“YOU called for me Governor?”“Stupid!”Charles screams in anger and disappointment towards his trusted secretary. The moment and exact second when she enters his office. Throwing her a pile of document that ends up scattering on to the floor.“What is it that you are so upset right now, Francis?”She boldly calls his name, his real identity that only the three of them knew. While looking at Francis directly in the eyes with irritation, yet still in her sophisticated presence and casual tone of response.“Francis? Tsk!” Charles smirks, now in wrath for how bold and without fault she said his name without any concern of who will hear her. “Did you bump somewhere and hit that brain of yours, that your wit just scattered around just like those documents on the floor, for just casually calling me by the name?”His dismay, anger and irritation. Fuming in rage and slamming the glass table in front of him. Yet, she didn’t flinch for a bit and instead smile cunningly with her words.“Relax. N
“I will give you that chance and the benefit of the doubt. I will not tell anything to Cath, but make sure that you will. Sam.”A reminder and warning the Jun pointed out and more towards Sam. All after having the information and the truth that he investigated himself from the past that one way or another will hunt Sam and drag Cath in pain.“I will trust you in this matter. Break it down slowly and simply to Cath.” He added, caring so much to his partner, Cath and the one that will be the sore loser at the end. “She will be hurt, and that’s a fact. But being honest with her earlier and with the truth that will come from you. I am sure that she will understand and forgive you for everything, Sam.”“I know.”The heavy tone and guilt that Sam is facing right now. From the past that is now hunting him back and making him angry for the truth that he should be confessing to Cath.With his hands in a tight clasp and fist. He is looking at Jun straight to his eyes with the following words.“
“YOU are important to me Nadia, and that’s an awful truth I will not deny.”Jun’s response in a teasing tone and clown like smile that Nadia almost took to be a confession.“You are playing me, right?”“Tsk! Was that a bit obvious?”Her disappointment and dismay. Yet, she couldn’t help but smile from those words that Jun said. Even though it wasn’t what he truly means.“But I didn’t say that it was a lie.”Jun added, that somewhat taking back his words and telling Nadia that what he first and initially said for a while back is the truth.“Of course.”Nadia’s shy reply with the blushing face that she hides under the blanket and casually without Jun suspecting a thing.But.“What that?”“What’s what?”She a bit panic when Jun sat beside her on her hospital bed and put his hand on to her forehead.“Are you having a fever? Your face looks all red.”Jun’s worried look and face that is observing hers in a bit of a close proximity. Making it hard for Nadia to somehow breath for that moment.
BOMBARDED with the things that should be done and quick. Cath massage her head with her right hand while reading the documents that Jun’s junior in the police district sends her. All from Jun’s command, and the importance of it for Cath to have.“We need to act quick.”She whispers to herself, and immediately opens the door of Nadia’s VIP hospital room to discuss their next move. Only to find Jun almost falling face flat on the cold marble floor and Nadia all red face like a tomato. “By the way--- What’s going on?”Her little evil grin while looking at the two who are hiding something from her. Their little secret that is not that secret for her. For she quickly understands everything, and by mean everything, all the fluff and the rosy atmosphere around them“I’m sorry, did I disturb your couple time?”“What?”Cath’s teasing that Jun and Nadia immediately jump right and denied it flat and big.“Do not worry about me, I’ll just come back later.”Her sly smile and knowing gaze to the t
“DO you understand my point, Mr. Governor?”The tone that is both threatening and commanding. With the atmosphere that is both heavy and scandalous. Francis hold his breath for a moment, while his Mistress is stroking his crotch area and lustfully looking at him with the desire that is half wanting and not.“You do know where we are right now, right?”“Tsk! Just when is that an issue when you wanted to play dirty with me?’Their sexy exchange that from time to time is through a whisper to their ears. Francis’s mistress who knew everything about him, more than his wife could.“Do you want to play, or are you going to listen to my plan?”“Your plan? To those bunch of kids?”“The Lawrence twins, my dear.”She reminded, while tracing Francis face with her finger and all along is sitting on his lap with her skit way up, and touching his crotch area.“We can always do both, right?”Francis smirks, acting like a naughty tiger with a growl and a bit to his lips. While running his right hand t
“WELCOME home little master.”Their family housemaids greeted him. Some of their helpers from the mansion that his father requested to be with them temporarily to the penthouse and all after the Governor’s urgent work is done. “Do you want to have a snack?”“No thank you, I already have one a while ago with mom.”Cedric’s casual reply, all head high and sophisticated. Trained all his life and is currently to be that exceptional young master of a wealthy and powerful family. “By the way, where is my dad?”“The Governor is currently in his office little master.”“I see.”Didn’t mind anything, and by which he should have known it. All with the Governor’s character that is a workaholic. Cedric walks towards his father’s private office, but then.“Little master.” The housemaid suddenly stops him with a concerned look in her eyes. “I am afraid that you couldn’t meet the Governor for a while?”“Why?”Cedric’s little arrogant self replied with an irritated tone and expression that made the
