Melvin sipped her glass of water calmly as she looked at the man.โI should be the one asking you what is happening here. Is this the kind of people that you allow in this place? I am very disappointed in you people. You need to improve and I strongly suggest that something like this shouldnโt repeat itselfโ Melvin said looking impatient.โYes maโam, I understand.โ the manager mumbled.โExcuse me, manager. I am the one who called you. I want you to drive them out immediately or you will face the consequences. I donโt want to ever see them in this place and all the outlets related to this establishment. โVivian said with an evil smile on her face.โMiss Cross, if there is a misunderstanding, I am sure that we will sort it out satisfactory. why donโt we all sit down and try to figure out something for all of us? โthe man suggested and Vivian got even angry.โI know the owner and I am going to call her so that she can fire you. I am sure that she will appreciate someone who will take ca
Even though she had once mentioned her family, Susan didnโt think that they were this wealthy.โDonโt you stare at me like that. I am not a person who brags to others about what I have. I was raised differently to that nut caseโ Melvin stated as she stood upโ Let us go to the sand beach, I have been busy lately and I need to sun bathe a little โShe suggested. Susan was still dumfounded. Melvin was so mysterious. There were so many things that were not adding up on her. She saw her kill the men who attacked her the day that she gave birth to Happy. She looked experienced more like she had been on the special forces or something similar.She had built a very complex and complicated hospital in the East city and yet she said that she gave it to the community. Then again, she now own this multibillion property. What was she hiding from her?Anyway, what she was. It didnโt matter to her. She had shown her genuine friendship and she wouldnโt allow herself to doubt her.โSusan, donโt be sl
Susan quickly grabbed Melvinโs arms โYou are scaring us. Are you really the mafia Queen.?โโNoโฆ.. you are so unbelievable. That was just a figure of speech. Come on, I remembered that I have to take care of something a little bit. I will meet you guys in a while. Just relax and ease your minds, okay.โ Melvin said and then hurriedly climbed the stairs.When she reached her office, she was breathing heavily. She was thinking about how she was going to save this situation. She picked up her phone and dialed her assistant number โHow is he doing?โ โDoctor, I was about to call you about the good news. The patient woke up about 30 minutes ago. She keeps on calling Susanโs name. What should I do?โHe really was still in love with Susan after everything? why does love have to be this complicated? Someone seems cold and ruthless but deep inside he is just like everyone else, yearning to be lovedMelvin breathed with a sigh of relief. At least, the asshole woke up right on time. He has got a
Ethan laughed โAre you going to take me for a fool? Why would I search this place when I know that you can take me to him? Let me remind you that I have been tracking Mark without his knowledge ever since we became enemies and my tracker led me to your hospital. Pleaseโฆ let us not play this game anymore.โโOhโฆ. God. what am I going to do now? Melvin was still thinking when her phone rang. It gave her the distraction that she needed not knowing that she will be dealing with even worser news. The caller ID showed that it was Susan and she wondered what she wanted. She just dropped them at the house not long ago.โIt is Susan, I will pick it upโโHello., Susie. How is Happy doing? โMel asked lazily. However, Susan started crying over the phone. She couldnโt even speak clearly. Melvin sensed that there was trouble. โCalm down and tell me what is going on. I will try my best to come over there as soon as possible โโMel, my baby โฆ...Oh โฆ.my God โฆnot my baby.โ That was all that she said a
โThanks โฆI love you. I will have to leave now. I want to remind you to trust only me. Whatever you will see and hear just know that it will be for the benefit of Happy. You, Happy and Joy are my family, donโt ever forget that. โAt that time, she didnโt understand what he meant and honestly it didnโt matterโI understand, please take care โSusan said and Ethan looked at Letty and Melvin.โI will take my leave now. Melvin, we still have a pending conversation and I hope we can close this matter the soonest as possible. It is very important.โโOff course. The patient that your assistant brought to me is doing well. I heard that he came out of his coma yesterday. Isnโt that good news? You are such a good employer and I admire your thoughtfulness. Donโt worry, I will update you on his condition when you have time.โ Mel replied with a neutral expression not to arouse any suspicion.Ethan thought โwhat a clever woman? Always playing her cards well.โEthan went back home and found Vivian sea
That night, he just sat on his desk doing nothing but thinking. Nowadays he didnโt even care about his company. He was so consumed about his personal life that it wouldnโt let him breathe.By the time he went to sleep, it was already 4.00AM in the morning. Sleep was a luxury for him at the moment and so he took only an hour to rest his body. He had to hit the road as early as possible.On his way to the East city, he called Melvin and she picked up immediately. knowing what Ethan was capable of, she wouldnโt dare ignore him.โHello โฆ.โ She answeredโMake an excuse and meet me at the hospital. If you donโt come in the next 2 hours, I will wreak havoc everything in the hospital โHe said impatiently and didnโt even give her time to reply. He simply disconnected the call.โThe same old threat โMelvin smiled sarcastically.At that time, Melvin was siting beside Markโs bed. He still looked pale but he was slowly recovering from the internal organs injury he suffered almost a month ago.
