"Please let him go," Noelle repeated."What are you saying? He kidnapped me and needs to be handed to the authorities," Kathleen shouted at her. Is she crazy?"Don't you see it? He's your brother, he has suffered a lot. Don't you see it from his angle?." Noelle yelled at Aiden.Everyone was stunned except Kat, who was beginning to see reasons with her. Is she really serious right now?"Dylan is crazy. No matter how much you seem to love him, he won't see it, he will hurt you!." Helena relayed, getting impatient."He won't hurt you if he loves you. If you guys had made him stay relevant, he wouldn't think you hated him. He is human, he has suffered enough, please" she clasped her hands together, looking at each one of them, "He will leave and won't bother you anymore. Leave him please." Kathleen knew that what her friend was saying was the truth but the way she was sounding so defensive of him only meant something fishy. Her eyes studied her all this while, but she wouldn't say a word

Kat's pov"We have to talk," Aiden stated. I blinked and turned to him. "Oh yes, I'm fine," I said, sarcastically rolling my eyes. "Oh. Um. I'm sorry. Are you hurt anywhere? Did the doctor examine you?" He asked, worriedly. "I'm fine, Aiden. We can't talk in the hospital." "Get up, you're coming with me." He said, and helped me up. He was holding my hand firmly and as he made his way toward the door, the doctor walked in. "She can't go now. She needs rest." The doctor said, "She will rest at home. Is there something that I don't know about?." I looked up at the doctor shaking my head at her not to say a word. "N..no sir. Alright, I'll see you later, Ms. Kathleen." I smiled at her before Aiden started walking out again. Aiden pushes the glass door open and takes a right turn instead of left." Where are we going?." I take a glance at the way leading to my house, trying to catch up with his fast pace. "Slow down," I growled at his muscular back. He slows down a little, but his pa

"Just like that? What about you and Aiden?." I rolled my eyes at her, "Have you forgotten?. I do not want him anymore." I replied Noelle as I tied up my shoelaces. "What are you doing? Can't you give him a chance?." I frowned and looked at her. "What do you mean? I...thought you supported me. Why are you asking me to forgive him?" I asked her in disbelief. "Sorry. It's just that Aiden has gone through a lot. He deserves to be loved, to be fought for." "Yeah. I'd fought for us. You were there when I won us over." She nodded negatively and stepped forward to my front. "Then give him a chance to fight for you." "You don't understand, do you? I said I didn't want him anymore. Heck, I love him so much, but when I look at him, I see my parents in front of him. Do you know how close I am to them? You knew I'd do anything to see them, but he took them away from me and I see them no more. I'm leaving, and I'm gonna call Lucas to pick me up tomorrow." "What? So soon?." "Fuck, don't act l

He was by far the richest businessman any man knew but couldn't capture the heart of his beloved. All he sat and thought of was her smile, her violet innocent eyes, her mild and spotless skin, and her laugh.The way he met her on the plane, took solace in her soul and let her bask in the feeling of him. And all he could also think of was carrying her into the bathroom and bathing her in his arms.The scenes of their sex escapades replayed in his mind like it was being watched on television. Today, he was gonna lose her forever. She was leaving him and wouldn't be seen anymore.His hands trembled against the hard bottle as he poured more wine into the glass cup. He raised the cup to his lips and gulped it down once in his system and as he dropped it back on the floor, he tried to take up the bottle to pour more wine inside the cup, but a han

Nicole jumps on the bed and yells, "Mommy." As she giggled, Kathleen said, "Happy birthday, baby." She let out a loud laugh to the delighted child. Nicole's face reappears in the frame along with Lucas's. "Are you coming home?" "Are you kidding me?," she scoffed in response to Lucas's question. "My daughter's birthday is today. This is the most absurd question ever," Kathleen informed him. He smiled, "I'm sorry.""It's alright. I'm already done with the board members, I'll be flying out immediately." "I can't wait to see you, mommy." The kid said and she smiled, "I missed you bunny and I can't wait to see you too.""All right, we have to go on with the preparation now. Be careful. " Lucas mumbled and hung up. She pivoted to gaze at her secretary."Ms. Kat, you have a meeting with Mr. Carlos and..." the young girl said, opening a file. With a chuckle on her face, Kathleen pretended to yawn, interrupting her."Sandra, today's my baby's birthday. Cancel my schedules and prepare, we'

