Sophie's POVI was still in the room when Jake suddenly rushed in. He looked angry and charged towards me. He grabbed me by my hair and dragged me towards the edge of the bed. I screaned in pain as his grip threatened to tear off my scalp.'Crazy bitch. So you had actually sent a voicemail to Coralline??' He asked angrily.Voicemail?? I suddenly remembered the voicemail I sent to her yesterday before I had that accident. So Coralline has listened to it? That is why he is this anxious.My pain stricken face suddenly morphed into a smirk. He seemed shock at my sudden change of expresssion and I smirked harder.'Good, they must be aware that you're alive. And now, you won't be able to do everything you want to do because they are unto you now.' I said laughing hysterically.'Shut up.' He said and his rough plan made a hard contact with my face.I felt the metallic taste of blood in my mouth but l didn't care.'You can hit me all you want but you know I'm telling the truth. The best thing

Coralline's POVI came home really late. By then, Victor and Monica were already asleep. I went into my room and met Damon on the bed typing on his laptop.With one glance, one could easily tell that he was annoyed. He smiled when he saw me. He dropped the laptop on the bed and walked towards me.'How was work today?' He asked.'Tiresome. Thankfully, today's Friday. I've missed spending quality time with you.' I said.He smiled and said'Me too.'I stared at his face worriedly. One can easily tell he was angry because he was doing a bad job of hiding his anger. I wonder what made him this annoyed? Anyway, I should let his anger cool off a little first before I ask him anything.'Have you eaten?' I asked.'Yes. What about you?' He asked.'I have. I had dinner with my fellow colleagues.' I explained.He nodded his head in understanding.'I better go and shower. I reek of sweat.' I joked trying to make him smile genuinely and it worked.His grim face morphed into a breath taking smile.'

Monica's POVI was shocked when I found out that Victor has been watching me all along. He was there when I added the contents of the veil into the tea.'Aunt Monica, what did you put inside the tea?' He asked curiously.I stared at him not knowing what to say.Wait, why am I scared?? He's just a kid. What can he do to me?? After all, I'll be leaving this house today. He won't even be able to tell on me.'It's nothing Victor.' I said.'But I just saw you adding something into the tea.' He argued.'It's just sugar. I wanted it to taste sweeter for you.' I said.'I thought mum said you shouldn't add sugar into my tea.' He said.Damn. This boy is just too stubborn like his father.'She did but l know you like sugary things so I just wanted to do it for you. Just for today.' I said trying to sound convincing.'Okay then.' He said and I sighed in relief.'But I'll have to ask mum first.' He said and I stared at him in horror.No no no. He can't.He was about to go into their room when I dr

She stared at me in shock after I was done with my explanation. I waited for her to say something or even be angry with me but she did nothing.She just stared at me and it was already getting uncomfortable for me because I was expecting a reaction from her.'Baby, say something.' I said after sometime but she didn't reply.'Anything.' I said again and she scoffed.'What do you expect me to say? Why didn't you tell me these before? If you had, we would have been able to avoid what happened this morning. And knowing Monica, she would be long gone. We don't even have a lead. The only lead we had poisoned our son and escaped. This is all you fault.' She said angrily.'Baby, now isn't the right time to start casting blames. We need to...''Need to what??' She asked cutting me off angrily.'What else do you want me to do instead of casting blames? I'm you wife for God's sake and you were keeping secrets from me. You even told my father things that was related to me instead of coming to me

NEXT DAYDamon's POVI looked over to see Coralline resting her head on Victor's bed. It seemed like she was asleep. I sighed and walked towards her.I carried her and placed her on the couch I was sitting on. I watched her face for a while. It seems like she had been crying because she had dark circles around her eyes.The door was suddenly pushed open and Silas walked in. His eyes wandered around the room and when they landed on Victor's pale figure, he rushed towards him.He crouched near his bed and placed his hands on him. I could hear him sobbing. I walked towards him and placed my hands on his back as a way of comforting him.'Damon, what happened to him. Why is he suddenly lying on thd hospital bed?' He asked me.I sighed and said'Monica did this. She poisoned Victor.' I said.His teary eyes suddenly changed into a frown.'So she was really working with her father? That means she knows where he is.' He said.'Yes. It's pretty obvious now.' I said.'Where is she? Where is that
