e down as well and blow him a farewell kiss and act all innocent and
1 freshened up real quick and went downstairs to wait for Quinn to come clueless
He probably thinks I’ve been sitting around, doing nothing else apart from being the obedient girl he wanted me to be. I saw the way he looked at her at the hospital when she came to see him with Grandma Mira.
The way his face in up and his gaze was pinned on her throughout her stay in the room
I tried so hard to hide the anger that churned within me, not wanting to show it because it would mean an end to the relationship
Quinn already made it clear that he wouldn’t have anything to do with me if I create a ruckus with Ana again and I wasn’t going to give him the satisfaction he craved.
1 held it in and made sure a single word didn’t slip out of my mouth.
After his short time in the hospital, he left the house with Fleur the minute he entered, with the excuse of going to get some fresh air outside.
He returned very late that night and I knew that he went to see Ana. This got me infuriated but I held it in
If I wanted to get things done. I had to change my manner of approach to things and that was exactly what I would do,
I went to see my mom the next day and the minute I spoke about Ana and her Grandma, she froze. I tried to hear from her what it was that transpired between them but she was a shell of herself throughout my stay.
Telling me not to talk about them or do anything to get them pissed.
Well I told her who was pissed, I was. Not Ana, not her grandmother but me, her daughter. I was pissed at her for not opening up to me and keeping
If I was going to fight them, I needed to know what they said to her and what they were capable of doing, but my mother was not helping matters at
I left there pissed and even more determined to get Ana and her old grandmother for doing that to my mother.
“Good morning my love, you look. spectacular.” I greeted Quinn the moment I caught sight of him coming down the stairs.
He ignored me as usual and walked to the kitchen for a cup of coffee.
“Oh, let me do that for you” I walked ahead of him and picked up his
un his favourite mug
“Hope you know my preference? Two cubes of sugar, half a cup of milk. He said with arrogance as he walked back to the sitting room.
I smiled brightly at him but rolled my eyes when he walked out.
His attitude arricated me, but it wasn’t going to last a while again; my plans were in progress.
I smiled at myself and brewed the coffee.
After taking two sips from the cup, Fleur came in and they left the house together.
I settled on the soda and turned on the news while munching on some chips.
I did a torty–minute roundown, and at the last minute, a video popped up on the screen with a reporter talking about Ana’s restaurant and her use of bad ingredients
A broad unile crossed my face and I rested my back on the sofa to enjoy the news that pleased my
heart.
Id done the work behind the stage
time to enjoy the fruits of what I’d sown.
I woulda i lave gone this far if Quinn stayed away from Ana but he left me no choice when he put this relationship on an indefinite break bur roadtimed to go see the latche
It was then I decided to act from the background. Since he wanted to keep me bound and shut. I would tave other people’s voices to speak.
Chap 35
I was aware of the people he put on me to monitor my movements and so, I traded wisely.
I sent word to the criminal who was still in jail, and with a little help from the insiders, I was able to bring him out of jail.
We had an understanding, an agreement that once I was able to get him out, he would do whatever I wanted. And so I told him what I wanted him to do and he was excited to get it done.
He began to trail Ana’s grandmother, and he called me when he wanted to hit her if he should finish her off at once, but I told him I wanted it to be
He groaned and cut
at the call
He could’ve finished the old witch if I gave him the order.
My men handled all the communications for me to remain anonymous, and when I heard Quinn was on the lookout for him, I quickly leaked his location to the police, knowing that they’d shoot him on sight, and they did. My plan worked.
I went through my phone and smiled at the hate comments and trolls directed at Ana. I could only imagine how confused she’d be seeing all these about herself online
If only I’d learnt about Maya sooner, I would’ve closed her case and ended her career a long time ago.
Iscoffed when I saw som
some comments commending Ana for doing a great job with quality and service.
Just then, a live notification popped on my screen, and I quickly clicked on it to watch, and I saw Maya addressing the situation. I smiled at her words of defamation.
She was damn good at her job
Suddenly, she paused, I bet I heard Wills‘ name. The life ended shortly after, and I couldn’t help but wonder how many people were watching her, how many people heard her say a name.
I went to the dining for breakfast, and after a hearty one, I resumed my scanning for news about Ana, The only noises online were made by the fans of both parties. opposing themselves in the comments.
Ana, but it seemed like both parties went s
silent.
It wasnt part of the plan to go silent in the middle of a crisis; just when we were beginning to win against them, this was the time to put more fire until everyone turned against her.
After a futile wait for info or update, I went back upstairs and tried to busy myself with something else.
It was hard but I made it through the day
The next day, after Quinn went to work, I quickly rushed out to check for updates on the news, but it was silent like the previous day, and Ana’s supporters were posting pictures of themselves in her restaurant eating healthy meals from her kitchen,
I furrowed my brows at this and tried to call Maya but the line wasn’t reachable.
A feeling of foreboding spread through me, and I couldn’t help but think that the name she mentioned on the live video was going to be an implication
I had no idea who else she was dealing with. All I knew was that we had an understanding and a common goal which was to bring Ana down. I didn’t know how she wanted to get it done but I wanted it done.
Just when I wanted to sit down on the sofa, my phone vibrated and even though I was holding it in my hand, I decided against sitting down and got back to paring around.
My heartbeat accelerated when I saw Maya’s name on the screen of my phone.
I packed it up and before I could say a word, she barked.
“What did you do?