โWho are they talking about?โ Letty asked.โShโฆ.shโฆ.ssh โฆ. how am I supposed to know, Letty? Ethan has always been mysterious and I think the same towards Melvin. She has a good and kind heart but I have never understood some aspects about her life.Ethan walked in to the room. The heels of his shoes echoed on the floor. He saw the man, Mark was lying there on the bed looking powerless but he will never feel pity for him.At that point, he didnโt care about him . All that he wanted was to get over with this and get back his baby girl.โHelloโฆ..Mark? It seems that I am not the only one who finds you disgusting. who beat you up like this? โ Ethan sneered as he looked at his face full of scars and then continued โ I must thank that person because you are an idiot .โโCut to the chase, Ethan. As you can see, I donโt look so well. I might faint and go in to a coma again. So, watch your next words carefully. We donโt like each other and whoever beat me is none of my business. What do yo
โI will do this and more. I know that Vivian will never hurt my baby. She will never get on your bad side so I am completely sure that we will find him safe and sound. Even if it hurts me every second and minute that I am not with her but I have this Chance to get back Joy and I will do it.โSusie, you want to go with this man. Do I need to remind you what he did to you?โ Melvin asked.โI will never forget what he put me through and that is something that one day we will have to square it out. โSusan insisted and Ethan looked at her softly.This woman was full of love. How did she even fall in love with a devil like him? He used to think that he didnโt deserve good things in life. Ever since she appeared ,there has only been light in his life.โSusie is right, let her be โLetty chimed in as Susan went back in to the roomโKindly make the video and send it to your father ASAP. I will do Whatever that you want and I mean absolutely anything โSusan looked at the man with hate.Mark laug
โI love you โEthan said as he kissed her passionately on the lips.โI love you moreโ Susan replied as they turned to the crowd while smiling with charm. It was unexpected wedding yet colorful. with the close family members available, they didnโt need any more witnesses for their love. It was just perfect the way it was.โBaby brother, you finally made it. We are so happy for you โDamian said with excitement in his eyes. โToday we wonโt prank you or try to leech off of you but we have a surprise for the two of you โhe added with seriousness on his face.โOhโฆ..please have you ever done anything for me without expecting payment . I am warning you, I am not in the mood for your craziness. I donโt want to be grumpy on my wedding night โhe commented and Susan blushed.โYes โฆDevil king. We have been planning this for so long because we knew that you will end up with her. She is so beautiful and goodhearted. We have learned a lot from her and every day we are trying to be good people. โDami
Ethan sneered as he looked at her coldly. โI warned you to stay out of my life and to stop bothering me. Do you think that you can control my life as if I was a robot? I never liked you in anyway. Susan was and will be my dream woman until the day that I die.โ Ethan added.โOhโฆ..You are so predictable, darling . All along I knew where you had taken them. Forgive me for fooling you but they are safe and the person getting married for real today is my sweet baby girl, Susan. I have to return to her everything that I deprived of her including the man that she loves. โโSusan, the real wedding is about to start. come out, darling โAriel said and Susan appeared in to the hall with Serena and Gordon holding her hands.โMother, you bought her my dream wedding dress?โ Vivian was so startled. she couldnโt believe her eyesโWhy not? it canโt compensate for the years that I neglected her but I wouldnโt have hesitated to give you one if only you would have avoided trouble โAriel said as she st
That was when Susan turned to Ethanโ Please watch over Happy and do not dare let Mark come near him. โ she said and hugged her mother one last time.โ It was good to be in your arms, mommy. I hope that you wonโt fail me and my sister in the future โShe said as she turned her back and went out with Melvin.They went straight to the address that they were given. Vivian sent someone to take them to undisclosed location. She knew that she had to be careful.โTie yourself with the ropeโ Vivian instructed when they finally met with her.โVivian, since we are here, you can go ahead and release the baby โMelvin said coldly.โShut up idiot. Just because you are here doesnโt mean that I have to release that little useless brat. She is of no use to me. She couldnโt even help me get back Ethan or even his wealth. I needed her to be a boy instead of a pitiful l weak girl. Why should I bother myself with her? Now that I have the two of you, it is my perfect time. The plan has changed.โWhat are you
โWell โฆ. I will send the address. I want them to come alone. Just the two of them because they are not meant to be your daughters. I am the only one who should be yours. โShe said and disconnected the phone.Melvin held her motherโs hands gently. She could see that she was in panic. The only thing that she could think about was that this was her family now and their problems were hers now. She would make any sacrifices for them no matter what.โMommy, I heard everything and I will gladly go. We are the ones that she has a problem with and I think that we should not let our little Joy pay for it.โโMelvin, you canโt go, I canโt lose you again, sweet sister. Please stay, I will find a way to get my daughter back โEthan said as he pulled her in to a hug.Melvin closed her eyes and said โDonโt be too clingy. Donโt you know that we are both evil and we always find our ways out of situations like this? If Vivian wants me then I will go. โShe pinched his cheeks and smiled โseriously, this is
