Grace held Whitney's hand as she asked her. Everyone stood there wondering what it is that she was talking about.
"Honey what you are saying? What does Whitney have to do with this?" Williams asked and Chris looked at Jack who shook his head.
"Right before that man walked up to me and took me. You called me and warned me that I was in danger. You said that I should not be alone. You knew something was going to happen." Grace said and everyone gasped.
Maria frowned hearing what Grace just said. Whitney didn't know how she would be able to deny it. Estella and the maids were right there when she said it.
"Why don't you take a rest, we can talk about this later on." Whitney said.
"Yes I agree with her. You should not be talking much, you just had a stich to your head." Mike said.
"I think we all should leave, and allow Grace rest." Jane said and everyone agreed. They all left the room leaving just Mike with Grace.
"She knew something Mike. I'm not crazy and I know exactly what I'm talking about." Grace insisted.
"I'm sure you do, but you need to rest. We are going to talk to her after you are better." Mike said and climbed the bed. He pulled Grace into his arm and kissed her.
"I was so scared, Grace. I thought something horrible was going to happen to you. I'm so sorry that I couldn't protect you, please forgive me." Mike said, and Grace grabbed his arm.
"It's nothing, Mike. I have you here with me, and that's all that matters." Grace said, and they both wrapped their hands around each other.

Meanwhile, on the other side of town. Angel has been hiding in a hotel. After that night, when she was humiliated, she was not able to get over what happened.
She thought she was finally going to be happy and marry Christopher, but she was wrong. That damn bitch came and destroyed everything. Jane took Christopher away from her, and she would make her pay dearly.
"I'm going to kill her!" Angel yelled as she gulped down the alcohol in the bottle. She picked up her phone with her shaky hands and called Jonas.
"Dad what did you come up with? You asked me to wait, and I've been waiting for five days now. That bitch is married to Chris and living in that house as his wife. We have lost everything, dad, everything!" Angel cried.
"Angel I need you to get a grip. I'm trying so hard to come up with another plan. We can take over the company another way. It doesn't have to be through marriage." Jonas tried to console her.
"You don't get it, dad. I'm in love with Chris, and I want to marry him. I will not have it any other way. You either find a way to get that bitch out of the way, or I'm going to do things my own way!" Angel yelled over the phone and slammed her phone on the floor.
She gulped the rest of the wine and made way outside her hotel room. She still has some of the poison she used back then in trying to kill that bitch.
She got into her car and checked her father's location. He wasn't home, so this is the perfect time for her to retrieve it.
Angel placed a call through to Patricia. She's the only one who is close enough, and that can help her do the job without being suspected.
"Meet me at my hotel room in an hour." Angel ordered and ended the call. She wouldn't dare cross her. She has Patricia's secret at hand.
An hour later, Angel came back to the hotel. She was able to get the poison she needed. She arrived at her hotel suite and met Patricia, waiting for her there.
"Good thing you came. I was about to call your husband and tell him everything." Angel said, and Patricia snorted.
"You look pathetic! And this place smells like wack. I can see rejection doesn't look too good on you." Patricia said, mocking her, and Angel got angry.
"Shut your stupid mouth you bitch!" Angel yelled at her.
"Now is not the time to be proud Angel. You have nothing anymore, except for your rich father. Anyways, why did you call me here?" Patricia asked and stood up.
"I called you here because I need you to do something for me." Angel said.
"I wasn't born to run your errands. I do not have the time for that." Patricia said.
"Well you do not have a choice here. If not, I'm going to expose you to Mike and tell him that you were never pregnant with his child. And that it was a lie, I will tell him everything." Angel said, and Patricia scoffed.
She brought out her phone from her purse and pretended to make a call, but she quickly put on the sound recorder. She's tired of Angel blackmailing her, so she needs something on her to get her to stop.
"And if you do that. I'm going to expose you to Chris. I will tell him the girl is not his daughter and that you only stole her." Patricia yelled.
"You would do no such thing you moron. Besides I didn't steal the child, my father bought the child. What does it even matter? The DNA test says the girl belongs to Chris." Angel countered.
"That was because you made me change the DNA results. Have you forgotten?" Patricia retorted.
"I don't give a fuck. You are going to help me. You are going to put this poison in Jane's food or drink. I need her to die, and you will help me carry it out." Angel insisted.
"I'm not going to help you carry out your dirty acts." Patricia stamped her leg on the floor.
"But I helped you carry out yours. You were never pregnant with Mike's child. The pregnancy, the scans, the miscarriage! They were all fake, and I helped you staged it." Angel shouted.
"Whatever! Do whatever you want, Mike has filed for a divorce. So I have nothing to lose anymore. There isn't even a way for me to get in their midst. Mike doesn't want to see me. He's with Grace now." Patricia revealed, and Angel was shocked.
"What!" Angel exclaimed.
"I don't care. You can find a way. Find an excuse to get into that mansion and do the damn job." Angel insisted.
"And I said no!" Patricia refused and turned around.
All of a sudden, Angel brought out a gun and pointed it at Patricia. She cocked the gun, and Patricia went still.
"Didn't you hear me?" Angel yelled, and Patricia flinched.
"If you won't help me, then you are better off dead." Angel said, and Patricia tried to run, but it was too late.
BANG! BANG!! BANG!!
Angel shot her three times without giving her any room to survive.
Angel froze on the spot as she stared at Patricia's lifeless body with blood everywhere. Her hands quivered, and the gun in her hands fell on the floor.
"No! No!! What have I done?" She muttered under her breath.
"Daddy!!" She screamed and cried. She can't be here. She needs to fly out of the country right now. Angel ran out of the room in a hurry and left the hotel without being suspected.

The following morning, everyone sat at the table taking breakfast.
"Grace are you sure it's okay for you to get out of bed?" Madam Rebecca asked and Grace nodded her head.
"It's okay grandma, it's just a bruise. It's not that deep. Besides Mike is here with me." Grace said.
"So when do you resume work, Mike? They are people dying that you need to help right?" Chris said and Mike nodded his head.
"Exactly and one of them is right here." Mike said, pointing at Grace, and everyone laughed.
"So what are we doing now? You plan on treating her forever doctor?" Jane asked.
"Well I don't mind, as long as I get to stay by her side." Mike said.
"You are so cheesy." Grace giggled.
"I'm so sorry to interrupt your breakfast, but the police are here." Estella said and everyone was shocked.
"Police!" Maria trembled. What if Whitney had gone to the police to report her?
"Let's go and see, it could be as regards what happened yesterday with Grace. Remember she was dropped at the police station. They probably have some information." Willaims said and everyone agreed.
They all walked to the sitting room and two police officers and another man were there.
"Good morning Mr Smith. So sorry to disrupt your peaceful morning. I'm investigator Jack." The investigator introduced.
