Chapter 75: Dark days

[YEARS AGO]

After Diego's recovery, Nana took him home, fed and tucked him in his bed.

"I'm so sorry baby, I wasn't there to protect you" Nana said, patting his hair gently.

Diego stayed quiet and her heart breaks. Recovering from the shock is going to take a while. Kissing his forehead, she lay beside him, hugging his tiny body.

Meanwhile, after Diego fell asleep, Nana heard the scream of her husband downstairs.

"Nana!!" Romeo's roared made her flinched. Did something happen?

She carefully disconnected herself from sleeping Diego and rushed down to meet him. She found Romeo seated on the couch, a file on the table.

Nervously, she played with the hem of her dress, the look on his face scares her.

"You called" She whispered so low, her mind riling from what might have happened.

"Pick up the file" He demanded, his voice cold.

Nana opened the file on the table, checking the content, her eyes widened.

"It can't be" she shook her head. She face her husband, panicking. "This is not true!"
