Chapter Seventeen - Bribe

Tori's POV

Samantha waited until breakfast was ready and Candy refused to leave my side for once. I could not help but think deep about her dream, she said something bad was going to happen to me. Everything seemed suddenly suspicious, especially with Samantha's arrival. I needed to be very careful around her.

I watched Bill munch on his food, the girls did the same but Samantha and Bill's mother refused to even take a single bite out of the pancakes.

"Mother, do you not like pancakes or would you love me to prepare something else for you?" I asked calmly. I wondered why I still tried to get on Bill's mother's good side. After all, she was clearly not interested in me and wanted Samantha to remain as Bill's wife. Why then was i bothering myself in impressing her?

"No, your food does not smell nice at all. I can bet it does not taste nice too." Bill's mother scoffed, her arms folded and her head up high. She had so much pride that it made me thank the Moon Go

    Chapter Eighteen - Bad GuyTori's POVI stepped into the kitchen hastily and yelled "What was that all about?" My loud voice startled Talia and Samantha. They jerked in fear and turned their heads towards my direction. Samantha adjusted her posture and moved away from Talia, I watched the frightened look on her face change into one of disdain."I asked a question. I said what is going on here? What was that all about?" I repeated with both of my hands on my waist. I was not going to leave until Samantha gave an explanation."What did you see?" Samantha sneered at me. I scoffed in response and shook my head at her while Talia stood awkwardly. "Are you asking me if I saw you hand Talia a huge amount of money? If yes, then of course I saw all of that." I said firmly. I heard a gasp escape from Talia's mouth as she staggered backward. That proved my suspicion, something was definetly off if Talia was that afraid."How about you start minding your own business Tori? Why would you spy on

I felt uncomfortable and i just wanted to leave the kitchen.Bill cleared his throat and walked towards me. He placed his hands over my shoulder and smiled.

You should come to me instead and not to Samantha. I hired you so you should come to me." He said in a stern voice.Talia nodded her head and muttered an apology."Come on." Bill whispered into my ears. He pulled me by the wrist and just as we were about to leave the kitchen. Bill's mother's harsh voice caused us to halt in our step

Even with the cool breeze coming from the fan, sweat still dripped from my foreheadMy eyesight became blurry and head ached. What sort of pain was this? I was able to sleep well last night after my discussion with Bill and the tea helped calm my mind but as early as 6am, I woke up with an excruciating pain. I could not comprehend why I was feeling such pain."Come on Tori, we need to go to the hospital. You do not look good at all." Bill said, his voice was shaky and his breathing became hitched. He sounded afraid and so was I."I can barely move Bill. I feel really weak and I do not want the girls to see me like this." I managed to say, I paused to wince in pain. As I continued to speak, I felt pain wash over me. "The girls are still in their room. I will not let them know about it so please allow me take you to the hospital. It is for your own good Tori."

I yelled. The doctor rushed into the room immediately with a concerned look on her face. She used a stethoscope to check Tori's heartbeat. After a few minutes, she turned me to me and sighed in relief. "She is still breathing but that does not mean she has much time left with her." I muttered a cuss under my breath and ran a hand through my hair in frustration. Why was all of this happening to Tori all of a sudden. "What can be done doctor? Please you need to save her." I said with pleading eyes.The doctor placed a hand on my shoulder and squeezed it tight. "I already told you Mr Bill. She was poisoned by a rare substance and we have not been able to find a remedy yet. We have never experienced such before." The doctor said.His words made my heart race faster.

She flared up immediately and it made me eye her suspiciously. Something had to be up for her reaction to be that way.I was going to get to the root of this. Tori had already suffered enough in the past with her ex husband. I was not going to allow my mother do more harm to her."That was the same thing Tori did to me when we are in the kitchen. She accused me of bribing Talia and now you are accusing us of harming Tori! Why Bill?" This time it was Samantha that spoke. She sounded disappointed and honestly, it did not bother me. There was so much reasons to point fingers at her and my mother."To begin with, you both never liked her. You made her life completely hell yet you expect me not to accuse you both and fall for your sudden care for Tori? No way." I spat out bitterly. My anger came from the frustration that Tori was not g

She was laughing at something on the TV screen but I could barely focus on what displayed on the screen, I guess it was because I was mostly concerned about what Bill would think of me.He had seen Tori's daughters crying in my presence. I was worried that Bill would find out that I was the one who hit them. I could not stand them except for Candy, she was the only one who had a sense of reasoning. The two other girls irritated me."Samantha, what are you thinking about? We have won this battle already. Talia played her part well by poisoning Tori." Regina blurted out.My eyes widened, I immediately cautioned her to keep quiet. "Shush, what if someone is hiding somewhere and listening to our conversation? We would be in big trouble if Bill happened to find out." I said, I was slightly afraid that Talia would eventually confess.She was nothing like me, Talia was innocent. I only

I made sure to add some of their toys in the room, just to make everywhere look like home to them. I sighed heavily as I took a glance around everywhere. The room was cozy, there was a queen sized bed by the corner of the room. One that would be comfortable enough for I and the girls. It was time to pick the girls from school.

I was scared to start the car, I was afriad because my attention was not on the road but on Bill. On the decision of whether to leave or not. Bill looked sincere but how could I trust him? If Samantha had never showed me that image, I could not help but wonder if Bill would have opened up to me by himself? Would he have confessed? Or would he have kept it a secret?I sighed heavily as Millie's voice jolted me out of my thoughts and back to reality. "Why are you not driving mum? We are going to be late for school." She said pausing to take a bite out of her burger. I ran a hand through my hair in frustration. Why was I letting my own emotional pain affect the girls?"Sorry girls. I am just slightly tired. Can we take a taxi instead?" I turned to the girls. Candy and Sienna nodded their heads in agreement, they seemed unbothered about it but were mostly focused on their burgers. I felt M

I suddenly felt bad for the girls, the last thing I wanted to do was disappoint them, I wanted to be a father figure for them.Tori hastily wiped the tears off her eyes and forced a smile on her face. I was so sad right now, I hated that Tori had to pretend to be okay when she was literally breaking down deep inside of her. This was all my fault and I knew that I was going to live with this guilt for what seemed like eternity."Nothing baby. You girls look ready for school already?"

Was it that bad that she would not even look me in the face?"Tori, are you even hearing anything of what I am saying?" I asked. All of a sudden, she turned to gaze at me. My heart shattered into pieces as I saw tears roll down her cheeks. I felt guilt wash over me and my entire walls eventually crumbled. I was shattered just at the thought of knowing that I was the one who broke Tori. I made her this way and I hated myself for it."I am leaving." She blurted out.

He had gone for a party, although he promised me that he would not be taking so long because Bill was never really a fan of parties to begin with. I gazed at the wall clock hanging carelessly on the wall, the time was 11pm, a few minutes before midnight. I ran a hand through my hair in frustration as I calculated how many hours Bill had been gone, for close to three hours. Was he okay?
