Tatiana advanced slowly, her emotions in turmoil as she struggled to pinpoint how she felt seeing Jolene right before her.

"What's going on?" she finally managed to ask.

Jaxon stepped forward and handed her the device. He then explained everything. With each word and realization, Tatiana felt her heart slam against her chest. Her eyes widened as tears slowly welled in them.

Tatiana's jaw clenched as she shot Jolene a glare. "Why did you lie? Why didn't you tell me everything? Why did you keep it in? Don't you know how bad I feel right now?"

Tears fell from Jolene's eyes. "I was scared. Scared that you'd hate me and throw me aside. That hurt so much. But I knew the day would come when you'd find out the truth. I'm sorry, I just... I felt like I deserved it. I didn't want to lose you too. My recklessness caused Issabella's death, and I... I can't lose you too. I just want you to be safe, Tatiana."

Tatiana's lips parted in disbelief. "You don't know, do you?"

    Tatiana gasped as the words slipped out of her mouth. Her hands flew to her lips as she watched Cassius' face contort in shock."Oh God, I said it," she whispered, her eyes locked onto his.It took a moment before Cassius finally whispered, "Rebel," his voice barely audible, laced with both shock and excitement. "W...what did you just say?""Well... uhmm... the thing is, I... I missed my period last month, and this month too... though I haven't confirmed if it's pregnancy...""Jesus Christ! Rebel!" Cassius exclaimed, a smile slowly spreading across his face. He swiftly leaned forward and began kissing her nose, mouth, lips, and cheeks."You're pregnant!" he exclaimed, kissing her again."Cash, I haven't confirmed it yet. I'm not sure!" Tatiana exclaimed, surprised by his enthusiastic reaction. He was genuinely happy.He captured her lips for a brief kiss. "I love you so much, wife. You're the best," he said, his eyes shining with joy."But what if it's not... what if I'm just late?" s

    Rafael rushed into his room, but he was met with Leonard, who had a gun aimed at him."What are you doing, Leonard?" Rafael's eyes widened as he watched his brother's finger tighten around the trigger, his face contorted in anger."What does it look like I'm doing?" Leonard asked, sweat cascading down his face as his chest heaved."Are you really going to shoot me?""We'll find out," Leonard smirked.Rafael scoffed and began to laugh lightly. His laughter grew louder, filling the room. When he finally stopped, his face turned icy cold."Idiot," Rafael muttered.Leonard's face contorted in confusion and fear, though he tried to hide it. His grip on the gun tightened."What the fuck is wrong with you? What the heck has gotten into you? You are Rafael, my weak brother, and yet you stole everything from me. Everything!!!"Rafael sighed and gently tilted his head back. He returned his gaze to Leonard and said, "What is it, brother? Do I smell jealousy?""Jealous? Why the fuck would I be je

    Aurora was busy knitting a sweater for Dylan, her grandson, when she heard a knock at the door."Come in," she called softly. The door opened, revealing Cassius. A smile crept onto her face as she patted the side of her bed. "Come sit, sweetie."Cassius nodded and sat beside her, smiling. "I've missed seeing you knit."Aurora chuckled, her voice filled with joy. "It still feels like yesterday. I find it hard to believe I was in a coma for over six years," she said, her eyes flashing with sadness. "The thought of you sitting by my side, wondering if I'd ever wake up... it makes me feel sad for the pain I caused you.""I told you to stop blaming yourself, didn't I? It wasn't your fault," Cassius said, holding her hand. "It's all over now. You're safe here... with me.""Hmm," she hummed, reaching up to pinch his cheek lightly. "You've gotten so handsome and more mature. You have no idea how much joy it brings me to have you here with me."Cassius laughed softly, his voice thick with emot

    Aurora woke up, finding the other side of the bed empty. She gasped, realizing she had slept with William while at work. Her boss was going to be furious for abandoning her duties.As she staggered out of the room, she paused, spotting William. His eyes were teary, his lips trembling as he stared at her in disgust and anger."Will?" Aurora whispered. Her gaze fell on Karin, who stood beside him. The smirk on Karin's face made Aurora's brow crease in confusion. Behind William stood her boss and a few other workers, their eyes filled with disgust.What was going on? Why were they staring at her like that?William yelled, accusing her of cheating. Only then did the realization sink in. The man she had slept with last night wasn't William-it was someone else, and Karin had known it all along.

