"Now that you mentioned her. I wanted to run something by you," Mrs Morrison began. "I advise Alice to take your place and use the scholarship to further her education," she said and Ana just stared at her mother.

"Well, it is okay. That scholarship can't go to waste. There is no way I can use it anytime soon in my condition," Ana said after sighing. "It was my dream ticket to change this family's life but Mother Nature has a different plan for me," she added.

"Ana, I know this scholarship was your opportunity to secure your dream job. This is my fault. I will do everything within my power to fix this," Mrs Morrison said and her words made Ana tear up.

"Mum, don't worry about it. You didn't bring this illness upon yourself. Please don't blame yourself. With the scholarship, Alice can go to school. I will look for a job to take care of your medical bills. Please don't stress yourself. Stop working at the restaurant. I will do my best to take care of you," Ana promised and Mrs Morris

    "Hmm, you will have to convince your wife to be okay with it. Get ready, tomorrow is your wedding day. It is going to be grand," Mr Scott announced and Aiden frowned. Once the call ended, Aiden felt the need to let Ana know what was going to happen and what she should expect. He didn't know why he felt like telling her but it didn't stop him from heading towards Ana's room. He knocked on her door and remembered the time he had walked in on her half-naked. He recalled how radiant her skin was. Her baby bump was gradually beginning to show. She was pregnant but very beautiful. The door slowly opened interrupting Aiden's thought. "Can I come in?" Aiden asked calmly and Ana was surprised wondering where the aggressive authoritative attitude went. Ana stepped away from the door and allowed Aiden in. Aiden sat on the sofa in the room and Ana pulled the chair behind the table and sat on it. She was still in the dress she had worn to go visit her mother. It was only a couple of minutes ag

    For some reason, Aiden saw that coming. He felt his father was up to something but he just allowed it to see what his father's motives are. "So, where will you take your wife in the meantime?" Mr Scott asked sipping his drink. "Dad, if you wanted to help, you would not be telling me this on this day," Aiden replied and Mrs Scott joined them. "What is happening, Aiden? Smile is your wedding day. I am so proud of you son," Mrs Scott said and Ruth also joined them. "Where is your wife?" Ruth asked before Aiden could react to Mrs Scott's statement. "Chatting with her friends," Aiden replied with no expression. "Brother, come on. Why do you look like someone forced you to say those vows on the altar?" Ruth asked. "Nothing, just have a lot on my mind," Aiden replied thinking Mrs Scott and Ruth were unaware of the deal that led to him marrying Ms Thatcher. "Here comes the new member of the Scott family," Ruth said drawing the trio, Mrs Scott, Mr Scott and Aiden's attention to Ms Tha

    Next was a resounding slap landing on Ana's face. The servant who had just entered the living room froze in her steps as the sound of the slap drew her attention to what was happening in the corridor above the living room. Ana stared at the woman, holding the side of her cheeks that had received the slap. She shifted her gaze to the servant on the living room floor, and the servant quickly resumed what she was doing and exited the living room. "When I ask a question, you respond. Moron," Amanda said. "Understood. But what is that above you?" Ana said calmly looking above Amanda. Amanda frowned, but out of curiosity followed the gaze of Ana and raised her head to find out what Ana was looking at above her head. The moment Amanda lifted her gaze to look up, a resounding slap landed on her face, almost making her lose her balance if not for the railing that supported her falling weight. "Did you just slap me?" Amanda asked holding the side of her cheek. "Oh! I did? It was a slap? I t

    Back in Toronto, Alice dialled Ana's number after 8 p.m. "Ana, mum just passed out?" Alice said. "What!" Ana exclaimed sitting on the bed quickly from her sleeping position. "I don't know what happened but mummy is not waking up," Alice cried. "I am coming over," Ana said and ended the call before Alice could say anything further. Ana quickly changed her sleepwear into a straight dress and stepped out of her room. She hastened her steps to the staircase and exited the living room. Ana prayed silently in her head that nothing bad happened to her mother. Amanda saw Ana rushing out but said nothing. She stood behind the railing above the living room floor and watched Ana running out of the front door putting on her flat shoes at the same time. "Now where is she going to at this time of the night?" Amanda thought and headed for the staircase. Outside the apartment, Ana headed for the exit gate. Lewis and Perez saw her living and Perez went after her. "Ma'am, please are you goin

    "There is more to this Ana girl than meets the eye," Amanda thought, still trying to hear what Aiden was saying to Ana. Inside Ana's room."As long as you live here, you will live by my rules. Do you understand?" Aiden said."Yes, please," Ana said, with her head lowered."Now what did your mother want at this hour of the night?" Aiden said in a normal tone."My little sister thought she had passed out. So she called me. It turns out, she took some sleeping pills," Ana said and Aiden could understand her reaction but still kept an expressionless face like he didn't care. "You can go see your mum in the morning, but never leave the house without my permission again. Remember, you are carrying my child," Aiden said and made his last statement in a low tone."Hmm, what business does Aiden have with Ana's mother?" Amanda thought hearing Aiden's question which was loud enough but she didn't get to hear Ana's answer and also didn't get to hear Aiden's next statement."And what do you want

