She stood there looking deep into his eyes, wishing he would say the truth. But somehow he looked at her so differently. She could sense a disgust in the way he was staring at her, it made her felt as though he had something against her. She wondered but still she tried to place her head on the fact that he had been sleeping with Lucia.
"How could he" She kept gritting her teeth. She wanted to spat on him but she held the urge.
"Yes, I saw Carlos lying in the garden hurt, but I didn't help him." He said to her. She savaged her lower lip with her teeth. It didn't surprised her, knowing how he killed a man in her house, what more could except from a from.
"At least he told the truth." She sucked in her saliva and wondered if he would answer her genuinely if she asked about Lucia.
"Are you seeing Lucia?" She asked him bluntly, but he kept mute. "Are you seeing Lucia?" She asked again in a low tone but he wanted t
'The guts she has' he thought. She was looking at him like some kind of a monster, when he knew clearly that all she had ever done to him was double crossed him. Even now, he still was wondering where she went to.When she asked him about Carlos, he figured she must have found out, he didn't see the need to lie to her, but he was scared that she might drift away from him like before. Especially now that he had found out that Lucia was the one responsible for rescuing Carlos and not kitty.He told her he left Carlos there for dead, he was a little bit scared to look her in her eyes, but the moment he found the courage to, he noticed she didn't looked surprised. His feet walked two steps forward towards her, but when he heard the question she asked him, he froze."Are you seeing Lucia?" Her question felt like a blade pierced his heart. How the hell did she find out? He thought of how he would ignore answering her que
Kitty tried to shot at Madamme Rosa, but before she could pull the trigger she got shot. She paused for a while, as she felt numbed instantly. Her eyes trailed her body and she saw the blood gushing out of her shoulder. The gun she was holding dropped from her hand and her gaze was fixed at Madamme Rosa. Tears rolled down her eyes as she kept wondering if she was going to survive being shot.Her eyes followed Madamme Rosa as she ran out of the room. Kitty fell on her knees, scared as she kept watching the blood gushed out of her shoulder. She instantly felt weak, and her eyes became blurry. Her upper body fell on the ground and her eyes began to close.Suddenly she heard Carlos scream, and she felt maybe she would be saved. Blood was gushing out of her mouth and her eyes turned red. When she tried to move her hand on the ground, she noticed that she was loosing a lot of blood. Her life flashed in her eyes and she wished to have another
He was shocked the way she suddenly became quiet and her eyes were opened. He held her hands and when she tried to sit up he helped her. Suddenly, he felt her hands pushing his off her body and Jason, knew that she didn't want his hands around her body. He asked her if she was okay but then she looked away and seemed lost in her thoughts. He kept gulping in his saliva, trying to get her attention but to no avail. He still was wondering, what she was thinking bringing a gun to the hospital. He then walked away from her and sat on the couch opposite where.her gaze was fixed at, but it was obvious she was staring into space."She killed him" Kitty muttered and Jason was confused at her words. Who killed who? He kept wondering and then he asked her."Who killed who?" He waited for her response but then she delayed a bit. Just as he was about to ask her again she answered him"Your grandmother, I will kill her." Kitty raised
She told him the doctor's name when he asked. She hoped Jason would tell her he was going to help her, but yet he didn't. It made her angry.'Why did he even asked for his name when he knows he wouldn't do anything for me." She blurted out immediately Jason walked out.She started so bing so loud. She thought that Jason didn't want to help her out cause he didn't loved her anymore. Then she recalled the video she watched from Carlos about Jason and Lucia. She became even more infuriated and thought about giving Jason what he wanted, the divorce.Kitty, picked up her phone from beside her and dialed Mira's number.."Kitty, finally" Mira was happy she called her."I've been trying to reach you all these days, but your number is hardly reachable. Are you still coming back to Cambonian?" Mira asked in excitement."Yes I'm coming." Kitty responded."Great, I'm happy
The look in Matilda's eyes made him felt like Matilda had an ulterior motive coming to the hospital to see Kitty."She have been sent by my grandmother." Jason faked a smile and when his eyes trailed the room he noticed the fruits and food Matilda brought and it made him realized that no doubt his grandmother must have sent Matilda."Mr Dante" Matilda stood on her feet greeting Jason."Hello" Jason responded with a fake smile. He noticed Matilda was shivering and the goosebumps all over her body. He furrowed his brows immediately and wanted to question her bit Matilda excused herself and walked out immediately."That was weird." Kitty said raising her brows at Jason. When Kitty told him that Matilda seemed scared of him it made him wondered if he had ever done any harm to Matilda. But he couldn't think of any, they barely have any conversation, he couldn't recall any. Matilda was more older than him, and had
He walked back to Kitty ICU, and took the basket of fruits and the food."Here" He placed them on Luca's hand and they walked out of the room.As he head out, Jason couldn't stop but wondered how his relationship would have been with his parents if they were alive. He had never kissed them that much until today. He hates to admit it but he felt he needed more live in his life, and even in those times where he felt he was going to hit rock bottom, he wanted to be cuddled and pampered, but such affection was not given to him by his grandma. He always felt like he lacked something, and jealous the memory Kitty had of her mother. Jason walked slowly to the car park, he heard Luca calling his name but he didn't respond as he wanted to be left alone."Capo" Luca called him again."What is it?" Jason asked. He opened the car and collected the keys from Luca. He wanted to drive himself.
