Anita arrived at the movie set at the same time as her manager, Jessica; other actresses and actors were already at the scene."I hope I'm not late," Anita said the moment she came down from her car and took off her sunglasses."No, you are right on time," Jessica said, smiling at her. Then she took her by the hand and led her to where the other actors were sitting.The other actresses who were present there started murmuring; some of them went to Anita and asked to take pictures with her, which she agreed to without much hassle.Scarlet, who had been present there all along but was not acknowledged in that manner, stood watching everyone gather around her and trying to get on her good side with her face flushed and her jaws clenched."Bitch." She muttered under her breath and scoffed.Anita did not pay any attention to Scarlet after she finished taking pictures with the other actresses and signing her autograph.A young girl, around nineteen years old, walked toward her and introduce
Alexander was sitting in his luxurious office and staring into space, even though there were stacks of papers on his table waiting to be attended to and loads of work waiting to be done.His mind wandered to several places, everywhere except the work on his table.He could not stop thinking about his sperm that was stolen from the hospital. Who could have stolen his sperm?Alex could not help but wonder if someone was trying to have his child."But why." He muttered to himself.Well, for obvious reasons. But then, how did they know about it?Alexander could not stop worrying about whoever was trying to have his child and why.What if it raises a scandal tomorrow?Maybe demand for child support?He did not want to do anything that would affect the Scott family again; he had done enough already, and he did not want his grandparents to be angry and disappointed in him if this leaked.He stood up from his chair and started pacing around his office, then looked out the window.The view fro
Anita was staring at her face in the mirror as she washed her hands in the sink, hoping to see some physical changes in her body.She had even stood in front of the mirror several times in her house, observing and looking at her stomach."Anita, it's too early to see a stomach bulge." She said to herself.However, she had noticed lately that she was having a slight headache and had been feeling weak lately, even feeling nauseated.She was happy to see that the symptoms were the same as when she was pregnant with Austin. She felt hopeful, but she needed to confirm first before raising her hopes.Anita cleaned her hand with the napkin after washing it; she needed to go back to the movie set.It had been one month since they started shooting the movie, and everything was going perfectly well. They were almost done with the movie. Jessica would drop by now, and then you would commend her for her good job.Sylvia Scott was always all over her and trying to please her.Anita walked out of t
Days passed, and Anita was still feeling down as she washed her face after throwing up in the bathroom sink. Even the persistent headache and feeling of weakness kept increasing as the day went by.Her heart beat with rays of hope that she might be pregnant again; these symptoms are definitely not ordinary.She decided to talk to Angie about it.She walked out of the bathroom and went to meet Angie, who was in the kitchen doing dishes."Where's Austin, babe?" She asked as she got closer to her."He went to his room after eating; he is probably already asleep," Angie replied, turning to face Anita after cleaning the last dish with a hand towel."You've been acting strange lately; are you alright?" She asked with furrowed brows."That is actually what I came to discuss with you." Anita looked away with a smile. "I think I might be pregnant."Angie's eyes lit up. "For real?" She exclaimed, "Let me see." She rushed to Anita and started checking her tummy."Wait." Anita expressed laughter.
Alexander looked at Travis with disgust; his face frowned as he tapped his foot continuously, getting impatient with Travis's pretense.He checked his wristwatch, and he furrowed his brow. Alexander did not have enough time to keep playing hide-and-seek with him."Are you trying to play dumb with me now? Huh!" Alexander asked, his voice sharp. He aggressively removed his tie and threw it at a corner."I seriously do not know what you are talking about, Alexander." Travis clasped back, his voice shaky."Really?" Alexander shouted, his lips curled "Then what is this?" He took out his phone from his pocket and showed the messages to Travis."Are you sure you don't recognize this?" Alexander asked again, rolling his sleeves.Travis narrowed his brows as he looked at the messages."Do you recognize this now, or should I remind you?" Alexander shouted into his face."You really think I did this? I swear it's not me; why do you think I would do this?""Why else? Huh! Why else, if not because
It was Saturday morning, and Austin had an appointment at the hospital for his chemotherapy. Anita sat beside Angie at the front, and Austin sat at the back while Angie drove the car.Austin kept talking nonstop about his new friend, Anna."She is such a nice person; she even offered me her chocolate first.""That's so nice of her." Anita managed to say.Angie, who was in the driver's seat, noticed how passionately Austin was talking about Anna, and she smiled."Do you like her?" Angie asked with her eyes focused on the road, and Austin blushed."Yes, I like her. Mom, can she come to our house? She asked if she could visit and check out my toys.""Of course, she can; that's not a problem." Anita approved, happy that her son had a reason to be that happy.When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor started by asking Austin some questions about his health.Anita decided to use that opportunity to see the gynecologist, inform her about the pregnancy, and at the same time do some checku
