Chapter: Chapter 51Elena. There was nothing anyone could say that would stop me from thinking that my son needed to be moved out of here but first I had to Honor my part of the agreement. I had promised that I was going to make everything good, and if I was going by that, I didn't think that we should have any problem. "So... You want me to automatically make him your father when we are not yet sure where we stand?" I asked with a smile on my face even though I felt quite the opposite. It was an insult to me that he was not satisfied with everything that I had provided so far and if that was what he wanted then he was going to get it but I was not sure that he would like the outcome. "Mommy don't feel bad."I wanted to let out my genuine intention but realized that it would only have a negative effect on a boy that I was trying to help become a better person. "It's fine if you want him as your father but I'm only telling you this because I don't want you to get hurt nobody can act as your father i

Chapter: Chapter 50 Elena. I had my reservations when we came to a lot of things but there was only one that refused to let me be and it was the fact that there was in may be too many things for me to handle. My moments required also going through a lot of documents and trying to figure out what next I can do to stop my mind from running haywire. Diego was getting out of his uniform and preparing to take a nap or so I thought, but most importantly I wanted to ask him certain questions. "Mommy." I took a deep breath and turned instantly. For some reason, I would have preferred doing something else entirely done being interrogated by my son. "Yes darling?" I inquired with a smile on my face. Diego was too little to be caught within crossfires when I had a theory that was not clear to me so I rather allowed myself to relax and look for other sources that put be okay enough. He regarded me with cool eyes, checking to know if I was mad at the entire scenario or the was another way I could handle

Chapter: Chapter 49Marcus. The meeting was exceptionally lengthy today. "Why do you have that expression?" I queried Toby as soon as the meeting ended. I had noticed him trying to catch my attention but failed woefully at it. "Apparently Elena got to school before the driver did. I don't think she appreciates anyone ruling her life with an iron fist." Toby was my right hand man but even at the same time he couldn't understand the complications between me and that woman. To him she was just being problematic when I knew I was the one who had caused her to go down this drain. "And what's that supposed to mean?""I relate your order clearly but it seems that she had a hard time understanding it. I don't know why and what she wants to prove." If he was speaking this way then it meant that he had absolutely no idea what Elena was capable of. She was the most docile woman you could meet until it was time for her to show you that she had some strength. My mother had spoken ill about her and I understoo

Chapter: Chapter 48Elena's POV. I froze instantly at the accusation. It wasn't because I wasn't happy with it, but the facts that I wanted to keep everything under a wrap. Most people were already suspicious of our relationship and if it was leaked to the media that Marcos had made mistakes in the past it could be used against his political ambition. My first contact with the people who had called themselves important, who was the fact that there were too many things lacking behind. In fact all I needed was some peace and quiet and nothing that reminded me of what I had lost. "So you think that she is suddenly going to forget everything that you've done to her and welcome you with open arms? Is that how daft you think she is?" This was overstretching, but I heard the sounds of sirens in the background. Carnegie must have heard it too, because his spine straightened immediately. This was exactly what I had been hoping for. he had lost the opportunity to escape when he had it. "Calling the cops on

Chapter: Chapter 47Elena's POV. Can Of Worms. I do not want to believe that Marcus has been involved in some shady dealings but even with the most upright people I knew that they could be tendencies to soil their hands. "He who wants to go to war has to come with clean hands. I think you missed that memo." It didn't get lost on me that Marcus did not even bother to deny it. If he had committed such atrocity why was he walking free? "So... You think you have enough dirt on me? Is that why you came here without thinking about what this is going to do to your reputation? How dumb can you be?" Marcus continued.I wasn't going to ever support a murderer just because I wanted to act like I was a great person. Instead I wanted to see how this was going to play out and what was going to be involved. "This is not a matter of accusation and you know it. You've just been smart enough to bring much everyone into thinking that you are such a good person and I cannot wait to watch it blow up in your face." Carn

Chapter: Chapter 46Marcus. "Stop that!" Elena's voice from the top of the stairs distracted me for a second. Why did she even come out of the room after I had expressly told her not to?! "Ooh, the ever sacrificial wife." Carnegie cooed like he had just hit the jackpot. "Elena."This stupid guy would get Elena's name out of his mouth. "Are you willing to take a bullet for him? I don't guarantee you that it would be able to tell him how much you love him afterward."Carnegie looked like he had lost his mind and I didn't want to play silly games with someone who had nothing to lose. In games like this I could already predict how it would end. Somebody was bound to lose his life and I intended for it to be him. My CCTV cameras were working so the police force would have concrete evidence that I wasn't the one who began the fight. "Why are you here?""You're asking me why I decided to come visit my long lost friend? What kind of question is that?" Carnegie responded. He had a knack for acting tough ev