Kathleen rose from her chair and ran a hand through her curled and glossed hair. She grinned slightly as she saw her reflection in the mirror. She didn't seem all that unattractive, did she?"You still haven't lost your touch, eh," She addressed Carolyn, who was peering over her shoulder. Carolyn remarked, "I believe that should be your thank you," and she laughed quietly."And you are welcome." Kat sighed as Carolyn's hands gripped her shoulder and turned her over.Her expression seemed strange, as if she was pondering about what to say. Kathleen saw it. "You have to behave yourself," Carolyn finally reminded her, and she rolled her eyes, "Oh, stop now! I have already given you my word."Lillian wheeled herself into the room and stated, "You give words and break them." Turning to face her, Kathleen scoffed and said, "Granny, I promise if he behaves well.""What a cute boy he is. Remember who his father is!." Kathleen gave a headshake. "She's told me that multiple times." Muttering un

Kathleen understood very well yesterday that Lucas was telling the truth, even if she was still furious with him. Still, she insisted that he apologize. He made fun of her and said she didn't love her daughter. She would never let go of it. Lucas, though, wanted to apologize to Kathleen and felt sorry. He thought he had gone a bit too far yesterday, but he wasn't sure if he had said those things because Nicole felt like she didn't have a mother or because Kathleen was returning to Seattle and would undoubtedly see him. Lucas knew Kathleen so well, even when she stated she no longer loved him, yet she craved for him all night, which could explain why she refused to let another man in for many years. Lucas adored Kathleen and wished to pursue a deeper relationship with her, but Kathleen considered him as a friend, or more specifically a brother. "Good morning everyone," Kathleen greeted everyone as she entered the dining room and brought Nicole to her seat. Everyone was amazed. Kathl

Kathleen and Nicole sat down in the park. There were children playing in front of them, but Nicole sat with her mother, holding her ice cream. They both had ice cream in their hands. "Nicole, baby." She cooed quietly while looking at her worriedly. The girl smiled as she looked back at her mother. Her smile faded once she saw her mother's eyes. She knew the lady had something to tell her, and it wouldn't be good news. She paused licking her ice cream and gave a nod. "Tell me. You have something to tell me."How can her child be this wise? She could tell something was awry with just a glance. "I'm so sorry." She kept mute. "I will not be gone for a long time."Instead, the girl grinned and said, "I felt something was wrong. When I saw you and Uncle Lucas in the morning, I knew my delight would be cut short. Happiness never lasts, Mom. I was not born to be happy."Kathleen cried, "That is so deep, Nicole. You have the right to be happy.""You are my happiness, Mom. But when you

"Stay away from her and read your books."Nicole turned from the words she was memorizing to her mother."Mom, are you okay?.""I should ask you that. Why did Lilly's mother call me now?. Answer me,"Aiden walks in immediately."What is going on, Honey?." He asked looking from his wife to his daughter."Isn't she too young to fall in love?, love isn't what she should be thinking of right now. And well, that girl's mother is Lily Mila. The one we know of." Kat shouted and walked out of the room.Nicole looked at her dad."Dad, what is going on?. Why's my mom so angry with me?."Aiden replied, "Stay put and I'll talk to your mother."He walks away.Reaching the room, Kat was walking to and fro the room agitatedly. The way Lily talked to her over the phone would make anyone worried.Lily had called her and complained that Nicole made her daughter cry, not only that, that Nicole had taken after her in snatching men.Nicole was too young to be accused of such."Calm down, Kathleen.

Kat listened to Aiden after he told her to smile and act like everything's fine so that this would not make her visitor uncomfortable."So which family did you come from?." Aiden asked."The Miles family sir." The young girl replied.Kat asked, "You said your name's Lilly?. Like Lilly Miles?."The girl nodded and she looked at Aiden.Aiden whispered, "Don't tell me you're thinking of..?."Kat bent down and exclaimed, "Oh my god!."Nicole was just watching her parents reactions. As a smart kid, she already knew that her mom was not happy with her guest, then why?. 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. To ask in front of her friend might make her give in to her. Nicole knew exactly where to get her mother."Fine. But I want you back the next morning. And also stay out of trouble." She ordered.Lilly and

"Nicole.." Lilly screamed, running towards her, she closes her locker and turned around."Xup, Lilly." She grumpily said.Lilly stopped smiling and asked her, "Why do you look sad?.""My mom disagreed, she'd asked me to bring you so she can see you."Lilly's face fell.Too bad."Well, my mom agreed. She'd asked to see the only friend who helped me with my school work." She replied,Lilly repeated classes after she fell numerous times, she was one year older than Nicole and they've become friends after she begged Nicole to help her with school works.Lilly is eleven and Nicole is ten.Nicole was the most popular and brilliant girl in school. 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

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. No one even noticed he was standing at the threshold. Kat could not take her eyes off him, he looked really handsome in a ca

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.

"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.

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. I'm very happy that you could help. I still