    "I am going to choke you to death if you don't answer my question," Amanda said through gritted teeth."Go ahead," Ana said, struggling to breathe. "I know your type, and I know what you are doing," Amanda said and let go of Ana by pushing her backwards. Ana lost her balance and sat heavily on the floor in front of the bathroom door. Ana wanted to get up but felt a pain in her abdomen. She squeezed her eyes shut with her head lowered and in pain, she gripped the floor. Amanda saw Ana's hand gripping the floor and she knew immediately, that Ana was going through pain but ignored her. "The next time you stay in bed, I would have my husband fire you," Amanda said and Ana shook her head in a 'no'. Ana shook her head that way because she was in pain but Amanda mistook it to mean, Ana was objecting to what she was saying. "Did you just say no? I am the madam of this house and you only follow my instructions, idiot," Amanda said and kicked Ana on the side so hard that Ana let out a cry

    Outside, Aiden was sitting in the back seat, now processing what Dr Jerome had said to him, 'Ana had an accident'. "What happened exactly?' Aiden thought unaware the moto rider was following his car. The traffic light turned red and Aiden's car stopped and the moto rider stopped right next to Aiden's car. The person in the helmet, sitting on the motorcycle, turns to look at Aiden's car. When the traffic light turned green, the moto rider moved the motorcycle closer to Aiden's car, like he was going to hit the car, but missed it by a couple of inches. Lewis, upon seeing the motorcycle about to hit their car, moved the car away to avoid the accident and ended up moving into another road lane. This caused other road users to also move in different directions just to avoid crashing into someone's vehicle. The moto rider, unbothered by what had just happened moves in a different direction. Lewis got out of the car, checked the side of the car and looked in the direction the moto rider wen

    "Dad, what brings you here?" Aiden asked, and Mr Scott just stared at Aiden. "A friend of mine called to tell me, he saw you walking into this hospital. Are you okay, son?" Mr Scott said after a while. "Bad eating habits," Aiden replied. "Son, you need to take good care of yourself. Especially, now that you are married," Mr Scott said. "Yes, Dad," Aiden said, knowing his father coming to the hospital had something to do with Ruth. "Let's go home. So you can rest," Mr Scott suggested. "No, Dad. I prefer to distract myself with work. Besides, it is nothing serious. I am fine," Aiden said and they all exited the hospital.Aiden sat in his car and headed back to the office. Mr Scott called Ruth, the moment he sat in his car. "Aiden was at the hospital for himself and there is no record of Ms Morrison coming to the hospital," Mr Scott said angrily. "What! How? She was there at the hospital," Ruth defended. "Did you see her entering the hospital?" Mr Scott asked. "No, but she is th

    He recognized her immediately and hugging Ana, he called out to the woman. "Monica?" Aiden called out causing Monica to freeze in her steps. Monica turned slowly to face Aiden. The two guards who were following her just moved to the side. Aiden was surprised to see Monica with guards and wearing expensive clothing complimented with expensive jewellery. Last they spoke on the phone, she had only confirmed she took money to divorce him. Was it because she found someone richer than him? This was the thought on Aiden's mind as he stared at Monica while hugging Ana with a cold expression. "Mr Scott, I understand you hate me right now. All I can say is that maybe we were not meant to be. In front of you right now is a woman with a heart of gold. Please take good care of her and protect her from your enemies," Monica said and Aiden frowned. He was with Monica and knew her very well. He understood the meaning of her statement despite the obvious and he frowned. "Are you saying someone thr

    "Ms Ana boarded a taxi. They have picked up the details of the taxi. They will contact the driver and find out where he dropped Ana," Mr Jayson said and Aiden ran his hands through his hair. "Just calm down, we will find her. The good news is those who would want to harm her are all in prison. She is safe," Mr Jayson assured. "No, I have one more enemy walking free. Even if there is enough evidence to put him in prison, he is still walking free," Aiden said. "How dangerous is this person?" Mr Jayson asked and Aiden gave the question a thought. Mr Harper may be cunning and a pervert but aside from stealing money, he will not really consider him as one who will use knives and guns. "Never mind. I think I am just worried," Aiden replied. Mr Jayson's phone rang again and his gaze shifted to the phone. He answered it and brought the phone to his ears. "Great," he said and ended the call. "They found the driver. He dropped your wife off at the park. They are on their way there," Mr Ja

    Meanwhile, Ana after resting for a while, packed her stuff and left Aiden a note as she made her way towards the exit. She then gave the apartment one last look and rubbed her belly as she walked out the front door. "I stayed back in your time of need to ensure you're restored to your former glory since it was at my side you lost it all. Now that you are back to the level where we met, you don't have to guilt yourself into being with me. I hope you will understand," Ana whispered to herself as she walked towards the gate. She checked her bag to ensure she had enough cash on her. In her mind, she was planning how she was going to live on her own. No job, no roof over her head. Well, this was her life before she met Aiden except she had the woman she thought was her mother and a little sister. They all lived in a small apartment but now she was all alone. She walked out the gate but stopped when she heard someone calling her. "Ma'am, do you need me to help you with your bag?" aske

