CHAPTER 56: THE COST OF PRIDE
Amanda drove home with shaky hands as she imagined the mess she had created. All sorts of scenarios run through her mind as she considered the magnitude of this problem. She had a throbbing headache and she was feeling light headed. It was time for her medication but she couldn’t take it until she had a meal. However, Amanda was in no condition to eat or even think clearly. She was so scared of how Don would react to the situation.as she drove down the driveway of the Garcia household, Amanda wished she could turn back time. She should have been content with building a relationship with her son, instead of being obsessed with giving him an inheritance. She would never have imagined that he was much wealthier than she was and he. Too bad that she couldn’t protect him from the other criminal elements in the world. Amanda walked into the house wobbling a bit. She needed to sit down but she couldn’t stop until she talked to Don. She aske

Jessica's Love Triangle CHAPTER 59:GOOD PETE
Pete had a very long day after listening to Jess and William chatting like old friends. To the best of his knowledge, Jess and William had not been in touch since he saw them chatting at her father’s burial. In the past, he had never had such worries because he had always made sure that he did not form any attachments. Ella had been his first girlfriend and she had broken his trust in women completely. After that, he used women and paid them off as though they were retail objects. However, everything was different with Jess. It wasn’t just because she was attractive or smart. Not even her old washed up clothes could have been enough to hide her beauty. He had wanted to kiss her even when she was just wearing flat shoes and a maid’s uniform. It wasn’t her intelligence either. He loved her witty conversation enough but it was more than that. It was her genuineness. She did not care whether she was talking to the ric
Jessica's Love Triangle CHAPTER 60: WHERE IS TODD?
Ever since baby Beaver had been born, he had turned the Scott residence into his throne. Everyone was at his beck and call and he was only unattended when he was asleep. He had noticed how he would get attention with a single cry, and he capitalized on it. He managed to wrap everyone around his cute chubby fingers with his sweet smile and warmness when he was held and given the attention he demanded. The workers in the house were always willing and ready to take care of him and Leslie was not as overwhelmed as most new mums. However, she was still recovering from the pregnancy and childbirth, so she occasionally experienced periods of loneliness. This Saturday was one of those days. Jess had come over to visit her and she had found her curled up in bed with the baby sleeping next to heray“Hi,” Jess whispered.“Hey. Come in

“What do you mean Todd is dead? You promised me that you let him live,” Jess cried in dismay.“After I left him alone, several members of the other gang got to him. He didn’t leave town fast enough and they finished him,” Pete said. He knew he had to lie in order to maintain his relationship with Jess. Besides, she had no way of verifying the truth.“ What I’m I going to tell Leslie?” Jess asked with tears rolling down her face.“There is nothing to tell. Just stick to the story I told her,” Pete said as he took Jess into his arms to comfort her.“When did you find out?” Jess asked as she lay her head on Pete’s chest.“When
Jessica's Love Triangle CHAPTER 62: HE LOVES ME HE LOVES ME NOT
Sunday morning was one of Jess’s favorite times. She often woke up and cooked pancakes, waffles or made any simple breakfast while in the company of Pete. They then ate leisurely in the apartment and ordered food for lunch as they made plans for the week. Part of this time was spent making love in various styles and any part of the house, because neither of them wanted to go anywhere on Sundays. However, today did not feel like an ordinary Sunday. First of all, neither Pete nor Jess were in the mood to wake up early. Jess had spent the night tossing and turning, and she had only gotten some sleep when the sun was rising. On the other hand, Pete had come back home late. He had been very drunk and was not willing to talk about the meeting with his mother. Each had been tormented by their own demons. Pete was disappointed that his mother was always choosing other people over him, while Jess was feeling guilty over Todd’s death.

They had also been talking regularly on the phone and sharing a lot of private jokes. Jess was feeling happy because things were going well and William was glad to take things slow. Jess had been battling with herself on whether she should tell Leslie about William. She wanted to share her mixed feelings with someone who would understand her without judging her. But she also wanted someone who could give her sound advice without making her feel more guilty. However, the situation with Todd was always at the back of her mind an

The Garcia mansion was a beautiful architectural wonder. Passersby often stopped and took photos of the grand house that sat in the middle of the beautifully landscaped gardens. The majority of people were envious of the occupants of this fine property. They often imagined what it would be like to be surrounded by this level of luxury and enjoy all the benefits of such wealth. Little did they know that inside this house was a miserable man wishing that he could be anywhere else but here. Donald Garcia had been in the house alone for close to two weeks now.
