Martha's Vineyard, Ric's stash house, Three days later

" I think we got off on the wrong foot hmm?" Vladimir says. " You threatened my mother, kidnapped my son and his mother," Jason mutters annoyed. He will never trust Victor, Shiloh, or whatever he calls himself. Elizabeth isn't naive and is bidding her time so they can figure out their ultimate plan and who their partner is. According to Anna, there is a third party using an alias that not even WSB can crack but now that they know Victor is involved it makes sense why they can't track it. When Anna and Robert saved them it was off the books and under more of a black ops operation. Victor still has connections in WSB so they had to tread carefully.


" I have no qualms with Dr. Quartermaine. I had to get you to comply. Now turn the frown upside down and let's raid this place and determine if we have another enemy. We will probably never be friends but one thing we have in common is our love for Elizabeth and her children. No one fucks with them. I will protect them at all costs, including from you." Vladimir says. " I am going to hold you to that. I will cover the west wing and you have the east wing. The south and north wings have turned up nothing." Jason says. " Works for me. Meet back here once it is cleared." Vlad says.


Jason finds a secret panel and he searches for the secret Why isn't he surprised? There is Steven sound asleep and Jason shoots him with a dart. He searches the room and finds a laptop and some flash drives. He hides the laptop and gives it to Cody to hold while holding onto the flash drives. " I found Steven and some flash drives. Are you clear on your end?" Jason asks. " I found some paperwork and a computer. I am making copies of the files. Almost done Morgan." Vlad says. What the fuck else were they hiding?


Cassadine Compound, Norway, July 2019, one week later

" The flash drives are videos of Ric keeping an eye on Steven. There is also paperwork, mainly blackmail material of anyone who was involved. The corner and the nurse that switched a dead baby for yours. But here is where it gets more complicated. Franco was being blackmailed by Ric who undercovered his connection to Jerry Jax. Do you know whose initials these are?" Vlad asks Jason. He looks at the initials and then he pulls up another file. " Son of a bitch. Look I will explain it to you but not before telling Elizabeth and one other person I owe this to." Jason gets up and leaves the room.


Elizabeth's room

These twins are playing peek-a-boo just like Jake did. " I see you are acting like your father. Don't want to give us a hint of what you are? Your brother Jake did the same thing but I had a feeling he was a boy. But you two are more stubborn than him." Elizabeth talks to her babies. Only six more weeks at most and that is the upside of having twins they tend to come faster. Jason enters and hears her and gives her a sad smile. She pats the bed and for a few minutes he talks to the twins and she rubs his head helping him relax.


" I found something out and I felt that you and one other person had the right to know. I never found out who did it and I felt like I failed my friend and some ways you because if you knew you never would have been with Franco." Jason says. " Oh no, what is it?" Elizabeth says. " Ric was blackmailing Franco and also Steven. Steven didn't want the truth to come out that he had a connection to Jerry Jax. You see Heather Webber killed the real Heather and stole her identity. She is Lady Jane's sister and turns out Lady couldn't have children. So her sister Miranda James asks Heather to let her use her eggs to have Jerry and Jax. Making Steven and Franco their half-brothers and he was being blackmailed for it. It gets worse. Franco ordered the hit on Stan and Jerry carried it out." Jason says.


" Why do I love monsters? He kept saying it was the tumor that made him do those things and of course, I believed him. What is wrong with me?" Elizabeth starts to cry. " Hey, listen to me. You see the good in people because that is who you are. It is such a rare quality despite everything you have been through. He fooled you because he is a master manipulator and now we know the truth. Stan can get justice and finally, Epiphany will get the answers she has deserved." Jason says. " I am so mad at myself because she is one of my best friends and the man I loved and was married to took her son away. We need to find Jerry and anyone who wishes our family harm cannot live. I cannot live our lives like this for much longer." Elizabeth says.


" It's not your fault and I gave your brother Jerry's name and told him that he is a threat. I do not doubt that he can be found with him and Victor's resources so don't stress about it and we can tell Epiphany the truth together. I love you so much and I am here for you in whatever way you want me to be." Jason says sincerely. " Why do you continue to believe in me and love me when I keep choosing men you warn me about or hate?" Elizabeth whispers. " The same reason you still love and believe in me despite the things I have done. We are alike in the way of give our loyalty to the wrong people and defend them. I know your heart like you know mine because it has always been yours. You are my hero and if past lives exist then you are my soulmate in each one." Jason says. She leans her forehead to his and says softly " If parallel universes exist then you are my soulmate across each one. I love you always Jason."


" Let's skip the theatrics, shall we gentlemen? My sister would be here to witness this but given her condition, it is wise for her not to be a part of this. I am a family man and you fucked with the wrong family. So Jason and I are going to make sure you two can never harm them again. To make this quick tell us where Jerry is because if not then I will enjoy torturing you to get my answers and if not I will pay a visit to your unsuspecting brother Jax." Vlad says. " Jason would never let you hurt him," Steven says. " I don't like Jax and because of Jax's love for Jerry Carly stopped me from killing Jerry and if he went missing it wouldn't bother me. I think you underestimate my love for Elizabeth and our children. You both help steal our daughter. Made her grieve all these years. Made my sons great all these years. I am a patient man and I can take my time hurting you for hurting them." Jason picks up an electric rod and zaps Franco with it while Vlad uses a modified flamethrower and burns Steven. " Clean up this mess and Kristoff I need for you to prepare a team to go to Bali," Vlad says.
