Chapter 31: The Vicious Cycle

“Fix it!”“How?”“I don’t care. Just fix it and make it go away. I’m not going to let that demented demon take the public’s attention away from my daughter’s search.”“Do you realize what you’re saying, Emilia? Fixing this means letting Serena walk free.”“So be it. If you’d had the decency to keep your dick in your pants, we wouldn’t be having this conversation right now.”Kane groaned. “I’ve already explained that to you a million times. I was drunk that night and I still don’t remember what happened. I didn’t do it deliberately.”“So you say…”“You still don’t believe me?”“That’s not important right now. Do everything you must to make sure that Serena doesn’t spill her gut to the world. It’s bad enough that the police are already awar

Chapter 32: From Bad To Worse

“We should go to the hotel,” Kane suggested when Emilia had finally calmed down.“I’m not going anywhere until we find my daughter,” she replied stubbornly.“I understand how you feel but as you can see, it’s getting late. There isn’t much we can do anymore at this time.”“So what do we do when we get to the hotel?”“Strategize and plan for tomorrow. Maybe we can finally involve the local police.”She sighed. “Fine. Let’s go.”They were keeping a low profile in Mexico but that didn’t stop Kane from lodging them along with their companions in one of the finest hotels in the city.He’d gotten a single room for himself and Emilia because he didn’t want to raise eyebrows in case they were recognized by name.“I’ll take the bed and you can sleep on the couch,” she said dismissively when they entered the

Chapter 33: Mourning The Undead

Five months passed and Tiara Beaumont was still missing. Finally, the family came to terms with the painful truth that she may never be found.It was a hard pill to swallow but everyone had to accept the sad reality and carry on with their lives. Emilia showered all of her attention on Travis while Kane buried himself in work.“Do you have any plans for Travis’ second birthday?” Elsie asked Emilia one afternoon while they sat in the garden, enjoying the warm outdoor weather.“No,” she said flatly. “What’s there to celebrate? His twin is still missing.”“And she will be found eventually.”“Please, stop saying that. There’s no point hanging on to false hopes.”“Fine. But let’s have a small party for dear Travis. Let’s not deprive him of a celebration because of – ““Don’t say it.”“I’m sorry.&r

Chapter 34: There's A New Sheriff In Town!

“What the hell is going on here?” Kane demanded.“What’s it look like?” Serena retorted. “I’m here to stay, of course.”“Stay where?”“In Beaumont Mansion. I’m family now.”“Says who? Who let you in, by the way?”“Everyone here knows me, so, why wouldn’t they let me in?”“Well, congratulations. You’ve just cost them their jobs because I’m firing everyone who permitted you to walk through those gates and come here to knock on the front door.”“That’s their luck,” she replied with a shrug. “it’s none of my business.”Kane had never despised anyone as much as he did Serena right now. Harry had come to fetch him as soon as he opened the front door and found her standing there with a big belly and six suitcases.It was barely a week after Jack’s funeral, Emilia was still not talking to him and now this clown just showed up at their doorstep at the crack of dawn to cause trouble.“Find someone to help her carry her bags outside,” he said to Harry. “And inform them that she’s never to be all

Chapter 35: Burning Bridges

“For god’s sake, Emilia, it’s been three weeks! You can’t keep complaining about everything Serena does or says. It’s becoming unbearable.”“Excuse me?”“You heard me,” Lillian replied with a straight face. “At some point, you’ll have to get used to living under the same roof with her.”“But it’s not just her anymore, is it? Her so-called mother who appeared out of nowhere is also a part of this madness. She speaks to me rudely and encourages Serena to continue acting as if she’s my equal.”“First of all, that’s her foster mother. The woman was homeless, so it was not out of place for Serena to invite her here to live and have a familiar face around her.”“Whatever…”“Second, we all know Serena isn’t your equal and she can’t be, no matter how much she tries. Her being here is temporary,

