Isabella slowly stood up and walked a few steps. "I'll confess something to you." She turned to face her. "Your daughter...your daughter lives."

Sabine stands up quickly. "She lives?!"

Isabella nods softly. "Yes and I can tell you where she is."

Sabine covered her mouth in surprised and tears of happiness fall from her eyes, and then she walks up to Isabella. "My daughter lives? She lives?! Where is she? Who has her Isabella?!" Sabine grabs Isabella's arms in desperation. "Please tell me, please tell me." Sabine put her hands together as she begged Isabella to tell her where her daughter was.

Isabella tried to calm her down, but it didn't work so she just blurted it out. "She's with me. I have her."


"I swear father I only gave Mari one kiss. Yes, it was a stolen one, but it was a gentle one it wasn't for her to react the way she did." Nino was walking on a sidewalk explaining father Carlos what happened with Mari last night.

Father Carlos raised an eyebrow. "You say that she reacted with anger and violence?"

Nino nodded as he continued walking with him. "I don't understand Mari. Sometimes she is restless later she is sweet and innocent then she is mischievous."

Father Carlos smiled. "I know. I know her by heart. Some say she is an angel others say she is a little devil."

"You know what father I feel like what happened last night has to do with something that happened to her right after she escaped from the orphanage." Father Carlos and Nino looked at each other processing what Nino just said.


Adrien let Maya stay home from school just for the day only if she got out of her pajamas and into something else. His goal was for her to go back to her usual routine little by little. In no time, Maya goes back downstairs in a summer dress that was pink her favorite color. Adrien put her back on his lap to talk with her.

After a while, he heard Natalie say 'sir' he looked up and saw Judge Dupain standing next to her. He gently put Maya down and stood up. "Judge Dupain how are you?"

They shook hands. "Very good Dr. Agreste I was going to call you by phone, but I thought it would be better to come in person." He noticed Maya next to Adrien. "And who is this beautiful little girl?"

Adrien smiled gently putting Maya in front of him. "She is my daughter say hello dear."

"Hello." She said softly.

Judge Dupain held both of her hands in his. "You're adorable. What's your name?"

"Mayaposa." She replied proudly.

Judge Dupain chuckled. "Such an important name."

She giggled softly. "People just call me Maya for short though."

"A pleasure in meeting you Maya." Judge Dupain said sweetly.

"Me too because you're daddy's friend." Maya said honestly.

Both men chuckled at that. "Well, sweetie go with Natalie, we'll be in the library."

Natalie held Maya's hand. "Let's go dear."

As they walk away Judge Dupain looked at Adrien. "She is very sweet. You know I envy you Adrien. You don't know how much I would like to have a daughter."


Feeling better Mari was eating when she heard a knock on the door, and then it being opened. "Good morning Marinette."

Mari turned to face the person who came in. "Good morning Father come right in. This time you actually read my mind, I was planning to visit you at the church, but you beat me to it."

He put his hands in front of him. "I also wanted to see you to talk to you. I want to know what happened between you and Nino."

Mari frowned. "That fool kissed me."

He nodded slowly. "And that has a lot of importance?"

Mari nodded. "On the mouth is very bad. I didn't want to, but he did it by forced."

Father Carlos looked to the side. "Well maybe that was the error, but Nino is in love with you. He says it was a kiss with no bad intentions a clean kiss. Marinette I only want your happiness. It's time for you to look at the future. The path of a woman is to form a family to have kids. You need to have a boyfriend and marry after a while."

Mari rolled her eyes. "I'm never going to get married."

"Why not?" He looked at her seriously.

She looked straight at his eyes. "Because I won't let any man touch me or kiss me or anything."

Father Carlos crossed his arms. "Why are you afraid of men Marinette?" Mari doesn't answer and just walks away to the couch. Father Carlos turns to face her. "Answer me Marinette please why?"

Mari turned to face him. "It's because of the nightmare father."

He raised an eyebrow. "What nightmare?"

"It's always the same one always." Mari's tone turns sad as father Carlos walks closer to her.

"What occurs in that nighttime Marinette?" He puts his hands in front of him again. Mari puts her hands in her back pocket and sighs. "Have trust in me tell me."


"So you already have dictated sentence in the case of the youth who had a fight in the club?"