Determined to find the girl whom he had slept with five years ago, Alexander made up his mind to go to the hotel where the incident had occurred. Now that he was aware that she was not originally the one Travis had planned for him to sleep with, he wanted to make sure to find the person and seek forgiveness for what he did."I'm sorry, Mr. Scott, but that was a whole five years ago. All the data from five years ago had been removed." The manager with whom Alexander sat in his office explained apologetically, with his face quizzical, wondering why he needed the footage after five years."Is there no way you could help me to at least get something?" Alexandra pleaded, his face doleful.Even the manager was surprised to see Alexander Scott looking so humble in his office, but unfortunately, he could not help him."I'm so sorry, Mr. Scott, but all the footage is gone; there is no way I could bring that back."Alexander nodded his head with his face downcast, and a frown appeared on his li
The video of Anita's fight with Scarlet had gone viral and was all over the internet. Fans of both actresses were making comments on the video and trying to support their favorites. However, Anita got more support from the public since she was the real victim.A follower commented. "Scarlet is the one at fault here; why would she add stuff to her drink without her knowledge? She is wicked, and I believe she was intentionally trying to rile her up.""I didn't know Scarlet could be this wicked and insensitive, and here I was idolizing her all this while; I'm unfollowing her right away.""I always knew there was something cheeky about this Scarlet; I'm sure she must be jealous of Anita. She is no longer my favorite."And just like that, less than an hour after the video went viral, Scarlet lost over two million followers from her five million followers, and Anita's social media followers drastically increased.After Anita was resuscitated by the doctor, she opened her eyes slowly to find
Anita became her father's heiress; she took charge of the company and became president effortlessly.She took care of the company even more than Sandra did, and it blossomed under her care using the knowledge she had studied in school and also with the help of her husband.Anita had always heard Jessica, her manager, talk about how much she missed her ex-husband and needed a man in her life, stylishly matched her with her father during one of her visits to the set, and they were a perfect match. They even started going on several dates after their first date, which was orchestrated by Anita."How was your date, dad?" Anita asked her father one day, when she visited him, to discuss the company's stock."What date?" Michael asked, looking clueless, and Anita laughed."Don't play that game with me, Dad; you think I don't know you have been going on dates with Jessica behind my back?""I have no idea what you are talking about." Michael joked, palming his face.Anita laughed once more. "Y
Two weeks after Alexander proposed to Anita, the preparation for the wedding had started.Anita, Lauren, and Angie were at Warren Mansion, preparing for the big day that would happen tomorrow.The three women were lying on the bed, facing the ceiling, and talking happily about one another."By this time tomorrow, you will have become Mrs. Scot," Angie said to Anita, playfully nudging her shoulder.The three women laughed."I can't wait to also be like you," Lauren exclaimed, smiling."Very soon." Anita nudged her. "And you too." She nudged Angie, who laughed.Soon, Lauren became sober. "Caleb lied to me; he just wanted to come back into my life to deceive me. all over again." She scoffed, darting her glassy eyes."What are you talking about?" Anita asked her."After I decided to give him a chance to right his wrongs like he claimed, I caught him sleeping with a girl in his house. After he had promised me that he loved me and had really come back for me and Anna, I was a bit heartbroke
After Michael got better, he was discharged from the hospital, and Anita made sure to always visit him and sometimes sleep in the house so he could recover fully.Sandra was arrested and later released because she did not commit any major offenses. Margaret, on the other hand, was left behind bars because she was found guilty of so many charges. She confessed willingly just to save Sandra; she even confessed to Gerald's role in all her crimes."He helped me do most of my dirty jobs; he was even the one who helped me get the poison I used on Michael." Margaret had said this at the police station.Michael was disappointed when he found out about Gerald's involvement in what happened to him."I was nothing but good to him; he worked as my assistant for so many years, and I never gave him any reason to be uncomfortable. But then why did he turn around to pay for my good deeds with evil?" Michael had complained to Anita as they drove back to his house. "Even Margaret, I treated her so wel
Anita was sitting by Michael's bed at the hospital, massaging his hand and crying. Alexander was sitting on a chair close to them.Michael woke up a few hours later to see Anita hovering over him with tears in her eyes. His eyes moved around the hospital room, trying to recognize where he was."Dad?" Anita quickly called as soon as she noticed her father had moved his fingers."My dear..." Michael spoke, looking at Anita tenderly. His lips stretched into a small smile as he saw her sitting close to him. "Anita."Anita's eyes were fixed on Michael worriedly, and her hands took his hand in hers. "Thank God you are awake, Dad. For a moment, I was. I was scared that I lost you too.""I'm here, my dear," Michael whispered, trying to sit up, and Anita leaned forward to hug her father for the first time in the last few years."What happened to me? Why am I here?" he asked.Alexander quickly went out to call the doctor to come and take a look at Michael. He arrived together with the doctor."
