Listening further, Andrew,could sense the desperation in Maryanne voice but, it's okay. That's her true self.“Please people, help a single mother.”She cried pitifully.

He didn't understand when Alex, became so matured. He is being tempted to believe that's not his son, someone is faking it.“Life hasn't sweetly started for me,and you all are fighting tooth and nail, to pull me down.”He lamented. At that instance, he got a notification from a vidoe Maryanne, just dropped.“Leech!” He cursed and took a seat for he was standing earlier.“If you bother why Andrew's property is being ruined, I do not have a say to that, but, I do not regret that they destroyed his property.”“You do not have a say d

He is got enough to drink.” Andrew, said, looking at Mr. Mayonnaise,laying helplessly on the bed which they have put him. Andrew, couldn't believe the man let go of himself so easily.

“You Traitor!”He smirked angrily at her almost going to hit her, but held himself.“You went through my back and...”“And what? Loser! Just keep your silly words to yourself and don't act like you were the victim because, all of us were.”Maryanne,replied him aggressively.“So, why weren't you in jail.”He asked. All these argument, Andrew, just bent his head calculating a lot of things at the moment their cheap argument wasn't his concern.“It doesn't matter, what matters is that you have been bailed so?” “You know what? I want my son! I want to take him.”“Are you insane Sylvester?”Aunt Pearl, asked giving him a slap on the cheek. And that alerted Andrew, to raise his head.“Your son? Which son?