    "I killed Leonard... I really killed my brother without a second thought... I pulled the trigger... He wasn't going to kill me, but I did it anyway... Or maybe he was going to kill me... I'm a murderer... I'm a fucking murderer who killed his own brother in cold blood... I killed someone---"Rafael panicked, running his hands through his hair, pulling at it. He was losing his mind over Leonard's death-because of him. The scene of pulling the trigger, Leonard falling with blood spilling from his chest, Leonard whispering that he didn't want to die, and taking his last breath-played on repeat in his head."I killed him... I'm a fucking murderer," he whispered again, fidgeting in his seat and pulling his hair harder. "I fucking killed him! I killed him!" he yelled, standing up and punching the wall."I killed him!" he screamed again, punching the wall over and over until his fists started to bleed, staining the floor.The door opened, and he abruptly stopped."What the heck are you doing

    Cassius gritted his teeth. "I'm going to destroy Maximus and his empire... And if you get in my way, I'll destroy you... Until my last breath."As the men spoke, Rafael remained silent. Mr. King was also terrifying, his aura menacing. No wonder he's Silence's son.If you look closely, they share a striking resemblance.Silence sighed. "Chatting with my grandson was way more fun than chatting with you."Grandson? Wait! Dylan?!"When did you speak to my son?" Cassius asked, a deadly warning lacing his voice."Let's just put it this way..." Silence paused and chuckled. "Your butler, Conrad. He works for me."Cassius's eyes widened.-[SPAIN]"¿Estás seguro?

    Hudson advanced towards Tristan. "I've been waiting for this my whole life," he said, shoving the poison into Tristan's neck. Tristan gasped as the guards released him to the floor. Tatiana watched as Tristan struggled for his life, screaming in terror, wishing the pain would end soon. She recalled how the agony had driven her to madness... but the poison used on Tristan was even more painful than what had been inflicted on her. "Make it stop!!! Arghhh!!!" Tristan's screams echoed through the room, the veins in his face and neck bulging, his eyes changing color as blood spilled from his mouth. His hand reached out, trying to grasp Tatiana's dress, begging for the antidote. "Please... Argh!!!" For the pain he had caused her loved ones, especially Issabella, who had once seen him as a father figure. For the trauma he had inflicted on so many.

    "Uncle Conrad," Dylan called as he accompanied Butler Conrad in the kitchen."Yes, Dylan," Conrad answered, his voice calm."Don't you think it's wrong not to tell my parents about good Grandpa? My mother will be so mad at me once she finds out," the boy said, his tiny legs swinging as he sat on the stool."They'll find out about him soon. You don't want to spoil the surprise, do you?" Butler Conrad asked, and Dylan sighed."I don't know. Strange things are happening lately. Mom, Dad, Grandma, and everyone are so busy. I haven't seen Aunt Jojo since she left that night. A bad grandpa plans to hurt my parents, and my birthday is coming up. School's started, and I haven't gone yet." Dylan paused to catch his breath."I just hope they're okay and everything gets back to normal.""Stop worrying, kiddo," Butler Conrad said softly, glancing over his shoulder.

    [Four years later]Issabella spun around to look at the women in the room. "How do I look?" Nervousness was evident in her voice. She was wearing a professional outfit, her hair tied into a bun, with light makeup accentuating her beauty."Fantastic!" Tatiana responded. "You're really made for this.""President Issabella, right on track!" Jolene exclaimed, a ring glittering on her finger. She had married Jaxon last year. In her arms was little Elsa, dressed in a blue fluffy dress."Gosh, I feel nervous," Issabella exhaled, fanning herself several times."You're fine," Tatiana approached and adjusted her shirt.Jolene added, "Just be yourself.""Are you okay with this? I mean, you've been handling it for a year now..." Issabella asked Tatiana."With you by my side. You're way more capable than you think. Besides, handling it with my career is stressful," Tatiana said."Especially when Tatie won the Best Actress Award three times in a row," Jolene added."Drama queen," Tatiana mumbled."

