Everyone ignored Clovia, thinking that she was harmless without her mother supporting her. But little do they know that she is the snake that is now invading the safety of their home and trying to kill one of their own. She is just waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Ida, Sara, Leo, Richard, and Sid were sitting in the living area, discussing their next move.

"I know it must be someone from within the family. But I never thought that it would be Selene" Sara shared her shock of finding out that it was her sister who was trying to ruin her all along.

"I found out about how vicious she is when she blackmailed me to marry her after your accident. I was locked so tightly in her clutches, that it was suffocating. I tried my best to protect Ida after finding out that we had a daughter. But somehow, Selene found out about her and

    The same night, Ida woke up feeling lethargic and sick to her stomach. She turned to look at the man who was sleeping beside her. A slow smile spread across her lips with love. She sat up and leaned her back to the headboard. Her throat is feeling itchy and her mouth is feeling dry. She turned to the side and noticed that someone filled the empty water glass from which she had drunk water a couple of hours ago. She picked up the glass and took a sip to ease the itchy feeling in her throat. She took a few mouthfuls. Before she could drink more, her stomach started to churn with discomfort and she started to feel sick. Immediately she rushed inside the washroom and started to puke her stomach out. Once she emptied her stomach contents, she dry heaved a few times before her stomach settled down. She took a deep breath to ease her discomfort. She flushed the toilet and slowly stood up to her feet."Ida? Baby doll what happened?" Leo rushed to her side and gently caught her by her shoulder

    Sid is sitting with his grandma early the next morning. No one was awake yet, but it became a habit for Nancy to sleep late and wake up early. So she was awake ahead of everyone. When Sid saw his grandma sitting alone in the kitchen, he joined her."I thought you left us because you had enough of Mom and Dad fighting over every simple thing" he spoke, showing her his vulnerable side.Nancy patted him on his head. Her wrinkled face split up into a gentle smile. "No, my boy. Your mom and dad used to make me upset with their constant disagreements, but you used to be my everything. You still are. When Sara requested my help, I thought of taking you with me, but at that time, we didn't know what kind of uncertainties and dangers we might have to walk into. I don't want to risk your life. I thought you would be safe here. That's why I left you here under your parent's care. I couldn't ignore Sara's distress. We owe the Giovanni family our lives.

    'Strange, water does not leave a trail like that ' he thought as his gut began to sink with suspicion.He stood up from the bed and rounded the corner to scan the water glass closely. He leaned down to pick up the glass, but before he could touch the glass, Ida's pain-filled moan caught his attention. Belatedly he noticed that she was paler than last night and by the look on her face, he could understand that she was in pain. He ignored the glass and immediately attended to his wife."Baby doll? What happened?" he patted her cheek to wake her up. But she folded into a fetal position by clutching her abdomen with her hands."Ida? What happened?" he inquired with panic. She moaned again, this time it came out as a half moan and a half sob."Leo, my stomach, it's hurting everywhere" she whispered as tears started streaming down from her closed lids."Sid" Leo yelled as panic settled in his gut looking at her in so much pain. He knows that their family doctor might not be able to attend

From the moment they both heard about everything from Nancy, they couldn't sit still with anxiety."I already called him. He sent me the address of the hospital. Come, let's go" he told Sara and the three of them made their way to the hospital. On the other hand, in the reputed hospital where Ida was admitted, Leo is pacing outside the ER worriedly. Just then the doctors came out and pulled their masks away from their faces."Doctor, how is Ida? What happened to her?" he inquired with concern and worry. The doctor looked as if he was feeling bad about what he was about to share. "Mr. Hamilton, we are so sorry. We tried to save yo

