Lucy thought Simione's dilemma was over but she was very wrong. That night when she tucked the girl to sleep, Simione scread all over for minutes because of a terrible nightmare.
"Simione!"
"No please! No please!" The sleeping girl rolled over and over on the bed. Her voice was filled with fear and panic as if so horrible monster visited her dreams.
"Simione, it's ! Simione wakes up!" Lucy, with her strength, woke the girl and when she did, she was crying again all over.
"Lucy, help ! Help Lucy," Simione wailed restlessly. She was dreaming about the whole ordeal of her abduction—how fears, her uncertainties, her wishes of death and hopelessness. Only when the night ca and her body relaxed did she realize the trauma that was brought by what she had gone through the last few months. It was horrible, specially than she had learned and saw so much in the prostitution house, things that she should have never learned and saw as an inexperienced woman.
"Simione…..I'm here…hush now…" Lucy had been warned about Simione's trauma. The doctor who had the girl checked earlier told her it was prone to her to have one especially with all the things she experienced. Filled by guilt of not being able to save Simione right away, Lucy could help but shed a tear in secret. Of course she can't let the girl know she too was very affected and that she was very hurt by what Simione experienced.
'Damn the Han's! I hope they never have a good life'
Lucy cursed them. How could they be this cruel to do this to Simione? They were supposed to take care of her and yet they treated her less of a human being.
That night, neither Simione nor Lucy was able to anticipate the impact of the kidnapping, not until many days had passed and Simione beca more restless. When they ca back to Devon City, Lucy hired a therapist for Simione but her recovery took years, two years to be exact. Her abduction caused so much damage in her emotional and ntal health and so she was thoroughly unwell and struggled to function well on her own.
To make her occupied and as part of her therapy, Lucy made Simione her personal assistant for two years so that she could be wherever she was. During the day, Simione tails the singer wherever she goes, taking the role of her assistant in the entertainnt industry and at night, the girl would do all of Lucy's school stuff.
Lucy this ti was still a graduating student, as Simione graduated ahead of her and since it was also this ti that her career as a singer started and flourished, she had gone pretty busy to keep up with her school. It was Simione then behind the scene who made the whole thing possible.
With regard to the threat in Simione's life, being under Lucy's care, she made sure the Han's wouldn't know she was still alive. Besides, her circle was pretty tight as she was a singer and so she had guards everywhere. She also had Simione keep a very low key profile, disguising as a simple assistant where in fact the girl was totally overqualified for the job. However, since Simione was still unwell and Lucy had to watch over her, she forbade her from taking any other job.
After two years, Simione recovered well. This was the ti that Lucy started teaching her how to fend for herself and how to make sure nobody could recognize her, nor track her. She had soone teach Simione so basic self-defense and other stuff that would co in handy and help the girl if soone attempted to hurt her again. After that, Lucy allowed Simione to go on with her personal plans and pursue whatever she wanted in her life.
Simione was always thankful for Lucy with all the help she did for her. Gabriella too supported her and helped her in any ways she could.
When she started getting back on track, Lucy suggested that Simione would pursue her first plan on going into El Tigre's company. She heard that the benefits and salary there were excellent and that their employees were kept very confidential and so Lucy thought it would be the perfect company for Simione.
Besides, it had always been Simione's dream to work with El Tigre and be ntored under him and so she did pursue such a plan. Luckily because of her good academic background, she was accepted into El Tigre's company and got promoted after a few years until she landed on being one of El Tigre's many research secretaries.
After a few years of working under El Tigre's company, she beca interested with law, especially that the departnt she was in was working under El Tigre's law firm-Umbresio Law Offices. So later on, she took the company's sponsorship and studied law, taking only night classes. Her life then went well, she beca very independent and was able to fend for herself more than Lucy expected. Simione's salary too was very compensating and even her job was envied by many. Lucy and Gabriella could have never been more proud.
However, Simione's peaceful life was disturb when she saw the news of a famous ballet dancer—Lyndon Tang eting an unexplained car accident, followed by grandfather William's being accused of embezzlent.
Of course, Simione couldn't just bear to ignore that the Tang's then specially that they needed help and so she reconnected with them specially when she realized that no one was helping them now. Grandfather William was involved in embezzlent and so none, even his close friends wanted to help him afraid of being implicated. It was such a serious offense accompanied by public hate and so no one should want to share with the public's hate.
The Tang's comfortable life crumbled just in one night and all their assets were frozen and so to help them, Simione paid off for Lyndon's dical fees and spent the rest of her savings helping with grandfather Tang's case.
Later on, another news ca that made Simione very angry—it was Feather and Hawk's engagent. This made Simione suspicious about what happened to the Tangs and realized their misery was because of Feather wanting to get rid of Lyndon so she can have a clean start with Hawk Monsanto.
Enraged, Simione created the Feather Project.
