She hugged him tightly and kissed the top of his head lovingly and said "Everything will be alright" Derrick nodded and stayed in Ivy's embrace for a while before freeing himself and walking to his mother's room.

Lily has just returned to Brenda's apartment after having a good time with Derrick. She was about to go to her room when she noticed Brenda's room light was on and decided to say good night but ended up hearing something shocking. Lily staggered backwards. "Aunty Abigail killed my mum," she said faintly, almost like a whisper and dropped to the ground. "Lily!, Lily?" Brenda called out her name as she pulled her into her embrace. She slapped her face a few times but no response. She picked up her phone and called the ambulance. Soon Lily was in the emergency. Brenda was just pacing up and down the hall. "No, no, this can't be happening. This is not how things were supposed to happen. I hope they don't find out," She thought as she paced up and down the waiting area. She also kept running to any doctor or nurse that came out of the emergency room.

Upon opening the door, the first thing he saw was the news on the TV. He recognized the apartment immediately. "That is Brenda's apartment. This means Lily is also there," He thought to himself. He placed the coffee on the table and, taking a glance at Mrs Mingle, who was lying peacefully on the bed with her eyes closed, went out of the ward pulling his phone out of his pocket. He made a call to his assistant and asked him to get the car ready. He went straight to the doctor's office and requested his wife be discharged.

Derrick left Mexico very angry, broken and sad. All he could remember was Lily kissing another man. "What has his mum got to do with this? Lily has never met his mum, so what was she saying? What nonsense was that?" Derrick thought. "No, she just found someone else. Whatever she said was pure nonsense" He thought. He remembered their kiss. He could tell she loved him as much as he loved her. He could not understand why she pushed him back. "I am so stupid, she has another man. How can I forget she was in another man's arms? She kissed him right in front of me." He said angrily. He was pacing up and down his office and had emptied 2 full bottles of wine already. He closed his eyes and fell onto the sofa. Marcus walked in. Derrick looked at him and smiled. Marcus looked at Derrick who was looking miserable. He helped him to the car and took him to the villa. Ivy was there and saw Marcus bringing in drunk Derrick. She hurried and helped Marcus take Derrick to his room. Marcus left t

On his way out he heard some officers talking "Is that the famous lawyer Luis from Mexico?" one officer asked, and another replied "Yes, it is. I just don't know why he wants to handle this case all of a sudden," another officer passed a comment "Did you guys ever think for once this lady may be innocent after all?" one officer replied "What do you mean, aside from the polygraph which she passed all the evidence points to her" replied another officer "Shut it guys and get back to work.
