Esther was deep in thought, Robina as she reflected on the conversation that she had with Tyler the other day.

She sincerely hoped that what had happened there with Liam couldn't be heard out loud…. if he wasn't he wasn't privy to their conversation or to what they said that day. If he was, then they would be in deep trouble.

No, he couldn't possibly have overheard them,

she shook her head to dispel such thoughts.

Irritated and annoyed by us entertaining such thoughts she stood up from the chair and started to pace.

It was hard to fathom what would happen if the news was about to get out or if it managed to leak to the public….how they would perceive her and her family would change drastically in the twinkle of an eye.

All she wanted to do was secure her family's name which, unfortunately, Katerina was hellbent on pouring down the drain making all Esther's efforts useless.

It was a little bit unfortunate that the only child who should manage to give birth ended up disfiguring hersel

    Esther still wasn't sure if it was what she had to say that pissed him off, nevertheless, she did her duty by escorting him to the gates, waving at him as he backed out of the house with his car. She waited until he was gone from her sight before retreating back into the house. Now that Dylan had left and she was truly alone, Esther could focus in peace and plan out the next things that she wanted us to do. Sitting here and feeling bad for herself wasn't going to help anybody, so she did what she could. She went online and searched for the name of Tyler's company hoping that she would be able to get an audience from there but then she remembered she didn't have to go that far.All she needed to do was check Katerina's call logs and swipe his number from there.Gaining entrance into Katarina's room was quite simple and she was able to lift his number from her computer.It turns out that her daughter had been trying to reach out to Tyler for quite some time. Inputting the number into h

    Tyler was eventually planning to go out on his own and find out what actually happened to Katerina. If it was her parents or her mother who was involved, working side by side with her cousin Liam and Mark to plan the accident, or if it was just some grand plan by somebody.Who this person was, he had no idea.So imagine his shock when Esther reached out to him saying she wanted to talk. It seemed that the pressure of what he implied the other day was getting to her and she lived in fear of whether he would spill the truth to the public, thereby defaming her family.So Miss Petrova was I correct did you and Mark plan all of this?Esther shook her head, her eyes filled up with moisture. “If I were you Tyler I would pack my bags and get as far away from this place as I can, as far from Katerina as possible He coughed not surprised that you chose this tactic route it just your new tactics to get me to leave Katerina trust me it's not going to work.”“Don't you get it?

    Esther nodded. “Yes, there is but I need you to promise me that you won't tell anyone about this.”“It depends…” he paused. “...on how insightful this information is.She smiled. “Trust me, it's very insightful. When Dylan took us to your company before the whole thing with Elizabeth happened, he was about to ask for your help with the company right?”Tyler hummed noncommittally, wondering why she was talking about something that happened weeks ago. “That's right.”“It wasn't until you accused Elizabeth of killing your parents, the murder on Grove Street that it all clicked in. I know who murdered your parents Tyler and I can prove it to you. He perked up, more than interested in what she had to say now. “I hope you're not joking about this because I pride myself and take this very, very seriously.”“No, I'm not joking about this.” She bites down on her lower lip. “I thought long and hard before I decided to tell you the truth.”“Okay, go on then.”Esther sucked in a deep breath. “Af

    The manager appeared faster than Tyler expected. He was a short bald man in an ill-fitting black suit and a lot of grease on what was left of the remainder of his hair.“Mr Petrova, I'm quite excited to see you. It's been a long time.” he shook Tyler's hands excitedly, pumping it with vigor.“I'm excited to be here too, Mr…” Tyler left the end of his sentence open-handed, waiting for the mah to fill it in.“David Buckings.” He said. “My assistant tells me that you require my services.”“Yes, I do have a safety deposit box that I want to access and I'm told that you're the man to help me get that done.”“Of course, right this way.” he gestured for Tyler to follow him up.David escorted Tyler to his office where he offered him a seat, crossing the room to his desk and rummaging for something in his drawers. Tyler sat very still, watching the man from the corner of his eyes as he pretended to be busy and uninterested.“Ah-ha!” David exclaimed softly, brandishing a key in his fist. To Tyl

    Tyler let the evidence he found in the safety deposit box stay with him for a couple of days, pondering on what to do next.He battled long and hard with his final decision, knowing what the consequences might attract.Handing over the evidence would paint Katerina's family in a bad light not to mention the aftermath of how the public would take it but then again if he didn't it would be the same as obstruction of justice and conspiring with them not to mention allowing Giorgio, Elizabeth’s husband to get away with it.After some long, hard couple of days tossing the idea from one point to the other, Tyler finally decided to release it, at least he owed his parents some form of closure by allowing their killer to get the justice that they deserved even though the man was dead.He paid off some street kid to dispose of the evidence a couple of miles away from our current location and also made sure to change the Ziploc and he swiped down the knife and the documents leaving no traces be

