Floyd waited until a doctor came to their room to check on Carla. He felt upset seeing more bruises on her legs. His curiosity grew more because of it. He was at the side just waiting for the doctor. Minerva, who was still in bed, was watching too.
“We will prepare a room for you, Miss Carla,” said the doctor.
Carla’s eyes widened and shook her head. “N-No! I don’t want to be alone, please.” She looked at Floyd. “Please.”
Floyd cleared his throat and went to Carla’s side. “It’s okay, doctor. She can stay here.”
“Okay. But she needed a rest.”
“Ahm. You can bring another bed here instead,” Minerva said.&
Floyd decided to take care of Carla. Jude took her to a vacation house with her family. Because they learned that Carla's manager was looking for her. He, too, never got a chance to confront Dwayne anymore because they saw how big the fire cost them. But it was just easy for Floyd to fix it. He hired some men to check about the Axe gang for more evidence about the incident. Because they cannot file any case against anyone without evidence. But his secret life continued. The JL network stopped operating for a week to find a new place. Luckily, the fire might be big but they didn’t lose all their important files. The scripts they needed and other tapes for their shows. They just needed to buy new equipment because it had burned down. “I know that a lot of you now are disheartened about what happened to us,” Minerva said. She was on the stage in front of the JL network’s employees. They rented a building for their temporary place. They cannot let go of their employees because they n
“Will this be really okay?” Carla asked in hesitation.Minerva smiled at Carla and nodded. “Yes. Don’t worry. Our attorney has already sent your request for the termination of your contract with the Jacinto network. And it’s immediate.”“They will ask for money, for sure. They will never let me go that easy. I-I'm worried. What if they hurt my family?”“Don't worry about money. We are filling your case now. Anyone from the Jacinto network is not allowed to get near you. Or your family. All you need to do now is to focus on your therapy. Okay?”Carla sighed. They had been living in the house that Minerva gave them. Since then, she and her family have never gone out of that house. She had a lot of her friends telling her that Norman, her manager, was looking for her. Some are trying to get information that she knew it was because of him too.“Okay. Thank you.”&n
It was the day that Floyd had been waiting for. The first hearing was for the custody of Miguel. He wanted to get full custody of his son because he knew that being with Roxane and Dwayne would do nothing good for him. He doesn’t have a plan to take Miguel away from Roxane. He would at least give her visitation rights and let him see Miguel. But he will never give him Miguel again like now.“Do you want us to accompany you, sir?” Jude asked. He was following Floyd.“No. It’s much better if I go there alone. I don’t want Roxane to be suspicious.”Floyd stopped walking when he was in front of the car. He removed the top button of his long white sleeve. Jude gave him his brown jacket and he wore it. Finally, he scanned himself in the car's side. His hair was a bit long now for him, but still okay. It just added more to his charm. He slightly fixed his hair going through his face, then fixed his jacket again.&nbs
One week ago.Roxane was drinking her wine while waiting for Dwayne to come home. She hadn’t got a chance to talk with him earlier because he was too busy at the company. The hearing of her custody battle with Floyd was nearing. But she still doesn’t have a nice plan. Yes, Dwayne gave her the best attorneys. She felt it was still not enough. She must do something.Not long ago, Dwayne got home. Roxane greeted him.“Are you okay?” Dwayne immediately asked when he noticed that Roxane was tense.“Ahm. Actually, I’m not.”Dwayne touched Roxane’s arm and slightly scratched it. “What is it? What’s bothering you?”Roxane sighed and took her wine glass again. She drank it. “The hearing. It will happen next week. I’m worried that Floyd will take Miguel away from me.”Dwayne smirked and shook his head. “Are you ser
“Here we are.” Floyd put his card in the scanner and the door opened. “I’m sorry. My place is kind of… dirty?” Floyd was amazed when he saw the place was not what he expected. He told Jude to find him an average apartment, but this looked extravagant even though it was studio-type. At the end of the room, his king-sized bed was near the big window. He could see from their position that he also had a terrace. At their side, there was a door that he thought was the bathroom area. Floyd removed his shoes and then continued walking in the doorway. Then he saw the kitchen just right at the side of the bathroom. ‘I said simply. This is not simple,’ Floyd thought while shaking his head. Most of the things were new and he had just seen them now except for the oven and refrigerator. There was a coffee maker at the top of the counter and an oven toaster. There were cabinets hanging on the wall too. He wondered what was inside the refrigerator so he opened it. And to his surprise, it was full of

“Stop here,” Roxane commanded her driver. The car stopped in front of the gate of the compound of her old apartment. Raquel got out of the car in her elegant black dress and high stiletto. “This place did not change at all,” she said in disgust. “Wait for me here. I will not be long.”Roxane walked through the gate that her driver had already opened for her. She looked at the apartment she used to live with Floyd. ‘I can’t believe I used to live in this place.’ She shook her head. She will never be back in this place again. Roxane stopped walking when she reached the house of Raquel. The door was closed but she could hear loud music from inside. She knocked.“Are you inside?” Roxane called as she knocked. “Raquel!”Roxane
Love.That was the reason why Floyd’s life turned upside down. His love for Roxane gave him the worst thing in his life. She hurt him to the point that he never thought of having anyone at his side again. What was more important for him now was his son. He needed to take him away from that man, Dwayne Jacinto. But after what happened that night with Raquel, his conscience was eating him. He felt guilty that he had rejected Raquel. She had been too kind to him and this was what he gave in exchange, hurting her feelings.“Any updates for Raquel?” Floyd asked while sipping his coffee. He was having his breakfast in the mansion and Jude was waiting for him at his side.“She had been ignoring the messages and calls, sir. I sent some gifts to her house but no one was opening the door.”Floyd sighed. “It’s okay. I will call her myself instead,” he said. Though, Raquel was not answering his c
