Later that day, Rodrigo had brought a bowl of soup for Jessica to help relieve her with a few medications by the side. This time around she had given what he had said earlier on a thought and what he had said made total sense to her. She felt that he would have let her die if he was working for Claudia. "I'm fully aware that I owe you so much already, you have saved me from death but you shouldn't worry because I do not plan on staying in your house for long! I'm going to leave soon." Jessica told him while holding the left side of her tummy. "I have to see and take my daughter away from that bad egg!" Jessica added firmly. "You can only get your daughter back if you can already face that Claudia, and one of the factors that would make it easier for us is to have a lot of money, The daughter of Roman is very powerful, they have a lot of influential people on their payroll and business tycoon. Now, if you don't have the money to burn, you would just lose this fight!" Rodrigo told he
Raya sat on her bed when the door to her room pulled open. Clara walked inside the room sluggishly before sitting beside Raya. Soon, her hands began to rub the young girl's hair soothingly."You're still moody dear, you should forget about what happened. Your mummy Claudia was most probably just taken aback because she loves you and doesn't want you to get hurt, that's is the reason why she was acting that way." Clara tried to clarify. "But how come I have this feeling that she is doing and hiding something she doesn't want me to find out?" Raya voiced out. "Huh, hiding something like what? Wait, don't tell me that you actually believe that Jessica or even that crazy woman that barged into this house to brainwash you?" Clara asked. "It's just that I have been hearing so many versions of stories, and I don't know which of them I should believe. I feel frustrated and confused, I sometimes wished that my sisters were with me!" Raya said with a little bit of uncertainty written on her
Mitch had gone back to the church to say a little prayer but met the blind man from the cemetery. This time around he was so engrossed in playing the church piano. The minute he was done, she decided to speak."You play really well ,sir, I wish I had some money with me to give you as my appreciation." She uttered. "Wait a minute, you sound just like that kid who helped me when I fell before." The man had said. "Yes, you are right. That was me, you are amazing to have easily recognized my voice!" Mitch said with a charming smile. "I never got the time to thank you back then. Oh, by the way! What's your name?" He asked. "My name is Mitch," she answered freely. "It seems to be getting late, why are you still here?" He had questioned yet again. "You have nothing to worry about Mr, I'm used to it!" She responded politely. "How about you, do you visit this place all the time?" She asked while kneading her eyes slowly. "Not really, you know what? Sometimes, I move around from place t
The private room in which Jessica was kept wasn't that enormous but it was spacious to have so much air, she had been dressed neatly in the hospital gown and placed on the uncomfortable hospital bed while Rodrigo sat beside her asleep. Her eyes heavily and slowly lit up before she scrutinised her entire environment. "Rodrigo?" She called weakly. "Umm," was his simple reply before his eyes lit up. "You are awake, you know what? You shouldn't have left a while ago. You shouldn't have gone to Claudia's house, now look what happened to you!" Rodrigo voiced out not pleased. "I'm sorry, it's just that I honestly wanted to see my daughter Raya," Jessica had said while trying to get up but her attempt was abortive because of the blinding pain from the left side of her stomach. Rodrigo rubbed a weary and tired hand over his face before enunciating his next statement."Look, it's not right to be impossible in what you do but what if I hadn't followed you there or what if her guards had se
Claudia had just arrived at their resort which seemed to be guarded by a lot of guards and maids."This place is really beautiful," Clara commented, amazed by the environment."I'm so tired because this trip was so tiring. I'm starving right now and I'm sure that you all are also hungry!" Claudia uttered as she ushered them towards the dining area. "Claudia, your resort is truly beautiful and breathtaking!" Clara asserted, still astonished by the way everywhere peeked. Claudia nodded with a proud smile as the maid began to drop a delicious-looking meal on the table. After dinner was over and everybody had been shown their room, Raya sat down still staring at her meal without even touching it. "Baby, you haven't touched your food! Don't you like the food? Do you want me to have another food cooked just for you? Common dear, tell mummy what you want!" Claudia encouraged while lifting her chin to glare at her. "No need for that mummy, I just remembered my sisters Rose and Sasha, I ju
Jessica was being wheeled out of the hospital by Rodrigo, he had paid off all her hospital expenses and bills. Ever since their discussion yesterday! He had given it a lot of thought and he had made up his mind to question her about her beef with Claudia. "You haven't told me anything about your beef with Claudia yet. How it all started and how you had ended up this way," Rodrigo asked. "My husband became her husband," Jessica answered rhetorically."What?" Rodrigo uttered in shock."That lady made me believe that Travis went overseas and after that, she made me a slave in that place while she took my second daughter Raya, and right now. My other two daughters are both missing." Jessica explained bitterly. "How about your husband?" Rodrigo asked."I honestly do not know, I haven't seen him yet!" She responded. "Since you've got separated from him, you haven't seen him yet?" Rodrigo inquired yet again and she wiggled her head softly to indicate no."Don't you think he plotted this
