Nag mamaneho si Brian pauwi sa bahay nila Ellaine nang biglang napansin niyang may sumusunod sakanyang white van mukang paparazzi ito.
"Bwiset!!" Inis niyang sabi. Tinabi niya agad ang sasakyan at tsaka bumaba, tama siya may camera man at mga reports na agad bumaba sa white Van nang makita nila si Brian.
"Dr. Tan! Are you here to go back to Ms. Carmella Steinmetz? Did you come back for her?" The reporter asked. Brian immediately answered.
"I didn't come back for her, I'm just on vacation here, don't follow me because you won't gain anything!!" Sigaw nito tsaka pumasok sa loob ng sasakyan.
"Dr. Tan. Just i quick interview!!" As the reporters called out to him from the side of his car, he chose to ignore them and swiftly drove off without looking back.
Upon arriving home, he realized that the situation was worse than he had anticipated. "She is mine! Brian and Fyorie are mine!" Carmella shouted at Ellaine, her voice filled with possessiveness and anger.
"You don't own them, they're not yours!" Ellaine shouted back defiantly.
"Mommy, who is she? What's happening?" the child cried as she sought refuge behind Ellaine.
Agad bumaba nang sasakyan si Brian nang makita niya ang dalawa, "What is it again, Carmella!? When will you ever stop!"
"Brian... I'm glad you're here. That woman, she's the one who took away our daughter..." nanlaki ang mga mata ni Brian nang marinig ito.
"My friend, Detective Vladimir Schuster, has discovered the identity of that woman, and all the evidence points to Ms. Salvador. That woman is you, isn't it? You're Ellaine Salvador!" Carmella's angry accusation pierced the air with a fiery intensity.
"Mr. Tan, it was Ms. Salvador who truly took Fyorie and the child who matched your DNA wasn't actually Fyorie. It was our secret to obtain a DNA sample from the remains of that child, and it didn't match to Ms. Steinmetz. We also attempted to get a DNA sample from Hannah's older sister, Lysandra Blytheville, and they were a match. This only means one thing! Hannah was the child who died in the accident, not Fyorie!" the detective beside Carmella explained.
"Br-Brian...!" Ellaine weakly uttered as she hugged Gabriella tightly, trying to protect her from Carmella, Brian immediately hugged her. "Shhh... don't worry.. it's okay everything will be okay," he said while embracing Ellaine.
"Brian, what are you doing! That woman stole our daughter."
Brian slowly released his tight hug on Ellaine and then faced Carmella. "You don't have a child, you lost it when you neglected her, when you deceived me!" Brian said angrily.
"W-what? Aren't you angry at that woman? Brian, she stole our child, she's the reason why our happy family fell apart!" Carmella said.
"She didn't steal Fyorie, she saved your daughter's life so you should be grateful if you really care about Fyorie, and besides, she's not the reason why the happy family you're talking about fell apart, it's your deceit!"
"Brian! You know about this? Wh-why? I also mourned, I regretted, isn't that enough? Isn't it enough that I almost went crazy when our daughter died and when you filed for divorce?"
"Isn't it also enough that you fulfilled your dream? You're rich, even more than before, you're a billionaire, you're the most successful actress and model in Germany, you're known almost all over the world, isn't it enough that I'm the bad one in the eyes of your fans, isn't it enough that I let you tarnish my name," Brian said firmly.
"Brian, yes, my career as an actress and model was successful, but that's not enough because you are important to me! You and
Fy-"
"Carmella, stop now because if you take any action against me or Ellaine, I won't hesitate to bring you down, I'm ready to help the person who ruined their family and life because of your promiscuity!" Brian said angrily.
"Mr. Tan, you must be aware that she has legal rights to the child," the detective emphasized firmly.
"She has no right, Mr. Vladimir Schuster! If you insist on that, I will be forced to speak to the media, you know it will ruin your name and reputation, Carmella, and the same goes for you, Mr. Schuster!" He said seriously, then he carried Gabriella and held Ellaine's hand to enter their house.
"Give me back my child!! FYORIE!" she cried out, but the detective held her back to prevent any impulsive actions.
"Ms. Steinmetz, he's right, your reputation will be ruined and you won't be able to be with your child once that happens! J-Joana- we both know that woman, she's quiet, and a quiet person is more terrifying than a demon, she will tarnish your name and so will I. Once she takes action against you."
"Vladimir, are you afraid? What, will I simply let go of what should rightfully be mine?"
"Carmell-"
"I won't stop until I get back what belongs to me!" Carmella insisted before turning and leaving.
"Y-yeah... Gabriella, I'm not your real mother! I'm not the woman who gave birth to you... I'm... i am really.. really sorry...." Ellaine explained as she knelt down due to the pain she was feeling.
"Mommy! Please don't cry, remember I promised I won't get mad at you, Remember daddy Jordan, he's the one who taught me not to break promises and I hate broken Promises, and I hope you promised too that you won't leave me, you'll always be there and love me... so please don't cry... because the truth is, I'm thankful, because of you, I'm with my real daddy now... and you, you're my only mommy... don't think that I'll choose her, I also promised grandma that I'll be ready and brave because I'm following in your footsteps and she accepted even I'm not her real grand-daughter... Mommy, I hate broken Promises...!" Ellaine cried even more upon hearing this.
"Gabriella..." tawag naman ni Brian,
"I will not let them take you away from us! I promise that!" He said,
"Thank you for always being understanding and open-minded, forgive me for taking you my love... I'm sorry... anak," Ellaine said while keeping her hands on her child's body.
Gabriella just tapping Ellaine's back to comfort her mother.
