by- Tiana????
Ellen you don’t have to run away from your troubles, instead you should face them, try to use your sense for once,” dad seems so angry too as he yelled at her…..
I knew they were hiding something from me… but what could it be???
“you’re are becoming more stubborn each day Ellen,” dad said slowly..
“Jones.. Jones…,”
mom called and i could hear the fear in her voice i quickly rushed out of the room and was surprised to see dad on the floor.
“mom.. what happen?
“we need to rushed him to the hospital,” she yelled. It’s 10pm and i don’t think we will get a taxi.
“just go and call Cyril,” mom cried and i quickly rushed out to call Cyril who was our neighbor he’s a taxi driver and i know he’ll will help us take dad to the hospital.
I slowly open my eyes and that’s when i realize this isn’t my room, i was at the hospital with dad who seems to be fast asleep. I spent the whole night on a chair and my wa-istand legs really hurts even thou mom insisted i came home yesterday night but i refuse to i have to make sure dad is doing fine.
“mom,” i called as i turn to her direction -she was pacing up and down looking so worried. The door went open and Mr. Cyril walked in.
“i have to go home now Ellen just call me if you need anything,” he said.
“thanks a lot Cyril,” she said and he nodded before leaving.
“just go home Bianca, just go and take a bath and make something for us to eat i will watch over your dad here,” she enthused.
“what did the doctor said about his condition?
“that’s he’s stressed out and need rest. His blood pressure was high and that’s why he collapse yesterday during our argument,”
“i have heard everything you discussed about, am not your biological child so theirs no point in hiding anything from me. I gat no problem with that because you’re still the woman who raise me and i will always see me as my mother but what the point of hiding things away from me. If you know who my real parents are you can tell me that..
“so you will leave me and never return? she yelled..
“so i could know them, i want to know who truly i am, i want to know who my real parents are but that will never change a single thing about you and dad. Your are the only family i ever had and i will always stay with you mom i just want to know the whole truth.. please,” i pleaded.
“it’s okay Bianca! theirs no need of knowing who your real parents are because they are evil people, i hate them so much and i don’t even want to a-ssociate with them again, the worse part of it is that i don’t know where they live anymore,” she half yelled trying to hold back her tears.
“okay,”
i nodded as i walked out in tears too. Is too early for all this. Why is mom so persistence about us leaving? why does she dislike Harriet and also Drake’s family especially when she found out i stayed with them when at that time! why does she insisted i reject Mrs. Harriet offer to help me study in one of the good universities? why does she accuse Mrs. Harriet of killing Loretta. Why is everything pointed to Mrs. Harriet. All these are connected to her. I need to know everything, i need to speak with Mrs. Harriet to know if she have ever done anything bad to mom!
Annie’s POV????
Mom left for work early and we didn’t even have breakfast together as we usually did, she seems so cold towards me, maybe it because of what i did to Bianca but why is she this angry -i did what i had to and somehow i didn’t regret, my only regret was seeing Drake hurt because of that wretched Bianca. I sat down in the clas-sstaring at phone hoping Drake will call. I regret talking to him that way,
i should have showed how remorseful i was about the whole situation, i shouldn’t have broke up with him, i love him but it all Bianca’s fault she caused all this.
“what with the angry face,” Patricia voice jolted me out of my thought.
“i broke up with Drake,” I told her the whole story and how my mom knew about everything.
“mom is still angry with me,”
“that wasn’t the plan Annie. The plan was to disgrace Bianca during your party so that she will feel so humiliated and leave early but you went too far to sent some men to ra-ped her! she said so surprised.
“i was so angry with her. I thought my birthday was gonna be the best having my mom by my side then Drake on the other side but we ended up having an argument all because of that wretched Bianca,”
“that’s not an excuse to have her ra-ped, and now that Drake is hurt do you think he will forgive you and to worse the situation you broke up with him?
“stop talking as if i did the worse thing Pat, i did what i had to at that time. Can you at least be on my side for once,” i yelled.
“you always fu-cked up our whole plan that’s your problem Annie you don’t stick to the plan and now am not on anybody’s side because the way i saw that Bianca of a girl during your birthday party she looks so pretty. With the way you call her name and tells me about her- you sounded so disgusted and i was expecting to see a very skinny ugly creature but i was surprise when you showed me her. She’s very beautiful i must admit and don’t too surprise if you wake up one day and discover Drake has chosen Bianca over you,” she said while i stood up angrily.
“so what are you trying to insinuate in what you’re saying?
“nothing,” she replied mockingly then stood up and walked out. Why the heck is she acting that way. For all i know Patricia is even worse than me, back then in high school she asked some guys to drugged and ra-ped a girl who tried to snatched her boyfriend so why is she acting as if i killed someone. Silly human being!
