Chapter 138

The lady who Lizzy contacted to do the job of finding out what actually was the truth behind the entire picture and pre wedding news, has her name as Ella, her name was released to Lucy as soon as she accepted the terms of the contract. She had called that faithful evening to give the information Lizzy of her readiness to do the job. After confirming that she was really serious, Lizzy had to forward her name to Lucy passing the responsibility of the financial implication and negotiation to her. 

Lucy had no time waste, she called Ella immediately, when she picked, she asked her what she would take to handle the job. The negotiation took time, but at the end, they were able to arrive at an agreed price. Lucy was to pay part of the money before the job commenced, so she did that, but to Lizzy who was to monitor and follow up for the desired result. Ella was happy to have such a job, to the best of her knowledge, it was an easy one and there was no way she wouldn't deliver. Already, she had reached out to her lover, he chef and confirmed her access to the party. All she needed to do was to have a good strategy to enable her get involved in the events so as to be close enough to see things as they happen. 

Lucy was also on a good mood, she had told virtually every one that seemed concerned that she was going to get to the root of the matter so as to unveil the hidden things, making them to know she was convinced that there was some things that doesn't seem clear. If there was one person who had started seeing things from Lucy's perspective, that was Pat, she would do anything to see that whatever plan Mike or whoever was behind the wedding failed. It would be a dream come through seeing that things reversed back to the way it was before between Olivia and Mike. 

That evening, she sat and listened to Lucy give her detailed information of her plans and how far she had gone on it. Just like Olivia, Pat also promised great whatever the financial implications might be, she was ready to foot it, all she wanted was to verify the trueness or false if any in the story. What she never told Lucy was her interest on the matter. It was not necessary according to her the thinking, but right behind her mind, she had her plans laid on actions she would take once the news she expected came positive. 

While all these and other events were happening, Olivia was still mindful of the unravelled and yet to be ascertained plan that Kelly had in mind. She seemed curious to find out. She was more curious because Kelly had informed her of his plan to travel back to New Zealand in a week or two. When she told Mira, she suggested that they make out time to hear him out, whatever be it. Having that in mind, Olivia had to put a call through to Kelly's line, asking for a meeting, this time it was to be held in the first venue, where they had the initial meeting. Kelly felt comfortable that it wasn't in her house, at least there wouldn't be much interruption as it happened the last time. He had to plan ahead and prepare himself so that it wouldn't be a long tale this time around. 

Olivia had to inform Mira of the date and time scheduled with Kelly, since their Dad had strictly instructed that on no account should they leave the house without Chase accompanying them, Mira reminded her sister to reach Chase and inform him as well. Olivia did as advised, by calling Chase.

It was a two days off from work for Chase, and he had chosen to spend quality time with Brenda. It had been long he had time for her, and Brenda was not happy the way things were going. As soon as he got approval from his boss to proceed, the first thing that came to his mind was to reach Brenda so she could possibly seek for the same days off from work. It was the best way to enjoy the time off, being that both of them weren't going to work within those days. Another advantage they had was that Alicia was asked to cover his (Chase) duty, so she wouldn't be around, there by making it a hitch free and caution free enjoying moments. 

Chase was out in a pub sipping some wine when Olivia's call came through, he didn't waste time picking, although her call most times gets on his nerves, since she told him about Mike and the recent news, he had so much compassion on her. All he was always thinking and doing was to see that she was happy. He would use the slightest opportunity they got together to chip in some words of advice and encouragement. It was yet another opportunity as Olivia told him of the plan she and her sister had to hang out with Kelly. He wouldn't do otherwise, than accept after asking the time and venue. 

Cindy made payment to the young man who was to get her job of investigation done, while the man expected an initial deposit, he got all the money once. He wondered what kind of woman h was dealing with. He had to get back to the person who contacted him for the job and told him how surprised he was receiving all the money at once. The lady told him not to joke with Cindy, except he was ready to wrath in jail all his life. That was when and how he knew that it wasn't a child's play. Prior to receiving the payment, he had planned how he would reach out to Margaret and inform her of the job so he would hide under the family coverage and refuse doing the job. What he never knew was that there was an unseen eye that was already paid to monitor and make sure the job was done. He became confused at the way things had turned around, and decided not to reveal he deal to anyone, no even Margaret as he earlier planned. After all he thought, it was business and since money was involved, it wouldn't hurt doin the paid job. He would only call Margaret and let her know he was in town, and wanted to know where she was, with that, he was sure she would be so happy to extend the invitation to him. He called Cindy and acknowledged the receipt of the money.

Cindy was in the Jacuzzi when the young man called, she was already making up her mind to calm him after a long wait. She knew how some young men behave when it has to do with such jobs. They would want to take advantage of the person who gave them the job, having at the back of their mind that there wouldn't be any troubles, since it Wasn't somewhat legitimate. It would be a worse case when a woman was involve just as in her case. She wasn't going to let that be the case here, she had made her plan B and made sure all things where in place for equal reaction to any action. She wasn't going to let things be just like that, he way she did when her said husband behaved in such an unruly manner. Immediately the young man dropped his call, she called the opinion B and informed her. 

Aside these two would be investigators from Lucy and Cindy, Brains and Philip had also got their plan, they made contact with a journalist who they go information would be part of the covering of the party. It was from a reliable source and the young lady was to be in Margaret's family house from the day before the event to the D day. According to their source, it want the first time the lady would cover the event, she was always the only journalist allowed to stay over, others would be there that day only. Philip was so happy to get that information from Brains and they planned paying the lady heavily. 

The plan were in two ways, and it was going to cost them some good amount of money, that they wouldn't bother about. Brains was to fly in secretly to the UK to meet with the Journalist at the planned date, every other thing would be discussed and initial deposit made.

Lucymang was part of the plan, she would play a role and a major one at that when the jounalist was ready to discuss the plan. She also played a part in getting the source and a right one at that, who gave them the link to the journalist. The story of Brains, Philip and Mike that she heard, motivated her to get fully involved, believing that it would be a wonderful experience having the trio together once again.
