CHAPTER 125: A FUTURE AT LAST.
Three years after thier wedding, Emma and Gideon welcomed a set of female twins after Philip who is now two years old. They named the girls Pearl and Catherine after their grand mothers. The new babies were the most adorable set of twins and their full hair made them look like little goddesses. Their cheeks were beautified with dimples and they were the perfect little girls anyone could wished for.
Philip was always hovering around the three months old twins and Emma and Gideon always admired thier bond affirming how Philip will be a good big brother. Whenever, the twins, broke out crying, Philip will run to his mother and pull her by the dress to the babies cradle. Gideon will always tell Emma how their twins looked like her and how he can’t wait to see them grow to be as beautiful as their mother.
On weekends, Gideon took Philip to the park, kids shows and flew him to Disney land once in a while. With their striking resemblance, the father and son always wore matching outfits when stepping out and people adored them.
Mel was later apprehended in an airport while trying to leave the country. He was arrested, tried in court and found guilty. He confessed to collaborating with WIlliam and Judy in carrying out their evil acts. Mel was later discovered as William’s distant cousin who had been working for the Romero’s as a driver with the aim of aiding his brother to achieve his plot.
The strange man Judy had always been meeting with was William. Their plot was for Judy to seduce Gideon, marry him and help William take over the business. Just like Judy was obsessed with Gideon, William had always been obsessed with Emmalia.
Frankie Gideon’s chef was made a part of the family and Ryan loves him because he made local sweets and snacks for him. Gideon and Emma later hired a new driver who replaced Mel.
Emma carved a library inside her home and stocked it with different genres of books. She took out time to read and can’t wait for her children to grow up so she could introduce them to literature. She took her writings seriously and published lots of content as time went by. She also worked on her garden, planted new flowers and the place was as beautiful as it once was.
The LIA_ROMERO’S bars expanded it’s reach and established branches across the city. They also established new bars in other countries and had been attracting new customer, partners and investors. Their chain of bars flourished and they acquired lots of assets.
Gideon and Emma started a foundation which they called THE LIA-ROMERO FOUNDATION which is aimed at sponsoring orphan children in school. They also partner with non-governmental organizations and fund essential projects across New York city.
Once a while, the family planned vacations and travel to prominent cities where they relax in expensive suites and islands having a good family time. Catherine Romero and Pearl went shopping once in a while and in Emma’s father, Gideon found another father.
Sometimes, Philip was sent to his grandparent’s home for weekends. Emma and Gideon’s home is always filled with bliss, laughter and they were living hapilly with their three children, surrounded by supportive grand parents and faithful domestic staff.
Ellie, Emma’s friend from Chicago was made the general manger of one of the LIA-ROMERO’S BARS established in Chicago.
Judy and William were sentenced to life in prison according to the law after being tried and found guilty in court. In prison, Judy was being bullied consistently. A certain group of women formed a gang and tortured her. The group leader of the gang that tortures Judy in prison made her clean their cell rooms, wash their clothes and sometimes took away her meals. They were making her life miserable.
Judy’s mother showed up during visiting days in the prison but Judy never agreed to see her: not even once. Her mother will weep and go away. Judy was feeling ashamed and guilty so she couldn’t bring herself to face her mother.
Before going to bed on most nights, Judy will recollect her sessions with Dr. Mathew and wished she heeded to his advise of letting things go. If only she knew: she always thought. Judy came to the realization that being obsessed with certain things and trying to claim them is a terrible decision. Her pillow was always soaked with tears of regret.
William on the other hand wasn’t finding life easy in his prison. Just like Judy, he was having a though time. One time, the prisoners had a riot and William almost lost his life. He was beaten mercilessly and was taken to a hospital. His left leg was broken and after it was fixed and he got discharged, he was sent back to the prison to wallow in his misery.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Will always pondered about his life when he was a free man. He knew he made a terrible mistake by allowing greed to blind him. He knew he was better off as a delivery man than he was now. He wishes he didn’t meet Judy in the first place. He came to the conclusion that love can not be force and he was better as Emma’s friend than he was now.
Unlike Judy whose mother visited once in a while, no one came for Will. When his family members heard what he did to Emma, they abandoned him concluding that he was a dissapointment to them. They were infruriated with the fact that Will kidnapped his childhood friend Emma, caused her separation with her husband a long time ago and tried to steal her husband’s company. As far as they were concerned, Will remains a disgrace to them.
Sam and Natalie were blessed with a daughter whom they called Marylin. They were living happily. With Natalie’s newly acquired expertise in business management, she and Sam were doing exploits with their business in Australia. Mike had forgiven Sam and they became cool brother in-laws.
