Before he slipped into unconsciousness, he made a promise to her, swearing on his life to protect her. After that, they would be even, no debts between them. Their story had ended three years ago, on a day soaked in blood.... Yet, he still harbored the foolish hope that Thalassa would change her mind and agree to marry him...
Hertha returned to her parents' house.
Kimberly and Ashton were busy playing with the kids.

Hertha looked towards the source of the voices and saw one little tyke trying to squeeze under the sofa, failing miserably with his little bottom sticking out.
Another was hiding behind the curtains, shoes peeking out, thinking he was completely invisible by pressing further into the drapes-a classic case of 'if I can't see you, you can't see me.' Only kids could be so innocently clueless.
Of course, Kimberly immediately saw through their amateurish hide-and-seek tactics, barely containing her laughter.
Just as she was about to seek them, she caught sight of Hertha walking in. Instead of continuing the game, she said, "Oh my, Julian and Helena are so well hidden, Grandma can't find you anywhere." While saying this, she gestured to Ashton, whispering, "Keep an eye on the kids." Then she turned to Hertha with a serious expression and beckoned her over, lowering her voice, "We need to talk. In the study!" NOW PLAY YOUR FAVOURITE GAMES ON Hertha knew by her mother's demeanor that she was in for a lecture, a reckoning for past deeds. She glanced at Ashton, stuck out her tongue playfully, and followed her mother to the study.
Kimberly closed the door and slapped her on the arm, frustrated, "Hertha, how have I always taught you? To keep yourself respectable, to understand the importance of self-worth, to protect yourself. What have you done? You went and got yourself pregnant before marriage, and now the kids are growing up without a father!" Hertha pouted, rubbing her sore arm, "Mom, it's not what I wanted... If I had a choice, who would want this..." "What do you mean you had no choice! Spencer was a catch, if you had married him, you and Spencer's kids would be two by now, and they wouldn't be fatherless!" Kimberly couldn't get over the past. Her anger made her chest heave, speaking in a low tone to Hertha.
She kept her voice down, not wanting the children to overhear; after all, they were innocent.
Hertha said, "Mom, you don't understand. When you all wantedto marry Spencer, I was already pregnant. If I had married him without telling him the truth, wouldn't that have been deceiving him? It wouldn' have been fair to him." "What? You were already pregnant at that time?" Kimberly was astonished, this was completely unexpected.

Hertha quickly stepped forward, gently patting her back, trying to calm her, "Mom, please don't be mad it's been three years. I didn't trouble you with my pregnancy, knowing you wouldn't forgive me. That's why I never even told you about giving birth..." Her parents, both retired civil servants, cfrom a very traditional background.

Kimberly turned sharply to Hertha, seeing her stubborn and unrepentant demeanor, she was both heartbroken and angry.
Hearing that Hertha had gone through childbirth alone, Kimberly's heart bled for her, sighing with am mixture of gain and affection, "Oh, Hertha, if we hadn't met today, were you planning to cut us off for good? Not even contacting us for something as big as giving birth, how could you make us so heartbroken..."