Now everyone is angry at me, i stood up and left the clas-sbut bumped into Gary who was just coming in with his friends.
“Annie,” he smiled when our eyes meet.
“hi” i said sadly before walking away.
“Annie,” he called me as he ran to catch up with me.
“you don’t look happy at all. You need to see your face you look so sad like something is eating you up,”
“why did you peck me? i asked angrily and if i could remember that was the whole thing that got Drake pissed. Gary was the caused of everything that happen.
“why did you even showed up late and still left early? what did you want from me? huh!
“oops! calm down. You invited me remember and why are you so harsh? he asked calmly.
“just answer me,”
“okay.. let just say i was scared of your boyfriend,” he said mockingly.
“meaning..?,”
” okay let me be serious. I was surprise to see Bianca at the party and also your boyfriend was there so i think it wasn’t a good idea to just showed up,” he shrugged.
“you know Drake
and also Bianca? i asked surprised.
“Bianca is my ex. Am sure Drake was the one that invited her, she was actually there because of him and i knew Bianca rejected me because she likes him,”
“Bianca’s your ex? i asked irritatingly.
“you look so smart and too expensive for her, of all the girls why would you choose Bianca,”
“Bianca might be from a poor family and all that but she’s intelligent and pretty too but let just say I’ve got what i want from her even thou i need more of it,” he smirked.
“wat did you mean? i asked curiously.
“oh! i talk too much atimes. Nevermind but you don’t have to worry because am getting my Bianca back so you can have Drake all to yourself,” he a-ssured me..
Harriet’s POV????
Late in the evening after with work i stopped at the hospital to vist Drake. I felt so relief knowing he’s doing good.
“i will be discharged tomorrow, you know how i hate staying in the hospital, sometimes i wonder how dad cope being in the hospital all day,” he smiled as he sat up.
“Nigel is already used to it,” i smiled.
“so have you told your parents about what Annie did? i asked.
“of course not, but mom and dad wouldn’t listen because they are still serious about this whole thing. They want to know the people behind it, am scared Annie might be in trouble if they get to know this,” he said.
“just tell them the whole truth, it’s pointless hiding it. Just tell them Annie planned everything,” i said sadly.
“i don’t think i can do that Mrs. Harriet. Maybe Annie can tell them herself if she’s really sorry for what she did,” he enthused. If Nigel and Gina should find this on their own they might think am siding with Annie and i don’t want that to happen.
????I arrived home late in the evening, i felt so stressed out. A lot has been on my mind recently. After taking a shower i laid on my bed thinking about everything- every single thing that happen in my wretched life- why is life being so unfair!!!
“mom,” Annie voice jolted me out from my thought.
“mom aren’t you having dinner with me? she asked as she walked in fully.
“am not hungry Annie, i just want to be alone,” i sigh.
“are you still angry?
“am not angry at anyone Annie. I feel so weak these days, it all part of the stress lately but you don’t have to worry i’ll be fine,” i smiled.
“am sorry mom! am sorry for everything i know you’re still mad at me,” she pouts then moved forward and sat down beside me on the bed.
“it’s okay dear but once you’re done with school you’ll be the one to take over *Glamorous Accessories*. Your are the heir to everything i have Annie. You are Annie Gonzalez and you possess so much greatness in you and not jealousy or any evil act. I did not only love you as my daughter but i also trust you with everything i have so please Annie i hope you won’t disappoint me again,” i said sadly.
“yes mom, am so sorry,” she sniffed.
“it’s okay Annie we all make mistakes and i have forgiven you already but you still have some few thing to do,” i said.
“thanks mommy,” she smile hugging me tight.
“so things like what?
“Drake will be discharged tomorrow. So we’ll gonna visit him and you’ll apologies to his parents,” i said but immediately her countenance changed.
“but mom..
“i know.. i know it gonna be difficult for you, it will gonna be more worse if they find out themselves. Nigel was serious when he said he will gonna find those people. Who are even those guys you hired to do all these? I don’t want the police to be involved in this because once the truth is out our reputation will be ruined,
it will be all over on papers and different media. Please Annie just apologize to his parents so they can dismissed this case and everything will be over,” i said but she looked so sad.
“how do you expect me to face Drake and his parents mom. Drake and i just broke up,”
“it’s gonna be okay sweetie, this is just the silent way to end this without any outsider knowing this.. you have to do it and promise me you won’t do such a thing ever again? i asked.
“promise mom,” she said almost in a whisper, i pulled her into a hug.
“Bianca called me earlier today at the office she said she want to talk to me about something bothering her, i felt so glad knowing she now sees me as someone she could talk to, i have always wanted her to feel free with me, so she will be coming here tomorrow maybe you can apologize to her as well,” i said while Annie nodded.
