FIRST SETBACK
Groaning as he stood up, Jake tried to go after the men holding Juliet. Even though he had broken a few ribs, he wasn't going to allow them lock her up again. Just as he was about to go and attack them, the door bell rang stopping him and the men in their tracks. Watching his father-in-law glance at the maids to open the door, Jake cleaned his mouth as he looked at his daughter. He didn't want her to see him like this. “ Is this the Fisher family house?” A man asked at the door making the air fill of tension. Watching the maid whisper some things at the door, Jake looked around and saw that their attention was focused on what was happening. Glancing at his daughter, Jake signaled her what to do to get out of the grasp of the person holding her. Just as he had instructed, Juliet bit the hand of the man that had been holding her surprising him. The sudden scream of the man immediately startled everyone as they turned their attention towards him. “ Was that a scream I heard just now?”

GOLD UNDERNEATH
Unable to get over his parents death, Jake returned back to the restaurant. Even though the police claimed that they were looking for their murders, he knew better. They had not even found the handkerchief that was near the door. But who exactly did it belong to? “Hello. Are you the son of the owners of this place?" Jake heard a middle aged woman say as she came into the restaurant. Standing up from his chair, Jake nodded his head slowly wondering what she wanted. She didn't look like anyone dangerous since ehe was dressed in a corporate outfit. “Yes, I am their son. Jake Moss. Who are you?" Jake asked as he used his arm to clean his face. “ I am from the bank. Your parents are now gone therefore you should vacate this place as soon as possible.” Jake heard the middle aged woman say. “ What do you mean by that? This place belongs to my parents." Jake argued. " No. It belongs to Abraham Fisher. This building is a property of the Fisher family therefore you should leave as soon as

AN IMPORTANT WILL
Watching the Fisher family lawyer move away to call someone, Jake drew closer to meet Alexa whispering in her ear. “ Are you sure this will work?" Jake asked watching as she turned to look at him. Her cute little smile was enchanting as she looked at him for a brief second. For the first time since they had come here, he noticed what she was wearing. A short leather skirt with a matching black leather jacket and a white crop top shirt inside. Her leather boots were long reaching up to her knees but it didn't cover her beautiful slim thighs that looked so glossy and perfect. He was already imagining himself doing all sort of crazy things to her as he held her thighs up. “ This isn't good.” Jake muttered under his breath as he turned away. “ Did you say something?” Alexa asked immediately making him stunned. “ Nope. I didn't say anything. Did you hear something?” Jake asked trying hard to cover things up. Just then, the Fisher family lawyer returned back looking at the two of them

SECRETS
Few weeks later, Jake came out of the cab looking at one of the biggest courthouses in the state. Many influencial judges had been assigned to that courthouse therefore making the place very famous. Looking at the courthouse, Jake couldn't help but feel worried as he watched many people come out of it. Some of them had smiles on their faces while others were crying. What exactly was going to be his fate today? “ The court will be taking the two deeds for examination. You will get a result next week. Case dismissed." Jake heard the male judge say as he hit his little hammer on the table before leaving. Looking at Alexa, Jake shook his head smiling. This was why she had been so confident before. “ I didn't know you were a lawyer. Is this why you were adamant about us meeting in the court? No wonder." Abraham said as he giggled looking at Alexa but she didn't seem fazed at all. “ Don't worry, Mr. Fisher. The court now has both the deeds to the restaurant. I suggest that you yield. Th

UNEXPECTED DEATH
“What are you doing here? Where have you been?" Jake asked Alexa as he looked at her. “ What are you doing here? Do you have a guest?" Alexa asked as she stood in front of the door looking behind Jake. She already guessed there was someone inside. She wouldn't have gotten the message if the person didn't want her to catch Jake together with her. She just wanted to know who it was. “ Now is not the right time. Maybe you should co-" Jake said cut off as Alexa pushed him entering inside. “ Hello dear sister." Scarlett said as she waved her hand smiling at Alexa. The air in the room seemed to have become hot all of a sudden. Following behind Alexa, Jake paused as he watched the interaction between the two sisters. He had no idea how she had gotten to his room but he had no explanation to give Alexa either. The Franco children were all fighting over the inheritance of their father. Since he had already sided with Alexa, he did it want her thinking that he had betrayed her. “ Listen,

