Still at the hospital…
Rose: Kelvin?
Kelvin: Yes it’s me baby, it’s been so long.
Nigel: What’s this Rose? Who’s this jerk?
Rose is a little shaking and scared in between the two men. They both look like they’re gonna devour each other anytime soon.
Rose: He’s… He’s my ex before I married you.
Nigel looked at him with so much hatred in his eyes.
Nigel: What do you want with my wife?
Kelvin: (Laughs) Calm down lover boy. I’m not here for you but for the love of my life Rose.
Rose: Stop calling me that Kelvin. I don’t belong to you and I don’t love you. Not after you conspired with my father to ruin me.
Kelvin: Come on baby… That was long ago and I’m very sorry so just let it go and let’s be together again.
Rose: I can only forgive you if you tell Nigel the whole truth.
Kelvin: That’s not hard. Listen lover boy, it’s true that she did marry you for your properties.
Rose: Kelvin!
Kelvin: Relax baby I’m not done yet. She agreed but I never wanted her to go. She promised never to leave me. But then she had to get pregnant and fall for you, so I was angry. Her father came at the right time, we twisted the plan.
Originally she was supposed to dupe you but she changed as soon as she married you.
Nigel couldn’t believe his ears, his anger was coming back again.
Nigel: Are you saying Fred has something to do with this?
Kelvin:That man planned everything. He won’t stop until he sees you down, you should better watch your wife well. I’ve said enough. I’ll be back baby. Just wanted you to know I’m around.
He winked at her and left, Nigel just stood there feeling numb. All these discoveries today, Rose felt relieved that at least he knows the whole truth.
Angel started crying, she quickly carried and comforted him.
Rose: Awwwn don’t cry my love. Mummy’s here for you baby, you know I love you very much my angel.
Nigel: But… what did I ever do to your father Rose? What..don’t remember ever hurting anyone in your family so why me?
Rose: My father is a greedy man, he is just bent on ruining you and I really can’t explain why. All I know is that you need to be careful with everyone.
Cathy barges in.
Cathy: Rose you won’t believe who I just… Oh I didn’t know you’re busy. Sorry. Hi Nigel.
Nigel: Hi.
Cathy: (Snatch’s angel) Ummm… Since the baby is hungry I’ll go get him something. You guys continue (Winks at Rose and leaves)
Rose:But Cathy… Gosh that girl.
Shouldn’t you go be with Selena. She just lost a baby, as a doctor I’ll advise you stay with her.
Nigel: And as you? Do you really want me to be with her?
Rose: No.
Nigel: What
Rose: I’m too selfish so I’d prefer you always be with me. You heard so leave now and stay with her.
Nigel: I’ll come back for you later. You and I need to talk about a lot of things.
(He pecks her lips) Don’t you let that punk or that jerk near you. Take care of my son. (Leaves)
Rose: Thank goodness Kelvin cleared my name. Now I can breathe peacefully but I’m still not happy. How can I be falling for someone that can’t be mine everyday. The more I stay away the more I fall for him. Get out of my head already Nigel.

Things went back to normal as Selena was discharged and she kept acting like she lost a real pregnancy to keep Nigel with her.
Harry is doing everything to make Rose happy and get her to fall in love with him through sincerity and care.
Rose took Angel out to the park since today is her off day while Nigel also came in a bid to make Selena happy not knowing she has other plans.
Rose took Angel on rides and bought ice cream even though he couldn’t take it.
Meanwhile..
Selena: My love, I need to use the restroom. Please wait for me.
Nigel: Sure I’ll be waiting. But don’t stay long.
Selena walked to the other side of the park.
Selena: We’re right there now. Please be careful. Nigel is with me and he can’t suspect anything, this is his son were talking about… Yes I’ll wait here till the job is done so as to avoid more suspicions… Be fast.
Nigel kept waiting for Selena but he didn’t see her so he decided to look for her. But he saw people gathered as a woman screamed. He walked there and found out it was Rose.
He rushed to her.
Nigel: Rose! What’s wrong with you? What are you doing here?
Rose: (Crying) Angel…
Nigel: What happened to Angel? Where’s my son?! Talk to me!
Woman: She’s traumatized sir. A man just snatched her baby and ran away but I don’t think he went far because we already called security and they’ve closed all entrances.
Nigel: How dare he? (he left angrily)
Rose: Nigel please don’t leave me… Help my baby please.
Woman: (Consoling her) please calm down miss, I’m sure your husband and the others will find him.
Nigel kept running and searching everywhere and everyone. He already called the police and most men and security were helping him.

Selena being aware of what is going on called the unknown man.
Selena: That idiot you sent has fucked up. He’s gonna reveal our identity as soon as he’s caught.
You need to do something about him.
Man: I always knew he was not a professional. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of him. We’ll do this another day, for now stay low and avoid trouble.
Selena: Okay, I have to go now.
Nigel continued looking for the idiot until he came across someone in a hoodie with something on his back covered up.
Nigel: Hey you. What’s that on your back?
Guy: What’s it to you?
Nigel goes towards him but he kicks Nigel and ran off.
Nigel: You’re gonna pay for that you bastard..
He runs after the guy until he had nowhere to run to so he stopped and brought out a dagger with Angel in his hands.
Guy: If you come close I will end this Cutie’s life right now.
Nigel: Don’t you dare hurt my son you bastard.
Guy: Try me and see if I won’t kill him…. Shut up brat.
Nigel: What do you want with my son and who sent you?
Guy: You think I’m just gonna answer you loverboy?
Nigel: What’s in it for you? How much did they pay you for all this?
I can pay you ten times more just give me back my son and I’ll let you escape.
Guy: (Laughs) You really think I’m thinking that stupid? If I’m going down everyone is going with me. So I might just tell you that the person who sent me is none other than S…
A gunshot is heard and he falls down while Nigel quickly catches the baby.
He looks back and saw a police officer already shot the guy, he sighed in relief.
Nigel: Thank you so much officer.
Officer: I’m just doing my job Mr Owens.
Nigel: Is he dead?
Officer: No. I shot his arm, he’s gonna be taken to the hospital.
The other officers carry the man out.
Officer: We’re gonna need you at the station sir.
Nigel: Yes. I’ll see you later. Just let me return my son to his mother.
Officer: Yes sir, were sorry for the inconvenience.
Nigel: It’s okay officer, the important thing is that my son is safe now.
Officer: I’ll take my leave first. (Leaves)
Nigel walked back to the crowd and everyone kept watching him and murmuring to themselves.
He went back to Rose who has already called Cathy and is being comforted by her.
Cathy: OMG! Angel! You brought him back Nigel! Thanks a lot, let me hold him. I’ll take him home, you should look at Rose. She’s not feeling well.
He gives the baby to her and squatted in front of Rose who is still shaking.
Nigel: Rose! Look at me Rose! I already got our son back, stop this right now.
Rose!!
She finally fainted. He quickly carried her out totally forgetting he brought Selena. He took her to his car and drove off. Selena saw them and felt so angry.
Selena: He came with me but left with her, I know my main goal is to get his wealth but I’m suddenly getting jealous. Am I really falling for him? No I can’t. I can’t fall for him, boss is going to kill me. But I’m so angry, I hate that woman. I swear I’m going to make her son disappear myself.
TBC…
