the twins out. I then told the twins to go inside our car and wait for me while I had a word with Elijah. He just smirked when I pulled him to the side. "Listen, I don't like this tension between us, especially about my

    •ELIJAH•"Elijah, can we talk?"I groaned when I heard my mother's voice behind me. I was on my way to work in the morning when she stopped me right in my footsteps in the hallway. "I just want to make sure that you and I are good. I can't bear the thought of being in a bad place with one of my kids after laying one of them to rest forever. I can't take it anymore, Elijah, please. I am very sorry for everything that happened. But you are my son, and what happened between me and your father was never meant to reach your ears." I scoffed as I turned around and looked at her. "I'm not mad at you because you had an affair when you were with my father and had Harper. What pisses me off more than anything is your affair with a man young enough to be your son. Actually, I don't think I would've had a problem if that man wasn't my children's uncle." "I know, baby. I know that I messed up," she leaned closer. "But what happened between Anthony and I was nothing, but something that was meant

    •DARLA•"Well, thank you for keeping me informed, Anna. Please tell Charlotte that I'll come over and see her very soon, okay? I've just gotten the twins back and can't travel with them yet." "It's okay, I'll tell her, and thank you so much for everything that you did for us. Now that she's out of the hospital, you don't need to send us money anymore. We'll make do with what we have." "It's okay, Anna. I want to help, and until Charlotte has fully recovered, I'll keep sending you money to make sure that the kids are taken care of and that the bills are paid. You're my family, and I have to make sure that you're good." Anna sobbed on the phone as I went inside the house with Elijah behind me. "Thank you so much, Darla. I wish my sister was still alive to see how her daughter has been taking care of us. I hope she's looking down from heaven and is so happy and proud to have you as her daughter." "Yeah, I hope so too. Anyway, have a good night, and kiss the kids good night for me. I

    •ELIJAH•"Is everything okay?" I asked Darla when she walked me to the front door after dinner. Even though I had invaded her home and came for dinner uninvited, she didn't look as gloomy as she looked when she came back to the dining table. It made me worried because I wished to be the one to carry her burdens and loosen her load after everything that I put her through during our divorce. "Yeah, I'm fine. It's just been a long day, and I think I wanna hit my bed now," she smiled at me, but I still wasn't convinced that it was just that."It's okay if that's what you're saying. But just so you know, I'm all in. I want to be there for our kids and raise them together. I want to make up for all the years that I lost with them," I answered after she closed the door behind us. "That's good, Elijah. But can we talk about this some other time? You can't really expect me to put everything behind me and play happy family with you," she frowned. "You're right. I hurt you, and I brought th

    •SONIA•I stood in front of the mirror after applying my makeup and dressing up and admired the look before I remembered what happened with Philip. I couldn't understand how he could switch up on me like that even when we had a chance to run away and start our lives together. He was the only man that I had ever loved, and his rejection and betrayal caused a wound in my heart that I wasn't sure anyone else would be able to heal. I was devoted to him and loved him despite his family background and his standing in society. "Ma'am, can I come in?!" I rolled my eyes at Jaylen's voice outside the door. I knew the reason she came to my room. "Yes, the door's not locked!" I replied with a sigh. She walked inside with a huge smile on her face as if she won the lottery and handed me something in a present bag. "Your father said this is a gift for Mrs. Houston. He wants you to send his condolences to her and her family. He also wants you to tell her that he would appreciate a family dinn

    •DARLA•"Is she good to go home today?" "Yeah, you can sign her discharge documents and take her home, and please make sure that she doesn't put herself under too much pressure." "Yes, I'll do that," I promised the doctor. "Thank you so much for taking care of her." "That's our job, Miss Sullivan." The doctor nodded with a smile before he excused himself. After signing Amelia's discharge documents, I took her to the car and drove to my place. "Uhm... Are you going to get something from your place?" She asked when she noticed that we had changed routes."No, actually," I smiled as I looked at her and looked forward at the road. "Okay, so what's going on?""We are going home, Amee. Fuck, what do you mean?" "We are going to your house?" She asked, surprised. "Yes. You're going to stay with me now. That's not even debatable, so you can save your breath and just go with the flow. I don't really care how you feel about this anyway." "But you can't just move me to your house, Dee."

