Unexpected twist

"How could this be happening?" Angela ended the call she had been on in panic, her heart racing. This wasn't a possibility she ever anticipated. She had just received a call, informing her that Desmond was suing her for the custody of Rosaly. He did it without trying to talk to her about it! 

To be fair, he had every right to do that considering the method they had used on him, but none of them expected him to do so. Didn't Zaria hate Rosaly so much? Why did she let him try to get Rosaly's custody? 

According to their plan, Desmond would try to negotiate with her so she would pull down her video, and she would give him unspecified visitation rights. How could it turn to this? 

With no choice left, she went to meet Nathaniel. 

Alas, the man slapped her across the face as soon as he saw her. 

"You useless wench!" He roared.
