Chapter 50"Search every corner of this mansion! Don't stop until you see Rhea and her adoptive daughter!" shouted Ramon."Yes, your majesty!" his people responded.Ramon is currently in the basement. The two rooms in the basement almost looked like a garbage can when he threw every item in it. He was very disappointed because Rhea was not there."Galvez," Ramon whispered. He immediately took out his cell phone and called his intel.{"The number you have dialed is either unattended or out of coverage area, please try again later."}Ramon called Galvez's number again. His face turned red when the operator answered his call again."ShiT!" Ramon shouted in annoyance. He looked up at the ceiling. "Couldn't Ythan have discovered my plan? Couldn't he…he already killed Galvez?" He shook his head. "No. He probably couldn't kill the person he was with since he was just an ordinary policeman," he said.Ramon looked at the scattered broken frames on the floor. Ythan almost filled the walls of th
Chapter 51A bullet hit Ramil in his right arm. His blood was still flowing from it. Two minutes after Ythan clicked the gun, the police immediately responded. They immediately applied first aid to him."YOU HAVE NO CONSCIENCE! IF IT WASN'T FOR ME YOU WOULD BE ASHES FOR A LONG TIME!" Ythan shouted furiously. He was caught in the act so he couldn't deny his crime anymore."Conscience? Ha! Are you kidding me? You're the reason why I became separated from my family! Did you think we didn't already know? You're the real arsonist! You're never satisfied, you animal! You even cheated on your wife! You made her believe that Freya and I are dead! Now, tell me, do I need to repay your said kindness?” Ramil snorted. If his hand wasn't bleeding and aching, he would have punched Ythan earlier."Do you think you can put me in jail? I can afford to pay bail!" Ythan laughed out loud."Bail? As far as I know, the kidnapping case isn't bailable! Besides, you won't be facing just one case. I will make
Chapter 52La Niños Group of CompaniDiana was restless. She had been pacing while nibbling on a ballpoint pen. She still couldn't believe what she was seeing even thoughs he told her dad about it. She was about to call Jacob and Freya when her cell phone suddenly died. She forgot to charge it."Ma’am Diana, are you going to tell me where Mommy Freya is?" Yael asked. His gaze followed Diana's every move.Diana walked closer to Yael. She carefully knelt down to touch his face. She squeezed her nephew's cheek."Ouch!" Yael suddenly shouted."I'm sorry, Yael." Diana looked carefully at every corner of his face. She's looking for possible stitches or marks of surgery. When she saw nothing, she covered her mouth with both of her hands. "Oh my God! It's really true! You're Yael! My missing niece!" She was stunned for a moment because of the last word that came out of her mouth."Niece? Am I your niece, Ma’am Diana? Are you related to my mother or to my father?" Yael asked quickly.Diana clo
Chapter 53"WHAT? WHY DID YOU JUST SAY IT NOW?" Jacob shouted furiously.["I'm sorry, Sir Jaco–"]"SORRY AGAIN? SET! YOU KNOW DAD'S CONDITION IS NOT THAT GOOD! WHY DID YOU LET…WHERE ARE YOU? I'LL COME TO YOU RIGHT NOW!" Jacob's vein almost comes out of his neck. He is holding his hair. His eyes were filled with worry.["We're about to board a plane—"]"FÚCK! WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL ME IMMEDIATELY?" Jacob punched the air.["Senior said that he will be the one to call you."]"And you believed it? Damn! I'm going to the Mayo Clinic. I'm going to talk to papa's doctor. After that, I'll follow you right away in the Philippines. Never leave papa, Setyembre! You know how I transform when I get enraged," said Jacob.["Don't worry, Sir Jacob. I will take care of senior."]"Just make sure, Set! Make sure!" Annoyed, Jacob hung up the call. "Papa is so stubborn!" He quickly answered the call when suddenly his cell phone rang. "PLEASE TELL ME THAT YOU MISSED YOUR FLIGHT!" he said, hopefully.["Your Ma
