Angus is satisfied, surely it's a good thing that he has done for Ashley even though she sure as hell doesn't deserve it. He takes a long sigh as he heads back into the building. He suddenly bumps into someone with the same height as him. "Sorry, man, my bad." The person apologized. "No problem." Angus looks up and is startled. The person he has bumped into is no other than the man he met in the club, Christian Webster. "Goodness, it's you, my friend." Mister Christian laughs. "What a pleasant surprise." They immediately shake hands, they look delighted – like two long-lost friends. "How are you doing, man?" Angus asks. "I'm sorry, but I have to admit that I have forgotten about you." "And I have taken no offense in that." Christian waves off. "We are both busy men, why are we going to blame that on one another?" Even though their meeting is pure coincidence, Angus is happy to finally meet him again. Christian Webster is dressed as fashionable as the first day Angus sees hi

Ashley pulls her eyebrows together. "Wha– what?" "You don't have to spend a single penny, Ashley. I don't know what touched Angus or the anonymous person who paid off your debts, but it's a miracle indeed." Ashley is not religious, she doesn't believe in mere coincidence or miracles. This is not an anonymous savior, this is someone that she knows, but the person doesn't want to be known. "Ashley, are you there?" She quickly brings herself out of the deep thoughts that are raging in her heart. "Yes, yes, I'm here." "Or perhaps it's your husband, Quinton that paid it off. I told you that you were worrying yourself because he was nonchalant, but look what he has done for you." "Yes, of course, Tyler. It has to be Quinton." She laughs. "I better go and prepare him a heavy meal to thank him for this." "Alright, Ashley. Have a nice day." She ends the call immediately. She chews her lower lip as she walks around the place, trying to make sense out of everything that has happened

Angus visits his grandfather again. This is the first time that he is visiting after the "fight" they had. His father ordered him to dump the company and also cut ties with Matilda, but he has returned now that he has found a way around it. He drives his car smoothly into the parking space where he leaves his vehicle. He takes out the key and walks to the front door. It's opened by a servant even before he gets a chance to knock on the door. "Good afternoon, Young Master." The young man bows. "Thank you, good day." Angus returns the greeting. He walks into the house and looks around the place. His mother hasn't descended the stairs to greet him, like she does whenever he visits, where is she? "My mother, where is she?" He asks the servant. "The Mistress has gone to spend a few hours in the park. She said that she misses going out." "I see," Angus says. "And the Master?" "Right behind you, son." Angus feels chills. He turns around to see his grandfather behind him, with a

Angus is leaving after lunch, his mother isn't back yet. Joanna offered to escort her to her car. As they are leaving, Lorenzo comes out of the house too. He walks past them with nothing more than a glance. "Young Master, Miss Joanna." He walks away. He gets into his car and drives very fast down the lane. Joanna is staring down the road that he went, her hands are folded. "Is something going on between you and Lorenzo?" Angus asks her. "Nah, he is just too much of a snobbish dick." She shrugs. "Besides, your grandfather forbids it." "The man is such a killjoy," Angus mutters. She is leaning against the car while Angus is watching her. His eyes are piercing, like he is searching for something deep inside her soul. "Oh, God, don't tell me that you are doing this because of the number of people I have killed." She rolls her eyes. He laughs as he drops his head into his hand. "That's not it, but I do have something I want to discuss with you." He says. "Do you want to go for

It's a surprise that one day Matilda is bedridden and covered in a blanket of sadness and depression, but the next, she is on her feet all happy and gleeful. It's mainly because, somehow, Angus has found the solution to their problem. It was a very selfless move from him that he sold his shares to support the business, she is going to be grateful to him for the rest of her life. She puts her stuff back into her work bag. She doesn't forget her laptop and also her phone. She is going to have breakfast with Angus at a restaurant. Just a small discussion over breakfast as they return back to work. She picks up her bag and takes one good at her immaculate self in the mirror before she steps out of the house. She walks out of the room and heads downstairs, she finds Greg having breakfast all by himself. "Hi, babe." She kisses him. He turns around and smiles at her as he kisses her back. "It's good to see you back on your feet." He nods. "It's such a miracle how the tax problem wa

