“Hello?”
“I want you to do something for me.”
“What?”
“Wipe away everything that happened to me last night. I want everything gone. Leave no trace of me being there at all,” she uttered each word through gritted teeth as she stared ahead with reddened eyes in the car.
The person on the other end of the phone fell silent.
He was unsure if he was supposed to feel happy or sad about it.
Finally, after one minute, he agreed in a low voice and said, “Sure. So when are you coming back then?”
“Today.”
“Okay. I’ll get someone to book a flight for you. You can return to work tomorrow,” he said and hung up the phone afterward.
Sabrina remained unmoved for a while after the call ended. However, she finally broke down when she received the notification about her flight to return home. She threw her phone aside, plopped down on the steering wheel, and burst into tears.
It’s finally over. Finally…
Over at the Red Pavilion, Sasha finally figured out the reason Richard and his men had come so early in the morning.
“Devin defiled Shanae,” was what Richard said.
F*ck! That b*tch really did it! Sasha cursed in her head and sneered, “Old Mr. Woods, you can’t just say anything you like. Girls nowadays will do anything to get what they want. You should be cautious of her words.”
“What did you say? I dare you to say that again. Why would my granddaughter lie to me?”
Richard jumped up from his seat when he heard Sasha’s words.
Then, just as Sasha was about to reveal the truth, her phone rang, and it was a message.
Sabrina: Don’t tell anyone about what I told you earlier.
Sasha: What?
Sabrina: You’ll never see me again if you break this promise.
Sasha was shocked by the message. She tried to send another message, but all she got was an error notification.
F*ck! What is wrong with her?
She then tried to call Sabrina but to no avail no matter how many times she tried.
She’s really gone mad!
