Lara was sitting at an expensive-looking diner dressed in a handless red sexy gown that had glittering tiny ornaments, her makeup was done nicely and one could say she looked stunning.

"I'm glad that you agreed to have dinner with me, it's been a while since we have done something like this!" Lara voiced out with a smile.

"Well, I did tell you that I would give our marriage a second chance!" Christian who was sitting opposite her said and that had ignited a flashback.

TRANCE

(We have spoken about this, that you would forget about Miriam while you are campaigning for this election, right?" Monica's voice echoed in her head.

"I tried mom, I tried to stick with Lara but I really can't!" Christain's voice came.)

"Uhmm__, why don't we order something?" Lara asserted but whatever they were saying was caught short the minutes Christain's phone had begun to beep loudly.

He slowly took out his phone before speaking.

"You should go ahead and order, you already know what I like. I would jus

    "I don't know why you are giving in to the Joseph guy when he is just going to suck you dry!" Jeffery said to his friend while adjusting the wrist watch on his hands."This wouldn't have happened if he didn't find out that Miriam is now my wife," Carlos said typing something on his laptop."Do you know what, I don't think that guy can do anything? Why don't we come up with a solution to your problem, okay!" Jeffery suggested.Carlos rubbed his face before getting up from his chair and glaring through the window. "Buddy, just one week!" Carlos spoke out."Just one week, what do you mean?" Jeffery asked."Miriam and I would start living in Paris since we have a branch over there, just one week to go and within that week. I just have to make sure that Joseph and Miriam do not meet or see each other," Carlos said. "You have a long week and anything can happen in that period of time, what if they bump into each other? What would you do?" Jeffery asked his friend smartly and that had left

    "Thank you very much, Mayor, for having my son Christain be on your team for this coming election!" Robert said to the man dressed corporately in his sitting room. "It's nothing, my own son isn't ready yet to take my position and I know for sure that when he is, you would also show your support! My family and I have decided that they should help Christain out in the coming election!" The Mayor said. "Thank you very much and I want you to know that you would never regret this decision. Christian is good, and he would be a good role model to all our townspeople!" Monica asserted proudly. "I don't know about that Mrs. Robert because news reached me and I heard that Christain has another woman and of course, that woman isn't his wife!" The Mayor uttered."Of course not, that is not true Mayor!" Monica briskly said."Uhmm_, that's not true Mayor. That's just hearsay!" Robert repeated as his wife got up from where she was sitting when she heard the sound of a car outside their home. She

    "I'm not telling you not to help out in the case of Miriam but son, think of the consequences of your actions. you were supposed to run for this election unopposed!" Robert told his son as the maid poured tea into his cup."I'm sorry father but like I told you before, you should not think of political campaigns because the minute Miriam's case is finally over. I know that I would get the sympathy vote that I need to win this election!" Christian uttered as he sliced the sausage on his plate. "What about Lara, what is going to happen to your marriage then?" Robert asked yet again."We already lost each other even before we came back to New York. It is just a contract on paper that binds us together," Christain answered his father before chewing on his meal. "Before you were born, your mom and I weren't on good terms and we had problems in our relationship. There were many different things we never agreed on, we were going to go our separate ways but we later decided that the only sol

    Miriam had sauntered inside the house to glimpse her son answering the house call line. She quickly trudged towards him before collecting the phone from him. "Henry, who were you talking to?" She asked him. "I don't know, he says he wants to talk to you!" Her son responded as she slowly placed the phone to her ear."Hello, who is on the line?" Miriam uttered questionably on the phone."Who was that kid who answered the phone, Miriam? Is he your son with Carlos or is he the rapist's son?" The caller asked and that had left Miriam beyond shocked.She blinked her eyes before responding."You have nothing better to do with your life, you shouldn't have to mess with other people's lives too!" Miriam told the stranger on the phone."I'm not messing with you, Miriam. In fact, I can give you information and answers from the past that you still can't forget." The person on the other line uttered."Hey, tell me who you are and what you know about my past?" Miriam asked with a loud voice. "Yo

