Chapter 22: Chapter 22

yes!! If it isn't, would have given it to you?" I answered back.

"Ahh!!! Thank you so much, ma'am Karol, I will be so indebted to you!".  She turns her back to leave but stopped noticing I held her from leaving.

"What is ma'am?" She asked with so many questions running through her mind.

So I told him everything, she needed to do to gain the same amount of the cheque, if the job is done perfectly, Jenny ran startled look at me, thus I thought she might not accept to do such, but I was wrong, she clenched tightly and said, "I'll do it, ma'am, no matter the consequences".

A hike like Jenny will make evil run at its high peak, at least mine, was for a score I needed to settle, an eye for the sake of my dead parents.

"It's a deal then," I said and watched her leave, donning a weak smile.

After a while, I walked out to the dining room table and met Darren seated already, he shoots me an odd look, *does he knows the truth, and if not then why the look!!" (Seats next to him, and not quite long, Jenny walks past and shoots me a sly smile, it gave me the notoriety that everything has been done, per instructed.

"Let's eat"

Darren let out which nudged my senses back to the food placed in front of me.

(Silence take place, which we kept eating)

While eating, Darren still maintaining the odd glare on his countenance, it got so intense to a point, I almost chocked the whole eating someone else drifts the attention to its self, Mr. Smith alas father in law, struggled to breathe, he falls to the ground, still struggling, to a point he foams out from his mouth.

Out of fear, we drove him to the nearest hospital, I I I I watched from afar and saw them drag my murderous father-in-law of mine into the emergency room, Ravi paced round, eyes fixed at the emergency room, deep down I wished that Mrs. Smith doesn't come out this alive, for all he has done, this should be the least of what I wanted to make him feel for the pains of losing my parents, at a tender age.

(An hour passed)

The doctor walks out of the emergency room, spewing our eyes to him, "what's going on doctor, is my dad okay?" Darren asked, wearing a draggy face.

The doctor took notice of the looks on our countenance and said, "erm!!! We found traces of broken bottles in his system but luckily we got them out on time so he saves them, whereas we need to run some tests to make sure everything is fine".

The doctors' words made no sense to me because I specifically told Jenny to poison him, after handing over the poisoned potion to her, this wasn't planned to be like this.

Darren walks away, feeling emotional, Ravi walks behind to console him, the second their footstep faded away, I left to a secluded spot and phoned aunt.

(She picks up, immediately my call came through).

"Hello aunt," I said through the phone feeling tensed, aunt noticed that something was wrong, immediately I opened up and explained everything to her, she falls short of words for a second, hence when she attempted to speak, the same time, Darren calls out to me, out of fear, the phone slips from my hand and dropped to the floor, that showed him to my exact direction.

He walks further and saw me trying to pick the shattered pieces of my phone from the ground.
