Chapter 9: 9 The game has just begun
"I want my mother's belongings and the safe which have been moved from my room before I leave for the Allen's", she said icily.
George didn't expect this to be her condition. Looking at Jessica's nonchalance, Risa's pleading eyes and Clara's light caress on his arm; it is already clear the unspoken hope they had on him and Jessica's taunt if he fails the challenge. Should he refuse her condition, how will he get away from the Allen family? And should he agree, how possible is it that he will get his hand on the belongings again?
"I agree", he stated as he struggled to maintain his calm. He had encountered so many powerful opponents calmly in the business world but Jessica's request has unraveled him more than he had expected. He didn't expect Jessica to remember of those belongings and the safe. She had been a little over seven years when she left for the countryside.
"Okay, I will be waiting for the items", she smirked as she pushed her seat back and stood up.
Looking at their faces scrunched with fury, she was in happy mood. She haven't felt this good in ages. Lightly patting Risa's back "Have a good night Sis", She smirked as she sauntered upstairs to her room.
"Bang", Clara and Risa flinched in shock. George was blazing in fury, his eyes reddened in anger. Clara distanced herself from him.
"Have you seen the result of your decision to bring her back?", he growled.
"Honey, this isn't the end of it", Clara said as her eyes flashed with calculations. It is clear she has another plot underway.
"What do you mean?" He asked, his tone a suppressed anger.
Clara looked around the dining room and not seeing any maid in sight, he whispered her plans into George's ear. His face brightened immediately at the suggestion. But then a trace of worry etched his face "Is this possible and wouldn't back fire?"
Clara shook her head "no matter how old she might have grown some traits can't be wiped out so we explore her weakness when the time comes." She stated.
"Mom, Dad I am been kept in the dark. What is the deal?" Risa asked. Clara patted her daughter's back urging her to calm down. "As long as am not made to marry that cripple any arrangement is fine", Risa muttered before she made her way upstairs.
Jessica returned to her room fulfilled, looking at the moonlight shining in through the windows she felt her burden take away.
