HE BETRAYED ME

Jessie slowly opens her eyes, her head aches terribly. "Why do I feel so weak this morning?" She asks muttering to herself. "Am i running an high temperature?" She places her palm on her forehead. "I am covered in sweat?" She asks again and uses her entire strength to sit on the bed. "I guess I am a bit sick." She reaches out to her cell phone and dials a number. "Hello, pascal."

"Hi ma'am, how are you doing?" Pascal asks.

"I hope I didn't wake you up." She whispers.

"Wake me up?" Pascal giggles. "Every normal person will be awake by now, this is almost eleven in the morning."

"Almost eleven?" Jessie asks loudly and looks at the wall clock in her room. Her eyes widens when she realizes pascal isn't lying. "How come I slept this much?"

"What is wrong?"

"I guess I am feeling sick." She sighs. "I have an important work for you to do."

"Really?"

"Yes." Jessie nods. "And I promise you, I will pay you well if you do it nicely. But fail, and I will deal with you."

"I won't disappoint you ma." Pascal sounds sugar coating.

"Andrew is back in town."

"Which Andrew are you referring to?" He sounds a bit confused.

"The same Andrew we have been searching for the past ten years."

"Really? That's some sort of good news."

"He came with a family." Jessie furthers.

"Family? What is that supposed to mean? All these years we've been searching for him, he was busy making a family?"

"Apparently, that was the case. He cut contact on purpose because he saw Ella where he went and couldn't kill her." she pauses and continues. "He has betrayed me, and I wish to punish him."

"Punish him? How are you going to do that?" Pascal asks again.

"I want his entire family dead before the end of today."

"You want what?"

"Don't forget what I told you earlier, I will pay you well if you do the job nicely, but if you fail, you will be seriously dealt with. I will send you the address of where he is currently staying. Call me when you are done." she ends the call.

Pascal holds on tightly to his cell phone, if confused was a person, then it would be him at the moment. "Kill Andrew's family? How can I ever think of doing that? He was my blood before he decided to cut contact."

Jessie walks Into the sitting room with her mouth agape and her eyes wide open. "Why is this place so empty?" she asks no one in particular. "Where is everyone?" She opens the door to Linda's room and finds her fast asleep. "I wonder why she sleeps without the duvet." she murmurs as she covers her properly with the duvet, just as she is about to rise to her normal posture, something crossed her mind, but why is she also still asleep by this time? What happened? The whole house is still as I left it last night." she walks swiftly back to the Cecelia's room but she isn't there, Confused Jessie proceeds to the bathroom but still can't find her. "What is going on? Linda is still sleeping, and Cecelia is no where to be found."

The ex CEO of the Heartrose Hospital runs to the back quarters as Linda would always call it. She bangs on the door very hard for about a minute.

Anita opens the door gently and gasps In extreme shock when she sees her boss standing right in front if her with a dangerous looking eye. "Good mor-"

Jessie pushes the door and walks In, she looks round the apartment and the sounds of snores from the rooms made it dawn on her that all of them except Anita was still sleeping. "What is this? This is almost eleven and you are still all asleep?!"

"I am sorry ma'am." Anita whispers trembling In fear.

"Wake them up now!" she yells and walks out angrily.
