Tristan rise from his seat and received the call a little further from the table where he and Terence was seated. He return to his seat with tale tell signs of tears in his eyes."Why are you doing this?" He asked with emotionally."Are you forgetting something Mighty Tristan?" Terence said bitterly."Just to remind you, my parents was devastated when my sister killed herself because of you," He added"I'm sorry if she cannot stand being rejected.""It is not only the rejection. It was the way it was handled added with the humiliation. In front of the people. She was reduced to being a love sick fool, an love obsessive slut, that she resort to drugs to numb the pain." The hate and the anger in his eyes are palpaple, that Tristan didn't recalled that he had treated his anyone that way."Look Terence we were just kids then. I don't recall treating her that way." He defended."Maybe you are not aware but those women, your women bashed her on social media reducing her to a laughing st
"This is not gonna be the end of it all Tristan! I'll see you in hell!" Terence yelled as the police lead him out of the place in handcuffs.Tristan ignored him as he answered the next phone call. "I'll be there."Earlier after the doctor checked on Nicole. Emma called Terence to allow her to accompany the doctor to get some medicine. The guards didn't have to check on the doctor. He is trusted by Terence. He assigned a guard to stand outside the room to prevent Nicole to escape. The car left the gates of Terence heavily guarded home. The driver is one of Terence guard . He is assigned to fetch and drive the doctor back to his clinic. Even though the physician is trusted he is unaware of the location of the place because he is blindfolded during the drive back and forth. A few kilometers away when the road is empty with no other passing vehicles, Emma hold the drivers neck and injected a syringe filled with a solution that succumb the man into unconsciousness instantly
Nicole was happily reunited with her children. After she was rescued, she underwent a series of procedures, debriefing, interrogation and she also checked by the doctor for health issues. Emma showed up later and asked for an apology for drugging her to make it appear that she is very sick. It was her way to show Terence how sick Nicole is, and make it credible. She was given an antidote to counteract the reaction after Terence left for his meeting with Tristan.Looking Back she still get the goosebumps of how she was able to escape the clutches of Terence Black"s men. If it not for Emma's help she wont be able to make it. So there's no way she that she will deny her apology.Flashback:"Emma they are getting closer!" Nicole is panicking at the closeness of the cars that are chasing them. While Emma is maneuvering the speed of the car. She tried to calm Nicole. But when bullets are raining on them. She had to make a decision."Take the wheel Nicole!""What? Okay!" Nicole was sur
"Eeeehhh.... Tristan!" She can't help but shout with fright when she the person she hit, her husband sprawling on the floor half naked."Why did you hit me?" He said agonizingly touching his head."I... I thought you are an intruder. Why did you sneak out on me?" She said angrily masking her guilty feeling."I didn't didn't want to disturbed you. The doctor said you need to rest for sometime. I never imagine this is the kind of welcome I will received.""I'm sorry I would have done that if I knew it was you!" She defensively apologized."Apology accepted. Now come on and show your husband a proper welcome." Grinning mischievously."Are you forgetting our last meeting?" She asked."Oh come on Sweetheart! I have tried to explain it that what you saw is differen from what you were thinking." He said frustratedly." You can't blame me for thinking that way since you stopped updating with us, as what you have promised before you left. Then I suddenly caught my faithful husband in in the
"Why don't you want to reveal you identity to her Athena." Jonathan asked while Jacob and Tristan is in a meeting with Athena and Jonathan. After the successful rescue operation than Athena and her group carry out."It's better this way, I am dead to her. For her safety and her children." She replied."I don't think that I could keep that a secret to her once she begin to ask questions." Tristan said."If you want your family to be safe, then you must protect this secret." Athena said."But don't you think she has the right to know?" Jonathan asked her once more."Jon, please I don't want to go and have this discussion all over again! And please stop going behind my back and make that decision without telling me." She was referring to the time when Jonathan kidnapped Nicole to reveal that Athena is alive. It was that time that she is between life and death situation. That he decided to end his daughter's longing for her only daughter. That is Nicole.Athena survive that ordeal and th
