Lea was struggling to get out of the man's tight grip who was holding her with all his might. Lea did not want this. No girl would want to be forced on. She tries to scream but he had his fingers wrapped around her neck warning her to not scream or he would squeeze harder.
"I don't mind fucking your corpse. So fucking stay still" warns the man behind her. He moves her to the kitchen counter and bends her. He lifts her dress to her waist and all Lea could do is plead through her muffled voice to let her go.

The man behind her spanks her and says "You got a juicy butt baby"
Lea moves her hand frantically over the kitchen counter to find anything she could use as a weapon and finally, her fingers touched something. She tries to stay calm, building up every last drop of strength she had, and in one hard push, she pushes her attacker back and swings the large knife at him. The man screams and curses at her. In the darkness she tried to see him but in vain. But she didn't want to risk being caught again. So, she ran away. She looks around and ran out of the mansion and rushed into the outhouse.

Arturo was startled when the door of his room flew open and Lea rushes in shaking like a leaf. Both stare at eachother for a few seconds and Lea runs to him and climbs over the bed. She places her head on his chest and hugs him.
"Help me," says Lea with a shaky voice but all Arturo could see was the bloody knife in her hand.

Arturo knew he had to stay calm to understand the situation but first, he had to be sure of his own safety. He first wraps his hand around her bloody hand holding the knife and says "You are safe here" assuring her, he means no harm.
Listening to his comforting words, Lea breaks down crying and didn't notice Arturo very carefully pull the knife away from her. He looks at the night nurse watching them in shock and Arturo signals her to stay quiet and hand him his phone.

After a few minutes, Ezra enters Arturo's room and creases his eyebrows seeing Lea with Arturo. He walks close to Arturo and waits for him to explain.
"I loved it when your mother slept like this on me but she ain't your mother nor I want to make her your stepmom. Get. Her. Off. Of. me" says Arturo and Ezra waits for a few seconds to look around the place and his eyes fall on the bloody knife. He looks back at Arturo.
"She came running with that," says Arturo, and Ezra nods.

Ezra carries Lea into the mansion and to his room but not to her room. He places her on his bed and covers her with the comforter. She was still in hiccups though she was fast asleep. Ezra watches her for a few minutes and then walks out of his room.

Ezra enters Arturo's room and sees him change with the help of the nurse.
"She got all blood on me. Did you check for any injuries on her?" Asks Arturo and Ezra shakes his head no.
Arturo was always irritated with Ezra's minimum use of words. Arturo was about to ask the nurse for a cup of tea and sees her looking at Ezra. He turns to look at Ezra too and rolls his eyes. He gets the nurse's attention and tells her to bring him tea. She nods, embarrassed, and walks away blushing watching Ezra.
"Don't you own a shirt?" Says Arturo seeing Ezra walk in shirtless wearing only sweats with the outline of his shaft visible.
"I was sleeping when you called," says Ezra and continues "So what was that all about"
"Look for the person who did it," says Arturo, and Ezra nods.
"This girl is Lucinda's daughter," says Arturo.
"Lucinda? My babysitter? The one who got pregnant and left the mansion?" Asks Ezra.
"Yes," says Arturo.
"Why should I care unless she is my half-sister?" Says Ezra.
"I didn't fuck no one but your mother. Believe it or not" says Arturo.
"Then why should I care who her mother is?" Asks Ezra.
"She could be Fransis's daughter and the fact he sent her to me makes me believe he is the one who wants me dead," says Arturo.
"You think everyone wants to kill you," says Ezra and looks around the place.
"You want me dead too," says Arturo.
"You died the day, you killed my mother," says Ezra glaring at Arturo.
Arturo doesn't say anything for a few minutes and then says "Will you ever forgive me for that?"
"can you forgive yourself?" Asks Ezra and walks out of Arturo's outhouse.

Flashback...
18 yrs old Ezra watches his parents argue at the dock of the ship in the middle of the night. They had rented this ship to celebrate his mother, Lucia's birthday. Ezra knew Arturo was going beyond to celebrate her birthday to apologize for something Ezra wasn't aware of. Ezra didn't ask as it was private between his parents. He was just happy to spend time with them. He watches as Arturo holds Lucia's arms in a tight grip and shakes her screaming 'fucking listen and understand'

Erza was on the first floor of the deck so he goes around and walks down to the main dock to stop his father from hurting his mother. But when he came down, only Arturo stood in place without Lucia. Arturo was looking down into the dark water and when Ezra looks down too, he immediately knew where his mother was. Ezra screams and tries to jump in but Arturo holds him by wrapping his arms around him. Arturo screams for help and the captain with a few of his men starts a search party. It was only the second day in the morning they found Lucia, dead.

Flashback ends...

"Forgive me" whispers Arturo closing his eyes shut and cursing at his bad fortune.
Arturo was arguing with Lucia over Lucinda's pregnancy. Lucia was certain it was Arturo who has gotten her pregnant but no matter how many times Arturo tried to convince her, Lucia would not understand. This led to numerous arguments and ultimately Lucia's death.

Lucinda had disappeared after Lucia's death and now, Francis had sent her daughter back to the mansion with only bad intentions.

Arturo calls Musa and tells him to come see him the next morning.

Ezra calls the guards and asks who was in the mansion and who was hurt. The guards inform him who was rushed to the hospital for a nasty cut on his face. Ezra grinds his teeth and says he will meet the person tomorrow morning if he returns.

Ezra walks into his room and sees Lea still fast asleep. He let her sleep on his bed and didn't want to scare her further after what she must have gone through. He takes the coach and tries to get some sleep but after just a few minutes, he feels Lea climb on him and place her head on his chest. He hugs her and she sobs.
"I am not a prostitute. I came to return your money and he attacked me" cries Lea.
"Did you see who it was?" Asks Ezra running his fingers in her hair to comfort her and she says "No"
"Don't worry I know who it was" says Ezra and Lea sits up, straddles his torso, and asks "Who?"
"Daniel," says Ezra.
"But Jasmine loves him and why would he do that to me?" Cries Lea and then says in anger  "I want to kill him,"
"Can you?" Asks Ezra amused.
"Killing is easy," says Lea and Ezra saw what he had missed in this innocent girl. A not-so-innocent intention.
