The third point of view
Eden glanced at his wristwatch, he was restless. It was way past the time the show ended already yet, Maya had not arrived. Did she change her mind by chance? Or was the interview taking long?
He was just about to call her when the phone he used for work-related calls rang. At first, he ignored it but picked at the second ring.
"What is it?" He was vexed.
"We have a problem," His assistant went ahead to brief him on the current happening.
"Shit," Eden cursed, took out his other phone, and searched the internet at once.
"Fuck it," he cursed as he scrolled down the numerous news from various sources on the web page.
"I need the news brought down at once," he spoke into the other phone hastily," And contact the public relations department! I want them back to work -"
"But sir, this is nighttime. Who would leave their -"
"Whether they work at home or return to the office, I don't care but tell them that there would be a fifteen percent increase in their salary as far as they resolve this issue," he offered.
"Of course sir," the assistant acquiesced, ending the call.
Eden was not comfortable at all with this development. How had that picture surfaced? Paparazzi? How could he not have been careful?
Eden knew Maya was going to be the one to receive the brunt of this scandal. He was rich and had everything, who would dare to touch him? But the same couldn't be said for Maya, the public and media would crucify her.
"Hello," He called up the security department," I need you to protect her at all cost, use my resources and make sure no harm comes to her,"
He gave the orders having known some fans were extremist. He had seen what happened to her during the previous scandal and wouldn't let such an event occur again. This time, he would protect her.
The anxious Eden ran out of the restaurant with the intent of finding her. He wouldn't relax until he had her safely wrapped in his arms.
Fine, he admits it, he's in love with Maya. Yes, it was stupid of him to deny it at first but now, he wants her. To hell with whatever feud he has with Niklaus, the girl was all that matters; he loves Maya.

By the time Eden hurried to the station, Maya and the others had left and met with Camille instead.
"What is going on?" Eden asked, just to be sure.
"What is going on, is that if you had kept your hands off Maya, she wouldn't be in this state," Camille hissed.
She was so pissed off right now. Both of them had been caught on camera but Eden would go scot-free while Maya suffers till God knows when it would end.
Eden didn't have time to argue with Camille nor prove that Maya was the one who kissed him instead. He was just unsettled with Maya being out amid those hungry wolves.
"Where is she?" He went straight to the point.
"I've sent her to a safe place," Camille answered.
"Tell me what happened?" Eden inquired with his jaw clamped angrily. He already had an idea of what happened but he needed to hear from the horse's mouth.
Camille narrated everything to him without missing a fact and by the time she was true, Eden's face was livid.
"Sue them," he ordered.
"You mean Lily," Camille was not surprised at the turnout.
Though Eden tried to deny it, she suspected he had feelings for Maya and would surely retaliate.
"I mean the station," he stated.
Camille gulped, "You mean the whole station? You're joking, right?" she was dumbfounded.
"Do I look like I'm joking? Contact the legal team at once," he barked orders.
Camille was about to carry out his directions when a call came in from Lisa.
"I'm sorry but I need to take this first," She mouthed, picking up the phone.
"What is ...?" Camille was about to inquire when she heard the girl's sniffing, her countenance changed. Lisa never cries unless she was acting or something huge happened.
"Talk to me," Camille's stomach knotted, she was getting a bad vibe about this.
"It's Maya,"
Her stomach did a backflip
"What about Maya?"
Her phone slipped from her hand and fell to the ground, shattering to pieces when Lisa related the news.
Eden's brows knitted upon noticing Camille's shocked expression. He didn't know who called but he had a feeling it was related to Maya and he was getting bad premeditation.
His throat clogged, "W-what is it?"
Camille bit on her lips, trying her best to rein in her emotion
"Talk to me!" Eden screamed at her, the suspense was killing him.

"It's Maya," she said.
Eden neared her, "What about Maya?"
"She fell off a bridge,"
Meanwhile….
Emily heard the news and raced like a crazy woman to her father's place. It wasn't true, she told herself repeatedly.
Judy can't be dead.
But when the girl saw the signature apologetic look on her father's face, it finally dawned on her, he was gone.
Emily's leg gave out, she fell to the ground in a heap and cried out her heart.
"This is all your fault!" She blamed her father for her misfortune.
The hysterical girl stood to her feet and rushed at her father, grabbing him on the collar and shaking him vigorously.
"You killed him! I blame you for his death! He would have been alive if you hadn't taken him away!"
She had been informed of the accident: while Judy was being transported by sea, there was an attack and they were all killed. Her father recovered the body of his men but Judy's was nowhere to be found.
Emily hoped he survived somehow but the report from the investigation said otherwise. The amount of his spilled blood at the scene suggested he wouldn't survive whatever attack came his way.
"Give me Judy back!" She was still raving when her sight blackened and she lost consciousness.
Her sight was blurry when she awoke and a physician was attending to her with an IV drip attached to her wrist.
"What is going on?" She rasped, her throat was dried, " Where am I?"
"You're awake" their family doctor felt her forehead with the back of her head," You lost consciousness and was brought to my hospital"
Just then, Emily had a flashback of the past events which brought alongside a throbbing headache.
The doctor went on, "As an expecting mother, you should learn how to control your emotion for the growth of your child,"
A bomb went off in her head.
"What?" Emily was astounded, "Expecting mother?"
"Yes, you're two weeks pregnant. Didn't you know?" The female doctor told her," And your blood pressure is quite high which isn't good for a pregnant lady,"
"Oh my God," Emily gasped, her hand going around her stomach and rubbed it. She was pregnant with Judy's baby?
This would have been pleasant news if Judy was still alive. But now she was all alone, Emily was scared. How was she going to nurse a child all by herself?
"Where is the father? I need to speak to him concerning your health," questioned the physician.
"Dead," Tears rolled down her face,
"He just died a day ago," she revealed bitterly.
The doctor was taken aback," Oh my God, I'm so sorry," she sympathized with her.
She adjusted her glasses, "Well if that's the case, I would need to speak to your father,"
Emily was horrified, "No, you can't!" She screamed.
"What do you mean I can't?"
"You can't tell my father, please" she begged with more tears in her eyes.
"You don't understand the problem here, Emily. Aside from the fact you have high blood pressure, you also have a narrow pelvis. The narrower shape of your pelvis can make labor difficult because the baby might move more slowly through the birth canal and you may require a C-section to deliver," she explained.
"I'm begging you please, don't tell him. I know my father, he would do everything possible to get rid of this child. You're a mother too, surely you'd understand my plight," Emily desperately implored of her.
The doctor let out a soft sigh, running her hands through her hair," Let's say I lie to him, then what about your health? You're very fragile Emily, you need treatment and as a doctor, that's my obligation" she pointed out.
"My father engaged me to someone else, I'll just need time and I'll make the pregnancy his. So please, help me out. I can't lose this baby, no, I'll die if I lose this baby,"
"You're going to make your fiancé responsible for a pregnancy that isn't his?" The doctor was short of words.
"Please.." Emily was still pleading when her father walked into the hospital room.
"Father.." she stiffened, her eyes connecting with the doctor's
"What is wrong with her?" Adam went straight to the point with a cold expression.
Emily's hands dug into the sheet, awaiting her death sentence.
The doctor notified, "She fainted from the shock. Aside from high blood pressure, she's fine,"
