“How are you?” Nicole asked Draco immediately after she got close enough to him. “I’m fine,” he replied.
“Miss. Nicole, meet aunt Romina, mine and Diana’s good friend,” Draco introduced. “I am Nicole, their teacher,” Nicole introduced herself and stretch her hand for a shake.
“Nice to meet you,” Romina replied and took her hand. “How is Diana?” Nicole asked Draco.
“Sleeping, but you can see her,” He replied. “Okay, excuse me,” she said and walked away.
“Draco,” Romina called and he tuned to face her. “Who hired that lady?” Romina asked.
“We did,” he replied. “We?” She repeated with a questioning look.
“I and Diana, Iris wouldn’t let us go to school, we were prisoners. We decided to hire a teacher,” he replied.
“If you guys hire her, how do you pay her?” She asked. “Iris has this bank account with lots of money, the more debit alert we get, the more credit alert, we use the account for ourselves,” he replied to her.
“I’m sure Iris is mad at you guys,” she said. “Yeah, but who gives a dmn,” he rolled his eyes and Romina pinch his cheek.
He stared at her for a few moments and his heart felt heavy, he missed his mom and at that, he wished he could get a warm hug from his mom.
“Aunt,” he called and she smiled at him. “C….can I hug you?” He stuttered.
“You want to hug me?” She asked and he nodded his head slowly, Romina squatted to reach his level and he wrapped his arm around her neck immediately.
She hugged him back and pat his back gently. “I feel tired,” he blurted and she could relate to what he meant.
“I want Elias to see things from our point of view but he wouldn’t, Iris will do him no good. It is tiring, aunt,” he said.
“Don’t try to show him anymore, tell him the truth and support his decision,” she advised. “What if he still wants her?” Draco asked.
Romina disengage from the hug and took his hand into hers. “He is your brother, he knows best,” she said and he shook his head sideways with a pout, he hugged her again and close his eyes.
“I don’t want him to get hurt, she is going to hurt him,” he told her with his eyes still closed. “You will accept her, won’t you?” Romina asked.
“I will because you said so,” he replied and she pats his back. “You are such a good boy,” she said and he smiled.
Unknown to them Elias walked out of the room immediately after Nicole stepped in, he wanted to apologize to Draco.
He saw them when Romina crouch to his height and he hugged her. ‘Why do they feel free with Romina and not Iris just like me, we are all attracted to you. Why? Why do you need to have such a sweet personality despite going through a lot, you confuse me Romina.
I think I am in love with you and the only way to get rid of this feeling is to stay away from you, I need to snap to reality,’ he thought and walked away.

“You are here,” Nina said as Romina walked into her office. “Please don’t fire me,” she pleaded and Romina stopped.
“Why will I fire you?” Romina asked as she turned to face her. “You said you will fire me if Neil enters your office again, well….” Nina trailed off and Romina rushed into her office.
“I will kll Neil myself,” Nina growled as she followed Romina.
Neil was sitting on the swivel chair with his legs crossed on her desk. “What are you doing here? And why the heck are you sitting on my chair?!” Romina growled at him.
“The time is exactly five minutes past eleven and if my calculations are correct, you left the house a few minutes after eight, big sister. Where are you coming from?” He asked taking his leg from the table, he placed his hand on it instead and stared at Romina like a boss who was contemplating what to do with a disobedient employee.
Fromina smirked and walked closer to the table. “If I remember correctly I am the acting CEO of this company and you are….?” She trailed off waiting for him to finish the sentence.
“Nobody,” she completed it and he raised a brow at her. “You are nothing but a bastard, Neil! So go out there and find something reasonable to do with your time,” she said with her index finger pointed at the door.
“Overseeing this company should be my responsibility too but I am unlucky, ’cause I have a selfish sister!” He retorted.
“I am not your sister, you are just a greedy orphan who finds pleasure in stealing from others,” she spat.
“My father is alive! Our father!” He yelled standing up. “He is not my father! Trust me when I say I will get rid of you and that imposter!” Romina threatened.
“Imposter? Did you call your father an imposter? You are a disgrace to the Zaragoza’s family!” He loathed.
“How dare you talk about that family as if you are one of us, what’s your last name again… Young?” She inquired with a smirk and he felt his heart stop.
His gaze was locked with Romina’s, not once did he think she will uncover the truth. “I told you, Neil, I will be your end!” She yelled at him.
“No Romina, I will be your end. You have no evidence to prove your words,” he reminded.
“You think I don’t? I wouldn’t underestimate me if I were you!” She growled. “It is you who should not underestimate me,” he replied and walked away from the table.
“Watch your back Romina, you might wake up and realize I already took everything that belongs to you,” he said walking closer to her.
“Get out of my office… No, get out of my life!” She screamed. “It’s fun to watch you battle against me and lose,” he laughed.
“Drop by the mansion and take that imposter with you or you might pick his corpse the next time you visit,” she said and walked to her chair.
“Use the door, Neil!” Nina snapped at him when he wouldn’t stop glaring at Romina.
“I’ll be back for you too,” He threatened and walked away. “Romina,” Nina called.
“Just leave,” she said and Nina left, Romina turned the chair around and faced her dad’s portrait that was hung on the wall.
“How do I get rid of that b@stard?” She asked and close her eyes gently, tears flew freely out of her eyes.
Romina opened her eyes as her mind drifted to Iris, she listened to the recorder and felt bad for her after finding out the truth.
She wanted to help Iris fix her relationship with the twins because she understood why she turned out that way, she chose to hate those who hurt her and in turn, she but innocent people and herself.
“I will make Neil pay for everything and everyone he has hurt,” she promised herself and wiped the tears on her face.

Zoey was alone in the house with Mr. Zaragoza, Nanny Gloria asked Zoey to wait for Dr. Nathan’s arrival before leaving.
She wanted to meet with Elias, Mrs. Zaragoza was strong enough to undergo surgery and any delay could worsen things.
“Zoey,” Mr. Zaragoza called as he walked down the stairs. “Sir,” she answered with a smile.
“What are you doing?” He asked. “I’m waiting for someone,” she replied.
“Do you need something?” She asked. “I want to watch a movie and I need someone to keep me company,” he replied.
“Ohh,” she mouthed. “It’s fine if you can’t,” he added.
“I can, what type of movie are we watching?” She asked. “I’m not sure, should we watch telenovela?” He asked.
“Whatever you want to watch is fine by me,” she replied and sat on the couch, he sat beside her and picked up the remote.
Zoey kept a straight face as they watched, Mr. Zaragoza yawned since he was feeling sleepy.
The doorbell was rung and Zoey immediately stood up. “I’ll get it,” she told him and opened the door.
“Hi….. Is Romina around?” Doctor Nathan stuttered slightly since that was the first time he will be seeing Zoey.
“You are Dr. Nathan right?” She asked. “Yes, and you are….?” He questioned and trailed off waiting for her to complete his sentence.
“Zoey, a friend of Romina’s,” she introduced herself. “Come inside,” she gestured at the living room and walked away from the door.
She shut the door after doctor Nathan was in the living room, Dr. Nathan stared at Mr. Zaragoza his mouth open.
He might not have seen him in real life but he has seen his picture. “Dr. Nathan meets Mr. Zaragoza, Romina’s father,” Zoey introduced.
“Romina’s….. Dad?” He stuttered. “I know you are taken aback but I am alive,” Mr. Zaragoza said.
