“Wait, that’s not true Rose. I and your little sister tried all our best to find you so you could be with her, I even sent an investigator to your town but he never saw you there! I looked for you for so many years but you weren’t found!” Claudia said holding Rose's arm to perhaps prevent her from leaving. “Then why did you pretend that you and father weren’t married from the beginning? I even mentioned my sister’s name but you had pretended and tried to fool me!” Rose yelled out at the top of her voice.“Because I found out that you hadn’t known about me yet, I didn’t want you to despise me without knowing the actual truth,” Claudia responded with a pitiful expression.“I know that you have nothing to do about this but we are all victims of lies. I also fell victim!” She added.“Mother told me something, you were the one who had imprisoned her abroad and that you were the reason why our family had gotten separated. So why do you think I should believe in you? Huh,” Rose asked plainl
Claudia poured herself a drink from the mini-bar. The sound of footsteps behind her made her twirl around to notice Tessa. “The maid just told me Ray was here with a girl, was it, Rose?” she asked, still trudging towards Claudia who was now busy sipping from her cup of drink.“Yes, Ray brought her here because he was asking for help regarding his problem with his parents.” She said taking a seat.“So, if you were to help him, how about Stephanie? She was the one who had lost a fiance!” Tessa exclaimed, helping herself with a glass of drink as well. “I do n't care about Stephanie because my only concern right now is Rose,” Claudia responded not glancing in her friend's direction.“You are planning something huh?” Tessa asked as a smile appeared on her face.“I’m going to use Rose to get back my family fortune from Jessica!” Claudia blurted out and that left her friend in a confused state.“Wait a minute, how on earth would you even do that? I’m very sure that it might not push through
Chantelle glared at the doctor in front of her with heavy and tired eyes while Mitch sat next to her. She seemed to be nodding at whatever the doctor was saying. “Tell me, have you felt this pain for a long time?” the doctor inquired. “Yes doctor, these past few weeks have felt like hell. I thought that the pain would go away but it only keeps getting worse!” she answered truthfully. “Have you been taking any medication?” the doctor questioned further.“I’m taking some herbal ones with my tea!” she answered.“I would suggest that you get a scan and blood test done. I think that would make us know the cause of your stomach pain Chantelle.” The doctor suggested.“Can you just give me a prescription instead?” Chantelle uttered politely. “It's your decision but I would strongly suggest that you do your test, I’m just worried about your pains and symptoms.” The doctor made it very clear. “Why don’t you want to go to the hospital and take some tests, auntie? I would come with you while
“Here!” Rose had said while handing Nora some papers that constitute their house bills, she checked her bag if the things she had inside them were complete and if nothing was forgotten.“Where are you going to? It's just too early!” Nora asked adjusting the while inked papers in her hands carefully.“I’m off to speak to Raya because we have something to discuss and clear things among ourselves, aunt Claudia keeps saying things differently and I want all three of us to meet up and talk!” Rose responded as she applied some lip gloss to her lips. “Until now, you are still not done looking for your Sisters!” Nora said, she pulled open the side drawer before setting the papers inside.“You know very well that there is nothing more important than looking for Sasha,” Rose replied as she took her bag for her to leave. The moment Nora pulled open the door, she noticed Ray.“Rose, your Prince Charming is here. I have to go back inside to finish up or I won’t get anything from the market!” Nor
Chantelle walked towards the kitchen area of her eatery to check on what they had prepared for today's sale but a short blinding pain at the side of her stomach made her relinquish her balance as she stumbled on some plate causing the whole items to fall to the floor. The sound of the breaking items only seemed to worsen the pain she was feeling.Mitch quickly ran down from the stairs toward her aunt. “Auntie, why don't you go see a doctor already? Your pains seem to be getting worse!” Mitch muttered worriedly but her aunt seemed to brush everything as usual.“I’m okay!” she responded to the little girl while trying to get on her feet again.“What would happen to me if the pain doesn't stop and something bad happens to you? Grandma Flora already left and you are the only family that I have got.” Mitch said almost in tears.“Wouldn't that at least make you happy when I’m gone forever? At least everything that I have would automatically become yours finally,” Chantelle told the little
The air after Rodrigo and Jessica had their conversation had been filled with silence. They both had been mute throughout their ride back home but the moment they got back to Jessica's residence, Jessica had decided to halt the silence between them.“Uhmmm Rodrigo, I want to thank you for your understanding. It’s not truly impossible for it not to happen but can you give me more time to fix these things!” She told him but he ignored her and walked away.“Hey, you guys are home?” Daina walked down the stairs towards Jessica. “Uhmm, where is Raya?” Jessica asked ignoring her question.“I truly have no idea because I thought she was with you all along!” Daina told.“I think I should call her because where could she be?” Jessica said, searching her bag for her phone. The moment she brought it out, she had dialed Raya’s number.After the third ring, she was beginning to get worried.“I have called and she isn’t answering any of my calls!” Jessica lamented a bit of worry in her expression.
Tessa had walked into her friend's master bedroom as they talked. “You did that? Are you out of your mind? How could you let your men hit you with a bullet?” Tessa yelled out loudly in shock and confusion.“Tessa, shuuuuuuu!” Claudia said placing a hand on her lips.“What's with you, would you please just lower your voice already? Someone might hear you and all the things I have done would be in vain,” she told her friend while she glared around.“What were you thinking of when you allowed them to shoot you?” Tessa questioned more calmly this time. “Do you think if I hadn't done that? The cops and Jessica would believe that I had nothing to do with this. If Jessica finds out, she might come for me while she brings the cops along!” Claudia explained to her friend. “She wouldn't believe that I had nothing to do with her daughter's kidnapping. When the time comes when she would accuse me, making the cops believe her would be hard because my life was put in danger and I had gone there t
“Officers, do you have any news on Rose Franco and her sister who got kidnapped?” Ray questioned the police officer as his friend Eric stood behind him. “Negative sir, we still haven’t found any leads to use in this case.” The officer told him but that had only infuriated him, “So, that’s all you are going to say? Keep on going around to get information. Officer, instead I think you should make another move!” He snapped at them.“Ray, Calm Down already. I think you should allow them to do their job!” Eric said, patting his shoulder.“You want me to Calm Down? How can I be calm when my girlfriend has been kidnapped by unknown men? You want me to sit and relax when I have no idea where she might be or what they might do to hurt her!” He told his friend while breathing hard. “Weren’t you the same person who told me that they are working on it? I think they are the ones taking care of it.” Eric told him not wanting him to cause a scene.“Have you thought of what might happen to Rose? I