    Cassius's face paled, mirroring the expressions of the others. Jaxon choked on his drink before bursting into laughter. The others joined in, and the room erupted with laughter.After they finished eating, they all headed to the park. Cassius decided to buy the entire place for his son and wife.Jaxon stood at a distance, watching Tatiana, Cassius, and Dylan riding the carousel. Aurora stood beside him, also watching."A wonderful sight, isn't it?" she sighed. "For a fleeting moment, I thought I'd never see this. Silly me."Jaxon put his arm around her shoulder. "You'll get to see this every day." He then recalled what Cassius had said about Silence and Aurora not wanting to meet each other.He knew it was for the best, but his heart ached knowing Aurora never experienced true love... or maybe she did.She cared for her family more than anything. The smile on her face and the happiness glittering in her eyes were priceless."Aren't you going to ride with them?" Jaxon asked Jolene, who

    Meanwhile, Rafael glanced at the man seated beside him with his eyes closed. He was now so used to his cold aura. "You're not going to see her? I mean, Mr. King's mother?" he asked. "I'm not going to meet her." "Why not?" Rafael asked, curious. "Can you keep your mouth shut? I'm trying to meditate here." "Says the man who used me. I'm still mad at you, you know... But weirdly, I'm glad you found me," Rafael mumbled. "So what are you going to do with me?" "Your choice. Either you stay and get the hell out of my way, or you come with me and become like me," Silence said curtly, standing to leave. He had gone far when Rafael ran to walk beside him. "You called me your apprentice. I'm going to stay that way. My place is with you," Rafael responded, and the man shot him a glare. "You wanna die? 'Cause I'm damn sure you won't last a week." Rafael laughed confidently. "Try me." Silence's lips curled up. "Fine then," he muttered, continuing to walk with Rafael beside him. "What are

    Cassius gazed down at Silence, his father, his emotions in turmoil as he recalled how he had stormed into Silence's room, eyes blazing."You're helping me," he said, and Silence turned to give him a questioning look. "Helping? And what makes you think that?""Rafael told me everything. How you made him turn against his family, causing their death. You hate the Wallingtons," Cassius said, and Silence simply returned his gaze to the sky he was looking at."If you want me to hate, then just say so instead of acting like a fucking asshole."Silence shut his eyes and sighed. "You're one stubborn son of a bitch. I'll be done and gone soon. So if you're going to throw a tantrum, do it later.""Why didn't you ever show up?" Cassius persisted. He wanted to get the answer out of this man at all costs. At least he knew something-Silence wasn't an enemy."I clearly recall telling you not to bother knowing who I am.""Well, sorry, Dad... I'm going to trouble you until you spill the shit," Cassius

    Horror flashed across their faces as they exchanged glances."Is this a joke?" The middle-aged man on the right slammed his hand on the desk."Do I look like a comedian?" Tatiana asked in a calm tone, her aura composed. She looked up at the guard standing behind her."Do I?" she asked him."No, ma'am," he responded."I didn't think so, so no, it's not a joke... Oh," she gasped slightly. "Maybe because I didn't explain it well." Her face suddenly turned cold, and the shareholders wondered if she was the same calm woman they had seen seconds ago.She leaned down, resting her elbows on the desk, her chin on her knuckles. "This company has been in the hands of trash-people who use innocent lives for their selfish interests. I'm here to take out that trash, starting with you."Another man stood up and roared. "You wench! Do you even realize what you're saying?! This company would collapse without us. We are the backbone of this place!""Oh really? Let's test that, shall we? I'll prove to y
