"He was not my master," she replied with a low voice, hinting that she did not really like talking about that matter. "He was supposed to be my partner."

"So you really did quit because your engagement with him ended."

"If you already know what happened, then don't bother asking."

After that conversation, Shantala avoided Hyperion all throughout the day and was only able to face him again when it was time to depart. Just like what Mr. Fuego demanded, Hyperion was to stay in his resort and let Luna be the only one to bring the ransom to the negotiation place.

Inside their room, the mafia boss continued to remind Shantala of the things she had to keep in mind to make sure that their one-time chance of saving Gina would succeed.

"If you need help from my men, simply press this one. It will alarm them and they'll come to back you up," Hyperion said as he showed her the secret button on her clothes located near th

    Shantala slowly regained her consciousness and as she moved, she felt her body still in a numb state. Opening her eyes, she found herself in an unfamiliar place with everything almost of the same shade of light gray to white. With the window just across from her, she could tell that she was most likely at a hotel since she seemed to be up in the air and could see tons of buildings around. Her attention was, then, shifted to the door when it slowly creaked open."Madam, you are finally awake," a middle-aged woman greeted with a smile, the crease on her forehead becoming even more prominent. "I shall prepare some food for you. Kindly wait."She tried to get up but it took her quite a lot of strength to even get herself lean on the headboard. The room she was in was rather large but it was almost empty with only several types of furniture occupying it. Shutting her eyes, flashes of memories came rushing back to her at a fast speed that it still took her a few minutes

    He motioned Guillard to come in and take care of her. Afraid that Shantala would resort to jumping out of the window, he planned to relocate her somewhere isolated and somewhere she was unfamiliar with."Stay away from me!" she yelled as she threatened Guillard with the sharp piece of glass. "If you come any closer, I will kill you."But Guillard still walked in her direction and yanked her hand upward even though a scream penetrated his ears. Just like the first time he did, he did not hesitate to inject some tranquillizer into her. To let the drug work, he put her down on the bed first until she was once again unable to fight.Klauss stepped in and took the glass away Shantala was clutching in her hand. The middle-aged woman, then, came with a first aid kit and let Klauss be the one to bandage the cut on her hand."I told you to behave. If you do, there would be no problem," he said as he wiped off the blood from her palm. He glanced at her and

    Guillard entered the room and brought in a bowl of cereal and a cup of water. Putting it on the side table, he glanced at Shantala who seemed to have regained her original state of mind since she was glaring at him."This time, do not throw your food away because if you did, you won't be getting any after," he told her before turning his back.She glanced in his direction and saw some keys clanging behind his pants and she was quite convinced that one of those keys would be the one to unlock the chains around her wrists. When she was all alone, she got up and sat behind the table. She did not really eat that much back in the hotel because of the disgusting presence of Klauss. But now, she had to fill her stomach so she could have as much strength as she could muster for her escape.After finishing her food, she went to the window and looked below. Several armed guards were standing by the entrance and another pair was just below the master's bedroom. It wa

    Shantala gritted her teeth at the way the question was thrown at her in an insulting way. It simply hurt her pride even though she had already accepted the fact that she was not academically intelligent. It was even entirely her fault to quit school just to work at an early age. And since she was all ticked off, she chose not to say anything and simply lay on her bed.Underneath the blanket, she gripped the syringe so tight out of anger, and since this was all because of Guillard, she badly wanted to inject him.Guillard let out a sigh before standing from his seat. Since it was already nighttime, he had to cook something for their prisoner. This was one of the tasks he did not like that Klauss had assigned to him. But he was given no choice but to do it, thus, he left her alone. He actually wanted to free her but then again, Klauss would surely target his family and that was something he did not want to happen.Shantala, on the other hand, made up her min

    "Her body is still recovering from the effect of the tranquilizer as well as the fatigue she had undergone so she will probably wake up sooner or later. Her wounds are not that deep except the one on her head. From the scans we conducted, there is no serious damage in her head but we still have to wait for her to wake up so we can run further tests and make sure she is fine."After receiving the diagnosis, Helios dismissed the doctor he hired to come and check on Shantala. Looking at her bad state, he did not expect that she would still be able to find her way out of Mr. Fuego's grasp. Or she simply outwitted him since that man's brain was just full of stupidity. But most importantly, Shantala was still lucky that he was the owner of the car she came upon before losing consciousness. If not, she would still be suffering or worse, dead by now.With the back of his hand, he put it on her forehead to check if she was still burning hot just like the first time he

