Isabelle going to the hospital where the victims from the fire were taken.
She heard some of them mourning after losing their loved ones. Isabelle tried to incite them against Mayumi and told them that she was responsible for the fire in the factory. She said that Mayumi had used substandard materials for her building.
When Mayumi went out to meet the affected families, the women attacked and blamed her for the loss of their loved ones. Bryce, Sasha and Mum Baby defended Mayumi and told the grieving families that she was not to blame. Bryce managed to calm them down and said they would take full responsibility after the investigation was done. Isabelle watched with Nikki and Ariana, glad that Mayumi was finally going down.
Later, Isabelle met up with Jigs to pay him and thank him for doing a good job. She gave him a bonus and told him never to come see her again. Jigs asked if she had any other assignments for him and Isabelle said she would call when she needed him.
Francis was eager to go back to Manila after finding out about the fire at Mutya organics. The weather was bad so the boats were grounded and they couldn’t leave. He told Grace about the fire but asked her not to tell Luisa because she would worry.
Luisa spoke to Francis about his relationship with Mayumi. She said that she wouldn’t hold him responsible for what Froilan had done so she would support his relationship with Mayumi. Francis said he was grateful to hear that from Luisa and was eager to win back Mayumi.
The following morning, Isabelle met with reporters and paid them to make it seem as if Mayumi was negligent and therefore responsible for the fire at the factory. When Mayumi met with the reporters, they hounded her about the fire. Bryce told them that they should not blame Mayumi and they would soon find out what caused the fire after an investigation.
Hernan found out about the fire in Mutya organics from his house staff. He told Isabelle that he wanted to visit Mayumi and the grieving families to show his support. Isabelle thought it was not necessary but Hernan said he had to do it because Mayumi was his stepdaughter.
During the wake, Mayumi shared her sincere apologies to those affected. She said that her staff were like family to her and she therefore hurt to see them gone. Everyone was touched by her speech and the grieving families understood that she did not intend for them to lose their loved ones.
Isabelle hugged Mayumi to comfort her but Mayumi shoved her away. Isabelle said that things wouldn’t have turned badly if Mayumi had never gone against her.
Mayumi took this to mean that Isabelle had something to do with the fire. Isabelle said she meant that luck was not on her side hence why Mayumi was suffering from misfortune. Mayumi however said that she was not to blame for the fire.
Hernan told Mayumi that he would help Mayumi with disaster management but Mayumi said someone was already helping them. Hernan therefore said she could ask help if she needed anything. He then left with Isabelle.
After the ceremony, the people who attacked Mayumi apologized to her. They also told her that Isabelle incited them by saying Mayumi used poor materials for the building. Sasha found it suspicious and told Mayumi that Isabelle might have been involved in causing the fire.
At the pier, Luisa, Francis and Grace could finally return to Manila after the weather cleared. Luisa however found out from the news about the fire at Mutya organics and was eager to see Mayumi. Francis decided to call Mayumi so Luisa could speak to her.
When Mayumi received the call, she was skeptical about answering it. We ended as she answered her phone. Keep visiting blastersseries.com for fastest updates.
