Veronica is worried that she's not fertile since it's been months when she and Tony start their honeymoon. She visiting her doctor regularly and do everything she could to stay healthy and eat healthy foods.
She feels so insecure that Allison is pregnant and soon become a mother. She's getting depressed each day.
Although Tony only assist in the Lawson Corporation, he also manage the Ivanov's empire. She looked at the pregnancy strip that have a red line. She throws it away and went to the fridge as she reaches the bottle of champagne. She opens it with a pop, and she swig it to her mouth as the alcohol runs into her throat down to her chest.
She keep drinking and drinking and when she heard that Tony is coming, she immediately hid the bottle under on the space down between the bed and the table and wiped her mouth. She runs to the bed and cover the duvet around her.
"Love?" Tony calls as he strode to the bed and put away his coat to the edge board of the four poster king bed. Then he sat beside her and patted her head covered with the duvet. He searched for the smell of the alcohol and then looked down on the champagne, and he pulls the covers. She's acting like she's sleeping so he go along with her act.
He looked at her and glance at the bottle on the floor. Then he touched it. The bottle is still cold which means that it was pulled out from the fridge a moment ago. "Okay, sleep well." He cover the duvet on her face, strode to the door acting like he's going to leave.
He opens the door and then closes it without leaving the room just to test her. Then Veronica's stick out her arm to reach the champagne without uncovering the duvet. Her actions makes Tony exhales and rubs his forehead.
"Drinking at eleven in the morning?" He asked and Veronica immediately acted like she was sleeping. "Cut it out, V." He strode to bed and pull the duvet to uncover her. She sat up like a zombie and swig the champagne. "What's wrong?" He crawl in bed to reach her and caress her hair.
"I'm not pregnant." She said. "So, I am celebrating." She smiled bitterly. Tony pressed his lips, feel so sorry for his wife. Veronica has been depressed and stressed. He gathered her into his arms and kisses her forehead.

"So what? It's not like I'm going to leave you."
Tony thought of Allison's advice from moving out from the house or maybe go someplace that is stress free.
Veronica become emotional after finishing the champagne, so he let her cry until she falls asleep.
Then he book a flight in a few hours and already booked a resort in Greece using his phone and connections without leaving her in the bed. Everything has been exciting these past few days. The termination of employees in EPUA and how they torture Francisco and—her grandfather's pressure to have grandchildren. Who wouldn't get stressed to all of those?
He call Sabrina and she immediately answer.
"I'm leaving with Veronica for a month. Save the head of Francisco for grandpa. Maybe that will lessen your problem."
"Yeah. Thank you. By the way… I don't know what to do with Sylvia."
"You know what to do, Sabrina. I'll let you handle the rest."
"Okay. Now—this is quite a burden. Thanks, bye." Sabrina hang up and Tony turn to Veronica and crawl to her.
He look at her beautiful face and stroked it carefully. He kisses her lips and she responded quickly, wrapping her arms around him and her legs. They have sex six times a week or seven times a week, but nothing happens.
"Let's go to Greece. I already book a flight and a resort. Just for us. Then—we will go to spas and others you wanted. Okay?"
"Okay. How about our wedding?" She asked. "Grandpa wanted it to be in few weeks."
"It can wait. We haven't sent invitation cards." He kiss her lips. "Don't be sad okay? We will let Albert and Samantha have their wedding first. Does it make you feel better?" She nodded and hugged him.

Allison was looking at herself in the mirror. Her whole body had changed because of pregnancy. Mark become too protective like he don't want her to go to the facility daily because she might catch viruses. But because of her work—she just couldn't. Sabrina told her that she can't enter the dungeon. She cover her body with the silk robe and went out. She peek on the garden and found him making a crib for their baby.
She touch her stomach. Mark would be a great father. He even make a stool for their baby last time. Although her stomach isn't that big—Mark was doing everything for her and for the baby. Was it time for her to accept his love? Was it time for her to start a something new in her life?

He even bought this house and renovate it quickly—all for her. He was always there on her every struggles. From morning sickness, cravings and check-ups. He set aside everything just for her, including his work.
She put her clothes on, go down stairs, and prepare him snacks and refreshments. He was surprised on her actions, but he smile and hugged her from behind although he's full of sweat. He kiss her cheek and her neck.
"I'll finish few things then I'm off to EPUA. I got a meeting."
"I'm going." She said. He was worried about viruses.
"Okay. Make sure that you don't forget your mask

Catriona exhales as she enter the dungeon and down in the stage is Eros in the chair. He look so beaten up and there are bandages on him. Eros look up at her and smile. Catriona only look straight at him and then sat down as Enzo gave her a glass of wine.
"Start it." She demand the executioner.
A man with a knuckle brass punch Eros in his stomach. Eros groaned in pain, but he never break eye contact with her. He was hit another after another. Catriona raise her hand to stop the man. Then Eros speaks.
"You are so beautiful my dear. I hate it when I am not the first man you see."
"Game over, Eros."
"No, darling. It's not that game over yet… you will be mine." He grinned. Enzo's face darkens as he stood went down and start punching Eros in the face breaking his whole face and then nose. Blood gushing down to his neck.
Enzo didn't stop until Catriona told him so. Enzo left and went up to her. His head is boiling as he sat down beside her. Catriona open one of the drawers and reach the towel and the wipe his hands that has Eros's blood.
"Calm down. Okay? No one's going to take me away from you." He kisses her lips hungrily as his eyes stare at Eros.
Eros was shaking in anger. That's what he wanted him to see.
"Take him away." Catriona said. Then she stare at Francisco on the corner who hugged himself and rock himself like he's already out of his mind.
Then she divert her eyes to Janine who is asleep and then to Sylvia who has been mentally tortured with the happenings. She look at Glenn who look so dangerous although he was beaten up. Now, now what is Sabrina going to do with all these people? Then at the very corner are bulky men. Those men were Francisco's men that raped Anastasia years ago.
"You satisfied now?" He asked. She wrapped his hand with the band aid.
"Let's see what happened to him then." She smile and took her bag. "Let's go. I have to shop for the triplets."
Enzo smile and put a hand at the small of her back as he led her outside the dungeon and Eros was screaming calling her name.
For both to have a good mood after their encounter with Eros, she shop clothes for herself and for the triplets. Enzo pay for it, although she have money on her own. She also buy shampoo and foods for their pets who are now guarding the triplets with their nannies.
"Do you want facial spa?" He asked her. She frown at him.
"Do I look ugly in our face?"
"Of course. I think we both need relax. You know." He winks at her. She smiled and pinch his cheek hard.
"Ow." He pull her hand.
When they got home, their dogs are howling and wiggling their tails. Catriona patted them one by one and then she wash her hand after giving them treats. Both take a warm shower and a hot love making before taking their triplets from the nannies. It was a happy life that Enzo wanted. However, he still thought on how Sabrina handle about Enzo.
