Lincoln is glaring at the cell phone on his desk. It belonged to Charlotte and when she died, Daniel had given it to him. Lincoln had thought that he’d want him to destroy it but Daniel only said one thing.“Use it well,” he had advised.At first, Lincoln wasn’t sure of what to do but now he knows how to use it. The police haven’t found her phone and Robert diverted the investigation away from it so they’re assuming it’s been destroyed.He can hear Halsey’s footsteps in the next room. She’s usually hovering around the police station all day and night but must have come home to change.Lincoln gets up and heads for her room only to find her packing a bag.“Where are you going?” He demands.“I’m moving back to my old house,” she mutters.Lincoln stares at her in shock. “Are you insane?” He scowls at her. “That place is a dump!”“I don’t care but I can’t live here anymore!” Halsey states. “Charlotte is gone and this place reminds me of her.”She’s about to walk out of the door but Lincol

Daniel rushes to the hospital and storms through the fifth floor where he finds Lincoln. Lincoln is shell shocked, his shirt stained with Halsey’s blood. “Linc, what happened?” Daniel demands. A while ago, he received a call from Lincoln. He was distraught and incoherent but Daniel could make out that it was related to Halsey. “I-I…” Lincoln looks at him with teary eyes. “Halsey knows! She knows that we killed mom-” “Shhhhh!” Daniel hisses, frantically looking around if they’ve been heard. “Let’s go to my office!” He drags his son to his office and locks the door behind him. “Tell me,” he demands. Lincoln slowly recaps how he forced Halsey to break up with Nathan, how he accidentally told her that Daniel is involved in Charlotte’s murder and in the ensuing struggle, Halsey was hurt. “I brought her to the hospital but she was bleeding so much!” Lincoln cries. “Dad, I can’t lose her! Please save her-” “Are you insane?” Daniel scolds him. “If she survives, she’ll expose us!” B
Lincoln is sitting next to Halsey’s bed, staring at her still body. It’s been over a month and she still hasn’t woken up. The doctors keep telling him that she might wake up but they don’t know when that’ll happen. They’re regularly monitoring the condition of her baby and so far, it’s been growing well in spite of Halsey’s condition.“Have you decided yet?”He slowly turns around to find Daniel standing there.“Are you going to medical school or not?” Daniel asks.“I dunno…”Lincoln can’t think of anything else. Halsey is his only priority now. After everything he did, he can’t let her go.Nathan has been locked up for good. The prosecutors told them that the judge sent him off to prison for a long time. Daniel is relieved to hear that. One less burden for him to think about. Lincoln wants to have the baby aborted, the last remaining reminder of Nathan but Daniel won’t allow that.“Why can’t we abort this child?” He demands.“We can’t do so because it’s illegal!” Daniel reasons. Linc
A nurse enters Halsey’s ward to check her charts. She’s about to check Halsey’s pulse when she notices that the white bedsheet is quickly turning crimson. Halsey’s pants are also stained with blood, the blood flow rapidly increasing.The nurse is shocked and instantly pages the doctor.“The patient in ward 514 is bleeding heavily!” The nurse states through the pager. “Her blood pressure is increasing and her breathing is shallow. Her water may have broken. She’s in labor!”Within minutes, Halsey is wheeled into the delivery room. Lincoln rushed to the hospital as soon as he heard, followed by Daniel.“How is she?” Lincoln demands one of the nurses.“She lost a lot of blood!” The nurse tells him. “We’ve contacted the blood bank. They’ll bring in the blood bags. Please excuse me now.”She quickly rushes towards the surgery room, leaving Lincoln devastated. He slumps on a chair, crying. Daniel grasps his shoulder but keeps an eye on the surgery room. He wants to take that child away as q
Daniel is at a loss on what to do. Not only did they lose the baby but Debra was also taken. “Who the f*ck did this?” He snarls.It’s been over a week and they still couldn’t find a trace of them. Daniel suspected that Nathan might be behind it but he called the jail authorities who told them that Nathan is still incarcerated and in critical condition at the moment. There was a fight and he’s been injured so badly that his face is unrecognizable at that point. In fact, he may even die.Daniel isn’t bothered by it. If Nathan dies, it’ll be good for him but the question still remains: Who took the baby and Debra?“Is it Michell?” He mutters. It’s possible. But how did Michell find out about the baby? That’s impossible!The door to his office flings open and Lincoln barges in.“What’s the news?” he demands. “Did you find them?”“The police tried but couldn’t find them!” Daniel says in a bitter tone.Lincoln curses out loud. “I’m sure it’s Nathan!” He claims. “He did this!”“The jail aut
Soulful piano music is playing throughout the lavish mansion. A crowd of people are chatting away, while drinking and enjoying the cool spring evening. They’re all dressed in formal wear; men in dark suits while women in elegant gowns. The party has been one of the most anticipated parties of the year. It’s as if everyone from the elite class of Bayers’ Coast has turned up there, eagerly waiting for the announcement.A half Italian man in his late fifties is watching the crowd from a distance. He’s sitting near the bar, sipping on his non-alcoholic margarita. Giovanni Salvez loathes to drink. He feels that drinking can make the mind useless. Besides, he’s not interested in the party. He’s more interested in the host.Finally, after a while, the town’s best Cardiologist, Daniel Jacobs takes the stage.“Ladies and gentlemen!” He greets them. “You all must be wondering why I’ve called this party tonight.”There’s a murmur and a lot of nodding among the crowd. Everyone is curious about t
Lincoln is running through the hospital corridors. He’s panting hard and hurrying towards ward 514. Daniel is on his tail, running after him.“Lincoln, listen to me!” Daniel calls but Lincoln is too preoccupied with fear. What if Halsey reveals the truth? Everything he worked for will be ruined!He bursts into the ward to find Halsey with the doctor. She’s lying on the bed and slowly turns to face him.“Lincoln?” She whispers. For a moment, Lincoln stands still, unable to say or do anything. Her blank eyes are staring at him for a while.Then her dry lips break into a small smile.“Lincoln…you came!” she softly exclaims. Doctor Matthews is also in the ward, looking worried. Lincoln is confused by Halsey’s smile. He glances at Doctor Matthews, wondering what’s going on.“Halsey, how are you feeling now?” Daniel asks. She stares at him in confusion.“Who are you?” She croaks. “I…”“Rest, my child,” Daniel says. “We’ll talk later. Lincoln, if you may follow me and Doctor Matthews.”Linco
