After the anniversary, Harry told Debby that her punishment would not only be cooking for the house alone but that she would now be cleaning the house as well. Debby dared not challenge him as she was scared he might stop her from seeing her son. She was outside the mansion, by the pool side taking out the trash, when Abbie once again stepped up to her. "I guess everyone needs to hide their things now because of thieves like yourself." She mocked.

"Tam not a thief. I know you were the one who set me up. You wanted to ruin my image before everyone. Ill soon bite you where it hurts, just watch," Debby threatened. Abbie giggled evily, realizing that Debby was able to guess rightly that she was the one who set her up.

"I don't know what you are talking about, Debby. All I know is that you were caught stealing a necklace. I wonder what Fred would think about his mother, when he grows up and realize his mother is a thief." Debby couldn't hold it any longer and sent a slap across Edna's face, leaving the latter in shock bewilderment. "You can come for me all you want but always keep my son out of your mouth.*

"The last thing you would ever do is talk about my son." Debby reiterated.

Edna was pissed. She couldn't react and thought of something quick to draw Harry's attention. She suddenly stared at the pool behind then and jumped into it yelling for Harry to save her.

Harry, who had heard her voice rushed out of the mansion, over to the poo! and dived into the it at once. In a jiffy, he had pulled her out.

"Are you alright?" He asked, cleaning her face up.

"T ám fine. For a moment I thought I was going to die." She said.

*What happened?* Harry asked gently, looking at her face softly.

"I was trying to let her know that her act today was totally wrong and shouldn t be done again but she unexpectedly slapped me and pushed me inside the pool, telling me to go and die. Harry looked at Debby, who was totally shocked by her.

"What is wrong with you? When did you become this evil?" Harry asked staring at Debby with disdain. "It has become clear to me that you need to be seriously punished. Which is why I am going to take Fred away from you.

Debby dropped to her knees immediately to beg, but Harry refused to listen as he carried Abbie up in bridal style and left the place.

Debby was in pains. Her son was the only person that made her keep fighting to stay alive. Being taken away from her son was most definitely going to damage her completely.

Later that night, Harry couldn't sleep. His night had been filled with dreams of himself and Debby in their younger days. His promise to Debby to marry her and also to love her unconditionally kept on playing in his mind. 2

Harry got up from bed and began to walk up to the kitchen to get himself a bottle of wine. The moment he stepped into the kitchen, he saw Debby sitting on the floor, sobbing. Harry felt touched by her tears and moved to sit with her. He didn't know why he felt empathy towards Debby at that moment, but he pulled her closer to himself and she sobbed in his arms.

1 have always had hope that someday, you and I would live a comfortable life, Debby, a life where we both respect and love ourselves. It's funny how life can be Debby. You gave me reasons to believe that people actually change." Harry said. It was hard for him to forget that Debby actually tried to kill his grandfather. In the surveillance camera, she was literally holding his father's neck tightly and choking him. Won't it be in sane for him to fall in love with that type of a woman?

Debby raised her head from his laps and stared Into his eyes.

I gave you reasons to believe people change?" She didnt know where she found the courage to speak. "You were the one who changed, Despite all my plea about not being your father s killer, you still went ahead and punished me. You chose to believe Abbie over

me.

-That is because she helped Lord Vernon came back to life. Abbie is someone! will always respect for what she did for me. I thought I lost my grandfather when you tried to kill him." Harry replied back.

"I didn't try to kill Lord Vernon. I wouldn't even think of it. I have always been a good person and have tried to let you see that repeatedly yt you won't." She added, 'sometimes we may see things wrongly. Debby defended herself.

"I guess you never thought about the fact that someone may be setting me up. It is always about what you think is true. Have you ever thought about making further Investigation as to who did the act? Have you thought for a second, maybe I didn't do it? You just threw the blame on me." Debby tried to get up but Harry got up alongside her.

She made an attempt to leave, but Harry stood in her way. He couldn't explain the underlying emotions he was begining to feel at that moment.

He threw her hair backwards and leaned closer to capture her lips in a kiss. At first, Debby didn't respond, but as the kiss lingered, she kissed him back. The moment was filled with two conflicting emotions summed up in one place. The breath they shared while engaging in the kiss was filled with passion.

Debby quickly pulled away from the kiss as she realized that the hidden feelings she had for Harry was making her helpless. This man had tortured her greatly, how could he easily forgive her? Harry on the other hand didn't try to kiss her again. But the video was a crystal clear evidence that she attempted to murder his grandfather. He sighed; Debby was once his childhood lover whom he promised love and care; he had already betrayed his words multiple times, but is that his fault? Sometimes the future doesn't work out the way we plan it.

The next day. Abbie was welching Needs when she received a call from an anonymous number. "Who is this? She asked.

Don't, say you don't recognize my voice, sweetheart. The familiar voice spoke.

I am sorry, but you got the wrong number. Abbie replied.

Come on now darling, I am totally aware about everything. Your mother told me about the whole surgery stuff, so you don't have to lie." The man stated.

Abbie hesitated for a moment, thinking whether or not to break her act up.! am outside Harry's mansion, how about you come out and let's talk. Abbie stood up and looked through the window and realize a car was parked outside indeed.

She fixed her hair and stepped out of the living room. She was a bit nervous.

Whom could this person be? The soldiers moved away as she made her way out of the mansion and towards where the car parked. Once she got beside the car, the tinted window lowered and she caught side of the person.

"Such a long time Edna. I guess change they say is constant." He said with a smirk on his face.

*When did you come out of prison?" Edna asked in shock, there is no point hiding her identity anymore.

*A couple of weeks ago. I was one of those who luckily got released on merit.

*The man explained. Edna nodded her head. "Anyways let me get to the point.* He said facing Edna fully.

Tam not here because of you, I am here for something much more important. I came because I figured I want Debby back Into my life.* He explained. I still can't get over the fact that she is with Harry. Seeing that you are also interested in Harry, how about we make a deal, You bring me Debby and you have Harry fully to yourself.*

Edna thought through about his offer. This was exactly what she had always wanted; a way for Debby to be out of Harry s life for good. What better way to let it happen than this?

You have yourself a deal. However, how are we going to go about it?" Edna

asked. quite confused about that part.

"You don't have to worry about that, I have it all figured out. All I want from you is to act in accordance with my plan and just watch things unfold for themselves." Edna smiled at his statement. She couldn't wait for Debby to be out of Harry s life for good. Meanwhile, Harry had just finished a meeting with the board of directors.

When he stepped back to his office to check some important portfolios. He got a call from a strange number and picked up.

"Who is this?" He asked, upon hearing series of sobs at the background.

"Its Debby." Debby revealed, trying to clean up her tears and speak properly.

"What is happening and why are you crying?* Harry asked, getting intrigued.

"Fred has been kidnapped!" She broke down once again in tears, while Harry froze on phone upon hearing the news.

Tam on my way." He said and hung up.
