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
Dracardo stood up from his chair and moved away from his computer. He stared out of the window for a little to let his eyes rest from excess illumination from the computer. He massaged his temple as it aches so badly. He smiled looking at the beautiful view of the outside world and how calm and beautiful it looks. He wished his life would be like this. As calm as a snail, and as shiny as silver. He shrugged his shoulders and went back to his seat to continue his work. He looked through different types of documents. Ones which he felt were important and ones which he felt were frivolous. After spending hours sorting out documents, he went on to read what the court said about his company being sued and the actual reason behind it. He clutched a pen in his hand which he used to underline information which he thought was unvirtuous and something needed to be done about it. He was beginning to feel crusty as he read the false accusations la
Jessica looked at Drake with her beautiful brown eyes, expressionless "What are you doing here."She asked stringently. "Am I not allowed to see my son?" Drake asked, a little hurt by her deportation. "You could have seen your son two days ago, not now. Now you can't see him, and tomorrow too you won't. So leave ." she ordered emotionless. "Jessica.."Olivia exclaimed. "Mom please, let me speak. If he chooses the time that he wants to pay his son a visit, then I shall choose the time to allow him to*. turning to Drake she said *I don't want to see your face here nor in my house, so get out and leave I said." she said, indicating her hand towards the exit of the ward. "Jessica, I understand you are angry, but please listen to me…"Drake pleaded. "I am not going to listen to any rubbish you have to say, I only said get out!" she said, gradually raising her voice at him. "Look, I don't think you have the right to kick me out of this hospital witho
"Irene.... Irene sweetheart,you have a visitor". Liam called out. "Coming dad." Irene yelled from inside and then rushed out to check out who it was. She found Alexandra sitting on their sofa in their house looking remorseful. "Alexi, what's wrong?" she asked as she walked towards her friend's direction. Her father excused to leave them alone and have their conversation. The two got up and went out to have their conversation. "Now tell me, what's wrong." Irene asked, concern visible on her face. "Nothing. Look Irene.... I'm sorry about the other time. I didn't mean to bring my anger on you. I was just upset with Bianca's words but that doesn't give me the right to bring that anger or blame on you. So please, forgive me. We have known each other for years now and I don't want all the happy memories we shared to be stolen by one night argument. So please again, forgive me." Alexandra pleaded. "Alexi, what you also did might have hurt me too, but that doesn't
Alexandra stood shaking violently. She was sweating from head to toe and Irene could understand why. Drug dealers were the type of people her friend feared the most, for some personal reasons. Irene stood by Alexandra and all three watched the sad scene unfold. "Irene." All three turned around and found Liam walking as fast as he could towards his daughter with tears in his eyes. The old man's legs kept shaking as he walked towards them. One could clearly see that he is in pain, but that would not stop him from getting to his daughter. Liam hugged her tightly before kissing her forehead "Why did you leave the house? Do you know how worried I was when I heard the gunshots and found out you were not in. Do you want me to die before you get married? Now, you will of leave the house without informing me, you understand." He scolded her. Irene and Alexandra chuckled making Liam turn his head towards her "And you, don't think you are not part of this. You are also like a
"We need to make a different plan. Victoria has something up her sleeve, so let's also make our own." Raphael said to Ruffy. "What do you suggest?" "I suggest we kill him, then I will take over his company by buying it. What do you think." "And how do you suggest you take over the company? You don't have enough money to buy even fifteen percent of the shares." Ruffy said. "I know that. I was thinking of offering a large sum of money to one of his executive members to steal some of the company's income." Raphael said. "What if he gets caught." "He won't, because your boys will be watching his back. What do you say." Raphael asked. "I say it is a good plan. But what do I get in return." Ruffy asked as he puffed his cigar. Raphael leaned back onto his chair in deep thought. What exactly does he have to offer that will be accepted by this man? All this man ever wants is money, but he had no intention of giving him that. "When I take over the comp
"You will be a wonderful father," Gina said proudly. Drake chuckled "I was expecting you to say husband but thanks, really appreciate it. Now get up you all, time to go to sleep." Drake said. "I should be taking my leave then." Gina said, getting up. "No, no you can sleep here tonight. I have a lot of guest rooms here in my humble abode." He offered. "Are you sure? But then, where would Eduardo sleep." she asked. "He said a lot of guest rooms, Gina, which means there are others I can choose from. But I can even sleep on the same bed and bath with him so don't worry." Eduardo said sheepishly, making Drake laugh. "Those were the old days bro, not anymore in your lifetime." He said, patting Eduardo's back. "The butler will show you your room Gina. Good night." He said , giving her a kiss on the cheek. "And be careful, he seems to have been watching you for quite some time now." Eduardo said smirking and ran out before he got scolded.
"Dad, do you always have to bring that up? You know it is one subject I don't like to speak of yet, you always raise it". Jessica said annoyed."How can I not talk about it? Even the clothes you are wearing are not good for a woman who just delivered". Alonso replied. Jessica looked down at what she was wearing. It was practical clothes: Blue jeans, canvas trainers and a fleece."Dad, you are only saying that because you don't like these types of common clothes". she said."No, I am saying that because I think you are still in some kind of pain". Alonso retorted."But dad, I am no longer feeling sore. Why can't I wear simple jeans". she argued. Alonso saw that she was not going to heed to his words, so he just shrugged it off." You are just like your mother". Alonso said smiling. Immediately, the cry of an infant filled their ears. Alonso's smile widened hearing the angelic cry of his grandson, it was so tormenting.Jessica got up to do the duty of a mother as is now her responsibili
