Aiden stepped out of the car and looked up at the ladies, Nicole could be seen smiling and waving at him from behind. Aiden smiled at her and looked at Kathleen.

"I thought Noelle was joking when she said you were coming."

Kat rolled her eyes at him and started descending from the stairs, is he the someone Noelle told her was coming to take them?. Noelle is unbelievable.

Nicole said once she reached down, "Hi, dad. Thanks for coming."

Kat turned and looked at both of them, she wondered why Nicole was calling him dad. And then, she was going to ask Nicole how long they had been speaking to each other.

Driving through the driveway, Aiden viewed Kat from the front mirror, Kat was looking out of the window and the atmosphere in the car was tense.

He was about to make the greatest mistake of his life, she knew that.It hurts her a lot that Dimitri had to push her away like that, they've been friends since childhood not until she began falling in love with him, she hadn't the courage to tell him yet but she thought he would finally come to his senses and begin to love her back soon.Reaching the last stair, Elysia looked up at her and sighed."Oh baby, I heard you're sick."Elysia said, coming to hug her.

    Aiden asked curtly, "I'll eat it if she wants me to eat it. Why do you care anyway?."Kat bent down, hurt. Nicole was looking at both of them, Clara was smiling nonstop.Dylan quickly spoke up, and everyone looked at him, he started, "Uh, well, I'm up. I have an announcement, and that is for those that have room, there is a delectable cheese plate, but uh also I think it's time for us to raise a glass to the chef, my wife, love of my life."Everyone raised their glasses to Noelle and cheered, then Aiden spoke up again. "And to my girlfriend. Clara. For helping the staff prepare this dinner."There was silence."No one's clapping?." He asked and Cora cleared her throat and said, "I think you should just shut up, Aiden. This is not a party for your girlfriend."Aiden wanted to retort and Fiona yelled, "If you don't want to stop fighting in this blissful evening, I will throw you out."The kids flinched.And that silenced all, none

    Awake in the hospital, the first face he saw was Clara's. He sighed and tried to sit up, Clara quickly helped him up."Why's my body so weak? ugh!.""C'mon. You'll be fine. The doctor assured me that you'll be fine. I'm so sorry, Aiden. I didn't know you had an allergy."Aiden looked at her, "Are you kidding me?. You knew when we dated, you, me. Gosh, I didn't know you'd forget such a trivial thing. Well, you're aren't at fault, I ate it anyway."The doctor walked in and stood in front of Aiden."Good morning, sir. How do you feel?.""Horrible," Aiden replied flatly."You were lucky she used the EpiPen on you, if not...I don't know what would have happened. You have a severe reaction, please don't endanger your life again."Aiden remembered how Kat saved his life yesterday. She'd cared, he was relieved that there was some humanity in her after all. Her behavior recently had been a total no, making him feel like she's a stranger.The doctor asked, "Can I see you alone, Aiden Smith?."A

    "You said you're Nicole's mom?."Nicole's former teacher asked again, as they walked through the empty hallway. The teacher had been asking the same question since she decided to take Kat to her office.Finally, the teacher pushed the large doors open and they walked in. She leads her to a seat opposite her. When they settled down, she adjusted her glasses a bit and cleared her throat."Well, don't mind my repeated questions, it's just that you've never been to this place before. I doubted if she had a mother."It wasn't funny, the teacher only chuckled and sighed nervously."I'm sorry for that. Why do you wanna see me?."Kat relaxed her back at the chair and gulped down. "There is some unusual behavior that my child exhibits. She acts more of an adult than a child. As her teacher, I want to know why. Don't get me wrong, I just happened to know about her recently."The teacher waited for some time before removing her glasses, she simply dropped them on the desk."Did Lucas send you?."

I will stay with my dad."Nicole stepped back and started moving backward, she went to stand with Aiden and said."I'm serious."Kat wiped her tears away and said, "You want to do this.""Yes, mom. I've only stayed with you all my life and you lied to me. When I suspected he was my father, you still lied to me."Aiden sighed, the more Nicole talked about being lied to, the angrier he got. He said, "If you're going to get married to Dimitri...see me in court cos I'm getting custody of my child."There was silence. Everyone gasped, Dylan quickly interjected, "Aiden, you don't have to do this. Please reconsider."Aiden looked away from him and turned his gaze at Kathleen."Since she thinks she can do whatever she wants to, I too can do whatever I want.""Are you sure this is what you want?."That question was asked by Kathleen.

    "What do we do?. He might change his mind, Dylan is speaking to him in his room."Clara was restless, she was walking to and fro in the room while Fiona just sat there watching her. Clara can't believe she didn't think of Aiden and Kathleen having a child earlier.It was a big blow to her, but the fact that Aiden hated Kat after today gave her a bonus, it was now that she would have to take action.What will she do?. Oh, she remembered someone who could help her. Her plans were deeper now, to get pregnant for Aiden, it was a way to tie herself to him."Just get out of my sight!." Fiona yelled at her. Clara turned immediately.Clara noticed Fiona had been silent for a while, it didn't matter to her, maybe she was thinking of a solution. She always has a solution.Clara asked, "What do we suggest, mom?."Fiona only smiled, "Nothing."Then Fiona's phone began ringing, Clara looked at the phone on the table and then at Fiona.

Aiden could not ascertain where he was, he wasn't in his room, and he was confused.He sat up, and that was when he noticed that he wasn't putting on any of his clothes. His eyes ran around the room, searching for his clothes."Oh shit!."They were littered all over the floor."Fuck!."He knew what he did, he must have found some bitch out there yesterday, eish!.

