Knights Mansion In Maile"Why do we have to stay indoors while Queenie doesn't remember who she is?" Liam asked for the nth time since he was brought there. He had tried to convince Jacobs Knight that Queenie needed their help but the man had remained adamant that the brewing situation would be resolved if they no longer tried to double cross Natasha. Lucas, who has also been tied up to prevent him from leaving the room when no one was looking, spoke out. "Most times I wonder if you really bore Queenie with our mother or she's also adopted like that vile spawn, Natasha." "Enough of the badmouthing against our sister!" Lucian cut him off furiously. Accusing eyes turned to him but that didn't deter his next words. "Natasha has always been out of her mind and distant with us because she thinks we do not care much about her." "I actually don't." Lawrence mused from where he sat. He received a warning glare from Lucian. "If we act on impulse and go on a killing spree we would be givin
No one said anything. Roxanne seemed rather relaxed as she drummed her finger on the table. It sounded like she was counting but when they looked at her face, she had her signature smug smile which made it difficult for them to know what she was thinking. "Are you all accepting her back to the conglomerate?" She finally asked, relieving her finger of the work of drumming on the table. "Should I remind you of what the three of them did back then?" "They're all aware, Roxanne. Besides, people do make mistakes. You do also, so why are you holding ours against us?" Raphael asked, a gloomy smile evident on his face. Roxanne's eyes settled on his face and a frown occupied her face. "Raphael Dean, I wasn't talking to you. But since you took the initiative to speak to me first, I'll answer you." Then she leaned forward and spat out. "Your errors have long surpassed what anyone can think of. The only mistake Queenie made back then was to leave you half dead. She disregarded my suggestion o
She was soon interrupted when a call entered her phone. Apprehensively, she stopped what she was doing and searched for her phone. Seeing it was her nightmare, she sighed and then swiped the green icon with shaky hands. "I want to see you today Alicia. Make your way to Fountain Valley in thirty minutes. Delay can be very dangerous." "..." Before Alicia could say anything, the call got ended by him. Knowing the man as a man of his words, she quickly got herself ready and walked out of the room. She collided with Velon who was walking in tiredly at that moment. The man looked her over before asking, "Where are you going?" "To meet a friend." It wasn't the first time he had asked her such but it was the first time she reacted in a calm manner. Her behavior got the man suspicious but he decided not to let it show and merely nodded his head. "Okay." The woman hurried out of the house almost immediately and the man continued walking to their bedroom. When he met the disheveled room, h
Before anyone knew it, two months had passed and Queenie had become even more cranky. Audrey, Jessica and Roxanne had returned to her side and as a result, she didn't think anything was wrong. As her day of delivery grew closer, so did the nervousness in their body heighten. Natasha nor Raphael hadn't made any move and the thought that they could be aiming to hurt Queenie and her child when they were at their lowest caused everyone a heartache. Jacobs on the other hand battled with his cancer while having restless nights. That morning, Queenie walked out of the bathroom with a face towel to wipe off the water on her face. Pierce, who was typing something, stopped and looked towards her. He put the laptop down and walked to her. She sat down on the bed and held her waist as her bulging stomach caused her great pain. "Have you come again to see what your children are doing?" She asked with a smile. Pierce returned the smile and squatted, then placed his head gently on her stomac
In a suiteNatasha poured a glass of whiskey for the nervous Raphael. She dropped the bottle and took up the glass. "Here, have a drink to calm your nerves." She said as she pushed it towards him. The man stared at her then at the glass. He took it after a moment of hesitation and took an aggressive sip. "I don't get your plan, Natasha." He said as he dropped the glass back on the table hastily. Natasha smirked and drank directly from the bottle. "What exactly do you not understand, Raphael?" "Queenie should go into labour any time soon. I heard you instructing someone over the phone to take action when that happens. That is what I don't understand." The man clarified. Natasha looked at him and shrugged. "The road will be blocked and she'll stay in traffic for a long time before she gets to the hospital." "You don't sound like someone who would be willing to remove the cause of the traffic later on." Raphael mused. "Yeah, I know." She sighed and took his glass of whiskey after
Many diving into the water and others running as fast as they could, there was an uproar."I will skin Natasha alive the next time I see her!" Audrey screamed bitterly as she plunged into the sea while Roxanne followed.The bomb detonated two minutes later. A lot of people dropped dead on the bridge while others were caught mid air and fell into the water dead. Minutes later, numerous police vans rushed towards the bridge with fire fighters trailing behind them. The emergency response also arrived."Help me, help me please." a woman sitting next to his son whose two legs were detached in the explosion begs, she was covered in bruises. She was still speaking when the ambulance arrived and helped the boy to the ambulance cot...."I'm very tired, Jessica. Let's find somewhere and rest for a minute. I don't think I can move any further." Queenie, who was running out of breath, said breathlessly. However, Jessica didn't stop moving. She was tired as well, but because she was scared the
In the hospitalIt's been two hours since Queenie got to the hospital, everyone was waiting but there was no news from the doctor and this bothered Pierce so much, he decided to go meet the doctor himself but Jessica suggested he stayed back."How long does it take for a woman to give birth?" This he asked subconsciously, placing his hand on his jaw in wonderment."It could take a few hours depending on the person and condition." Jessica, who was worried as well, replied. Peirce wore a worried look. "It's normal to be worried. But if you keep acting like this we'd both be crazy and on edge. So, please, Pierce Verlice, calm down." She said word for word. She paused for a while then continued, "Child birth can take the whole day or even two days, you never can tell.""A whole day, really?" Pierce narrowed his eyes at Jessica's direction. The almighty Pierce Verlice was acting like a child and the thought of that made her let out a laugh. "As I said earlier, you just have to be calm
In the hideout suite "have you contacted Kim, yet?" Natasha enquiries, pouring wine in a glass.Raphael had a sinister look and replied "I think her line is off the hook, I tried over and over again." He paused for a moment, he continued. "Natash, don't you think you went too far?" This he said, motioning his hand and head in a suggestive but fearful manner.On hearing him, Natasha cast a warning and malicious look at him.Raphael sensed danger so he rephrased his statement."I mean, we went too far, concerning the bomb but sending Kim to the hospital to kill Queenie is way too much.""And your point is?" Natasha replied, motioning her hands."Never mind, Queenie deserves whatever she is going through right now." Raphael commented, although he didn't really mean what he said, his purpose was to convince Natasha he's on her side.As she gulped the wine from the bottle, and uttered "who needs glass when you can just drink from the bottle itself, it tastes much better, don't you think
