The family of three quickly went to board a cab. Kimberly looked at her parents and commented.

“Mom, Dad. I'm not going back to that villa. I'll be going to look for work tomorrow.”

"I think it's time I work hard and earn something for myself. If I knew that something like this would happen to me, I would have saved a lot of money when Bernard was generous rather than being so extravagant.”

Kimberly had been spending recklessly because she believed that the money would keep coming. She had no idea that a time like that would come.

The couple shared a glance before Patricia suggested. "Why don't you go to Miranda's office. I'm sure she'll surely have something for her sister.”

"She has two businesses. And it won't be a bad idea if she allows you to manage the diner. Or she could give you a good job at the decor firm.”

“Are you sure about that, Mom?" Kimberly was now considering her mother's suggestion. Earlier, she didn't even want to think about it because she was not happy with her s

    “Alright, Sir. I'll be at the villa tomorrow morning so we can go together." Sean said to Richard.After that, the call ended immediately.***Early the next morning, Patricia woke up early and went to knock on Kimberly's door.She had already occupied the empty room which Miranda and her husband used to stay in.Kimberly didn't have money to pay for the rent so she has to work harder to earn.Patricia, on the other hand, only has a little savings which they'd be using to sustain themselves and sort out utility bills for the meantime.Bang Bang Bang.Patricia knocked on the door one last time and Kimberly answered from inside.“Who is disturbing my beauty sleep this morning? Can't you see that it's still very early.”"Please, let me enjoy my sleep.”"Kimberly, open this door now, you lazy brat. If this is how you plan on working and earning, then we'll all starve to death.”"How can you still be asleep by this time when you should have gotten ready to leave.” Patricia angrily blurted

    “I'm afraid, I can't do that. I can only do what you ask me to do if the order came from the boss.”"However, you can save yourself any embarrassment by paying for your food. Moreover, our food is quite affordable.”“What insolence.” Patricia muttered and exchanged glances with Kimberly.Just because of some food, she was being embarrassed by a waitress in her daughter's restaurant.“Mom, did you hear what she just said to us. Why don't I give her a slap so she can have some respect.”Even when there were other customers at the place, Kimberly was almost on her feet to slap the girl but Patricia held her back."She's not worth it. Don't touch her here at everyone's gaze. They'll put all the blame on you.”Reluctantly, Kimberly rolled her eyes and sat down.The waitress said nothing else to them. She turned her back and was about to start leaving but Patricia called her back.“Go and call Nikita or Clara. Tell them that the boss's mother is calling for their attention.”"Yes, Ma'am." T

    In her dreams.There was no way Miranda would even think about employing someone like Kimberly. Kimberly will destroy everything she's worked so hard to build in just a few weeks of working for her.Kimberly would disrespect everyone and treat her employees really badly.She'd take advantage of her relationship with Miranda and act as she likes.While Miranda was laughing at her, they couldn't even read the sarcasm in her laughter. Instead, they joined her and also began to smile.“I know it sounded funny that I want to start working. Unfortunately, I have no choice now. If I don't work, I won't be able to take care of myself and our parents.” Kimberly continued but got a shocking response from Miranda."You're just dreaming, Kim. I'm never letting someone like you work for me. Go and look for work elsewhere." "Why, Mira? Why would you even say a thing like that to your sister? Are you trying to say that she's not capable of doing a great job?” Patricia angrily blurted out when she

    “You can't be serious, Mira. Are you really asking Mom and I out of your company?” Kimberly inquired seriously but Miranda said nothing to her.She ignored them and continued with what she was doing.“I'm sorry, Ma'ams. You two have to leave immediately. If you don't, we'll be forced to drag you out and you won't like it.” One of the two guards said to the mother and daughter whose gazes were fixed on Miranda.The looks on their faces was like a burning coal that could get Miranda burnt. If they acted on their rage, Miranda would be torn into tiny pieces.She was pissing them off indeed.“Come on, Kimberly. Let's leave for now. Don't worry, we'll come back next time." “I can see that Miranda is now doing too much but we won't give up. I'm still her mother after all.”While the mother and daughter walked out of the place, Miranda ignored them and pretended like she didn't care.However, when they left her office, she stopped what she was doing and gazed at the door.Indeed, she was fe

    "Yeah. That's the place. I think it might help you somehow to try and recall something about yourself.” Korra added as they drove off.She took a glance at Liam and saw the sullen look on his face before asking.“What's the problem? It looks like you don't want us to go there. If it's so, then let's change our route." Korra was about to change direction but Liam stopped her. "I want to go to the place. I want to see the spot where I was attacked. Maybe it'll somehow help me recall something.”"Alright then." The duo didn't say anything to each other until they got to the river.Korra parked the car by the side and hurried out. Liam also came down and she went to hold his hand like a child who was being led somewhere by his mother.They got to a particular spot and Korra stopped walking.She pointed at the ground where they stood and turned to Liam, saying. “This is the spot where you laid helplessly and were continuously beaten up by the gang.”“They held you tightly against the gro

    While they drove home, Korra asked him with a warm smile on her face. “Is there anywhere else you'd like us to go? I can take you there." “I can take you to a coconut farm so we both get some coconut water. What do you think?” Korra was only trying to make Liam feel at ease.She could see the look on his face and how frustrated he was probably because he was yet to find out anything about himself.If only he could get the slightest hint about who he was, it'll be of help to him.“It's ok. We can just head back home." Liam declined the offer. He didn't want to bother Korra anymore.Moreover, she's not obligated to act as his guide by driving him around.After glancing at him for a while, Korra decided to overrule his decision. She took him to a coconut farm anyway and they both had some coconut water.Liam enjoyed it and was happy that Korra ignored him and insisted to took him to the farm.After all the driving, they finally got home. However, none of the boys were around.Just like