"With Terence? Who knows. He is so obsessed with his own kind of revenge, we don't know what's going on with that crazy mind of his." Tristan replied finally." You know? Now that it's over I just can't help but thinking that he is up to a bigger things." She commented."Maybe he got smitten by your beauty that he got those crazy ideas." He tried to dismiss the topic. But deep inside he suspects the reason behind why Terence is interested with Nicole. The next day they were surprised to learn of the news that Terence has been released out of prison."Who could have help him Honey? Does this mean we are not safe? I thought we have a strong case against him."Nicole asked anxiously." He is a rich man Sweetheart I think one of his friends have paid the bail for him to get out." He declared. "But I thought you said we have a very strong case against him?" She insisted."That's true, but money talks Sweetheart.""Then, is there something we can do to bring him to justice?" She worried
"Congratulations Mrs. Hewitt, it's positive your six weeks on the way." The doctor confirmed."Are you sure, Doc?" Nicole dissapointedly asked. There was a subtle exchange of meaningful glances between the doctor and Helen. As soon as Nicole confided in her on her condition, she immediately travel to Santa Elena to be with her granddaughter."Well, It's seems you don't trust the results Mrs. Hewitt. You can ask for a second opinion." The doctor act like she was offended."I...I didn't mean it that way Doc. I was just confused with the time.""Any way, It's alright there will be no problem if it is not accurate this time, we will be able to calculate the due date of the baby later on." The doctor said."But grandma..." She began. "It's okay dear." Helen cut her out she seems to agree with what the doctor said.On the way home, Nicole voiced out her worries to her grandmother "Grandma I'm afraid that Tristan will suspect that the child is not his, base on the time we were together.
Against to what they had agreed, Nicole seeks Emma secretly she followed Ginger's suggestion. Ginger in her own had begin to have doubts about Helen Hayes but she doesn't want to plant a seed of doubt on her ward's head. Especially now that she in in a lot of pressure and much more it might affect her emotional stability and the baby in her womb.Nicole had gather that Emma is connected with a security agency. She visited the agency's office. But she had difficulty in meeting her. She tried to act as a client but she was directed to speak with their boss. That time Athena and Jonathan were in the office to speak with heir prospective clients.'We have a new client having an appointment to see you but she wants Emma to take her case." The secretary briefted them. " Her? It's a woman? This might be another case of a jealous wife. Did you make it clear that we seldom handle that kind of cases. Emma doesn't accept that kind of work." Athena reminded."Miss Hayes knows, she said her
"Aren't you surprised to see me?" Helen baffled when she doesn't obtained the reaction she is anticipating when Anna saw her.Anna for her part tried not to show any reaction from seeing Helen who look exactly like her."Why don't you speak! Do you think I'm your doppelganger?" Helen irritably raise her voice for not getting a response. But still Anna just look through her as if not seeing her at all."Dolores!" She called the woman looking after Anna."Yes Ma'am. You want something?" "Did you drugged this woman?" "No Ma'am! You had a strict order not to do that anymore." The woman breathlessly replied."Then why is she standing there like a dumb woman staring as if I'm not here and not hearing me speak?" Helen said annoyingly."I don't know we have been talking yesterday when she woke up. But after that she had been that way ever since..""And what have you been feeding information to her." She suspected that Anna is affected by whatever she learn about their situation."Nothi
Anna woke up from a long and tiring sleep. She felt so weak and wondered why she is feeling tired when she just wake up."Anthony, Anthony honey where are you?" She felt panic when she clearly saw her strange surrounding. That's when she recalled the moment before their car crash against the concrete barriers along the road.Anthony and Anna was traveling within the speed limit required. But there was an incoming car who counter flowed to their lane. That's when Anthony discovered that the brakes are not working. He tried to avoid a head on collision and turn the steering wheel towards the barriers."Honey what is happening!" Anna asked her husband in panic."Braced yourself Anna, the brakes are not working!" Then a loud crash was heard. When she opened her eyes, she saw her husband bloodied face she felt his pulse he is still alive. But nausea hits her she then felt everything turn dark. But she can still feel that she is being pulled from the car, she heard voices from people sw
"What do you think, Athena?"Jonathan asked Athena, he is sure that Nicole's observation with regards to the personality changes of Annatalia George are not of coincidence or simply cause by oblivion."I don't know Jon, but if her observation were true. Then I guess that woman is not what she say she is." Athena have her own suspicion about Helen. She wasn't able to get to know her mother-in-law personally but the pictures she saw before shows her that. Helen of the present looks like the one in the pictures.But one that baffles her is why she only resurfaced after the death of Joshua. Truly if she is indeed the true Helen Hayes. She would have let her presence felt knowing that the things she was accused of were untrue."You know Jon, maybe it's about time we look deeper into the dissapearance of Helen Hayes.""Where are we going to start?" Jonathan asked."I have an idea. We need the help of Tristan." She replied."Why do you need those files Athena?" Tristan asked. He got hold o