Susan smiled and kissed his lips tenderly โYeah โฆyou have a way of calming me down. I love you.โThat night, Melvin couldnโt sleep. She just wanted to talk to her mother. She wanted to confide in her and experience how it felt like.There has been so much burden that she has been holding on her shoulder and she needed to let them go. She had promised the love of her life on his last breath that she will try and be happy.โWe will sleep together the way that we should have done when you were a baby. I swear that I will make up for everything that you missed in your life โAriel said as she brushed her hair softly.โYou know, mother. I grew up in a loving family but I had a hollow feeling in my heart that I couldnโt explain. When I couldnโt take it anymore, I joined the special forces and was deployed on the border. I was trained as doctor and I did my work very well until that fateful day.โShe hesitated and then with smile on her face she said โthen I met the love of my life there. He
โNot so fast, you guys found our sister and you didnโt even think of telling us?โ Damian glanced at the people before proceeding towards Melvin.โI have always wished for a doctor in our family so that she can treat Ethan. Sometimes, I think that he is crazy for real โDevin saidโAnyway, I am joking. I will carry my sister in to the car. โDevin added with smile.โI will drive them to wherever they are going and I will be their cook for the night โDamian offered.Celia smiled as she looked at her twins. They were a pain in the ass but sometimes they were sensible. At least they were making a good humor out of the difficult situation.โDarlings, I am so proud of you โCelia sent them flying kisses as they made their way out of the hospital with Melvin.Ariel left but she knew that she still had one mission left. She will come back for Susan. she was sorry that today, she only had time for Melvin. Soon, she believed that the three of them will be together as one family. Finally, she had
Susan moved forward with tears in her eyes โWelcome to the family, sweetie. we met for a reason and I am glad that you came my way. From today onwards, I will be the one to protect you. โSusan said while avoiding her motherโs gaze.Then it was Ethanโs turnโ Even though, I loved you before, now I will adore you as my sweet sister. we could use a female sibling in the family to keep us boys in checks. Remember that you can always count on me. Our family might be a dysfunctional one but we have always taken care of each other.โMelvin didnโt say anything as Evans too stepped forward and gave her a hugโ I hope you will forgive me one day. I know I wronged you but I still love you despite all the things that I have done against you. You are still my little sweet girl.โโDear, I am not your mother and I do not support what they did, but I will always be there for you when you need me?โ Celia said and then Serena addedโ You are my niece who I didnโt know existed. Always count on me. I will l
โI accept that I was always a mischief growing up but I also suffered. It isnโt easy to live with the guilt of having killed someone that you loved. All these bad things that I did in the past was because I didnโt know myself. I was lost and confused all because of you, Evans Griffins. Can you give me back my life ? I lost my wife and child in the midst of all this. I have nothing just because of you โMark chimed in looking distressed.โSon, the most important thing is that the truth has come out. So, you can start over your life and change for the better. I know that I havenโt been a good father either but I love you than you can ever imagineโ Leonardo said with a relief in his eyes.โI was never a bad person. I only changed after people judged me for something that I didnโt do. I felt that I was really a bad person. So, I became what you intended on me to be ?โ Mark said and then turned to Ethan.โYou were supposed to be my friend and yet you turned your back on me. I told you man
Melvin pouted her mouth like a little spoiled brat.โIt couldnโt wait until I come back home?โ She asked as she opened the door and ran into her fatherโs warm embrace โDid you get lost along the way?โ she asked as Ethan eyes widened in surprise to see Melvin hugging Charles Oliver warmly.Now it made sense why he felt so strange around Melvin. She was indeed Miranda. If that was the case, what the hell happened back then? who died and who was buried?While he was still staring at a daze Gordon, Serena and Ariel entered in to the house. It seemed that Ariel have been crying and she didnโt look too good.โDamn you people, I hate you all. Why didnโt you tell me that my daughter was still alive? I have been waiting days and night to finally apologize to her. were you waiting for her to die for real so that you can tell me? My God, she almost died the other day and I wasnโt even there to protect her, Serena. You couldnโt even tell me that she had already given birth to my grandson. Why?โ