"The thieves around there are very notorious sir," the officer who was uniformly dressed told both Ray and Rose. "But officer, we already gave you the description of the suspect. Maybe, you can do something about it, it's really important that we get that bag back." Ray had told him."You have nothing to worry sir because we are doing something about it. The police officers in the local area are keeping watch!" The officer explained. "You know what, I don't mind about the bag but all I want is my bracelet which is in that bag. Officer, that bracelet is very important to me!" Rose had said in a pleading way. "You should not worry because we promise to find that thief." The officer assured them. "Officer, just let us know if you hear anything or have a piece of good news. Okay?" Ray said. "Of course, I would!" The officer responded. "Ray, I'm not leaving this place until my bag is back. If you want to leave, you can go now!" Rose told him with a worried filled expression."Rose, w
"Look at all of this Jessica, inside this house is where the treasure is. They are guards here, and they watch over the place diligently! There is also a surveillance camera located inside and outside of the house." Rodrigo said while revealing some pictures to her. "They are also alarm systems that are updated, take a closer look!" He said, handing the whole picture to her. Jessica slowly stared at the picture one after the other intently and quietly. "Seems like it would be impossible!" She finally voiced out with a frown. "That's exactly what they are trying to show us, this is the exact way they want us to think and that is why we need a closer study on the loophole of their security system so we can go inside without them knowing." He told her firmly."But how, how are we going to do this?" Jessica questioned."We would have to train thoroughly. You are the only one I can depend on Jessica, I trust that you will do what is necessary, and you are the only one who can help me."
Travis blinked his eyes before speaking. “I’m sorry that we didn't get to spend enough time with you but please know that we love you so much!” he said dropping the flower on the grave.“Goodbye to you now Aunt Chantelle. Thank you so much for everything because you offered your good life to me so I could have a longer life. I truly love and miss you, Aunt Chantelle!” the little girl said, sobbing hard.“Let's go home!” Travis said to his family after they had dropped the flowers they had all brought. That evening, Rose was dressed up in a very beautiful strapped gown because she was meeting up with Ray. He had given her an address at which she had just arrived in. For a second she had doubted if this was the exact place he wanted her to come to because something had felt off.The light in the whole place was off, and it looked dark. She had thought of calling him but the light turned on showing the decorated area.Rose raised an eyebrow in surprise, she took a moment to glance arou
Travis slowly walked towards Jessica, he bit his bottom lip trying hard not to fumble with whatever he had to say. “Jessica, I know that I have caused you so much pain. I wasn't there for our children but I hope that you can forgive me because not for a moment did I stop loving you.” Travis said, rubbing the nape of his neck. “Remember the man who promised to love you all his life? That's still me Jessica, I want you to please give me one last chance for the sake of our children for me to prove what I’m saying is the truth,” he begged, she stared at him for a few seconds.Her hands slowly caressed his cheeks softly before limping and placing a warm kiss on his lips, and right after they hugged themselves tightly. “Rose?” the voice of Ray came gaining her attention.“Ray?” she responded before striding towards where he stood. “Rose, my father and I already talked, and he had told me everything. He told me that nothing had happened between you two and that you were a good woman.” Ra
Ray was eating out with his friend Eric when his attention landed on a familiar face in the bistro.“Be honest with me, are you getting back with Stephanie because of your mother or because you are still very much hurt by what Rose had done?” Eric questioned.Before he could say anything, Blake trudged toward where they are and that had pissed him off. Ray stood up from where he was seating, he grabbed Blake by the collar before punching him very hard in the face.“What are you doing here?” Ray yelled out angrily while his friend tried to pull him away. “Bro take it easy!” Eric said trying to hold him back.“Let's go of me!” Ray said, furiously. Blake on the other hand seemed to be recovering from the punch, he placed a finger at the side of his lips.“I didn't come here to pick a fight with you, I came here to make amends after I noticed you sitting here. I just want you to know that Rose didn't do anything wrong, I have known her to be a good person, and I know that she loves you
