Christopher dropped his cutlery on the table while Lauren held her chest feeling breathless.
Dr. Turman took a vacation for he had a special surgery schedule at his hospital. Eve wasn't present either. She took a week off, she reasoned out a family emergency. It was only Christian left taking care of Albert aside from Samantha."Albert, of all the jokes you're gonna throw to your parents at a dining table, not that grandson thing! Do you want me to have a heart attack? Who will take care of our company if that happens?" he scolded his son right in an instant upon the latter told them about his five year old son's existence."Dad, I am telling the truth?" he insisted but even Lauren, she was still deciphering how could that happen.Christian was also flabbergasted gawking at all of them. What's happening again he thought. They always had a splendid dinner whether Eve and Dr. Turman were around or not."Why not ask the mother of my son?" he was becoming impatiIn a high-end restaurant in the heart of the city, two beautiful single moms were going to talk to clear a slate. They were both calm, grace, and dignified."You will always be my sister-in-law no matter what!" Liz sincerely told Samantha while the latter still felt embarrassed that she was one of those narrow-minded people who believed something was going on between them with her ex-husband."I'm sorry. I don't know what to say!" all she could say was this.But her actions spoke a lot of meaningful words she couldn't express in sentences."It's all right. It happens to people. And we are not exempted!" Liz just shook her head as she gave Samantha a genuine smile.Samantha left a light chuckle with her phrase and just like her, she also shook her head."Yeah! We are not exempted!" she repeated."So, when will you two get back together? Tristan is at his age to have a sibling. He's already almost ten!" she channeled their talks to another topic when they were done clearing things out."
"Albert is in Ireland now? Is that true?" Candice who had overseas photoshoots for months was surprised when Grace told her about what happened three months ago.She who never liked to watch nor read the news was really ignorant when it came to those current events but when it was all about fashion, she was number one!"Yes, Miss Candice. The hospital here transferred him to Houston Medical Hospital two weeks ago!" Grace sternly uttered."But why? The hospitals here are also good!" Candice still insisted on digging for more information about him."It was Dr. Houston's command!" Grace still casually replied though deep inside she would like to yell at her saying 'Stop wasting my time! Just fly to Ireland if you want!'"Okay, thanks for the info. Bye!" Candice told her in haste before she strode towards the lift.Inside the lift, she called her manager right away."Get me a ticket going to Ireland tonight. I need to see Albert!""Okay, right away!" her manager obeyed at once..After abo
"Sam, Isabella told me to come here to help you today and tomorrow. How's Young Master?" Laila was speaking to her as she opened the door while she strode to Albert's VIP Ward.However, she also halted in the middle and her exciting orbs went open as she saw who were Albert's visitors at that time.The four including Albert's doctor glanced in her direction and smiled. Laila would like to turn around and run away for a while but her flat shoes were nailed to the floor."Laila, right?" one of the doctors asked as he sauntered toward her.She just gawked at him. She couldn't believe she had just eaten her tongue. She flickered her eyes and tried to speak, but she staggered in her voice."Yes, dictor...I mean doc...tor...!" she shut her eyes for a moment while shaking her head. Then she composed herself and spoke again."Yes, Doctor Arnolds!" Laila finally uttered...without looking at him. Her eyes glanced around instead."Beautiful name...Like the owner!" Sean commented before he went ou
Earlier...When Albert saw the group of policemen about one kilometer away waiting for them, he did his best to draw Madeline's attention to something else while removing the cloth that was wrapped around his wrists."Why are you doing all of these? What happened to you?""What happened to me? It was you who made me this way. If you didn't cancel our wedding before, we're supposed to be husband and wife now, and maybe, we're supposed to have children now!" she yelled as her glare was burning his eyes."But you feel disgusted by me. Since that monster kidnapped me, you never talked to me again. You avoided me like I was a plague!" she kept on releasing everything that's been keeping her bottled up for too long."Then you suddenly fell in love with a servant? How dare you, Albert?" her fantasy was making her blind but Albert never really listened to her prattles."What's your plan on me now?" he asked as he sneered.Finally, he loosed the cloth. He sideglanced at Rona whose eyes were shu
"Grace, could you get me the reviewed documents from Houston Group? The one I approved yesterday!" Albert called Grace on his intercom but to his surprise, she didn't answer."Grace, the contract from Houston!" he repeated but still it was dead air."Maybe she went to the restroom!" he whispered as he walked out of his office to get the documents himself.But to his shock, he saw Grace lying unconsciously on the cold marbled floor. He was about to call 911 when somebody just hit him on his head. He irked in pain but he didn't lose his consciousness. As he turned around while holding his head that was hit, he squinted his eyes when he saw a sneering Katie appearance but he knew that was Madeline."You?" he exclaimed but even before he could push the alarm button, he received another hit that was stronger than the first. This time, he had lost his consciousness.Simon carried him back inside his office while Madeline followed. However, an employee who happened to pass by saw a glimpse of
She released an evil laugh while staring at the headline that bannered their glorious names:'Madeline Swan, Wanted! Lance Swan Captures!'She laughed at the authorities who always failed to arrest her.She laughed at Houston's men who were waiting for her arrival.Above all, she laughed at Albert and the Michaels for not sensing her closeness in their visibility."St*pid powerful people!" she aggravatingly snorted.She was holding a red wine while sitting on their usual white Italian leather couch.Where?In an originally breathtaking place that became a haunted house.Indeed, Lance helped her escape and fooled the authorities that she was going to Ireland. Her father prepared her hideout once again. But this time, no one would even think she went back to the city of opportunities, to that penthouse where two wanted criminals were killed more than two years ago. The one was killed by her."Miss Swan, they all thought you're in Ireland now!" Simon grinned.He was pouring Madeline a gla
