HUDSON’S POV

“Daddy look!

“I got one, I got one!” My boy squealed; his excitement palpable as he relentlessly pulled at his fishing rod that was currently halfway into the water. My lips spread to an even brighter smile as I rushed to him, cupping his small hands as we wheeled the fishing reel attached to the rod until finally! A medium sized fish popped out from the lake!

“Yay!” We screamed loudly, high fiving ourselves as the others raced to us. And when I say the others, I meant; Mason, Miley and Aby! Yes, Aby.

My little girl had been the most excited so far ever since we started hopping around different sections of Grandpa’s ranch. Shocking I know, I mean I almost couldn’t believe it as well but she totally had no problems when I told her about the possibility of her having siblings.

The thought that she wouldn’t be able to take it truly was terrifying but I was glad I mentioned it. Otherwise, what would I have done today? How would I have explained things?

“Wow, its huge Miles! I

Hudson who understands how self centered he was for thinking only about Aby, that’s great for a start.

showed his bias which I guess should be understandable since he was was with Aby since her birth unlike with his 3 kids. But it was his fault and undoing that caused the separation.. so all the more he should make it up to them

    HUDSON' POV“Sweetie, I’m sorry but we can’t take it home”“Why?! But I want to, mommy! We can’t leave him here, he needs me!” Miley argued, her voice breaking as she pleaded earnestly with Val.“But if we take him home, he will die! He needs his mommy too” Val retorted, trying to make our princess see reason with her, like she had been doing all this while. They have actually been a it for 20 minutes straight now and yet, no improvement.“He won’t…” My princess whispered, a little sob escaping her lips at the thought of it alone and soon her tears began to flow.“Ugh goodness! Miley… sweetheart, why are you crying?” Val groaned, bending to her level to calm her down. “We cannot take your pony home, where we will keep it? It’s not a dog, it can’t sleep with you on your bed! You can’t help it shower and-“But I want to take care of him! He will be all alone here, he will be scared without me, mommy!” Miley still argued while sobbing seriously now to prove the conversation was not headi

    CHARLOTTE’S POV“Let’s breakup!” he pronounced with every bit of finality that it had my entire body coming to a halt right in the living room. What? Breakup? How?Or did I hear wrong? I must’ve heard wrong right? I mean, he couldn’t be serious!Choked with disbelief, I turned to face him. My movements slow as though scared that any sudden movements would make the words true. But just as I faced him, he repeated it. Those very words that just seemed to knock the breath out of me, “I’m done, Charlotte. Let’s breakup!”I took a sharp inhale, barely making a sound as I struggled to process what was happening at the moment. Everything seemed to slow down, seconds turning into minutes as I stood there, blinking repeatedly, trying to catch my breath. But eventually, I found my voice. “Wah…what?” I said breathlessly, “What are you saying Hudson?”My legs moved on its own bringing me closer to him as gradually, my brain registered the situation. This was real. This was actually happening

    VALERIE’S POV“Watch out for his neck, Papa!” I cautioned; my tone soft as I slowly relaxed back on my seat after he properly angled Mason’s neck on his seat. “They are all so tired! Must have had too much fun running around all day” Papa complained with a light chuckle, making me smile as well.“They did. Too much actually…I’m thankful for that.” I responded, cuddling a sleeping Miley more to my chest. “I was worried things wouldn’t go well, but thankfully, it did.”I felt Papa heaved a breath next to me after those words, “Pumpkin,” he started, his voice calm and I knew what this was about already. “Why did you…what were you doing with that girl? That little girl”A sigh left my lips as the scene was referred to came to mind. I had just reached the front of the mansion while cooing a crying Aby to stop when Papa drove into the estate. Just in time to see me, Aby and Miley. The expression on his face wasn’t great, that much I can tell you.“That little girl, isn’t she his child? She

