Chapter 72 A NEW ALLEY "What?" Lizzy asked confused, "I want you to work with me Elizabeth" he repeated "But why, I mean Daisy is your daughter" she stated, she couldn't understand why Mr Montero could be doing tthis, perhaps he was just trying to see how far she would go to have Steve and use that against her, "Am sorry Sir but I have decided I don't want Steve anymore" she quickly added, Mr Montero laughed loudly at her words "Don't be scared of me Lizzy, I know you want Steven and am going to make sure you have him or isn't that what you want?" He asked, Lizzy was now more confused as she didnt know what to make out of this anymore, the man seemed serious but she still couldn't rule out the possibility that he was tricking her "Let me get straight to the point" Mr Montero put his hand in his pocket and grabbed a small black bottle and handed it to her "What is this?" Lizzy asked looking at the bottle "That bottle contains a Very effective substance used to cause an abortion
Chapter 73 LETS BE FRIENDS "Can i ask you for a favor?" Lizzy asked Alex "Yeah, sure" Alex answered to which he received a smile from her "Invite me to your house!" Alex almost choked on his drink upon hearing her, "What?, didn't you say mom asked you never to show up at home?" He asked "She did, which brings me to the next part of what I was about to say, I need you to act like my boyfriend in the meantime" she told him, "What?" Alex exclaimed even more surprised this time, he touched her forehead just to make she was sane and okay Lizzy brushed his hand off "What, wouldn't you be glad to act as my boyfriend, most men I know would, I mean look at me" she said gesturing to her whole body "Its not that, just that am surprised why you would suddenly suggest that, what are you planing on doing?" He asked with raised eyebrows "I want to be your girlfriend so that I can get to come to your place over and over again" she said with a smile, "In fact, we should go right now and se
Chapter 74 THE FILE Lizzy went to Alex's room proud of her performance, if only Daisy had not been so stubborn, then she would succeed in her plan rather sooner than later, She remembered Mr Montero's warning telling her to do this carefully to make sure no one was aware, if not for that, she would have probably paid someone to add the medicine to her food but she couldn't risk this, it was her only chance. "Why are you making that face?" Alex asked dragging her to reality "What face?" She asked "You were grinning" he said with raised eyebrows "No i wasn't and if I was then its probably because I was thinking about you" she laughed loudly to kill the awkwardness "Let me take you home!" He offered "Not yet" she quickly refused trying to think of something else she could do to ensure her mission was accomplished. Daisy was laying in bed lazily as she thought of her father, She knew he was happy because he won the case, it wasn't a surprise to her though, it was evident that h
Chapter 75 LUNCH WITH LIZZY Daisy watched as Lizzy ordered her meal, when she was done, she turned to her and found Daisy already watching her "Cut the crap, why are you doing all this?" Daisy asked "Can't i be friendly to you, I told you that am now dating Alex, there is simply no need for me to hate you anymore" Lizzy said, she then stared at her phone "I, excuse me, let me take this" she said and stood up, She secretly went into the kitchen and called the waiter they had pressed their order from, This was risky and she knew it but she felt that she was running out of patience, she was forced to act friendly with Daisy which she hated and to top it all, Daisy wasn't making things any easy for her, "Here is $1,000" she said handing the waiter a check, "What should I do with this ma'am?" The waiter asked confused "I need you to do something, the meal the other lady I was with ordered, add this to her food and destroy the bottle" she said handing him the small bottle Mr Montero
Chapter 76 POISON The other waiters had eventually cleaned the mess she had made, when the waiter who brought their food came back, she was even much more frustrated "What is it?" She asked "The rest of the amount ma'am" the waiter said "Are you kidding me, didnt you see that not only did she not eat the food but it spilled on the floor?" She asked irritated "I don't know about that but I added the substance like you asked me and got rid of the evidence, that was all I needed to do now its either you pay me the remaining amount or am calling the police and telling them you tried to poison your friend" Lizzy let out a frustrated sign as she wrote him a check and handed it to him, She walked out without touching her own food, Her plan had failed miserably, what was she supposed to do now, she knew she couldn't trouble Mr Montero for another bottle of the substance or he would think she was too stupid to do a simple job, She went to her car and sat there for a while trying to thi
Chapter 77 A FAMILY Steve took longer to sleep as he laid in bed looking at Daisy's sleeping face, She just told him something important, so her father wasn't backing down as expected but he didn't think it would reach this extent where he had him followed and took keen interest on the people that came and left his office, He left out a deep sign as he stared down at her tummy, He had not thought much about the baby except about it being a reason Daisy wouldn't leave him, He began to think about What kind of father he would be to his kid and that thought alone made him anxious, while growing up, the only thing he had been thinking about was getting revenge on behalf of his parents, he had never thought about women or falling in love, talk less of starting a family, all this made him have mixed feelings about everything, Despite the circumstances, his child had to be well taken care of, he would probably never fall in love with Daisy but he was going to be there and figure out e
