Lord Ruben’s suite **
“Hi, bro” Betsy smoked as she walked into his room
“Hi, sis,” Ruben replied, mimicking her.
Betsy went to stand beside him.
“I heard about Beauty, your girlfriend,” Betsy muttered, making quotation marks with her two fingers.
“She’s not my girlfriend,” Ruben denied.
“But you did not deny it that day” Betsy pouted.
Ruben let out a sigh, Betsy giggled and sat in his lap.
“Get your big @$$ off my lap, you are no longer a kid” Ruben pouted.
“I know you like her, aren’t you going to help her?” Betsy asked and wrapped her hands around his neck.
“And why should I help her?” He retorted and she pushed his head.
“Ouch” Ruben pouted and rubbed his forehead.
“I know you like her just like Sofia, you should help her, ” Betsy urged.
“Not that I like her, that little witch almost pulled out my hair” Betsy whined and he laughed.
“It’s nice seeing you laugh, you haven’t done that in a long time and it’s all because of her or am I wrong?” Betsy asked, putting her face close to his.
“I don’t know,” he shrugged.
“Dummy” Betsy pushed his head again and he pushed her off his lap to the bed.
“Ash!” She hit his lap
“You are heavy now, you are like my aunt not little sis,” Ruben said, changing the topic.
“Are you trying to say that I am old?” Betsy gasped.
“Yes and your @$$ is big” He mocked.
“Oh really, I have an hourglass shape” Betsy boasted, it made him burst into laughter.
“Hourglass what, you don’t have an hourglass shape, you have a second glass shape” Ruben chucked .
Betsy started hitting him playfully.
“You are a jerk,” Betsy laughed.

Mercedes’s house ***
“Babe, enough!” Mercedes yelled and dragged the tumbler of rum from her hand.
“You’ve been drinking yourself to stupor for that bastard!” Mercedes cautioned, she’s a blonde woman with large blue eyes.
“I’m going to have my revenge on that bastard, I swear it, I’m going to show him that I am a Mexican woman, Milan is going to hell and I will make sure I lead him there” Gianna said and hiccuped .
“Babe move on, you will meet a better person” Mercedes advises but she knows how adamant Gianna is.
“Milan is going to come running back to me, he’s a baby, a weakling and coward, he will come running back and I swear I will ruin him, I gave that bastard almost my whole life, do you know how many abortions, I’ve had?” Gianna sobbed.
“The last time I got pregnant I had to get rid of it, that was to be our third child, he’s going to pay for dumping me, I swear it” Gianna cried loudly.
“Babe, it’s okay” Mercedes muttered and pulled her into a hug.
“Shush,” Mercedes muttered, patting her hair gently.

Black hearts clan **
Late in the evening, Lord Stone called them to the dining table.
“Father, why did you call us?Firstly you didn’t bring my magazines and now you are denying me from my dinner!” Darian ranted and frowned.
“S*x?”
“Betty,you got that right,” Darian chuckled.
“How many times have warned you to-”
“Enough!”
“Father, there is a shipment of drugs tonight, the drug cartel leader is a bit annoyed” Milan said.
“Look at him talking like a leader,” Betsy mocked and rolled her eyes.
” Ivy and I have discussed and I’m going to pass judgement on the person who poisoned Mabel! “Lord Stone announced.
” What!!! “the three men exclaimed.
” This issue doesn’t concern you father, it’s a trival matter, we can take care of it “Darian intervened, scared for Beauty’s life…
” But Fath-”
Lord Stone raised his hand so Ruben would keep quiet.
” My judgement is that the person has to be beheaded by tomorrow night “Lord Stone passed his judgement.
” Beheaded! “Betsy gasped and covered her mouth.
Ivy who sat beside Lord Stone smiled.
” Father, you can’t do that “Ruben yelled.
” And who are you to tell me what not to do or what to do?!” Lord Stone yelled.
“You can’t have her beheaded, I won’t allow it!” Ruben yelled, no one in that dining room could believe he was challenging Lord Stone right now.
“Then be ready to be beheaded with her,” Lord Stone growled.
Their eyes met,Ruben didn’t look away, Lord Sone’s cold and wrathful eyes were on him.
“My judgement is final!” Lord Stone frowned heavily and stormed out of the dining hall.