    •ELIJAH•"I think we have a new lead on Abigail. I just spoke to Harper, and she told me that she called her friend and the telephone registration was from Chicago. She can't go anywhere because of her ID." "In that case, I have to tell those guys to head over to Chicago and will hopefully get back up there. We have to find her before she escapes the country.""Yes, I've also called Diego to go there and try to find her. He's the only one at this point who has the power to convince her to do as he says if she wants to live." I opened the door to my bedroom and just when I was about to close it, I heard someone groaning in the bathroom next door. I was sure that Harper just left and went to her friend so that they would find a way to head over to Chicago, and my mother had her own suite on the third floor, so she couldn't be the one crying inside there. "I think there's something I need to check in here. Can I call you back?" "Yup, we both know you won't. We'll talk later when I'v

    •DARLA•"I think I might know who did this," Elijah replied as he got up from the couch. "I think with this new evidence of him trying to tarnish your name with nonsensical theories, we have a chance to get him in jail.""You know who did this?" I asked as I wiped off my tears. "It's Ethan, of course. Who else would've leaked the information about how you got the Millers Properties Lifestyle? Or how you inherited everything from your father and banned your stepmother and brother from the company? It seems pretty obvious to me." I looked at him and realized how much sense he had made. Yet again, I failed to see Ethan for who he truly is. "Then what now?" "I know how to get him to confess to this and also get him to get this article off the internet. So don't worry, I'll take care of him for you. He will never bother you again." For the first time in forever, I let down my guard and decided to trust Elijah. Even though it was hard for me to admit that I needed his help when I came

    •ABIGAIL•"Don't worry, I'll call you. Yeah -" My heart skipped a beat when I heard Diego on the phone when I walked out of the restroom. We were in New York and had withdrawn the money for our fake passports, which made it weird about who he might be talking to on the phone. He made my mind and heart uneasy because of his constant attention to his cell phone, which wasn't a problem until a few hours ago.'Fuck. He better not be cheating on me,' I groaned as I walked back to the bathroom and went to look at myself in the mirror and reapply my makeup. I sure wasn't going to let Diego use me to get a fake passport and then turn around and want to bring his whore with us. I had to make sure that he didn't even think about stabbing me in the back after all the things that he did with me and to me. When I was done patting myself on the back, I walked out of the restroom and found him waiting for me. He looked a bit agitated. "Is everything okay?" He asked when I walked toward him as

    •ELIJAH•"I want your best flowers and the best gift box you got. Make sure that they are as romantic as they can be. I want them delivered to the address that I sent you. Yes. Thank you." I hung up the call and sat down on my couch. I was in one of my apartments so that I could have my own space and also get my mission accomplished on time.After receiving a file from my private investigator about Ethan's fraud with his former Arab business partners, I realized that it was going to help me get him under my control, and also get him to pay for kidnapping my kids.My cell phone rang, and when I realized that it was Harper, I got up from the couch and answered the call. "Hey, Jason sent me a text that Diego called and told him that you found them. Is Abigail with you?" I asked. "Yes, she's here. We are still keeping her in our hotel room. Jason hasn't called his cop friends, has he?" "No, but they are waiting for something. Abigail has to be captured, and since they had a lead, it h

    •DARLA• "I can't believe that you had sex with Elijah," Amelia commented after I closed the door behind Elijah. I rolled my eyes as I turned around and walked to the living room where the kids were happily playing together. "I don't know what you're talking about. It's so crazy that you think I did such a disgraceful act with Elijah. I'd do that with anything walking around with a dick, but Elijah. My goodness," I answered when we got to the kitchen. "I'm sure you think that you're fooling me right now, but I can literally smell and see a person who just had sex." "Oh, yeah?" I chuckled after pouring myself and her a glass of apple juice. "Your pregnancy does that?" "Yeah, and your shirt is turned over." I gasped as I looked down at my shirt and instantly felt overwhelmed with embarrassment. I was so sure that even the housekeeper and Penelope saw that and knew what I did when Elijah was in the house. "That -" I sighed as I tried to think of an excuse. "I didn't see it