After Jason left, she stood on her feet. One if her hand was bandaged and had a supporter. Her other hand, there was a drip connected to it. She dragged the drip as she walked closer to the fruits abd food Matilda had brought for her. She sighed as she looked at it, she recalled that the evening Carlos was stabbed in the house, she saw Madamme Rosa and Matilda in the kitchen and Matilda was whispering in Madamme Rosa ears."What were they talking about? Are they the ones that stabbed. Carlos?" Kitty muttered as she kept staring at the fruits.Her stomach gurgles and she placed a hand on it, she was so hungry but Jason was right, she shouldn't eat the food Matilda brought.Kitty knew that staying in the room would make I want to eat the food even more. She then decided to go meet with Carlos on his ward that way she will pass time till Jason comes.She dragged the drip stand alongside her as she walked to Carlo
Luca drove the car, Jason couldn't stop thinking about the kind of marriage his parents marriage his parents must have had."I thought they were a happy couple." He muttered loud enough for Luca to hear him."You should know better by now, marriages aren't always a bed of roses, it very different from what people see outside from what we all imagine." Luca said to him."Take you and your wife for example, even though you guys love each other a lot, you fight a lot, you guys are about to divorce, and one day when madam gives birth, your kid is going to say, dad, I want to have the same kind of relationship you and mummy have, that's when you'd realized that, yours too, is much better than a lot of other people's marriages."Jason though about what Luca said and it was true, he knew very well he would never divorce Kitty, he didn't even wanted to think about it anymore.Suddenly his phone ra

"Kitty said you surprised her with Mira's arrival, so she wanted to do the same to you, " Aunt Silvia said to Jason. "Well, it is indeed a wonderful surprise and fit for the occasion." Jason smiled. "What occasion?" Kitty asked wondering what Jason meant. Her gaze drifted from Jason to Mira thinking that they were up to mischief, but to her surprise, Mira had no idea of what Jason was talking about. "Why don't we have dinner together, as a family, I will get grandma." Jason walked out straight to Madamme Rosa's room. When he got there he meant the caregiver combing her hair, Jason sent Charity away and took the comb from her. "I know a lot has happened, and it's too bad we got here. I hope you will find it in your heart to forgive me, I'm finding it hard to forgive you, every day I pray, hoping that one day I will awake and hold no grudge against you, but those prayers haven't been answered."
