Gretchen furrowed her brows as she stared keenly at the TV. She had just returned from work and decided to watch some news. 

"Who could be responsible? Is it her?... No, why didn't she tell me to do the job" She brought out her phone and dialed a number.

"Bonsoir......" She was disrupted by her secret boss's voice.

"English please".

"Sorry ma'am. You sent someone else to do the job" Gretchen said, trying as much not to sound angry.

"I know exactly what you are pointing at. I didn't do it... You are my best soldier Gretchen, why do you think I would ignore you and give order to someone else. Find out the culprit and tell me about it". 

 The call went disconnected immediately.

"Who sent those men to the hotel?" Gretchen wondered as she walked to were how laptop was.

It's not needed, all I need right now is some spaghetti, some ice cream, some chocolates and some ... " She was counting her finger when saying those words, but then she stopped when she noticed the bracelet tied around her wrist. "Who... You?" She asked and Brandon nodded."We have a lot to talk about, but first I wanna ask you this question.....Why did you take the poison?" He asked and Beatrice sighed."At night, I wasn't able to sleep and that was because I kept seeing him. That day at the police station, I saw his files, his family... That little girl won't get to see her dad again, I felt guilty, I couldn't live with the guilt. And also you act grumpy and am left alone, it was a

Um my name is Gretchen" She stretched her hands forward for a handshake."Tina" Mia called and walked away, Tina followed her.

My plan was to make her my friend and from there I get the chance to visit their house, in order to complete my mission. But no, she ruined it... Or didn't fake Kent act well enough?

Don't worry about anything, everything is gonna be okay" Brandon sounded so sure, it made Beatrice worries to decrease."I need some chocolates" Beatrice pouted, making Brandon to chuckle."You don't need it, you want it" Brandon thought she mistook the two words."I don't want it. I can't live without cholocates, am addicted to it" She pouted again."I can't live without chocolates, am addicted to it" Brandon mimicked and Beatrice playfully hit him."You are so annoying, Brandon"."And you are the queen" Brandon retorted and they both laughed."Beatric

    Beatrice came out of the bathroom and didn't see Brandon in the room.She had changed into one of Brandon's bathrobe and a towel was tied around her hair. She sat on the bed and started thinking."I don't know if I am making the right choice right now, like seriously did I do the right thing forgiving him?Well, it wasn't his fault tho, it absolutely wasn't. I am afraid the person who framed me might do something bad now that we are back together, and also I am curious to know what Brandon's dad is hiding. I should probably call him"She searched around and didn't see her phone, that was when it dawned on her that she had forgotten it in Brandon's car."And where on earth is Brandon" She muttered and stood up.She walked to the door and held the handle, she was about opening it when it opened and Brandon walked in."Speak of the devil, here you are".Brandon smiled, he walked in

I already apologised, I know i was a dickhead but I have changed, I will do my best to make you and Trisha happy, just don't leave" He begged."Your dad, he...Actually he told me not to tell you this, but I think you should know. I overheard him talking to someone on the phone, he said..." She paused, she didn't think it was right to say it because she had made a promise not to tell anyone."He said what?" Brandon asked curiously."Nothing, afterall a promise is a promise. But you should be careful out there, and please take care of yourself. I don't want my daughter to become fatherless"."That

Now listen, I want you to do something for me... Whenever you are going anywhere with Mr Emerson, please always text me the address of where you are going to, especially if it deals with business meetings" He explained."May I ask the reason?"."I am afraid not"."Then I can't and won't.
