Matilda called Angus to meet her at the house, to hand her back the documents that Lorenzo signed. He shows up at the house around ten o'clock in the night, that same day. He is dressed in a black suit with a black tie, his shoes are shining and his golden wristwatch makes him look very nice. He rings the bell and waits for her to open the door. She does, in her nightie, and she looks very surprised to see him dressed in a suit at this time of the night. "Oh my God, Angus." She holds her hand over her mouth as she laughs. He gives her a mock bow and this makes her laugh even more. "Where are you heading to dress like that by this time?" "A party." He answers.He hands her the document and she takes it, seeing the signature on it. "I didn't expect you to get it so early." She glances at him. "Mister Lorenzo is a very busy man, How were you able to get him?" "I ambushed him." Angus shrugs. "Ahhh." She nods with an interesting smile. "Well, good job. We will get to work immedi

The place is very quiet and Angus is almost sure that if he breathes too loudly, everyone is going to turn around and look at him. There are at least fifty seats and a few people are talking to each other in very low-pitched tunes. They shake hands around before settling in their seats. Angus sees Greg talking to an elderly man in the front, he looks away and finds a seat for himself in a corner, in the last row. Just as everyone settles down, an elderly man mounts the stage. Someone goes around and shares pamphlets around. When Angus looks at it, he feels his heart stop and begin to tighten. Daniel and Katrine, that's the name of his parents. They look happy in the picture that serves as the cover of the pamphlet. They are holding each other and from the look of it, they were very much in love with each other before they died. Angus feels a warmth on his inside, as he stares at the picture of his parents, he feels like he has known them his whole life. He pulls at his tie

After Lorenzo sees that he has succeeded in calming Angus down, he leaves the room after assuring him that he will be back in a short time. He walks out of the room, shutting the door behind him. He runs his hands through his hair. How is he going to explain to Mister Solomon that Angus saw what he has been trying to hide from him?He exhales loudly as he arranges his jacket, walking back to join the others for the ceremony. He meets the two men at the door, they seem to be whispering to each other, but they stop as soon as he gets to them. They salute him but avoid any form of eye contact with him. He knows that they have been talking about Angus and what happened. He better curb the problem immediately. "Gentlemen, thank you for handling the situation swiftly." He nods at them. "Do you need us to call the police, sir? He looked very dangerous." "No, no need for that." He waves off. "I have handled the situation and there is no need for that anymore." They look at each othe

Angus smirks as he looks at him. "No, man, you are not going to do that." He refuses. "You are going to tell me the names of the motherfuckers that killed my parents." "Sir, I have no idea who they are. Your grandfather never told anyone who they are." "That's some bullshit." Angus fumes. "You have got to know something!" "All I know, I have told you." Lorenzo insists. "I can't lie to you, sir." Angus wants to push some more, but he can see that there is nothing else to push for. Angus stares at Lorenzo and he discovers that if he never found out about his grandfather and how rich his real family is, he would have never imagined someone like Lorenzo would be at his beck and call. Angus rubs his forehead and leaves Lorenzo in the room without another word. The building is very protected around the clock and that means Angus sees security men and women all around the building even though it's almost two at night. He meets the security guard who took his car key, and the man loo

Angus is disgusted with what she has just said. He can see the look on her face, the look of greed and that makes his stomach churn. "Ashley, what are you talking about?" He asks. "I gave you everything, the house, everything we ever had, what else do you want from me?" "Oh, please," she sneers. "You are just trying to form the victim. You weren't open with the judge, you hid some things from me." "Oh, Ashley, why can't you have a heart?!" He wails. "Why are you being such a bitch?" Her hand goes to her chest in shock, what did he just say to her?"A bitch, Angus? Did you just call me a bitch?" Joanna hears the commotion coming up, so she decides to come out to see what's happening. So she tears the door away from Angus, and even though he tries to stop her, she widens it enough for Ashley to see her. "Is something the matter?" She asks. Ashley bites her lip in anger when she sees Joanna. "What's the nosey bitch doing here?" Ashley barks. "You better ask her to go back into

