Chapter 23

Terry faces his father; he is here to discuss something important.

“Father, I know you're disappointed in Megan about what happened, but it wasn't really her fault; that bastard planned all this.”

Terry went on his knees.

“Father, please forgive Megan; it won't repeat itself again.”

Sir Bernard was surprised by Terry's words. Megan had gotten her position back at the company; she even went to work this morning. Why is Terry still pleading for forgiveness?

“I had already fulfilled my promise to Megan. She resumed work today.”

Sir Bernard's eyebrows raised suddenly.

“Do you mean that bastard?”

“Yes, father, that bastard; please, father, let's cancel that marriage they both had.”

Terry quickly moved closer to his father.

“Ever since yesterday, I have gotten so many calls from some top family members, indicating interest in Megan.”

Sir Bernard's face was full of smiles; finally, more good news.

“Father, the biggest call I have gotten is a call from Randy Lawrence, who informed me about Vincent's interest In Megan.”

Sir Bernard's eyes widen; he knows what Megan accomplished yesterday is going to be on the lips of many people; he wasn't expecting the news to travel this fast and far.

Sir Bernard's heartbeat increased.

“What did you say to him?”

“I told him she was available”

His heartbeat slowly come down; he thought Terry told him Megan was married.

“Good, what do you want from me now?”

Terry knows his father will be interested in something this big.

“That bastard is still in our house; he refused to leave. I offered him money and a cleaning job, but he still refused to leave.”

Sir Bernard's jaw tightened; he totally forgot Megan was pregnant. They must act fast before everyone takes notice of her condition.

“Don't worry yourself; I will personally summon that bastard over; he will definitely obey; you must've offered him peanuts. He can't reject a huge sum.”

He taps Terry's shoulders.

“He wouldn't turn down my offer; he's after our family money anyway, so we must get him out quickly.”

Terry was full of joy; his father finally want to do something about Damien's case.

“Thank you, father. Thank you. I will definitely come with him later today father.”

Terry's cheeks moved; he must get everything done today.

“Okay, do that quickly; the faster the better.”

Terry quickly left the house; he knew Damien was at home when he left.

Doris and her friends left the shop; Brenda left first; she had an emergency in her restaurant. Victoria decided to discuss her idea with Doris.

“Doris, I know a way to get that bastard son-in-law of yours out of your daughter's life.”

Doris quickly faces Victoria, and her words surprise her.

“How.. how.. tell me please.”

“My son Logan can help your family, but it would cost you something.”

Doris was surprised Victoria wanted something in return, but she didn't give it any thought; she just wanted that bastard out of their house so Megan could be free again.

“I agree to what whatever it may cost, as long as I'm not going to kill anyone.”

“No.... no”

Victoria burst into laughter.

“You know Logan is a police captain; I can speak to him to help you arrest and jail that bastard for what he did to Megan.”

Doris eyes opened widely; she forgot Logan was a police captain; he can definitely help Megan secretly, without the public finding out.

“Thank you so much, my friend; I agreed to your cost, condition, or whatever it takes to chase that bastard out.”

Doris thought Victoria wanted to follow her to Everything Luxury, but Victoria had her own plan; she wanted her son Logan to marry Megan. She knew Doris wouldn't agree after the deed was done, and if she didn't, she would asked for a big contract. She wouldn't turn that down.

“Let's get to work.”

Victoria called Logan to inform him their plans are in motion. Logan knows what to do; she already discussed everything with him; he must commence immediately. She faces Doris with a smile.

“Go home and be happy; it's done; my son Logan is on his way to your house; that bastard will soon be in jail.”

Doris decided to quickly run home.

She was surprised to see Damien doing some workout outside the house; her eyes went down, but they raised when she heard the siren sound. The police are here.

Some policemen came out and marched to Damien. Damien was surprised to see them; he wondered what was going on. His eyes moved to Doris, who was smiling brightly.

“What is the meaning of this?”

Doris smiled as she come closer.

“You're getting arrested and finally going to jail.”

Damian's eyebrows pushed down, the policemen circled him and handcuffed his hands. Damien knows he can't struggle with them, but he should at least ask why he is being arrested.

“What is my offense?”

Nobody muttered to Damien; they guided him to their car. Damien uttered again.

“Let me call my lawyer.”

One of the policemen shouted.

“You can do that when you get to the station.”

Doris didn't want Damien to use any tricks to run away.

“He's a liar; he can't afford any lawyer; he doesn't have one; hold him very well; I don't want him to escape.”

Doris told the police officers.

Damien quietly followed them; he knew they would not be able to do anything to him. He saw Doris full of joy; he couldn't believe she pushed to this extent. When his words actually got Megan her position back, he thought these people are very ungrateful.

“I will be back soon; take my clothes inside.”

Doris couldn't believe the bastard words; he doesn't know the trouble he has landed into.

she yelled at him.

“You bastard! You are going to rot in jail.”

Terry just arrived; he saw the police taking Damien to their car, and he quickly ran to his wife.

“What is going on? What happened?”

Doris smiled at Terry and pointed at Damien.

“This bastard is going to prison.”

Terry didn't care to ask Doris what happened or how she did it; he quickly joined Doris in celebrating.

They watched Damien leave with the police; finally, he's gone forever.

Captain Logan looked at Damien in disgust. He couldn't believe this scumbag took advantage of Mrs. Doris beautiful goddess. He heard everything from his mom. He is going to send this lifeless man to prison immediately.

It seems he doesn't know he is in big trouble.

“Sit down, young man.”

Damien sits in the middle of two police officers.

He can't believe Doris and her friends actually planned all this. Logan placed his hands on the table and shook his head forward; his eyes were deadly as he voiced out

“I am going to ask you a few questions, and you are going to give me a straight answer.”
