Sighing with relief, Eduardo crossed the part between them and enveloped her in a hug. He could feel her flinching but ignored it anyway.While he stared at her quietly before, Eduardo couldn't say that he was not hurt by her actions. He was astonished at her behaviour and to be frank, was very annoyed. He had thought he did something that annoyed her earlier before? Was it the money he offered to her and her guardian that had offended her. It took him time to assemble all he gave her before finally relying on the fact that, indeed, it was the money he gave them that made him receive these cold questions from her. But now thinking of what she had just confessed, all his worries had been washed away. Breaking the hug, she asked "What are you doing here? How did you find me." "Let's just say I followed where my heart led me to," he replied. "And your heart leads you here." she said with a smile forming on her face. "What can I say, you stole my heart." he said, giving
"I will pay you handsomely if the job is done well." he offered. "I don't need your money, I am interested in the guy anyway. All I need is for you to pave a way for me into his life, nothing else, get it." Victoria said, seeming derogated. Raphael was astonished at Victoria's authoritative voice. He had never met a woman this brave and wicked before. Now that it had been made clear, it seems he was not the only one interested in ending the relationship between his sister and Dracardo. And while he thought he had the most wicked heart of destroying one's life, this woman had proven she had the baddest. He had to give all the credit to Ruffy, for tracing her to him. Finally, he is now feeling some little bit of glamour building up in him. Oh, how long it has been since he felt that feeling. The feeling of seeing his sister suffer. The feeling of seeing tears in her eyes. The feeling of seeing her heart break into pieces. He thought of all the times he had failed to
"Drake." Jessica exclaimed. She couldn't believe her eyes. Her legs started to tremble, unable to hold her up anymore. Her heart felt like it was being pounded, with something she couldn't identify. She now understood why she had a bad feeling coming here, Drake was in there with another woman. How could he do this to her? What had she done wrong? He had been so romantic, not once acting out of place. He had been so caring to her, loving and never absent when she needed him. He had been a responsible partner, one who goes over the extent to do anything for her. But now seeing this with her own eyes proved that it was just an act. He had been cheating on her, with no one else but this despicable, filthy woman. What did she give him that she hadn't? Her mind flashed back to the picture she had received from the unknown number. The fundamental truth was before her eyes but she rejected it. She now believes that Drake only wanted to use her and then later cut the ground f
Drake stood by the big glass window in his office looking out at the view. So many emotions ran through his mind and unknowingly, a tear fell down his cheeks. "Why me of all people? What did I do to go through all this pain? When does it ever end?" He asked himself as another tear fell down his cheeks. He wanted to share his pain with someone, but that someone is the cause of it all. He remembered her beauty, innocence, confidence, daringness and kindness. And he thought, everything about her reminded him of the qualities he had heard about his mom. She was now in her ninth month, and fear of him not seeing his child be born crossed his mind. He wants to hold his child, caress its cheek, and swing him or her around his room. He doesn't want his child to be called a bastard, because of an ill fight between his parents. Such thoughts made him abhor life. Didn't get why things always worked this way for the innocent. His thoughts got distracted by a sudden knock
"I don't think that's how it is done,"Eduardo said "How is it done then," Carissa asked "That one passes through that whiles the other passes through this one," Eduardo demonstrated. Chuckling, she said "How did you know how they do it? Only hood boys are good in this," Carissa said. "Well yeah, I have been a hood boy before that is why I have to say am better at it than you," he said with a smirk. She laughed out loud thinking he was exaggerating. Noticing she didn't believe a word he said, he took the thread and needle from her and began knitting. Carissa watched how he was knitting so fast that her jaw fell down open. She couldn't believe it. He had actually really lived in a hood before. Which meant he wasn't raised with a silver spoon in his mouth. "How do you know how to knit so fast? Even I am not good like that," she said impressed while he continued what he was doing. He was about to tell her that he had been a street boy before but
Jessica was rushed to a nearby hospital near Montenegro's mansion. Since she was in pain, Drake suggested she should be taken there for fast and safe delivery. There was glamour in the air as both Drake and Alonso were longing to see the new member of the family. Drake paced back and forth waiting for any news from the doctor if she delivered safely. Once in a while, any doctor he will come across would be asked if he was the one looking after Jessica. He would curse if the answer was No and continue with his pacing. He noticed some eyes on him and some would even stop and take a picture of him since some rarely saw the prestigious Founder of Lincoln's Paradise in the open. Alonso could see the anxious father not being steady and thought Drake was just wasting his time because he won't allow him to get even a peek at the baby. He would never allow his grandchild to know a person like Drake, not in his lifetime. Soon, a doctor emerged from the Ward wearing
At the pub, three girls came together to party after they had graduated from school. It was a beautiful day for them because the habit of waking up early to be on time for lectures had finally ended today. Not to forget, they don't have to obey any school rules anymore because they were completely done with school. It was now behind them and the only thing they had to look up to was what was ahead. They were not filled with any remorse at all because they now had time to bask themselves without being worried about any projects. Irene, Alexandra and Bianca ordered some whiskeys to cool their parched throats. While Bianca kept calling for another round each time she emptied her glass, Irene and Alexandra just took one. Irene was sore afraid of what her father would do to her if she went home drunk. Not to forget,that was not how she was raised. Meanwhile, Alexandra just went one round in case a guy's eyes were on her, he should be impressed.
Jessica broke down into tears and that was the sight her father came to meet in her room. He walked towards his daughter with a worried look but Olivia stopped him in his tracks. She gave him the look which told him to back off, so he did. He waited till Olivia comforted Jessica and put her to sleep before they walked out of the room. As soon as they walked out, Alonso started once again. "This is all his fault. If he hadn't come back, she wouldn't have been in this state. This worthless boy has made my daughter's life miserable, and believe me I will make him too no…" Olivia cut off Alonso in mid sentence and stood the grounds for her daughter. "Alonso, you are such a shameful father. A lonely fool who always blames the innocent. Why don't you go tell her that you drove Ricardo away. Why are you making him the bad person here, is it only to destroy your daughter's feelings." Olivia yelled. "Olivia,I didn't...." Olivia stopped him from whatever he was going to s
