TERRAVERDE, WILSON'S MANSON*

Roonie returned his gaze to his phone, staring at it like he's trying to remember something.

EUROPE CAPTIVITY*

The captives are currently filing out of their cells in a straight line with their hands on their heads.

The organ hunters are here!

Silver was the first to come out in the cell, followed by Pearl, then BJ.

They look wretched and tired...the beating they received two days ago still taking it's toll on them.

They were provided with new clothes to replace the shredded ones since the hunters prefer them clothed.

Pearl started shaking again as the hunters began checking them out line by line.

They're three men with potbellies, all so ugly.

They picked out about thirty captives already, and the thirty are already crying cos today is their doomsday.

Pearl held her breath when the chubbiest one got to her, giving her a lustful look all-over before smiling greedily.

"Turn around" he told her.

Pearl remained standing.

"Turn around" he repeated, and she reluctantly turned.

"This one should be my sèx wife, I'm buying her for myself" he said, spanking her @ss.

Pearl turned back to him, pushing him away immediately.

"Don't touch me!" She shifted back.

No man will touch her that way if it's not Roonie.

No fuçking man.

"This bîtch!" The man raised his hand on her...

"She's for me..." Richard's voice stopped the assault, and his hand went down as Richard got to them.

He's just coming in.

"I'll kill you, I'll kill you!!" Pearl shouted powerlessly, trying to get to him, but she was held back down by the guards so strongly that she could hardly breath.

Richard touched her right breàst, and she screamed out as tears streamed out of her eyes.

"Don't!..

Silver was about to intervene when Richard dropped his hand.

"Why don't we talk first?" He told the guards, and they led the way.

He went out with them and the organ hunters.

The selected captives were taken too, so the place became scanty as the rest returned to their cells.

"Here" BJ showed his hand, and the girls were shocked to see him with a phone.... Richard's phone.

"I took it unaware from his pocket" he said.

"Blowjob, are you sure you're not a thief before you were kidnapped?" Silver said suspiciously.

"Yo!" BJ winked.

Pearl quickly snatched the phone from him, entering the small bathroom.

The phone has just one percent battery, unfortunately.

She dialled the only number she knows offhand...

Roonie's.

She was impatient as she clicked the digits on emergency dialler, hoping he'll still be alive to pick like Silver said.

Or if he's alive, he should still be using the same number...

It began ringing, and she held her breath cos someone picked the call almost immediately.

"Hell..hello?... Xhen?" She stuttered breathlessly.

No reply came for one...

Two...

Three minutes...

"How did you know my middle name, and who the fûck are you?" Roonie's voice came, and tears of joy sprang out of her eyes.

He's alive!

TERRAVERDE, WILSON'S MANSION*

Since the slap incident between Tate and Adrian, they've not talked to each other.

They might be living in one house, but they're like strangers

Adrian hasn't stepped the company this month.

What's there to step when all staffs quitted already, and they're even owing the investors a huge amount of money.

Their cars are gone, and the only thing they have right now is this house over their heads

Adrian is currently in the living room, drinking excessively as he has been doing.

Tate is in her room, holding Pearl's childhood picture in her hand.

She's crying into it while hiccuping endlessly.

Her face is barely recognizable, it's like she aged suddenly and she looks sick .

There's another book on the bed like a diary.

She opened it and brought out two papers.

They're both results of DNA tests. She did it years ago immediately Pearl was born.

The first paper has Adrian Carson and Pearl on it, but it was stated in that one that their blood doesn't match.

Therefore... He's not the father of the child.

The second paper has Richard Wilson and Pearl Wilson on it, and it was stated clearly that their blood are a match.

Therefore... The child belongs to him.

Tate hugged the papers to her chest, the papers of her sin.

"I'm such a disgrace to motherhood... I'm a disgrace!!!!!...
