Chapter 56: Chapter 56
Alan changed his clothes and lay down waiting for Joel, his doctor. Joel entered and place the stuff in his hand down beside the bed.
“what are you waiting for?” Alan asked when he didn’t notice any movement from him.
“why don’t we wait till he gets back? If he sees that I try this on you without his permission or testing it out on someone else then I might lose my job and worst still you lose your sight forever” Joel said worried.
“isn't that better than for you to lose your life? You are doing this with my consent and am not paying huge amount of money to nag at me just get it done already” Alan replied getting irritated by his complains.
“fine but am warning you for the last time” he said and inject sedative to make him fall asleep then get to work.
After a long while, he finish and dress his eyes then wait for the effect of the sedative to fade off when Alan’s phone start to ring, he cut the call and put his phone on silence for him a message also came in at the same time

When Vienna got home, the nanny was already back and preparing lunch, she greeted her and head to her room and change out of her clothes then head to the bathroom to take another quick bath. She felt strange in her body and wonder why she is feeling so sweaty even when she didn’t do anything at all. After bathing she wore an arm less short gown for fresh air but still didn’t feel comfortable, she then went back downstairs to get something to eat so she can use some pain reliever and rest after eating. she told the nanny to please wait to prepare dinner as she is feeling sick then took some drug she found in the house and went inside to sleep then she remember the voice recorder Kellie gave her and push her lazy body to retrieve it from her bag then lie down again and press play. A girl’s voice that doesn't sound really familiar was asking a question then she heard her own voice come through and continue listening patiently then she remember what the discussion was actually about.
It was her first year in school and she rent a house outside together with Benita and that day, Benita had bought in one of her friend from the art department who is training to be an actress. That day she just finished from class and was a bit tired to get something for herself to eat so she ask Benita to help her prepare something and in turn she will help her friend practice her lines in the movie she just got a chance to act in. Vienna accepted and they get to it. Although Vienna find the lines weird but didn’t read much meaning to it.
“but why is this with Alan and why will something like this make him misunderstand her? And also why would Benita or anyone record this” she said confused and play it over and over again then realize that there is something wrong with the recording. It is incomplete like as if some of the words where cut deliberately especially Benita’s voice and its mostly her own voice that is heard.
“but still why did Benita and Karen hand this to Alan? Its doesn't have anything to do with him or their relationship at all and besides…” she was saying then stopped getting what their real purpose is.
“Benita must have made me practice with her friend on purpose and give this to Alan to make him misunderstand that it was about him” she said as the realization draw on her. Vienna stood up from the bed and took her phone to call Benita out of anger but stopped and decide against it. Seems that she has hated her for a long while and has been scheming along with Karen against her relationship with Alan but she wonder if Benita knows about Karen’s stupid obsession or should she say love for her. She decide to call Alan so she can explain things to him but he didn’t pick up then she send him a message for them to talk but he still didn’t reply and while she was waiting for his call or reply, Alan’s mother call came in and she quickly pick it thinking it was Alan
“so if I didn’t call you, you wont deem it fit to explain things to us isn't it? Just because father covered up your misconduct you think you can escape the punishment? Get here now unless you want me to some people to get you” Sasha shouted through the phone not even giving her the chance to talk. Vienna was shocked by her outburst and move the phone away from her ear a bit
“Mrs Clinton I…” Vienna wanted to reply but she felt too weak to, like every part of her body decide to stop working then she drop the phone subconsciously and her body went limp then she pass out with Sasha’s voice ringing out loud from the phone. Sasha she cut the call angrily that Vienna ignored her and call the nanny to give the phone to her. Nanny went upstairs with the phone in her hand and after knocking for sometime she enter the room and saw Vienna lying on the floor lifeless and screamed out attracting Sasha’s attention on the other end of the call.
“what happened? Why are you screaming?” Sasha shouted through the phone annoyed
“madam, miss Vienna fainted!” she replied and drop the call then bend down to her to help her up after calling her name to wake her up she went to get some water but still no response. She pick the phone with trembling hands and put a call through to Alan before calling for the ambulance After about thirty minutes, the ambulance came and took her away with the nanny following them.