    Katerina sat in the hard, plastic chair staring at the little cracks in the linoleum on the hospital floor.She was waiting in for the visitation hours to kick in before going upstairs to visit Elizabeth.Right now, her life is in shambles and she just needs some form of peace to tether her to the present.Tyler's visit the other day disoriented her, making her crave for what she missed.With each passing day, Katerina felt as though some part of her was missing, and seeing Tyler, everything just seemed to click into place.Shaking her head to dispel such thoughts, Katerina focused on the present when she heard voices closer to her.It was the head nurse she met when she got here.“It's time, you can go in.” “Thank you.” Katerina bent to pick up the fresh bouquet of flowers that she'd purchased from the local vendor down the street, as well as some new books.It's silly but she and Elizabeth had a tradition where they would gift each other new sets of books while trying to how out-re

    It took a couple of days for Katerina to come to terms with losing her grandmother, eventually the rest of the family was informed and they arrived at the hospital in droves eager to find out if it was true. The next couple of days that followed were painful since at every point, she was reminded of the fact that Noona was no more.Dylan was inconsolable, going through the motions of losing his mother to the cold hands of death and Esther was busy attending and being a host to the guests that flocked to the house to pay the condolence visits.She liaised with the chef making sure that different batches of food were available, while at the same time overseeing the inflow of people in and out of the house. Esther was so efficient that Katarina felt out of the loop and a little bit useless, not handling anything.All business dealings were pushed back since most of the competitors and business partners decided to give them a break once Elizabeth's death was announced.Katerina was all a

    Katerina was mentally and emotionally exhausted.Their doors were continuously revolving with guests coming in and out of the house, all eager to pay their respects. She was so anxious to have something to distract her from what was going on that she might have finished the burial arrangements way too soon, now there was nothing to occupy her mind from the fact that one of the people that she said most about was gone.Oh, and Tyler had still not texted her.Rubbing her eyes which were blurry from staring at the ceiling too much, she sat up on the bed flinging the covers away from her body to slip her toes into the flip-flops that she kept by the bed.It was currently 4:15 pm and she was still in bed.For a long time, she stood there staring at the walls of her childhood bedroom, the posters and the little notes taped to the wall not bearing any significance to her.They were familiar but in that distant way where you couldn't quite place something.Snapping out of it, she retreated to

    EPILOGUE Katerina's plan worked perfectly.Bianca fell into the trap and spun for her by pulling out the gun.Luckily for Katerina, her SOS signal went out in time and the cops showed up in time. Katerina was able to wrestle the gun away from Bianca, throwing in a punch.The police raided the house and as expected, they found some of the things they planted. Of course, Bianca firmly refused to accept that they were there, stating that Katerina planted it.Of course, the idea was disputed since the cameras had her stationed with Bianca the entire time.Mark took the fall as unsurprisingly his parents threw him under the bus to save their skin.Thanks to Katerina, Tyler's family massacre case was reopened and they were able to place the crimes on Mark and his family. Mark served time for abduction, kidnapping, and intent to murder, along with his fraudulent crimes.Giorgio got to bow out from the whole crime rivalry gang since the crimes committed by Mark and his family were now out in

    “So I'm going to go inside and distract them, making sure their fingerprints touch some of the gadgets stuff while you guys go around and plant these things in their houses, okay?” Katerina went over the plan one more time to be sure that everyone understood.She picked Heinze and another guy called Jake to spearhead the mission, making sure plants were in places that the cops could easily access but weren't too obvious either.Once they all understood their parts of the plan she grabbed a gun, tucking it at the back of her Jean, firmly clipping it on the waistband of her pants.There's no way she's heading in there without protecting herself. “Once I give the signal, I want you to call the cops, okay?” She instructed one of the men that were staying behind, about to walk away.“Katerina, can I talk to you?” Giorgio called out just as she was about to leave. She paused. “We don't have enough time for that.”“Just a minute.” He insists and she walks over to him. “I'm really proud of

    Mason and Katerina sat down in the doctor's office, anxiously waiting for a news report on Tyler.Mason himself was a nervous wreck, his left foot tapping incessantly against the floor. He kept glancing at the door waiting for the doctor to show up.The surgery they performed on him took over 10 hours, so much so that Mason had to give up on waiting around and head home.A day later, they were back here awaiting reports from the doctor. Katerina couldn't help for but feel anxious but it wasn't only because of Tyler's issue. After Giorgio agreed to her insane plan, they started working towards it. Since they only had a small window before Mark's case was taken to court, they had to work twice as hard as they needed to.Now that she was in on the plan, Giorgio revealed how he systematically arranged for Tyler's parents to get killed and anytime she thought about it, it made her want to puke.This small reveal only showed her how sick and demented she would get to lead a crime mob lik

    Giorgio's eyes widened the moment those words escaped her lips. “Wait, what?”“Let me do it. The other time in the restaurant, you asked me to take over from you….” She squared her shoulders. “So I'll do it. If taking over from you is the only way to stop this nightmare from reoccurring, fine, I'm in.”“Katerina, no I can't ask you to do that.” He sighed.“I don't understand what's changed, less than 2 weeks ago clamping from me to take over from you.”“Well, I was too desperate to find someone to fill in my shoes so I could take a break but now I'm realizing that you may not be the best person to be to do that. You're not equipped enough.” He explained.“Okay then, why don't you teach me?” She wasn't willing to take no for an answer.“You're still not getting it!” Giorgio grunted. “This isn't something that can be taught, you have to spend years on the job before taking over. You have to be cold and calculated to do what is wrong without flinching and you're not there yet, Katerina.”