Adrien leaned on a chair as Judge Dupain sat on the other chair. Judge Dupain nodded. "Yes the process is completed."

Adrien nodded and walked in front of his chair to sit down. "So are you going to punish them?"

He shook his head. "The most that I'm going to do is give them a penalty fee."

Adrien smiled. "I think that's reasonable Judge."

"The one that saved herself from the situation is that girl who tricked you." Judge Dupain chuckled.

Adrien thought for a moment. "Yea...speaking of which I found Mari by chance last night."


"I have never told anyone father." Mari starts crying walking close to the stairs.

Father Carlos followed her. "You can tell me I'm like a father to you. What happened in your dream?"

Mari cried harder. "It wasn't just a dream father it actually happened. It happened to me in real life. He grabbed me by force and harmed me a lot. He embarrassed me...that jerk traumatized me for the rest of my life." Mari continues to cry as father Carlos looked at her shocked at her words.


"That young lady interests me a lot. I feel like we have a special case with her. Psychiatrically she intrigues me." Adrien spoke with a smile as Judge Dupain just looked at him.


"He hurt me a lot and harm me and kissed me and forced himself on me. I defended myself, but he was stronger than me." Mari kept crying and bends down in tears grabbing Teddy. "Oh Teddy." At this rate, Mari was crying a river.


"Dear friend don't cry anymore." Sabine was sitting on the bench again as Isabella was bending in front of her. "Please calm down."

"It's just impossible Isabella. I can't believe it. How can you have my daughter? Where did you find her? How do you know it's her?" Sabine looked up at her.

Isabella sighed. "I have no doubt that it's her."

"Please Isabella I beg you; I need to know I beg you." Sabine grabbed Isabella's hands as she begged her.

"Wait Sabine." Isabella slowly stood up. "You'll know everything soon." Sabine looked up at her in tears.


"Who was that jerk? Do you know him? Could you not see him?" Father Carlos looked at Mari as she stood up.

"No father that's why I can't remember his face when I try. I can't see him in the nightmares either. When I'm about to see his face, I wake up yelling like crazy." Mari hugs Teddy tighter as her tears wet his fur.

Father Carlos shook his head furiously. "How is it possible for a human being to be capable of something so low. To abuse a young girl like that."

Mari nodded. "I hate him! I hate him father Carlos. I would attack him if I could. That's why I don't want any guy any guy to touch me ever. I don't want that."

Father Carlos decided to take Mari outside in hope of cheering her up. She held Teddy the whole walk and soon felt a little better. After a while, father Carlos blessed her and walked back to the church.

"Hay Mari!" Mari looked to the side and saw Roland park his car near the sidewalk that she was on.

He had a smile, but she wasn't in the mood to deal with him at the moment. "What did you loose in my neighborhood Roland?"

He got out of the car. "I was heading to your street to look for you. Can we talk for a while?" Mari just stared at him blankly. "What we agreed that we were friends didn't we?"


Isabella walked to a tree as she spoke. "I did a lot of inquiries and time after I arrived at the orphanage that I learned your daughter was left at." She turned to look at Sabine. "I took her out of there and since then she was with me."

Sabine stood up. "Why didn't you let me know sooner?"

Isabella put her hands in her pockets. "I already told you that I lost connections with you, and I thought you didn't care about her."

"For God sake Isabella how could you say that?!" Sabine said desperately. "I'm not those mothers who don't worry about their children." She covers her face crying.

"I'm sorry Sabine but I thought that based on your attitude." Isabella said sadly. "Now that I saw you again after all these years...I didn't plan to tell you the truth but...your pain...your worries...they convinced me...I don't have the strength to see you suffer when I could heal your pain...that's why I confessed to you that your daughter was with me."

Sabine took a deep breath and took a few steps away from Isabella. "My daughter...finally I have found her." She looks up at the sky. "Thank you thank you God. Is it that I finally deserve your forgiveness?" Tears fall harder. "To see my daughter to be able to hug her. To embrace her against my heart and to call her my daughter thank you." She turns to face Isabella and walked back to her. "Please Isabella take me to where she is take me to her. Please I beg you."


"Mari you grew up in an orphanage right?" Roland was walking with Mari on the sidewalk eating a cup of ice cream.

Mari nodded. "Yes."

