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
A call drops on Derek's phone as Aurelius leaves, he picks it up from the table before him and checks. It's Bianca, his head is destabilized. She told him that he would be meeting with him this afternoon right from when he was at Jaria's parents' apartment. He hadn't returned yet and this was the major reason he hurried back so he would arrive on time. He breathes heavily portraying a panicky expression that calls for Eloine's attention. He rushes over to him to ask what's wrong. "Why are you scared, you are acting like something is wrong?" Derek then pauses to look at who is calling him scared, he wasn't scared with Jackson, is it just a call from Bianca he would be scared? He asks himself. "I'm not scared, I'm just confused and don't know what to do. This is Bianca calling and she wants us to go to the court then, I think she is done with her private investigations and has gathered all the points she needs."So now you will be going to court?" Eloine asks him with a surprised fac
Today he chooses to confront her after telling her the direction to his estate. "I don't want anyone quarrelling between you and Jaria as you are coming to my house, that's why I don't always want the two of you to be present at the same place." Bianca gives a very long sigh, not resembling an educated lawyer and young girl. "What do you mean now?"Derek feels his person insulted, he was her boss after all and needed to be apologized to. If she wasn't going to say it, then he is going to force her to apologize to him for her rude and mannerless way of speaking to him. "Have you forgotten that I'm your boss or you now see me as your mate, is it because you are one of the best in your field and think that I can never do without you?" Derek lowers his voice, he steadied it to ask him. Bianca blinks her eyes in shock. "Can we do video call please?" He raises up her head. Anxiety flies from nowhere into her mind. Derek has never said this to her, he hasn't talked to her or any other gir
He takes hold of her hand, then this arouses the thoughts in her that perhaps he is drunk and is horny at the same time but just at this moment, Derek speaks, clarifying his intentions."I'm not trying to seduce you, I'm feeling so anxious, dizzy and weak. It's the reason you see me this way." Jaria is disappointed, she knows it's gonna be a formal meeting perhaps he has some other thing to tell her which isn't related to what she thought before."Okay, Bianca is coming today and she will be alone with me discussing the divorce proceedings, I don't want you to come out." He puts up a serious face here, at this point. "Please if you wouldn't ever listen to me in other things, be kind enough to yourself to heed to this one, it's for your own good." "What's really gonna happen that he doesn't wants me to come outside?" Jaria asks herself. She is puzzled and that very nature shows in the way she looks at him. "Not like I want to cheat with her against you, you can ask for an evidence, l