    Katerina barged into the mansion that Giorgio and his men were hiding in, pulling the bulk of his men's attention towards her.Alarmed by the sight of a stranger, they raised their weapons aiming it at her.However, Katerina was too pissed off to let it go. “Get me your boss, he and I have some business to talk about.” She ordered, daring to speak despite over a dozen guns being focused on her chest. “Well?” She arched a brow after a couple of minutes passed and nobody moved.Fearless, she took a step further. “If you guys want to bury a bullet in me, then I suggest you start or else…I'll need you to bring me to Giorgio.”She was about to do something crazy to get their attention when the person to whom she spoke stepped out. “Katerina…” he rumbled.For some reason, he wasn't so surprised to see her here. Her face was set in a grim stance. “Can we talk?”With one look in their direction, Giorgio casually ordered them to pull down their rifle and then he tilted his head to the side, i

    “Holy shit, what happened!” Katarina exclaimed, scrambling up to her feet.Esther was crouched over Dylan whose eyes were closed as if he was asleep, a large bullet wound on his chest.She gasped, standing frozen in the middle of the yard.Which reminded her…Katerina spun around in a slow circle, taking in the destruction that those guys had caused.All around them was chaos. The moving truck which contained her clothes and some furniture had toppled over to the side and the back door was riddled with bullet holes.Some of the movers were hit during the shootout and their colleagues were trying to help them stem the flow of blood pouring out from the affected areas.“Katerina, I need your help!” Mom yelled, trying but failing to make a pitiful attempt at CPR.Her mind snapped back to reality reminding her that she needed to help Dad.“Come on, we need to get him inside?” She urged.Mom's head rose up, her gaze slightly disoriented. “What do you mean?”“In case those guys come back, w

    “I think you need to move it in this direction. No, stop! That cannot go in there…what are you doing?”The cacophony of voices bounced around in Katerina's head pulling her out of her slumber.With a groan, she placed the back of her palms against her forehead, trying to shut out the noise but apparently, her window had been left open.Slightly grumpy for being abruptly woken up, Katerina flung back the covers, angrily marching towards the window to shut it when a movement from the corner of her eyes caught her attention.It seemed like there was a loading truck pushing in items and… Was that her luggage?She squinted to make out the design of the bag and to her shock, it was the bag she'd gotten on vacation with Tyler last year.How did…A thought flashed into her mind and she quickly scrambled towards her walk-in closet.Her room back at the house was like a mini-mansion. Two huge rooms split into her bedroom and her walk-in closet connected by an adjoining door which made it easy

    “First of all no one is shipping me anywhere and what the hell are you guys even talking about?” Katerina walked into the room, watching their faces light up like they knew they'd done some wrong. “Is anyone going to answer me?”Dylan stepped forward, his hands stretched in front of him in an effort to placate her. “Honey, listen I don't want you to take this in some way but your mother and I have been talking-”“You mean to say ‘discussing’ we haven't finalized on it yet.” Esther interrupted, sliding a side eye to Dylan.“Whatever.” He waved it off. “what I meant to say is that we've been thinking about you and your general well-being and uh… some things that have given us concerns.”“Concerns like what?” Katerina asked, folding her hands over her chest.Esther and Dylan exchanged a glance, something meaningful passing through them. Dylan spoke up first. “I think with everything that is going on… you've been going through a lot of things for the past couple of months and for everyone

    In a coma…Those words kept ringing in Katerina's ears as she stared up at the ceiling, mentally counting the tiles on each row.After that, she'd move to the next row and repeat the process all over again until she was tired.Anything to keep my head off suicidal thoughts or worse…. reliving both of Tyler's traumatic accidents.Mason had yet to discover fully from the shock, having staggered out of the room. When Katerina stopped him to ask, he simply mumbled that he was heading out in search of fresh air but she knew it was a lie.Just like her, he couldn't spend another moment stuck in a never-ending nightmare.Unable to stop torturing herself, Katerina replayed the doctor's words again in her head, picturing the exact moment when it sank in.“I'm sorry, we tried our possible best but sadly, it wasn't enough. He went into cardiac arrest and then anaphylactic shock, leaving us with only one option… we had to induce him into a coma.” The doctor's voice was devoid of emotion but I gu