"Do you know who your parents were?" He takes a bite of his ice cream.

Mari shook her head and said emotionless. "No."

He raised an eyebrow. "They didn't even give you their last name?"

"Not even that." Mari position Teddy better so she wouldn't drop him.

He nodded. "Than who took you to the orphanage?"

She turned to face him. "Father Carlos took me."

He took a bite of ice cream. "How did you end up in his arms?"

"My mom handed me to him." Again, Mari's tone was emotionless.

Roland looked at her softly. "Did your mom die?"

Mari laughs sarcastically. "No she didn't die."

He took another bite. "She's alive and never searched for you?"

"Never why would she? She never loved me. If she did love me, she would never have handed me over." Mari patted Teddy's head.

Roland took another bite. "She could've been those girls who just have one-night stands and didn't want trouble. Hay Mari without knowing you could be heir to a rich family."

Mari glared at him. "To be rich is not what I care for. I would just have wanted her love, but she didn't give it to me."

Roland nodded. "She could've died don't you think? It could've happened."

Mari shrugged. "Well maybe and even if she's still alive for me, she's dead." Roland was about to touch her shoulder, but she stops him.

"Mari you need love and I would like to give it to you. Of course love of a friend but can it change over time?" Mari just stares at him. "Mari my love for you is clean honest love of a man." Mari backs away. "Or love of a friend if you prefer."

"Look stop with your attempts oh such gentleman because I don't believe in love." She starts to walk away. "We're leaving Teddy see ya Roland."

Roland turns the opposite way as Mari and mumbles as he ate his ice cream. "You will fall Mari and you will fall with me."


"I want to hug my daughter. I want to tell her that I'm her mother. That I didn't want to cause any harm to her the opposite really." Sabine covered her face.

Isabella held her arms. "Yes Sabine sit down first we need to talk." Isabella leads Sabine to the bench, and they both sit down.

"But Isabella." Isabella hands her a tissue to wipe her tears off. "Thank you." She takes it and uses it.

Isabella looked down. "Look your daughter Lila was-"

Sabine quickly looks at Isabella. "Her name is Lila?"

Isabella nodded. "Yes."

Sabine looked in front of her and repeated the name. "Lila."

With a light smile, Isabella held her hand and continued. "I was saying Lila was adopted by my sister and her husband, they gave her their last name. She calls me aunt but she loves me as if I was her mom because she has always lived with me." Sabine looks down hearing Isabella. "Of course, Lila knows the truth about her origins." Sabine looked back at her. "Yea she knows that my sister and brother in law aren't her real parents, and that I'm not her aunt."

"Does Lila know I exist?" Sabine asked softly.

Isabella looked at her sadly. "You gave her up a long time ago."

Sabine sighed deeply. "I was sure that I was going to die when my daughter was born. I was even in the hospital for a long time. When I recovered I looked for her uselessness, and I love her. She's my daughter Isabella. I want to get her back please Isabella give her back to me. She's my daughter Isabella."

Isabella stood up and took a few steps. "If I didn't propose it to myself Sabine, I would never have found her. What would cost me in hiding the truth to you, nevertheless, I confessed everything to you." Sabine stood up as Isabella turns to face her.

"I'm sorry." Sabine grabbed Isabella's arm. "Forgive me Isabella." Sabine gives her a side hug. "You're right I understand you. You must love her a lot, and it hurts you that you can loose her."

Isabella looked at her sadly. "No, not that I think that if I hand her to you; I won't loose her. You would permit me to live with her right? Or would you forbid me from that privilege?"

Sabine smiled holding her hands. "Of course, we'll live together and be very happy." Both smiled happily but then Isabella frowns.

"What about your husband? What will you tell Tom?"


Mari walked into a Market and asked for some things. Suddenly, she heard her name being called behind her; she turned around and smiled. "Hi Mrs. Lahiffe how are you?"

Mrs. Lahiffe smiled. "Very good you know I hoped that we could talk a bit about my son...my son Nino."


"Your husband doesn't know that you two have a daughter. How will you solve that situation?" Isabella and Sabine were in the bench again.

Sabine looked at her. "I don't know Isabella. I don't know at the moment."

Just then Tom walks over. "I'm back love." Both stood up, and Tom looked at Isabella. "I'm sorry I don't think I know the Mrs." He noticed the tears on Sabine. "What's wrong Sabine were you crying?" Sabine laughed nervously.


