S3-Chapter 168

Author: Maria Anita
Rita’s POV

Those police officers almost found Manuela. Lucky me! Actually, lucky Calvin who found out about it in time. Now I needed to figure out how to deal with this money and company situation. But did Cam really manage to prevent me from getting my hands on Manuela's inheritance? He didn't show me any papers, it could all be lies. Could it? And there's something else - he wanted to negotiate the little rat's freedom with me. Maybe I can use this to my advantage. I'm going after that idiot.

"MOM! MOM!" Julian burst into the house screaming. "Ah, there you are!"

"Stop yelling, boy! What do you want?" What got into this kid to come in screaming like that?

"Mom, I went to Calvin's house, I went to tell him he's my father. But he said he's not my father. So, Mom, you owe me explanations. I want to know, and no lies, who is my father?" Julian asked angrily, approaching me.

"I told you not to go after him. I warned you!" But it wasn't possible that this kid was going to start bothering m

  • Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch   S3-Chapter 177

    Manuela’s POVDiscovering the whole truth about my family and myself was liberating—it changed me forever. I was no longer the frightened little rat, as Rita used to call me. I had transformed into a colorful butterfly emerging from its cocoon.Learning about my real mother gave me a sense of belonging and even deservingness of what I had—and I was not talking about money. I was talking about the love and people around me, the loving and kind family that protected me my entire life. But at the same time, it shocked me to see the level of evil someone could reach. Rita's plan was something so horrible, so frightening, and she did it all solely for money, purely out of greed.Flavian kept insisting I should rest, but I didn't want to. I felt full of energy and wanted to do several things as quickly as possible. One of them was meeting Teresa, that mother who lost her daughter in such a cruel way but never gave up on her, even when no one believed that child existed."Little one? Are you

    Manuela’s POVAfter another day and all possible tests, I was discharged from the hospital. There was no serious damage that required my hospitalization, but I needed to rest until I recovered. The doctors said that the drug Rita had given me was already out of my system, but I might still feel strange for a few more days, which was normal. Then, Flavian took me from the hospital to Cam's house.Our friends returned to Paradise Port after I woke up. Alexander told me not to worry since Catherine would replace me for a few days. PH called me, and I had to console and calm him down because he was blaming himself for what happened. I was sure he would have another crying fit when he saw me. But until then, no one had told me anything.When we arrived at Cam's house, there was a reception for me. My father, brother, and sister-in-law were waiting with colorful banners and balloons to welcome me. Olivia had prepared a delicious lunch, and after eating, I refused to go to bed, wanting to sta

    Flavian’s POVI left the police station and went straight to the hospital in the same city. When I arrived, the girls were chatting excitedly and making plans. Catherine was telling stories about the quadruplets' adventures while they were being cared for by their grandparents."Oh, you're back already, Flavian?!" Melissa seemed disappointed by my arrival. She was finishing painting Manu's nails, who, from what I could see, had not yet woken up."What are you doing, crazy?" I asked, and she smiled."Painting Little Key's nails. After everything she's been through, she needed a fresh coat." Melissa sprayed something on Manu's nails as she spoke."Looks good," I agreed. "Girls, I appreciate it, but you can go now. As you can see and smell, I took a shower.""Now that's my handsome and fresh-smelling brother!" Lexie stood up and hugged me. I hugged her back and kissed the top of her head."But we're having so much fun!" Catherine complained."This is the most adult thing I've done since b

    Flavian’s POVManu has been in this hospital bed for two days now, two long days sleeping. According to the doctors, Rita injected Manu with a very strong medication typically used in hospitals for inducing sedation. From what they told me, she barely escaped a fatal overdose. But I'm still not relieved; I won't be at ease until my little one opens her eyes again."Flavian, you need to rest. You've been in this hospital for two days and haven't left this room even for coffee. Come to my house for a while; I'll stay with Manu," Olivia entered the room once again, trying to convince me to leave the hospital."Thanks, Olivia, but I won't leave my little one. I'm only leaving this hospital with her," I said for the tenth time just this morning, as there had been a parade of people trying the same thing."But when she's able to leave the hospital, you'll be sick!" Rick came in just in time to hear what I was saying. Our friends entered behind them."He's right, detective. Come on, at least

    Flavian’s POVDetective Roger cursed and pressed the gun against my head."Why do this, Detective Albert? Huh? We're both from this area, we know how things work around here," Detective Roger tried to reason with Albert."Roger, put that gun down. This ends here. I don't know where you think you live, but where I come from, things aren't solved with privileges and turning a blind eye. You sold your soul to the devil and enjoyed privileges here for quite a while, now you'll pay the price for it," Albert responded."Maybe so, but I'm taking this piece of shit to hell with me, because if it weren't for him, my life would still be peaceful like it always was," Roger threatened and pressed the gun barrel harder against my head."You won't do that, Roger. Because if you do, you'll only make things worse for yourself," Albert tried to negotiate.From the corner of my eye, I saw Breno moving slowly across the room. I knew what he was going to do and had to stay alert."Worse than it already is

    Flavian’s POVWhile Rick was driving madly back to the city, I grabbed my phone to call Detective Albert, but my phone had died and I hadn't noticed. Cam lent me his phone, and fortunately, he had saved Albert's number in his contacts."Albert, this is Flavian," I said as soon as he answered."Flavian, I'm glad you called. I couldn't reach you. We know where Manuela is, we're on our way," Albert informed me."Great! That's exactly why I called. We'll meet at the notary's office then." I was about to hang up when I heard Albert's question."What notary's office? Flavian, we're heading to the ravine. Manuela is hidden in a house there," Albert explained."Who gave you that information?" I found it suspicious."One of the city police officers. He came to me and said the detective is helping Calvin, but he didn't agree with it. He gave me the information and is even accompanying us. By the way, your friends are with us too.""No, Albert, Manuela is at the city notary's office. That Calvin
