Chapter 8: Wicked daughter-in-law.
On getting to his office, Raymond ordered his PA to send the sum of 10 million into Frances' account, which he did immediately.
Frances was at the dinning table eating because she couldn't afford to leave with an empty stomach. She already packed her clothes and other little accessories she has left, but they were still upstairs in the room. She didn't want any of the servants to see her leaving with an huge bag, she thought of sending them away to their quarters.
While eating, she got the alert of the money she had requested from Raymond, she knew Raymond is someone nobody could mess with and go freely, but she doesn't care about life or humans showing their other side to her. With everything she had gone through these days, she isn't afraid of anyone anymore, what will be will be.
She saw the money, 10 million and continued eating. The money isn't a freak for her, she was once at that affluence position, but with time she believes she would regain all back.
She finished eating and called Butler French who was in the garden, beautifying the flowers.
"Butler French". She called out to the old man.
"Yes madam, how may I help you?". He left what he was doing to answer her.
"I am feeling a little dizzy and weak, I just want to be alone for now". She pretended to be sick, acting so weak.
"Oh madam, should I help you prepare some herbal drink, then I help you call on the doctor". He said feeling worried about the master's wife.
"No Butler French, can I just be alone to rest for some hours, I'll call you and the other servants when I wake". She said acting like a sick person.
"Ohhh, is it that? You are free madam. I'll inform the other servants now, we would leave to our quarters. Please don't hesitate to call on us if you need us for anything". He smiled and left.
After confirming they had left the mansion to their quarters, Frances packed all her things and left. Within some minutes she got to the airport and booked a flight to a small city in England, Lichfield.
In the night when Raymond came home, he met Butler French coming out from the kitchen, while the other servants were setting the dinning table.
"Where is she?". He asked in a cold tone looking around.
"She is upstairs young master. She had complained of dizziness and weakness earlier today, she told us not to disturb her that she would be taking some nap". Butler French replied gently.
"Hasn't she woken up since?" Raymond thought she was still not feeling well, he decided to call his doctor again.
"We don't know, but we haven't seen her since then. We decided not to disturb the young madam".
"Alright" Ramond replied and went upstairs.
He got to her bedroom and found her belongings absent, he checked her wardrobe and even the restroom, he couldn't find anything belonging to her. It then dawned on him that she had tricked him.
This lady dared lying to him, he smiled and left for his study room angrily. The doctor who he had called for her called him back.
"Hello young master, how may I help you?". The doctor spoke politely.
"Forget". Scott said this one sentence to him and cut the call.
When his men, Sky and Roger found out about Frances' elopement, they were so angry and unhappy for their boss. Who could tame the great Stafford in this City. They knew their master hates women, they wonder why he choosed to like Frances.
"Boss, you know we can connect with our troops outside here, should we trace her and bring her to you?" Roger said impatiently.
When Raymond heard what Roger said, his temper rose. "Get out". He sent both of them outside his office.
"And, don't try looking for her. Let her be". He ordered.
Paris also asked after Frances when she couldn't see her for some days she had been coming to his mansion. He had told her to forget about her, she looked at him and decided to not bother about the couple.

The D-day for Marcus and Charlotte wedding was today. The wedding took place in a big hall in Macedonia. They invited well known people in Macedonia, there were varieties of dishes and varieties of people.
The wedding was so glamorous that Marcus mother's friends were all astonished. Before the wedding started, Charlotte was alone with her mother in law. She talked to her about some of her new requests. "Mother, do you remember what you had promised me?" She acted coettishly.
"What is that my wife". Stompson Anna, Marcus mother pretended to be happy.
"I know you have fulfilled today's dream already, but I want you to persuade your son to give me half of his properties or am I asking too much?" Charlotte said almost crying.
"Huh?". Anna was shocked when she heard this. What a wicked daughter-in-law, she just want to spoil and destroy the life of her only son.
She immediately changed her expression and said. "Oh dear, you don't need that. Since it is for Marcus your husband, then that means it is for you also". She said trying to change her thought, but never will it work on Charlotte.
"Really? Then why do you steal your husband's first wife properties? You shouldn't have look for some scheme to get what is not yours mother". Charlotte said pretending to cry.
"Hm, okay okay, I'll do as you want". Anna gave her a wicked expression and smiled.
"Mother what is wrong with your face? Do you get hurt? At least I asked you in a polite way, not some devilish acts like some people". Charlotte took her drink beside her, she drank little and watch her mother-in-law forcefully smiling at her.
