The morning rolled in quite late today. Last night seemed to be the longest night everyone had in their lives. Even the simplest tasks like getting out of the bed and showering was a hard thing.

"Are you feeling okay? Is the temperature of the milk okay?" Luke asked Ruby as he rubbed her hair. They were now sitting on the couch in the living room. Luke had barely got her to get out of the bed to begin the day. He understood that Ruby was beyond devastated about her parents and he had to be very patient with her.

Ruby took the glass and nodded her head and went on to have milk in silence, while Luke sat beside her and checked his phone. There were messages from Leo and Gabriel. They had told him that they all would swing by his house later in the day. They surely had a lot to talk about.

"Let's shower and get ready,

    “A friendly advice, confess to your crimes and accept the punishment for it. Or else…”It was a note that Robert received in today morning’s mail. Right now, Robert was standing in the hall way of the Sawyer estate and he flipped the mail cover but it was all empty. It was an absolutely anonymous letter. He looked around to make sure no one noticed him or the anonymous note that he had received. Some footsteps grabbed his attention. He let out a sigh of breath when he saw his sister.“What happened to you? Why do you look like you have seen a ghost?” Anna questioned her brother as she grabbed the mail on the table. Robert softly mumbled, “Nothing.'' He did not know what else he could say in this situation.Anna looked for her mails and she picked three letters that were sen

And her brother Robert sitting by her side and Mason and another guy, who she did not recognize.“Madeleine, good you are at the right time. I wanted to ask you something very important,” Anna exclaimed as soon as she noticed Madeleine. “Yes, maám, please go ahead,” Madeleine politely replied.“Have you noticed any changes in Luke? Like has he been talking to my niece Gia or Leo or anyone else, mostly secretly,” Anna asked. The restlessness in her voice was very evident."Well, Luke sir has not talked to Leo sir much except for work related things.

So, go and grab it before the letter reaches your husband’s hand.P.S. The mail is going to the Sawyer Corporation. So, I am not sure to whose hand it reaches first."Anna felt a spine chilling shiver run through her body. She began trembling and shaking. Robert grabbed the paper before it fell down. He read it and had a blank expression later on.Madeleine came back with a drink and gave it to Anna. She noticed everyone's shocked expression.Suddenly, Madeleine's phone made a message notification. She opened it and looked up to face Anna, "It is Luke sir. He is looking for me. There is a meeting with Mr Salisbury in

    Ruby and Luke had been just lounging around in their living room. Ruby was laying on the couch and Luke massaging her feet while they both watched the show on the TV. It was the weekend and they had decided to just stay at home and be lazy bugs. Ruby hummed as Luke massaged her foot. Luke was being such a darling and taking care of her despite being tired from work himself. Suddenly, Ruby’s phone rang loudly, making them startle a little bit. Ruby lightly groaned as her phone was away but closer to Luke. He chuckled at her and grabbed her phone. ‘Gabrial’s name flashed on the screen. He frowned and asked, “Why is Gabriel calling you?” “Receive the phone call then you will know,” Ruby replied casually. Even she did not know why Gabriel was calling her on a weekend. Lu

Gia and Sunny were having a chat on the couch while Gabriel and Leo were checking something on Gabriel's phone. "Come on, guys, let's have lunch," Luke announced, catching everyone's attention. "Oh.. here is the precious star," Gabriel said, smiling widely at Ruby. He quickly dropped his previous action and hugged Ruby. "How is my little nephew?" He asked rubbing her baby bump. Ruby chuckled at his nephew's comment, "The baby is doing good and we don't know if it is gonna be a boy." "Of course, it is gonna be a boy," Gabriel argued and was faced with an argument from Leo, "I feel like it is a baby girl. I w

She halted the car only when she spotted Mason standing in the corner."Where is the other guy?" She asked impatiently.Mason pointed his head to inside the car and Anna was quick to grasp it. She got into the back seat of the car."Any news yet?" She asked. Anna could not wait to know who sent the threats. She was on the edge of losing her mind.

