Chapter 68
“Yeah. Damn your finding skills. Where on which continent were we stranded because of your failure to search.” he shook his answer.
“At least, I helped you, bro. By the way, I have a hint of where your son was. You know that I’m the best doctor slash private investigator.” it even scared him.
“No need. The information you gathered may not be true anymore.” he had no appetite for promises.
“Damn you, De Leon! Don’t underestimate me because I’ve improved now. And this time I’m definitely sure.” smiling at this promise.
“Edi where?” he asked.
“Steinfields Residence. I think your husband himself kidnapped your son. He hasn’t seen Ice in five years.” Creed shrugged and took food from the plastic bag he had brought earlier.
Ivan was stunned and thought. He knew that was possible because he saw that Rigella had come home earlier but he was the only one who insisted on staying even for a while. They talked a lot but mostly about that business. They had talked about something about themselves but that was little.
“Where was the location of his house?” he asked.
Creed grinned and opened his palm. “Pay first. My service isn’t free, bro. You might forget.”
He sighed and stared. “I’ll give you your payment later. Join me first at the place you say.” he got up and frowned as his fractured arm moved slightly.
‘tangina, De Leon. Don’t do it now. You’re not well yet.” ani Creed.
“I can do it, Agoncillo. I need to see my son and my wife. They were more important than this little fracture.” his firm promise.
“SORRY, but I won’t tell you where they were. Get well first you hoodlum.” said Creed and someone took it from his pocket.
“DAMN! I said we’ll go th-” he stopped because he felt something pierce his arm.
He looked at Creed and that grinning demon. “Sleep first, De Leon. This was not the time for you to meet yet.” that was the last he heard before he was swallowed up by darkness.
Creed removed the needle he had stabbed his friend and bit his lip. If it weren’t for Marilyn she wouldn’t do that. The girl ordered him not to let Ivan approach Rigella as much as possible. Not at first right now.
He took his cellphone out of his pocket and dialed Marilyn’s number. The reason why he follows its desires was because he flirts with it. He broke up with his girlfriend just to legally marry the girl.
Only a few rings have already answered the call. He smiled. In his mind he imagined Marilyn trembling as she answered his call.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
“Hel-”
“What do you need?” Its cold voice came out of him.
Since Rigella left her habit has changed. He could no longer see it smile but even then he still wanted it.
“Isn’t there even a ‘hello’ for your handsome boyfriend, Maria?” he joked.
“I have no time for your jokes, Alexander. What do you need? I’m busy.” He replied.
A smile flashed on his lips as he called him by his second name. “Nothing. I would just say that I stabbed the beaten De Leon you gave me. How many days will he be able to sleep? About a day?” he asked coolly.
“No. He’ll be asleep for one week.” Marilyn replied bored.
He was stunned. “WHAT? Naknampucha oh! Why the delay?” he asked, frowning.
Marilyn sighed on the other line. “I hope you asked how many days he can sleep. You didn’t inject right away without knowing the effect. Tsk, you’ll take care of that. You’re a nuisance. I’m still studying.”
“Pucha. How can I explain this to Uno now?” namo-moroblema niya tanong.
“were you swearing at me? If so, you’re pucha too. It’s up to you to think of an excuse. It just happened right because it was just in line with my plan.”
“What’s your plan?” he asked seriously.
“I’ll tell you but you have to help me. And, you won’t tell anyone. It’s for everyone’s good.”
“All right, all right. I’ll go there. We’ll push that, baby!”
‘tsss. Gay! I won’t tell you. I won’t answer you either.”
“Hey, that’s just a joke, Maria babe. All right, what’s your plan?”
“Hayst. Like this …”
Andrea’s POV
“were you okay? Do you want to eat something?” I asked anxiously when Ice woke up. Thanks God!
He answered me with a sparse shake and frowned when he looked at the twin next to me.
‘they were your siblings, Ice. Rayven and Rayne.” I said smiling.
He turned to me. “How come? I thought you had a miscarriage? Don’t tell me-”
“No. Your father was their father, too. And to make it clear for you, I never had a miscarriage. It’s just my sister’s scheme for me to leave your father.” sincere answer.
There was a smile on his face. “I have a little sister?”
I felt like I was breathing easy. He”s not mad at me, right? “Yes. And also a little brother. They’re twins.” I answered him and looked at the twins. ‘twins, can you give your Kuya Ice a hug?”
They nodded immediately and approached Ice. They hugged their older brother and at the same time my tears were flowing. I”m happy because we”re finally together too. This was really the only thing I want to happen.
Smiling, Ice hugged the twins and there was still a trace of admiration on her face. Over time, things have changed in my son’s appearance. And I think he”s taller than me now. He’s already thirteen, anyway.
“I love you both …” I heard Ice whisper to the twins so I cried even more.
“I love you too, Kuya.” the twins said in chorus.

Andrea’s POV
“I won’t disagree with that, Amethyst. It’s okay. But why did you just tell me that now?” I frowned at the question and sipped wine from my glass.
