Chapter 179

Penulis: Maria Anita
Alexander’s POV

The night before, I'd received a message from Detective Bonfim informing me that Johnson had not yet been found, that we needed to be on the alert, and that as soon as I could, I should get in touch with him. But I was with Catherine and let it go at that moment. However, this morning, I had already taken some precautionary measures.

I asked Daniel to send a team of six men of absolute trust to my apartment, instructed to secure my family. It didn't take long, and the men Daniel sent arrived, and he assured me that he had checked their backgrounds again and made sure of how they were hired.

I introduced the security guards to everyone and asked them not to leave with Peter. I asked Catherine not to go out without taking three of the men accompanying her, and she agreed without arguing. I went to the company to solve some things, and there I would meet the guys. When I arrived at the company, I called Detective Bonfim, who answered quickly.

    Cam’s POVIt had been three days since Olivia and I had returned to our city, and I still hadn't found time to go to that storage facility to see what that woman who died had kept there. I needed to find time for this, but it was difficult, mainly because my father had his mind on the divorce, since the hearing had been scheduled and Rita showed up here making a scene when they wouldn't let her in, following my orders. And my father was temporarily living with me, as I had convinced him not to go to the farm and to move only after getting rid of Rita.However, I wasn't focusing on work either, as my mind was on all this investigation business and I was very worried about my sister."You know what, as Oli says, let's make it happen," I said to myself as I decided to check out The Box.I called my secretary and asked her to reschedule all my appointments, which she did quickly. I cleared all pending matters from my desk and told Oli to wait for me as we would go to that storage facility.

    Flavian’s POVManu was sleeping so peacefully that I thought it better not to wake her. Day was already breaking when we went to bed. But I had too much on my mind and couldn't get any sleep. I walked into the kitchen and found Cam and Olivia talking in whispers."Look, Oli, at the dark circles under this man's eyes," Cam laughed when he saw me."Yeah, Cam, your sister is wearing me out," I joked, and the smile died on his lips."Spare me the sordid details!" Cam complained, pretending to be irritated. "At least you two weren't too noisy tonight." I couldn't help but laugh, remembering little one's effort to keep quiet."Where's Manu?" Olivia handed me a coffee mug."Sleeping. She's a bit tired." I smiled at Cam, who huffed."Good, because we need to talk," Olivia seemed worried."What is it?" I asked."My mother called me. Her housekeeper is friends with Calvin's housekeeper - Calvin is the father of that fiancé Rita keeps trying to push on Manu," Olivia explained, and I nodded, follo

    Flavian’s POVThe night was fun, but my mind was racing with everything that had happened in the past week, and that didn't go unnoticed by my little one."What's bothering my detective so much?" Manu asked after closing the bedroom door and pushing me into the armchair."Lexie and Rick," I sighed, giving the lamest excuse ever."They're just friends. And there's no way you're actually worried about that." Manu sat on my lap and looked me in the eyes."They're inseparable, little one. Rick is getting divorced, and I don't want Lexie crying in corners over heartbreak," I explained."Flavian, let your sister live her life. Or do you plan to keep controlling her like your mother was doing?" Manu was spot-on, seeing the situation very objectively."Yeah, you're right," I ran my hand across her delicate face, and she closed her eyes. "Are you tired?""No, I still have one thing to do today," I looked at her curiously."And what would that be?""Just stay still there." Manu looked at me misc

    Flavian’s POVThe girls came back from the SPA very excited and determined - they wanted to go out. As always, Melissa was leading the troops and had already decided everything. We went to the Social Club. We hadn't been there in a long time, and Alexander, Catherine, Henry, and Samantha joined us."Who's going to start?" Melissa suddenly spoke after dinner. We were in a private room at the Social Club, and she had already told us about the wonderful vacation she had taken with Prince Fred."Start what, crazy?" Alexander looked at her without understanding."To update me. I was away for quite a while, my vacation was divine and I've already shared it with you. Now I want to know everything that happened while I was gone, and most importantly, where are Patrick and Virginia?" Melissa was quite a character, but she cared about her friends."You're not the only one who wants to know about that, Mel. I'm curious too. By the way, I missed you," Henry also didn't know about Patrick yet."I k

