****Diana's pov****

I and Gabriel were watching and waiting eagerly for news of Mr Roberto,anything or maybe clues like finding his clothes or shoes but we got nothing

We leaned on one of the strechers beside the ambulance. After searching the whole night without hearing from the police,we went back to our various homes.

*****Rosa's pov******

i woke up and saw many missed calls from my mom and dad. I threw the phone against the wall then threw it in the dustbin.

I went out and went back to the bridge. They were still searching. I got into my car and drove home. Immediately I got in, my mom hugged me.

"Where have you been? We've been calling you since yesterday." She yelled in my face.

"I was at Carter bridge mom. They haven't found Laura and Roberto. I can't find my phone too." I started shedding crocodile tears as I checked my bag,searching for my phone.

"They still haven't found them? I'm going there myself." She said and my father agreed.

"Rosa you stay at home and rest." My dad s

    *****Diana's pov******We quickly rushed to Mr Raymond Lionel's house to check him up. By the time we got there,he was on the bed and was been attended to by the doctor. "Good afternoon sir. How is he?" I asked the doctor. "He's fine but I think finding his son would be better. His blood pressure is high and this is not good." He announced.I moved close to Mr Raymond. "Are you okay sir?" I asked."Where is my son?" He struggled to say. "We'll soon find him. We've seen his cloth." I lied.Mrs Lionel walked in with a tray and a mug in it. She dressed elegantly as usual and was admired with expensive jewels from head to toe. Her face was lit up with makeup."No wonder Mr Roberto doesn't like her." My subconscious added. "Let him have this then you can give him whatever drugs or injection." She said. She placed the tray on a small stool in the room,she then helped Mr Raymond up then carried the mug.She tried her best to feed him the tea but he pushed her away with the little streng

    *****Diana's pov*****We went in and saw Mr Raymond Lionel laying on the bed. He was fast asleep and a drip was connected to his hand. "See what that useless son of yours has done to my husband. I pray he rots in hell." Mrs Lionel whispered as she gritted her teeth. "Leave my son out of this! Don't talk about him. You are not worthy to." Mr Roberto's mother yelled."Enough! We are here to support Mr Lionel not blame someone else and yell." Gabriel almost yelled. "We just need to pray and hope we find Mr Roberto soon." I said and we all exit the room. "I'll go bring him food." Mr Roberto's mother said.Mrs Lionel held her hand. "I'm his wife so I'll be the one to get him food. Filthy mistress!" She commented. ******Rosa's pov******Days turns into weeks and weeks turned into months. I was very happy. My sister has not been found neither has Roberto being found. We decided to bury them.

    *****Audrey's pov*****I called the lawyer and he came immediately. I went outside the compound to stop him before he could enter. "Good afternoon." I said rudely and he replied. "Good afternoon ma. Let's go in." He wanted to walk in but I held his hand. "I'd like to discuss something with you and you must comply. No one must know about it except from the both of us." I said and he nodded."Don't worry. I'll pay you handsomely." I winked at him and he stood at attention. "My husband would like to transfer all his properties in my name. I'm sure he'd ask you to create a loop hole or something but I want you to make the documents in such a way that even if he has a child later on,the properties will still be in my name and it can never be altered." I said and he replied,"That would cost you a huge amount of money." "I know and I'm ready for you." I said and he laughed which annoyed me. "Why are you laughing?" I asked. "You can't pay me ma. I'd like to be paid every month." He sai

I asked myself as i continued pacing the room. "Ma that shouldn't concern you. At least you are now the CEO of Lionel corporation,no one can take that from you anymore. You can travel and buy whatever you want without asking from your husband or Roberto." She said and I nodded. "I know but I still want them to be behind me. Anything can happen. My husband can get well later and impregnate another woman later." I screamed."There's sense in what you're saying. It's none of my business anymore. All I needed is the money after all,besides the properties can't be transferred to another person again." I said and sat on my chair. *****Diego's pov*****Ever since we couldn't find my elder brother,life has been difficult. We went back to square one.

He said and left.I clung to my pillow and my mom sat beside me."What if Maria's ghost is hunting me. I killed her with my bare hands and threw her away. Or what if it's Laura,or Roberto?" I asked myself."Are ghosts real?" My subconscious added."You can't go to your husband house. The both of you would have to stay here till the matter dies down." My mom said and I agreed.I couldn't sleep throughout the night. I kept seeing Maria swimming in a pool of blood and Laura's dead body at the bottom of the sea.

"Nothing much happen to her." I said."I know and I regret pushing her. It was a mistake." He bit his upper lip.Few minutes later,the doctor came to meet us."Are you her husband sir?" He asked and my dad nodded."Let's talk privately."I held my dad's hand."You talk here. I'm her daughter and he was the one who caused this in the first place." I glared at him."Shut it Rosa! It was a mistake." He corrected. "Well,she has stroke now. A side of her brain was affected so the left side of her body is paralyzed." He announced."What? Look at what you did to her?" I yelled. I wanted to hit him but we were in public."Will she be fine?" I asked."Maybe. It's a 50_50%. She could get better or worse." He said and I shaked my head."I hope she'll be alright.

I yelled back throwing my hands in the air dramatically."I was just joking. It was just a threat. Why would I kidnap Gabriel? What use would it be for me?" She dropped her spoon."Son! That accusation is just too much. Have you reported to the police?" I eyed him and he cleared his throat."I know you'll always support her. You've been blinded by her. I'll leave and I'm going straight to the station. If I find out she has a hand in this,I'll make sure she rots in jail." I said and was about to leave when my father held my arm."And if she's not guilty what would you do? I've told you to stop accusing her for whatever thing that happens to you.

We've even beaten each other once.He placed his hand on my shoulder."Hey bro." He said and started walking out of the hospital. "What's going on? Where are we headed?" I asked but he smiled.I should tell you but Alice would kill me if I utter a single word."I've told Alice I'm no longer interested in this relationship. Why would she try to surprise me?" I yelled."Just calm down. I know my family has hurt you in so many ways. Just take this as a sorry." He smiled and opened the car for me.

    ***Rosa's pov***Watching mom try to make dad fall in with with her again was so annoying to watching. It made me cringe whenever she tried to seduce him. When I say seduce,I mean her using old stupid tricks like throwing the remote on the floor and bending to pick it while wearing a short seductive dress,I mean that's so disgusting considering they are your parent."Just get the fuck away from me. I'm trying to watch tv." My dad yelled as he left the living room."Wait up Daniel. I know you want this. Don't be shy." Mom said and she ran towards him.This is so embarrassing. I know she doesn't love him. She just wants him to change his mind against the divorce.All I want is for mom to steal shares or the company. That's all I want. I need to see Laura.