Chapter 54Freya gently moved her neck as she felt it ache. She held her neck and slowly opened her eyes. She was stunned for a few minutes before turning her eyes to where she was. After she remembered what happened, she immediately became alert. From the ceiling, she looked down at her feet. They are tied. Her waist is the same. Only her hands were free. She tried to untie the ropes but she failed. She was able to move her hands freely...the case was that her legs and waist were too firmly and tightly tied to the seat she was sitting on. She closed her eyes tightly."What are you going to do now, Freya? How are you going to get out of this place alive?" she said to herself.Freya tried to stand but she always failed. Her stomach hurts because the rope around her waist catches it every time she tries to stand up. She looked around the room again. There are no windows but it is air-conditioned. There is a table near the door and there is also a chair. Other than that, nothing else."Y
Chapter 55"WHAT? YTHAN ESCAPED?" Ramon shouted as he made his way down the stairs. He was talking to Tamahome on his cell phone. He's just below, waiting for him to come down. He looked in the direction of Ramil and Rhea. He took them home to his mansion so he could ensure the safety of the two. He hung up and hurried down the stairs. He blushed when he saw Tamahome. Disappointment was evident on his face."I'm sorry, your majesty. Ythan's men were waiting for the car of my colleagues. Unfortunately, my friends were shot in the head and chest during the encounter. Three policemen were killed by his men. ," Tamahome reported. He clenched his hands in anger. One of those who died in the encounter was his close friend.Ramon put on his coat. He took his cigarette from his pocket and lit one. He looked again in the direction of Ramil and Rhea. They held hands while looking at him."Regarding Ythan's escape, there is nothing we can do. What happened has already happened," Ramon said to To
Chapter 56"How is Freya? Did you manage to feed her?" Ythan asked as he looked into the void."Yes. She already ate," answered Jackson."You can use her to get revenge on your half-brother. You can claim Freya. You love her so much, aren't you?" Ythan said smiling.Jackson just smiled. "You don't have to remind me. I will do that tonight," he said.Ythan patted Jackson on the back. "That's my boy! Jacob tried to end your life in prison, maybe it's not bad if you taste the girl he loves the most...the girl he cares for the most." He lit a cigarette. He smoked it and blew the smoke at Jackson.Jackson coughed. "I really didn't think my brother wanted to kill me." He looked at Ythan evilly. His face was serious as he looked at him. Later on, he laughed."You abducted his son. That's enough reason to get back to you. Another thing, if you vanish on his way...he will be able to steal the Grays' wealth alone," Ythan said. He looked away.‘Does this idi0t really think that I believe what he
Chapter 57Jackson's every step was big as he glanced around. He doesn't want to be complacent because he knows Ythan is smart. He could hear his heart beating and his breathing. It's very quiet in the area. Along with the sunset is the departure of Ythan and his crew. To make sure that Ythan fulfilled their talk, he secretly followed him until he got into a car and left their hideout."They're gone. Freya, I'm coming to save you now. We will escape this place together," Jackson uttered as he strode towards Freya's location.As Jackson made his way to the woman he loved, he gradually remembered the past.***Flashback***"Why are you crying?" The girl stopped talking and sat next to the young Jackson. "Are you lost? Don't cry. Here, use my handkerchief first," said the girl.Jackson stared at the handkerchief for a long time before he took it. "Thank you," he said while wiping his tears."By the way, I’m Eya. What's your name?" She extended her hand to the boy next to her.Jackson frow
