Chapter 314: All right, I promise
Vicky sits on the bed and looks at her..
A pair of eyes are slightly swollen after crying last night.
She looked at her. “I’ve decided, I’m going to follow you, wherever you go, I’ll go!”
“She said firmly.
She’s not gonna kill herself again, but she has to get Alva to help her.
I must.
Alva paused and sat down on the sofa.
She looked at the time. 7:10.
We can talk.
Looking at Vicky, “Little girl, let’s talk.”
Vicky sat up and faced Alva, all the fear of last night gone.
‘Say it!
“But let me tell you in advance that nothing you can say will change my decision to follow you.””
“Only if you help me.”
Alva looked into her bright eyes and nodded, “You said it was you who found me
when I was stolen in Silktown?”
‘Yes!
She’s very calm.
“You said Uriah wanted to buy your father’s company because you stole from me and beat me up.”
“Yes!
Uriah admitted it.
“How do you know?”
“Because I went to Uriah, you think I came to you without him?” He wanted to buy my father’s company. I must have gone to him, but he wouldn’t give me a chance. He was cruel.’
Alva wasn’t surprised by her answer.
Yeah, she wouldn’t know about Uriah if she didn’t go to her.
Just, “What makes you so sure Uriah bought your dad’s company because of me?”
She was curious about that.
Vicky’s lips tightened and she looked down. “He said everyone has to pay for their mistakes.”
Alva froze.
Everyone has to suffer the consequences of their mistakes?
Uriah, did you say that?
That’s what a cold-hearted person would say?
Vicky continued: ‘My mum died of a sudden illness when I was ten and I hated my dad because he was away on business when my mum was taken to hospital and he couldn’t get through on the phone and when she died she left without looking at him for the last time.
“I hated him, so I did a lot of wrong things over the years, and it was all him who cleaned up after me, and I never felt like I could do anything I wanted.”
“But this time…”
She looked up at Alva. “I messed with the wrong people, and I realized what an asshole I was, but there’s nothing I can do. It’s no use regretting.”
“My dad was in a hospital with a brain haemorrhage and was in a vegetative state. He may never wake up.”
“I want to make up for my mistakes, I want him to know that I will never be the same again, that I…”
Vicky looked down and wiped away the tears that were about to fall. Then, eyes red, she looked at Alva. “You have to help me. If you don’t help me, I’ll follow you.”
Alva’s lips tightened, her head turned, looked out at the sky on the balcony, and said, “Do you really think Uriah won’t buy your father’s company if I beg him?”
Vicky nods heavily. “Yes!”
‘I believe it!
Alva looked at her. “Well, I can take you to him and tell him face to face not to buy your father’s company.”