    Putting on the hood, she left the hotel which was, thankfully, just near the dormitory where Lance was staying. After a few minutes of walking, she reached the gates of the campus before calling her brother. On the third ring, Lance answered."I still have some money so I don't want to receive another buck from you." That was his first response even though she did not introduce who she was yet since she just changed into a new phone."Shut it and just meet me here at your campus' main gate. Quick," she responded before ending the call without listening to what he had to say.She just knew that Lance would just complain or even make up some stories just so he could not meet her. Well, that technique won't work on her anymore. Plus, this matter was urgent so she really needed to speak with him. A few minutes later, Lance came to see her wearing a scowl and in no less than a minute, he received a whack from his sister."Did Klauss ever call you these

    Looking outside the window, Shantala had this indifferent expression plastered on her face, and the tears that once damped her cheeks were already dried. She kept telling herself that she should have expected such action from Hyperion since from the very beginning, she was never his priority... and she never was someone he actually cared about. His past actions, both his kindness and consideration, were simply for Stacey and now that he got her back, there was no need for him to be nice to her... much less help her from her ex-lover. Not to mention, he did not hesitate to send her off to Mr. Fuego and even bombed the island even though there was a high possibility for her to be killed. But no matter how many times she tells herself that, she still cannot shake away the pain tugging at her heart. "I told you," Klauss said, breaking the deafening silence between them, "Hyperion couldn't care less about you." Shantala simply stood quiet and

    Shantala had sent emails and dialed numbers but they all had the same response to her."I apologize, ma'am, but we are not allowed to disclose the personal information of the company's CEO.""Ma'am, you have to set an appointment to be able to meet the CEO. But unfortunately, his schedule is full today so he cannot accommodate you."She heaved a heavy sigh and threw her phone on her bed and decided to once again open her diary. She flipped through the pages and started on the entries where she could no longer remember but even though she read all through them, the mission that she was assigned to was never even mentioned. And it was the biggest question she had in mind.Just then, upon reading the last page she had not gone through yet, Guillard's name was mentioned. It was written that he was a part of the team that will execute the mission but his role was not specified. This made her sit up from her bed as the guard's voice resounded in her ear

    Hyperion and Stacey were currently in his office while tension lurked around them. Even the mafia boss' secretary could feel the ominous aura trapped inside the office so he never dared go in. The couple had just finished arguing about what happened with the meeting with Mr. Devon."Are you really being serious about this? Have you not even considered my feelings? I already let the fact that you fucked my sister slide but taking her son to take care of him... no!" Stacey asked for the nth time. She just could not sit still and wait for her sister to take away what she already had. She would never let her take her husband away. NEVER. Even if Shantala had already given birth to the son of her husband, it was still not enough for Stacey to let go of her love. Hyperion, who was already tired of this argument, chose to remain quiet. He just knew that if he said another word, they would be shouting at each other again.Just then, a knock was heard on the

    "Hi! I am Tricia Miller, the substitute nurse sent by Sir Helios," the guest greeted. Linda was unsure of what to do so before letting her in, she went back inside to consult the nurse and Shantala. "What's the matter?" Lily asked. "A young woman came and said that she is the temporary substitute nurse," Linda replied. Lily stood from her seat since she had been expecting the nurse Helios mentioned before. She went to the door and escorted Tricia inside, however, when the guest and her patient saw each other, she noticed the change in Shantala's expression. "Replica A1?" she muttered, wondering why she would suddenly appear again after some time. Tricia smiled and replied, "That used to be my name but my real name is Tricia. And I will be your nurse for the upcoming days." Shantala actually doubted her since they were not on good terms during

    It was almost midnight and Hyperion had just gotten back from the company after dealing with the trouble that one of his employees brewed. Though, it was not fully resolved so he had to return anytime soon. It exhausted him but still, it did not stop him from heading to the Devon's residence to check on Shantala.It's already been almost a week since he last visited and he wanted to see how she was doing. Upon arriving at the house, he stopped in his tracks when he saw the kitchen lights on. Curious about whoever was in there, he took careful steps in order not to alert the person inside. Though, he was quite sure that it was no burglar or anything of that sort since he had the entire house under surveillance.When he stood by the entrance, he immediately recognized Shantala even though her back was facing him. She was wearing a white dress shirt which was obviously not hers but Gavin's since it was oversized, falling right to the middle of her thighs, covering her