It's been a month since Lucia's death. Jason buried her right next to his parents. Every day he would visit and place a flower on her grave and that of her parents as well. Most times Kitty followed him, but sometimes he felt like going alone and never pestered her. He was bemoaning, he never left the house except to the grave. He would lock himself up in his study every night and inundate himself in bottles of whiskey, in the morning he always had a hangover but lied to Kitty that he was sick. Luca kept on rescheduling his meeting with the board members at the Alfredo's but Jason missed every one of them.He was shattered, yet he pretended to be okay. ... The night wind was extremely cold that evening, Jason had just finished having dinner with his family. Like his normal routine for a month now, he went from the dining and locked himself up in his study. He opened the fridge in his study and found only one bottle of whiskey le
From the look in his eyes, she realized that he must be dying of regret. She couldn't stop him from leaving. She waited for him to come back but he was taking forever.She was pacing around in the living room anxiously, she prayed for Lucia to be unharmed. When it was late, she tried to call him. But then Luca answered his phone.Kitty asked him about Jason and he told her what had happened. Words left her lips, she didn't know what else to say. She knew that he definitely would not easily recover from such loss. After the call, she waited around in the living room, waiting for him to come.It was already past 9 pm and yet he was still out. She was dizzy but yet couldn't sleep. Her heart was unsettled.She thought to check on Mira to make sure she was alright. As soon as she walked inside Mira's room she switched on the lights."Kitty is that you?" Mira sat on her bed."Hey, don't do that laydown." Kitty rushed to the
Jason walked out of the room down to his study. He emptied a bottle of whiskey. Then it crossed his mind that his grandmother was still locked up. He rushed to his room to get the keys from the pants he wore earlier.When he entered the room, it was stuffy. He found his grandmother all dressed up with makeup on. He wondered why she had worn makeup. Jason scoffed as he walked closer to her."Why would an old wan wear makeup?" He mocked her.Madamme Rosa ignored him as though he wanted there. She was placing her earrings on her ears, when she was done she looked at Jason who was standing by her mirror."How do I look?" She asked Jason."Ugly." He scoffed at her. "No makeup will be good enough to cover your wicked heart. Kitty an unborn baby, and your son, and you think that by wearing makeup you would be able to hide that darkness inside of you?" Jason walked closer to her."Maybe not. If I were as wicked as you say, why didn't I
Jason couldn't believe what was happening, he kept screaming and wanted to go into the fire. But he was held back by the police there. He fell to his knees wailing bitterly. All that was in his head was Lucia's voice promising him that she was going to be at the mansion that morning. He wished he had realized she wouldn't be coming, he wished he didn't allow her to leave him at the hotel.Regrets were all that engulfed him. He wanted to turn back the hands of time, for one last chance to treat her better. But it was impossible, and that made him even more depressed. He kept beating his chest severally. On his knees, he remained there, with his head bent on the ground.The police were shocked at the sight, even the bodyguards that escaped the fire as well as the employees, no one knew that Jason was Lucia's brother.With the hope to figure out why he was affected, one of the police officers decided to approach Jason. But Jason pushed him to the
"You still have the guts to tell at me, better start respecting yourself or your favorite daughter will go boom" Lucia pressed on the lighter to lite and placed it close to Camilla's hair."Now behave, you have to be a good boy Daddy." Lucia laughed.I Alfredo was glaring at her, wishing he could just slap her and kill her himself."After everything I did for you, you have the guts to pour gasoline on my daughter. You are an animal." He yelled at her."After everything you've done for me?" Lucia raised her brows in shock, and paddled slowly towards him "What exactly did you do for me, Alfredo?" She yelled at him."Was it the constant hitting? or being yelled at? What exactly have you done for me? Because I remember nothing, absolutely nothing, that's how horrific my childhood was because of you." She slapped Mr. Alfredo."What did you expect from me, a fatherly love, when you were a child I never fathered, and from a monster of a family, you don
BEFORE THE FIRE AT THE ALFREDO'S MANSION 16 HOURS AGO Lucia wasn't certain how she would escape, but all she wanted was for Kitty and Jason to be able to leave the hotel without any harm. After finding out Jason was indeed her brother, she was frustrated but then, she felt somewhat lucky. Since staying at the hotel, Lucia was busy going through every photo she has of Jason, she found it interesting that he was indeed her brother. She wished she knew earlier, and despite the feud between their families, she and Jason never really had any personal fights until Kitty came along. ... At the hotel, after Kitty killed Carlos, Lucia took it upon herself to distract her father's men so Kitty and Jason could flee. When she got to the lobby, she was surrounded by fifty of her father's men. She surrendered and so did Philip. They apprehended her and handcuffed her in one of the vans they came with, both her and Philip. "Take her to th
When he walked inside the ICU, he saw that Mira was already awake. It had been such a long day. He had dark circles around his eyes. "You are awake." Jason walked up to Mira. "Yes, I am. Kitty is so worried, why did you leave her here alone?" Mira questioned Jason. "I went out for work. I couldn't delay it." He sat close to Kitty and whispered in her ears"Why make her worried about you?" "Shut up," Kitty whispered back. They joked and laughed. Jason ordered breakfast as it was already past 6 am. After eating, Kitty told Jason that it will be best they take Mira home and a doctor to tend to her. Jason understood pretty well, that Kitty still felt threatened by Alfredo and didn't know when they see will attack. Jason hired a doctor from the same hospital Mira was receiving treatment from. They discharge Mira and they all went back home. She was laid on the bed and the equipment needed for her treatment like the oxygen just in c
