Arya Gomez traced the face of the little baby in the photo and let out a rueful sigh. She had regrets about her past and the way she’d treated her only son years ago and now...he was the richest man in the world.

She turned the other page and smiled when she saw the photo of his first birthday. She’d been sober that day and had decided to bake him a cake but it had turned into a disaster and she’d ended up getting him a cupcake with a little candle in the middle.

Her little boy had been ecstatic to see the cake and he’d flashed her a gorgeous dimpled smile which she’d captured immediately. He didn’t smile often so when he did, she just had to take that picture.

She turned to the last page which was a picture of him,his assistant and their little girl as they dined at Twitches. She was a grandma but she’d never know her granddaughter because to her precious son...his mother was dead to him.

“Hey Mom,I can’t find my car keys.” Her daughter Leticia said as she walked into the gazebo. "I

    Elyon woke up with a start to the sound of glass breaking. She turned on the lamp on her nightstand and checked her alarm clock. It was just two am on Sunday morning which made her wonder if it was from the next house or where?. She heard the noise again and scrambled out of bed then ran out of her room barefoot to Miesa’s room only to collide with a hard body in the hallway and she fell back on her ass. It was definitely a man dressed in black and he had a mask on so she couldn’t see his face. He stalked menacingly towards her and she moved back unable to get up. “Who..who are you and what do you want?”. Elyon tried to sound brave but her voice shook. She hoped her baby was okay. “I’m here to deliver a message to you.” The man’s voice was so deep and distorted that she could hardly make out what he was saying. “What?”. She had to ask again. “Mommy!”. Miesa screamed out from somewhere. "Mommy!”. Elyon shot up from her position on the floor and made to run to Miesa but the huge

    Cesar’s blood ran cold when he saw the woman with his daughter. What was she doing here and how did she find Miesa?. She was smiling at something Miesa was saying which made him furious. Why was she acting like a saint when she was anything but?being called the devil’s spawn was too small a word for her.He marched across the room to where they sat, towering over them which made them look up.“Daddy!”. Miesa squealed in delight and flung herself at him very happy to see him.“Hey princess.” Cesar didn’t tear his eyes away from the woman sitting down staring at him with the same eyes-electric blue. He hated her fucking guts.“Daddy meet my new friend,Mrs Gomez." Miesa told him. "She said she’s a friend of yours?”.“Where’s doctor Rothschild?”. He ignored her question.“She went to see how momma is doing.” Miesa replied. "Do you know her daddy?”. She pointed at Arya who was now on her feet.“Yes princess I do.” Cesar said grudgingly wishing he didn’t.“Oh..Mr Sandoval, you’re here.” Doc

    “Miss,Mr Sandoval is here to see you.” A maid informed Antoinette.“Let him in!”. She ordered looking excited.The maid curtsied and left.Antoinette used her hands to brush her hair back and straightened her dress then she crossed her legs and noisily cleared her throat.Cesar walked into the drawing room and the maid closed the door. He stood there at the door not making any effort to walk further into the room. He was sure that he’d strangle her if he did and he’d rather not spend the rest of his life in jail because of her.“Come in Darling.” She waved him over.“I’m not here to chit chat with you Annie." Cesar informed her in a cold voice. "Ellie’s in hospital.”“Oh my gosh!". She placed her hand on her chest in horror. "Is she okay?”. She rose from her seat.Cesar shrugged. “She’s in a coma.”“What happened?”. She moved closer to him.“She was attacked”. Cesar replied. He stared intently at her face not wanting to miss anything but her face was blank. She was a very good actress

    “Jerry”. Miesa breathed and scrambled to her feet.“Hello Miesa.” Jericho greeted. "Can I join you?”.Both girls nodded.“Thanks.” Jericho sat on the grass and let out a sigh.Miesa sat down beside him and exchanged puzzled glances with Beth. They wondered if he’d heard anything else apart from that.Jericho was in first grade which surprised the girls because first graders didn’t like slumming with their juniors.“So you were saying something about getting your parents married?”. He asked her.“Um..yes." Miesa nodded. "You..heard everything?.”“Just the last part.” He said.“Oh.” Miesa said. "Um.. you know my name.”Jericho stared at her waiting for her to finish but she was obviously done.“The whole world knows your name now Miesa.” He told her. "You’re Cesari Sandoval’s daughter.”“You said something about faking illness?”. Beth spoke up.“Yes.” He nodded.“How?”. The girls asked.Jericho shrugged. “The same happened to my mom and dad so I pretended to be very sick. My uncle is a