“WHERE do you think you are going, little lady?”Monique’s spine tingles and for a second she froze in place and slowly looks back with her broken and guilty smile.“Nanny Ester!”She quickly acted innocent and adorable, smiling wide and arms wide towards their nanny Ester. But the middle age woman is not having any of it.“What is this about? It’s almost dinner time, your parents are even on their way back to have dinner with you. Yet, here you are about to sneak out of the mansion.”Nanny Ester scolds her, eying the little girl from head to toe and even reminded Monique about Cath and Sam that everyone in the family already address Cath as the twin’s mother.“You are even wearing your favorite outdoor attire and almost done zipping close your boots.”Their nanny’s watchful eyes, observing her without any flaws and knowing what she is thinking even before she could say a thing.“I am---”“I know that you are not going to a mall, nor any place to satisfy your craving for your favorite
‘JUST WHAT DOES HE WANT TO SAY TO ME, FOR HIM TO ACT LIKE THAT?’Monique thought to herself and had been bothered for a while now by what Cedric wanted this time. Bothering her for the fact that even though that boy is a bully and a red flag, he never did something like this unusual ever. ‘I AM MORE THAN BOTHERED BY THIS. NO, I AM WORRIED.’Her serious tone thinking about the thing that Cedric wanted her to know. Something that just not fits quietly in between good and bad. “Are you alright, Monique? Is there something bothering you?”“N-no! of course there’s none. Don’t worry about it nanny Ester.”The little girl quickly assures nanny Ester. Fidgeting at first, but she immediately collected herself and acted like she usually does. With a smile and two that nanny Ester didn’t buy, she hides her suspicion for now. “You know that you can always talk to Cath about everything that’s been bothering you, right?”Nanny Ester reminded her, of the fact that among all of them, Cath is the m
“MOMMY!” The twins, Monique and Cole opens the door and runs up to her with excitement and twinkling adoration to their eyes upon seeing her. “Wow, you look like a princess, Mommy.” “You do, you do!” Monique’s comment with wide smile and agreed by Cole. Admiring her beauty as she is dress in a sophisticated white dress. Her wedding gown and the day that she will finally tie the knot with Sam. After all the problems that are resolve, the secrets that are said, apologize, forgiven and done. With the twin’s biological mother gracefully out of the picture by her death. Everyone is there in that very special day to witness and congratulate them. “Thank you.” Cath smiles and giving the twins one kiss each on their cheeks. Making the twins giggle more in excitement. Just then, the wedding coordinator knock on the door and asks her. “Miss Catherine, shall we?” “Of course.” She couldn’t contain her happiness and smiling all the way through. With the wedding theme of like mystical fore
“HOW long has it been since then, Leo?”The expected meeting, but the unexpected expression and tone that is in a mix of disappointment and anger that Cath is showing right in front of him. Left alone in the headmistress office and at first glance they are seem to share a casual tea time. He looks down, not in shame, but a bit of worry from how things unfolded. Which makes him think if he is regretting his decision of giving Cath a clue about the past.“Or should I call you now with your known name, Aaron?”“Tell me, do you hate me that much after what you have learn, Cath?”“Hate you? Why should I? You didn’t do anything to me which needed me to resent you. Instead I am the one who should be asking you of that question, for I failed to recognize my old friend.”Old friend. The words that means more than the shallow meaning of it. Words that will disappoint anyone, for it means more than just a rejection, but a total abandonment towards someone who only thinks about one person and dea
MORE than being stripped of everything that he had, Harry is slapped with the truth and faces the wrath of Adriella in her calm demeanor whom everyone knows that it is worse than a tyrant in that kind of mood. “You do not need to explain anything to me but sign the divorce papers, right now.”“I-I…”Definitely shaking within his wits, Harry couldn’t even utter a single word nor look at the face of his mother-in-law worst towards Lindsey whose expression is indistinguishable for lacking nothing to see. Worst with the atmosphere in the room that is getting heavy and dreadful upon their conversation that a while back is going smoothly and just like always. Only to be struck by the divorce papers and the secret that Harry is been hiding for almost a month now. “I stayed quiet and compose for the sake of Lindsey. But since it all comes to this and the fact that you are caught red-handed. There is no need for further discussion.”“But I… I only did it once, or maybe twice or thrice, but t
