At Jackson's Villa.
Peter had already gone back to inform his family of the sudden news and the fact that Amanda knew everything.
"What did you just say? Amanda knew everything?" Juliana asked in disbelief.
She could not accept the fact that she will not have the chance to humiliate Amanda and her mother.
"Yes. She confessed to me that she knew everything and she is the one who informed grandma Catherine causing her to faint from the shock.
We do not even know when she will wake up. And now the family does not want to hear anything concerning the engagement." Peter Jackson said.
"Vallery, it is a risky time now. Now that grandma knows everything, we don't know what she will do once she wakes up. You need to stay close to Jason and keep him company. We cannot lose this connection."
"Yes dad. Don't worry. I will call Jason and I will go to the hospital later."

After Amanda and her mother were done having
"Brother Jase...." Both of them turned around to look, and what greeted their eyes was a delicate figure dressed in a long brown dress. She looked very delicate and had an innocent expression on her face. Who else could it be if not Vallery Jackson. Seeing the person approaching, Jason's eyes turned warm and gentle like a spring breeze. The coldness from before disappeared without a trace. "Sister you are here too. I did not know. I could have brought some super for you too. I only came with enough for one person." Val said the moment she stopped beside them. She looked at Amanda and then at Jason and wondered what the two were talking about and how long they have been talking to each other. When she saw her brother Jase looking at Amanda with that gaze, she was filled with hate and jealous and just wanted to rip that bitch apart. But in front of Jason, she had to maintain her innocent image. "Why are you he
"Sister, what are you talking about? Although I was hurt when I heard the news but I already forgave you. After all not many people are as blind as me and I did not see how good you two looked together. It was my ignorance for thinking that I deserve Jason and that we should be together but seeing the two of you together makes me realize many things that I had ignored before." Amanda said innocently. She glanced from the corner of her eyes and saw that Jason's expression was filled with guilty before she continued. "You know what sister, I really love Jason with all my heart and I'm willing to do anything for him. So how could you think that I want to do something bad to him when I can't even bear to see him frown. Even if it kills me I will continue to support him in whatever decision he makes. He decided that you are the best for him. Yes I love him but I can't prevent him from loving whoever he want. He can have as many girl friends as he want but I will sti
"Grandma how are you feeling?" Amanda asked the moment she entered the room. "I'm feeling much better." Grandma answered in a weak voice. "It is good that you are feeling better. I was worried and feeling guilty all day because it was me who caused you to end up in the hospital. I'm sorry." "Don't be. It was not your fault. I did not expect that Jason could do something so shameful and even everyone in the family would support him." "Sorry grandma. I thought that you knew too that is why I was shocked when you reminded me that it was my engagement day. I too had only found out recently and was still recovering from the shock." "I don't even want to see that scoundrel. How could he do this to you after all that you have been together?" Grandma was so furious that she started coughing profusely. Amanda was shocked as she hurriedly poured her a cup of warm water. "Grandma calm down. You have just been out of su
The next morning, Amanda woke up early and prepared herself to go to the set.The shooting had been delayed because of the second female lead so it was set to begin as soon they found a suitable actress.She had spent the night in the hospital with her mom. After waking up, she went to buy breakfast for her mother and herself too.It was a good thing that there was a restaurant near the hospital so she did not need to waste a lot of time trying to find one.After buying what she needed, she went back to the hospital.Since her mother was still sleeping, Amanda did not want to wake her up, so she just ate her breakfast silently before leaving after giving her mother a peck on the cheek.***Amanda took the subway directly to the filming location.To her luck, the filming location was not far away from the hospital so it only took her thirty minutes on the road.It was also good taking the subway because she was n
It was a tough day for Amanda. After they were done filming, she felt like her whole body was being tone apart. She felt like she had just been given a good beating and her whole body was aching. She dragged her tired body to the dressing room to change into her own clothes. On her way to the changing room, many crew members greeted her and congratulated her on her good acting. "Miss Amanda you did great today. Where did you learn your acting. It felt as if your character has come to life." One of the crew said. "It felt so surreal. Your cold and domineering attitude. You almost overpowered the male lead. I think you should quit acting and become a major general." Another one added jokingly. Hearing that, Amanda was amused and she could not control herself from laughing out loud. "Thank you guys. But you won't believe me when I tell you that it is my first time acting. I have not even studied in any art school. I think th
Evelyne looked at her daughter and then at Richard and wondered if these two already knew each other. She had a contemplative look in her eyes as she observed the two. "Auntie, about your condition I will talk to doctor Martin and see what can be done. It will be even better if the surgery will be scheduled early on before your condition worsened." "You don't have to worry about that. Amanda is working really hard and I will have the surgery once she gets paid." As she said so, she looked at her daughter with pity. It was her responsibility as a mother to give her daughter a good life. But here she was lying in a hospital bed while her daughter faced the cruel world on her own. She really failed as a mother. But once she gets better she will make up for it. They will face the challenges together and her daughter will never suffer again. "You do not have to worry about the bill. I will take care of it. And you cannot ref
She was really a stubborn girl but he loved it. "I know I'm handsome and no woman can resist my charm. I won't be surprised if you fell in love with me. In fact I will gladly accept you." Amanda was angry that she almost stomped her feet. She did not know what came over her just a moment ago. She had to admit that this man was really handsome and very charming but she cannot be attracted to him. The good the looks were the more dangerous it was for her to dive in. Moreover looks are very deceiving and she cannot fall for this man. "Yes you are very handsome sir and every woman would not resist your charm. But I'm different from every woman. I don't fall for such little tricks. How many women have you deceived with your looks untill you took them to your bed?" Amanda asked sarcastically. By now she had already calmed her frantic heart down. "There is none." Richard answered subconsciously. Amanda sudd
Amanda did not know what to do. Since this man was so adamant on helping them, she will just accept his help and deal with the rest later. And he was right. The more she delayed her mom's surgery, the more dangerous her condition became. She could wish to see her mother get well soon because she did not want to spend a lot of time in the hospital. "Thank you doctor Martin for the trouble. I will inform my mother once she wakes up about the surgery." Amanda said. "There is no trouble. It is my work." Doctor Martin waved his hand. "Then I will see you the day after tomorrow." Amanda said. "Then I will be taking my leave. Please take care of yourself." Doctor Martin said as he turned around to leave. He had just reached the door when Amanda called him from behind. "Execuse doctor Martin, before you leave, is there anything we need to take note of before the surgery?" Amanda asked. "Not really. Just make sure that she
