Chapter 108 - CHAPTER 107

"She died in a car accident," said Joseph.

"That's true. But the car accident was planned" said Katrina.

"Oh god," said Cindy and Julia held Cindy's shoulders to comfort her.

"Why would Harry do that?" Asked Ermanno.

"How about you ask the culprit himself," said Remy.

Then all saw Ivanov bring Harry in the room with Joshua.

"Harry, I thought you were my friend. What's going on here?" Asked Ermanno.

"I am sorry. I got greedy" cried Harry and continued "you spent money like water on Sofia. And all she had to do was take you to her home so that you could spend time with Rose. It was a weird man. Seeing you play with Rose. So I planned to blackmail you by taking pictures of you getting too close to Rose. But all you did was basically babysit her. So I told Sofia to give you a bit of ecstasy drug mixed in beer or something. So when you were alone with Rose you started getting aroused around her. You got some good control cause I really wanted you to r.a.p.e her or something but every time you got too aroused you would f.u.c.k Sofia hard. But we did manage to get some footage and blackmailed you for a while and I made good cash. But after we lost the pics and videos Sofia started backing off of being with you. She would be with me and tell you that she was with Rose. You were keeping your distance with Rose so she would lie to you often about being with Rose." 

"What happened the day of the accident?" Asked Elisio.

"She came to me and told me she was going to come clean to Ermanno and leave all of what happened behind and start a new life with her baby," said Harry.

Rose looked at Harry and said, "so you were the father of her child that she went to meet?" 

Everyone looked at Rose and Ermanno went close to her and asked: "what did you say?" 

Rose looked at Ermanno and said "she was pregnant but not with your child that time. Before the accident,, she told me that she loved someone else and was having his child and would meet him first before meeting you. So if she met Harry that means he was the father" 

Ermanno looked at Harry and asked him the truth. 

Harry looked away and nodded.

Everyone stood in silence for a minute and then Elisio asked: "so what happened when she told you that she was coming clean?" 

"I panicked. I got scared. I didn't want to go to jail for blackmailing" said Harry.

"But you will go to jail for murder," said Joshua and continued "you meddled with Sofia's breaks and she drove off and crashed and died"

"I am sorry. I am sorry" cried, Harry.

"Sorry will not bring back my sister" said Thomas and started punching Harry. 

EJ, Julius and Joshua pulled Thomas away from Harry and the officer present took Harry away and would charge him for murder.

Ermanno looked at Rose and asked, "so it was not my child?" 

"Not the one died with her," said Rose.

"What do you mean?" Asked Ermanno.

"I want to meet my son. Feed him and then I'll tell you" said Rose.

"You are in no position to make deals girl and we know what you are talking about," said Elisio.

Rose looked at Elisio and Elisio looked at Katrina.

"I went through Sofia's medical history. She was pregnant before too but she aborted the child." Said Katrina. 

Ermanno looked at Rose and asked "was that my child?" 

Rose had tears in her eyes and said "please don't hate her. Before she died she told me that she had aborted your child. And when the guy she was in love, which seems now like it was Harry came to know about it, he got her pregnant again. She felt stuck and wanted to come clean and start a life away from everyone including you, Harry and my parents."

"All of this is such a mess. Oh god," said Joseph holding his chest.

"Ermanno please let me see Xavier. Please." Begged Rose.

"You will not see him anytime soon girl," said Elisio and held Ermanno's shoulder and told him to back away and let him handle the rest.

"I am sorry Rose. But I want everything out and clear. No more secrets. No more lies. No schemes. No more nothing. I am done with everything. You all have played me enough. I am done" said Ermanno and moved away.

"Now, for the last event of the day. You see Rose you may have to be staying in jail for a long time. But I can help you get less time if you sign the divorce papers" said Elisio.

Rose looked at Ermanno and he looked away from Rose.

Rose looked back at Elisio and said "okay. I will divorce Ermanno but I want custody of my baby" 

"Ha. Dream on it. There is no way you will ever come close to my grandson." Said Elisio.

"Please. Please. I beg of you. Don't take my child away from me" cried, Rose.

Elisio looked at Rose and said "it's an easy win for us when it will come to fight over custody for Xavier and you know that too. But I will let you see him once if you sign the divorce papers" 

Rose looked at Ermanno begging him with her eyes. 

Ermanno had tears too in his eyes looking at Rose but didn't come forward to say anything. 

Rose cried and looked around the room for someone to help her.

Thomas went close to Rose and said "sign the papers and I promise I'll fight for you" 

Rose looked at Thomas and nodded and agreed to divorce Ermanno.

An officer opened her handcuffs and the lawyer gave her papers to sign. 

Rose was crying uncontrollably and looking at Ermanno.

"Ermanno" called Rose.

Ermanno couldn't look at Rose anymore and turned his back on her and hugged Enrique tight.

Rose begged Ermanno to look at her but he didn't turn.

Rose stopped calling him and looked at Elisio.

She then looked at the papers and then looked back at Elisio and said "I'll sign off all the property I have of Ermanno back to him. I don't want anything just don't make me sign divorce papers."

"When you sign this you will be returning everything to Ermanno and divorcing him and giving him full custody of Xavier. In exchange, Ermanno will give you 10 million dollars." Said Elisio.

"I don't what the money. Keep everything. Just give shared custody at least. Please.. please don't let me be alone again" cried Rose and looked at Sabrina and said "mummy I am sorry. Please tell Mr Devonte to give me my child. Please, mummy. He listens to you. Please" 

Sabrina was crying uncontrollably already. Sabrina looked at Elisio with pleading eyes but Elisio was determined to have what he wanted.

Sabrina looked down and cried hugging Ambryl.

Rose saw that no one would help her.

She looked back at the papers and signed them and cried even harder.
