Rocco called and said he needs me at Aether, so I couldn't even leave Audrey, knowing that Liam promised me that he would take care of Aud, at least I felt safe to leave the hospital. Hopefully with the second promise he made to me, I won't receive bad news. "So, the other day, Carina talked to me, and she's begging me to allow her to leave the group. It's because She asked me so suddenly, in just a few days their first song will be released, their debut and first conference as a group," said Rocco. I just stayed calm in my seat even though inside, I wanted to explode with anger and wanted to go wild here. "And then I found out that Carina has suffered acute leukemia." "How was she?" “Recovering, Gwen. I have also talked to her that she will not take a leave from the group, and we both agreed that as soon as she recovered, the big event for them will definitely happen." I was frustrated, yes, but at least I never let my emotions swallow me. Therefore, I remain calm and let my mi
"Since you came into their lives, Lucile's life has not been quiet anymore. Her brain was filled with anger and whatever ideas she had just to get you out of their way." Now I was able to follow the direction the words of the man I was talking to were taking. Everything is starting to become clear to me. "The attempt she made to make you miscarry twice, it's all her plan. It just didn't work the second time because the one she ordered—Grandma Minda—was caught." "Is it also the consumption of my family, is she in cahoots with Imelda?" Tearfully, I looked away from the person I was talking to. Maybe because of the answer I will hear from him, I will completely give up. "Is Lucile also one of the ones who planned to make all my family disappear from the world?" "They have planned it... with Ma'am Imelda." I felt like all my energy was drained because of that. She was still with me... she and Henrix, while I mourned the fate of my family and the life I had lost. She sympathized with P
"Do you blame yourself for why that girl was imprisoned? Well, she surrendered willingly-” "And I'm the reason why she turned herself in to the police, Hen." Staying outside of the police station, I did not move to pass through my car on the other side of the road. "I was guilty because... I was also the reason why she committed that sin. My idea is to blame Imelda for the food poisoning that will happen to Tanya. In return for giving her restaurant a bad reputation, Dianne did that." "All because of me!" It was as if my legs suddenly felt weak, I lost the strength to stay standing. "I am the reason why she committed a crime. And now... I'm the reason why she's giving up on herself. Where on Earth could I find peace of mind now?!” I was so upset and with the weight of what I was carrying, I washed my hands from my face and wiped away the tears by myself. While Hen joined me sitting like crazy outside the station while his other arm tried to comfort the hopeless me. "Kris, don't loo
"Why do I still look wrong here? Why am I still bad? Always in your eyes, I haven't done anything right-" "Do you think it's right to insult a person who’s older than you?!" I don't want to raise my voice at her because I know I would just hurt her feelings by making her realize her mistakes, otherwise I don't want to condone her. "I'm going to react to what you did because of insulting your father, and that’s bad! And for not showing them some respect is something I can't tolerate!" "But the reason why I was becoming rude to that guy... isn't that valid, ma?" Even though she hasn't recovered properly, Audrey is already making me cry. "How I became rude to him... is all because of you! I'm just protecting you and myself because he's a bad person, ma! He hurt you before. For causing you violence before, how could I be able to see him becoming a good father to me?!” “Dear… how did you know?” I don't remember when I told her my experience before. That experience is so unpleasant to
"You're still under the company's name, and even the music and the MV you're going to make, it's still going to fall with Aether. That's my concern, Tanya." "Miss G..." Her sudden laugh was random. "We will go through making them cute if they suddenly become tigers." “Aether's strength is its artists, and so its weakness. When their artists disappear, the company is also closed and they won't make any more money. And I know they don't want that." With the kind of behavior Tanya has, I admit that I get a headache from her being cunning. But still, it does something... essential. ***** I'm on my way home today to get some clothes that Audrey will need at the hospital. It looks like it will take up to a week for her to heal there, and my daughter who doesn't change her clothes won't agree. *phone rings* On the passenger's seat, almost next to the door, my cellphone was ringing. I can't reach it since I'm driving and my hands are short. When I checked the caller, it was Audrey calli
"About you... not being the real father of her baby." My jaw clenched with anger, and I also felt in my fists that I wanted to punch. "You lied to me, Henrix! Even the wedding... that's... that's actually not true?! You just let it be known that you're getting married?! Did... Why?!" "Kris... I'm not lying-" "Maui has confessed to me-" "You don't understand!" He tried everything he could to reach my body, and when he did, he didn't let go of my hands he was holding. "When did I tell you that I am the father of her baby? Did I take on Maui's daughter? Have I told you she's my responsibility?" "And the wedding, Kris... I didn't say I was going to marry her. Nothing like that, okay?" His lips touched my hand held by Hen. "It's not like... I'm lying to you. Because what happened, Kris... you believed with the things your eyes have seen and your mind has been thinking." "You thought I had a child with Maui for reasons I don't know. And you also think I'm planning to marry her, because
The face of the man caught by the police is almost swollen due to the punches and blows he receives. He doesn't even want to talk to the police so... he is subjected to violence. "That's enough, chief," when my eyes couldn't take the torture anymore, I stopped the policeman from hitting the criminal with a stick. "If he really doesn't want to admit it, let him. Maybe we should just give him a few days to think about working with us." "Are you sure about this?" Henrix asked. "It's better to settle the case as soon as possible, Kris. It's only a matter of time before that man surrenders. Just one more hit." "Not anymore, Hen-" "I'm going to speak," we heard the criminal's voice. "Just send a dentist here. I think my jaw will be removed." "Yes, as long as you tell the truth first!" The police kicked the criminal's chair closer to us. "Come on!" "I... I'm one of those who was ordered by Ma'am Imelda to... uhh... burn down your house." So, Jessica is really telling me the truth when
"What is my daughter going to do on the rooftop of the hospital? Are you kidding me, Liam?!" He handed me a small piece of paper that said; Come on up here, mom. On the rooftop. "Isn't that Audrey's letter?" When I realized that Liam wasn't really cheating on me, I hurried to take the elevator. Maybe later that child will jump over there, knowing that we were not on good terms when we talked in the past. Gosh, please don't. "If Audrey jumps in there, she won't let you go there," I heard Liam say. He came with me. "Because when you were there, she was expecting you to stop her from doing what she intended to do. So... I'm sure... she didn't have any plans like that." "Are you a mind reader?" I don't care what I say. "Or maybe it's just too obvious on my face that I'm worried... or scared?" Maybe the emotions I feel are mixed. Even my thoughts are no longer well-organized. The car used by Imelda added to my thoughts... that is probably mine. Then it's Audrey, I'm still worried. "
