Days passed, and Maurice was finally discharged from the hospital but as time passed Hadley kept getting withdrawn because of her father's pressure on her.He kept pressuring her about her sister's health, and making different threats about her so that Hadley couldn't succumb to his threats. She hasn't come up with a plan, and she couldn't inform Maurice who just woke up to help her out.“What are you thinking about?” Maurice asked, and Hadley jolted in fear hearing his words because she didn't know that the man was behind her.“When did you get here?” she asked, trying to get the man's hand off her but the man wasn't letting her go.He could sense that she hadn't herself the past few days, and it might be that his secret fears were finally surfacing.Maybe she wanted to leave him, Maurice thought, but he was planning to hold onto her no matter what.“Did you just get out of the shower? You have to change or you are going to catch a cold!” she reprimanded seeing that Maurice was dripp
The whole ballroom fell into silence, and Nicholas's gesture raised an eyebrow to everyone in the room, and they were all curious as to what Hadley was going to do. “What are you doing, Mr. Sanders?” Hadley asked through gritted teeth warning the man to behave herself, and she wondered why Maurice was silent on the matter.He wasn't that quiet, so she understood what was going on. Maybe she should be worried after all.“I am asking you to dance, Mrs. Elliot? Did you find it so wrong?” he asked, and she hissed hearing his words.She was sure that he was trying to get Maurice to lose his temper in front of those people, and when Hadley started wanting to lash out at the man, Maurice interrupted her.“You are really funny, Mr. Sanders I almost mistaken you for a comedian instead of a businessman. How could you ask my wife to accompany you?” Maurice asked, and his chilly voice resonated through the room, and the bustling atmosphere dampened.Maurice has that effect, his voice alone was e
The starry night was illuminated by the moon, but Hadley felt gloomy as she looked at it. She was devastated and didn't know what to do.After she left the party while chasing after Maurice, she had this unsettling feeling that something was going wrong, and she didn't even know what that could be.“Are you not coming in, ma'am?" Hadley heard one of the maids ask, and she beamed her a smile telling her that she was fine.“No, I am going to wait for my husband," Hadley replied, asking the maid not to worry about her. Yes, Maurice wasn't home even though they left the party together. He was kind of her to ask her to enter the car but immediately he dropped her off the zoomed off without saying a thing.How was she supposed to explain to him when he wasn't even giving her a chance to do that?“It is all that prick's fault, how could he have hugged me? That demon from hell should be castrated!" Hadley cursed but she stopped herself seeing that she was yelling at that quiet night.“I just
Hadley's heartbeat increased as she feared who was coming into the room, but she released her breath when she saw the person, who just came in.“Are you okay, ma'am?” The maid, who just entered the room asked, and Hadley let out the breath she was holding.“Yes, I am.” She replied hurriedly, and hid the file she was holding. The maid was suspicious about Hadley's movement, but she couldn't pressure her if she wasn't ready to talk.She wouldn't want to lose her job. “Ok ma'am, then I will leave you to it.” The maid said, as age walked off and Hadley let out the breath she was holding. “Oh my goodness! That was such a narrow escape.” She mumbled.She looked at the file in her hand, and she knew she had to get out of the house before Maurice woke up. She wouldn't want to get caught by the man.“I have to get this to the heartless man before he does something to my sister.” She muttered, and walked out of that room. She got to the backdoor of the house, and sneaked out without anyone seei
The afternoon sun slithered into the room, and Maurice groaned as he turned around on the bed. He has a horrible night, and coupled with his drunk self he has to wake up with a hangover.“Damn!” Maurice cursed as he felt his head banging with a headache, he pried his eyes open gently, and looked around the room he was in.He wasn't surprised that he wasn't in his room because he feared he might do something Hadley would hate him for if he stayed there.“This is crazy!” He cursed as he got down from the bed, but he almost lost his balance because his eyes were a bit blurry. He couldn't believe that he drank himself to stupor. “It's all her fault.” Maurice murmured.A part of him believed that Hadley didn't betray him, but he was too jealous and he acted rashly. He walked to the kitchen to fix himself a hangover soup, but he hoped that he wouldn't bump into Hadley because he feared he might not be able to control himself.He might have fallen to his knees and begged her not to divorce h
An Hour Before The ExplosionHadley, Ella, and their mother were locked in a dark room by their father, with no way out. Hadley looked at her sister, who was in pain, and barely hanging on, and she hated herself for not telling Maurice about her father's plot.He would have prevented this from happening, but she was too stupid to grooved that her father was not the monster he was.“Are you okay, Ella? Are they in pain?” Hadley asked an obvious question, but Ella just chuckled. “I don't think that we should worry about me because I feared that any of us would be able to escape from here.” Ella said.“No, we would be able to escape, believe me, okay?” Hadley assured, but she knew she was the one that needed that assurance.“But how? Did you think we can..” Ella was saying, but she broke into tears. “Why are you crying, Ella? Can you not handle the pain?” Her mother asked, and Hadley got worried.“I'm sorry, I got you all into all this mess.” she said, but Hadley shook her head. “That's
The news about Ella's death reached the Elliott's family, and they all rushed down to the police station to confirm it because it was unbelievable to them. “Where is my son?” Mrs. Elliot asked, and the police officers took her to Maurice, who was sulking at the check room where Hadley's body was placed. “Maurice.” Mrs. Elliot called slowly as she walked to Maurice, but the man didn't bother to look at her. “They are telling a lie, Mom. They are all saying that the woman on that table is my wife, how can that be?” Maurice blurted, and his mother's feast aches watching her son suffer so much. Her eyes trailed to the body on the table, which was covered with clothes, and she knew that officers couldn't be wrong with the identity. “Maurice, please, I'm sure that they couldn't be wrong with the identity of the body..” Mrs. Elliot was saying, but Maurice cut her off. “What did you mean by body? How is that a body? What if she is my wife, she has a name and..” Maurice trailed off seeing t
Inside the Gilbert’s mansion, Robert was seen sitting alone in the living room. After Robert Gilbert, Hadley, and Ella's father, ordered for the explosion of the building, he went home like he did nothing wrong to create a perfect alibi for himself. “Hello, I hope you did a clean job.” He breathed into his phone as he watched the news broadcasting about the explosion of the building. “Yes boss.” The person at the other end of the phone assured him.“That's good, make sure you go into hiding because the police might get up to something we wouldn't want, right?” He said, hanging up on the phone.He would make sure that he cleaned off any evidence that might make the people suspicious of him. He needed to save his empire, and if sacrificing his two daughters was the price, he surely wouldn't hold it down.“Now that I have this with me, I don't think anything would ever stand in my way in the business world.” Robert beamed, and he picked up the file to go to his room, but his wife rushed
Maurice was transported to a room in the hospital after he fainted in the hospital's hallway, and the doctors attended to him. They couldn't find the reason for his rash, but they ran a test on his brain, which he was examined to be suffering from shock.“What are you saying, doctor?” Mr. Elliot, Maurice's father, asked the doctor because whatever he was hearing sounded strange to him. “It's just as you heard chairman, your son might be suffering from a great shock which leads to his allergy coming back.” The doctor said, referring to Maurice's allergy to woman's touch.“But that's not possible, I mean he doesn't have the rash, no matter who he touches now and..” she was saying, but the doctor interrupted her.“I understood your stance ma'am, but that doesn't change the fact that his allergy has returned, and it might be best if you consulted a psychiatrist.” The doctor said, and Mrs. Elliot burst into tears.She didn't know her son was that vulnerable, and his wife's death would be a