Matilda finds herself taking a large gulp of air and massaging her chest, she is having anxiety. What's Greg up to? Oh, he is a bit much sometimes, but she doesn't want him to get into trouble. "Please, God, please.."But it seems that God isn't listening to her, her heart is still beating so fast and that's not a good sign at all. After driving for minutes that felt like hours, she finally starts to get to the end of the city. With a few more empty fields and factories, she has gotten very close to Aubrey Hills. Finally, she sights the first building. It's a complex with peeled-off paints and the old walls look like they are crumbling down. Maybe that's why no one comes around here because it's such an eyesore. She manages to go deeper into the hills and she starts to track Greg's phone. Well, he was the one who started to track her because he was an insecure twat, but the ironic thing is that the tracking application he uses works both ways. She slowly drives until she c

Because she is unresponsive, Greg doesn't bother taking her to the house. He drives straight to the hospital and because he is such a popular person, it only takes a brief verbal explanation and Matilda has a room to herself. Greg is seated in the corner, his left leg tapping against the ground. Matilda has a drip connected to her hand and even though she looks like she is just peacefully sleeping, he is very worried about her. She is surely going to have a breakdown when she finally wakes up with the memory of what has happened. She wasn't supposed to be there, why has she got to be so stubborn?Greg spends hours by her side, long hours and he doesn't take a break from looking at her – he doesn't eat or taste water too. Finally, after waiting for hours, she stirs on the bed. Greg immediately stands up on his feet and walks towards her. From the stir, her face starts to move and she holds her head as if it's aching, maybe it's from how terrible she fell when she fainted. "Mat

Matilda doesn't think that she would fall asleep after everything that has happened, but she does. It's such a deep and satisfying rest that when she wakes up and looks at the clock on the wall, it's already the next day. She sits up on the bed and immediately, the scary thoughts start to come back the her head. She summons the courage to go to the door and turn the knob. To her greatest shock, the door isn't even locked. Is this Greg trying to play a trick on her? Is he standing behind the door, waiting for her to come out? She peeps and she doesn't see anyone. She becomes more brave and she decides to step out of the room, one foot in front of the other. She walks down the stairs and just a few steps before he gets to the floor, a sweet scent wafts towards her nose. Greg is cooking. Greg never cooks. Maybe he is planning his last meal before he kills her. She makes sure that she doesn't make any noise, and she creeps into the kitchen. Yes, she's right. He is in the kitch

She immediately feels a chill running down her spine. Greg is the last person she expected to be here, he just left the house a few hours ago. He is still glaring at her, but he reaches into his pocket and takes out a few bills, and passes them to Johnny. "Thank you for your help, Johnny, that's all." Johnny takes the money, mutters his thanks, and walks off with great speed. Matilda takes a few steps backward, he trots into the house, and shuts the door with a loud bang. "What were you thinking trying to get that old man to help you?" He fires. She doesn't reply, she keeps moving backward. Her heart drops when he takes her hands off him and turns to her. "It won't work, Matilda. You have to realize that I am doing this for your good. My decision is final." "Sit." He orders. Because she has gotten herself into so much trouble, she quietly sits down. He walks through and fro in front of her, like an angry parent about to scold his child. "You have disappointed me, Matilda

Ashley finds herself smoking more and more cigarettes. The more she thinks about her interaction with the doctor, the more confused she gets. Why is Angus the reason why the Goldwaters bought the hospital? His mother is a fucking cunt, but neither she nor Angus has that kind of power to warrant such action. She finds herself smoking as she thinks even more deeply about it. What's this mystery and why can't she uncover it? She is in the kitchen, cooking dinner for her unbearable husband, but her brain is working overtime like that of a detective. She is so engrossed, lost in her own world, that she doesn't notice when the pasta starts to burn. Until the dry smell shoots up her nostrils, before she jumps up in alert. "Fuckin' Christ." She tosses the cigarette into the sink and rushes to turn off the cooker. She takes off the lid, but she immediately sheds her eyes from the horrific sight. "Are you kidding me?!" She yells at no one but herself. She puts herself together and