Margaret watched Sandra's face as she slept after she dropped the call with Gerald. She knew she needed to protect her no matter what happened. Things were starting to get out of hand with each passing day, and she knew she needed to do something bad as soon as possible; she needed to act fast.Margaret started pacing around the room; she could not sleep that night because it was hard for her to even get her eyes closed.She had gone too far to back out now; she had to do something to secure herself and her daughter's future. And there was no way they would have a bright future if they didn't take over the company.Margaret paced around the room even more with her head searching for ideas. She was thinking of ways to convince Michael to make Sandra his successor, but she knew the chances of that happening were very slim; it appeared like he had already chosen Anita over her.Should they attack Anita again and make her get involved in a scandal that would cause Michael to rethink his d
Michael was sitting in his office with his head bent towards his table.He couldn't do anything in his office, and at the same time, he could not go home.His home now felt like hell, especially since he had started to feel like he no longer knew his wife and daughter anymore.Had he been living with strangers all along? Could it be that he never really paid attention to their real nature? Or was there some sort of misunderstanding there?He could not help but wonder if it was really the truth that Sandra tried to hurt Anita's child. Was she responsible for his disappearance?And also what Anita said about Sandra setting her up years ago to sleep with a stranger. Did she really do that? But why would she do that? Was it because of money? Power?Michael's hand occasionally moved to brush his hair. Deep down, he knew he had screwed up; he had created a big mess, and he had absolutely no idea how to fix it. Even Anita was mad at him and wouldn't even talk to him, no matter how he tried t
After the doctor had attended to her, Anita was dozing off in the bedroom. Alexander was sitting close to her and looking at her face while brushing her hair backward with his fingers.Emily was also sitting by the side and watching her."Is she getting stable?" Emily asked him, watching Anita's face worriedly, and Alex nodded his head in response.Just then, Angie ran into the room holding an iPad and scrolling through it."I have been able to get the location," she announced."That's good news, right?" Emily asked, looking at Alex and Angie, and Alex nodded his head again."We just need to hurry there to be sure we can find him there," Alex said and stood up.He was about to rush out, then his eyes moved to Anita, who was still sleeping."It's fine," Emily assured. "I will take care of her.""Thank you," Alexander muttered and rushed off with Angie.They all got into Lawrence's car and drove off to the location.Alexander sat in front of Lawrence while Angie sat at the back as they
Victoria and Sandra are in an abandoned building somewhere on the outskirts of the city.They both looked restless as they paced around the room, looking distressed.Sandra kept casting angry glares at Victoria, who was biting her fingers."We are both finished. Victoria, what have you done?" Sandra barked; her voice had a shaky tone to it."Why didn't you tell me earlier that Alexander is the father of Anita's kids? If I had known that, I would never have made a move to touch the child." Victim admitted.Sandra was scattering her hair with her hands."You have just finished my life, Victoria; you have ruined what is left of my sorry life." She paced around the room some more, scattering her hair. Tears were beginning to gather in her eyes, and she thought of what would become of her life if Alexander happened to catch up with her."And... and the fact that you made me get involved in all of these acts when I clearly didn't want to..." She stuttered. "The boy's picture is everywhere,
"I'm finding it difficult that she could do all those atrocities; she looked and acted so innocent," Patricia spoke with her arms folded around her body, sitting across Emily."She fooled me with her innocent face and good looks." Grandmother's low voice responded, staring into space absentmindedly."We should count ourselves lucky that Alexander rejected her just before she was able to find her way into this family as a daughter-in-law, I wonder what she would have done to us.""You would have probably been worse than Alexander's mother, someone who is capable of murdering her innocent friend just so she could take her place and take over all her family's fortune." Emily retorted sadly.After the police declared Victoria wanted, it appears that her behavior toward Bella went viral.Emily heard of it, and since then she has been in disbelief. To think that she had almost forced Alexander to get married to her.Emily and Patricia were sitting in the garden, discussing the news.Even Pa
