Nathan was about to head out for lunch when his phone rang, interrupting his plans. He quickly answered, hoping it wasn't a work-related call. But to his surprise, it was Officer Lewis's neighbour on the line. "Yes?" Nathan said curtly, wondering why the neighbour was calling him. "Hi, this is Officer Lewis's neighbour," the man said. "I'm calling to let you know that he's back from his trip. He returned this morning, so you can come by tomorrow to see him as planned." Nathan's interest piqued, he thanked the neighbour profusely. "Thank you so much for calling! I appreciate it." He ended the call. “Now, it's finally time to know the truth" he said to himself and walked out of his office. —--------- "Join me for lunch, my treat," Damian invited, striding towards Ruby's desk with a charming smile. Ruby's eyes flicked to her watch, "I'm afraid I won't be able to join you, sir. I have a prior commitment with a friend. Maybe some other time" She had agreed to meet Jeremy, who had retur

"What's our next move, Dad?" Nathan asked as they walked away from Officer Lewis's house, filled with the valuable information they had been seeking. His father's eyes narrowed, a determined glint in his eye. "First, we need to investigate Javier Caden. That fraud has been a thorn in my side for far too long, pretending to be something he's not. I'm going to expose him for the impostor he is and bring him down with every ounce of strength I have.” “I really find it hard to believe we have been fooled for months. I wonder the kind of reaction Ashley would have on her face when she knows that her secret has been discovered. As they were about to enter the car,he got a message notification from Veronica telling him to meet up with her at their favourite place at night. A smile appeared on his face,it soon disappeared before his Father would see it because a series of questions would follow immediately. —------- Ruby was busy cleaning her house on Saturday when her phone rang, displayi

Damian subtly adjusted his plate, intuitively sensing Ruby's expectation for him to begin eating. As he glanced up, he caught her biting her lower lip in anticipation of her first bite. Oblivious to his gaze, Ruby focused on her food, unaware of Damian's lingering attention on her lips. The memory of their recent kiss resurfaced. His mind wandered, imagining the softness of her lips and the spark that would have ignited if she had kissed him back. The thought sent a thrill through him, and he quickly looked away, focusing on his own meal to conceal his fascination. As Damian took his first bite, Ruby's enthusiasm was palpable. She dug into her food,her eyes closing in rapture as she savoured the flavours. Damian couldn't help but be captivated by her joy, his chuckles escaping as he watched her relish each morsel. "Were you laughing at me?" Ruby asked, her eyes snapping open, a hint of defensiveness in her voice. Damian feigned nonchalance, "Are you a baby?" he teased, trying to con

Ruby exhaled a heavy sigh as she stepped into her darkened home, the shadows enveloping her like a comforting embrace. She didn't bother to flip the light switch, preferring the sombre atmosphere to match her mood. Her mind was still reeling from her confession to Damian, and the fear of potentially straining their friendly relationship between them weighed heavily on her heart. Lost in thought, she was startled by the sudden illumination of her living room, her nerves jolting her into a frightened jump. "Surprise!" Raymond and Melissa chimed in unison, their excitement piercing the air. Ruby's moodiness was momentarily forgotten as she rose from her seat, a mix of surprise and delight etched on her face. "What are you two doing here?" she asked, her voice laced with wonder. Melissa explained, "Raymond's on holiday, and he insisted we come over to your place." The unexpected visit was a welcome distraction from her tumultuous thoughts, and Ruby's face broke into a warm smile as she emb

Ashley's fear was palpable as she confided in Thomas, her voice trembling. "Ever since Mathew's threatening visit, I'm terrified he'll uncover the secrets I've worked so hard to keep hidden. He's determined to expose Damian as a fraud, and I know he'll stop at nothing." Her eyes pleaded with Thomas, who shared her concern. "We need to take action, Thomas. We can't let Mathew destroy me...or Damian. Do you have any idea what we can do to prevent this? We need to destroy him first before he destroys me" Her hands were trembling in fear as she spoke. Thomas began, making sure his words were convincing "The only way Mathew's claims would be believed is through a DNA test. We must make sure he does get his hands on Javier's DNA" Ashley's concerns still lingered, "But what if he officially requests a DNA test? He's relentless when desperate." "He won't dare make an official request. He's seeking leverage, knowing his claims won't be believed. If he goes official, he'll appear desperate an