    HUDSON’S POV “Daddy look! Is this, okay?” Mason called out, pointing to the assessment booklet he had been working on. I quickly leaned closer to check and amazingly, his calculations were just excellent! “Vey good, Mas!” I complimented loudly, my heart swelling with pride as I high fived him. “Very good! You calculated this nicely! Smart boy!” He smiled bashfully at my praise, the boyish features lighting up splendidly. “Aww, Masse is blushing!” Miley cooed from her spot not too far from us, her voice taunting. “No, I’m not!” Mason insisted hotly, cupping his cheeks with both hands. “Yes, you are! Look! His ears are turning pink!” Miley continued, making everyone look at Mason’s ears in that moment. And truthfully, they were indeed pink! His blue eyes turned to me in alarm, silently begging me to come to his rescue and I did just that. But after joining in on the giggles from the others for a bit, “Okay, okay that’s enough! Let’s not tease our smarty pants anymore” I voiced out,

    ROB’S POV“You?”“What are you doing here? How did you find here?” He asked, his surprise mirroring mine as we faced each other right in front of the gates. With him standing inside, blocking the entrance and I, outside like a mail man.To say I was surprised would be an understatement at this point but still, I composed myself, acting as comfortable as possible. “Mr. Rodriguez, pleasant surprise!” I commented, stretching my hand for a handshake. It took a moment, but he eventually took my hand before ushering me inside.Once inside, I noticed just how different everywhere looked.Everywhere was all lit up and felt used. Like someone actually lived in the building unlike how it was before. Only after I heard the kids’ running upstairs that I fully understood what was going on. “I didn’t expect to see you here, Mr. Rodriguiez” I started, getting comfortable on the living room couch.“Neither did I!” he retorted, his face blank and yet his tone gave off hostility.

    THIRD PERSON POV“Mommy loves you,”“Daddy too.”“We love you, forever…” Valerie sang softly; her voice melodious as she cooed the kids to sleep. Smiling warmly, as she watched them drift off one after the other with no worries at all, causing a sudden calmness to wash over her in that moment. All three of her kids; Miley Miles and Mason alongside Aby were currently laying on the soft sheets of the king-sized bed in one of the guest rooms in the house outside the city.A guest room that had now been regarded as the children’s room ever since they moved in. It’s been almost two weeks now and so far, it was safe to say that they were pretty much a happy family at this point. The ideal family that Hudson, the kid’s father and Valerie’s lover has been dreaming about for a while now. On one hand, he was busy loving the arrangements, making plans for the next activity they could all do as a family, to bond more. And on the other hand, his dearest-Valerie was busy arranging moves that were

    THIRD PERSON POV“Wah…what are you saying, miss Hernandez?” Mrs. Thompson asked carefully, making sure she didn’t hear wrong the first time. But Valerie only chuckled in response, “They live with me now, Mrs. Thompson.” She confirmed, “Didn’t Charlotte tell you? I thought you guys were close seeing as you got invited to her shopping mall party”Mrs. Thompson’s lips parted open in surprise, her eyes widening as she slowly pieced everything together. “Oh my God…” she whispered to herself, smiling with glee at the new found piece of information she had just gotten. An exciting piece of information, that was what this is!And just then a car horn sounded loudly from behind, signaling the line had began moving and Mrs. Thompson was in the way of others behind. With a gasp she faced a still smiling Valerie, “Errm, sorry Miss Hernedez! I have to go now, but it was so nice seeing you again!” she said, smiling from ear to ear like she just won a medal and Valerie simply nodded in response befo

    HUDSON’S POV“Ma’am Valerie has already left the building, Sir!” the receptionist said, her features serious. Meaning she wasn’t trying to tell me off.But how could Val have left already, when we talked on phone just a few minutes ago? “Are you sure about this? She really left?” I pressed, urging the young lady for any information I could get out of her.But I guess it was futile cause she simply nodded her head as a positive to respond to me. “She came in earlier today, with a few cute kids and after a while, she left! I saw her myself, Mr. Rodriguiez. But I can schedule you a meeting though, you just have to-“No, no. No worries, I will just…contact her on phone” I said, waving off her polite gesture before turning away and out of the building. My legs, taking me to the parking lot. And as I did, the more worried I became. Continuously dialing her contact without getting a response. “Where are you, Valerie?” I grumbled, allowing the robotic voice fill the air again.But just as I r

