The Revengeful Heirs Chapter 29
FRANK’S number keeps on ringing but there was no answer and eventually the call was dropped. Samantha decided to go directly to Frank’s apartment. She needed an explanation very badly. What is the relationship of Frank and her mother? She wanted the truth.She picked up Baby Divine and headed for the door. Frank’s apartment was on the upper level of the building. She rode the elevator. As the elevator climbed at a steady pace, her heart was racing faster. Her mind has so many questions. But one question has been answered by that picture.Now it is clear to her why Frank was helping her because of her mother. She was her mother’s look alike in the picture. The picture was very intimate. Samantha guessed that the two had an intimate relationship. They were lover’s no doubt about it.Are they lover’s before Arnald Lopez, her father? Maybe Frank was helping her to continue the affair thru her. Maybe Frank was planning to continue their postponed love story thru her. AS she taught about it

SAMANTHA could not sleep the whole night. She tried to call her mother and Frank many times but both could not be reached. She was annoyed. Her head began to ache. There must be an answer behind the picture. Who is Frank to her mother?She tried to remember the time when she met Frank. It was very casual. A simple HI and HELLO when they crossed each other and met at the elevator almost every day. They were from the same country and living at the same building. Casual greetings turned to short conversations. Followed by coffee invitation at the coffee shops just a few blocks from the apartment building. Small talks. Nothing unusual. She was alone and lonely and pregnant. She needed someone to talk to, somehow. Until she needed Frank for some errand during her pregnancy until her hospital delivery.They were acquainted and eventually became friends. Never crossed her mind that the man had treasured old photographs with her mother. If it was not an accident, it must be fate. She has to k

ANGELO Lopez was dumbfounded for a while. He was not sure now if he was hearing Marisa Madrid’s word correctly. The breakfast was good. The hotel’s service is excellent but he could not appreciate everything. He would like to regret that he said yes to Marisa last night when the later gave her ultimatum asking him for marriage. He said yes just to end the conversation and hoping that Marisa will not pressed the issue any longer. That a promise is like any other promises he made to other women and soon it will just fade away. But it seems it was his biggest mistakes.Marisa Madrid was serious and it seems that everything was already plannedahead.“I will call my friend. He is a priest and he can officiate our marriage right here at the hotel.” Marisa beamed in excitement. “After that we can fly to Rome for our honeymoon. I will call our home office in New York. I will ask for an indefinite leave of absence. I wanted to have a baby, Honey and we will work that out immediately.”Angelo

MARRYING for love is another but shotgun marriage is something else. While Marisa was busy on the phone, Angelo’s mind was racing fast. He is thinking of a way to unhook himself to this awkward situation. He was used to playing games with women but now it seems that he finally found his match. His plans are not working well and he has no plan to marry yet.She looked at Marisa sitting on the hotel room’s dressing table talking and barking instructions to her subordinates overseas. The woman was stunning alright. A beauty that every man cannot resist but the character struck Angelo. A woman on top of everything is dangerous.Domineering. Controlling. It seems that the woman is imploring devious tactics to achieve her goal and get what she wanted even in a relationship.In his younger years, he dreamt of marrying a woman like her mother. Simple yet caring. Marisa Madrid was the opposite. They are only the same by the first name as if fate played with them. Angelo was taken aback remembe

SAMANTHA tried to relax her breathing. Her face was very sweaty. Her shirt was soaked and wet. She was doing the routine for almost two hours now in the gym. Her conversation with her mother over the phone does not offer any satisfactory explanation.She remembered their conversation and the last word Divina had said is she could not remember the name. She never knew a man named Franco Sevilla. That she had a lot of male friends during her youth. Maybe the picture was taken as a souvenir by one among her admirer that she could not recall the name now.What Divina had said doesn’t have sense at all. Samantha had a feeling that her mother was lying. First the photograph was very intimate. Second, she also had some friends before and until now and she could still recall their names. Third, Divina was avoiding the topic and tried to divert their conversation and no matter how she asked about Franco Sevilla, Divina swayed away the conversation until she hang the phone.That mystery keeps n

JERSEY smiled as he left Samantha’s office and headed to Norberto’s office. His plan is working. The Far East cosmetics withdrawal was actually his fault. An accidental fault that became intentional. While it was true that the new boss of the Far East had already signed BA Modelling Agency, it actually happened because of him. He failed to get the specific model that Far East is looking for. Samantha trusted him for recruiting new girls but he got personal problems that he had neglected his work lately.His boyfriend left him for another. The reason was that he could not afford the car asked by his boyfriend that is why decided to look for someone who can afford all his whim. Jersey was working very hard for his lover but his salary was not enough to support every caprice that Bobby asked. Doing good in bed is sometimes not enough for this kind of relationship. He can perform great blow job but his boyfriend was asking for more. He has no other source to augment his income until he th