    Cesar got to Miesa’s school five minutes before the closing time and parked in the empty lot. He pulled up the lever under the seat to get more comfortable so he could stretch his legs. He was tired and sleepy but he couldn’t sleep.He took out his phone,went through his contacts and dialed John’s number again. He needed to know if another actress had been found or whether he was going to walk away from the movie.“Finally!." John grunted in exasperation. "What made you change your mind?”.“I haven’t changed my mind John. I’m calling about yours.” He said and let out a loud yawn.“Whoops! Someone’s been depriving himself of sleep.” John said. "You taking care of a baby Cesar?”.“Yeah. My baby girl. Don’t digress.” He rumbled.“Er..well you know we had to postpone the filming of the movie because of you right?." John asked.“Yeah. I told you I had a family emergency". Cesar said irritated. "What’s your plan now john? do I walk away or stay?. It won’t hurt my career in anyway.”“You’re

    “I’m sorry to bother you Mr Sandoval but I really need to talk to you.” Mirabelle told him. She glanced at Miesa who was asleep.“Okay. It’s no bother." Cesar said. "What about?”.“I won’t keep you. Let’s talk in my office.” She said.“Lead the way.” He said.Mirabelle turned and walked ahead of him. She had to tell him now or else she won’t get the chance to again.She didn’t plan on seeing the man who’d broken her heart into a million pieces years ago. If she wanted to move on..then she had to clear everything that was weighing on her mind. They got to her office and she gestured for him to sit on the sofa which he did but was careful not to jostle Miesa.Mirabelle leaned against her desk and crossed her ankles. She took a deep breath and let it out.Show time.“Chiara..is supposed to give you this herself but um..she died in a car accident two months ago.” She informed him in a flat voice.Cesar’s brow furrowed. “Chiara?”.

    Twelve years agoMirabelle Rivera was your typical high school plain jane with one friend, invisible but was the most brilliant student in Glenwood High school.She was invisible until she was asked to tutor the school’s baddest and of course most handsome boy in history of GHS;Cesari Islan Sandoval. Cesar was failing calculus and without that he couldn’t graduate with his peers so the principal had to practically beg Mirabelle to help him out which she grudgingly agreed to and she became his tutor.“Here you are!”. Mirabelle exclaimed when she finally found Cesar at the back of the school…smoking.Cesar glanced at her, shook his head and ignored her. She wasn’t worth his time. No one was worth his freaking time.“You smoke?”. She stared at him in shock.He didn’t answer but was shocked when she grabbed the cigarette from between his lips and he watched as she threw it on the ground and crushed it with her sneaker.If looks could kill..she’d be a puddle on the floor but she wasn’t int

    Mirabelle walked into the living room with a smile on her face but it soon faded when she saw the clothes strewn around on the floor then her gaze travelled to the couch and her heart stopped for a nano second before it picked up speed, thumping madly in her chest as she stared at her boyfriend and her cousin cuddling. Chiara was probably naked and so was Cesar though they were covered with a blanket. She stumbled backwards only to crash into the coffee table which roused the lovers from sleep. Cesar woke up first and he looked disoriented like he couldn’t remember where he was and then he held up a hand to his temple and groaned in pain. Chiara opened one eye then the other. She stretched like a cat but was shocked when Cesar pushed her off the couch and he shot up. “What…" He paused then looked down at his body. He was surprised to see that he was just in his briefs then he looked up at Chiara. "What happened here?”. He demanded in a husky voice. “We had sex. That’s what happene

