“Well…” Even Jezebelle knew her plan wasn’t practical. “You can beg Helen or John for mercy. Don’t they like Joaquin and Jameson? Aren’t they intent on having Pierre marry you?”
“Why would they even want to see me when Megan stabbed their son? My only connection with them is through Pierre and our sons. They might even be wondering if I am also capable of what Megan did, seeing that she’s my sister!”
The fact that Megan stabbed Pierre gave Meredith a headache, as she didn’t know how she should handle the matter. After sniffing around, she came to know that the Fowlers didn’t know that Pierre was injured yet, so she figured that Pierre might’ve hidden the truth from them. Therefore, she wouldn’t be the one to cross them by actively informing them of the incident.
“So what are we to do now?” Jezebelle began wailing.
Her wails only served to aggravate Meredith’s headache. “Mom, can’t you be quiet? Let me think!” Rubbing her temples, she reviewed her plans. Although she was already prepared to launch the second phase of her plan, she had made a miscalculation. She didn’t know John would be so overprotective of his grandsons. With the boys now banned from going to kindergarten, she was out of moves.
“I’ll go see Pierre.” After a moment, she relented upon heaving a sigh, as she had no other options.
“Sure! Go beg for his mercy! He might very well let this slide out of concern for his sons!” Jezebelle quickly agreed to her plan.
Casting a glance at her mother, Meredith was suddenly overcome with feelings of desolation. “Mom, have you ever wondered about my thoughts on the matter when you repeatedly told me to go beg for mercy from Pierre?”