What happened in high school that caused such insecurity?.That has been the question running through her mind."Mom, will I sleep at her place now?." Nicole tactically asked.

She ordered.Lilly and

    "Nicole.." Lilly screamed, running towards her, she closes her locker and turned around."Xup, Lilly."

She'd asked to see the only friend who helped me with my school work."

She'd won so many trophies for the school."I think you would have to come to my house after school." Nicole said as they both walked away."Well, I've never met your mom. I know you must take after her," Lilly mused. Her friend was perfect, she had the perfect family, mom, dad, grandparents but Lilly never got to meet her dad, she only had her mom

    "What do you want me to do now?."Kathleen turned to Nicole, she had been begging her to allow her sleep in a friend's place."Nic, I do not want to talk about this anymore." Kathleen huffed and said, then started walking up the stairs.She walked into Fiona's room and sat down beside her.Nicole came running in, but halted when she saw Kat sitting beside Fiona.The both older women were now looking at her, Kat said, "Nicole, are you here to ask your grandma to beg me?."Nicole almost broke into tears."Mom.."Fiona looked from kat to Nicole."What is going on?."Kat answered, looking at Nicole, "Your precious granddaughter is begging me to let her sleep over a friend's place. When I was at her age, I'd never think of that," She finished and Nicole looked down."Who's this friend?, because I know you don't have friends," Aiden asked, making everyone look at him.

    Noelle ran outside, cutting Aiden off on what he was about to say to Dylan."Did you know she remembered?."Aiden and Dylan were confused."She remembered what?." He'd asked.Noelle breathed out. The way she ran had made her out of breath. She was trying to calm down too."Kat got back her memory."Aiden's eyes widened as he took up the run inside.Dylan and Noelle looked at each other for another moment without speaking to each other.He came closer to her and picked up her hand."I'm sorry that I walked out on you earlier." He said, lowly.Noelle smiled and hugged him quickly."I see that you are happy over the news."She disengaged from the hug."All my life, my life has evolved around Kathleen. I shared in her pains and in her happy days. I never really cared if I lived for her but I am glad. Do you know why?. She is fine. She's okay. And her sorrow days are over now.""You're a good friend. You've stood by her and you've fulfilled what a sister would do."He tucked her hair behin

    "Helena?." Kat called."Kathleen," Helena called back."Wow. You two know each other, but I thought you lost your memory forever," Clara said and earned a glare from Kat and Helena."You. How dare you?. How dare you destroy my life?." Kat fumed and started getting up. Her eyes had turned stone cold and her hands were clenched."Not only did you destroy Natalie's life, you went ahead to destroy hers?. Why do you keep hurting the people I care for?." Helena stated firmly. Her guns were firmly pointed at Clara."If you come close to me, I will kill you both." Clara stated with fear.Just then, the police came running around them with their guns. All pointing their guns at Clara."Get down now!." One of the policemen yelled at Clara.It didn't take long before Clara realized that she lost. She had lost her battle. Her eyes were fixated at Aiden who had come running to Kathleen. A tear dropped as she saw both hugged and Aiden kissed her passionately.Her face went red.She screamed."Noooo

    She snatched the binocular away and rushed outside.She viewed from the front porch.She didn't know this person.Who's this person?.She squinted her eyes and took a look again.That face?.What?.…...End of recapKathleen stood at the middle of the field, looking towards the direction of Clara in which she had taken in. She breathed out, watching her come closer. She'd thought that Clara was one tough girl who fought a million times after seeing lots of huge fighting men beside her, but she thought wrong, Clara was an opposite.A girl who had a silk skin, beautiful eyes and innocent looks. She'd imagined if she at all had left a prison. Clara was beautiful and classic and…"Wow..you look different." Clara cut off her thoughts with a strong voice.Okay, Kathleen underestimated her looks. She's really rude.Kathleen didn't wanna go round the bush but said in a very straight tone."Where's my daughter?."Clara smirked."Ooh. You've got some balls now. I didn't expect to see you.""You

    She reached her room and sat down, her eyes looking into the phone every minute, waiting for any call.Suddenly, Aiden walked in. She breathed out and didn't look at him.Aiden walks further and stands in front of her, but doesn't touch her.Aiden mumbled, "Okay, I'm sorry." He apologized.Kat looked up, in her eyes, he was tired. He wanted everything to end, it was like everything was not gonna ever end in his family. His family was never gonna be together and his enemies made sure of that."You don't have to apologize.." She said but paused midway and looked up at him. Her eyes glinted, although she knew nothing about this woman, she was bent on getting her hands on her. She'd wished she found a way to catch her.Aiden bent down quickly, "I promise to get her out of the way, nothing will happen to you or our daughter." He sincerely stated.Kat shrugged."Do everything you can, Aiden."Aiden smiled and got up. He needed to shower and get ready for what is to come. He pulled off his w

    "Kathleen, Kathleen…"Nicole called but Kat didn't look up. She was speaking to one of the maids in the kitchen, and Nicole was surprised.She walked into the kitchen and touched her and Kat turned instantly."I've been calling you, you seem not to answer."Kat was confused, "Call me?.""I've been screaming your name for like ages," Nicole repeated.It then dawned on Kat that she was called Kathleen, not Lisa."Oh my god!. I'm so sorry. I've not been acquainted with the name yet. You know I lived with this name for five years."Noelle nodded understandably."Aiden asked me to remind you of the doctor's appointment. He just left for his office now,""How could he just leave like that?, he was supposed to take me there," She said, frowning."It was urgent, anyway I could take you there and maybe we could catch up like old times, I will tell you about yourself to help you remember,"Kat smiled at Noelle, she appreciated her, "Thank you, Noelle.