"My son Nino doesn't understand why you got that mad while him." Mari was still holding Teddy as she walked with Nino's mom.

She tries not to cry. "Because he kissed me that's why."

His mom looked at her. "What's wrong with that?"

"For you maybe nothing but a lot for me." Mari tears up.

"Look Mari when people fail in love they kiss." Nino's mom said matter of factly.

Mari replied back the same way. "Well guess what I'm not in love."

She sighs. "But he is of you and a lot."

Mari shook her head. "That's not my problem. I don't even like him."

"It wasn't to make a fool of him either. His kiss wasn't to offend you. It was a declaration of love." His mom looked at her.

"It was a dirty kiss. A forced kiss and that's why I don't want to see your son Nino again near my house never. I don't want to hear his name either." Mari walks the other way mad and in tears.


"Did something happen Sabine?" Tom looked at her worriedly.

Isabella spoke up. "Nothing bad it's just Sabine is very sentimental, and since we started remembering the past, she got emotional. You and I met a long time ago Judge, but it's obvious that you don't remember anymore. I'm good friends with Sabine Isabella Red." She extended her hand out to shake.

Tom shakes it. "Yes, I think I remember you."

Isabella smiled softly. "I was with Sabine when you left her."

Tom nodded. "That sad and terrible period of time." Tom looked at Sabine and wrapped an arm around her. "Fortunately, we got back together and with every day that she spent alone and in sorrow I have given her many more days of happiness and love." He smiled and looked at Sabine. "Isn't that right Sabine?"

She smiled. "That's right Tom."

"Well Isabella stay at your home here. Keep on talking." Tom starts walking away as Isabella says good-bye watching him go and Sabine sits down again.

Isabella looked at her. "What will you do Sabine."

Sabine sighed as Isabella sits down next to her. "I don't know talk...talk with Tom. Tell him everything." She looked at her. "But before anything, I want to see my daughter." Sabine held Isabella's hands.

Isabella nodded. "You'll see her. You'll see her."

Sabine teared up happily. "I need to see her today."

Isabella sighed. "It has to be tomorrow my dear friend because I need to prepare Lila."

She nodded. "I'm just desperate to see her. Please understand Isabella please."

"Tomorrow." Isabella smiled. "Tomorrow at 10 in the morning, we'll be waiting for you."

Sabine sighed. "Where do you live?"

"I'll write down my address." Isabella went through her purse and took out a pen and piece of paper to write her address down.

Sabine put her hand over Isabella's. "Thank you thank you Isabella."

Isabella held her hand. "Don't give me your thanks now. There will be time to show me your gratitude later."


"I went to the house of Marinette to talk to her." Father Carlos smiled at the woman in front of him.

The woman looked at him worried. "Did Mari say something to worry you father? You have this look-"

He shook his head. "No Marlena there's no problem. What about you how are you?"

Marlena smiled sadly. "Forgotten by God like always."

He looked sadly at her. "Don't say that he never forgets any of his creatures."

She smiles a bit brighter. "The truth is with the daughter God gave me...it's enough for me to come here everyday and give thanks."

He smiled at her. "Have you heard of Alya?"

She nodded. "I received a letter yesterday. My girl writes so beautifully. She's a treasure, and she studies hard father."

He smiled brighter at her. "I'm glad that Alya gives you such satisfaction Marlena."

Marlena fowns a bit. "I have gone through hard time keeping her away from me to give her a good education, but it's worth it because education is the best weapon to fight and succeed in life father. If Mari who I care for deeply could have educated herself she would be someone else just like me...anyway for what I came here for." She hands him money. " Here, for the orphanage."

Father Carlos shock his head. "The money isn't enough for you you should keep it."

"Imagine if people only gave what they had plenty of." She smiled. "Keep it for the most needed. The young ones need it. I wish I could help more father." He smiled softly at her.


That night Isabella got off the taxi as she thanked the driver before closing the door and started walking in her apartment complex. Inside the house, Lila was sitting at the kitchen table painting her nails. Suddenly, her aunt came in all happily saying hello multiple times. Lia put her nail polish down. "What happened what happened how did it go with your friend?" Lila was desperate to know how it went.

