"A body of a boy was found this morning along the street of Espanya here in the small town of Monte Carlos. What happened to the boy was horrific because his face and other parts of his body were completely destroyed. These clothes and shoes were recovered on the corpse. (The camera shows the equipment taken from the dead child). Also noticeable is the star-shaped necklace he is wearing. The child is suspected to be seven years old. His body will be taken to the crime lab for investigation and to study what happened to the victim. In the meantime, we are calling on the public that anyone who recognizes these items to inform us immediately. Dean report—"Jacob quickly turned off the television and ran to his room to change his clothes."That necklace… I gave it to Freya when we were still together. I didn't know that she kept it after what I have done to her," Jacob said while getting his things. He stopped walking when he remembered some details that were reported on television. "Seve
"Doc, how is Freya? Is she okay?" Jackson asked worriedly after he rushed Freya to the nearest hospital."Mr. Jackson Gray, are you her husband?" the doctor asked.Jackson shook his head. "Soon to be husband," he replied."Your fiancee lost consciousness due to fatigue. I'm still looking if it is physical fatigue or mental fatigue, but in most cases, they often occur together. Have you had an argument lately or is there something else that often disturbs the patient's mind? the doctor asked. "We don't have a problem but there was one incident that caused her stress. She couldn't sleep at night, and then she didn't always have the appetite to eat like this morning, she just drank Energen and then we left straight away," Jackson replied. "So, it's mental fatigue. Is it okay if you tell me the reason why she became depressed?" the doctor asked."I have no rights to disclose it to you, doc. I'm sorry," Jackson replied."It's okay. Right now, her vitals are fine," the doctor said while
Jacob has arrived at Esperanza street. He quickly rolled his eyes at the people around him.“He’s not here,” Jacob whispered.He quickly ran to the medics because they were already carrying the body of the child he had seen on the news. Just a few more steps and he could see the body nearby, but he was immediately blocked by the police.“Sir, I’m sorry. You can’t approach the corpse. We are preserving any possible evidence. No one can even approach the crime scene,” a police officer said. “I need to see the corpse,” Jacob said firmly.“I’m sorry, sir, but we don’t just show the dead body unless you are relatives of the victim,” another police officer commented.Jacob clenched his jaw. He denied several times to Freya’s face that Yael was his son, but here he was and was having second thoughts about whether to say that he was the father of the child in front of him. He first wanted to make sure that Yael is one hundred percent his son through a DNA test. He knew there was a good chanc
“I’m Yvette, Freya’s half-sister,” the woman who entered Freya’s room introduced herself. “Half-sister?” Jackson chuckled. “You’re kidding, right?”“Nope,” Yvette answered sparingly.“Freya is just an only child and she’s been an orphan since childhood. You can’t fool me. Get out of this room before I ask the guard to drag you out!” Jackson threatened.Yvette’s eyebrows rose. She crossed her arms across her chest then she laughed devilishly.“If you don’t want to believe, I won’t force you. I had been searching for her for years, and I’m so glad that I finally found her... in that condition,” Yvette said while smiling.Jackson’s eyebrows met at what he heard.“You’re happy to see your sister like this?” Jackson smirked then he became more serious. “You’re pure evil,” Jackson said as he clenched his jaw.“So, are you,” Yvette replied.‘What the fúck is wrong with this lady?’ Jackson thought.Yvette walked over to the other side of the bed and stared at the unconscious Freya. She was a
**The Past** (Part 1)The young Jackson clenched his fists tightly when he saw his father kissing another woman. He endured what he saw and kept staring at the crooked door.“Thank you for your support, Vandolf. Jacob will be happy about this. He will be able to join them on their field trip,” Josefina said, Jacob’s mother. “It’s my responsibility, Josie. I missed your presence,” Don Vandolf said in a flirtful way while tucking Josefina’s hair behind her ears. He gently caressed Josefina’s cheeks and kissed her quickly. “As long as Jacob needs something, don’t hesitate to come to me. Jacob is also my son. We should share responsibility. Don’t stress yourself. I know and you know that what you earn from selling will never be enough. Money! That’s all I can give to our son. Don’t deny him anymore,” Don Vandolf said sincerely.“Thank you, Vandolf. I’m really embarrassed. It’s a good thing Bonivie and your son Jackson aren’t here. I don’t want to get into trouble again,” Josefina said bo
**The Past** (Part 2)“Dad, has mom been at the market for a long time?” the young Freya asked impatiently.“My daughter, your mother just left. Do you miss her already?” Ramil laughed.Freya nodded. “Yes, Papa! I want to play with Mama again,” she said.“By the way, my daughter... Josie’s son was looking for you earlier. He’s going to play with you,” Ramil said. Freya’s eyes rolled. “I don’t want to play with him, papa! He is a tricky player,” she replied. “He always thinks and feels that he’s handsome, but he just looks like a broomstick,” she whispered.“What do you say, my daughter?” Ramil asked. Freya suddenly changed the subject. “Dad, what if... you were the one who will play with me?” she said while feeling bored. “My daughter, even if I wanted to play with you...” Ramil looked at his one broken leg. He felt sorry for himself again.Freya was saddened by her father’s condition. “I’m sorry, dad. I forgot,” she bowed and said.Ramil messed up his daughter's hair . “What are y
**The Past** (Part 3)The curve in Freya’s lips quickly disappeared when she saw the look on Jacob’s face. He was all smiles at him while she kept on rolling her eyes at her. “Hijo, please put the bags here on the table. Thank you very much again, little boy. You are a very kind child. Josie is very lucky to have a child like you,” Rhea said while smiling as she put down the ingredients inside the plastic bags that she was carrying.“It’s nothing, Aunt Rhea,” Jacob replied.‘Aunt? Aunt Rhea? When did you become my mother’s niece? Hmm, wait. My secret crush seems to be getting more handsome,’ Freya thought. She stopped being cute with Jacob and frowned at him even more.‘He’s really cute, especially when his face is chubby. It’s fun teasing her. When will she agree to play with me?’ Jacob thought the same.“By the way, little boy, you have to be here tomorrow morning. Take your mom with you. Tomorrow is my beloved wife’s birthday.” Rhea stroked Ramil’s cheeks. Ramil’s face immediately
**The Past** (Part 4)“Mom, Dad, I’m just going to go see Arkie in his cage. I’m just going to feed him first,” Freya said. “Alright, daughter. Wait until Arkie finishes eating, or else another dog will fight him. I’ll just fix things here in the kitchen,” Rhea said. “Alright, mother.” Freya quickly hugged Ramil who was sitting on the chair. “Dad, do you want to go out with me?” Freya asked, smiling.“No, I’ll just be here. I miss looking at your mother.” He winked at Rhea who now couldn’t paint her face because of his cheesy lines. “Daddy is really … very sweet,” Freya said with a laugh before she ran out of their house. She looked at the door of Josefina’s house. Her head tilted slightly to the right. “It’s surprising. Miss Josie left their door open,” she whispered. “Maybe they just forgot to close.” She walked to the kennel of her dog, Arkie.Jackson quickly poured the gas he found on Josefina’s kitchen utensils.“I’m just going to scare dad’s mistress and then I’m going home.
