Chapter: 4
Quote: the answer lies within
" Gwen are you alright" hank said when he saw her faint, he had
caught her in his arms " somebody please call a doctor a woman
has fainted and she's not responding or breathing " he yelled out to
a nurse " what's wrong what happened to my Gwenie " Rebecca
yelled when she came upon the scene "get her on a stretcher be
careful with her head she might have a concussion " a nurse said as
another nurse came rushing by with a stretcher they picked her up
and placed her on it " what happened what's wrong with my
daughter " Rebecca said now in hysterics" calm down Mrs.
.Hotchkiss I'm sure the doctors will take care of her " hank said
attempting to calm her " I guess your right " Rebecca said siting
down on a bench . Hank sat next to her and they waited. An hour
passed before a doctor came out to talk to them " Mrs. Hotchkiss "
he said coming over to them " yes that's me how is my daughter is
she alright " Rebecca said, " I'm sorry Mrs. Hotchkiss but.."
The doctor started but was interrupted by Rebecca " no not my
Gwenie my daughter she cant be dead doctor she cant be "
Rebecca said becoming hysterical again " no Mrs. Hotchkiss Gwen
isn't dead she's stable but she has slipped into coma it would have
been worse if this young man hadn't caught her when he did,
what's your name son " doctor said smiling at hank " my names
Hank, Hank Bennett." hank said to the doctor " hank aren't you
chief Bennett's brother what are you doing in L.A " Rebecca asked
curious " oh Luis sent me to check up on Teresa after he heard
about Whitney getting shot , he would have gone himself but with
the whole Sheridan getting kidnapped and found he couldn't have
left." Hank explained. Rebecca had tuned out not really paying
attention to Hank she was too worried about Gwen " doctor what
are you going to do" Rebecca asked " we'll have to monitor her
until she responds or comes out of the coma " he said "what if she
doesn't come out of the coma doctor what will you do then, she
just had a baby she has to wake up " Rebecca said holding back
tears " then you'll have to make a choice if you want to let her go
or keep her hooked up if she doesn't respond, but there's still hope
and I'm sure you'd be happy to take care of the baby " the doctor
said . " can I see her I heard talking can sometimes bring the
comatose back " Rebecca asked "yes sure go ahead I have other
patients to see , the nurses will inform me if there is any change "
the doctor said leaving the room. Rebecca just nodded then
grabbed a chair and scooted next to Gwen " Gwen you have to
wake up, you cant let Teresa take Ethan we can fake the DNA test
about Sarah no one will find out plus there thinking of releasing
the baby to me I don't know nothing about babies your nanny
raised you. Gwen just please wake up, the sooner you wake up the
sooner we can get what we always wanted, you know what was in
the plan about Julian adopting Ethan making him the crane heir
again" Rebecca said a bit delusional over her daughter being sick
"Mrs. Hotchkiss I'm sorry but visiting hours are over you'll have
to come back tomorrow, the doctor said that you can take the baby
now " the nurse said holding out a pink bundle " what happened to
the father?" the nurse asked curious. " the father died in a car
crash two months ago " Rebecca said lying of course ,there was no
way she was going to tell this nosey nurse that Gwen was really
dumped by her husband because she lied and the baby wasn't his .
The nurse just smiled and handed the baby to Rebecca and walked
away " what am I supposed to do with a baby, " Rebecca thought.
She stood there clearly revolted by the squirmy little infant in her
arms. Rebecca suddenly came up with an idea of what to do with
the baby." I'll find someone else to take care of this baby " she
said with a smirk
********
" Sorry but, I had to answer the door I'll tell you my decision now"
grace said. She took a deep breath then spoke " I have chosen
neither of you " everyone in the room gasped "mom what do you
mean neither " Jessica asked, " when I went to answer the door
there was an envelope containing some information " grace said.
