Love Conquers All

Carla Appears

Ray
I get an odd phone call at three am. Isobella hears the same message. So Grace Ana isn't Carla's daughter. She needs help and fast. I can't go to help her, but I know someone who can and will help her. Prescott and Sawyer are going to go help her and get her to our home very quietly.

Isobella
I can't believe Carla asking for help from Ray after all she has done to him and Anastasia. Yet here she is calling at three am and he is helping her out.

Carla
I call Ray to get his help, he at first didn't want to help me out, but he heard the babies crying and he agreed to help me out. I am looking at my sons and thinking about how I am going to get Ray to help hide my sons from their murdering father. I still don't know how I got pregnant by him. Once I see Ray I will explain everything to him and hopefully he will hide the babies.

Sawyer
We weren't prepared to pick up a woman and twin boys at a greyhound bus station at four am. We have to make sure the babies are secure and somehow we were able to.

Prescott
I grab the two duffle bags and strap them to the back seats and pad them with the blankets and place the small suit cases in front of the seats to provide a buffer to stop the bags from rolling off the seat. We drove very safely while Carla sat between the boys. This woman is a piece of work.

Ray
Sawyer and Prescott bring the babies inside in duffle bags. I look at them and take them both out of the bags we go put them in the nursery where Teddy stays in and the baby bed. Isobella pulls out blankets for both of them. Carla being Carla heads for the liquor cabinet. Prescott comes in with the diaper bag and it has very little in it. So we need to have them get supplies for the boys. Milk for the boys and diapers in their size.

Isobella
I can't fathom how a mother wouldn't have food and diapers for their babies, but we are talking Carla here. I don't like her being here and told her that and Ray told her will get her somewhere safe, but she's to not contact Anastasia for any reason. I don't trust her in that regard and he doesn't either. Sawyer and Prescott finally arrive with everything Ray sent him to get especially the baby car seats. You can find anything you want at 24/7 stores. We get the bottle washed and filled with baby formula and get the boys fed and changed. They aren't very old. A week maybe. Raymond Efron and Roger Ellis Steele and I look at Ray and he tells me they aren't his children. But guess what she did, she put him down as the father. Ray was pretty mad about that. Then I had an idea to sue her for custody of the boys. Give her cash to go away and leave them with us so they will be safe.

Ray
I am mad as hell about Carla putting my name down as the father, apparently she used our marriage certificate to get my name on the birth certificate and a new drivers license. How they took her conniving word on anything is beyond me. But it is what it is. Isobella told me we should sue for custody of those babies. I know if I do that Anastasia will know Carla is up to her old tricks. It is all about money with her and she will not go away easily if we show interest in saving the babies she will definitely use it to her advantage like she did with Anastasia. I told her Brad called and was looking for her and she turned white. I told her that I could tell him about her arrival. She suddenly fainted from fear.

Carla
I had no idea Ray had gotten married and now I am faced with his wife telling me how things are going to go. I don't like being told what to do by anyone, but I have no choice in the matter and I am found being told how things are going to go. I don't think Isobella is going to let me get anywhere near Ray to talk to him privately. He said if I don't do as asked he can call Brad and let him know I am here in Seattle and I faint. I find myself on the cot in the nursery with the woman called Prescott watching over me and the babies. Apparently everyone else is asleep. I try to leave the room, but the woman follows me and only allows me access to the kitchen. She watches me like a hawk. The babies start crying and I heat up two bottles after I ate a sandwich and drank water. I really needed a stiff drink, but I couldn't find any alcohol in the kitchen. Ray was never much of a drinker, so they might not have anything in the house.

Carrick
Ray asks me some very strange questions about birth certificates and marriage licenses and if he were named as a father on birth certificates as a father could he get custody of those children from their mother. I finally get him to tell me what is going on and I will look into it and get back to him on it. Well we can now know Grace Ana isn't Carla's child. Unfortunately Carla has arrived with twin sons and used Rays name as the father and going by Steele again. He wants her gone before she tries to contact Anastasia and tries to leech onto her and tries to wrangle money out of her. She probably wants more than money after what Ray said. She definitely wants something and using the twin babies to try to get it. Isobella is having her watched like a hawk. Security is tight on Carla. I'm sworn to secrecy but I'm sure he won't keep me to that and knowing Carla, she will find a way to Anastasia.