    The car of Carlos parked in front of the company. He pulled out his key from the side of the wheels before locking his car. "I seem to be lying more often to Miriam, and every day the guilt becomes stronger that I just can't take it anymore," Carlos said to Jeffery who had also gotten down from his car. "Commonly, the person who had called Miriam could have been one of our employees who were present at the party. You shouldn't be bothered!" Jeffery said. "I wish it was that simple," Carlos responded back."What if it was Christian who had called her? He might be trying to take Miriam from you by tarnishing your reputation!" Jeffrey suggested. "That's impossible, I have had many confrontations with him and that is not his call if that guy wants to say or do something to me. He just does it to my face!" Carlos told him. "It's Joseph," Carlos finally realized before sighing angrily. "Joseph, I thought you said all that he wanted was just money from you?" Jeffery questioned. "Yes,

    Before Miriam left for her room to sleep. She had decided to go talk to her son and maybe admit guilt for yelling at him. She had tried to pull the door knob open but it seemed locked from the inside. She softly placed multiple knocks on his door while she called his name but he kept mute. "Henry, can you please open the door? I'm so sorry for shouting at you earlier today! Mummy is deeply sorry, I just happened to have lost my temper!" Miriam uttered behind the door before placing another knock for the tenth time but got no response."Miriam, can you just talk to your son tomorrow morning? I honestly think he might have fallen asleep already," Eleanor had said rubbing her hands together. "Eleanor, I'm truly sorry that I had shouted at him but I was just so upset with everything. I didn't mean to hurt him but I just couldn't control myself." She had said to her sister."You know what? I honestly feel like there is a different reason why you lost your temper at your son!" Eleanor sa

    "Carlos, are you serious right now? Did you give that stupid and ungrateful guy such an amount of money? What!" Jeffery exclaimed in shock and annoyance."That's the only thing I could think of to keep his big mouth shut," Carlos said. "I'm not sure that you did the right thing, Carlos, especially now that he would get a taste of so much money. That amount you gave him was just too much," Jeffrey uttered yet again. "My mother doesn't even know anything about this and I know that she would be very furious when she finds out that I issued that cheque from the company's joint account!" Carlos explained and that had made Jeffery to groan exhaustively by all this that was happening. Meanwhile, Joseph had gone to the bank to cash out the amount of money. "I want to cash this cheque, and please make it fast!" He told the lady at the counter. "Sir, can you please follow the line?" A lady behind him said. "I was here before you," Joseph lamented with widened eyes. "No, I was here first!

    Later that night, Carlos trudged down the stairs to make himself a cup of coffee only to come in touch with his mother who had a glass cup filled with steaming tea in her grip. "Carlos, if the bank hadn't called earlier today. I wouldn't have known about such an amount of money, what did you need such an amount for?" Gina asked her son who rubbed his face before responding. "Uhmmm___ mother," Carlos voiced out but went mute right after."Carlos?" His mother called yet again."Uhhh mum, I invested in a certain company and I just didn't want to bother you about it because I already took out a loan and needed to pay up after I lost so much money!" Carlos lied. "But why didn't you tell me?" Gina asked yet again. "Didn't you hear me mom? I was so worried that you would get upset with me." Carlos said. "You have money Carlos and I would always give you money for business if you wanted, what was the reason to have collected a huge loan?" Gina pointed out with a frown. "I'm so sorry mom

    Miriam had gotten home to notice her sister and friend watching the news. "You are here Miriam," Doris said the moment she noticed her friend. "Hey," Eleanor simply said."I'm glad that you are home because Carlos has just been arrested by the police!" She blurted out while Miriam gaze was fixed to the television. Miriam's heart skipped a beat as she turned her attention to the television. The news anchor's voice filled the room, reporting on the arrest of Carlos, a name she recognized so well. The screen displayed footage of a man being led away in handcuffs by police officers."I honestly had no idea that he would be handcuffed in front of everybody," Miriam said, a little bit guilty. Miriam's voice trembled as she spoke, the weight of the situation sinking in. "Well, I think that's good. That way, other criminals like him would know exactly what would happen to them when they do similar things." Doris said with no remorse.Miriam nodded slowly, her mind racing with a mix of e

