Chapter 44 Marissa kept glancing at Shawn as they both walked to the nearest cafe He was not what she expected him to be Based on how the owner of the restaurant explained, she expected him to be Cold and arrogant But he's the opposite of it Also, rather than being George Slirthon son, he looks normal He was not putting on expensive clothes And there were no bodyguards following him They finally got to the restaurant and ordered their coffees But none was willing to start a conversation "Are you gonna say something or not?" Shawn said, sipping his coffee "I am not sure if I wanna say something" Marissa replied "Why? Because you doubt if I am really George Slirthon only son?" Shawn scoffed "You kept glancing at me" "I need to be sure if I haven't been fooled, You look nothing like your father" "Not all kids resembles their dad, I have a friend who is Blondie but his parents are both black Americans, a lot of people thinks he is a bastard but he....." Shawn paused when he

George was busy signing some documents when he noticed a being stormed in his office He looked up and arched his brow It was not a face of strange but he does not know where he had seen him before "I am sorry, who are you and how did you get in here?" He asked, checking the being out from head to toe "You don't even know who I am" Jackson scoffed furiously "And you dare demolish my Club" "Your club?" George arched his brow, Trying to get what he is saying "Oh" he snapped his finger "You mean you are the owner of the club I ordered to be demolished in Islington?" "That's right, it's me" Jackson clenched his fist "Why are you here? I remember telling Eric to compensate you so I believe you are not here for more money" George leaned his back on his of
Chapter 46 He turned around and saw Marissa standing behind him with folded arms "Christ! Marissa, when did you get here?!" His eyes widened in shock. "Why do you look so surprised, were you calling someone suspicious" Marissa moved closer "Yes.... I mean No... I mean yes.... What the hell are you doing here?" He stuttered "Why can't I be here? This is a hospital" Marissa scoffed "I saw you coming to the park so i followed you" "Well..." Colin cleared his throat "Did you perhaps hear my conversation with the person on the phone?" He raised his brow Hoping she would say no "I didn't" Marissa blinked cluelessly Thank goodness Colin heaved a sigh of relief "Why? Is it something I must not hear? Who were you talking to? Your girlfriend?" Marissa asked curiously "That is not your business, I don't know why you are but you should leave" Colin said and made his way back in the hospital Hoping Marissa would leave but instead, she followed him "I figured out you might be hungry
Chapter 47"Let go of him while I ask nicely" Jenny warned but Marissa won't flinchFuriously, she released Colin's hand and slapped Marissa hard on the face."Jenny! Have you lost your mind?!" Colin gasped"You've gotta be kidding me" Marissa scoffed in disbelief and wanted to retaliate but Colin stopped her"Marissa please"She slowly withdrew her hand and took a step backward, glaring at JennyShe is only forgiving her for the main time because of Colin"I will get back at you" she said and walked away while Colin followed herPleading and telling her to listen to him but Marissa won't even look at himShe was mad Mad at Jenny, mad at Colin and even mad at herself for not able to do anything while she was treated like that"Marissa, I am sorry" Colin begged"Just leave me alone" she hissed as she walked to her carShe opened the door but Colin grabbed it, blocking her from entering"Move" she warned with a glare"Jenny didn't mean to hurt you, she was just...""She was what?

Chapter 48 Colin drove back home, leaving Jenny with Emerald in the hospital while he comes to get more clothes He walked to the door and brought out his keys to unlock but noticed the door was opened. He twisted the knob and entered Stealthily, switching on the lights and grabbing a stool, getting ready to attack the intruder. The house was quiet you could hear a pin drop but he knew someone was inside He moved quietly and checked all the rooms to see where the intruder was hiding Finally, he got to his room and tiptoed in, the lights were off so the room was dark but he could see a silhouette sitting on the floor beside his bed and whimpering. He raised his brow knowing for sure it was Marissa. He dropped the stool and switched on the lights And yeah, he was right. It was indeed Marissa. "Marissa? What the hell are you doing here?" He asked but got no reply In front of her were about three bottles of alcohol And she reeks of alcohol She been drinking and sobbing all b
Chapter 49 Axel took a cab back home looking so down, trying not to cry He had gone to visit his parents at the apartment where they live but the landlord told him his parents moved out two weeks ago He was flabbergasted his parents never told him about moving out Or perhaps do they think he is now an heartless child just because he never visited them for a month? Why didn't they tell him? Throughout the one month, he called them but they never picked up his calls Two hours earlier, he got a text from his dad telling him not to come looking for them again Which was why he hurried to their house but they moved out already. The tears he had been trying to hold back slowly started to flow down his cheek. "Young man, are you okay?" The cab driver asked on noticing this He sniffed back his tears and looked out through the window Even if he had to cry, it shouldn't be inside a cab "I am fine. Something got into my eyes which is why it is teary" he tried to make something up an
Chapter 50 Colin sat quietly at a corner in the ward minutes after the detectives had left He was speechless and bewildered Judging from Emerald's statement, it seems Jackson had someone else working for him That even made him more perplexed. Since Jackson Dream is very rich and influential, many powerful people may be working for him But who could it be? It may be someone who holds grudges against him He wanted to suspect his mother-in-law, Mrs Williams but shook it off If it was Mrs Williams, then Emerald won't be the target He wanted an answer "Why are you so quiet?" Marissa asked on noticing his silence "He probably has a lot to think about, he looks pitiful" Emerald mocked He wasn't intending to look pitiful He just needed time to think "You guys are so loud" he said and stood up, grabbing his leather jacket "Where are you going?" Marissa also stood on her feet "Home" "Let's go together" "No, you stay here and watch Emerald while I am gone. Jenny is not coming
Chapter 51 Colin was confused He didn't really understood why Jenny had taken Marissa's earrings. Or maybe he was mistaken It could be Jenny's. Perhaps if he go back to his room, Marissa's earrings might still be on his dressing mirror table. "What's taking you so long? Hurry up, your food is getting cold" Jenny called from the dinning room "Coming!" He replied her and returned the earrings back in her bag. He walked to his room but Marissa's earrings was gone. It was really hers inside Jenny's bag He arched his brow, trying to wrap his head on why Jenny would take the earrings He thought of going back to ask her so she could give a reasonable explanation Who knows? She might have taken it by mistake But he thought of leaving her to see what she is up to He recalled losing his engagement ring in the same room and Marissa found it In as much as he never wanted to suspect her, he suddenly started to have the feelings that she threw the ring away His ringing tone snapped