UNKNOWN KILLER
“What do you mean something to hide? I have an appointment. That's why I am asking." Keira said as she cleared her throat awkwardly. Despite the fact she was acting suspicious, all her siblings knew that she couldn't be the one. She was too dumb to do such a thing. “ Miss Zac Franco Junior, please tell me where you were last night?" Jake heard the police officer ask as he questioned the first member of the Franco family. “ I was in London. You can ask my roommate. I was in the dorm all day and decided to go out partying in the night. My name even got caught up for a brief moment on the news. I heard about it this morning and flew down here immediately." Jake heard Scarlett's brother say as he brought out his phone showing the police officer. Watching the police officer gaze at the phone, Jake couldn't tell if the police officer had caught him lying or not. His godfather had once talked about the young boy he had given his name too. Zac was a was a young boy that you'd call the part

THE INHERITANCE
After the interrogation of all his godfather's children, Jake finally returned back with Alexa. He was already feeling guilty about what had happened in the morning and he could see that she wasn't mentally stable to be alone. Arriving at her house, Jake parked Alexa's car which he had driven and helped her out. Unlike the houses of the other children, Jake realized that she had been living in a normal bungalow house that looked very cozy. “ This is where you live?" Jake asked as he looked around the living room that looked a little bit more spacious than he had imagined. Although it had plain, Jake noticed that it had been designed with luxurious items in little details that won't easily be noticed such as the huge gold chandelier that hung from the roof in the middle of the parlor, the jade vase that was on the middle table and other things. In conclusion, Alexa was indeed not like the others. “ You already know. I am just a low life illegitimate daughter. All my life, I was bull

INHERITANCE (2)
The shocked expression on faces around him suddenly made Jake feel something was wrong. Why would his godfather give him a house that was worth so much? This would automatically make him a target. “Are you sure that the house was really given to me? Is that what my godfather said?” Jake asked as he looked at the lawyer. “ Yes. It's written in bold letters in the will. Okay, I am done with my work here. I will get going." The lawyer said as he got up about to leave when Ashton stood up. “ Does this make sense? We are his children. Does he feel that it is only Scarlett and Alexa he wronged all through his life? What about us too? What about me and Zac? Was she not also our mother?” Ashton asked. “ Enough. There is no need for this to cause a discord among us. I can transfer my shares between you and Zac. I still have the shares in our mother's company. I can also give those to you. You are my brother. You should know that there is nothing I won't give to you.” Jake heard Scarlett sa

THE FRANCO MANSION
Grabbing his daughter into his arms, Jake patted her head as he hugged her. His daughter crying in front of him was the worst punishment anyone could give him and he didn't like it. “Juliet, where is your mother? Did you come alone?” Jake asked as he looked at his daughter's face helping her clean her tears off. “ I ran away from school. Is it true? You are going to marry another woman and then, our family won't be complete? Grandfather said he was going to send me off to an orphanage if you didn't come back." Jake heard Juliet say making him scoff as he looked at her. It was a monstrous thing to do. The fact that Abraham told such a thing to an 11 year old girl made his heart break from the cruelty. It was okay if they didn't like him. He had always discriminated against him and that was fine. He was able to bear it all. But his own granddaughter. How could he be so cruel to his own granddaughter? “ Did you say you came alone? Let's go. Let's go, princess." Jake said as he held h

THE FRANCO MANSION (2)
Heading over to Alexa, Jake took her hand pulling her behind him. “Enough. I think this house is enough for all of us to live in. It shouldn't be a problem as long as we don't cross parts with each other." Jake said making Scarlett laugh. " Fine. Alexa can stay ” Scarlett said as she opened her phone doing something. " What are you doing? What the hell are you doing?” Alexa asked walking over to Scarlett to try and grab her phone. Unfortunately Scarlett was faster. “ What does it look like I am doing? Calling the police. I think they would be happy to know what your brother did. Have you forgotten? What? You thought that because your boyfriend suddenly has the house, you can come back? The only time you can return back to this house is when one of us is dead. Do you hear me? Dead!” Scarlett said screaming before she continued to tap her phone. Watching Alexa fall to her knees, Jake stepped forward suprised. Scarlett had something on Alexa's brother? What was it? It had to be some
