VALERIE’S POV

“I did it all for you, Huddie!”

“It was all for you. Because I loved you and still do!” Charlotte cried out, her voice raw with emotion like she wasn’t the one spewing shit just a moment ago. Gosh! This woman… I would never understand her, never!

“I love you, Huddie. Let’s start all over, please” She pleaded, sniffling back her tears as she moved to his direction. But instead, all she got was cold shoulder from Hudson as he walked right past her, like she was nothing in his eyes. “The only person I need to start all with is my woman who I abandoned because of how foolish I was. Next to her, you’re simply insignificant and that’s all you will ever be!”

Woah

‘Look at that nonchalance people! That man is so done with her ass!’

And he doesn’t know the full story yet! Hahaha!

“Amelia?”

“Amelia! Sweetheart please, let’s talk. I can totally explain! I can-

“GET. YOUR. HANDS. OFF ME!” Amelia declared; her eyes murderous as they spat fire at Gregory. He refused at first but after

Please, whatever it is, don't separate Val and Hudson. Instead, make Val for Hudson again for them to bond more. Also punish Charlotte and her father, Drake

    THIRD PERSON POVIt’s been less than 24 hours since the Rodriguiez mansion received the rude awakening that they had yet another family member and ever since, peace has seized to exist in the family mansion!Angry yellings and explanations bounced off their walls, multiple times at night and even continuing the next morning. And even until this moment!“Throw it out!” Amelia yelled at a confused maid.“Keep it down! I said keep it down!” Gregory instructed, countering Amelia’s order. Leaving the maid even more confused and slightly worried for her own safety as she looked between the couple.Or should I say, ex-couple.“Amelia, please. Let’s talk like grown adults! We don’t need to be like this, please” Gregory pleaded, repeating the words he had been saying since yesterday. But those very words seemed to drive Amelia even more mad with anger! So much that she charged at the maid, grabbing the set of clothes in her hands and threw them downstairs by herself.“I said, GET HIS FUCKING BA

    CHAPTER 247“Drake,” Hudson repeated, his deep voice vibrating in the air as he spoke for the very first time. “How do you know, Drake?”Gregory’s eyes widened in surprise at that question. Realizing what was supposed to be his quiet thought had been voiced out instead, even reaching the others of the others in the living room!Everyone’s eyes were on him. Zooming in on him and filling him with dread as he swallowed, hard. “You just mentioned Drake,” Hudson repeated, this time his voice even more firm. “How do you know him? Why did you mention him and what does he have to do with this recording?”“I- err-I-” Gregory stammered,“Answer me!” Hudson blasted. His sudden anger startling everyone, but it was to be expected. He hadn’t confronted Gregory ever since everything that happened at the hospital. His anger was justified. But even at that, Amelia couldn’t help but cut in.“But who is this, Drake?” She questioned with confusion, seemingly feeling whoever that was could not possibly be

    “But it was what pushed me.” Gregory insisted. “That was the genesis of all my wrong decisions! I took your heritage, gambled and lost it! I tried to get them back and got into more debt! Tried some more and got into more and more debts! Which was why when Drake approached me, I took his bait! Without even thinking! Why?! Because I didn’t want to ruin things between us, Amelia. I didn’t want to totally lose relevance in my father’s eyes and most definitely not in my son’s eyes! Hudson was all I had left. I couldn’t bear to become a disappointment to him, so I did it!”“I settled all my debts and everything but what I didn’t realize was that Drake wouldn’t take back money as payment. Instead, he wanted me to marry his daughter-Charlotte. That was where I met her. I couldn’t of course, I had a wife and a son almost Charlotte’s age, how could I do such a thing?!”“Good heavens!” Grandpa exclaimed, banging the arm of his chair as he stood up abruptly. Fury burning within him as he paced a

I am so sorry for everything!”“I feel ashamed, disgusted with myself and completely embarrassed that I did all these things as your father. It wasn’t right, it was wrong on so many levels and I should have put a stop to it before it got to this extent. I shouldn’t have given in and let them use me, let them play you like this…it is all my fault. All my fault! My selfishness and desire to keep a clean slate without letting everyone know what I had gotten into pushed me even more to do this despicable thing! I-I am terribly sorry son. I am…so sorry. I’m so sorry!” He pleaded, his voice breaking a bit as he addressed me from his position on the floor. Where Mom had left him.I had thought yesterday was a lot, but honestly, today was even worse!So much worse that I almost wished these whole happenings were just a dre

