Paige's POV

It's two months and two weeks today, since the incident and Brandon has still not moved a muscle. I could see Lisa losing herself slowly as she watched him by his bedside nonstop, morning, afternoon, night.She would just sit, watch and cry, nothing anyone said to her made any difference,it is like she has lost her grip. She only bothers to take her drugs and do the necessary checkups to ensure her baby is growing properly, even her feeding has become very poor despite all we have said to get her to eat. It is like life just stopped for her and I can't do anything about it.

His condition was now affecting everyone, even Jace has become a shadow of himself. It is like everyone was slowly losing the hope they had once had.

Although he doesn't know that I know but I am usually awake when he sneaks out of our room at night, He would sit by himself for hours crying and blaming himself then he would sneak back in by morning before anyone else wakes up . The twins were also starti

    Jace's POV"Carlos, what's wrong? Put the gun down, let's talk about it," Brandon said calmly, reaching out for the gun, while we all watched in shock."Don't come any closer or I will shoot you," Carlos threatened, his eyes red with anger."You are not thinking straight, Carlos," Brandon tried to reason, but even I couldn't make sense of anything. Brandon? But why?"I am thinking better than all of you in this room put together now move or I will shoot you too," Carlos spat, turning off the safety of the rifle he had in hand, his resolve very strong. Move? "I am sorry, I can't let you do this," Brandon said adamantly, and that was when I noticed her Catherine was safely tucked behind Jay, who shielded her, her shoulders shaking profusely as she cried while Brandon stood in front of them both."Do you even know what she has done?" Carlos asked in shock and disbelief, but I couldn't help the sigh of relief that left my lips as I realized my mind was only playing games with me; some be

    Jace's POV"You still can't reach her?" Brandon asked, walking into my study as I dropped the fifth call I have made in the past hour. I should have gone to get her myself, there was no information on her or Carlos either, everything is going to shit."Still nothing," I answered, collapsing on my seat in frustration. My patience was wearing thin with every passing minute, the detective had called us earlier on that they had finally gotten a lead and with the information they had we weren't safe, Carlos, Brandon and I decided that we had to leave the country like Carlos had suggested earlier on when the issue with Aurthur happened. We had made all the necessary arrangements within minutes, as it was a plan we had been spotting even before now. After we sent Carlos to get the girls and the twins, we stayed back to clear up a few things at the office. We were supposed to all meet at the airport, but I knew something was wrong the moment I called Paige, and my instincts were right."How i

    Jay's POV"Jay," Brenda slurred as she staggered into my room, she was still quite drunk from last night, and I don't expect any less after all she did have a lot to drink."Why are you still here, Brenda?" I asked my voice, blank and devoid of emotion, exactly how my heart felt, too."Oh, come on, Jace, don't be that way, don't tell me you were expecting me to leave so early after all the fun we had last night," She said, more like a statement than a question."It's almost 2 in the afternoon, how is it early?" I asked trying to hide my disgust as she wiggled her fake ass in my face.Brenda is my newest assistant after the last one got married and moved away; she left like everyone else did. I knew from the moment I saw her she wanted something more than a job, and with everything going on right now, I happily decided to play her little game with her."Come on, let's have a little fun first" She said trying to press her fake ass on my groin but there was no reaction and I am sure she

    Paige's POV"Lisa," I called out softly, wrapping my hands around her body as she sobbed uncontrollably."She can't die, Paige, she can't," she cried, placing her head on my shoulder."She won't die, the doctors are doing all they can," I assured, rubbing her shoulders to soothe her."She wanted to fix things, I saw it I'm her eyes, but I wanted to be stubborn, I wanted to make her feel pain like I did, and now I may never get the opportunity again," she sobbed."Don't say that, your mother is a fighter, she will make it out of there." "Didn't you hear what John said? She has been sick, and I didn't even know she had been battling cancer for months now, and I had no idea; she couldn't tell me, not after shutting her out of my life.""You can't blame yourself, you didn't know, you couldn't have known," I soothed."I could have at least gotten someone to check on her. I just turned my back on her like she didn't mean anything, she was only married to the man who hurt me, she didn't des

    Catherine's POV "You fucking promised you weren't going to shoot anyone" I snapped angrily at Alfred once we had gotten away to somewhere safe."And I would have kept to my promise if the woman didn't get in the way" he clicked, his voice smug like he had just done a noble thing."How was she in your fucking way?" I shot trying to put my temper in check, a temper would not get me anywhere right now."She saw us and there was no way she was going to keep quiet about two people parked across their house dressed in black with rifles in their hands," he said."You are so impossible, the guns were meant for scaring off anyone who wanted to question us or in a worst-case scenario protect ourselves, the woman didn't even look in our direction, didn't you notice she wasn't even paying attention to her environment " I bellowed."Exactly why it was so easy to shoot her and escape before anyone could see" he responded proudly."You keep hoping and asking for freedom from all this but all I see

    Paige's POVSeven months later "Lis, aren't you done yet?" I yelled Knocking frantically on her room door."AImost, just give me a minute" She yelled back, followed by loud rustling from the room."Lisa, open this door right now or you will leave me no other choice than to break it down "I threatened."Yeah, says the heavily pregnant one" She chuckled."Don't test me, Lisa," I warned.'I'm done, I'm done," she yelled out in surrender, unlocking the door." Don't blame me, Ryder was being unnecessarily difficult" She explained as the door flew open. "For a child that is only a month old today, he seems to be doing a lot" I murmured, grabbing her free hand that wasn't holding her child and Pulling her with me."He can get really stubborn at times" "You are his mother, you should know what he wants and not use him to give excuses" I reprimanded feeling my hormones kicking in, fucking last trimester."Easier said than done, after all this isn't a particular someone's first pregnancy" S
