Marie knows that Lenore has made a valid point even if she doesn't want to admit it. She touches her hand to her stomach and think of the Royal babies in her stomach now. They are due anyday now and the nerves have caused her to go into false contractions before.

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.
