Granny's restaurant. Jared and his partners got to the scene but were unable to enter because the attacker had locked the door. Josie was surprised to see the restaurant woman being held in hostage from the glass door. "Aunt!" She shouted before turning to face Jared. "Team leader, please do something!"Jared got a speaker from Michelle and cleared his throat. "This is the police, take it easy and open the door." His voice echoed. Inside, the attacker got angry. "Who called the police?!" He requested. "I said who called the police?!" He shouted at the customers who were turning their face down. "Are you all deaf?!" He asked as he placed the knife on the restaurant woman's neck. "Please, don't kill me." She begged."Do something!" Josie pleaded. Just then, she noticed the other shop beside Granny's restaurant and remembered that their storeroom was linked but separated with just a thin sheet. Quickly, she rushed to find a way to enter. Jared gave the speaker to Eric to handle it w

Hernandez Group's InaugurationHernandez Group's inauguration ceremony was set to last for five days and a general celebration dinner with shareholders and stakeholders of the group was the last event scheduled to round up the ceremony. Roosevelt kitchen was asked to take care of the catering service for the first and last day while Maria's was asked to take care of the second to fourth day. On the first day, the whole employees of Roosevelt kitchen were extremely busy and no one was spared any duty. After serving the guests, Isabella and Rose went into the room they were given and crashed. "Ah!" Isabella exclaimed. "At first, I was jealous that Maria would be catering for three days while we get to do ours for two days, but I never thought the first day would require a lot of work.""We're done for!" Rose exclaimed. "I feel like dying! My legs hurt so much. I hardly rest for a minute before I'm being called again. I'm not going out of this room!""Hey, Rose, it's just the first day

Hernandez Group's dinner. Mason gathered his juniors together and stared at them for a few seconds before clearing his throat. "Listen well, this is the last day of Hernandez Group's inauguration ceremony. Nothing, I repeat, nothing must go wrong. This is a dinner involving all of Hernandez Group's major shareholders and stakeholders. Do a good job by behaving yourself! Josie, Isabella, Frederick, you're working with Ruby's team. Make sure there are no empty champagne glasses. Always check the guests and refill their glasses.""Yes, senior!" The three of them echoed. "The rest of you are joining Chris' team. They're in charge of the desserts. Make sure you do as you're told.""Yes, senior!""That will be all for now." He told them and was about leaving when he suddenly turned back. "And if I hear that anyone is missing again this time around. . ." He paused as he looked at them one by one. "I won't let it slide! I really won't!" He added and walked away. Isabella sighed. "It's a re

"I'm home!" Josie removed her shoes and arranged them beside the other shoes at the entrance of the house before stepping in. "Sister!" Drake Luth called happily as he rushed to meet her. She paused immediately she saw him. "Hey, Drake, what are you still doing here?!" She walked in and dropped her bag on the chair. "Mum! Mum!"Her mother came out with a tray. "You're here?""Mum, how many times do I have to tell you not to allow Drake stay here?""There's nothing wrong with that. He's still a small boy.""He's a small boy, but it's getting too frequent. Don't they get worried at his house? I mean how can they not be worried when their seven years old son is missing.""He's not missing. He's here.""Seriously, I don't understand his parent. Hey, Drake!!""Yes, sister.""What do you tell them at home when you leave?""Nothing. They don't know I leave the house.""See, see!" Josie exclaimed turning to her mother. "See? they don't know he sneaks out of the house. Drake, you'll get them

"She died," he replied to her.His reply hit Josie like a sharp pin in her chest. She was expecting something like 'she left' or 'I never got to see her again' or 'she travelled and forgot about me' or anything related to that, but she was totally not expecting something like death. "I'm. . . I'm sorry.""It's not your fault, so why are you apologizing?""I never thought it could be something like that. I'm sorry for asking. It must have been hard for you to tell me that.""No. It wasn't. I was unable to forgive myself when she died. Do you want to know why?""Why?""Because I could not fulfill my mother's dying wish. She asked me to protect her, but I couldn't. That time was the worst time for me and I regret every thing that happened." Closing his eyes repeatedly, he fought back the tears that formed in his eyes. "Enough about Annette" He told her, trying to smile. "Was there a time when you were young that you felt bad? Probably because of something that happened?""Actually, I. .