    Alexander had gathered everyone at the Sawyer Estate saying that he had something important to discuss. That one last matter he has to settle for everything to fall into its places. Gabriel was the last one to arrive at the estate. He seemed to be still in a hangover as the boys had partied last night. It has been four months since baby Alex was born. And the young parents had barely gotten time for themselves. So the boys and girls had divided into two groups and enjoyed themselves.Alexander made a disappointed noise in his tongue and shook his head after seeing Gabriel’s state. Gabriel looked up at Alexander with blinking eyes, “What is it, Grandpa Sawyer? Why have you gathered everyone first thing in the morning? Are you perhaps reading your will or something? If so, what are you giving me? I have worked so hard in the past one year like I have never worked in my life.”

    Ruby groaned and breathed heavily. She had been having concurrent contractions for the last fifteen minutes but she was trying her best to not freak out. She held the bedspread tightly and left out a heavy moan. Her voice was pretty loud this time and that woke Luke up. He turned around and saw her in distress, “Ruby! Ruby! Are you okay?” he asked anxiously.Ruby sighed and leaned her head back, shaking her head, “I can’t… It is paining Luke. I think the baby is ready to come out.” Luke immediately bent down and checked her dress to check if any water leaked and there it was. He moved upwards and faced Ruby, “Relax, Ok. So, your water has broken. We just have to reach the hospital now. I will wake up mom and dad. And also get the car ready and get you. Stay here and I will come back soon.”Luke jumped out of the

So, we are here to debug the cases of Anna Cyprus and Robert Cyprus laundering money from the Sawyer Corporation for over 15 years and also their illegal drug shipment and selling cases. And the last charges for the murder of Christopher Bakers and Danielle Bakers."The opening statement sent chills to Anna and Robert. It was not because of the accusations regarding the money and drugs. But it was related to Ruby's parents. They were too dumb to realize that Ruby had the same last names as the people they murdered. And Robert on hand was way too dumber for leaving the newborn with a name, Ruby Bakers, and totally forgot about it for all these years.

    The loud siren sound echoed in the woods. And it was not that far away from Anna hearing it. She jolted awake as soon as she heard the siren sound. She knew this might happen at any time but she was not expecting it to be this right away. She surely had prepared herself with the help of all the top attorneys that Madeleine had brought. But it still scared the shit out of her to be facing it. She quickly jumped out of the bed and ran to take a quick shower and get ready. To Anna Cyprus, her looks mattered even when she was expecting to be taken for investigation.By the time Anna had a quick shower and got ready, there were multiple knocks and continuous door bell ringing. She gracefully climbed the stairs down and unlocked the door. On the other side of the door stood two cops, one of whom she recognized from the other day at the Sawyer Estate.“Yes?&rdqu

    “So, all the evidence is ready, right?” Gabriel asked as he and Luke and sat down for the conversation. Alexander, David, Andrea, Leo, Luke, Ruby and Gia, everyone were waiting for them to come home to discuss the final matter of this never ending saga of Anna Cyprus and Robert Cyprus.. “Yeah, everything is ready. But I feel like it would be lovely if we had some evidence for Christopher Bakers and Danielle Bakers case,” Luke said with disappointment. Anna and Robert would definitely get arrested and put behind the bars. But he also wanted them to get punished for what they had done for Ruby’s parents. “Don’t worry, My man, I have the solution for that. Madeleine is on the way here. Just you wait,” Gabriel said, grinning at his best friend. A white car enters the Sawyer Estate. What Anna failed to notice was that the car belongs to her son, Leo. He had

    Ruby dragged Leo away from the main mansion while the others went inside. “So, what did you want to talk about?” Leo asked her with raised brows, curiously. Ruby sighed and wondered if she should ask or not. But decided to ask anyway or else she won’t be able to be at peace, “Have you known Lizzie from before?” Leo raised his brows and wondered why Ruby was interested in knowing about Lizzie, “What do you mean?” He pretended like he did not understand her question. He was very well versed in playing dumb. But would that work with Ruby as well? But he did give it a try. “Have you known Lizzie even before knowing her as our pregnancy class teacher?” Ruby repeated her question patiently. She was trying her best to not lose her temper. But this matter had been bugging her for a very long time. Leo decided to continue his dumb act. He shook his head as a no, “No, I don’t know her at all. It was you guys that introduced her first to me.” Ruby’s eye brows creased. She was expecting an answ
