Taron had fallen into a helpless spiral, and he did not know what to do. With the exception of taking care of Rebecca, he did not do anything else. Sure, taking care of her was something in itself, especially as he gave her all her baths and made sure that everything that she ate was cooked by him. He could not work— could not bear to think about work. His heart was grieving, and his princess could not handle the situation that she was in. They had just lost their baby, and he could not imagine how it felt to her since she was the one who was carrying it before the dreadful incident. “Sir,” Jonas came into Taron’s study. Taron looked up. “sir, I was asking for permission to come in, but you didn’t reply, are you okay, sir?” Taron looked up at Jonas and nodded. “I’m sure you heard of the recent news.” “Yes, it’s a pity, my condolences, I’d let Miss Moore know about how sorry I am when she wakes up.” Jonas said and Taron nodded. “Actually, I was thinking, Jonas, I don’t wan
It had been days since Anthony had come to talk to Taron and gone, and Taron could not stop thinking things over. Rebecca, of course, was still the same, and Taron was thinking about taking her to therapy, because she was just out of everything. And then finding whomever it was that did this. The person ended up scarring Rebecca, giving her physical and emotional trauma, and all without revealing their identity. Taron swore to himself that he would punch whomever it was square in the face when he found out who it was, but for now, he had to just stay back and watch things unfold. “And when I find you, it would not be an easy thing to let you go, if I actually let you go, that is.” He mumbled. If Rebecca was okay, she would tease Taron of being on the verge of going crazy, but she wasn’t here to do that, was she? The poor, innocent woman. Taron was not sure when he drifted off to sleep on his table, but he had a very rude awakening from his phone, as whoever it was kept on cal
Selena had received feedback of what she had planned out, and things did not go quite as she thought it would. "Did you know that she was pregnant?" Javier asked, looking angrier than she had ever seen him before. "No! If I knew that, then I would not have gone ahead with this!" "Oh really? When you said that you were going to put things in place, I did not know that you meant crashing an innocent woman!" Javier yelled at her and Selena faced him abruptly. "Do not raise your voice at me, this is the perfect moment, Taron would be weak for the next couple of months and easy to take over." Selena nodded and Javier looked at her, wondering just how crazy she was. "You killed a child! You almost killed the mother, it's a miracle that she survived it, and all of this because of money that we might not even get to have?" Javier asked her, pulling at his hair. "Calm down, she's still alive, and it's not like the child had been born yet, so it might have just been a coinc
“Rebecca, I need to talk to you.” Taron pulled Rebecca up to sit down. She was scrolling mindlessly through the channels. “I’m all ears.” Rebecca said, her voice uninterested. “I think that your accident might not have been an accident at all.” Taron said, and Rebecca looked at him wildly, like he was mad. “What do you mean?” Rebecca asked, and Taron sighed before bringing the letter out of his pocket. “What is this? Who is this person?” Rebecca asked. “I don’t know, it was delivered through a company, and my men are still trying to trace it.” Taron said and Rebecca started to cry. “The person thought that they could kill me, but they ended up killing my baby instead, and killing me on the inside, mission successful indeed.” Rebecca got out of bed and went straight into the bathroom, and soon, Taron heard the sound of running water. He had removed all the sharp objects from there, so he was not that worried, but he was definitely surprised when Rebecca came out a
"Stop, I can't do this!" Henry pushed Sarah off of him gently and sat up. Sarah sat up, wondering what went wrong. "Are you okay?" "I am, are you?" He asked. They were making out and he suddenly stopped, and he had the audacity to ask her if she was okay? "You are the one who stopped, what is wrong with you?" “You were not into it, it felt like you were trying to just do it because I wanted to, and not because you wanted to, I don’t want that.” Henry sat up and drew closer to Sarah, holding her hands gently. Sarah looked away. “Baby, what is it?” He asked. “Oh, so we are baby now? When did that happen?” Sarah asked, glaring at him. “Fine, we are not official yet, but it just moved out of my mouth, and I liked hearing it out loud.” “I am not your baby, we are just,” Sarah waved her arms around wildly. “whatever this is called! If it is called anything.” “I believe the appropriate name for this is called a situation ship.” Henry shrugged, and dodged a pil
Javier was walking around the place, wondering what to do about his situation. To fight, or to flee? He asked himself as he paced around the house. He was definitely in love with Selena, but he had never been an accomplice to something as grace as this. Attempted murder. Sure, it had been quite a while since the incident and all, but he was still worried about it. What if something like this happens again? Selena did not act as if she was a stranger to doing something like that when they talked about it. "What if she does this thing again?" He asked himself as he moved around, wondering if his life was worth all the money that she believed that they would get. After all, there was no insurance that she would allow him to remain alive after they got the money. And knowing Selena, she would find a way to collect it all from him, and it was not as if if he died, people will know about it. And if people knew about it, what would they do? Javier briefly contemplated his choices.
Rebecca got surprised when she heard their voices as they were talking about their family and the issues that they had, and so she got up to greet them. Eloise came in, walking elegantly, and Anthony was behind her, poised. They looked so young, that no one would normally believe that this was Taron's mother, and this man had children as old as her. "Rebecca, my darling!" Eloise exclaimed and went on to embrace Rebecca with a long hug. "It's so good to see you, I've missed you so much!" Rebecca replied. "And you look so wonderful, I need to know your secret." "Ah, this girl, she flatters me." "Unless if flattery is defined as the truth of things, you know?" Rebecca gave her charming smile, and Anthony laughed as he went forward to hug her. "Rebecca is only saying the truth, my dear," Anthony said, hugging her lightly. "and how are you, Rebecca?" "Actually, I'm fine, thank you for asking, the whole spell has passed now, and I'm back to being just me." She nodded.
"Taron? Can you hear me?" Rebecca asked. "Yes I can, what is going on over there?" "There are people here to see you, and I think you would want to see what is going on, and who they are." Rebecca said, her voice low. "Why are you whispering?" Taron asked Rebecca, wondering if everything was okay. "Taron, come out!" She said and disconnected. Taron looked at his mom and Anthony. “What is going on?” Eloise asked, and Taron shrugged, not knowing what to say. “Well, you should go and see what is going on, we will be right here, waiting for you to get back.” Anthony said, and Taron nodded before going out. “Hello, Mr McCarthy.” Taron froze as he heard Selena’s voice. What was she doing here? And the man that she was with— Taron could recognize the face of that man anywhere, as he looked just like his late, old friend, Pablo Hernandez. “Javier? Javier Hernandez?” Taron asked in surprise, and the man beside Selena just nodded gravely, and without a word.