    Months later “Cesar!”. Ellie screamed. "Cesar!”. Cesar rushed into the closet and stopped short when he saw Ellie holding her stomach and she was breathing heavily. He looked down at the floor and made a face. “Did you pee on yourself?”. He asked. “My water just broke idiot!". She snapped. "The baby’s coming!”. Cesar froze as he stared at her. “What?”. “Cesar!”. She screamed. Cesar jumped. “What do I do?”. “He’s asking me stupid questions!." She exclaimed through gritted teeth as she tried not to scream out. "Hospital!”. Cesar nodded and yelled for Maia to get the baby bag before he proceeded to lift Ellie up in his arms but he didn’t expect her to beat him up. “Hey!what now!”. He protested. "I'm taking you to the hospital." “I’m in my underwear idiot!." She gestured to her body. Cesar looked at her and bit his cheek to stop himself from laughing then he nodded and went to get her a dress. “I have to change first." Ellie said. “You’re cranky." He stated drily and went to

    Cesar stood on the balcony just staring at nothing in particular. It was the last day of their stay in South Africa and they'd enjoyed every bit of it. Sun City was fun but they had to go back home and he had to go back to work.He and Ellie had gone for her check up today and everything was looking good but Ellie hadn't wanted to know the sex of the baby so he'd told the doctor to whisper it in his ear which made him smile like a Cheshire cat."You're not allowed to do that." Ellie had protested hitting him immediately they walked out of the office. "That's called cheating.""No it's not." He'd complained. "I have a right to know if I want to."She had huffed which made him smile. She went silent for a long time even as they got into the car and Warren drove away from the hospital so he turned to look at her."You're not mad, are you?". He asked. "I can unknow it if you want."That brought a half smile to her face. "Unknow it?there's no word like that." She scoffed. "No I'm not mad.

    Tristan dreaded going back to the home he'd grown up in. He'd been treated worse than a slave. Spat on, abused and whatnot and he'd thought he'd never have to come back but here he was staring at the house whilst seated in the car. He'd been too excited to see Abby so he'd left his aunt Evie's house two hours earlier forgetting that Abby's school didn't let out until two pm and it was just one pm so he had to wait one hour before he could see her. His phone rang bringing him out of his thoughts and he took it out of his pocket, sighed then answered the call."Hey Gwen." He said. Ever since he started following her on Instagram and other media platforms, she somehow got her hands on his phone number and had been disturbing him since then. He liked her, she was a very nice girl and all that but he didn't want to get her hopes up continuing this charade. She was just eight years old so she had no business crushing on him or any boy for that matter."Hi! Are you busy?". She asked."Yea

    The next day “Oh my God!". Ellie exclaimed suddenly as she stared at her iPad. She looked horrified and he wondered what she'd seen that could have made her look that way. “Are you okay?Is it the baby?”. Cesar asked. He hoped it wasn't the baby. They were still within the vicinity of the airport and a hospital surely wasn't nearby that they could take her to. "Talk to me." They were on their way to Evie’s from the airport and the kids were asleep. “No! Look." She thrust her iPad in front of him. "Cassandra Nash and her family are dead...all of them.” Cesar read the news article and felt no remorse whatsoever that Cassandra was dead. Infact he wanted to celebrate and shout from the rooftop that they were finally free. He still had enemies but they were ones who wouldn't dream of trying to hurt him and his family. Not if they valued their lives. “You’re not saying anything." Ellie spoke up when he kept staring at the news article and pictures. Cesar returned her iPad. “I have noth

    A Week later“Sir...Dom has arrived.” David informed Cesar.“Finally! I thought he’d never get here." Cesar rolled his eyes. "Bring him here.” It had only been a week of waiting for the guy to finally get his butt here but it had felt like years and Cesar hated waiting for anyone. If not that he really needed the guy, he'd have just let him go. Find someone else to do the job.David nodded and left. Five minutes later he returned with Dominic.“Thank you David." Cesar waved him away. "Sit Dom.” He gestured to the chair in front of his desk. "I’ve been waiting for you.”“Why?”. Dom asked.“David didn’t tell you?”. Cesar arched a brow.Dom shrugged.Cesar picked up some pictures and passed it to Dom who took it and checked it out. The indifferent expression on his face turned stormy which surprised Cesar.“Cassandra Nash.” Dom spat.“Yes.” He nodded.“You know her?.” Dom asked.“Not personally." Cesar said. "I have scores to settle with her.”“She hurt you?”. Dom rumbled.“Tried to blow

