Ruth despite all that was happening in her family has seen some things that she needed answers to. First, Chantel's relationship with Mrs Hayford and Nick's complete change in attitude. She knew him as a loving and caring person and the sudden change in character has something to do with what happened at the promo which she has no memory of but, who is he? How did he land all these riches?This made Ruth start an investigation, Nick had noticed her sudden large expenses, but seeing the locations of withdrawal he didn't care. For him trapping her in an abusive marriage is enough punishment. Ruth is determined to find the truth to all these questions on her mind. It will help get her life back and it will help fix everything. Maybe she will discover who is behind their misfortune. When she closed from work, she went to the house to see her mother and left for the motel to meet with a man, who had told her he had the information she wanted. "Come in," Ruth said upon hearing the knock
When he returned to the bedroom, Ruth was already gone. "I need to understand what happened last night," he thought staring at the empty bed. He got ready and left the apartment for work. Mrs Brown was relaxing in the garden as she admires the environment. As the days pass by, her health gets better except for her leg which has refused to heal. She thought she would put the walking aid down at some point but it didn't look like that was not going to happen.Ruth has been busy trying to understand what was happening but she still made time to check up on her. At Mrs Hayford's apartment, Chantel was still waiting patiently for Ruth to call with news of Mrs Brown's eye issue but that appears to be taking forever. She had changed the medication several times to get the results she wanted but for some reason even though Ruth assured her of using the medication, nothing was happening. On the balcony with her friends, Chantel was having fun chatting away with her boyfriend sitting next t
"No, I think Ruth came here the last time. I wanted a way to confirm and your feedback now confirms she knows you are not a house help," Mrs Hayford announced making Chantel raise an eyebrow "She was here? When?" Chantel asked surprised "A couple of days ago. You remember when you suggested I get a security guy to be at the gate?" She reminded and Chantel thought for a while and recalled the day"Yeah, I remember," she replied"Yep, that day, she was here," she repeated"So what are we going to do," Chantel asked "Don't worry sweetheart, I have my ways," she said and the side of her lips curled upBack at Cassandra's Ruth and Mrs Brown were leaving for Nick's apartment. "So visit again soon," Cassandra said as she walked them to the roadside to hail a taxi."We will," Ruth replied and Mrs Brown smiled taking slow steps with the aid of her walking stick Ruth stopped a taxi and she and Mrs Brown got inside after hugging Cassandra goodbye.They both sat in the back seat of the taxi a
"Mum, why do you have your signature on a surrogacy contract?" Ruth asked and Mrs Brown jumped out of the bed"What are you talking about?" she asked avoiding her gaze"Mum," she called and sat on the edge of the bed looking at the back of her mother's head"I recently found out, Chantel has been lying to us. When the unexpected happened and you and your dad's account miraculously ran out of money, we all tried to raise money for your care because you were both in the hospital," she narrated and her mother listened silently but with her back facing her"Chantel helped me with getting employment at the restaurant where I work now and she found for herself a job as a house help at Mrs Hayford's home," she continued "Guess what I found out?" she asked her mother"She is not a house help and the apartment had not opened vacancy in a long while now. I asked Chantel and she lied to me. Meanwhile, I have seen her heartily chatting with her supposed new employer Mrs Hayford," she narrated"So
"I am sorry. I could not handle parting from you. I discovered later I was having twins. I could have given one child out but I was scared of getting arrested for breach of contract and my husband didn't know," she explained crying "Wow!" Ruth sat holding her head in her hand ignoring her mother as she pleaded for her forgiveness."So Mrs Hayford, our landlady is my real mother by blood?" she asked Mrs Brown turning slightly to look at her"Yes but I didn't know she was our landlady until the day she visited our home," she replied "Wait, so you didn't know?" Ruth asked surprised and she shook her head in a no"Wow! Wow!" Ruth repeated standing up to her feet."Ruth it doesn't change anything. You are still my beautiful girl," she said dragging herself to the edge is the bed"Mum, it changes everything. You may have carried us for nine months and raised us as your own but we are not your children," Ruth said sternly but her eyes were filled with tears'I am so sorry my sweety," she p
Ruth found out the truth about her birth from Mrs Brown and she became upset with her for taking her away from her true parents. She left home and ended up in her usual hideout, the motel unaware Mrs Brown had followed her out.In the motel, she found the rest of the story but she was forced to stay in the motel because of the rain. Mrs Brown was out in the rain, standing In front of someone's shop to shield herself from the rain while back in Nick's apartment, he was in bed with Katherine. It rained all through the night till the early hours of Sunday morning. She opened her eyes and stared at the window. She got up from the bed and sat briefly on the bed with her feet on the ground and her head resting in her palms. "Gosh, my head," she complained to herself She got up and went to the washroom, took a shower and put on the clothes she was wearing the previous day. She exited the motel and hailed a taxi back to Nick's apartment. Upon arriving and recalling what she had walked int
Ruth packed things she felt they will need and she could carry and she put them into a bag and close it. She looked at Nick's card and dropped it on the table with a note. And exited the apartment with her mother. At the gate, she hailed a taxi and went to her motel with her mother. "I know I don't have the right to call you daughter because of what I did but it will be too expensive to leave her. Why don't we go back to the place my friend gave us?" she suggested Ruth stood there for a while and thought about what Mrs Brown just said "We will go there tomorrow. For now, let me get you something to eat," she said and ordered some food. The The food arrived a few minutes after and they both ate. She could tell from Mrs Brown's face she wanted to ask something but she kept mute. Ruth was also not in the mood to talk after what happened in Nick's room. They ate their food in silence and Ruth step out asking her mother not to go anywhere. She asked her to call her if she needs anythi
"If she is, then our debt is paid," she repeated the words in deep thought.She arrived at their apartment and went straight to the bedroom, ignoring her mother who was sitting in the living room, waiting for her.Mrs Brown got up with the help of her walking aid and also entered the bedroom. She found Ruth lying on the bed still in her work clothes. She sighed and drew closer to her and also sat on the bed after shutting the door."How did it go with Mrs Hayford?" she asked and Ruth opened her eyes and lay on her back staring at the roof"Not too good. There was something about her statement which made me feel she was behind our misfortune," she replied Mrs Brown lowered her head and breathed heavily making Ruth turn to look at her"You remember the day we were leaving the apartment and I rather ended up in the hospital?" she asked "Yes, what about it?" Ruth asked "My fall on the stairs and the loosing of my tongue was no accident," she said and Ruth quickly sat up on the bed"Mrs