AFTER Jersey had delivered his scripts he smiled to himself. That was perfect. Now he had tarnished Samantha’s reputation. Every business man like Norberto always opted for the good of the company. And he believed that the decision will be on his favor.“Are you sure about this Jersey?” Norberto asked seriously.“Of course boss. I tried to call the Fareast Cosmetics to arrange for meeting but they denied us. They are into management revamp and our old contacts were replaced. The new in charge was not very cooperative.”Another intentional lie. He called alright but it was already too late. Because when Fareast Cosmetics was calling him, he is nowhere to find drinking and agonizing about his lover’s betrayal.“So replacing Samantha will be you alternative?”“I think that was for the best, boss.” Jersey confirmed and hesitate for a while as if trying to contemplate if he will add more.Jersey paused for a while before saying. ” One more thing boss.”Norberto wait for Jersey to speak out

SAMANTHA was in a foul mood that she decided to talk to Norberto for a day’s off. Her head was aching so she decided to go home early. On her way to Norberto’s office she met Jersey and Beverly on the hallway who was happily chatting. She was taken aback for a few moments. She had decided to evade Beverly as much as possible. She has a feeling that the woman doesn’t like her and the feeling was mutual. But for the sake of Norberto she will avoid any conflict with the woman in the future.“Hello Samantha.” Jersey greet her with a smile.Beverly was on a poker face. The eyebrow arched as she stared at Samantha.“Hello.” Samantha replied with a timid smile ignoring Beverly. “Is Norberto in his office?” “Yes.” Jersey said confidently. He is almost sure that Norberto had called Samantha to fire her. Tomorrow will be his lucky day. As new head of the modelling agency. Jersey hadfantasized again about all the opportunities that awaits him and Bobby, his lover. He was almost sure about it. H

WITH so many things occupying her mind, Samantha was surprised to see Angelo Lopez in her office accompanied by her secretary Becky Sanchez.“He insisted Boss.” Becky reasoned.“That is okay, Becky. You can leave us now.”“You are very hard to find, Boss.” Angelo said mockingly. “Cannot reach your phone and the apartment was empty and no neighbor can tell where you transfer.”Samantha understood Angelo’s resentment. Because of the fast turned of events in her life, she actually forgotten about the man. Due to Franks advice she terminated her subscription with her old cell phone, instead she used burner phone. An inexpensive phone designed for temporary call. According to Frank it will be safer so that no one can track her. She forgot to inform Angelo about it.Also due to Frank’s insistence they already move to the mansion. Her mother resisted it at first but when she realized the gravity of danger to Samantha being Frank’s daughter she eventually obliged. She already realized by now t

MARISA was overwhelmed, elated and more than happy seeing her new face. She was even more beautiful now. The doctor had really done a miracle on restoring her damaged face. She cried and hugged Angelo with too much happiness.“I think this needs for a celebration.” Angelo suggested silently feeling overwhelmed too. The burden that was lurking inside him and the fear that Marisa could not make it suddenly disappear.“Ohh… honey. I am so thankful.” Marisa said with misty eyes and then turned around. “Thank you Doctor.”“Thanks the Lord ma’am. I am just his instruments.” The doctor humbly answered. “The miracle was from him.”Marisa nodded in silence. She believed the doctor. In her past reading of the holy bible she contemplated much about her past and she realizes how lucky she was. A blessing that she should share to less fortunate. She was so touched and now she had promised herself that she will do good deeds in the future.They dined happily that evening as a celebration. She now r

The Boss lead Samantha to a sitting room after they eat. It was a huge room with no windows but well lighted. There was a steel framed working table and a sofa. Aside from collection of antiques, the room was almost bare. No pictures or paintings hanged. Only a brown painted wall with high ceiling.The Boss took a bottle of wine and pour it into two wine glass and handed Samantha the other one which she eagerly took. She badly needed a drink after the incident of gun fire and surprises that had happened. Her adrenaline was still up and she wanted to eased a bit.“I know you are surprised seeing me here.” The Boss said after he emptied his glass. “I think we have to be introduced properly. I am Franco Ortega. But to you and your mother I am Frank Sevilla. I am sorry that I did not introduce you myself earlier.

The wound was not fatal because it exited the soft skin of the jaw but the doctor said that it will need longer therapy to restore both the skin and the broken jaw.Marisa also suffered fractured bones and limbs. Other than that she was already out of danger and the good thing is that the baby was not affected. Angelo got a mixed emotion about what happened.

It seems that something had turned out within the woman that made her a killer.Marisa moved and open her eyes.

Divina was silent during breakfast and Samantha decided to respect that silence too. She was light headed that morning because of lack of sleep. As she watched her mother silently, Samantha was almost tempted to ask her who was her real father again but she had a second thought because Divina had answered that already and firmed in her conviction that Arnald was her father. Samantha had a second thought about it and she knew that asking will bring her nowhere. Now she realized how distant was Arnald to her and her mother in her growing days. She never remembered that the man had spent longer hour for her even during special occasions like Christmas and birthdays. She outgrown the thought that maybe Arnald was just a busy man.After high school she was sent to America to study college. It was Arnald’s idea and her mother could not say no but cry.Well maybe her mother was still expecting a second chance between them and Arnald like she was silently hoping for the second chance between
