Chapter 61

Jane got to the living room and saw that Chris was no longer there

"where's Chris?" she asked

"he has gone to bed, I'm about to go sleep too, you want something?" Mrs Whitney asked

"well yes, I actually want to ask a question and I want you to be sincere with me" Jane said

"okay I'm all ears what is it?" Mrs Whitney asked

"where did you get the money to pay for the hospital bills back then?" Jane asked

Mrs Whitney face turned pale as soon as she heard that question, she had dreaded the day Jane would really ask her question, even though she had try to bring it up sometimes she always avoided it, why on Earth is she asking her now

"why do you ask?" she said trying to cover up the fear in her heart, she just hoped she had not given herself away

"you know everytime I try to ask you, you always divert the topic, I really hope you are not hiding something from me Mrs Whitney" Jane accused

"of course not darling, I'm just curious as too why you are asking now all of a sudden, did something happen?" Mrs Whitney asked

"no nothing happened, I just want to know what happened that's all, I'm curious, the bill was so huge there was no way you would have been able to afford it, I feel like there's something you are not telling me" Jane interjected

"well like I told you before, some folks helped us, they saw us at the hospital and they just decided to help" Mrs Whitney answered hoping she would stop prying

"just like that, that what's you've been saying, who are those folks, where did they come from?" Jane asked

"well child I don't know, I already told you what happened but you keep pestering me, God must have had mercy on you and sent you a helper, instead of you to be grateful you are accusing me?" Mrs Whitney said pretending to be angry

"of course not I'm just surprised" Jane said

"well I don't care, good night" Mrs Whitney and stormed to her room

Jane was left there dumbfounded, ' what was that? ' she thought, Mrs Whitney had never lashed out on her like that, she hadn't said too much or has she, she just wanted to know the truth, she walked back to her room feeling sad and dejected, seems she will never know the truth after all

Mrs Whitney got into her room and slumped on her bed, she couldn't help but cry, she felt bad for shouting at her now, but that seems like the only way to stop her from asking so many questions

she didn't know how long she would be able to hold on the truth if she had continued, she was afraid of Jane finding out the truth

how is she supposed to explain that she had sold one of the twin to someone she didn't even know, she was in desperate need of money back then, she had sold all she had bad even took a loan to get half of the payment the hospital asked for the operation, Jane had twin, a boy and a girl, there was no way they had known she was having twins since she had refused to go the hospital

she was depressed all those times, and she had to go to the hospital to get her drugs and even forced her to take them

then she fell into coma and her life was in danger, she had to use life support

she was walking home one night when a man in a mask had approached her and offered to buy one of the twin, she didn't have a choice, she had to sell the girl, the buyer picked the girl

now how was she going to explain it to her, Jane would never forgive her, she can't afford to lose the love of Jane and Christopher, they were the only family she had, she felt really sorry, but there's nothing she can do at this point

Jack was given the day off, he had spent the whole day strategically, he needed to find out the truth about his parents's death, the only clue he had was the diary she gave him that night, the diary had a lot of secret, at least he has a suspect which is Maria Smith, the mother of that arrogant boss of his

his mother used to work for her alongside her friend Whitney but that evil woman killed them both, he wasn't sure if she had killed his parents but she sure had killed his mother's friend Whitney, and she was the only prime suspect in this case

he can't wait to unmask the evil woman behind that fine face of hers, and all her dirty secrets

that was he had made sure he got that job as Christopher's PA, even though he had been a pain in the ass, but he had to endure it for the sake of his parents and his sister only God knows where she is at the moment

that night an assassin had come into their house and shot his father on the head, his mother had fled that night alongside him and his new born sister, he was only four years old

his mother could not keep up with the run and she hid them both under a truck, gave him this damn diary and asked him to protect his sister, and he failed, he fucking failed, he later heard a gunshot not too far away and he knew his mother had been killed too

Jack felt suffocated and drove out of his house, he had pretended a lot just to work for that jackass, it was annoying

Jack was not looking at the road when he was driving and he almost run someone over, apparently she wasn't looking as well, she looked distressed, and she was begging him to stop

"hey please stop, please help me, please stop" she cried

Jack pulled over and opened the car, she got into the car and laid on the car floor, she was definitely hiding from some people

"move, drive" she almost shouted

Jack started the car and drove

"did we lose them?" Cassie asked

"well no one seems to be following us, are you okay?" Jack asked

"yes I'm fine, stop the car" Cassie said

"what?" Jack asked obviously surprised

"I said stop the car" she said again sounding impatient

Jack stopped the car and Cassie hurriedly left the car

"are you sure about this, what if they come back for you?" he asked worriedly

"well that's none of your business" she said, slammed the car door and gave him a ' fuck you ' middle finger sign, a funny face and disappeared

Jack was dumbfounded, ' who was that, she couldn't even say thank you, what a pervert ', he thought he regained himself and left