Chapter 78 JEALOUS "Didn't you all know?" Daisy asked pretending to look surprised, Lizzy on the other hand was on the edge, she was so irritated that she felt like shutting Daisy's mouth, "Lizzy?" Daisy said yet again "Yes, my mom was involved in an accident in france, it was nothing big but of course my Dad covered up the whole incident so maybe thats why you probably didnt see any news" she explained, Everyone nodded and seemed satisfied with her answer "I will give her a call later, I hope she is okay" Mrs Dante said "Yes, she was discharged last night" she answered, she gave Daisy a death stare before she went back to eating her food. After breakfast, Steve told Daisy to dress up and went back to the backyard to see his mother, He had not talked to her since two days ago because of the way they argued and he felt guilty about it , He found her reading a magazine sitting on her wheelchair and kneeled in front of her, "Mom" he began, Mrs Dante didnt respond nor look at him
Chapter 79 A ROMANTIC DATE Ben drove Daisy and Steve to a very beautiful hotel, Steve then led her to a master suite, the room was romantically decorated, When Daisy saw how everything looked, she couldn't help smiling, maybe It wasn't such a bad thing that she had been upset, It was clear Steve was trying to impress her and it was working quite good already "You like it!" He asked, she slowly nodded, Steve unexpectedly kneeled in front of her holding her stomach with both his hands "Does our son like it too?" He asked, Daisy couldn't help blushing, "I think he does" she shly replied, Steve pressed a kiss on her tummy and got up, "Good, can I get you anything?" He asked "A glass of wine please" Daisy replied "What?" He looked surprised at her response and for a moment she thought she had probably said something wrong "Didnt your Doctor tell you that pregnant women don't drink?" He asked "Oh, I forgot, am still not used to the fact that am pregnant" she admitted "Well then
Chapter 109 THE AFTER MATH.

Steven Dante called to his wife who was still in their child's room "I will be out in a minute" she answered him "Hurry up, Maria, visiting hours will be done soon!" He yelled again, he had to wait for A few minutes before Maria and Daisy walked out with Daisy carrying little Rosie "What kept you so long?" Steve asked "I grow cold feet, Maria was convincing me to just let it go" Daisy admitted, Steve stood and held her hands "Honey, why didnt you tell me this is where you were feeling?" He asked "I didnt want to worry you, I mean we have been talking about this for a month now, I didnt want to make
Chapter 108 THE FALL OF MR MONTERO "They dont want money Dad, they said they want to see you turn yourself in or they will kill me" Daisy told him, "Oh Honey" Mr Montero covered his face crying "Please save me Dad, I don't know why anyone would want to frame you like this, am so sorry, I love you Dad" she coughed more blood making Mr Montero touch the screen of his phone "Honey, I will save you, please hang in there" he cried, Steve pressed the button and ended the call "Do you think that will do the trick?" Daisy asked worriedly "I think it will, all we have to do is wait, Alex, get rid of the phone" he said to Alex "Not before I send a text" Alex said, he texted Mr Montero telling him that if he didn't admit to killing everyone he has ever killed the next day before the verdict, then he would receive Daisy's dead body. " I will be on my way, you two be ready for tomorrow, Mom will come and pick you up" Alex said, "Alright goodnight" Steve and her said at the same time. Whe
Chapter 107 A COUPLE'S REUNION, TAKING ABOUT THE PAST AND FORGIVENESS.. "I don't believe you are okay, I was so worried about you" Steve admitted when they sat to talk on the bed "I was on my way to see you when the accident occurred, Daisy removed the necklace around her neck and opened it "Please get the laptop" she said, Steve got Alex's laptop and they put the memory card, Daisy played the video and they watched in silence, When the video was done, Steve turned to look at Daisy who was looking away, she seem not to want to watch the video again and he could only understand why "Thats your mother?" He asked and she nodded softly "Am so sorry" he said "Yeah, me too, I feel sorry that I didnt realize this sooner, I hate Jeff Montero so much, the only way we get passed this is if we get him arrested and we are going to do that by all means possible" she said "Martha told you?" He asked "Yes, she told me everything, its funny how I didnt realize what kind of person my father i