Chapter 36: The Reboot

“Granny’s dead. She passed away this morning,” Emilia’s mother informed her over the phone the following morning.“Oh, dear. I’m so sorry, Mom.”“Thanks, darling,” her mother replied brokenly and blew her nose.“I’m coming home with Travis today. We’ll be on our way soon.”“That would be nice. We’re heading to the countryside later today. Daddy’s not going with us, though. He’ll join us tomorrow after he’s sorted out things in the restaurants.”“Ok. We’ll see you soon.”After she hung up, Emilia curled up in her bed again and cried. Granny was gone. She’d never feel her grandmother’s warm embrace anymore or hear her calm singsong voice.She wished she could cry all day but that wasn’t possible. She needed to get Travis ready for the trip to her parent’s home.“Where are you going?” Lillian asked her as she and Travis marched behind the maids who were dragging her packed bags towards the front door.“We’re going to my parents’ house. My grandmother died this morning.”“Oh, I’m so sorry

Chapter 37: All At Once

Shortly after her family left, it began to rain. Emilia sat on the porch with Travis but they were driven back inside the house by the leaking roof.She decided to make pancakes for Travis but then thought she heard someone tinkering about on the porch. When she went to check, she found Matt there, fixing the leaking roof. The rain had stopped but the skies were still dark with the promise of a coming storm.“What are you doing here?” She asked and Matt almost fell off his small ladder.“Jesus! You startled me. I thought everyone was gone.”“Travis and I are still here. How did you know the roof was bad?”“It’s been like this for a while now. I kept promising Bertha that I’ll fix it but I never got around to doing it. When it started to rain, I remembered and rushed down here to finally fix it as my parting gift to Bertha.”“That’s sweet,” said Emilia. She was genu

Chapter 38: It's A Crazy World

“Are these guys for real?” Chloe asked in awe as she watched the news on TV with Emilia.It was the following day after receiving that disturbing text and she’d spent nearly 24 hours on Google, trying to search the exact location of the Homer Shed.“I can’t believe this,” Chloe continued.“When it comes to the Beaumonts, nothing surprises me anymore about them.”“Did you know they were working on this so-called rehabilitation centre?”“No. Once they accepted Serena as a part of the household, I became the outsider. I’m also just finding out now along with millions of viewers that my husband’s family is commissioning a new drug abuse rehabilitation centre in memory of the newly deceased Jack.”“But you should be there too. Instead, they took that kidnapper there. That’s so disrespectful.”“Oh, well. As you can see, they’re passing her off as Jack’s girlfriend who’s pregnant with his baby. That earns them extra sympathy votes.”“We should expose them to the world and let everyone know t

Chapter 39: Oh, Well!

“I’m so sorry about the miscarriage, Chloe. You didn’t deserve to go through that kind of pain.”“It’s ok. I wasn’t meant to have that bay any way and don’t even pretend that a part of you isn’t happy that this happened.”Emilia didn’t know how to react because Chloe was right. “Well…”“It’s fine, big sis. I’m sort of glad too. It would’ve been very difficult to raise a child alone while the father that rejected it is balling with his psycho wife.”“Lillian isn’t a psycho, though. She’s just a little stuck up, that’s all.”Chloe snorted. “But not too stuck up to be a freak. Samuel thought she was cheating on him again.”“Then why is he renewing marriage vows with her?”“To spite me, of course. Why else? Such a petty bastard. I can’t believe I was ever in lo

Chapter 40: All Hell Breaks Loose

“I’m so sorry, Emilia. I can’t even imagine how disappointed you must feel right now.”She blew her nose into a tissue and acknowledged Matt’s comment with a nod. She was too broken to even speak. She was mentally, physically and emotionally exhausted.“Let’s just go back to the hotel, ok? You need to rest.”“Of course,” she sighed and leaned back on the chair.Matt drove them back and the ride was a silent one. At this point, Emilia was ready to give up the search permanently and finally accept the hard truth that she would never see Tiara again.When they arrived at the hotel, Matt took her to her room and asked her if she wanted anything.“Stay with me,” she whispered. “I don’t want to be alone.”“Are you scared?”“No. I think I’ll lose my mind if I have to stay here by myself all night.”“Ok.
