CHAPTER 6

Grandpa noticed something was wrong with my mother and tried talking to her but the guest keep taking her attention,so he made her promise that she was going to come see him the next day.

After giving me my gift and announcing me as the next heir to the Carlos empire,grandpa went home,he said he couldn't stay long because his bones were not as strong as before.

Amelia my mother tried to look for my father to took to him after the party,she went into the study because she was told he was there but what she heard shocked her,' Calm down my dad was telling someone,I told you not to call me whenever I am at home he continued.do you want her to suspect,no she won't suspect anything the voice on the other end replied,I just miss you,you know it has been a month since we last saw.

I know and I am trying my best,I am just waiting for the old man to sign all his property to me he said,even though I have been working there you know it is not my money,I just need to wait until the old man signs the documents then I just get rid of him for good,but until then I need you to be patient he said, alright I will hang up now so nobody suspects anything,I love you he said and hurriedly hung up the phone.

Amelia dragged herself to the bedroom and feigned sleep because she knew that she wouldn't be able to hide the emotions and pain from her husband,she couldn't believe that her husband was trying to kill her father,she had to go see her father the next day,she couldn't still believe that her husband would betray her like what,what did she do wrong,she continued asking herself,was it a crime to love someone poor,she continued sobbing until she slept off.

My father walked into the room not suspecting anything,pecked my mum on the cheek and went to his side of the bed to sleep, everything will soon be mine he said with a big smile on his face turning of the light,not knowing that Amelia was hearing all he was saying in the dark because as soon as he turned off the light she opened her eyes.

She knew she had to act fast otherwise things would be unremendable,she had to save her father and herself and also the company because a lot of people were depending on the income to feed their families and she couldn't allow it fall into the wrong hands.