    The maid who is helping Selene and Clovia disconnects the call from Selene with a satisfactory smile on her face.'Good, at least something good is coming out of this. This is really risky. If I get caught, they will kill me for sure. But if I can cover my tracks just like how I am doing so far, then this should be fine. I have to make sure not to get caught ' she thought. She is sitting in her room in the servant's quarters. Her break time is almost up and she should go back now. Carefully she hid the burner phone inside her mattress through the small hole that she made. After that, she opened her room door, only to stumble upon a very furious Sid standing right outside."Drag her out and tie her to a chair in the middle of the living area. Boss wants everyone to see what we would do to those who betray us" Sid said with a barely restrained anger. Immediately two guards rushed inside the small room and pulled out a very pale-looking and scared maid out of the room. They are nowhere

I am doing what I was told to do. She asked for regular updates. So I gave her what she wanted me to do. That's it. I really don't know where she is. Please believe me. Please" the maid begged Sid.Sid glared at the maid."Why are you helping her in the first place? For money right? Will you do anything for money? Kill someone else's unborn child? People like you who don't have any loyalties are not welcome in this Giovanni mansion. And we do not take it lightly if someone betrays us like this. You deserve what you are about to suffer" he said coldly."No, please. Don't hurt me, please. I don't

She is not just a cook in the mansion, but over time she learned to survive and thrive in the crime syndicate. She became a pro in torture. She will never kill her victims, but slowly take them to the brink of death only to bring them back. No matter what, she would always pull the information out of them, no matter how stubborn their enemy proved to be. The maid's screams echoed around the walls of the mansion, scaring and inflicting fear in everyone who was working for the Giovanni's. The fear that was forgotten is brought back in everyone. The same spine-chilling fear just at the mere thought of betraying their owner. "Please, I swear on my family. I don't know where she is hiding.

    After speaking with the maid, Selene was really happy. She is under the impression that Ida is going to die. "Now Ida will be out of the picture. All of my father's property is under her name. Such a shame that it will now belong to a charity. But I still have access to Tony's money and properties. It's not as much as my Father's property, but it should be enough for me and Clovia to lead a good lifestyle. After Ida's death, I will kill Sara when everyone is grieving Ida. She is of no use to me anyway. And I hate her for being the precious and pampered daughter of Walter. I think I should celebrate my achievement. I should treat myself to a hearty meal" She decided to go out and eat lunch in a high-end restaurant.Quickly she showered changed and applied a thick layer of makeup before stepping out of the house where she was hiding.

He insists on carrying her everywhere."Who said you are not? I like carrying both of you in my arms. Why do only you get to carry our daughter? Why can't I carry her?" he asked with a playful wink.Ida groaned and gave up arguing with him. She knows that he will not listen to her, so she lets him do as he pleases."Oh Ida, you woke up?

    After two months... In one of the private beaches in the Bahamas, Rose is lying on the beach on top of one of the beach chairs with her eyes covered with shades. She is dolled up in a black two-piece bikini. Her sun-kissed tan skin is looking good on her. She gained a few much-needed pounds, which gave her curves that went on for days. She is looking peaceful and content. "Baby doll, here, drink this juice" Leo handed her a glass of cranberry juice, which is tangy, and she happened to crave the tangy taste these days. "Thank you" she replied with a small smile and sipped the cool refreshing drink. She hummed with approval as the taste of the juice made her tastebuds come alive. It's been two months since that fateful day. And two months two weeks from the day she lost her baby. And a year from the time when she first met Leo.

But Sara insisted that they needed a proper burial. So hence he arranged this small arrangement. Clovia was brought from the center to attend her mother's last rights. Ida was discharged from the hospital. Leo is standing beside Ida and is looking as interested as Walter.The priest started the procedure. "I request you to speak about the diseased" the priest requested. It is customary to speak well about the dead person. But no one came forward to speak good things about Selene. Because she never did anything good to anyone. "Let's skip the speech and proceed to the last step. Let's drop her coffin into her grave" Walter muttered impatiently. Apart from Sara who seemed a bit sad about Selene's death, no one i

