Austin deemed that it was time to follow Sally's advice and teach George a lesson because he would stop at nothing to see him leave the family.

He paced around his room, waiting for the right moment to sneak into his father's room and do what he had in mind. While pacing around and thinking, an idea stuck in his mind which was the only way he would not end up being blamed afterward.

He decided to act like he was going to visit a friend and wasn't home. He boldly made it known to most of the family members, especially Anna, that he was going out to visit a friend.

She had insisted that he stay back and have dinner with them but he refused and walked out in a hurry, claiming that it was important. When he had walked out of everyone's sight, he turned around and went back to the mansion through the back door and straight to his room.

    Austin raised the suitcase and shook it, all the money poured on the ground to the surprise of everyone present. Anna went mad with fury as she looked at it before looking at George who was stunned and had an unbelievable look on his face."I can explain that I'm not doing this, it's clear that I have been set up," George pleaded immediately but Austin laughed in return."Who do you think would set you up? Are you worth it?" He asked him."Please listen to me sir," he said looking at sir Matt, he didn't even care about Austin because he knew that he would never care to listen and deep down he suspected he was the one behind it."Why do you think I would listen to you, son of a bitch," his father-in-law barked with rage and fury in his eyes.

    "Josh, what are you talking about?" His mother asked him as she bent closer to look at him."I was the one that stole from Grandpa," Josh said, still crying.Austin laughed, not believing Josh as he saw him as an ignorant little child."Wow, did he bribe you to say this in case he is caught, I bet he wasn't that foolish," Austin said out loud to everyone's hearing."Are you sure about what you are saying?" Anna asked Josh. He concurred by nodding his head."I didn't like how uncle George is being treated by everyone here. He is always called names, insulted, and looked down on by everyone. Uncle Austin is always at his neck, trying to make him feel less of himself by making him have low self-esteem but it still didn't make uncle George less of who he is which made me love him and want to be like him. I always find him sad so I wanted to make him happy. I thought taking money from Grandpa and giving it to him would solve the problem. I couldn't ask him in person because he would not ag

She tried to act like she was right as she had always done but she couldn't because she still felt so disturbed.She sighed and got down from the bed. She walked to the couch to meet George and at least apologize for how he had been treated by her all this while."Hey!" She managed to fall softly but on hearing her voice, George acted like he was asleep but she didn't leave. She still squat down beside the couch and faced him."I know I have been terrible with the way I had treated you all this while. I know I had never been supportive because I was never in support of us from day one but I just want you to know that I am sincerely sorry for

    George exchanged a look with Sally before starting his questions. "Why are you like this? You wouldn't have been born to be evil." He has been wondering about the question for a long time now and he only had time to ask about it then.Sally sighed. "That should not be your concern George but if you want to know, I was born as a sweet girl but that sweetness suddenly disappeared when my father lost his job. Your family caused that and my mom wanted revenge but couldn't do it by herself. She had been bittered since the death of my father who died recently because of the delay when ma'am Patricia opposed the marriage and got hospitalized. My mother wanted her revenge then, so she put up a test for us all which I was able to pass without much stress but I was a child that's not trusted, I was too sweet to do evil tasks, so another task was brought up which got me thinking and all that.""Do you know that I had a lover then?"

    "George?" Sally's smile dropped immediately. "What are you doing here?" She asked as she looked around, trying to detect if George was playing a prank on her."I'm here to see you, you know Chris right, don't look for someone else!"

"Come on Sally, why are you silent? We're here for business, then let's proceed with it or isn't that why we're here?" George asked her as he pretended to be removing the dirt from his nails.Sally laughed crankily, desiring to play smart. "What are you talking about George? We're here for business? Will you mind me asking you which business that is? Because I don't remember engaging in a business with you." She said with a fake confused look."Oh Sally! Allow me to refresh your dumb brain then.

    "Like I was saying, you shouldn't trust these women, they are evil.

Sally has never loved him, I can attest to that. Even Austin knows too," Josh replied as he watched Sally and her mother who had already sat on a couch in the ward."What are you suggesting I should do now?" Anna asked as he looked a