    Meanwhile, Gina and her son walked inside the company, they discussed. "I thought that you weren't joining the press conference?" Gina questioned while she held her expensive purse tightly. Carlos looked up at her with a serious expression. "I just thought that it was best I keep myself busy because it takes my mind off Miriam." He replied. "By the way, regarding your court case. You don't have to worry about it because I promise to do everything for the court to dismiss your case, okay?" Gina told her son. Carlos nodded, a mixture of gratitude and worry on his face. "Thanks, Mom. I appreciate your support, but I can't shake off the feeling that things might not go as smoothly as we hope. The evidence against me seems pretty strong."Gina sighed and placed a reassuring hand on Carlos's shoulder. "I understand your concerns, Carlos.

Unable to face the solitude of his empty home, he sought solace in the familiar comfort of the bar.As he stepped out of the car, the cool night air enveloped him, causing him to shiver slightly. With a deep sigh, he walked towards the entrance with Jeffrey beside him, the dimly lit sign above casting a faint glow on the pavement.

The streets were quiet and the city lights cast a dim glow on the deserted sidewalks."Carlos, hey, it's late!" Jeffery said the moment they arrived in front of Miriam's apartment."Miriam might think you are here to kidnap Henry!" Jeffery added and Carlos would have chuckled at his statement if things were alright. "I just want to see Henry and not cause trouble!" Carlos said. He glanced at Jeffery, who was looking slightly worried."I understand your concern, Jeffery," Carlos replied, trying to reassure his friend. "But you know how much Henry means to me." Carlos added.Jeffery nodded reluctantly, understanding the depth of Carlos's feelings for his son. "I get it, man. We can do this tomorrow. Why don't we go home and come back!"

    “Doris, please take care of Henry while I’m away. Okay!” Miriam said, grabbing her bag to leave the house.“Sure, I would make sure that he gets his bath,” Doris said but their little discussion was interrupted when Eleanor walked inside followed by Christian and the lawyer. “Miriam, you have got a guest,” Eleanor informed her sister before she could leave. “Miriam, Carlos had done something through a high source of justice!” Christian voiced.“And what’s that?” Miriam asked.“Based on everything that the lawyer had gotten from the court, it says that Carlos has already admitted the incident to you and that you have forgiven him before you even got married!” Christian voiced out and that had left Miriam’s mouth to hang open. “But that’s not true, he merely even told me that he was the one who had violated me. Oh my Goodness!” Miriam said, rubbing her forehead. “That’s a great defense!” Christian voiced out.“Your ex-husband is such a liar,” Doris said, wiggling her head in shame.

    Carlos was staring at the family portrait in his hands when one of the workers at his home approached him. “Mr. Carlos, someone is here...” she was going to say but the presence of Eleanor had caught her short. “Eleanor?” Carlos simply said. “I came here to talk to you Carlos because I love my sister and my nephew so much!” Eleanor said.“I have a favor to ask!” She said, “Do you know what, Carlos? Every time I look at Henry, I feel very bad to know that he is suffering, and I feel hurt as well when I see that my sister is hurting deep inside,” Eleanor uttered.“I honestly don't want her to hurt,” Carlos said.“Is that so? Then I think that you should probably give her what she wants, you should cooperate with Miriam so that the annulment of your marriage would become quicker!” Eleanor said,“But I don't want to lose my family!” Carlos said confidently. “We all know that the court would soon annul your marriage but that doesn't mean that you won't see my sister or Henry ever again

We both know that Miriam truly wants to talk to him!” Eleanor voiced.“You know what, you are the only one who is okay with what Miriam wants!” Doris said, she slowly rolled her eyes at Carlos before walking away.“Daddy?” the little boy called in happiness before running to engulf Carlos in a hug. “Daddy, is it true that you and mother would finally get to talk?” the little boy asked with a widened smile.“Yes, Henry but your mother is not home right now!” Ca
