Right at this moment he thinks of Ella, the girl is somewhat a puzzel to him. Behind her spunkiness, fierceness and tenacity lies an innocent and fragile personality with so much bottled-up emotions ready to explode anytime which makes her attract this attention and gives him the feeling that he wants to protect her just like what her brother does.he started to ply his guitar after setlling on the bench outside the hut that was use to be a stop over place. His playing with the string produce a song with the lyrics that makes him desccribe Ella.

When the water level of the river goes down and the bridge was passable he called for a rescue to carry Ella comfortably back to the house. When they reach home he immediatelly call Gab to let him know of what is happening in the resort and then he and her workers goes around to assess the damage that the storm brought. Ella on the other hand was attended by their house keeper as she knows what to do and how to attend to her condition, it seems she had forgotten again her medication and somehow developed an infection as she was expose longer in the cold and rain. "How are you feeling Ella?" He asked her when he visited her in her room to give an update in the situation on the resort.

"What is the meaning of this Ella? You and Dane stayed overnight only the two of you in that place, are you thinking of your reputation Ella? You are giving the workers something to talk about." she obviosly fake her reaction, actually she knowingly told the driver not to fetch them so as for them to have no choice but to stay the two of them together and hoping that something may come out of it. After a few days when Dane and Ella got stuck in the storm, Sophie deliberately manipulated the situation this time for her husband to witness."Aunt Sophie if the driver had return earlier we will be able to return not having to spend the night out in the cold. We didn't do anything wrong if that's what you are implying."

She insisted to make
When Gab arrived the following day what he expected to be a happy reunion with his sister became a disaster. Nana Gloria told him how Sophie and her daughter connive to break the bond that the father and daughter start to build. Furiuosly he confronted his father." For goodness sake Dad why do you allow your wife to meddle with the running of this place, didn't we agreed that we will leave Ella to have free acces on the management of the resort and I can tell that she is doing a great job. we cannot control the forces of nature to act on its own. Why do you have to criticize the close ness of Ella and Dane? She is my sister and he is my bestfriend if there is someone knows them it should be me . I trust Dane and Ella needs a friend to get over her sickness. Someone to talk to things that she cannot tell us . Do you know that Dane make it a point to check on her medication and keep a record on it to show it to her doctor? This comes to show that he cared for her for
After three days Ella woke up from her induced sleep conducted by her doctor to rest and regain her body stamina and give her peace of mind. She looked for Dane who already left going back to his family. Gab was able to control the situation by sending his faher and his family back to the city, banning his step-mother and step-sister to step in the resort with out his permission to avoid a clash with Ella while she is recuperating, his father didn't contest to this, to the disgust of Sophie thinking that her husband is powerless against his children and realizing that her plan of taking over the management of the resort has failed. But it didn't stop her from concocting another plan to realized her dream. Julia on the other hand grieves silently that her hope of being with Dane had come to an end.
