What Lies Beyond Chapter 52
At the Quartermaine mansion, Gabriella went to rest in her room and accidentally dropped a photo as she left. Skye saw it and picked it up, immediately recognizing who was in the picture.
At an old house, Maya and Tommy were walking nearby. "The old Bradley Ward house." "Yes, it was an orphanage. It was very popular until someone set it on fire. I remember everyone being upset about it," Tommy said. "Do you know who did it?" "Yes, it was an old mob boss, Damian Smith." "Why did you bring me here? I saw it last time I was in town." "Because I think it's time we bring it back to the town. It could be something other than an orphanage," Tommy replied. "I love that idea, but I don't have the funds for it." "I'm sure we could find them. This whole town adores your grandmother," Maya said. "Yes, they did. Maybe we could bring it back," Maya suggested.
At Lorenzo's, Lorenzo was at home drinking when Skye entered. "Skye, why are you here?" "We need to talk about our daughter. Why was Gabriella at the store?" "I don't know. I went there because she maxed out her credit card. I almost yelled at her. I can tell our relationship has changed." "I feel the same way. Gabriella yelled at Tracy earlier, saying she isn't a Quartermaine, so why should she care about her? And I saw Gabriella looking at something, claiming it was a photo of a fashion dress, but it wasn't. Gabriella was looking up her biological mother," Skye said, showing Lorenzo the picture.
"We are losing our daughter. I can feel it," Skye added. "Lorenzo, I have some information about Gabriella's biological mother," Tea said as she entered the room. "What information do you have?" Skye asked.
"Skye, I didn't know you were here," Tea remarked. "I asked Tea to get information on Juliette in case we need her for a kidney." "Well, she's not going to give us one. Juliette wants us to leave her alone; she doesn't want anything to do with Gabriella. She didn't even care that you kidnapped her." "It wasn't kidnapping," Lorenzo interrupted. "She doesn't care about Gabriella. She could be dying." "No." "What about Gabriella's biological father?" "That's complicated. Gabriella was conceived through rape, which is why Juliette doesn't want her." "No," Skye said, crying a little. "Yes, I'm sorry I wasn't much help."
"So, what do we do? What if none of us is a match for Gabriella's kidney?" Skye asked.
"We will find a kidney for Gabriella. We will not lose her," Lorenzo assured her. "I hope so. Lorenzo, you saved her when she was a baby, and now we have to save her again," Skye said. Lorenzo touched Skye's shoulder.
"We will save her. I still love you, Skye. We could be a family again," Lorenzo said.
"No, we can't. I need to go get Gabriella her favorite tea," Skye replied as she left.