EndingFREYA'S POVA week after Jacob proposed to me, we immediately flew to Balesin Island for a vacation. We have been here on the island for two days and I can say that it is really beautiful here. Yael, Diana and Hulyo are with us. Papa couldn't come because he had a schedule for a check-up in Florida. Mommy Rhea and Daddy Ramil are busy in doing island hopping activity in El Nido. It looks like I will have a younger sibling soon. Kidding aside, I'm happy for my parents. I can feel their overflowing love for each other.Jacob booked the whole Costa Del Sol. As explained by the staff, Costa Del Sol means "coast of the sun". It features Spanish colonial architecture with arched thresholds, stucco walls, and manicured courtyards. There are six casas in it – Estepona, Fuengirola, Malaga, Marbella, Ronda , and Torremolinos. Diana and Hulyo stayed at Casa Marbella. We are now at Casa Torremolinos. Wherever Casa we're in, we can still have a picturesque view of the Pacific Ocean.I turne
Chapter 72"Yael." Freya ran to her sleeping son and kissed him on the forehead. Abundant tears flowed from her eyes as she watched her son with a smile. "Son..." She was about to wipe her tears when Jacob suddenly wiped her with the handkerchief he was holding. She looked up at Jacob. "Thank you," she tried to say."She's still mad." Jacob murmured as he smiled.Freya heard that but ignored it. She caressed Yael's hair and stared at his son’s face again as he slept soundly."Son, I'm sorry. I'm sorry if I left you in the car that day. If I hadn't left you, all the things you experienced wouldn't have happened to you. Forgive mommy." Freya kissed Yael again on the forehead. "I'm also sorry if they made me believe you were dead. I'm sorry if I didn't even find you. Son, mommy is just starting to look for you but God gave you to me right away. He's so kind, isn't he? Even though I forgot to pray , went to church, asked for forgiveness for my wrongdoings...He still loves me. I don't know
Chapter 71**P-Pop music playing**One of Jacob's hands gently held Freya's hand as he drove towards where Yael and Diana were. They have already visited Jackson and are now currently being watched by the police."Do you still plan to file a case against Kuya Jackson? Tito Ramon has already withdrawn the cases he filed. I'm just asking because there are policemen guarding outside his room." Freya glanced at Jacob's face. She didn't speak for several minutes.Jacob questioned his wife back "If you are asked, will you still sue him? What he did had a bigger impact on you because you witnessed Yael's growth. You've been together through ups and downs. Whatever you decide, I am going to respect it.” He tightened his grip on Freya's hand."I will think about it. Right now I'm still a bit confused. He did everything to save me but he also did everything to harm our son. Let me weigh it." Freya removed her hand from Jacob's grip but her husband immediately grabbed it as well.A few minutes o
Chapter 70"Who are yo—" Freya's eyes widened when Ramon hugged her. She tried to remove his embrace but she couldn't let go."Thank God, you're safe!" Ramon closed his eyes while hugging Freya.Freya glared at Jacob who now wasn't even complaining that there was another man, worse, an older man who was after her. "Excuse me. Who are you?" she asked after she got out of Ramon's embrace."I'm sorry, Freya. I was just too happy. Do you really not remember me?" asked Ramon.Freya frowned. "I don't think so," she said.Ramon smiled."Wait! You look familiar!" Freya thought."I'm your Tito Ramon! I'm the brother of your Father Ramil," Ramon said directly.Freya's eyes widened. She brought her eyes closer to Ramon's face. Later, she was jumping when she confirmed that he was indeed his Tito. "My God! Tito Ramon! I didn't recognize you right away! I mean, look at you now! You're a well-established man! How are you? You've been gone for a long time! I've been looking for you for a long time s
Chapter 69Uno and Dos hid Freya behind them. They went to the building together and thought of surprising their boss."Those smiles of yours are scary, Uno and Dos. You're giving me false hope." Jacob forced himself to stand on his own two feet. He freed himself from the grip of Setyembre and Hulyo."Why are you crying, your majesty?" Uno asked.Jacob smiled and looked up. Fortunately, it is raining. His tears were not obvious but because of his broken voice, Uno and Dos knew that he was crying."Who says I'm crying? I'm not weak," Jacob said."Your majesty, people who cry are not weak. When did crying become the basis of being strong? It's okay to cry when the pain is too much... when the problems are piled up. It's one of our ways to release stress, pressure, anger, disappointments and even prayers at the same time. Crying in front of other people does not diminish our masculinity either," said Uno.Jacob glanced again at the other building that was still being consumed by fire. He