Isabella put her purse on the table and smiled brightly. "Great success."

Lila smiled just as bright. "Really aunt?"

"Yes we'll be rich!" Isabella put her hands on the table excitedly before walking to the chair next to Lila's. "We'll have the great life."

"But what happened to the real daughter?" Lila looked at her curiously.

"She never appeared Lila ever. From tomorrow on you will take her place." Isabella smiled pointing at her with her hand.


Sabine held the paper with the address against her chest. "I don't know how to thank you God. Thank you for giving me my daughter back thank you."


"Sabine is crazy to meet her dear daughter." Isabella makes fun of Sabine's desperation by using a soft tone.

Lila looked at her. "What about the husband?"

Isabella waved her hand at her. "He doesn't know yet, but Sabine assured me that she will tell him."

Lila nodded. "And she believed the story you told her?"

"Of course everything." Isabella pulled out the chair and sat down facing Lila. "And tomorrow she's coming to meet you." Lila raised an eyebrow at her. "I told her that my sister and her husband gave you their last name, and that you call me aunt but you consider me like a mother since you always lived with me."

Lila put her arm on the table and leaned on her hand. "You are terrible Aunt Isabella."

She smiled. "We will have a new life Lila. Do you realize that? Important relationships, social events parties-"

Lila smiled sitting straight up excitedly. "Shopping the best of everything."

Isabella nodded more excited. "Expensive dresses, jewelry-"

"Yes and hot millionaires lovers." Lila smiled excitedly.

"Of course being the daughter of the famous Judge Dupain." Isabella said pointing at her with her hand.

"I'll make a good marriage. I'll marry a millionaire I'll have servants to even fan me. I won't move a finger for the rest of my life." Lila had a bright smirk as she spoke.

"That would mean you're determined to do the role." Isabella smirked at her.

"Of course in fact." Lila took a deep breath and smiled sweetly. "From this moment on I already feel like Lila Dupain-Cheng."


The next morning Sabine was already up and ready to go even though she still had an hour before the meeting time. She was getting her purse ready as Tom came in their bedroom, still in his pajamas, and looked at her curiously. "You're going out so early?" Sabine looked at him unsure what to say.


Isabella was putting some flowers on the coffee table as Lila walked down the stairs. "You do know how you should act right Lila?" Isabella looked over at her.

Lila nodded with a smile. "Of course aunt. What time did you say my dear mother Sabine will be here?"

Isabella smiled. "At 10 in the morning."

"Will you be very proud of me you'll see how good I represent the role of." Lila makes a sad look. "The abandon daughter."

Both laughed at that.


"I'm going shopping." Sabine finally spoke.

Tom nodded walking to the bed. "If you want I'll take you, then I'll tell the driver to pick you up."

Sabine faced him. "No thank you; I prefer to take the car since I have other things to do, plus I want to go now, and you're still not dressed. It's getting late Tom." Sabine starts to walk away.

"Late to go shopping?" Tom raised an eyebrow.

Sabine stopped and smiled nervously. "I want to beat the sun." She goes over to him and kisses his cheek. "Bye love." She walks to the front door and out the house. She gets in the car and sighs. "I can barely believe it. It seems like a lie. I will meet my daughter."


Roxie was in the police station, and suddenly she saw a man walk pass; he seemed very familiar. She raised an eyebrow. "Sir." The man turned around to face her, and she couldn't believe who it was. "Mr. psychiatrist what a surprise didn't you die?"

"Die?" Adrien walked up to her.

Roxie nodded. "That's what everyone you examine that day of the fight thought. Mari told us that you died in a plane crash in the ocean."

He sighs. "No wonder. Now I understand."

Roxie looked at him confused. "What?"

"Mari found out about the accident that's why she panicked when she saw me." He looked at Roxie confused. "What are you doing here again."

She sighs. "Paying the penalty fee your friend Judge Dupain gave us. Well except for Mari that tricked both of you." She smiled at him.


Sabine arrived at the apartment complex and parked her car. She got out and walked inside and finds the right apartment. When she finds it, she knocks.

Inside the house, Lila hurries to her spot fixing her hair.


Fu was resting outside when he suddenly grasped in surprise. "My God the dead man!"

Adrien looked at the man amused. "You too? Fu right?"

