80. "I want to kill her! I want the damned bitch dead!Oh my goodness.My baby boy.My baby boy.Mama is so sorry.I swear I didn't know.How could I have known?"On the other side of the city, things were worse in the Philips home.All along, they had been lying to the Philips matriarch that it was Macy who didn't want to come back home.They told the old lady that Macy had refused to stay in the same house with Angela and when she tried asking Macy, Macy just went with the flow for she didn't want to worry her grandma.She also knew that if she told the old lady the truth, the other family members, her parents to be precise, would deny everything and back up their adoptive daughter whom Thwy treated better than their real one.Macy didn't want to argue with them and she was waiting for the right moment to drop the bomb and this was better than she had expected though she didn't know that she would also revisit old wounds at the same time."But she might be under the influence of a d
81. Macy let Richard lead away from that room and she felt like she was in a dream.Seven years ago, she was still that naive girl who had come from a small village in rural Connecticut and had thought that Angela had her interests at heart. Weren't they sisters after all?She thus still believed it when Angela said that she was sorry for all the pranks she had pulled on Macy and that she wanted to apologize.That was why and how Macy found herself in the hotel with Angela where her drink was spiked.She wasn't sure if it was the food or the drink but she had been drugged and her body was on heat.Through her stupor, she could tell that Angela had organized for men to sleep with her and the last thing Macy wanted was to lose her virginity to strangers.She had talked to Andy earlier in the day and he had promised her that he would return and she had even taken the key card at the receptionist.She was ready to give herself to him because he had proven to be a good man who had waited
82. Macy looked at Richard long and hard and decided that this was the prize she was to pay for what she decided to do to Angela.She knew that she wasn't worthy to be with Richard for he was a good man and deserved a good woman but she wasn't that.The fact that she had slept with someone she didn't know made her feel dirty and like she wasn't worthy.Even though she loved the child she had carried and loved with albeit for a few months, she hated herself.But on the other hand, she was happy that the man was unknown for had he been known who UT was, she was sure that she would have been forced to marry him and that was something she didn't want to live with.She wanted to be free and do what she wanted.She this decided to tell Richard everything and make him realise that she wasn't worthy to be called mama by Mel.She didn't talk in the vehicle and Richard didn't push her.She waited until they came to the villa and luckily enough, Mel was asleep and she thus wouldn't have to prete
83. “Where are you?” Richard asked Ash through the phone.“I am at the company.We are preparing a story to back up Macy’s claims because I think that the Philips might do something to try and protect their precious daughter,” Ash said as he and the PR director of A+ House of Entertainment went through that recording of Angela’s confession again.“Let Cash handle that. I need you home.Let’s meet in your villa right now,” Richard said and his voice sounded urgent.“But isn’t Cash on the other drug case?” Ash asked.Since that day someone had stolen their truffles, Cash had been sent to infiltrate that organization and he was already in and had already gathered a lot of incriminating evidence but he was not yet done.“He can take a break for a while.Just come, I will call him,” Richard said and hang up.He knew what Cash was doing was important but not as important as what he wanted to do.This was a matter of top priority and he would and could stop even the running of his company fo
84. “What is it Asher. Speak,” Richard spoke in a low voice because he was already losing his patience with his brother.Ash knew very well that the last thing he needed was to make Richard angry at and with him.“That day, I found a bracelet in the beddings.It was golden and I thought it must be the girl’s because it was feminine and I thought that the owner would look for it and we would give it back if it was important but no one came forward.“I am sorry that I did not tell you about it at that time,” Ash apologized but looking at Richard, he got opposite of what he expected.Instead of Richard being angry at him, he was smiling.“Are you okay brother?” Asher asked his brother who was standing there looking as if his mind was far away.“How about eh security footage?” Richard asked.“She came at night and since she came to your quarters, the corridor was all dark and when she left the next morning, she was facing down and we didn’t catch her face.Only her long dark flowing hair
85. Macy woke up with a splitting headache that she almost thought she was having a migraine.“Ouch!” She held her head as she tried to open her eyes and move.Richard was done with his research and investigation to the hospital Macy gave birth to and he, in fact, had realized that the hospital was owned by one of his classmates in high school.Richard was never a social person since he was young and so, he rarely kept acquaintances who didn’t benefit himself with anything and that was the same reason why he didn’t have any friends.But with a few calls here and there, he had managed to get the number of one Aniston Mowlie who owned the hospital and was its CEO.He had inherited it from his father and he had done well for himself for it was thriving and he had managed to open other branches in other states.Richard didn’t care that it was four in the morning and he dialed the number one of his people jad sent him.“Fuuuck! Why call this early?Better be quick. I slept late and I am st
86. Macy opened her eyes forgetting about eh pain for a bit as she looked at Richard with her mouth agape.She wondered if she had heard him wrong.The previous night, she had opened her heart to him and told him everything.She had told him about the drugging by Angela and the fact that she had had a baby with and for a man she did not know.She was at a point where she could not keep dragging the issue for long because Angela had already confessed that her baby was alive.Macy knew that she could not trust Angela but she also hoped and dared believe because at that time, Angela was under the influence of the truth potion and she knew that at that moment, Angela could not have lied.That was why she had told Richard the truth in the hopes that he would let her go.She wouldn’t mind because she knew that she didn’t deserve such a good man as Richard.That was why she even made her heart not even think of falling for him.She knew that falling for him would just ruin her because such a
87. Richard went to the study and looked at the pile of DVDs his butler had placed there.These were all from that hospital where Macy had been told that she had lost her child and Richard wanted to look at all of them.He wanted to see if Angela ever visited that hospital and if she did, who she talked to.He wanted to start as Macy slept and the when she woke up, they would do it together to expedite the process.He took his laptop and fired it up.He then placed a call to his butler and said just one word, “coffee,” and hang up.The old man knew that whenever Richard asked for coffee, he meant lots of it because he was going to be working for a while.He then inserted the first DVD to the player and clicked play.He fast forwarded it to a speed of four because he did not want to miss anything.There was nothing on the first tape and he did the same with the second as she sipped the coffee that had already been brought in a big flask that would keep it hot.In the other room, Macy w
