Floor seven did not make a sound as the couple gazed at each other. Jackson's eyes were red with hurt when he looked at Jennie and the baby in her hands. "Is he Leon's son?" He said in tears and anguish. "Hubby, I can explain. I swear this is not how I wanted you to find out. I tried so hard to get the words out and tell you the truth, but I couldn't dare to break your heart." Jennie cried. Now Jackson understands why Leon protected this mansion so profoundly and why he saw so many nannies inside the villa when he entered. It was the reality that the son his wife had with Leon resides in this mansion. "Babe, please give me a chance to explain. It was a mistake. I didn't intend to hurt you this way." Jennie said with so much ache in her voice that the words could hardly come out clearly. "This is not true. Jennie, I beg you in the name of God to tell me this is not real. Tell me y

Julie rushed through the JVC hospital door and entered the lobby. The ubiquitous aroma of antiseptic fills the air hole in her nostrils as she inhales to catch her breath and the smell reminded her of the nurse room when she was in high school. "Madam, can you please move from in our way."  Julie heard a deep man's voice behind her, and she turned her head to see who was speaking. "Oh, I am so sorry," Julie said.  She then stepped out of their path, and the nurses were able to carry the elderly lady on the stretcher past her. Julie's heart felt sorry for the lady, seeing the pitiful state she was in. Julie gazed around, trying to figure out what to do next. She could have dialed Steven up, but since she first spoke to him on the phone, he had not been answering any of her calls afterward. Her sight rested on the receptionist, and Julie rushed over t

The cold December breeze hit Steven's face as he sat in the back seat with Julie. Joe gazed at the V-mirror and saw how tightly his boss held unto Julie's hand, and he knew this was the hardest thing Steven had gone through since his mother's death. Although Joe started working with Steven after his boss had established himself, he had heard tales about Steven's past, and he understood just how much Jackson meant to his boss. None of them had said a word to the next person since Joe picked them up from the hospital. Steven kept gazing through the window, but Julie knew that the beauty of nature was not what her boyfriend had on his mind.  Finally, they were at Steven's home. Joe drove the car into the garage. Steven got out of the vehicle and walked ahead, and Julie quickly followed after him. When she reached Steven, he had already unlocked the front door. A few minutes later, Julie and her boyfriend were in his ro

Chris returned from the bathroom and saw Rose waiting for him as she sat on the bench quietly. She felt his presence and looked up. Chris could see the worry and hurt in her every gaze. "Any news?" He asked as he sat down. "Not yet," Rose replied. At that moment, the operating room door opened, and doctor Daniel came out. He wore a smile on his face, and when Rose saw his joyful expression, she felt a glance of hope. "Doctor, please tell me something good." Rose cried. Dr. Daniel held on to her hands and smiled. He then nodded his head as a sign of yes. "All his surgeries were successful, and we are taking him to the intensive care unit. But his chance of survival is now seventy-thirty. We can allow only one person at a time to see him since his condition is still unstable." Dr. Daniel explained. Rose turned to Chris, and he could see the

The next day, Chloe woke up feeling bluer than she was yesterday. Steven had not been answering her calls, and Chloe wanted to know why. However, what she really wanted to know was the identity of the lady who was with Steven in his car the night of her dinner with Matt, and Steven avoiding her calls just made her more anxious about everything. It took Chloe days to gain enough nerve to determine on visiting Steven again, and today she decided to talk to him face to face. Within a few minutes, Chloe was ready. She headed downstairs and took a seat at the dining table without saying a word to her family. It was not an issue since Mr. Wanton was still mad at Chloe for wanting to get back with Steven, Mrs. Wanton did not say much to her daughter these days since her husband had not let go of his anger, Fefe was still acting like a brat, and Chloe did not want to have anything to do with any of them. Bre