Chapter 106 A BROTHER'S KEEPER Alex got home and found his family gathered in his father's study, everyone looked worried especially Steve who looked like he was about to cry any moment now, "What happened?" He asked breaking the silence when he entered the room "No one knows where Daisy is, even Mr Montero is worried sick about her, I need to find her, I can't help thinking if she is fine or not" Steve spoke "Am sure she is fine, we should all go to bed" Alex said, Both his parents and Steve gave him a deadly look "You expect us to sleep in a situation like this?" Mrs Dante asked with disappointment "See, that's what I always say, this boy will never change no matter what, he doesn't care about anything" Mr Dante spoke, Steve wanted badly to side with his parents as he didn't like what Alex said but he couldn't put Alex in the same situation again, he had realized his mistake so he couldn't repeat it again "I think Alex is right, there is no use of staying up being worried, we
Chapter 105 Alex's PLAN "what are you going to do then, keep me here until God knows when, I need to speak to Steve" Daisy said but Alex shook his head "Am sorry Daisy but I can't let you do this, not now, not yet" he said "Then how long will I be here?" She asked "Until Mr Montero pays for everything he did, I want him to be arrested, if I let anyone know that am behind this, I might get caught and I can't risk that, My parents and Steve's life are on the line right now, please be more understanding and let's work together" Alex pleaded, Daisy was thoughtful for a while "Fine but i hope this plan of yours works" she finally answered "Am hoping it does" the two were sitted in silence for a while each deep in thought. "How are you even connected to my father, I mean there is no where he would just want you to kill Steve out of nowhere" Daisy asked "You are right, I did something a while ago, Mr Montero had me covered in exchange for any information I would have against Steve"
Chapter 104 ONE COMMON PROBLEM Mr Montero ended up getting One of Judge mathew's children and ordered jonas to take him away, he was warned not to go to the police or do anything stupid if he wanted to see him alive again, All he had to do was make sure that he did exactly as he wanted, the judge was left with no choice. Just as he left the house of the judge, he received a call from one of the men he left at home "What's wrong?" He asked "Its miss Daisy sir" his heart skipped a bit"What happened to her?" He asked "She is missing, there was an accident on the way, she insisted on going somewhere and one of the men drove her there but when we got there, we only found the guard passed out, Daisy was nowhere to be seen" he explained "How dare you, didn't I tell you to make sure she didnt leave the house, find her or you will pay for this" he said and hang up the call "What happened sir?" Jonas who was driving asked "Daisy is missing, I think Steve had something to do with this"
Chapter 103 "Daisy, look at me" Martha said holding both her cheeks "You have to help your husband, Your father is a bad man, no matter what, he deserves to go to jail" she said "But how can I help Steve, he doesn't even want me" Daisy cried "Those were all lies, Steve brought you to the hospital, he sat next to you after you left the ICU until your father kicked him out, when he was arrested, Steve spent the night waiting for you, I spoke with him, he loves you more than you can imagine Daisy, go help him, he needs you right now" Daisy was surprised to hear that Steve had been there all along "But how, I don't even have any evidence except from what you just told me" she said "Look around your neck, that was your mother's necklace" Daisy looked around her neck to the necklace which she always had ever since she could remember, she took it off "What does this have to do with anything?" She asked confused "Open it up and get the memory card that is inside, I will leave you to it
Chapter 102 A MAN WHO GETS HIS WAY Mr Montero and Jonas went out to see the judge's family. After realizing that the evidence Steve had was solid and he was more likely to get jailed, Mr Montero was rather getting desperate, he came up with a plan to visit the judge and two members of the jury, this was the one way he was sure to win the case, if he had his way of knowing where Simon was, he would have already shot the old man dead. Jonas finally stopped the car in front Of the judge's house "Are you certain he is not yet home?" Mr Montero asked just to be sure "Yes, he has another hearing and is still in court, I cross-checked his schedule" he said "Are you sure?" "Yes Sir". Jonas got out of the car and opened the door for Mr Montero handing him a gun, they both went to the front door with two more of their men following behind. Jonas then rang the doorbell and soon after, a teenage boy opened the door for them, "Yes, how can I help you" the boy asked looking at his phone, h
Chapter 101 MY FATHER THE ENEMY Daisy went inside the house still deep in thought, she began to look for Martha and when she found her, she led her to her room, this was her only chance to confirm what Steve told her since her father was currently not around. "What is it Daisy, how did the case give, where is your father" Maria asked as they walked to her room "Dad might be found guilty, the evidence has is quite solid but I think its not enough, the final videct will be in two days" Daisy said. Finally they got to her room and she locked the door behind "Daisy, what's all this?" Martha asked confused by her odd behavior, Daisy made Marths sit on the couch and stared at her for a few seconds, "What's wrong, why are you looking at me like that?" She asked, in response, Daisy got hold of a picture which stayed at her bedside, it was of her mother holding her when she was only a little baby She stared at the picture, then at Martha and then at the picture again, Suddenly, she fel
