Vincient roughly made his way to Hannah’s ward. He was in a mess, lean and dirty to look at. The man appeared as someone who had lost his word.
Opening the door, he staggered in but then frowned seeing Hannah laying in the floor.
He took slow steps approaching her.
“Hannah?” He called lightly but didn’t get any movement from her.
“Honey, why are you sleeping on the floor?” He asked shaking her body.
His eyes dart around the room after perceiving a strange scent. His eyes caught a strange container on the table. With slow movement, he reached for it and gasped when he saw what content it is.
Poison..
“No.. no” Vincient shook his head. His eyes caught a paper too and he took it to read.
‘It’s all my fault. I destroy the family I had dreamt of and I h@ťě myself for it. I’m so sorry’
“What? Hannah no, no.. please you can’t do this no!” Vincient yelled holding Hannah’s body to himself. Tears rolled down his face uncontrollably.
“Hannah wake up! What am I supposed to do without you. Please wake up” He gritted his teeth, shutting his eyes on pain. She wasn’t breathing.
Vincent hugged her close. “Please wake up” He begged crying so hard.
He lost her, his son and everything due to his heartless desire.

“As long as a piece of $h|t like you is alive, then there’s no f-__-king way I’m gonna die”
Griffin laughed lightly sweeping his hair backwards. He went through all of that to bring this motherf-__-ker down and yet he is still alive.
Diego had been trapped into a building when he was six, poisoned when he was nine, he was stabbed, shot and then escaped explosion..
Just how many lives did he f-__-king have??
“You should have just die right Diego. I also won’t rest until you die” Griffin said bringing out the gun to $h00t Diego. However, Diego was fast enough to bring his out first.. He shot the gun out off Griffin’s hand.
Diego scoffed standing up. “How about you drop your coward attitude and fight with me like a man. Well unless you’re still afraid”
“I’m not afraid of you!!” He roared glaring.
“Then show me what you’ve got” Diego said dropping his gun to the floor.
Griffin grin. “Remember I was the one who trained you. I know all your moves”
“I’ll see you try” Diego laughed.
With this he rushed towards Diego attacking with deadly punches and kicks. Diego on the other hand was dodging them effortlessly which only upset Griffin the more.
He trained hard for this. Every single day he crave to ki|| Diego. Then why? Why is he not enough to end him. The day they fist fought because of Candy. He noticed how strong Diego had become but didn’t want to accept it.
“Die!!” Griffin yelled getting a chance to hit Diego but was surprised when the man held his fist.
With a grin Diego spoke. “My turn”
A punch flew straight to Griffin’s face breaking his jaw. Diego had reached his highest.. not because Griffin tried to ki|| him but because he had hurt Candy… Worst! She was carrying his child!
___
Last night while Candy was in his warm embrace.
“Did he touch you?” He remembered asking her. She raised her head to him and their gaze met.
“He did but I swing him down the glass centered table in the mansion and stab his hand” Candy said.
Diego only kept quiet. His wife immediately knew what’s wrong so she push herself up and kissed him lightly on the lips.
“I’m fine Di.. especially now that you’re here” She said.
Diego forced a smile but inside he was burning with anger. Griffin touched his pregnant wife..
Oh he is going to pay…
____
Griffin tried to dodge his attack making a great mistake by using the hand Candy had hurt.
Diego took it in his hold twisted the hand hard in a way his wound will reopen. A loud scream left Griffin’s lips as his pain double.
“That’s right, I wanna hear that melody brother” Diego said and then sent several punches onto Griffin’s chest.
Griffin fell to the floor and gasped for air.. the hell? Diego is stronger than their first fight. Blood fell from his lips due to the hit impact.
Anger surge through him as he force himself up again fighting with Diego who didn’t fail to give him with he deserve.

