“I wanted to know Sam. What did you do that night of murder? No, I already knew, but I wanted to hear it all from you, Sam.”

Wide eyes with the mix of surprise and fear. Sam froze for a few seconds, then he clenches his hands tight and gritted his teeth. With the sudden flow of thoughts and facts that are now circling inside of his mind.

“If I try to explain it smoothly, would you believe me, mom?”

“Smoothly?”

Taken aback by the choice of words that Sam replied to her. Adriella asks that word for clarification, worried and almost on edge by the expression that her son just showed her.

“But then,” Sam pause, wondering deep about the sudden confrontation after all these years.

Now even thinking about his conversation with Jun. The docile confrontation and assurance that he gave to the detective. But now he is thinking that Jun might somehow talk with Adriella about it, before coming to him.

“Why now, mom?”

Adriella sigh and deep, worried about her son more than the truth that she just r

    “Y-YOU stupid brat! What are you doing here?”“What are you doing?”Mix of emotions are circling inside Sam, with his mind in protest and trying to make sense out of everything that he is seeing in front of him.“Tsk! This damn kid!”“What are you doing to Cath!”He screams, now in rage and shaking in anger. Seeing five adults around Cath and about to do something dirty to his girl.“Samuel?”Cath’s father called out to him in the tone of surprise and in guilt at first. Then it all washed away and exchange with the expression of hostility and anger. Blaring at him that he is being a nuisance to his plan.“You know this kid? What is this all about? We thought that we can have this night to ourselves? Remember that we paid you handsomely for your daughter.”Sam’s eyes widen in shock, fixing his thoughts and trying to make sense of what he just heard.“Paid? Why did they pay you? Cath?”His shivering voice due to his anger and bewilderment. Holding his breath for a second and immediately

    “THEN DIE.”The first gunshot echoes, startling the five men in the living room. With the brewing storm outside and the gravity of the situation that it all turns out to be. Heavy footsteps are getting louder and louder in seconds, and all the while those men are frozen for the moment. “You damn brat!”Cath’s father yelled. Heavily panting while taking his steps down the stairs which is like a burden a thousand times. “Damn! Someone!”He screams, calling the attention of those men, his friends, and the culprit that in the eyes of the young teenage boy are all devils. Devils who only wanted the flesh and skin for the young ones, dwelling on their lustful desire without thinking of the consequences in the end. “What the hell is---”One of the men is flushed with fear, cutting his words and immediately frozen for a moment at where he is standing. With his shitless appearance and the one closest to Cath, the nozzle of death is pointing at him. “Hey, hey, hey. What is the meaning of t

    “I am not dictating you or anything Sam. But you should know that Cath deserve to know the truth. For it is best that it will be coming from you and not from someone else.”Adriella reminded him, her words and sincerity that is enough for Sam to know that she is on his side. Knowing and both that what happened that night is not his fault. His act of protecting the person that he dears the most.“One of these days, mom.”He assures and promises. Fully aware that what Adriella told him is the best thing that he should do and he better do it fast and soon.“Then I’ll leave you to that. Just remember that I am here for you. I can always help you explain everything to Cath.”“Thank you, mom.”Sam took a deep sigh, thinking about his recent conversation with Adriella. With the same fact that Jun first made him promise to do something and quick. Confessing everything of what really happened from the past before Cath knew about it from anyone.That dark past that up until now, it is Lindsey w

So, will you please relax and stop nagging?”Cedric’s complaint. Irritated and had enough of Monique’s words like he will do something crazy that will ruin everything in their worlds. “You sound like a demanding girlfriend who is taking her boyfriend to meet her parents for the first time.”“Me? And whose boyfriend? You?”There both turn into a little quarrel that Cedric is honestly not in the mood of doing so. For he is thinking deeply and nervous about what will Monique’s parents had to say to him.“Alright, I’ll shut up.”Monique surrenders at the end, crossing her arms together and pouting like a little girlfriend that is dismayed and a lot towards her boyfriend.“Cute.”Her butler

    “BEATRICE.”The name that immediately rings the warning bell inside Cath’s mind.“Beatrice Cruz?”“Yes, that was her name before my father changes it to the one that she is using now.”Cedric’s innocent reply that is damn honest enough to be judge and think that the boy is even lying with it.“The Governor’s private secretary.”“Cath, are you alright?”Sam’s worry with her sudden gesture and surprise expression that immediately turns into worry and then anger.“If I am right, she is also one of the persons that Jun is looking for his entire life’s career.”“What do you mean?”Cath hesitates, looking back at the children and especially Cedric that will be the worst victim and the one with the utter disappointment not just towards his father, but for his life.“Do not worry about me aunt Cath,” the boy assures, brave and firm and subsequently telling her that he had seen the worst and even heard and knew the faults that his father had done. “I can manage.

All while only thinking of one thing, to have those documents copied and quickly sends it to the Lawrence.“Welcome back young master.”He is then greeted by the employees, which he casually ignores like the little brat that he is and known by everyone. He hurriedly gets inside the VIP elevator and up to the penthouse while glancing at his watch from time to time. Calculating his little moves and the known time that his father is not at home.“Welcome back young master.”He is then greeted by their housemaids, taking his coat and hat from his s

Did the Governor knew that you told us everything of his plan?”“I do not think so.” Cedric confess, sewing the facts the he currents have from the tone, mood and actions of his father. “Well he might be, but I think he is not sure yet.”“Will you be alright after what he just said? Especially that you, yourself is having doubts that he might know.”Monique’s concern and all while having her own thoughts and doubts if she will tell this to her mom and dad.“Don’t worry about me, I know my father, I will be careful enough and as promise I will get you those documents as soon as possible.”Cedric assures Moniq

    “NO, NO, NO.”Cedric almost stumbles down a few times and loses his balance upon noticing that the doorknob of his father’s office is being twisted. Quickly, he dashes towards the couch and took a book pretending that he is reading. “Cedric?”The Governor is taken by surprise upon seeing his son inside his private office. Untruthful from what he just learned and argue about with someone. He raises his voice and scolded his son. “What are you doing here, Cedric!”He snatches the book away and slams it onto the table, startling Cedric who looks at him with a scared expression. Which is an advantage for the young boy after stealing some documents and almost getting caught. “I’m sorry dad, I was just reading a book like usual.”He lied, but his usual reasoning everything the Governor finds him inside his office. A fact and a thing and two that he allowed his son of doing. With his mindset that as early as possible, Cedric should know how to run their family business and might as well s

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.
