"Where am I ?" He asked himself, still oblivious of his present state of existence.He looked around the alley where darkness held sway, to have a recollection of what happened to him but the throbbing in his head did not allow him.He then closed his eyes and clutched his knees to his chest; placing his head between them.

Its not like, I over worked her on the farm." Mrs. Palsy said uncaringly. The doctor gave her a look that was laced with questions.

Ben asked worriedly."Come into my office please, let's talk in there."

Rose said, avoiding his gaze."Then take a look at this." James gave her a piece of paper."What is this?" She asked; taking it from him reluctantly.

"You don't talk to your mother like that. Do you know what i have Bern going through?" Rose said. "What are you saying mom? Don't you know that you have made me lived a lie." She said. "Your life has not been a lie. Gerard was your father whether because he cared for you as his own." Rose said. "Mom! Why are you defending yourself this way?" Casey said."It is not about me defending myself, I am just saying that things happened and we have to live with it." Rose said. "If I may ask. Who is my father?" "Your father is dead." Shelly said. Rose was stunned. "Who asked her to come here?" She thought to herself. "What are you doing here?" Rose asked Shelly. "I asked her to come." Casey said."How could you do this to me?" Rose said.

Mary as already knew who was calling. It was his nephew, Ben. "Oh! Ben. I have not heard from you in a while." She said. "I know aunt. I have been busy with a lot. Some weeks ago I was almost killed by an onrushing vehicle." He said."Oh my God! How are you now?" She asked. "I am doing fine. I had a broken leg and a cut on my head. The leg is almost healed although I still need a walking stick to walk." Ben said. "Was it that serious?" She asked him. "Yes! It was." He said. "I am happy that you were not killed." She said. "I am glad to be alive." He said. "How are things over there?" She asked."Things are looking up aunt." Ben said and the aunt heard the excitement in his voice. "You sound excited Ben.

Gerard was silent. He had no idea that, that was what she was referring to. He wondered how she knew about it because he had not mentioned it to anyone in the house. He was actually going to do that, first thing in the morning when everyone who worked in his mansion were present. Gerard began to thonk about how she might have known about it.Rose by now was exhausted and disappointed because this was not the way she planned on handling the discussion with Gerard. "Who told you that Ben is my son?" He asked her. Rose was quiet because she did not know what to tell him. Gerard knew that Rose was a woman who was very desperate. He understood that she was someone who would do anything to get what she wanted even if it meant taking out the person.This was why Gerard had told Ben not to tell anyone about it until he told him to. Gerard was being careful of his wife. "Rose! Who told you that Ben is my son." He asked her again. Rose had no other option but to tell him the truth. "Some days a

"I tell you this with the utmost sincerity. He actually declared him to everyone at the company today, that Ben was his son." Victor said to Rose. Rose was speechless. "Are you still there?" Victor asked her. "I am here." Rose said. Rose wassurprisingly calm. "I am sure you knew about Ben being his son." Victor said. "I just knew two days ago even though I had to find out myself." Rose said."How do you mean, you had to find out yourself?" Victor asked her. "He did not tell me about it. I had to get a hand on the result of the DNA test that he did to know about it." Rose said rather irritatingly. "Okay! I think I understand what you meant earlier on." Victor said. There was a brief silence. "Listen Mr. Victor, do not call again. I thought I made that clear the last time we spoke." Rose said."I know that you did but I just felt that you needed to know about what happened this morning." Victor said."Like I have said don't ever call me again." Rose said and cut the call. "This woman i

Gerard and Ben spent all day in Ben's room and then later in the evening, they both had dinner alone without Rose. Ben was so elated that he was grinning all through that evening. Mrs. Mendoza noticed it and she was wondering what was making him feel so joyful. "Ben could not even eat. The happiness was enough satisfaction. Gerard was also not hungry. He was happy that he now had an heir. Someone that would take over from him when he was ready to hand it all to Ben. At some point he thought that he was sterile. He thought he was the one that had a problem getting a woman pregnant. Now it was certain that he was not a sterile man. If not for the fact that he lost one of his children, he would also have had a daughter."Dad! I am trying hard not to call you dad because you said we should keep it a secret." Ben said. "I know how hard it is going to be for you but we have to hide it until I complete what I want to do. Once that is done I will introduce you as my son to the world." Gerard