He nodded. "Yea the same one that works for your household selling and making your tea but didn't you die in that accident?" Fu laughed to himself. "Of course not you wouldn't be in front of me. Dead people only come out at night and when they party."

Adrien laughed with him. "No sir I didn't die in the accident. I want to see Mari to clear that up to her. Sadly only my wife died."


Isabella opened the door and smiled. "Sabine." They hugged. "Come in we were waiting for you."

Sabine walked in as Isabella closed the door. Sabine walked in the living room and saw a young woman sitting on the couch. Isabella walked beside Sabine and said softly. "Sabine here's your...your daughter."

The woman slowly stood up and Sabine looked at her sadly unable to move.


"Well Mari is in the neighborhood cleaning our laundry but if you appear to her just like that be careful not to give her a heart attack." Fu smiled at him.

Adrien chuckled. "Don't worry. What are you to Mari Fu?"

He smiled softly. "Family wise nothing but a while ago I opened the doors to my house and to my heart to her. She's a daughter to me."

Adrien smiled. "What about her parents?"

Fu fowns a bit. "She doesn't have parents, she's an orphan. She grew up in an orphanage."

Adrien sighs. "I'll go see her excuse me and thank you Fu."

Adrien walked into the neighborhood, and walked to the back where the laundry is done. He saw Mari busy working her back was facing him, so she hasn't noticed him. He smiled "Mari."

She quickly stopped and started to slowly turn around seeing it was him she froze not believing it. "Why do you keep on appearing."

"I want to talk to you." He said calmly.

"Dead people talk? I thought they only spooked." Mari looked at him uneasy.

Adrien chuckled. "No Mari I'm not dead."

Mari looked at him unsure. "Didn't you drown in that plane crash in the ocean?"

He shook his head. "No I did suffer an accident, but I didn't die in it. If you want proof than touch me." He extends his hand for her to touch. Mari looks at his hand hesitantly. "C'mon touch me to be convinced that I'm alive." She slowly raises her hand to touch one of his fingers but panics and quickly moves her hand away.


"Lila now knows the truth. She is aware that you are her real mother. She took it very well so much that she was anxious waiting for you." Isabella holds Sabine arm. "What are you waiting for Sabine weren't you crazy to hug and kiss your daughter?" Isabella looks at Lila. "And you Lila."

Lila looks at Sabine with sad soft eyes and whispers. "Mom."

That broke Sabine from her trance, and she went over to her daughter and hugged her crying of happiness and shock and relief. Lila softly hugged her back as she lets her smile fade.


Mari finally touched his finger but quickly moves her hand away. "Well yes, you're alive."

Adrien's smile faded a bit. "Sadly, my wife was the one who died."

Mari frowns. "May God have her in his grace."

He thanked her and leaned on a pole as Mari continued doing the laundry. "So was my accident the reason why you panicked the other night? Plus you seemed very nervous."

Mari nodded. "Well that and other things many other things." She turned to face him. "You cue crazy people right?"

He smiled at her with amusement. "Well let's say that I help the people in having their minds in order."

"Well I'm going to ask you a favor." She continues her work. "If you could help me take away a nightmare that I always have."


Sabine breaks the hug. "My dear daughter it seems like a dream. I thought you were lost forever I suffered so much for you; I looked for you to the exhaustion. I cried thinking that...thinking that I wouldn't see you again." Sabine couldn't stop crying as she cupped Lila's cheek.

Lila smiled softly. "Don't cry mom we both need to be happy."

Sabine nodded trying to stop her tears from falling. "Yes you're right." Sabine looked at Lila fully. "You're so beautiful."

Lila kept her smile. "You too mom."

Sabine smiles sadly. "To think that you grew up far away from me and became a woman, and I couldn't see you unable to be with you during your happy and sorrow times. I missed so many things about you. You must see badly of me Lila. Please forgive me, I was a coward when I gave you to that priest to take care of you. I was so sick and ill, and so worried. I thought I was going to die, and I thought that you my dear girl would be alone in the world."

"You don't need to mortify yourself in remembering sad things mom. Aunt Isabella told me everything." Lila smiled at Isabella and reached for her hand. "I love Aunt Isabella so much."

