At dinner, Jonathan keeps throwing stories about Fabe and him growing up together. Even implying how they knew each other a lot and support one another, and mention about her marriage and turning her backs on her fancy life, which Fabe interrupted. “I don’t think that would be necessary, Jonathan. They heard enough. Let's not dwell in the past,” Fabe glared at him in contempt. “Why shouldn’t we? Past is part of our life and that made us what we are today,” Jonathan admonished. He wanted to grill Bryce and his family for what they did to Fabe five years ago. “Who wants dessert?” Lyla passes the cake on the table but no one pick it up. Master Rafael doesn’t like the conversation and tries to change the topic asking Bryce about business, but Jonathan quickly turn it down. Wanting to push the topic about their mistreatment with Fabe. “That’s enough, Jonathan!” Fabe said firmly and slap the table. Jonathan back off and change the topic. Offering Liam the dessert, though the kid
"Why not? Fabe, your life might be in danger. We can't just let it go!" Bryce held out his hand, pointing in the direction where the guy ran."I can handle this. I don't need anyone's help."Bryce threw his hands in the air as Fabe walked out. He couldn't understand her decisions, but Bryce was worried the guy would come back and harm them."I know what you are thinking, Bryce. Let me handle this. What difference does it make if we report it to the police? They can't even solve your case!'"At least we can request for them to protect you and my son. I am only looking out for your safety.""Trust me. I got this."Bryce wanted to press her, but he knew Fabe wouldn’t give in. Instead, he offered to sleep on the couch to guard the house. Immediately, Fabe called Cali and told him what had happened."Wait, let me check the camera. I downloaded it on my laptop," Cali got up and went to his desk. He searched for Fabe's camera in his applications and reviewed the recordings, "That was not a
“Cali? He knows who I am. All this time, he knew,” Fabe cried, calling her brother. “Oh, my. Where are you?” “I’m on my way home,” Fabe sobbed.“Okay, calm down. Turn back around. Go to the club and I’ll meet you there.”Fabe quickly drifted her car around in an empty street, going to the club’s direction. While driving, her last conversation with Bryce clouded her mind. The part where he admitted loving her all these years pains her. Truth is, she never stop loving him as well. But the pain in the past haunts her. Afraid to open her heart again and fail. At the club, Fabe ordered ten shots of tequila while waiting for Cali. She wanted to forget her feelings and the pain. A guy approach her and offered another round of drinks. Fabe didn’t even bother to look at him and accepted the offer. Fabe was about to drink the tequila when suddenly, someone slapped her hand and punch the guy on his face.“What the fuck!” Fabe look up and saw Bryce, “Bryce?”“I followed you here a
Massimo cussed out seeing Bryce with Fabe and Cali. Their car was covered with bullets and Cali got shot on his arm. “What the heck happened?” Stephen immediately helped Bryce with Cali. Putting him in bed, “Ava, get some wine and knife!” Fabe went to the kitchen and gathered the things they need to treat Cali. Massimo alarmed all his men to be alert for a possible attack. “Are you going to remove the bullets using that? That’s a lot of pain!” Bryce blurted out seeing the wine and knife. Stephen ask him to hold Cali, while Fabe gagged his mouth with a towel. “Hold him tight,” Stephen instructed Bryce.Stephen lit the candle and heat the knife. Then use it to dig out the bullet in his arm. Afterward, he pour the wine directly to the wound and stitch it. Cali scream and thrash in pain. Fabe made him drink antibiotic capsule while Stephen continued stitching. After a few minutes, Cali drift off. “Check on him every thirty minutes and dress his wounds. If he started to have f
Fabe fleeted to the hospital. Cali got a high fever and were convulsing. The doctor said that he got some infection and needed a higher dose of antibiotic, injected to his fluids. “Will he be alright?” Fabe held Cali’s hand asking Stephen. “He will be. Dad assigned nurses to watched over him exclusively, and our men are scattered in the hospital. His doctor was also informed. No one can get near him aside from the assigned health care.”“That’s good to know. We are not taking any chances with Eerie,” Fabe kissed Cali’s forehead and left. Her connection with them must stay hidden at the moment.At home, Fabe put on her spandex suit and mask. She was about to head out, but Massimo caught her.“Where are you going, Ava?” “Search for Eerie.”“Stop! You will only make things worst. Cali is now in the hospital, do you want to go next? Think of Liam.”“Dad, what are you afraid off?”“Nothing. But they know you and I’m sure they know about your son. Think about it.”Fabe ponders
Bryce felt unsettled knowing Fabe hurt Jonathan and could possibly retaliate again. Cali saw it on his face.“Don’t worry, Bryce. Jonathan is still alive. For now. If he ever do anything stupid, my sister will definitely kill him.”“It’s so weird hearing that. The Fabe I knew was submissive and….”“Weak?” Cali cut him, “She was trying to change that time. You should have seen her in the field. She was unstoppable.”“Well, you trained her hard.”“Dad did, and with constant training and exposure. She became the best. But only love can distract her like that.”Fabe came back with the doctor and check on Cali. It was also time for his medicine. Then Cali fell asleep again because of the medicines administered in him.“Are you going home?” Bryce asked Fabe. “No. I’ll stay here and watch Cali.”“Then I’ll accompany you. But dinner?” “Sure.”The two decided to go at the nearest restaurant from the hospital. Bryce ordered steak and veggie salad for them and while waiting, he open
While in the spotlight, Fabe caught a glimpse of Eerie in the crowd and whispered to Stephen. He radioed the security and told them to keep an eye on her. Fabe excuse herself and went back stage searching for Eerie. She check at the corridor and offices, but didn’t find her. She was gone. “Fabe,” Bryce showed up, seeing her leave the party and followed her.“What are doing here? Get back in there!” “You saw her. Is she here?” “What? Bryce let’s go,” Fabe pulled Bryce’s hand, and suddenly, Eerie came out blocking their way. “Love birds,” Eerie uttered and point her gun at them, “You know I always thought Hamilton guy will end up with the other woman he replaced you.”“I didn’t know you are nosy. Seems like you are updated with my life. Are you that fan?” Fabe answered keeping an eye on Eerie’s gun. “Hmm, mock all you wish. Soon, your life will fall apart right in front of you.”“What do you want? This chasing is getting old. Let’s finish this. You and me!” Fabe said firm
“What! Dad, you can’t do that to, Ava! Jonathan kidnapped Bryce, she will not….”“I don’t care if she loves him! He cannot protect her and Liam!” Massimo cut in Cali’s sentiment, “My decision is final. It will be done.”Massimo set a meeting with Leo Stanley over dinner to discuss about the wedding. Jonathan already agreed. Their union will be a great asset to their businesses and to the triad.Meanwhile, Fabe and Liam went out with Bryce secretly. Watching movies and visit the playground. Enjoying the day of being a complete family.Ding!Fabe got a text message from Massimo about their client meeting over dinner. She was supposed to have dinner with Bryce’s family, and canceled it after receiving the text. “Well set it some other time. You know how strict dad when it comes to our client.”“Is it only a meeting or you will be out on a mission again? Because I’m telling you how dangerous your job is,” Bryce talked about! being Nova and urges her to stop. “I’m tied to the tri