    "Sara? Are you alright?" Richard asked with worry.Sara nodded mutely. Her gaze is still fixed on Selene's dead body. She recollected her sweet moments with Selene. Her eyes watered with sadness. There was a time when she used to share everything with Selene. But she failed to recognize how and when Selene started to harbor this much hatred for her. She suppressed her sadness and blinked her eyes to clear her gaze."Call my father. He needs to know this" she muttered before locking herself inside the bathroom to wash away Selene's blood from her body along with her memories.Richard dialed Walter and told them everything that happened in the mansion. "What? I am coming now" Walter promised before disconnecting the call.When Sara stepped out of the bathroom after a long shower and freshly changed into another set of clothes, she saw that her room was spotless again.

    Goosebumps erupted on Sara's skin. Selene looks scary and pure evil when she is laughing like this."You were cherished by Richard and by your father. They were treating me like a princess while I was ignored and my importance in the Giovanni household was minimal. I wanted to ruin you too. I want to take everything you had. So I did. I used Tony and planned that accident to kill you. But somehow, you escaped. After you were out of the picture, I married your dearest Richard and made his life miserable. I raised my daughter like a princess, while you and your daughter were living out there miserably.

    'Sara, I will kill you today ' Selene thought venemously.In her room, Sara couldn't fall asleep after her talk with Richard. There was a time when she was too young she used to feel that marrying him would be enough for her in this life. But now, so many years have passed and she is not the same. She still likes him, but she doesn't know if she wants to marry him or not. Ida no longer needs them to take care of her. She is blessed with Leo now. After struggling for so long, all she wants in this life is peace. 'I don't even remember most of what happened in these two decades. I was in a coma after giving birth to Ida. It was Nancy who took care of me like a mother. I can never repay her kindness. She is the person who saved my life.

    "It was not what it looked like" he muttered.Sara could sense bitterness and resentment in his tone. She understood that his relationship with Selene was not good."I know Selene might not have been a good wife. But what about Clovia? What do you think she would do if you married me leaving her mother? How are you planning to explain it to her?" she inquired.Richard looked at Sara. "I have only one daughter, and that is our daughter Ida. Clovia is not my daughter. I never shared a room with Selene after I married her. She became pregnant before marriage. So I was blackmailed into marrying her so that she can give a decent father to Clovia" he explained.Sara is stunned. "I..." she is at a loss for words.He understood her dilemma. "Sara, please, think about what I suggested. Don't you think we both deserve our happily ever after? Do you think that it's fair for us to end up alone in our old age?

    In the rehabilitation center where Clovia was admitted, the doctors are giving her electric treatment often to help her recover. The frequency of the electric shocks to Clovia made her head feel hazy and heavy. She is taking a little longer to identify the objects she is looking at, and she even forgets about why she got there. It took her a good five minutes to remember everything. Leo, his marriage to Ida everything Clovia did to Ida, and how she was stuck in this torture chamber."No, I have to get away from here as soon as possible. If they keep giving me electric treatments like this, I might completely lose my mind. If that happened, then I would lose my Leo forever. I have to escape" she decided to herself.So this time, even though she was awake, she didn't make any noise to alert the nurse or the doctor. Her ears perked up and she strained to hear for any movement outside her room door. When she heard nothing, she slowly sat up from the bed. She made her way towards the door

White hospital walls and beeping machines greeted her in the otherwise quiet room. Slowly when she remembered what happened to her a few hours ago, she started to panic. She frantically started tugging at her binds and screamed behind her gag. She planned to kill Ida and even hospitalized her. But she never expected to find herself in a place like this. "Ahhh...lt m g..." she said something, but her words came incoherent and muffled. She looked angry and would have killed the doctor and the nurse who gave her the electric treatment, but she was tied down to a stretcher and she couldn't move.As her anger started building, her heart rate and blood pressure began to rise as well. This made the machines start beeping loudly, alerting the nurse station outside. Immediately a couple of nurses rushed inside and looked at how Clovia was tugging at her binds almost with too mu