    •ETHAN•"Morning, beautiful." I smiled as I brought Meghan a cup of coffee in bed. She looked so beautiful, and I couldn't believe my luck in bringing her home from the bar after a failed attempt two nights ago. "Fuck," she groaned.She didn't look so impressed when she saw me. She got up from the bed, dressed up, and took her handbag from the floor. "I'm sorry, but I've got to hit the road. I'm sure we had a lot of fun last night, but I'm not the romantic type to do breakfast in bed, talk, or whatever you thought was going to happen." I placed the cup of coffee down on the pedestal counter and turned to her a little disappointed. She didn't seem like someone who only did one-night stands.I was even thinking that maybe she didn't like me as much as I thought she did when she came home with me. "Wait, what's wrong? You were happy when we came home and you seemed interested in me. Did I read all that wrong?" I asked as I leaned toward her. "It's not you, honestly. But I can't do

    •DARLA•"Say it again, Darla. I want you to tell me that you don't love me anymore, but I want you to look me straight in the eye this time when you say it." "What difference will make it, Elijah?" I scoffed. "It won't change the fact that I don't want to be with you anymore. Getting me the cool pink car, jewelry, bags, and shoes is never going to make me forgive you for all the shit that you put me through!" "Are you going to say it?" "Fuck you!" I snapped. "You left and abandoned me when I was pregnant with your kids! How dare you think that you can come back into my life, and I'll just forgive you as if you didn't leave me to be with another woman?! You're a motherfucking cunt, Mr. Houston!""I know that I lied, cheated, and divorced you on claims that Abigail was pregnant! I know that I was an asshole who doesn't deserve sympathy from you, but I love you!" He sighed. "I love you with all my heart, and nothing makes sense to me right now than you." He breathed.

    •HARPER•"Hey, are you okay?" I breathed, packed my bag, and took a sip of my lemon juice on the table. "Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just tired of being here and not getting anywhere. Abigail seems impossible to find." Alec smiled as he came to sit down next to me on the bed. "Don't you trust me anymore? I brought you here with me because I know that we can find her. I know Abigail and how she thinks. Chicago is not big enough for her to hide." "Yeah, and we've been here for a day already. We should be getting somewhere, but it seems like we aren't getting anywhere, Alec. What if she's no longer in Chicago? I don't think that I can stay here any longer chasing pavements!" I snapped and then sighed. "Something's going on with you. What's wrong? You know that you can talk to me about anything." "There's nothing wrong! Stop with your interrogations, Alec, and get me, Abigail!" I snapped again as I stood up from the bed. "I'm starting to feel like you don't want me to find your bitch anymor

    •ELIJAH•"This better be good," I sighed after answering Diego's call in the morning. I was sleeping when he called me at 5 AM. I had a long night and slept quite late because of a research that I was conducting. "I'm with Abigail, Sir. We met last night in Chicago and will be on our way to New York this morning for some cash. I just need a little more time before turning her in." "My sister and her friend are in Chicago searching for her. When you come back from your New York trip, please give me a call. She has to be captured tonight. That's how much time I'm going to give you." "Yes, Sir. That's okay. I'll make sure that she's captured. I just want to make sure that Harper gets back the remaining money that Abigail took from her." I got up from the bed and sighed. "Alright, give me a call when you're back." "Sir?" "Yes?" "Does our deal still stand? You get Abigail and let me go? You promised not to harm me or my family if everything goes your way. Please, I hope nothing wil

    •SONIA•"Hey, Mom. It's me again," I sniffed as I sat down on the carpet floor in the basement. This was where I spent some of my time whenever I needed to feel close to my Mom, even though I didn't really have any memories of her.Before my father had his life devoted to his work, he and I used to have a weekly tradition whereby we would watch videos he took with my Mom before she died. They looked so happy and in love together, which made sense why my father never remarried after her death. She was the love of his life."I know that we barely know each other, but I have no one right now. You're the only person who can listen to me without any judgments, and I really need to vent right now," I sighed. "Was it ever this hard when your parents wanted to get you married to someone else when you were with Dad? Was it this hard because they didn't want you to be with someone who wouldn't be able to take care of you?" I silently cried and wiped my tears before they could reach my cheek