    VALERIE’S POV“Pa!”“Pa!” Babara’s loud voice echoed in the air even before we saw her face. The urgency in her voice clear, and it only seemed to get worse as the clicking sounds of her heels drew closer to Papa’s hospital door.My eyes flickered to Papa’s for a moment, just making sure I didn’t need to stop her before she got to him right. Cause I was ready to! I won’t let her rashness take away the only family member I had left. I wouldn’t let him encounter another panic attack, not on my watch!I think he kind of sensed my uneasiness, and gently placed his hands on mine. Wanting to assure me he was alright, and as much as that calmed me, I still wasn’t putting down my guard. Not while the enemy was so close by.And as if hearing my thoughts, the door slammed open!“Papa!” and in came Babara herself. Rushing in with all her might, desperation and anxiety coating her every move. “Papa, I have looked everywhere for you! Everywhere… hospitals after hospitals, ward after ward, just… ev

    HUDSON’S POV“Do you understand now?”“First, the man you wanted left you, Amelia left you, Ethan also did, and now… your own father has abandoned you.” her voice sounded softly, almost considerate but the underlying cruelty was hard to miss. A total contrast to the nonchalant expression on her face, like even speaking to the woman on phone was not worth wasting her energy.It was enchanting, to say the very least.“No one wants you; no one wants to be with you.” She whispered slowly, “You will die alone, Charlotte. A long, lonely death. Remember that,”And just like that, the call ended. The phone sliding from her ears, every movement smooth like she had finished the deal right then and there, which she had though. The bait had been set.The bait we both agreed upon after Ethan showed up at our doorstep, with information about Charlotte. A very daring attitude from a person with his record of betrayal. Ever since he attempted to kidnap Valerie back then, he had gone off record. Which

    CHARLOTTE'S POV“Oh yeah?” she sneered, sounding totally unbothered as I continued to brew with anger. “What will you do to Drake then? You see he made a deal with me; to hand over all his dealings with my family, testify against you in court, revealing all the many corpses that was buried underneath the garden in his house for you.”What?“What are you talking about you bitch, I killed no one!” I responded, my breathing shaky as memories of how so many dead bodies were used as fertilizer for the rose garden back home. Dead bodies that were as a result of several tortures and beatings given to men doing business with the heartless man that was my father!It was all him!How come this bitch was saying something else here? How did she even know about the bodies?!“Those corpses are as a result of the many murders that you have done over the years, Charlotte!”“That’s not true!” I argued angrily, losing my cool.“But Drake said it is, and he is testifying against you in court!” she insis

    CHARLOTTE’S POV“What the hell are they doing?”“Why are they even together at the hospital? Just what the fuck is this?!” my voice resounded everywhere, bouncing off the walls in the apartment I currently occupied with Raymond.But could you blame me? I was pissed off!Pissed off by the stupid ass video that was been displayed on the tv screen! A video of what supposedly had happened between my man and that bitch Valerie today! Or was this some sort of trick? That bitch Valerie was pulling a stunt again?But even if she did, how did Hudson come onboard with this?! To do this with her! Act like they were all perfect and okay, when I knew they were not! They most definitely were not! They shouldn’t even be!Valerie’s schemes have been exposed! Hudson knows all about this now, I was sure of it! I watched him drive off angrily that night, away from their new place. He didn’t go home that day I sent those cameras, they had a fight. I was sure of it!So why instead of packing his things an

