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

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.

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

She leaves him alone with his mother, he sighs as he touches her arm. "Is… is that she has not been picking up my calls?" She mutters. "Is that why you have never brought her for dinner? I should have known." "I'm sorry, Mum, I should have told you earlier." He admits. "When did this happen?" "Six months ago." He answers. "Angus!" She gasps with hurt. "Six months and you never said a word to me?""Mum, I'm sorry." He takes her hand immediately. "I know that Ashley has been hurtful to you, but you've always seen her as your daughter.

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