Chapter 68**Before the bomb went off**"What are you planning to do?" Jett asked as he glared at Rhea.Rhea quickly moved away from Freya. She swallowed one after another. "I'm just checking her. She's my daughter. Is it now a crime to check up on her? Besides, your boss will also release her, it's time for me to go with him to another country. Is there any problem?" Rhea said, without even blinking.Jett smiled and then nodded. "I see." He walked up to Jackson and whispered, "I'm done playing. Let's end this game."Jackson sighed and smiled.Freya and Rhea looked at the two in wonder."Did you get it?" asked Jackson."Yes…Kuya Jackson," Jett replied.Freya and Rhea's eyes widened at what they heard."What's happening?" Rhea asked."That Jett, called Jackson his brother," Freya murmured."They are siblings?" Freya and Rhea asked loudly as their eyes widened at each other.Jett helped Jackson to stand on his feet. "Our secret is now out," he said.Jackson walked up to Freya and remove
Chapter 67"Finally, Rhea and I will be able to start a new life in another country. We will try to have a child again. I will get treatment again." Ythan looked at his watch. "Twenty minutes is about to end." He got the two suitcases he had been carrying since he kidnapped Freya. One suitcase contained Rhea's belongings while the other contained his belongings.Ythan knows how to operate a helicopter. He checked everything first and when he was sure there would be no problem, he tried to turn it on."Great! Now, we can fl—" Due to the adrenaline rush, Ythan was able to fly the helicopter in the air. His hands were shaking while operating his private helicopter. He quickly landed the helicopter on the helicopter pad in the other building. He quickly got down from there. His tears rolled down his face as he knelt down. "R-Rhea! N-No! It can't be"Ythan quickly checked his pants pocket. His eyes widened when he realized that the remote control of the bomb he placed in the room where Jac
Chapter 66"Twenty minutes, Rhea. I'm giving you twenty minutes to talk to your daughter. After that, I will release her on the street, and you will come with me. Don't try to fool me or else... we will all be buried six feet underground," Ythan warned.Rhea bit her tongue to stop the bad words she wanted to say to Ythan. Her gaze shifted from his face to the remote control she was holding. 'Is there a bomb in this building?' she thought. She turned her eyes around to look for the bomb but she didn't see it."Twenty minutes start now!" Ythan said. "Jett, keep a good eye on them," he instructed before finally leaving the room. Jett bowed in agreement to his boss’ command.Rhea was looking angrily at the door that had just closed. Her hands that had been clenched suddenly opened when she felt Freya was holding her. A series of tears immediately fell from her eyes. She quickly turned to face Freya and hugged her tightly."I'm sorry, my child. We met in this situation. Mother misses you s
Chapter 65"Go down and fetch her," Ythan ordered his crew, Jett Jamison. He killed all his traitorous men and he was the only one left among the pioneers. He was smiling as he watched Rhea on the current CCTV footage. She knocks on the door while looking around."Yes, your majesty. Are you sure he didn't bring anyone or the police?" asked Jett."I know my wife. She can't sacrifice the lives of the people she loves. I can assure you that she came here alone. If she is with someone, you know what to do. We can't fight the police because there are only two of us. We will need to go if it happens." Ythan clenched his hands. "The bomb has been activated. It only means that they have killed all my men!""Alright, your majesty. I'm going to see your wife," said Jett.Jett was about to walk towards the door when Ythan suddenly spoke. “Have you prepared what I said to prepare?" Ythan asked."Yes, your majesty. Your private helicopter is on standby...just in case," Jett replied."Good. Now, g