    HUDSON’S POVSilence settled between Val and I as we walked all the way to the ward. Our fingers still interlocked, until finally we reached the very door that held Miley’s excited laughs behind it. And then I stopped, facing Valerie right then.“What money?” I asked, but she simply blinked. Probably not expecting my question, but I heard the conversations between her and her aunties anyways. Or at least part of it, since they were already speaking before I arrived there. So…“The money your aunt was referring to” I explained, my voice calm as I waited. “She said something about a stolen money that was in Mason’s name, and you were going to be arrested for it if they called the cops. What was that all about?”“Oh,” was all she said, a deep sigh following right after. “It’s… it’s a bit personal,”Huh?“Personal?” I repeated, not believing she was about to do what I thought she would do. “How personal is this that I can’t even know about it? Mason is involved here, that’s my son, Valeri

    HUDSON’S POVComing back home was nothing short of what I had expected. My kids gathered were together, happily playing games, absolutely oblivious of the current happenings surrounding me and their mom. As far as they were concerned; daddy had to take a little trip to check out a building site.A strategy Nanny Beth took to save them from the hassle of wondering why I wasn’t home for 2 days. But aside my kids, everything else seemed fine. The maids, Nanny (Whether or not she knew, she didn’t behave like it at all. But assuming she didn’t know anything will be highly stupid on my part cause Valerie tells her almost everything despite their huge age difference!) but above all, there was no Valerie.I wouldn’t lie to you, a part of me immediately thought of going back to the house outside the city, to check if she had still gone back there. But I just held back. Forcing myself to focus on taking a nice shower, eat a really satisfying meal and then catch up with my kids.The last time I

    VALERIE’S POV“I-I’m truly sorry,”“I am- am so sorry for lying about that day,” I apologized, my voice breaking as I tried to keep my tears at bay. “I shouldn’t have lied! I should’ve… I didn’t know you and the kids were at the office, I didn’t know you guys wanted to surprise me so we could have lunch together. It’s all my fault! I’m sorry…”“Of course you are. You are sorry now, Valerie.” His voice sounded in the air, bitter but yet so calm. Unlike his explosive self that I had seen that day in the secret room. “But you weren’t sorry when you just lied to both me and the kids that day, running off to go clear evidences of your actions for fear that someone would get to it first before you do. Maybe someone already got to them-Charlotte had! She did send a few cameras after all; I’m guessing that is what got you agitated and also what had been bothering you days before the kids and I even went to your office!”“No! That’s not it at all,” I rushed to explain, “I wasn’t bothered about

    CHARLOTTE’S POV“What? What did you say?”“They are still under the same roof? My Huddie is still living in that house? With her? with bitch Valerie?!"He simply nodded in confirmation, amplifying the horror I just heard. “How?!” I blasted, loosing my shit right then and there. “How is any of that even possible?! He should’ve left her by now! They should be fighting and him not forgiving what she has done! How can they still be together? That’s impossible!”“It is possible!” Raymond insisted, his tone similar to mine. “I saw him myself! I saw Hudson drive into that mini city of his- the Sky Walls! I saw him, and even waited for over an hour to see if he would come back out, but he didn’t! The man simply went home to his woman and kids, get over him kiddo. We need to leave the country before things get out of hand!”“No,” I responded, not wanting to believe a word he said.“Kiddo, You-“No! I said no!” I boomed, smashing the glass of water I was supposed to take my meds with. “I’m not

    VALERIE’S POV“He just suffered from a mini panic attack, ma’am”“Given his age, attacks like this could often lead to stroke, full blown heart attacks, or even death on the spot!” The doctors voice resounded in my ears, sending yet another terrible ache throughout my temples. It has been this way since we took Papa to the hospital. And by we, I meant myself and Babara.Patricia came along too but quickly left after hearing he was still breathing and alive. Davis didn’t even come at all. Displaying their exact feelings towards their own father. Making me wonder even more that; what would have happened if I had already driven out of the estate before he collapsed today? What would have become of my Papa? Would he have- would he have really died? Just like that? Because his own children were too busy fussing over him instead of hurrying to get him to the hospital immediately?!“We have managed to stabilize his blood pressure for a bit, but I would advise no more shocking news to be brou