“okay mom, if that will make you happy,” she nodded..

Annie’s POV
The next day…
@ the Alcantraz Mansion????..
I can’t believe mom is asking me to apologize to those people but in this case i have no option is better this way than ruining our reputation.
As we walked to the sitting room my eyes meet with Drake.. Oh God! i hope he’s not mad at me. I felt so nervous when his parents came in. What will they think of me if they get to know am behind am this. Gosh! i feel so horrible but i don’t think i will ever apologize to Bianca that’s impossible and what does she even want to discuss with my mom!
“Annie, i thought you’ll not gonna come because of what happen between you and Drake,” his mom said .
“well it a good thing Drake is doing well but Annie have something to tell you,” mom said while my heart skip a bit.
“yes Harriet, the police just called and told us the bullet that hit Drake in the arm has been traced, so we are heading there to confirm it,” Mr. Nigel said and my heart skip a bit. What if they get to know this- will i be in jail?
“am sorry for everything that happen Nigel..,” mom said.
“this is all my fault, i planned it all but i believe me when i say i regret everything i did. Am so sorry Mr. Nigel,” i apologize with my head down.
“what did you mean? Drake’s mom asked and i told them everything that happen!
.
“what! what if Drake wasn’t there on time, Bianca would have been ra-ped? Mr. Nigel asked.
“or what if my son was killed? how could you Annie,” Mrs. Gina yelled at me.
“oh gosh Annie so can be so unbelievable atimes, are you this jealous of Bianca,” Nanny Kora said angrily. Oh my God! now they are all ganging up on me!
“am sorry for all this. Annie regret whatever she did and that’s why she’s confessing this to you herself,” mom said to them.
“i don’t care Harriet, my son almost got killed in this.. am calling the officer Sam right away,” Mrs. Gina yelled angrily.
“mom! we don’t have to involve the police in this.. please,” Drake said to her.
“Gina… just calm down.. i will handle this myself,” Mr. Nigel said while i sigh. Drake’s mom seems to be so mad at me.
“if Annie could do such a thing then that means she’s capable of killing someone,” she yelled.
“Annie regret what she did, we all make crazy mistakes atimes Gina so stop accusing or seeing Annie as a bad person. Yes she might be a bad person to all of you but i know she still have some goodness left in her heart,” mom defended me while i felt my eyes clouded with tears.
“stop defending her Annie, i know she’s your daughter but…
“am only staying the truth. If i’ve wanted to side with Annie on what she did i wouldn’t have allow her to come here and confess what she did to you. I know you feel hurt Gina but you’re not the only one,” mom said.
“you’re right Harriet. Even thou Annie is your daughter i know you’ll never support her in this,” Mr. Nigel said.
“this won’t repeat itself again, i wasn’t in my right state of mind when i did all that but i have learnt from my mistakes now. I promise such thing won’t repeat itself,” i said remorsefully.
“it better not happen then,” Mrs. Gina said half yelled before walking out in anger.
“i will just talk to Gina outside,” Mr. Nigel said while rushed out to his wife.
“i have to go now. Take care,” mom said before walking out. Maybe i shouldn’t have done this in the first place, now everything seems to be angry at me but is it really necessary to even tell his parents about this. Gosh!
“Annie, how can you be this evil? Nanny Kora asked.
“it’s all over now Nanny, can you please excuse us,” Drake told her while she left.
“am sorry,” i muttered.
“am glad you’re brave enough to tell my parents all these. At least you were truthful and you regret everything you did.. right?
“sure,” i nodded trying to hold back my tears.
“am so sorry Drake… i guess i can’t hold this anymore,” i sobbed as i sat down next to him.
“you ended everything yourself Annie and i think it for the best. It better if we remain just friends,” he said.
“no Drake, i love you, i really do i broke up with you because i was mad at you and not because i stop loving you,” i cried.
“mad at me? but for what exactly? i was the one hurt for your silly act,” he half yelled…
Harriet’s POV????
I hope Nigel and Gina will forgive Annie and this whole issue will be over soon. It’s just to embarra-ssing that the daughter i raised planned all this.
I arrived to G.A when i received a call from my secretary.
“you have a visitor Ma’am and he’s already in your office,”
“i can’t remember having an appointment with anyone,” i said over the phone
“yes ma’am but he insisted to wait for you in your office he said it’s private,”
“who is he? i asked curiously.
“hmmm… i guess it better if you see for yourself ma’am, he’s someone he once respected here,” she said while i sigh then headed straight to my office throu-ghthe reserved door used only by me.
I walked in and i was shocked by who i saw- Williams???