After Chantelle had heard what Tessa was saying on the phone. She slowly used another route in the hospital to leave without being noticed, she felt so much anger right now because Claudia had made them look like a fool.She got down from the taxi before running into the church where Jessica was about to get married. “Jessica?” she yelled out the moment she walked into the quiet church to see everyone seated.From the look of things, Rodrigo and Jessica had just stood at the altar to exchange vows.The murmuring from the seated crowd became vociferous. “Chantelle?” Jessica called in shock.“Jessica, you need to know something very important. It's Mitch, she is your missing daughter Sasha!” Chantelle told her but she looked beyond confused.“But how did that happen?” Jessica asked unsure if she had heard well.“I overheard a conversation between Claudia and Tessa earlier. They were talking about how they want to keep Mitch with them, Claudia basically wants to marry Travis so she cou
Their wedding day had finally arrived. Clara was still locked and being monitored by Claudia’s men, her men seemed to have brought breakfast for Clara who looked a mess.“Uh Marcos, isn't today the wedding of Claudia and Travis? Right?” she asked. “Yes, and the same wedding as Jessica and Rodrigo.” Marco had said and that had made Clara chuckle.“Seriously, those women are two crazy fools. Who would have thought that they would be getting married on the same day?” Clara uttered.“Um, what time is the wedding ceremony?” Clara questions further.“From what I heard, it’s happening later in the day by Two PM,” Marcos informed.“Can you please tell me the church where it would be held!” Clara asked, while she slowly pulled the iron from behind without him noticing.He was going to respond but she was quick to hit him with the iron on the head causing him to hit the floor. “Why haven’t I done this since? I’m coming for you Claudia, and I would make you pay for what you did to me!” Clara s
“Mitch, have you been there the whole time?” Claudia asked in a little hint of panic.“No, I just got here because I have been willing to apologize to you because I can be a little hard-headed sometimes. I’m truly sorry about that, and also I would like to thank you for taking very good care of me.” Mitch said with so much appreciation in her voice.“It's nothing Mitch, and I understand where you are coming from but what I really want for you is to be happy all the time because starting from today, I’m your new mummy!” Claudia told the little girl.“Thank you so much again!” Mitch said with a smile.“Alright then, why don't you go to Lisa’s room, you can play with her!” Claudia urged as the little girl nodded before leaving. “See that Clara, the kid almost caught us. Don't you dare do that again?” Claudia said with clenched teeth.“Why are you blaming me, Claudia? I was only borrowing money from you, why don't you just hand me the money so that I could leave!” Clara voiced.Claudia s
“What? You are telling me that June and Larry weren't Mitch's legitimate parents?” Claudia asked, surprised like she was hearing this for the first time.“That's right, Mitch heard the conversation between those two and tried to escape. It was a good thing that Raya, Jessica, and I had gone there!” Travis muttered while tucking both his hands in his pocket.“Uhmm but how comes was the DNA positive? I mean, the result that was shown to us clearly told us that they were related.” Claudia said with a stunned expression.“That was exactly what I couldn't place or understand. It made me wonder as well!” Travis spoke up.“Well, obviously the DNA test was fake, and I want to get to the bottom of this,” Travis said.“I would like to use the restroom real quick!” Travis said before leaving both Claudia and Mitch together. “Love, why do you seem so sad?” Claudia asked the moment she sat close to the little girl. “I was only thinking about my real parent, and who my real father and mother are.
“Hey, why do you look so happy even though Travis had completely left your home? Let me guess, is his annulment final?” Tessa asked her friend.“He is as good as annulled and by the look of things, I’m slowly getting the trust of Travis because he had told me earlier today that he would think about us getting married again, isn't that wonderful?” Claudia said giggling happily.“He truly said that, I think that I’m impressed!” Tessa comments. “Cheers!” Tessa said clinging her glass with Claudia’s.“Cheers,” Claudia responded doing exactly the same thing.“You know what, I’m truly amazed by how you are Claudia. Imagine, you were able to manipulate the DNA test that was meant for Mitch.” Tessa said shrugging her shoulder casually. “Of course, all it took was my money to have everyone in the hospital do what I want. Everyone nowadays can be swayed by money,” Claudia said. sipping from her cup. “You are right and now you are even getting closer to taking Mitch far away from Travis and M
“Attorney, there is this matter that I’ve been willing to ask. Is it okay if the both of us talk about it in private?” Rodrigo asked the Attorney who nodded. “Why don't we go over there?” the attorney said.“Jessica, can you please excuse me for a bit?” Rodrigo inquired, she nodded slightly before kissing her forehead softly. Jessica was going through the file while Rodrigo was away but the next voice had gotten her attention.“Jessica, I thought you had already left?” Travis asked taking a seat opposite her. “No, Rodrigo is still speaking with the attorney!” she informed. “I honestly didn't know that the hearing would take this long,” Travis said.“It's a good thing that I didn't bring the children. Were you able to visit Mitch?” Jessica questioned.“No, but I was able to visit their house yesterday. Larry had said that Mitch and her mother went to the mall but I honestly plan on visiting them tomorrow!” Travis explained.“Would you mind taking our daughters with you? You know wh
