Over the next few days, Diana has been busy with school and work on the weekends. The only times she would be able to spend with Lucas was when they go for Martial arts classes and on weeknights when she would sleep over at Lucas’s home and go with him to work at Forrest Research Institute.
Nothing noteworthy happened at both places, with undercover bodyguards watching over her, those men with stalkerish behaviors had no way of getting close to her.
Henry’s effort all this time has been in vain, making him depressed. He became useless at his father’s company, to the point that he was even fired by his own father. With no income, he was even more depressed. He turned to finding pleasure from women, finally making use of those photos. He started to sell those racy photos to those websites catering to pornography. The staff behind the website were impressed by his skills in photography but they wanted him to show the faces of the women inst
Struggling to get up, he spoke to the man on the seat. “Sir, I know you’re capable of sending men to help me achieve this. I assure you it’s worth it. If I could get him to give me all of their assets, in exchange for his freedom, then my debt will be paid and you will still have more in the end.” After a long while, Mortimer spoke once again. “Very well. Make sure you are successful. Or else, it’s better if I can’t find you breathing still.” “Uuuwaaa… uwaaaa…” The sound of the crying baby could be heard, startling the maids. “Ah.. Is it time for his milk?” One of the maids said. “I think so.. Go quickly..” Another one said. The maid hurried up the steps and went to the nursery room where the baby was. She could see that the baby was waving his hands around, kicking his feet and crying. She checked first if he had pooped or
Alarm blared in the whole building. Chaos ensued. As the men in uniform guided the prisoners to evacuate the building and gather outside, one jailer escorted a prisoner out who was now wearing one of the officer’s uniform. “A car is waiting outside..” The jailer told him. Osmond nodded, pushing down the anxiety down his gut. He knows that he’s committing a crime now on top of what he has been sentenced before. But he was left with no choice. A few days earlier, he received a call from Henry and was offered a deal he couldn’t refuse. Now he took advantage of the commotion to follow through with his escape plan. He entered the passenger’s seat. Henry was already waiting for him in the driver’s seat. Henry drove off quickly the moment Osmond closed the door, getting far away from the prison as fast as they could.
News traveled fast, anyone who knows them or has heard of them would still talk about the incident for days on end. Speculations just laid on top of each other as days went by. “What if that man paid someone to get him out of prison but was taken by the other one instead?” “What do you mean?” “I mean just like what I said. What if he paid someone to break him out and it was arranged for him to escape with those that he paid but instead, it was the other guy waiting for him..” “Eh? So you mean they’re not actually accomplices?” “Yes.. What if that’s what happened?” “How could that be though? Did that mean that his ex-son-in-law found out that he was planning to break out and was waiting for him outside the whole time?” “That’s probably the case..” “So you mean that he planned to a
The flushing of the toilet could be heard in the stalls of the women’s bathroom. “That guy Quinn seems like an interesting character.” Diana chuckled. Armie was telling her about what Quinn told her while they were at work. It turns out that Quinn has admired Lucas for a long time and was devastated to know that Lucas became engaged with a woman. For a long time, some people really believed the rumors that he wasn’t interested in the opposite sex. So many people’s worlds crumbled once the engagement was announced. They could only nurse their wounds with the thought that he was engaged to a goddess like Diana. “He is.. He still wants to be addressed as Queen though.” Armie laughed. “Even the other employees are used to him by now.” The two exited the bathroom after washing and drying their hands. They walked back to their group who was presently receiving their ordered dishes.
Diana thought about what her dad just said. Is it really because Osmond found out that Henry cheated on Chantal that’s why he would have a motive to take revenge? Although Chantal was the apple of their eye, is it really enough reason for him to cause the accident? She would believe it more if they would say that the reason he’d be wanting to kill Henry is that he entrusted their assets to the wrong person. Perhaps Osmond believed that Henry would really keep it safe and return it to the Winchester family later on. What he didn’t account for, was for Henry to not only pay child support but to actually hide from them, refusing to give the assets back. At this point, even Henry’s addiction to casinos was already revealed. Perhaps Osmond feared that if he didn’t act now, the assets would really be gone. With regards to Osmond’s death, they speculated
The sound of the baby’s cry stirred Chantal from her daze. She looked at the crib where Wyatt was and wondered when she would feel the so-called mother’s love. She thought it would just immediately come out as soon as she birthed the child. She thought that the moment she would see her son, she would fall head over heels for him. Her mom told her that her love for her son would grow as days go by as she gets to know him. But why is it that even now, she doesn't feel that so-called warmth whenever she looks at him. All she saw is a small body who does nothing but drink milk, cry, sleep, poop and pee. Perhaps it’s because he reminds her of Henry. His facial features are so similar to him. He’s like a mini version of Henry. But instead of good memories, she would remember the times he cheated on her, the video he was in, the death of her dad. It’s all the more reason why she can’t look at the child with loving eyes.
Cassandra couldn’t read her niece’s thoughts. She was not as close with Chantal as she was with Diana. Chantal was exactly the perfect mix of Osmond and Vanessa. This would be her first time offering such advice to Chantal as in the past, the latter would just run off to do other things with her friends or that she would rarely communicate with them who were in Maconia. She felt bad for Wyatt when she heard Chantal’s words. ‘What exactly did she want to do?’ “Aunt, I think..for the sake of my sanity, I need a fresh start.” “I know you do. You and Wyatt would be okay. You can start afresh together.” Chantal shook her head again. “No, Aunt. I have to leave by myself. I can’t take Wyatt with me.” “What do you mean? Where are you going?” “Somewhere. I haven’t picked a place yet. But I will leave without hi
If it were another time, Vergil would have opposed Cassandra’s plan to adopt Wyatt. But now that he and his wife Regina were still confined in the hospital and there would still be a lot to do in the company at the moment, they wouldn’t be able to provide care for the child. Also, they’re both already in old age and it would be rather difficult to raise a baby on behalf of his parents. When Chantal and Diana were still children, they didn’t interfere much on how Osmond and Vanessa raise them. But of course, since knowing that Chantal was the one who is the real child of both parents, they have given her more attention. Only half of the attention was given to Diana. With Vanessa staying overseas to recuperate and Osmond forever gone, Chantal’s main support was not there for her at the moment. As grandparents who doted on this grandchild, they could only hope to ease her burden. They know she’s feeling lost with her father and husband gone. Although she and Henr
