Did it really surprise him that Marilyn’s lawyers had managed to get her out from under Calvin’s grip? No, if he had been her lawyer he’d have done the exact same thing, and though he’d thought it was a possibility that it might happen later on, he’d not actually expected it during that meeting.
He’d thought it would have been done with them agreeing to move her to Cliffside, and that she’d just never make it to the estate is all. She would leave the hospital as planned to, with him or Calvin and her lawyers,
and then just not arrive. It was how he would have done it. It seems the Stevens were more industrious about
their moving in the shadows, than even he won.
He also knew that Marilyn could afford to have that many lawyers around her, she made quite a nice profit.
and also had the millions that Calvin had given her in the divorce as well. Talking Calvin down wasn’t an easy thing to do, but it was needed. And it did appear that at this moment in time he’d managed to do so.
Those very words he’d spoken about him holding Marilyn hostage in order to get to Marrin, had seen his friend actively think about that very thing, and he’d seemed to have realised he was going to do that, keep
Marilyn against her will out at Cliffside to get to Marrin, and he’d actually checked himself.
Calvin hadn’t thought that far ahead about what he would do when Marilyn was fully recovered, or if Marrin just never turned up. Which, of course, she wasn’t going to be able to, due to them being one and the same. Something he was actively keeping from Calvin for the man’s own sanity, and Marilyn and her children’s safety at this time.
He and Anabell were still working on that, getting the solid undeniable proof of Marilyn being Marrin. He was certain that the Stevens had also come to this conclusion and, with Calvin’s behaviour, they’d also agreed he was likely an abusive ex–husband. Whether they had told Marilyn herself yet, he didn’t know.
It could well be that Marilyn herself had figured it out and told them what she thought, then decided she also wanted to get away from Calvin, due to his terrible behaviour, and she needed to keep her children safe from him as well. Even if she thought they were his, she was just trying to protect her children from what she saw In the man. No one could blame her for that, not even Calvin.
Wil had already had a private meeting with Dr. Casey Jonston and gotten a description of the two boys
that
were with Marilyn. The man had stared at him for a long moment and clearly did not want to divulge that Information to him. Wil had sighed internally. If he wasn’t willing to tell Wil, then he’d definitely not told Calvin, and there was a reason for it in that man’s eyes.
“Please, Casey. I’m not going to show or discuss this with Calvin in any way at all,” and he wasn’t. If they looked like Calvin even in the smallest of ways, Calvin would be on his jet to Virginia to hunt them all down and make them come back home with him. Because that would be in his eyes and mind all the proof he would need that she was Marrin, and he’d be on a mission of I will get what I want, regardless of what she or
her children wanted.
“You’re aware William of his actions against Marilyn, yes?” Casey had asked him seriously.
“Yes, all of them.” Wil had nodded, “I understand your concerns, but you yourself know how happy they were.” He counted the man’s words.

“Really! I don’t know if I believe anything where Calvin and Marrin were concerned anymore. If he loved Marrin, William. Why would he harm her, if he really thinks she is Marrin?” Casey had questioned him with a
full frown. “As a doctor who’s seen many abuse victims and, now, I’m her doctor, I have to protect her from harm. It’s my duty of care,” he stated.
1 do understand that, and that is why it’s just you and I in this office and there is no Calvin,” he’d sighed and
looked at the man for a long minute, then stated, “I do know now that Marilyn is actually Marrin. She changed her name the day after their divorce was official, and left on her own terms. Not even I’ve told Calvin
that, and at this point, I won’t be,” he admitted.
“Why’d they get divorced?” Casey asked directly.
“That is complicated, but Calvin did have his reasons. You’re also aware that he was in Italy waiting for her
plane to land, right there to see it crash. Their divorce is not what it seems. But it had to happen for other
things to fall into place. Only Marrin wasn’t informed of Calvin’s reason, hence this colossal mess we’re in
now,”
“Does he love Marrin or hate Marrin?” Casey asked with a heavy sigh. The man had listened and seemed to understand he’d thought.
“He loves Marrin, but all those other women, pretending to be her, have royally screwed him up, and he thinks anyone that looks like her needs to be outed and punished by him for trying to trick him. That’s how this happened and got out of hand.”
“It’s not right William, she did nothing wrong to him,” Casey muttered.
“Tm aware,” Wil nodded. “And I’m working on it, sorting it all out. It’s not going to be easy for me, certainly not fun for him or Marilyn. And when I do tell him after many months of him letting it go, and learning to come back to normal, the actual truth is likely going to nearly kill him. When he realises he has injured the woman he actually loves, solely because of a dark, twisted obsession where he thought she was an impostor,” He sighed. Even now, Wil was not looking forward to that day arriving, even though he knew it was months away.
“Then just stay out of it, and don’t tell him William. She has no memories of him or being Marrin. Her medical files state she actually has amnesia, so we should all just leave it alone,” Casey told him,
“The boys, Casey… if not for them and what I suspect, seeing you’re doggedly dodging my questions about them. That is the problem. If they’re not his, I will leave it alone completely, and never tell him, but if they are his… as I now suspect, he has a right to know about them and they him. Who their dad is and live the life they should have been given from the moment they were born….
“Calvin loved Marrin and wanted a family with her. That was in fact the very reason for their divorce. Their original prenup had many clauses, one that prevented them from starting a family.” He told Casey, it was close enough to the truth..
Casey frowned deeply, “That could be amended without the need for a divorce. A post–nuptial agreement.
could have been made.”
“Oh, I know that. I tried to talk Calvin into that, but he’s so bloody stubborn and set in his way of thinking. He had a grand plan in his mind and wouldn’t let it go. He couldn’t see that it was going to backfire on him, which of course it did. Calvin is highly intelligent but emotionally stunted at the same time. Like most geniuses are. They think they are always right, even when they’re not.”
“So you want me to help you get them back together?” Casey sighed heavily now.

“No, all I want from you is to see the boys, to know how old they are and what their names are. All of these things I will keep to myself until I believe Calvin has gotten past his obsession, or can at least be in control of himself around Marilyn,” Wil told him. “I know there will be footage of the boys here as well.”
Casey nodded, “Something I myself kept from Calvin, because of all that was going on with Marilyn, and all he’d done to the others that looked like her,” he muttered. Casey did know that Calvin wasn’t actually a monster of a man. He could see that he was a tortured soul, that just wanted to be left alone by those claiming to be Marrin.
He stood and motioned for Wil to follow him and took him to security and had the footage of the day Marilyn was taken to the VIP room brought up for him to see. The two boys were right there with her.
“Twins, both with black hair and hazel green eyes.” Casey had stated “I made sure that was kept from Calvin due to the circumstances.” He had the photo printed out and gave it to him, it wasn’t the best quality but at least it was something, “I read in her medical file that she found out she was pregnant during her stay in the hospital, after her emergency surgery. They’re lucky to have survived, as was she.”
Will nodded as he took the picture and looked at it. This was going to help with proof, now he just needed to get a DNA test done, though that would be more difficult to get. He didn’t even know where, in Virginia, Marilyn lived. But if they were Calvin’s boys, as he suspected, that would also prove Marilyn was Marrin, and he could register her DNA on file, so this couldn’t happen ever again.