However, Venessa managed to sneak out of the building after receiving the shock of her life. Diego is still alive! She had saw the deadly fight between those two and Diego was winning. She’ll be next I’d he did.
In fact she won’t last a minute with the Devil.
Entering her car she drove off. However when she got to a certain road, a car roughly appeared before her and she immediately hit the brake.
Thinking it was some drunk @$$h0les, Venessa came down from her car.
“Hey!!! What the hell do you think you’re doing?!” She yelled impatiently.
The car door opened and a tall slender figure stepped out.
“C..candy?” Venessa stuttered.
Behind Candy, a lady appeared.. Jackie.
“Nice to meet you again Vennesa” Candy sighed. “You’ve passed your boundary again, didn’t you?”
Venessa turned to leave but her eyes met with Yazmine instead.
Oh no, she’s dead.
“Remember what I told you about breaking your bones and making you bleed” Candy said and Venessa’s eyes went wide. “I should fulfil that today”
___
Griffin fell to the floor, his face was unrecognizable with blood dripping all over. Diego dragged him up again and punch him.
Griffin sat on the floor breathing erratically, his bones was crushed making him d@mn weak. Diego was good at hitting critical parts.
Diego was breathing hard too, he got a few hit from Griffin too and was only bleeding on his lips.
“You’re wrong about one thing Griffin.. My love for Candy didn’t make me weak” He crouched before him. “But it made me stronger”
Griffin swiftly bought out a knife and pointed it to Diego. “Get lost” he grumbled while sitting on the floor.
“You’re still going to act like a coward to the end.. huh?” Diego said and Griffin chew down his bottom lips.
“I had so many chances to ki|| you Griffin.. but I didn’t. Why?” Diego asked.
“Because you aren’t smart” Griffin laughed weakly. His blood lips curled up. His blood was blurring his swollen eyes.
“Because I’m not like you.. I’m not a monster” Diego said and Griffin slowly drop his hand.
“Why are you telling me this?” Griffin asked.
“When we were fight.. I got a message that Hannah had committed suicide” Diego announced and Griffin’s expression changed. “Did you even check on her.. just how deep are you into cruelty?”
“You made me like this.. I took you as a brother but you decided to..”
“Did you really think I wanted this power from the start?” He asked.
Griffin sniffed, his eyes tearing up but he let out a small laughter. “This is f-__-king stupid.. just ki|| me already”
Diego didn’t move an inch staring at the man who was been stubborn to admit his mistake.
“I’m still gonna ki|| you.. so just do it already!!”
Diego slowly stood and dipped his hand into his pocket. He slowly turn to leave. Griffin forced himself to the gun nearby and made to $h00t Diego only to find out there’s no bullet there.
“You punk” Griffin muttered as he watch Diego take the other gun and pont it to him.
“Adios” He muttered $h00ting straight into Griffin’s forehead ending his life immediately.
Diego hand slowly dropped as his eyes teared up. He still feel like $h|t for doing this.
As Diego drive away, Griffin’s mansion blew off.. and everything within burn down.

The next day, Jameson and the other were admitted to the hospital to tend their wounds.
Aiden was chatting with Blake when Yazmine appeared.
“Yaz” He exclaimed standing up.
“Aiden!” Yazmine ran to hug him tight. Aiden did the same kissing neck.
“That jerk has a girlfriend” Blake muttered. His phone beeped.. it was time for him to leave. He gave Aiden one last look and left the place.
“Did you miss me that much?” Aiden asked when the woman was still hugging him tight.
“You have no idea” Yazmine mumbled. “I was so scared when I got the news about the bomb. Are you hurt?” She asked looking up at him.
“Just a little..”
“Huh? Where? Let me see” She demanded checking out his body.
“Yaz I’m fine” He assured but the woman refused. Aiden pecked her lips and she froze.
“I’m fine” He said again tucking her loose hair behind her ear. His eyes caught a figure from a distance and his movement paused.
Yazmine traced his gaze and found Jameson. His arm was wrapped with bandage same as he wounds.
He approached the two with a straight face.
“Oh no” Yazmine’s face was filled with worries as she check her brother out. “How could you not be careful.. why did you have to get this hurt?”
“This is nothing sis. I heal faster than a vampire” Jameson assured with a smile.
Yazmine smacked his shoulder and Jameson yelped.
“A vampire would have heal within a minute..”
“You hug him and you hit me? This is not fair sis”
“How did you expect me to hug you in your condition. You’re all wrapped”
“The doctor was the one who did too much.. I’ll ask them to remove it” Jameson said and got another smack from her.
“Remove it and I’ll ki|| you” Yazmine glared.
Aiden only watch the two siblings with a smile, however it dropped when Jameson shifted his gaze at him. For a while he kept quiet with only made him feel unsettled.
“Take care of my sister”
His word made Aiden lips fell apart. Jameson just accepted him?! His smile return.
“Thank you sir.. I’ll take care of her” Aiden said bowing a little.
Jameson stepped closer to him and place his hand in his shoulder.
“Break her heart and I’ll torture you until you die” Jameson warned and Aiden face turn paled. How scary.
Yazmine smacked him from behind. “That’s enough” she pouted.
“Can you stop hitting me?” Jameson pouted. Yazmine surprised him by hugging him.
“Thanks James” she smiled.
“Mr. James!!” Someone yelled from a distance. Jackie appeared and her eyes widened seeing his condition. She ran towards him and gasped.
“W.. what happened? W..why are you this hurt” Her eyes teared up and she immediately began to cry.
“Hey, hey” Jameson drew her close, her head laying on his chest. “I’m fine.. I’m fine stop crying”

