“You think I’m going to destroy you now? I hardly recognize you anymore, Heather! You used to begentle, understanding and gracious. You were a woman who would go through hell and high water forthe Lopez Corporation and a woman who would stand firm in court to protect the company’s interests.Look at you now!”
“And why do you think that is, Jeffy? If it wasr fer Dorothy snatching Everett away from me I…
“Oh, so if Dorothy hadn’t come along do you think Everett would’ve fallen for you? Don’t make melaugh! I’m not in the mood for pointless chatter. If you won’t admit your faults. then I’ll go to Everettmyself”
As he was about to hang up, Heather brake in. “You cant go, Jeffrey! If you do this. I will never forgiveyou”
Jeffrey frowned, feeling closer to the truth, “What are you so afraid of?”
“Because your going to Everett with all this will only worsen his impression of me You can dig into mylife all you want, but don’t let Everett dig into this mess
She knew if Everett got involved, things wouldnt be as simple.
Having planned to quietly deal with the child, Heather never expected Jeffrey wouldn’t give up! Heseemed even more invested than Everett.
“Heather are you really that stubbom? I’ve told you before hand over the child now and I won’t letEverett know about this, I promise! Just spare the child, for my sake. But if you refuse, don’t blame mefor what happens next‘
Caught in a heated argument Heather suddenly solvered. She sobbed on the other end of the line.
“How do you expect me to prove my innocence? I had nothing to do with the child’s disappearance. Doyou want me dead? Will you only believe me if I’m dead?
Jeffrey was speechless.
*Fine! Il die! You all despise me anyway considering me a burden. I can’t live like this anymore, withevery scandal and smear landing on my shoulders might as well die, then you won’t have to insult meanymore!”
Her plea made Jeffrey doubt.
-Could he have winged her?
“Swear to me you didn’t harm the child.”
1 swear! If Thawe, may never rest in peace Heather sware without hesitation
After all, she never believed in these things,
People say God can provide blessings and retribuliers, but all the times slie prayed during herchildhood, hoping for a better life, did God hear her?
No! God never blessed her! The public humiliation and the disdainful glances never ceased.
Since blessings were never given, she believed retributions would be the same
“Fine, I believe you for now” Jeffrey sighed, ending the call.
Maybe he was just too desperate, thus making rash decisions.
Although he disapproved of Heather’s actions, he didn’t want to wrong hert After all, she was the onlywoman he truly loved. The old Heather was truly dazzling
At the hospital, the director personally welcomed Everett. He dared not show any negligence.
“Mr Lopez welcome. I didn’t know you were curning Inday, my apologies for not being able to greet youproperly.”
Everett glanced at the director, too busy for pleasantries.
I need you to pull up all of Dorothy’s medical records, not a single page missing.
“Okay, I’m on it!”
