Jade walked away from her hidden spot as she received Sonia's phone call, "I was going to call you..." "Where are you right now?" Sonia asked, interrupting Jade. Sonia had planned to give Lucy a call, but seeing as Lucy had not called her all day despite the text she had sent her and remembering what Evelyn said about Lucy being at the hospital with Harry's dad, she decided to first speak with Jade and wait for Lucy to call her. She was trying to distract herself from worrying about Bryan, who had left…-

Once Harry stepped inside the room, both Candace and Aaron looked at him, and he paused, "I could come back later if you need priv..." "Don't be silly," Aaron scolded with disapproval while Candace looked at Harry with a guarded expression. She didn't require any introductions to know who he was. The man standing before her was the person she had never met but had heard so much about from the staff at Tom's house during her stay there, and also Jade. The man she had now been told was her biological…

"Where is Sonia?" Evelyn asked curiously when Bryan walked into the house, but he headed for the stairs and didn't respond to her question as he continued up the stairs. Evelyn raised a brow as she watched him disappear, but before she could comment on his behavior, Sonia walked into the house and looked in the direction Bryan had taken before smiling at Evelyn. "Sorry I didn't come back to the Perrys' house as I said I would," she said apologetically as she went to join Evelyn and Desmond in the living…

Aaron's body shook violently as he wept in Candace's arm, and before long, Candace found herself crying too, while Lucy watched them both with tears in her eyes. Thankfully, Candace had led Aaron back into the room, and they were seated on his bed now, where he sat sobbing uncontrollably. Anyone could tell by the way he wept that he was deeply sad. "I'm sorry," Aaron cried. "I'm so sorry," Aaron kept crying. She didn't know what to say or how to respond to his apology. She was too overwhelmed by her…

Harry gave Jade a once over when she joined him in the living room some minutes later, dressed casually in a long-sleeved floral top and a pair of black trousers. "Ready?" He asked, and she gave him a nod. "Yeah," Jade said quietly. Perhaps it was because of Harry's unexpected behavior in the last couple of minutes, the mere sight of him now not only made butterflies flutter in her belly his voice also made her heart jump. "Let's go," Harry said as he led her to the door and held it open for her. How…

As Tom and Lucy strolled down the hospital hallway in silence, Lucy turned to Tom when she remembered something Jamal had said earlier, "By the way, did you really offer Jamal a car in exchange for him to leave me alone?" Lucy asked curiously, and Tom chuckled. "That wasn't what happened. He asked me for a car, and I agreed to give him one. But he became greedy and also wanted you too. What did you expect me to say?" Tom asked, and Lucy giggled. "So it had to be me or the car. Which did he choose?" Lucy…

Harry watched Jade with a guarded expression as she spoke, careful not to reveal anything even though he was actually very surprised that she had finally come around to stating what she wanted. This was interesting. At least now they could stop playing games and act like two sensible mature adults. "You should say something," Jade urged him with a slight frown when he merely kept staring at her. "I'm not sure I understand what you mean Esquire," Harry said as he stepped closer to her and tucked a short…

Jade's mouth went dry and she gulped nervously when Harry's now darkened brandy brown eyes slowly returned to her face. His gaze skittered across her face and then he met her eyes briefly before his gaze wandered to her lips where it stayed with deliberate intent. She was not over the shock that Harry had been checking out her boobs so openly and unashamedly a moment ago, now he was doing this? Although his eyes had met hers only briefly, she wasn't too naive or slow as not to recognize the subtle…

Neither Aaron nor Candace said a word to each other, instead Jamal did all the talking while they both laughed occasionally whenever Jamal said something funny. "You said something earlier. Did Tom really promise you a car if you leave Lucy alone?" Aaron asked, and Jamal grinned as he bobbed his head. "He did." "So what did you say? Did you promise to let her be?" Aaron asked, and Jamal shook his head. "Lucy has a car too. So I can as well use her car, right?" Jamal asked making both Aaron and Candace…

Harry took a deep breath as he walked out of his bathroom and squared his shoulders as he opened his bedroom door in preparation to face Jade. "I am not going anywhere!" Jade stated as soon as he opened the door. "Why not?" Harry asked, and Jade shrugged. "I already made it clear I flew down to Ludus to be here with you. So, do not let my effort go to waste," Jade said, and Harry sighed. "Jade, this is not good time." "It's not a good time for what exactly?" Jade asked with a slightly raised brow as…
