Jeri, Aysel and Freya dropped from the car after the car doors were opened for them. However, Mr. Elias and Sophia were asked to stay back in the car while they went to survey the house.They looked around the house, but there was no movement, let alone a figure of anyone.Jeri exhaled deeply, walked up to the small house and stood at the entrance, her mind racing. Although there were bodyguards armed with guns, the three ladies were scared to knock on the door. Jeri turned around, and gestured to one of her guards to knock on the door. The young obeyed with a slight bow. He approached the door and as he lifted his hand to knock on the door, he abruptly stopped after a voice echoed from the background."You're looking for Dr. Emiliano," a young man in a complete black d

Jeri stood at the entrance of the old clock tower, her heart racing with anticipation and fear. She had no idea what to expect, but she was determined to find Dr. Emiliano, hoping to find her mother as well after this.Her guards escorted her until she found herself standing at the entrance. Jeri's allies stopped at a distance, waiting for a signal if anything happened during the meeting. As Jeri stepped inside, two men dressed in suits stepped forward and stopped her from taking any step further.Without saying a word, one of the men extended his hand, gesturing for Jeri to handover everything that she came with. Jeri rolled her eyes without uttering a word as well. She handed her purse to them but didn't give out her phone.“You can't go with that, madam," one of the men said, pointing at her phone.“Why?" She asked, her brows furrowed.“It's an order from our boss. So please give it to us," the young replied, his hand stretched out.She handed the phone to them, her eyes narrowe

With that, Adrian disappeared into the shadows, leaving Jeri behind.Jeri stood there dumbfounded, her heart pounding heavily against her chest, wondering what to do. Perhaps it was time to report these CEOs for their illegal activities. However, what was holding her back was the threat. Although she was displaying how terrified she was about the whole thing, she was confused of how to handle the situation without her business being tempered with.With a heavy heart, Jeri turned around and left the small room. She headed to where she left her allies.As she approached them, everyone gazed at her, expecting good News. Before she could arrive at where they were standing, Sophia rushed to her.“How did it go?"

The 24-Hour Countdown

Now, Jeri, Aysel, Freya, and Sophia found themselves in Darien's office, ready to confront him.They all stood before him, their arms folded above their chest as though they were there to fight him.“If I may ask, what's all this drama about?" Darien inquired, his gaze skeptical as he sat on his executive office chair, his hands resting on the office table.“Darien,” Freya responded after exchanging glances with the other three ladies. “ We are here to address some issues that need to be tackled before they get worse.”"You are here to address an issue?” Darien frowned, as he assumed Freya had revealed to Jeri what happened between him and her mother many years ago. " What issue are you talking about? Because I can't remember telling you that I have any issues that need someone to help me out of.”"Look, Darien,” Jeri jumped into their conversation, " we are not here for some silly conversations, rather, to educate you about your mother's evil plan against you and your entire househol

A Surprise Reunion

While they were driving home, something caught Jeri's attention from the roadside. She immediately informed her guards to stop, which they did.Dropping off the car, Jeri ran up to an old man who was standing by the roadside with an umbrella above him.“Dr. Emiliano," Jeri called out, her voice barely audible as she tried to find out who the old man was.The old man lifted his head and gazed at Jeri who was staring at him with skepticism.Immediately they had eye contact, the old man was taken aback after realizing who was standing in front of him."Jeri," Dr. Emiliano said, his voice weak but warm. "I've been waiting for you."Jeri rushed to his side and tightly embraced him, relief washing over her. The two hugged each other like a father and a daughter who hadn't seen each other for years."Dr. Emiliano, I've been searching everywhere for you." Jeri said after breaking the hug. " Where have you been all this while?” Dr. Emiliano's eyes clouded. "I know, Jeri. I've been hiding. Fr

Beneath The Surface

“Yes sir." Jeri nodded as she sat with her legs crossed, anticipating what the old man would say.“Well," he said, “ my real name is not Dr. Emiliano but Dr. Williams Gregory.”"What?” Jeri gasped, her eyes widened in astonishment.“Yes, Jeri, that's my name," the old man explained. " However, Darien has no idea what my real name is.”"Why?" Jeri quickly asked with skepticism."Because I kept it a secret from him. Someone who knew me from a coffee shop brought Darien to me because the young man in question believed that I was in the best position to assist Darien achieve his goal. This young man, however, doesn't know that Darien was my grandson, neither does Darien know.“When they came seeking help from me, I immediately told myself that this is my grandchild because he looks so much like his father. I was expecting Darien to recognize me, as his father might have shown him the pictures of his grandfather. Unfortunately, Darien failed to recognize his grandfather.“I used the littl

Unmasking The Killer

Before the old man could shut his mouth, Sophia inquired, “ Does that mean the search for your mother's whereabouts is over?”“Why should the search for my mother be over, Sophia?" Jeri responded, “ my plan was to help Aysel before I could mention it again. However, as it stands now, I think I would have to get answers to all my questions concerning my mother's whereabouts as Aysel's case is getting lengthy and more complicated.”“No, Jeri," Freya cut into their conversation as she understood Jeri was about to throw a question at her. “ Remember our agreement? We agreed that I will tell you everything I know about your mother's whereabouts only after we've solved the current situation. Wasn't that our agreement?”"Of course, we all know that was our agreement, Freya," Jeri countered. “ But why were you threatening to report Darien to the police if he failed to report himself? Isn't it obvious that there's something fishy between you both? Again,

The Sins of the Parents

“What?" Darien gasped, his eyes shifting from the old man to his father. “ What did I just hear you call him, father?" “You heard him well, Darien," Dr. Williams cut in, causing Darien to avert his gaze away from his father to Dr. Williams.“Dr. Williams,” Darien called, still trying to comprehend what was happening. " I have been searching for you. You were nowhere to be found a few months after Jeri had left this city. I thought she came back and took you away demanding that you saved her life. I was astonished when she came to my office asking me about you. Where have you been all this while? And why is my father addressing you like that?”"How many times do you need to be told that Dr. Williams is your grandfather?” Jeri snapped."Zip your mouth, Jeri. I wasn't talking to you,” Darien countered, his brows drawn together.“What Jeri said is nothing but the truth, Darien," Dr. Williams responded, walking past Darien, his hands tucked behind him.“Huh?” Darien gasped.