    Flavian’s POVWhen we arrived home from the hospital, no one was there, just a note from Lexie saying they had gone out and would be late. After a shower, my little one showed me several times that she was the woman of my life and the only one I should run to. Not that I had any doubts about that - I never did - but I loved it when she took the initiative and dominated me like that."Why are you smiling, big guy?" Manu came out of the closet and caught me with that huge smile while sitting in the bedroom armchair."Because I can't wipe this smile off my face. It's like you glued it here." I pulled her onto my lap and kissed her."Don't start, we have visitors." She laughed."You didn't remember that tonight. Are you sure you want to leave the room?" I ran my hand over her breast and she shivered."Yes, let's go. It's already late." She quickly got off my lap.When we reached the dining table, there were three people looking at us grumpily, but Cam was the most sullen of all."Hey guys,

    Manuela’s POVTime passed slowly while I was sitting on that couch in Sabrina's hospital room. Flavian was quiet beside me, but his father was going out of his way to be attentive to me. He even went to the hospital cafeteria and came back with sandwiches and coffee, saying we should eat. The more he tried to be kind, the more I compared him to my mother and realized that money could change how people saw me. The more I thought about it, the less I wanted that inheritance."Hmm... oh... Fla-Flavian..." Sabrina stirred in bed, appearing uncomfortable.Flavian looked at me as if he was walking on eggshells. I just nodded, indicating that he should approach her. He let go of my hand, stood up apprehensively, and walked to the bed."I'm here, Sabrina," he said as he approached, but didn't touch her."You came." From where I sat, I could see her smile and her hand extended for him to hold."I came, Sabrina, because you left me no choice," he responded coldly."Darling, don't talk to me like

    Flavian’s POVAfter the manager gave me all the information about Sabrina and which hospital she had been taken to, I hung up the phone without saying a word. This would all be a huge mess."What's wrong, Flavian? Any problem with Manu?" Cam, seeing my haunted expression, immediately worried about his sister."No," I stammered. "I just hope this doesn't cause problems with Manu." I thought for a moment before speaking. "My unstable ex-wife took a large number of pills with alcohol, was taken unconscious to the hospital, and left a note asking them to call me.""That's terrible!" Cam commented. "What are you going to do?""I need to go to the hospital, Cam. Despite everything, I was married to this crazy woman. I'll ask my father to notify her parents to come, but until they arrive, it wouldn't be right to leave her alone, don't you think?" I looked at him seeking approval."I think you should talk to Manu first." Olivia was right, I couldn't just rush to the hospital without talking to

    Flavian’s POVCam was sitting across from me, mouth agape. Next to him, Olivia wasn't even breathing. I felt apprehensive. He handed me the paper, and I looked at it, unable to believe what I was seeing."Positive? What do you mean positive? No, Manu can't be that woman's daughter!" I could hardly believe that Manu had that monster for a mother.When Cam started telling me about his suspicions, at first it seemed too fantastic, but then everything started making sense. I had in my hands a DNA test confirming that Manu was the daughter of that monster Rita."It can't be, Flavian, it can't be, Manu can't be that snake Rita's daughter. Manu looks just like my mother, Flavian, you saw the photo." Cam was crying. He was on the verge of despair, and I was also in disbelief.Olivia got up and went to the counter, returning minutes later with the laboratory supervisor. He sat down beside us and explained that the test was reliable and there was no chance of error. But Cam was inconsolable. He

    Cam’s POVAfter breakfast, we left Manu and Flavian's sister at the office. Manu was extremely worried and wouldn't calm down. Fear was visible in her eyes, and I understood her - throughout her life, my sister had been punished enough by that woman who called herself her mother."Flavian, I'm really worried about my sister. She's scared," I told Flavian on our way to the hotel where we would meet his father."Yeah." Flavian took a deep breath. "I'll be honest with you; I want to kill that woman. Manu told me she used to whip her. Man, that's horrible in so many ways." Flavian's eyes were blazing. I remembered my own reaction when I found out."The only reason I didn't do anything to her was because Manu begged me not to, since she is her mother. HA... mother, yeah right! I'm certain, Flavian, this DNA test will come back negative." I was quite anxious about the results we would get in the afternoon."I hope so! If that's the case, I'll destroy that woman if she comes near Manu again."
