No one can answer that question, eveyone goes to a window to see what's going on. They see a crowd of citizens bellow them infront of the gates. Some hold signs and other posters.

Fifty six hours later and Marie lay in the bed white as a ghost and sweat dripping down her face. Eyes closed and breathing even you would think her asleep.

They decided to name her Rosalinda Castillo-Flores. She barely go to hold them before her long time friend and servant ran off with her daughter. Seconds later her husband Nick ran off with their son, both to England.