    Cesar was worried about Ellie because she'd refused to go out after that bombing incident. She also had nightmares about Cassandra trying to kill her and it didn't help that Tristan seemed to agree with her that the woman would stop at nothing until Ellie was dead. He didn't know why Cass was hell bent on seeing Ellie dead even after she found out the whole truth about how Belle tried to kill Miesa. Granted, Belle was her niece and she wouldn't want to see her hurt but better Belle being in a coma than Miesa dead. He tapped his finger against his chin in thought as he stared at the TV without really seeing it. It'd been a few weeks since the incident but it still seemed like it happened yesterday. People were still talking about it and he knew that more one television presenter wanted to interview him to talk about that particular incident but as usual he'd declined. They knew better than to ask for an interview but they did so anyway which annoyed him. Thankfully they didn't ambu

    “Arya...calm down I’m fine." Cesar told her. "No, there’s no need to come over.” He didn't know why he'd unblocked her number but now he was wishing he hadn't. He'd been talking to her for almost ten minutes now and he felt a headache coming on.Arya kept rambling on the phone making Cesar sigh. She was clearly very worried and wouldn’t rest until she saw him. He didn't want her to come. She'd want to hug him and he wouldn't be able to stand it.“Mom!”. He cut her off.Arya went silent.“Thank you." He breathed. "I’m fine. I’ll send you a photo if you want proof.”“That’s fine." She said in a shaky voice. "I’m so glad you’re okay Cesar.”“Yeah.” He muttered. "Thanks for calling."“Can I send you ice cream? I know you like rocky road.”“Uh…okay". Cesar said. "Sure.”“Give me...ten minutes. Kisses.” She hung up.Cesar dropped his phone on his bedside table with a sigh.“You okay?I heard you yelling at someone.” Ellie walked into the bedroom.“I wasn’t yelling…per se." He said. "Arya wou

    Cesar and Ellie took Miesa for her monthly checkup and they were very happy when the doctor told them that Miesa’s cancer was in remission but she’d need to continue maintenance therapy for a couple years until they were sure it wouldn’t come back. It was wonderful news for them especially Miesa who'd been worried she'd never get to live forever with her family.“I’m so happy mommy, daddy." Miesa smiled big at them as they walked out of the hospital. "I’m free!”.“Yes baby." Ellie smiled back. "I’m happy too.”Cesar’s phone rang as they got close to the waiting car. He took it out of his pocket and frowned when he saw Tristan’s name on the screen and picked it. Ellie and Miesa decided to go get ice cream while he talked on the phone.“Hey kid, what’s up?”. He asked.“Dad…please please tell me you’re not in the car right now?”. Tristan’s voice shook.“Uh...no. why?”. He frowned.“There’s a bomb. Don’t get…”As if on cue, there was a sudden explosion that threw Cesar off his feet and he

    “How’s Elyon doing?”. Oliver asked Cesar. They were on FaceTime.“Fine. Thank God I got there the time I did or it’d have been a different story.” He said.“And the guys?”. Oliver inquired.“Dead.” Cesar replied flatly. He couldn't have let any one of them go free after what they did. It was not possible.Oliver’s eyes widened. “All of them?”.“Yes. Including...my dad.” Cesar said. Even now he still couldn't believe everything that had happened. That maniac had been his father who'd hurt his mother and his mother had hurt him because he looked like his father and then he killed his father because he'd kidnapped his wife and hurt his mother for the second time. Not that he gave a damn about Arya now… far from it. The damage she'd done to him was enough to last him two lifetimes.“What do you mean? I thought you said your father was dead?”. Oliver looked confused. "I didn't know a person…"“Oh that was just wishful thinking." He stated drily. "Arya told me something else.”“Wow. So you
