After getting the call from Stefan, Dorothy decided to fly back to Los Angeles to see her mother. She had so many mixed feelings about this. All this time, she never really knew what it felt like to grow up without a mother’s care. She believed hers had died a long time ago… but life has a way of throwing the unexpected at you.“Breathe,” Chole said softly, noticing Dorothy having some kind of nervous breakdown on their way to LA.“I don’t know, Chole… she’s been through quite a lot. What if she’s not happy to see me? I mean, I’m the reason she—”“Bah, bah, bah.” Chole hushed her quickly. “We’ve agreed not to say things like that anymore. Everything happened because it happened. None of it was your fault.”Dorothy pressed her lips together and nodded.“None of it was my fault,” she repeated, almost as if reminding herself. She had been saying this anytime she felt bad about herself during her time in Barbados, and it really helped.“You have arrived at your destination,” the pilot ann
After the incident, a few days had passed. Clarissa was not just arrested — it was discovered she had mental health issues, and she was taken to a psychiatrist. She would receive full punishment as soon as she got better.As for Lorenzo, the police uncovered many evil businesses he had been running underground. They decided it was best to execute him. They also discovered he worked with Tasha and Tristan, which led to their arrest as well.The search for Dorothy’s mother was still ongoing. Many of Lorenzo’s men who had been captured by the police were being interrogated to make them talk.Meanwhile, as for Dorothy — after everything that had happened, she wasn’t herself and wasn’t feeling well. She’d been on medication, with Stefan and Harrison keeping a close eye on her.“Good news, Stefan. The baby is doing okay, and she’s finally in good shape. Just make sure she’s not overworked or stressing herself. If she needs anything, provide it immediately,” Harrison advised.“Thank you,” St
Beatrice hugged the kids tightly as they returned.“It’s okay, don’t be afraid. You’re safe now. No one is going to hurt you anymore. They won’t find you here. Your dad has gone to get the bad man arrested,” she said gently, trying to calm them.They gave the children ice cream to help ease the trauma.After the kids fell asleep, Beatrice sat down with Chole and Kristin. “Stefan and Levi are there alone. Somehow their plan got messed up, and they couldn’t go through with it without help. I’m really scared for them,” she said, her worry etched all over her face.She had been part of their lives when they were broken because of the same man who now had them.“You know what’s worse? Dorothy is there with them. My poor girl—she’s going to be so scared,” Chole mumbled, her voice trembling with sympathy.“I know they didn’t want to get the police involved, but shouldn’t we do it behind their backs?” Kristin suggested.“But we don’t know where they are,” Beatrice said.“Griffin, who brought
