Jerome's POV

After I dragged Fabian to my room and closed the door, I leaned against so he couldn't escape.

"How much did you hear, Rutter?" I asked, giving him a death glare.

"I didn't hear anything. What makes you think I did?" he asked nervously. He was such a bad liar.

"For one, I can tell when someone is lying. Two, you won't look me in the eye, and three. I saw you outside the door. So tell me the truth Rutter." I said menacingly.

"Who's Eddie's sister?" Fabian asked. I immiediatly breathed a sigh of relief.

"One, she doesn't even know that he's her brother so there is no way in bloody hell I'm telling you. Two, haven't you realized eavesdropping will only get you in trouble?" I said while leaning my head back against the door.

"Says the guy who's always pranking, blackmailing, and scamming everyone?" he said disapprovingly.

"Not that it's any of your business. But everything I do, I do for one reason. One that you will never understand. But now I can't have you telling anyone what happened. So here's the deal, Rutter. I noticed you like the new girl. But she seems to know a lot about Nina. She seems to know how you ditched her. But of course only you and I know that while you broke up with Nina for Joy, you didn't wait to break up with her to be with Joy. You tell anyone what happened here, Dakota finds out about your little love game. And trust me, you're already on her bad side. You wouldn't want her to find out." After I finished my speech I stormed out of my room to find Mick pulling Mara and Dakota into his room.

What now?

Mick's POV

"What the bloody hell? You killed Nina? How could you? I mean sure she was American but that doesn't mean she deserved to die? And Mara. How could you be friends with a murderer? Did you help her kill Nina? What the hell is going on?" I asked as I paced across the room.

I heard Dakota and Mara talking.

"You have to tell him the truth," Mara said.

"NO. Too many people know already. Jerome, Eddie, Trudy, and Victor. The less people that know the better. This is too risky." Dakota said.

I decided to speak up, "I suggest you tell me the truth, or I'm calling the police and having you arrested for murder. And I have the conversation recorded to prove it."

They shared a look and Dakota sat down on the floor crying. Mara stooped down to comfort her.

"All I wanted was a fresh start," Dakota sobbed, "Everyone was so mean and when I woke up in the hospital with Mara beside me, we both knew I couldn't be there anymore. We explained the situation to a doctor and he informed me that if I returned to America I would be sent an orphanage. Meanwhile, Gran had set up for guardianship to be given to Trudy and Victor. Now I find out that Victor's my grandfather. Nina Martin is dead and I still can't get away from her."

I must've looked pretty confused so Mara cut in. "We signed Nina's death certificate and with Trudy's help, we created Dakota North. Basically, Nina is Dakota."

I sat down on the bed. Oh bloody hell.

And done. I think that cleared up most things.

My dad fixed the wifi but now I'm sitting at a starbucks typing this on my laptop.

I still need six reviews before I update Forgotten. After I post this I'm going to start on the newest chapter of Speechless.

My poll isn't working so you just have to tell me who Dakota should end up with. Fabian, Mick, or OC.

Anyways please review and as always check out my other story!

Love Always,