They decided to catch up with each other over a cup of coffee."It's good see you too Anna. Me and the kids are doing well. Tristan too he's busy at work. How about you ? How is Anthony he's not with you?" She asked casually so as not to intimidate Anna as if she knew nothing about Anthony's complain about her."Sorry we weren't able to attend the christening of your baby girl." She apologized but Nicole noticed the way she talk but she didn't put a weight on it. "Anthony is not with me I came alone." She replied."That's a pity the twins are missing their uncle Tony. You know how much he dotes on them." Anna smiled but there was a subtle expression of displeasure on her face that didn't escape Nicole. There must something going on with the couple, which she felt she must not pry except when she would be confided with."What brought you to Santa Elena, Anna. New busin
"Who is Annatalia George?" Bianca asked her mother is a very manipulative and vindictive person. Annatalia must have unintentionally cross her mother, or she is a wealthy person that Helen's attention was caught. " She is close to Nicole's family. She is rich and a very impressionable person. Easy to manipulate.plus she has a very very lovable husband.""Mom how could you? Is husband stealing is one of your achievement these days?"

While she was brought to hiding under a different identity for her own protection.Her mother Jesicca Blackburn became Rosanna Alano.

She is baffled she had witness the affection of the couple that it's hard to believe that any disagreement will separate them."I don't think so?" He replied."Then why?""That is the hardest thing to answer and I also cannot understand why?" Nicole raise her brows inquiring at the same time confused.. " Anthony said that they both met an accident , as they were always traveling together. That was before the christening.""So that's the reason why they weren't able to attend the invite. But why didn't they notify us?""Because Anthony was in coma. When he woke up from unconsciousness. His wife is missing and haven't visited him while he is confined . When he was discharged he search for her, he even notified the police. They search other places including clinics hospitals even nearby places where the accid
"Helen is not actually your grandmother." Tristan revealed."Tristan!" Jacob reacted "What? What do you mean? If she's not my grandmother then who is she. Why did she have to pose as my grandmother. The pictures... I can't believe it.""You heard me right sweetheart. She is not related to you.""How did you know it? You're not pulling my leg Tristan? This is not funny." She warned."You're right this is not a child's play. How did I know it? Let me tell you a story." He said after shaking his head in denial with her accusation."Tristan, son this is not the right time." Jacob advice."Grandpa, I might as well enlightened her. Because I have been carrying this in my chest for so long that it bothers me. Besides my love I think that you should know the truth to avoid being betrayed once more." He turn to Nicole after replying to his grandfather."Then enlightened me..." She challenged but a bit intrigued to what Tristan has to say."Helen is not your grandmother. At least not the Hele
"You mean to say that you decided to drop all charges against that woman, just so you could have enough evidence to nail my grandmother to imprisoned her?" She is indignant that Tristan will attempt to make a move behind her back."Sweetheart, it's not that I single out Helen. But in the long run you will learn why I'm doing it.""Then tell me now! Don't keep me in suspense." Her anger has not yet dose off."Nikki my dear, there is just things that we thought that you are not ready to know.

"Are you sure about it grandma?" Helen and Terence were discussing some procedures she is willing to undergo."Of course! It's not that I haven't done it before." She replied enthusiastically."Grandma you have done it too many times I'm afraid that there will come a time that me myself won't be able to recognize you. There is still be a consideration if you will be able to pull out your new identity."Don't you worry about me. I am a good actress , remember? Just keep that woman hidden and don't let her escape until I will be successful in my mission. Besides if I have to change my appearance, to avoid being caught, it should be put into good use. Just remember all of the things I do is for your sake." She told Terence."After the surgery, Helen Hayes will be a memory only to the people who are closely related to her. Ha ha ha ha! And a new chapter is about to begin. I welcome myself back to the lives of Nicole and her children."Their evil laugher mingled together creating an
