For the night, Derek and Jaria books a meeting with Clara and Dennis to discuss about their plan of taking Emily and Albert with them. Clara's heart beats faster than usual, she wants to know what's happening as soon as possible while her husband is just relaxed waiting for them to speak.Derek speaks first, being the head. He sees himself as the boss, an indirect head. Though Jaria has come to play a vital role in his life as a friend, he is still her boss."We just wanted to help Emily and Albert, I'll be giving them work at my company, I don't know how you see it. They are grown and should be financially independent but I know that you have really tried for them."Clara nods in acceptance. Dennis is thoughtful. Jaria prays that her parents accepts this but there is no excuse for them not to accept. Also, she remembers what Emily claimed they said when she asked her of who will take her place when she is gone.She decides to bring up the question. "Mom, you have to accept. I think y
At midnight, Derek places a call to his lawyer, Bianca while sleeping with Jaria. He realized that sleeping side by side with her on the same bed and in the same room which was assigned to him gives him an amount of confidence no other thing can. Jaria was asleep before now but she immediately wakes up upon hearing him make a call. Being a highly conscious person, whatever happens while she is asleep wakes get up. Her eyes are spread open, she decides to pay attention to what Derek is going to say to the person on the other end."Hello Bianca."Just hearing this makes her jealous. She sits up on the bed and gives Derek an envious stare, she is disturbed, it's quite obvious on her face."What's going on, calling Bianca at this time of the night?" She mutters to herself but Derek asks her to calm down."Hello darling." She hears her respond from the other end. Her heart is shattered. "When did she start calling you darling?" She asks our aloud."Who's that on your background?" Bianca
In the morning, the fleet of cars that had dropped Derek and Jaria off here assembles, with all the security personnel who had booked the lounge and came from there for duty. They are right here to pick Derek, Jaria, Emily and Albert.Derek had ordered them to take their belongings into the car without minding anyone when they arrive. Bianca had called earlier, at around 4 AM concerning what he asked her last night.She let him know that the law was against Dennis' act, they weren't happy to be where they were, talking of Emily and Albert but they had no choice which automatically makes the situation a modern day slavery. Dennis would be getting a twenty-one years prison sentence if he should be convicted in a court of law.Her words gave Derek the courage to desire to take Emily and Albert away without seeking any further consultation. Clara walks into the room where Derek and her daughter are, supervising the packing of their stuff.It's been years she met her daughter because she h
After Dennis is gone, the packing goes on peacefully, until the guards who had taken him to the station returns. By now, everything is done and they would be departing. Clara is heartbroken that she will have to be living alone. She breaks down in tears and is only left for Derek and Jaria to comfort her.Derek looks for what to do which will make her happy. Money. He takes out his briefcase from his car, then counts thirty thousand dollars and hands it over to her. Thirty thousand dollars to him is a very small amount of money to him compared to what he has in his account but to Clara, it's a very great amount.She jumps up high in the air and hangs on Derek's neck. "Thanks so much for putting a smile on my face, I didn't expect this great luck for me today." She giggles, dances and jubilates. "With this, I can do a lot of things. I'm so happy."Jaria is so happy to see her mother's jubilation, she hugs her so tight and wants to remain like this with her for the rest of the day but t
Derek arrives at his estate with Jaria, Emily, Albert and his security after having a smooth and long journey. Along the way, the trauma of being ambushed by Jackson came up, upon returning, the first thing on his mind is to do what Jaria said, auditing the company and bringing him out from where he is hiding.Dawson, his grandfather whom he assumes as his father, visits unexpectedly. He arrives at the time Derek is guiding Emily and Albert on where to pack into. Dawson had gone away from the estate, to live in a separate estate, desiring to see Derek live an independent life. This happened, not too long ago.He calls him aside after Emily and Albert greeted him, he knows Jaria already as the secretary and fake girlfriend of Derek. In the inner room a little bit far away from here, Dawson tries to enquire who these people are and why they are packing into his estate.He has given the property to Derek and isn't asking like he is still in charge, but just out of mere interest. "They ar
"Well, I just came in for today. I don't really have anything doing, I'll be back to my estate." He observes a deeper grin lights up on Derek's face, he surely knows his son wants him back to his estate, he wants to live a life of privacy but there is nothing he can say about that. He can't obstruct him either, he's an adult.Finally, Emily and Albert are settled in. Derek invites his staff, including the security guarding his estate and gets them introduced to evade any harassment on them. Then he treats them, Jaria and his dad to a sumptuous meal, Eloine comes in to visit with an important news, which is supposed to be directed to Derek privately.Seeing him with lot of people, including his dad, he waits patiently for him to finish up with the meal, then he would go ahead and pass on his information. The meal is over within thirty minutes and each member at the table retires to their various rooms.Dawson says goodbye to his son and heads for home, while Derek goes over to meet Elo
Aurelius descends down to the first floor of the residential main block using the elevator, same like Derek but different ones. They meet Eloine down, who is in a haste. They rush over to enter the car which is packed on the wait. The driver is already dressed and is seated inside of it. Eloine takes his place in the front while Aurelius opens the back door for his boss, then closes it, walks over to the other side, opens the door, enters and takes his seat beside his boss."Aurelius, I didn't tell you where we are heading to. Jackson is reportedly hiding in the company, working in the control room and his target is on me. He had begun a conspiring with a treacherous group and their target is also on the financial office. If they can capture the pin to the company account, they will drain all the money.""But why is he doing all of these?" Aurelius asks. "Seriously, I don't really know his intentions of all doing all of these, could it be the little disgrace I made in front of ever
"You are under arrest!" One of the officers order, walking straight to him where he is sitting. He raises his head and stares down the man with bad eyes. Derek wonders what he is up to as he's not saying anything even at being asked to submit himself for arrest.The officer moves closer to him, in a flash, he pulls out a gun and is about to shoot when the men dash in on him overpowering him and taking the gun away from him, they think it's over, he is handcuffed and led away to Derek who asks to see him.He is brought to his office where he is with Aurelius and Elione. "You wanted to hold me captive by laying an ambush for me on the road, now you are my hostage. I'm going to do with you whatever I wish."Derek is determined to mock him, to continue to disgrace him in all possible ways even though it was this that prompted him to do all he is doing, his assistant is grinning from ear to ear."Make him kneel there before me!" He was standing, but upon this instruction, the men move for
