If yes, then what is Damon up to? Why did he lie to Angela about Antonio? However, that's for later. Now she had to keep lying or else. “I am sorry, unfortunately I am being sincere, I haven't heard from Angela”. She sobbed and pretended to be sad. Antonio stared at her for a moment in disappointment, then turned away. “I apologize for all this… I promise to bring Angela back, the twins and Jace… I won't let anyone harm any one of them, I give you my word”. He said quietly and walked towards his car. The head of his security signaled the rest of his men to follow. Doris watched in silence as the convoy of cars pulled out of the compound. As soon as the last one was out of the compound, she allowed herself to exhale, the tension slowly draining from her body. She returned to the living room only to see her sister waiting anxiously. “Who the hell was that?” “It's… Antonio”. Doris muttered, trying to figure something out. "Who?” Her sister interrupted her thoughts. “Just go back to bed, it's a long story”. Doris said holding her head, trying to calculate all that Antonio said, she had her doubts about him being behind all this after their recent interaction. “Just don't get mixed up with some Mafias, mother won't be happy”. “They are not here for me, okay? Just go to bed!” Doris snapped in annoyance. Her sister gave her a long, silent gaze before leaving for her bedroom, mumbling words to herself. Doris picked her phone and dialed Angela's number. She answered immediately. “Doris, are you alright?” "Yes, I am. He's gone, you can come out now”. Doris replied on the phone. “Thank goodness I was so worried about you”. Angela replied and hung up. A few seconds later Angela stepped out of the room, concern etched on her face, slowly, and quietly she closed the door to avoid waking the girls up. “What did he say?” She asked impatiently walking towards her friend. Doris who had her heart still torn between believing Antonio and ignoring him hesitated, then she sighed. “After I convinced him that I have no idea where you are. He said he loves you. That he will find you, he wants to make things right and protect you. He will make sure no one hurts you, the girls….and Jace.” Doris replied, quoting Antonio's words. Angela's expression was conflicted, a mix of emotions and confusion. “He did?” She said in a whisper and shock. Doris nodded. “Do …do …you believe him? You think he is telling the truth?” Doris shook her head. "I don't know, Angela. But I can't risk believing him again. Not after everything you’ve been through. However, I am doubtful that Antonio was the one who hurt you and the girls… I spoke with him… I must say he wasn't here to get rid of you…he was here to look for you…he looked nothing like I imagined, if he were a good person, I would use the word, he is sincerely worried for your sake, and it's affecting him badly”. Angela sat on the couch, unsure what to say next. “Are you sure Antonio was the one behind all this…he mentioned Diana having a plan”. Doris asked and sat down beside her. “But …his men said he was the one… who gave the order. Damon also said he was the one”. Angela grabbed her hair in frustration. “What if they lied, Angela? Tell me there must be a reason why Damon kept you alive, did he request something from you? I don't trust him…I really don't.” Angela was silent, her heart racing heavily, doubting this new angle of discussion. “Does …does it matter? He can still kill me if he wanted to after getting it out of me, right there”. “But he knew you would come back for Jace, right?” Angela's eyes widened as it hit her. “Oh my gosh!”. She gasped almost inaudible. Doris was curious about that sudden reaction. “What's wrong?” “No, it can't be… “. Angela snapped as she shot Doris, her panicking red eyes,hands over her mouth. “What…is that,talk to me. Did you remember something?” Angela sobbed. “I am such a fool”. “What did you do?” Doris asked impatiently. Angela covered her face and broke down in tears. “He asked me to help him frame Antonio”.
“What!” Doris's voice echoed loudly in the house. If yes, then what is Damon up to? Why did he lie to Angela about Antonio? However, that's for later. Now she had to keep lying or else. “I am sorry, unfortunately I am being sincere, I haven't heard from Angela.” She sobbed and pretended to be sad.