She handed the envelope to Sam " grace I don't understand what
exactly am I reading here " he asked puzzled " well Sam I was
married with a family, before I lost my memory but, it wasn't with
David it was a man named Andrew Davis " grace explained
"Andrew Davis but that's my fathers name " charity said " I know
charity you're my daughter " grace said smiling " but how is that
possible " Kay screamed " I guess it time we told you girls" Sam
said " daddy what are you talking about " Jessica asked scared of
what they had to say " well you see , after your father and I got
married we had Noah and we wanted another child . We tried but
we couldn't conceive another child so we decided to try adoption"
grace said crying " but it was taking along time to adopt and Sam
and I were having marital problems so unknown to Sam I had a
one night stand with Andrew. After, he claimed to be my husband
but I told him I couldn't remember him and that I was married to
Sam, I never saw him again after that. Then I found out I was
pregnant and at the same time the adoption agency had called us
about a young mother, she had just gotten pregnant and was going
to give up the baby Sam gladly accepted not knowing about my
pregnancy." Grace was interrupted by Kay " so I'm adopted " Kay
said bursting into tears but not about grace not being her mother
but Sam not being her real father." yes Kay you are adopted " Sam
said silently discouraged that he had to tell his daughter the truth
"but how does charity fit into this " Jessica asked confused and
wondering if she was adopted too " well I was pregnant with
charity but I didn't want Sam too know, so I went away saying that
I was going to stay with a friend who was pregnant. Nine months
later I gave birth to charity and I gave her up for adoption. Little
did I know that my twin sister adopted charity and raised her. "
Grace said " so aunt grace your really my mom " charity asked
tearing up "yes charity you're my daughter " grace said grabbing
the girl in her arms. Kay stood there heartbroken she couldn't
believe it she wasn't a Bennett she was a daughter of a teen mother
who didn't want her. Kay was so upset first Miguel threatened to
take full custody of Maria now this. Kay was so overwhelmed by
this that she fainted." Kay are you all right John said catching what
he thought was his half sister just a minute ago" nobody seemed to
notice her fall except John because the others were too shocked
about Grace's infidelity. " Daddy you knew and you didn't tell us,
am I adopted too" Jessica asked so very shocked " no Jessica your
not adopted your Sam and mines, when Kay was two I became
pregnant with you" grace explained after some more explanations
about Ivy hiring David .Sam kicked both David and Ivy out of his
house. After that commotion they finally noticed Kay and they
rushed her to the hospital." John went with her in the ambulance "
is she your girlfriend " the medic asked, " no she's my sis.." John
said stopping himself remembering that they weren't really related
" uh she's just a very good friend " John said as the ambulance
pulled away several cars following it
********
" Luis Antonio I have good news " pillar said running into the
room she immediately sensed that something was wrong when she
walked in " mijo wants wrong " she asked when she saw the look
on Luis's face. Luis explained to pillar about what Beth did to
Sheridan." I cant believe Beth would do such a thing "pillar said
"you better believe it my Bethie is so wicked I wanted to tell Luis
what she did but she threatened to kill me and precious "
Mrs.Wallace said "I'm sorry I didn't believe you Mrs.Wallace but
I didn't know Beth was capable of something like this " Luis said
sighing "its ok Luis Beth is finally gonna get what she deserves "
Mrs.Wallace said. She called precious to her " come on precious
lets go celebrate "she said grabbing her walker and exiting the
room" if Beth is gone and you have your baby what's wrong "
pillar asked confused " mama the doctor said that are baby is very
sick and that he might die" Luis said solemnly "your baby Luis the
baby is mine and Sheridan is my wife " Antonio said anger raising
" Luis I think its time we tell him" Sheridan said holding her baby
close "tell me what" Antonio asked confused " Luis must you tell
him now " pillar said worried about how her eldest son would
react "we have to pillar this has been going on for to long "
Sheridan said " will you stop talking like I'm not here and say
what you have to say" Antonio said clearly irritated " well you
see it all happened a few years ago.." Luis said. He explained
from what happened when him and Sheridan met to their boat
exploding in Bermuda and so on. By the time Luis was done,
Antonio was in shock
" You cant be serious, if Sheridan was in love with Luis then why
didn't you tell me when you regained your memory" Antonio
asked " because you were sick and eve didn't want us to upset you
because it would have been fatal" Sheridan answered. Antonio was
pissed Sheridan was his life and to lose her and the baby he
thought was his to his own little brother was devastating. Antonio
turned and ran out of the room." no Luis let him be by himself for
awhile" pillar said as she saw Luis turn to run after his brother. The
room was filled with silence until Luis remembered that pillar had
to tell them something " mama what was it you wanted to tell us"
Luis asked "oh yes right, this morning I received an envelope quite
like yours "pillar said excitedly "what was in " Luis asked "
patience mijo I'll tell you " pillar said " in the envelope was a letter
from Paloma saying she was coming home and that she had a
surprise for us I'll have all my children home once Teresa gets
back " she said " really that's great mama when is paloma
coming " Luis asked happy to see his other sister " she should be
arriving this afternoon " "that's great pillar I cant wait to meet her
" Sheridan said tears in her eyes " don't cry Sheridan your baby
will be alright all we have to do is pray" pillar said to the
sorrowful girl" I'm going to the chapel to pray " pillar said picking
up little Ethan ,who had been sitting next to his uncle and walked
to the hospital chapel.

He climbed out of his truck and walked to the door "here it goes "