“WILL this be alright?”Lindsey’s worry and her thoughts about what Sam decided upon after what happened. Hiding the fact that they were kidnaped. Letting Jun handle the rest with the pieces of evidence at hand and the new ones that were suddenly sent to them just a while back. With all of them know that it was from Beatrice, leaving Francis in the air and saving herself. “This is better and the appropriate thing that we should all do.”Cath seconded, forcing everyone to have this talk and all from Sam’s protest. With her injuries and critical state in the first few hours after they are saved. Luckily Cole wasn’t hurt in any way nor the child is traumatized. But make sure, Sam sends his son to the psychiatrist, and is currently under the care of Adriella. Lindsey recovers fast, and can now move on her own, unlike Cath. “Let’s just leave it to Jun and Nadia. They both know what to do.”She added, hiding the fact that she doesn’t want Sam to know about the organization that Francis on
DAMN alive and still breathing despite his injuries and the gunshot that he just receives from Aaron a while back. Francis stands before Cath, with his gun up a bit shaking from his wound, but directly pointing it towards her. “I may stupidly fail at first, but this time I will not fail to end your life. You who put me behind bars, Catherine Wayne.”“Cath!”Two familiar voices echo in the air, but before Cath could look and see for herself who could those two people be? Francis fired his gun, missing Cath’s vital spot from his shaking hand due to his injuries. Yet still, inflict Cath with another injury and a gunshot to her left arm. Stumbling backward made her lose her footing and leads her to fall to the cliff.“Damn! Just die!”Two gunshot echoes, now directly to Francis's legs leaving him impaired and down helpless. “You cannot save her, she is gone! You failed to save your girl, Samuel Lawrence!”Consumed with anger, Sam clenches his hands tight, yet he didn’t blow up on Franci
STARTLED and quickly stops in her tracks, now standing and still. Lindsey instructed Cole to close his eyes and cover his ears. Do not let go no matter what happens and wait for her to say so. “Do you understand, Cole?”“Alright, aunt Lindsey.”The little boy replied and quickly borrow his face to Lindsey’s chest. Being an obedient child, Lindsey could feel the fear of her nephew with Cole’s shaking body and cold hands. “Stop, or find yourself swimming in your blood.”More than a familiar voice and the only person right now that Lindsey could think of who. She slowly looks back and is not surprised to see the Governor, no, Francis, pointing a gun right in front of her and with a cursing look on his face. “Just how low could you go for doing this to our family? Are you desperate to establish your dominance over us that you are going this far for your selfish desire?”“Low? Who, me? Tsk! Do not make me laugh Miss. Lindsey Lawrence.”Their exchange made it clear and more than to Linds
TRAIL OF BLOOD is visible from near. Cath’s breath is heavy and her sweat is dripping from her forehead. She’s easing the pain from the gunshot wound that she got to her left arm and right leg. Dragging her heavy body and following the path that she instructed Lindsey at first if anything might happen and they needed to separate. “Tsk!”She clicks her tongue in anger and irritation. Tired and has been losing a lot of blood after she fought and struggled against Ivy. Now holding the gun that almost took her just a while back. “CATHERINE WAYNE!”The name, her name that Ivy screams in anger at the last second when she pulled the trigger and put a hole in its forehead. Ending a nightmare that she took within her hand and fails to put her back behind bars. “Almost. Just how many it is right now?”Suddenly reminisced and the similar danger that she took and choose for her career and passion. She chuckles and a bit rested behind a large tree. Ripping her bolero and tying it around her leg
GUN shots can be heard from a distance and back. The exchange and the loud crash with the blow of a bomb shake the ground for a few seconds. Holding on to a tree while tightly holding Lindsey’s hand with her right one, Cath held her ground looks back when Lindsey screams in surprise at what just happened. Starling Cole awake, that worried Cath even more than she is under a lot of stress right now. “Lindsey, are you alright?” “I am. I am just startled.” “Mom? Mommy?” “Cole.” They both immediately coax the child back to sleep. Lindsey covered Cole’s ears while hugging the little boy tight into her arms. “Mommy, aunt Lindsey, what is happening?” “Don’t worry Cole, that was just nothing, just go back to sleep.” Relieved that the little boy is still sleepy and that it didn’t give them the hard time to coaxing it back to sleep. Cath looks around and a few steps away from where she instructed Lindsey to stay covered and safe with Cole. “Tsk!” She couldn’t help but click her tongue
“THIS is what you need to do.”Instructions that Beatrice needs to follow. Things that she is hesitant at first to do since it might drag her name along with the danger that she just run away successfully from Francis. But with Hiro’s assurance and the things that Hiro just told her. The plan and the fact that the organization has Cath, Lindsey, and Cole, the truth that the organization is the other party that is rubbing Francis's patience, and the little deal that Hiro on behalf of the organization strikes a deal with Cath. Is more than a heavy reason for her to believe. No, she had no choice but to believe. For in between the organization and Francis, added with the fact that Cath strikes a mutual deal with the organization. One thing is only left for her to choose from, and that is to follow the plan Hiro just told her about, and put everything of the blame on Francis.“I got it. I’ll prepare everything as soon as possible. I’ll call you when everything is ready.”“Thirty minutes.