However, Candy and Diego returned to the mansion. Old Mavis eyes teared up seeing Diego. He took slow steps towards his grandson, his eyes glittering with tears.
“You’re alive” His voice trembled. “You’re alive” he said again hugging him tight.. Diego did the same smiling.
“I’m always alive grandpa. We have good news for you” Diego turn his gaze to Candy. “You’ll be having a great grand child soon”
Old Mavis laughed with joy and spread his arm for Candy for a hug.
“Thank you so much angel” He said, his voice filled with sincerity.
The news about Romeo’s death and Diego’s return spread through the city. Diego visited his grave dropping flowers. The shock on the face of the employees in the company was priceless.. they were so happy to get their boss back.
And as for the shareholders, Diego bought them back and made a deep research on those who had bad history, then send them to jail.
Venessa was badly hurt when found, Vincent was in trauma due to his wife death and they were in prison.
Einstein went back to his family after seeing Diego. Ben was so happy.
However, Diego was extra careful with Candy. She was like an egg. He read a lot of books about pregnancy until he became an expert himself.
He coach her daily making sure she eats healthy food, go to the hospital when needed and most especially, help her out during pregnancy pain.

On the eighth month, Diego got a call from the doctor. His face turned paled hearing the news and immediately stormed out of the board meeting.
He got to the hospital in no time and got to find out where Candy was.
His breath became erratic as he paced around. He could hear the slight scream of his wife.
Yazmine, Jameson and Jackie showed up too. They had also rush here.
“Guys, I’m freaking out” Diego’s voice trembled sweeping his hair backwards.
“It’s fine”
Diego wanted a surgical birth but the doctor said it wasn’t advisable. Even childbirth was risky for her due to her situation.
He wanted to find a surrogate mother but Candy refused. It wasn’t easy for him to agree though.
Candy scream came again. This time Diego didn’t waste any moment.. he entered the labour room and head straight to her.
She was breathing erratically, her body filled with sweat as the doctor helped her.
“Di?” Her voice was filled with pain.
Diego held her hand.
“Look at only me. You can do this. Okay, I love you” He said running his fingers through her hair.
“It hurts so much Di.. I can’t bare it” She cried tearing Diego apart.
“Imagine you and I with our child, smiling and playing with each other”
Candy nodded, her chest heaving hard.
“You have to make this happen Candy.. I trust you can do this” Diego whispered.
The doctor ordered for a push and Candy scream rented the room as she obliged.
“It’s not out yet Di.. oh please God.. why is it taking so long?”
Diego gave her an assuring squeeze. He wish to take the pain away. He kept assuring her and keeping her calm until she was done. Candy collapsed to the bed..
After catching her breath, her eyes met with her husband staring close at her. He didn’t take his eyes off even for one second.
“We did it?” Candy asked in between her breath.
“Yes we did wife” He smiled caressing her cheek.
The nurses smiled at each other. These couples are so engrossed into each other.. it’s rare to see people like them.
“What do we have Di?” Candy asked hearing the tiny cries that filled the room.
Diego finally avert his gaze and look at the nurses.
A frown settled on his face when he saw them holding two babies.. Why are they holding two babies?
Seeing the shock look on Diego’s face the nurse announced with excitement.
“Congratulations! You have two healthy baby boys!”
