"I will bring the children back, I promise you. They will be back soon," he promised her unaware that as he made those promises, the babies were on their way to Washington. Luis and Rose got home. They both went upstairs and freshened up."Babe, I will be up late tonight. Get some rest, I will join you later" Luis said, kissed her and left the room.In the study, he turned on the laptop and went into his email to see the emails sent to him. He started going through them."So Lily's nanny was planted in Derry's home," Luis thought going through the deleted conversation picked from her phone but it was not enough.It was 11 pm when he decided to call Derry. He answered the call after three rings. "Hello," he said inside the bathroom after sneaking out of the bedroom so he won't wake Lily up. "Your nanny drugged Lily from my findings but it is not enough. Can you help me with any footage from your CCTV?" Luis requested but Derry was not shocked by the revelation."Sure, give me 15 minu

"Yes, that is why I plan on using media power. I am putting everything online let's see how he gets out of that. Media power," Luis said smiling "That is a good plan." Derry said, "My dad is influential and powerful, I will reach out to him, and he will help," he added"Great, I will get to work. How is Lily by the way?" enquired Luis "She is still hurting. She... she has gone silent," Derry replied sadly "Take her out of the environment. It would help a little," Luis suggested and Derry nodded in agreement With that, Luis excused himself and left the office. Inside the car, he retrieved his phone from his pocket and dialled a number, bringing the phone to his ears"How are you?" he said once the call connected"Good boss," replied the person on the other end of the call"I have confirmation, our suspected person is who we think he is. So, proceed to get concrete evidence. Close monitoring. Once you have something send it to me immediately and get out of there," he said and discon

"Perfect," he said and Rose looked at him wondering what was on his phone that he was smiling about but he said nothing and continued driving"What is it?" she asked curiously "Just work," he replied and rubbed her chin with his thumb gently before putting both hands on the steering. "Okay," she replied and kept her eyes on the road. As soon as they got home, Luis kissed Rose on the cheeks and quickly proceeded to his basement.Rose immediately knew the notification; he received in the car was probably a lead on the investigation. Meaning he had found something on Mr Mingle. She smiled and went to the kitchen to grab a glass of water and after she started preparing some tea for Luis.In the basement, Luis turned on the light and put all his machines on."My babies, Dad needs you to do something really fun for him," he said while opening some apps on the machines and waiting for other machines to fully boot.He connected the headset to the machine and put it on. He pulled a seat and

He met the board of directors and they had a long discussion and he continued with work after.Derry joined his third and last meeting for the day. In the meeting, he was a bit distracted. He felt content in his heart, having adopted the children but was still afraid to advance his relationship with Lily, especially now that Derrick was back in Town. "Will Lily go back to him?" he thought recalling Luis's several warnings."Sir, what do you think of the idea?" asked one of the board members Derry sat at the head of the table surrounded by 6 board members, 3 on each side of the table. He could see their lips moving and images flashing on the projector but nothing they were saying was registering on his mind. "Sir, Mr McClean?" the board member sitting closest to him called "Yes," he said snapping out of his thoughts"I just wanted to know what you thought of the idea for the project," th

He returned to the bedroom to see Derrick had replied indicating he wasn't asleep himself. He sighed and left the bedroom for his study.

Derrick watched the chemistry between the two and already knew he had lost Lily. Derry left and Lily turned to face Derrick. There was silence in the room for 10 minutes but it felt like a whole day for Lily. Derrick cleared his throat and got up to sit next to Lily but she stopped him."Please, don't come close to me," she said with a straight face Derrick sat back in his seat "I am sorry about that," he said "Okay. Why do you want to see me," Lily asked going straight to the point "Lily, I came here to apologize. No matter my explanation it doesn't change the fact that I abandoned you when you needed me most," he started and Lily looked on with a straight face, constantly reminding herself Derry was just in the living room to keep herself calm. "So, why did you leave? All I remember was you apologizing," she said and Derrick remembered that day, He had spoken to his father and he left the hospital after. He recalled Lily's state when he left.Derrick narrated their entire lif

Derrick smiled but he knew Rose was right, if he had been a little brave, he and Lily would have been together but well maybe their love was never meant to be. Derrick spent some time with his children before leaving for his apartment. He decided to stay around for a while before going back to Washington. In his apartment, he stood in the living room recalling memories of himself and Lily. His eyes shifted to the dining and he remembered the first time he had cooked for her. He recalled the good time they had.He went up to the bedroom. He opened the door and the familiar fragrance that used to greet him when she was in the room was no longer there. He scanned the room and the dressing table still had her stuff on it. He opened the closet and her clothes were still in there. Neither she nor he returned to the apartment after she was rushed to the hospital. He removed one of her dresses from the hanger and hugged it. It did carry traces of her scent. He lies on the bed hugging her d

"Yep, I kept you away from Lily because he was still gloomy about her but he started taking things to the next level with Isabel, I decided to let you two be," Luis replied"Does your wife know?" he enquired "No, when I found Derrick, I sent Isabel there to monitor him. She got herself employed in his new company, Armani or something, some weird name, I don't know how he comes up with company names. Anyway, she got close to him and he found solace in her. She yielded so I let them be," he explained "So Derrick doesn't know," Derry said"No, he doesn't. Isabel is a CID. She is in love with Derrick now and she will come clean after our operation. She is a strong woman; she can handle rejection if things don't go well. I am sure by now Derrick, wait let me show you. This is an invasion of privacy but I have to test my butterflies," Luis said "but pretend you didn't know," he added and he brought up a screen and Derrick could be seen lying on his bed hugging a lady's dress"Is that a l
