Everyone gathered in the Alvaro living room were astonished as they watched the black-haired man blabber all he wanted about Diego being his son, according to him, Sia ran away with the baby all because he was a poor man
“Madam I’m a desperate man who wants his wife and child baby, this woman”the man said and turned to Sia who had a blank expression on her not sure what to do, but she scanned the man in front of her and frowned, he was well-dressed, although he went for craggy poor people’s clothing she still noticed his behavior and knew he wasn’t who he claimed to be. With cat like eyes she glanced at Emiliano only to find him seated in the couch with his legs crossed in a bossy manner while scrolling on his phone like he wasn’t a part of the show going on, her eyes narrowed shrewdly as she looked back at the man just as Emiliano looked up and smirked evilly and secretly applauded Watson for his perfect timing and of course super acting
* Flashback*
“So you want me to pretend to he some crazy’s woman’s husband?” Watson had asked Emiliano who nodded and Angelo who was busy playing with his glass of whiskey mouthed a silent ‘Bingo’
“Exactly, she’s a little cunning and won’t go away so, I want you to put on a show for mom and granny”Emiliano said without a care and took his glass, Watson sat in silent as he stroked his chin, thinking about what he was about to indulge himself in but just then Angelo spoke
“Millions are involved”Angelo said and Watson smirked
“Done, just tell me when”
“Tomorrow”Emiliano said plainly but Watson didn’t say more as he raised his glass in the air
“It’s fine, rest assured”saying that he and Angelo clicked glasses while Emiliano coldly narrowed his eyes imagining the shocking scene which would ruin that crazy woman and get rid of her forever.
*End of Flash*
“Tell me, who sent you huh, how do we know you are not lying”this time Carmen stepped forward and asked Watson who dropped to his knees and folded his arms in begging form
“Madam, I’m not so greedy, I love my wife and child very much but my… my wife wasn’t satisfied with me, she told me that she didn’t want a poor man that was why she came here to frame your son”Watson cried even more such that everyone present felt pity for him, even Lulu and Angie who were standing to the sides holding hands, Vince on the other hand had a surprised but happy face as he watched the show in anticipation, Sia clenched her fist, how could Emiliano do such a despicable thing now ‘what to do what to do’ she thought as she tried to think fast and get out of the tough situation, she was certain that if the man continued his bickering then the entire Alvaro family would believe his shabby lies
“Do you know the consequences of barging in my house and make such a baseless accusation”the old lady spoke for the first time since the charade had started, she had been observing everything and everyone as they voiced their opinion, Emiliano got his grandma’s attention as he set down his phone, he forgot all about his cunning grandma because if his grandma believed Watson’s little show then Sia would be thrown out without mercy
“Granny, you are a woman of justice, this… my wife… my child, please let me take them”Watson said desperately because he was waiting for the old lady to speak, but she was just watching which concerned him at best
“Mother, if this man is her husband, then let him take her, she has deceived all of us”Vince chimed in and Watson nodded while Carmen got desperate as she held little Diego even more close to her, she felt close to the little boy and didn’t want anyone to take him away, but the situation was something else
“Sia do you know this man?”the old lady turned to Sia who was quiet and with a startled expression, Sia looked up and blinked several times, what could she say ‘what a dilemma she was in’
“I said speak!”the old lady yelled scaring everyone around as they flinched in fearing hearing her angry voice which carried authority to it
“Well… well, he’s right”Sia said nervous and everyone except for Emiliano and Watson widened their eyes in shock, at least Emiliano wasn’t shocked because she admitted the truth but how could Sia just admit it like that, as expected, Sia did not stop there as she stepped forward
“Granny yes I know this man… but… but not what you think”she said and stole a glance at Emiliano and smirked at him then continued “this man is a great man, my Sally”she said dramatically
“Sally, what kind of name is that?” Carmen asked with a frown and a surprised Watson looked at Sia wondering what was happening or what she was doing and most importantly why she called him Sally ‘a darn girl’s name’ he thought
“Well it’s what I call him, he’s my hero, the man who was there for me when I was pregnant”she started and when she noticed everyone were paying attention to her, she smirked inwardly and walked to Watson, resting her hand on his shoulder, to everyone it looked gentle, but only Watson knew the kind of agony he was going through, the darn woman was gripping his flesh tightly not just that, but she was digging her sharp long nails deep in his flesh causing excruciating pain
“When I was in pain, he was there as a friend, he made sure I was alright, granny this man here acted selfless, even though he knew that baby wasn’t his, he still took care of me until it was born but…”this time tears fell down her cheeks as she increased the pressure on Watson’s shoulder, he could feel as if his arm was going to fall off any time soon however that didn’t surprise him more than the fact that she easily turned the tables on him
“What?” Carmen gasped and Emiliano clenched his fist, hating Sia even more, Vince had the same feeling while lulu and Angie were awfully astounded
“Yes mom, he became obsessed with me and Diego, he went crazy and told everyone that I was his wife and that…that Diego was his son”with that she left Watson’s shoulder and went to stand before the old lady, Watson breathed deeply as he tried to lift his right arm, but it seemed lifeless, he couldn’t say anything
“Then what happened?”Carmen who was more interested in the story asked with pure amusement
“I… I called a head doctor, and he told me the man had lost it, so we took him to rehab… but I think he had escaped now… sobs… sobs… hiccups… he will hurt my poor son”Sia shed crocodile tears and the old lady put her hand gently on her shoulder
“It’s okay dear, I’ll see to it that he’s taken to the rehab once more”the old lady made her decision and turned to Watson who shrunk deep on the floor, if he knew his little lie would land him into such a mess, he should have said no to Emiliano and Angelo’s crazy plan
“Yes mom, poor man, I feel so sorry”Carmen said and looked at Watson pitifully,
“Security”the old lady called out and two men in black rushed in, and immediately they were issued an order to drag the man out, Watson was still trying to process what just happened, the woman turned out to be more cunning and shrewd
“I’m not lying, that woman is busy deceiving you, hear me!”he continued saying until he was fully dragged out of the living room and peace reigned again
“I wonder how crazy he is, Sia you should get some rest, don’t mind what happened here”Carmen turned to Sia and said softly, Sia nodded and unexpectedly hugged the old lady who was confused but went with the floor
“Get some rest child”she murmured and Sia wiped her fake tears and looked up at everyone, from Vince then her eyes landed on the man burning with rage, she could feel the heat from where she was but who cared,
(“That angry Hyena thought he could ruin me but he should know when to mess with Sia, dream on Emiliano”Sia thought as her eyes scanned Emiliano, a smirk tagged at the corners of her lips making emiliano even more angry but not to worry he lost this round but sooner or later he was going to succeed
“You little cunning Fox won this time, but get ready for more from my side, you will regret this’ ‘Emiliano thought as his face darkened and both dropped their piercing gaze from each other).
