At this, Claire was pissed. She had wanted to hear some gossip since she loved to gossip about silly things. “You just bothered my sleep for nothing.” Claire was disappointed and dropped the call on her end.“I’m sorry…” Betty whispered as she lay in bed smiling to herself.Betty could not wait the next morning to ask Collen all she had heard. She was dying to see the reactions on his face when she would mention she knew his true identity.Betty showed up at Collen’s workplace the next day. he smiled and waved at her and she waved back smiling. He was going on a break in the next few seconds so she waited outside for him while he prepared himself for the break.He finished his preparations and approached her with a wide smile on his face. It was almost as if nothing had happened to him. she was pleased to see him smiling after their ordeal last night. She knew that his friend and especially May must

Ella had been thinking about what Betty had said days ago. She knew that Virgil was secretly seeing a witch who was excommunicated from the city long ago. She needed him to take her to see the witch so she could get some information on the supposed changer on the loose.Ella contacted Virgil as she used to when she was using him to gather information from the mainlands. She waited in their usual meeting spot in a lonely alley by the garden miles away from Raul’s workplace. Virgil showed up as usual. But this time, he was not smiling.“What is this about now? I told you that I wasn’t going to betray Collen anymore.”“This is not about Raul; so relax. In fact, you would do well to keep this secret away from him for now because it greatly affects you.” Ella defended.“What are you talking about?” Virgil frowned as he suspected she was referring to his secret meetings.“Well, let’s just say th

Hayley was shocked to hear Betty talk about Raul loving her. Betty frowned at her expression.“Were you two like dating in the mainlands?” Betty was inquisitive. She wanted to protect her man so she was trying to find out what was on Hayley’s mind to know if she was still in love with him.“No; not really,” Hayley replied looking away from her.“Do you love him?”Hayley gazed at her. “I’m planning a wedding for next month in case you haven’t noticed.”Betty smiled. “Yeah, I noticed. Just wanted to find out if you are planning to be a runaway bride.” She laughed.Hayley did not find that funny.Immediately, a maid knocked on her door to inform her that the mayor wanted to see her. She appreciated the maid and turned to Betty.“You better leave now.” She stepped out with Betty following behind her.“C’mon on… I want

Raul had returned home from work to find Ella waiting at his doorstep. He rolled his eyes and walked past her to unlock the door. She knew that he was mad at her for threatening Betty but that was far from the reason why she was there.She followed behind him and entered the house after him. Nobody else was home but them. Kal was at Tom’s, Virgil had gone on his usual secret meetings with the old witch while May and Lyono were out exploring the city with Claire. Raul headed into the kitchen to get a drink of water while she sat in the living room waiting for him.She was tired of the silent treatment she was getting from Raul and needed to change the situation. So she approached him in the kitchen where he stood for a glass of water and after a few moments of trying to choose her words, she said in a cool voice.“I can understand why you would give me this silent treatment but I beg you to hear me out.”Raul said nothing. He dropped the

Tom was surprised by what he was hearing. Ella gasped as she knew that the news had displeased her father and at this, she knew that she could not hide any longer and came out to show herself.Tom and Lyono turned to face her as soon as she came out of the corner where she was hiding. She had her head bowed a little in shame. “It’s not what it seems, dad.” She began. “I can explain.Tom approached slowly in disappointment while Lyono seized the opportunity to return to his friends.“I think I’ll rejoin the mini party. I’ll see you later, sir.” He concluded and left.Ella managed to raise her head up to look into her father’s eyes. “Please hear me out. It’s not what you think.” Raul had fallen asleep waiting in Betty’s apartment while waiting for her return. Betty arrived home in time for the preparation party. She was pleased to find Raul in her