    "Let's get out of here before the media gets here," Aiden said and got behind the wheel with Ana sitting next to him. They drove out of the compound and Aiden took Ana to his private apartment downtown. He parked the car in the garage and walked through the front door into the apartment. The last time they were there, they had to come through the back door and hide in the underground apartment. "A lot of work needs to be done here," Ana said. "Yes, but we will not live here. I prefer the apartment on the hill. It is close to my estate business," Aiden said. "So what is going to happen to this apartment?" Ana asked leaning on the side of Aiden and Aiden's hand was wrapped around her. "Clean it up and put it on the market. I already have too many apartments. I reduce them to two," Aiden said. "Okay," Ana said and Aiden walked Ana to the sofa. "I need you to get some rest. Some people will be here in the next 10 minutes to put the house in order. I have to take care of something

    "Now all I need is a good lawyer to wiggle my way out of this mess and leave this state after I have united Aiden with his parents," Mr Scott thought. Aiden returned to Mr Jayson's office and closed the door behind him. He walked towards his desk and made himself comfortable with a smile plastered on his face. "You got a confession out of him?" Mr Jayson said looking at Aiden. "I told you I would get a confession out of him," Aiden said. "My father was right, he only learns and becomes smarter after multiple fails," he added and pulled his phone out of his breast pocket and played the recording to the hearing of Mr Jayson. "We don't need the results from that DNA. This confession is perfect. Great you thought fast. If not we will have to start a search for Mr Andrew Scott's body," Mr Jayson said. "I am surprised though how he managed to bury the wrong body in the presence of all," Aiden said. "That is easy. The body was carried from one point to another in a vehicle. Within that

    "We have the world's attention. We can go out now. We go to court with the rest of the evidence to claim what is rightfully ours," Aiden said holding Ana's hand in his. The two exited the underground apartment and went out of the building. Aiden requested a ride to the courthouse. At the court, Aiden filed the case to begin the lawsuit. Aiden requested protection following the multiple attacks on his life and that of his wife and it was granted. At the president's office, Mr Scott was sitting on the sofa with the president who was not at all happy with what was going on. "Mr Scott, do you mind explaining what is going on between you and Aiden Scott?" he asked. "Mr President. Believe me. It is just a family misunderstanding which had gone out of hand," Mr Scott said. "If I remember correctly, Aiden Scott's name was dragged all over the internet, losing his business, his marriage in shambles and some rumours that say he is not your son. Now you are in the news and you have been ca

    Mr and Mrs Scott's eyes widened as they listened to the news. The news started spreading like wildfire and everyone asked where Mr Jeremy Scott was if he was still alive. "No, no, this is not good," Mrs Scott said with eyes widened. Mr Scott fetched his phone, dialled a number and waited for the call to connect. "I thought you said you were controlling the media space," Mr Scott said through gritted teeth. "Yes, but believe me. I don't know how this got out there. I have my eyes everywhere but I didn't see this one," the person replied. "I am working on it but someone is posting the story when I take it down," he added. "Do something about it," Mr Scott said and ended the call but his phone rang. "I am going to the office. I will get this taken care of before it gets out of hand," Mr Scott said and exited the room. "As usual I have to take care of everything," Mrs Scott scoffed as soon as her husband exited the room. She fetched her phone, dialled a number and waited for the c

    A medical practitioner who was at the entrance saw Mr Jayson falling to the ground and he ran to him calling for help. "He had been shot," the man shouted as held Mr Jayson in his arms. A stretcher was quickly brought out of the hospital and he was carried into the emergency. Meanwhile, Aiden and Ana were both waiting for Mr Jayson to return. After waiting for a while, Aiden decided to go look for him. As soon as he opened the door, the doctor who had provided them the space was standing behind the door. "Mr Jayson was just shot outside the hospital," the doctor said. "What?" Aiden exclaimed "By who?" he asked. "We are not sure but we are suspecting a snipper," the doctor replied. "Stay here, it is not safe outside," he added and left. "They know we are here," Aiden said to Ana. "We can't stay here. It is only a matter of time before they find us. Let's go I know what to do," he said and they both stepped out of the storage room and headed in a different direction. Aiden saw

    "When and how?" Aiden thought as he walked towards the bed and sat on it thinking of what to do. He exited the room and went to the balcony. He held the railing and stared ahead of himself. He leaned on the railing and turned to look at the space behind him. He looked briefly at the light bulb hanging from the roof and he realized it had been changed. The bulb had a camera now. Originally, the bulb had that black ring at the base but it was just for decoration. Now the black ring appears to have a focus. "So this is how the person is watching us," Aiden thought and exited the balcony and saw Ana entering the living room from outside. "You went for a walk?" Aiden asked. "Yes," Ana replied. "Without me?" Aiden asked walking towards her. "I am sorry, I didn't want to disturb you," Ana replied and sat down on the sofa. Aiden stood behind her and massaged her shoulders for a while. Ana immediately felt relaxed. Aiden's phone buzzed with a message and he stopped massaging Ana's sh