Joanna almost laughs with surprise. This lady has got to be one of the craziest that she has ever encountered in her life. "Um, is this supposed to be a joke or something?" She asks. "Name your price." Ashley urges her. "My husband belongs to the Goldwater family, I am sure that you have heard of them before." "Lady, I don't care!" Joanna snaps. "If you are so rich now, why are you going after Angus when you know that he doesn't have anything?" Joanna sighs, placing her hand over her forehead. "Because you have no idea the humiliation I had to go through. You are a woman, how do you feel when your man can't even buy you a designer bag?!" "I don't feel anything because I bought it myself!" Joanna sneers. Ashley rolls her eyes, this isn't the reaction she was hoping to get. She drops the act of hunting for empathy from Joanna. She can now clearly see that they are different types of people. "Fine, whatever." She shrugs her shoulders. "Stop making me look like the bad person, h

He holds up his hand, gesturing to her to keep calm as he takes a few back. "What the fuck are you talking about?" "Language, sir." "Oh please, don't try to be formal with me. We worked hard for this, especially Matilda, what's going on?" "Sir, I did my part by sending her the email. She has unpaid tax, and her company has also been blacklisted." Angus runs his hand through his hair, he can't believe what he is hearing right now."This has got to be a joke, right?" He asks. "Pay your tax and also try not to step on some big toes too. It's not our fault that your firm gets in trouble with one of those rich millionaires." The lady mutters carelessly. Angus stops, his ears tingling because he heard what he heard. "What did you say?" He questions. The lady, unfortunately, notices the gravity of what she has

Joanna has been waiting for this day for a long time. It was unfortunate that she didn't get her when the raid happened at her house and she fled with her father, but she is ready to shoot her down now. They all walk into the office and shut the door, but Joanna doesn't let her guard down, she is still holding the gun, pointing it at Diane. Diane laughs and throws her hands in the air, in mockery. “Still have an attitude, I see.” “Joanna, drop the gun,” Angus says to her. “This is not the time and place, you know it.” “After what she did to me, everywhere is the place and whenever is the time.” Diane smiles as she leans against the table, she is totally not moved by the gun in her face.

She has a scarf around her neck, luggage at her feet, and a bag in her hand. Angus can't move his tongue, he can't just believe the fact that Matilda is at his doorstep. After he begged and begged for her to come back with him.

The head of his security comes at him, with a confused look on his face. “I'm sorry sir, we were going to turn her back, but she was angry.” The man apologizes. “Timothy said that she's your wife…” “Timothy is right, that's my wife.” Fear covers the face of the man, he can't believe that he almost turned away the wife of his boss. He would have lost his job. “I'm sorry, sir…” “You don

Angus has given this a good thought. He was going to leave her alone, but he decided against it. If there is one thing about Matilda that hasn't changed throughout the years, she can be as stubborn as a mule. If he lets her be, she is going to keep refusing to speak to him, even if it's going to break her down completely. She scoffs at his audacity to come up to her after she threatened to call the police. “Are you kidding me, Angus?” She frowns. “I am going to call the cops!”“Okay, Matilda, you can do that.” He shrugs. “Even if they arrest me, I'm going to just keep coming back, and guess who is going to get tired first?” She glares at him, squeezing her lips together. “You think you can bully me into forgiving you?” She puffs. “You think I'm going to fall for that?” Angus sighs, it seems that her stubbornness has increased over the months. “Look, Matilda, I've been getting your hospital reports.” He says. “Your doctor has advised that you are to be monitored as your date ge

If she knows everything, if she has her full memory back, that means that there is nothing that Angus can do or say that is going to change her mind now. He has a long face, she is staring at him with her lower lip between her teeth. “Yeah, I know it all.” She lets out a painful chuckle. “I know that you worked for me, I know that I had a crazy fiance and I know that you killed him!” “Matilda….” “Oh, I sure as hell know that you are not seriously trying to speak now!” She silences him. “After all you have done?! Are you even serious?!” Angus looks down, running his hand through his face. Everything has crumbled to the ground, he knows that she is not going to forgive him. Can he even ask for her forgiveness? She walks around, looking at him with so much raging hate that she wants to punch his face. “You abandoned me when Greg fucking shot me!” She screams. “What kind of psycho are you?!” “Matilda, you don't understand!” He tells her. “Did you realize that everyone around me w