    HUDSON’S POV“I’m sorry sir, but the chairman is currently resting and won’t be able to see you.” The elderly man who I assumed was the chief butler of the mansion addressed me. His words, not surprising at all seeing as they were literally the exact words he used on me a few weeks back.Ever since I had officially gotten back together with Val after our last issue over housing arrangements, I had made it a point to reach out to her family. To get to know them, introduce myself and let them know I would be taking responsibility for my kids and Valerie seriously. Unlike how I had behaved 5 years ago.5 years ago, I wasn’t even aware Val had a family. That she had people, or even ones as powerful and commanding as the Hernandez backing her… I was clueless and quite foolish, as I have let you all know by now. But I couldn’t continue to be like that.I couldn’t continue to make up excuses and not take responsibility for my actions, especially as now, I badly wanted to be with her. Making

    HUDSON'S POVWith one last exhale to calm the nerves, “I apologize.” I said, “I apologize for showing up on your property without an invite. For continuously trying to barge my way through every time i came here… I have thought about it all through my time out at your entrance and it truly doesn’t sound good.”“So, you do realize that, hm?” He mocked calmly, keeping his eyes trained on me.“Though my means was and still is wrong at the moment, but my reason for this is truly urgent.” I explained, “I am here today, because I am guilty man! A man that has done you wrong and simply disregarded you all these years, especially after finding out that things weren’t as I assumed. I have… I have hurt your daughter. Your granddaughter, Valerie. I hurt her, I abandoned her and totally neglected her when we were married!”“Oh? So, you married her?” He sneered, the distaste in his tone clear. “You married a daughter of mine without my knowledge?!”“Yes!” I confirmed, taking the bull by the horns.

    CHARLOTTE’S POV“You fucking blonde bitch!”“How dare you! How dare you, Charlotte?!” The voice which I so much hate that I recognize right now shrilled in my ears. Literally threatening to render me deaf at such early hours of the fucking morning!‘Argh, this pompous bitch again.’ I groaned under my breath, groggily rubbing my eyes open as her voice continued to scream through my phone speakers. “You have a lot of nerves, Charlotte. So much nerves, but guess what? I’m going to deal with you. I’m going to deal with you stupid ass, you hear me?!”“Hey!” I yelled back, snapping at her. “What do you want, Mrs. Thompson?! What the fuck is wrong with you and why are you screaming in my ears at this time of the morning?! People are still sleeping you know!”“Sleeping?!” She mocked, laughing loudly like a manic. “You really are something, aren’t you?! You dare sleep after what you’ve done?!”What?“What are you talking about?” I asked, some sort of clarity coming to me as I looked around my

    CHARLOTTE’S POVInstantly my neck snapped in her direction, eyes wide as alarm sprung in my heart. “What?” “Madame,”“Wah…what did you say?” I stammered, blinking repeatedly as i tried to see through the rage of emotions swelling up from within me right now; confusion, alarm, disbelief and above all… fear. Fear of been trapped in a cell for whatever reason!“Madame, they are-“I said, what did you say?!” I snapped, my voice ringing out in the room as anxiety got the best of me. “Who the hell did you say is at the door?”“The co-cops madame!” Maria stuttered, clearly sharing my panic as she tried to conceal her trembling fingers. “They have a warrant, and… it’s about the men we paid madame. What are we going to do? How do we escape this, they- they said there is a recording which proves that you indeed paid those guys, Madame. What do we do? How do we-“What did you say to them?” I interjected; my eyes murderous as I closed in on her. “What did you tell them at the door, Maria?”“I- I

    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

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

    HUDSON’S POV“Daddy is making dinner, yay!” Miley's excited voice filled the air.“Yup!” I concurred, enthusiastic as I turned around to face the kids- my guests. “Good evening, pretty princesses and handsome princes! You can call me chef of sweet meals, and I will be preparing dinner!”“Yay!” Aby clapped happily as I introduced myself, smiling as she looked into the camera.“Since when did daddy become a chef? Do they learn that in business school too?” Mason asked curiously, looking around for answers. So typical of Mason, linking stuff around and asking questions as soon as they popped in his head.“No sweetie, no one learns cooking at business school.” Her sweet voice sounded in the air, answering Mason’s question. And in no time her face came into view, her smile flawless as she angled the camera to capture herself as well. “Daddy knows nothing about cooking, which is why I am here recording this moment!
