Elena’s journey episode 43
(At Mr Gilbert’s house)
Vincent: Any feedback from her kidnappers?
Mr Gilbert: Its Leon, he says if we wish to see Elena alive again, we’ll have to pay a $10 million ransome and I’ll have to sign my wealth to him
Vincent: What? You can’t do that!
Mr Gilbert: I know.
Vincent: We have to involve the police despite the risks involved. Its the only option we have left. Elena wouldn’t be happy if you become poor
Mr Gilbert: But Vincent…..
Vincent: You have to trust me on this!
Mr Gilbert: Okay
(At the Lunatic Asylum)
Doctor Carl: Good news Cas-sandra. I’ve met with the head doctor and you’re gonna get out of here soon
Cas-sandra: Uh…Thank God
Doctor Carl: (brings a nurse) This is Nurse Carol
Nurse Carol: Hi
Cas-sandra: What am I gonna do with her?
Doctor Carl: I told her about our plans and she has agreed to help us
Cas-sandra: That’s good. So what am I gonna do to get out of here?
Doctor Carl: You’ll have to go throu-gh series of tests in order for them to confirm you’re ok. And then if you pas-s them, we’ll call Vincent to come and take you away from here
Cas-sandra: That’ll be easy. But do me a favor. Don’t call Vincent, call Adrian instead. His PA, I’ll give you his number.
Doctor Carl: Why shouldn’t I call Vincent?
Cas-sandra: I have my reasons (smiles evilly)
*************************
2 DAYS LATER
(At Vincent house)
(Adrian brings Cas-sandra along with Nurse Carol to the house)

Adrian: She got discharged today madam.
Vincent mother: So you’re not crazy anymore?
Cas-sandra: Nope
Vincent mother: You can remember?
Cas-sandra: Uhhh… Yes. Aren’t you happy for me?
Vincent mother: I am. Well now that you remember, you can contact your family and go back to them.
Cas-sandra: My parents are dead and I’m an only child. I still have nowhere to go.
Vincent mother: What happened to them?
Cas-sandra: (lying) I don’t know, All I know is I grew up in an orphanage in Bulgaria and luckily they had my information that’s how I knew they were dead.
Vincent mother: You’re a liar! I don’t even nee-d a psychic to tell me that
Cas-sandra: I don’t even know what i did to you that made you hate me so much. Where is all these hate coming from?
Vincent mother: From my heart. Well Atleast now that you remember the orphanage you c@m£ from you can go back there. All I know is that you’re not returning to this house.
Cas-sandra: Yes I am. Because Vincent will let me stay here
Vincent mother: I am his mother and I have equal right to this house. So pack your things and get out
Nurse Carol: Madam why are you so wicked? Do you have to shout at her? You’re not even supposed to stress her, it’ll disrupt the thera-py.
Vincent mother: Thera-py my foot! And what right do you have to challenge me in my house?
Nurse Carol: But Madam. She just returned. She isn’t supposed to be stressed
Vincent mother: Well she’s going to be stressed alot if she stays here so its better she goes back to the Lunatic Asylum.
(Vincent mother throws Cas-sandra and her nurse out of the house)
(Outside the house)
Nurse Carol: What do we do now?
Cas-sandra: This house is mine and I won’t let that old hag push me around in my own house. Follow me!
(Cas-sandra and Nurse Carol enter the house again throu-gh the back door)
Vincent mother: How did you get back in here?
Cas-sandra: Are you that old that you can’t even remember that we have a back door?
Vincent mother: Leave this house this minute!
Cas-sandra: I’m not going anywhere! You can’t get rid of me easily. This house is mine and so is Vincent!
(Cas-sandra and Nurse Carol goes into her room)

Nurse Carol: So where is Vincent Manuel?
Cas-sandra: He’s not home yet.
Nurse Carol: I saw his picture on one of his books. He’s so handsome
Cas-sandra: (angrily) Huh? (She hits Nurse Carol in the head)

Cas-sandra: You better respect yourself. Vincent is for me only!
(Mr Leon calls her)
Cas-sandra: Hello?
Leon: (on the phone) I’ll nee-d you to do me a favor
Cas-sandra: I hope you have killed that fisherwoman? I’m supposed to be seeing the headlines on the news but I haven’t… Why?

Cas-sandra: We’re gonna share it equally
Leon: Sure
Cas-sandra: Just hasten up and kill that bit-ch!
Leon: I will.
(He hangs up)
Nurse Carol: Who was that? And who are you gonna kill?
Cas-sandra: Shhhhh… Someone will hear you. We’re planning on killing the fisherwoman that wants to steal Vincent from me.
Nurse Carol: Aren’t you bothered about going to prison
Cas-sandra: Ohhh, Don’t worry about me darling.
(Leon takes Elena to another uncompleted building far from the first one)
Leon: You’re family is delaying. Its like they’ve forgotten about you and moved on
Elena: My family is full of surprises.
Leon: Just pray they don’t involve the police if not, You’re dead.
(Meanwhile)
Police: Mr Vincent Manuel, we have searched everywhere and we couldn’t find Elena
Vincent: Then you haven’t searched everywhere yet because if you have, Elena would be back here
Police: We’ll keep searching
Vincent: Ok officer. We’ll also paste pictures of Elena everywhere to help in your search for her
(The policeman leaves)
Caitlin: I’m really worried
Mr Gilbert: Nothing will happen to Elena
(Leon calls him)
Leon: Its like I haven’t been clear. Elena’s ransome is $10 million and I know you have it and if you want to see her again. You’ll have to pay it

Cas-sandra: No! Never! You’re gonna die here Leon!
Leon: (shocked) Huh?
Cas-sandra: You’re so STUPID! You had the opportunity to kill Elena but you wasted it because of your stupidity. Didn’t you think her family would involve the police?
Leon: Is this what you have to say?
Cas-sandra: Of course. You’re a disappointment! If I had known this was how stupid you we’re, I wouldn’t have wasted my time with you.
Leon: But Cas-sandra…
Cas-sandra: Don’t call my name! I hate you more than Elena because she’s still alive because of you. Now not even your brother, daughters or family will bail you out of here. This is your punishment! You’ll rot here!
Leon: Ungrateful bit-ch! After all I did for you! I’ll make sure I deal with you
Cas-sandra: (laughs) And how will you do that? Obviously you’re gonna be s£ntenced to life imprisonment!
Leon: I’ll find a way to get out of here and deal with you
Cas-sandra: You see, the thing about being evil is that you can’t trust or rely on anyone. Too bad you learnt that the ha-rd way…. And as for Elena, i’ll deal with her myself!
(Leon lunges at Cas-sandra but the policeman restrains him)