    "How dare you show up in this place!" Mr. Devon roared. "Up until now, can't that fucking tiny brain of yours realize that the cause of my son's death is you? Or do you just have no shame at all that you still chose to stay even though you ruined his life?!"The stinging pain on her cheek did not really matter to Shantala because it was not any more hurtful than losing her husband. The accusation that her father-in-law made against her did not affect her as well because she knew who was really at fault.Despite having the chance of getting another slap from him, Shantala still looked back at him with no sign of fear. She could see how enraged he was but, for sure, it was not because he lost Gavin but because he lost the chance of marrying him off to Phoebe Romalia.She scoffed. "Instead of pointing your finger at me, why don't you reflect on the actions you did? Didn't you threaten him to divorce me that was why he returned here? Didn't you want him to mar

    Back in Vidale City, Mr. Devon was currently playing golf with his business partners. It was his usual hobby whenever things were going quite well. In the middle of their conversation, he received a call from one of the bodyguards staying in his son's residence."Sir, I just spoke with the attorney. Both Sir Gavin and Miss Kierra signed the divorce papers," he reported."That's great, that's great," Mr. Devon responded with a smile before ending the call. "We should celebrate.""For what occasion?" one of his business partners asked.They knew that Mr. Devon rarely held any sort of party so it made them curious as to why he would initiate a celebration."For a new beginning."Thus, in no time, the mansion of Mr. Devon was filled with people from different elite families. He was a bit disappointed, though, since Mr. Romalia was not there to celebrate the beginning of their soon-to-be prosperous business. "Hey, Dad," Amelia c

    Mr. Romalia was quite puzzled. The successful separation of the couple should be something that his daughter should be happy about. However, she looked rather exhausted and no hint of happiness was on her. Plus, he noticed a bruise on her cheek."What happened? Shouldn't we celebrate such great news?""Gavin is rushed to the hospital. It... It seemed like his condition worsened because of my negligence. I just realized that Kierra is the only fitting woman to be his wife. I'm giving up."Upon hearing her reply, Hyperion immediately stood."Mr. Romalia, I apologize but let us discuss this matter further some other time. I will contact you as soon as possible." Even before Mr. Romalia could respond, Hyperion immediately ran out of the mansion and got into his car. At full speed, he rushed to the hospital. He very well knows that he promised himself that he should stay away from Shantala until her relationship with Gavin was legally severed

    Gavin could only look away while Shantala left the living room. Staring up at the ceiling, he tried his hardest not to let a single tear escape from his eyes.A little while later, Phoebe came in together with his attorney. The first thing that the Romalia heiress looked at was the divorce documents. Upon seeing the signature of Shantala, she was over the moon that she immediately pounced on Gavin."We are getting married!" she exclaimed.The attorney cleared his throat to notify the young heiress that he was still there. He gathered the papers and put them back in his case before returning his gaze to Gavin."I will take care of the rest and make sure that Ms. Kierra will get her alimony as soon as possible." After saying that, the attorney left rolling his eyes to the side upon meeting the gaze of Phoebe.The young heiress was about to charge toward him but she calmed herself with the thought of acting as the perfect wife and partner fr

    This was where Shantala got confused. She was sure that the dead person in that room was her mother but how come her death was not reported? And how come the police confirmed that she was that person instead?"How did you do that?" she asked. "You know, the thing wherein the police saw that the body was you?""Chiavelli actually paid the officers who investigated the scene. Thus, they ended up confirming that I was indeed that person. But as for the body..." Valerie looked away as she pursed her lips.She waited for her, not wanting to rush her or anything.After a minute, Valerie added, "It was someone else's body with the same face as mine. It may sound absurd but a few hours before the engagement party, she suddenly came out of nowhere and told me to help her. She was beaten up and clearly, she was so scared. What was even weirder about that incident was that she introduced herself as Replica A0."Shantala's eyes widened as she remembe

    Since Shantala got into an agreement with the attorney, she let him go to the house first. She will, later on, be going back home to make it look like she has gone somewhere else. She simply feared that if she and the attorney went together, Gavin would become suspicious. Wanting to take her time, she was about to go to the grocery store only to bump into Valerie and Chiavelli.And now that she saw the person who claimed herself to be the original Tricia Vexmore, the questions she had on the day her trial turned into chaos came rushing back to her. Only weeks had passed ever since that day but Shantala felt like it was already years ago due to the consecutive stressful events she had gone through. And instead of greeting her, she just stood there staring at her with wide eyes.Thus, Valerie took the initiative to start their conversation. Besides, this might be the last time they will see each other. Chiavelli also left for them to have some privacy."It's