Sabine smiles and grabs both of their hands. "And you should keep loving her my dear girl." Sabine looked at Isabella. "She has done a lot for you." She looks back at Lila. "And even though she hid the truth from me for so long I am grateful to her. When I take you to my house, she will come live with us."

All three smiled as Lila gave Sabine a side hug. "Thank you mom thank you."

When they broke the hug, Sabine looked at her. "Can you ever forgive me Lila?"

Lila smiled cupping her cheek. "Of course mom."

Sabine looked down. "I need to give you a lot of explanations."

"I'm not asking for them mom, I know that you suffered a lot." Lila smiled brightly. "And now I'm happy knowing that my real parents live."

Sabine smiled. "We will love you with all our hearts. When Tom learns the truth and meets you, he'll love you just the way I do I'm sure." She hugs her. "We'll give you everything you need. You'll be the center of attention in the house. Nothing will be too little for us." Lila and Isabella smirked at each other.


"What are the nightmares about?" Adrien looked at Mari curious, and she just stares at him. "Do you not want to tell me?"

"It's just a nightmare." She said emotionless.

Adrien chucked. "Yes but what happens in your dream?"

"Do I have to tell you?" She looks at him blankly.

He nodded. "Of course for me to be able to help you, I need to know everything about what occurs in your nightmare."

Mari sighs and continues working. "Nevermind than."

Adrien stood up straight. "I would love to help you, you know." She ignores that comment. He takes out his wallet and took out a business card handing it to her. "Take it."

She looks at him. "Why?"

"All my numbers are on here. If you ever need me or think that I can help you with something call me. Please." He smiles at her and she just looks at the card.


Father Carlos was sitting at his desk when Nino walks in. "Good morning father."

Father Carlos looked up and smiled. "Good morning son."

Nino sat on a chair in front of him. "I'm sorry for bothering you father, but I wanted to know if you had the chance to talk to Mari?"

Father Carlos slowly nodded. "Yes somewhat."

Nino looked at him curiously. "And what did you tell her about me?"

He looked at Nino. "Not much I was trying to justify you saying that if you kissed her; it wasn't bad intentions."

"And did she understand?" Nino looked hopeful.

Father Carlos shrugged. "I think so."

Nino smiled. "So I can go over to her like nothing happened?"

He sighs. "In my opinion, my you should leave Mari alone right now romantically wise anyway."

Nino fowns. "But father-"

He puts his hand up. "At the moment, she is incapable in falling in love with you or any other guy."

Nino raised an eyebrow. "Why do you say that?"

He sighs. "She is having problems. She suffered traumas, and scars were left on her. Maybe over time she'll change, but you can't pressure her."

Nino sighed. "Father please tell me what is covered in all of this? Tell me the truth."

Father Carlos looked at him sadly. "I can't tell you anything."


Mari sat in front of her porch and looked at the business card in her hand before looking next to her leg at Teddy. "The crazy cue doctor said that he wanted to help me." She smiled. "Gezz that sounds nice. Father Carlos helps the whole neighborhood, but he wants to help me. Look he left me his card." She looks at the card. "His name is Adrien Agreste." She smiled brightly. "Adrien...he smiled at me Teddy, he smiled."


Tom was reading a book in the living room when Sabine walked in the house about to head to the bedroom. "Sabine." He puts the book down and stood as she turned and walked to him.

She smiled. "Hi love."

He noticed the look on her face when she was in front of him. "What's the matter?"

"Nothing." She avoids eye contact.

"C'mon love I know you too well you have something." He looks at her worriedly.

She looks at him. "Tom I need to talk to you. It costs me a lot, but I want and should do it."

He puts a hand on her back and leads her to the couch. "Sounds like something important. Sit down." She sat down, and he sat next to her. "I'm listening." She stays silent for a while. "Please speak."

She sighs. "It's just that I don't know how to tell you."

He looked at her concern. "Isn't there trust between us?" She looks down. "Please speak."

She looked at him again. "You need to forgive me Tom since I have lied to you for many years."

He raised an eyebrow. "What lie are you talking about?"

She glanced down. "A long time ago I..." She looks up. "Had a daughter."

Tom was shocked. "Are you joking?"

She looks sadly at him. "Do you think that I would joke about something so serious and dedicated Tom?"

"A daughter? You had a daughter?!" He looks at her surprised.

She nodded. "Yes Tom a daughter...that's yours."
