Abby shakily dialed her son’s number and called and he picked up. Chris who was with his friends frowned at his mother bugging him again.

It’s not like he’s still interested in marrying Ariana anyways. The girls was fat and ugly now, Penelope was his new beauty standard. It had to be Penny or no one else.

"Chris where are you?" Came Abby’s worried voice. She couldn’t let anything happen to her son. That sick man was probably lying. How can he know where Chris was?

"On a highway with my friends. I’ll call you later mum I gotta go." Chris ended the call immediately.

Abby was about to call back when her cellphone rang again. It was the same man calling again. This time she was super terrified of responding. What have she gotten herself into?

If she doesn’t respond, she knows he’ll kill her Chris. Abby picked the call anyway.

"W... What do you want? I’m warning you, you better not touch my son!" She threatened like any mother would, with shaky voice.

"I wasn’t wrong right?" The man’s eerie laughter sounded from the other end.

"I told you, I can kill your son in seconds."

"P... Please don’t. C... Chris has nothing to do with our agreement. If there’s anyone you should deal with it’s me." Abby cried out.

"I’m the one that made the deal with you."

"Of course, but what fun would that be? That would be me issuing a painless death." He said calmly.

She would have refunded the money here and now but they’ve already spent more than half of it. Maybe if she was still in the Adkins mansion they could have easily raised it back.

Maybe If they still had the Adkins name they would not be in this trouble.

She was desperate for money back then when she accepted and thought she could kill the madman easily. She had no idea this would backfire like this.

She shouldn’t have tried to impress anyone. She should have cut her coat according to her size. Where the hell was she supposed to raise 3billion from?

How did she even spend such money?

"You have two weeks to do my bindings else, I’ll wipe your entire family away." He ended the call.

"What’s going on Abby? Is someone blackmailing you?" Maybelline asked worriedly. Her daughter was still a part of the Peterson’s family, if Abby had gotten into trouble, somehow it would be linked to them too.

That’s all she’s worried about.

"May." Abby called with teary eyes. She was truly in trouble this time. She needed help. This was too much for her to bear.

"I need your help May. My Chris, they’re going to kill him if I do nothing." Abby cried and May frowned.

"Need my help with what?" Maybelline asked. She didn’t want to get involved in Abby’s mess. She wasn’t there when it started, why should she get involved now.

One thing Maybelline would never do is get into trouble for anyone. Be it her family or a stranger. That is how she was taught and she’s going to live that way. She was selfish, and she loved it.

Abby’s lips trembled. She didn’t know where to start, and where to end. She was in deep trouble right now.

She couldn’t begin to Admit of accepting billions to kill the Adkins heir. She had two options now, Pay back the money, or kill the mad heir. But how was she supposed to do that?

"Y... You remember the money I spoke about?" Abby asked and May frowned deeper.

Abby had spoken about a miraculous money and had told her not to plan for Ariana’s engagement party anymore and that she would make it grand. She had wondered where her dear friend got the money from but said nothing about it.

"What about the money Abby? Did you borrow it?" May asked but Abby shook her head.

She took a deep breath and then tried to calm down. "The money was given by a strange man." The man that claimed to be the Adkin’s relative. Now Abby thought of it, the Adkins never claimed to have any relatives, infact, Dewitt Adkins seemed to be the only one they know about so how did that man come about?

Abby told Maybelline about everything that happened and how she had foolishly accepted the deal and now she couldn’t do it.

They were kicked out of the Adkins mansion for good. How the hell are they supposed to kill Osvaldo right now even if they wanted to try. That madman never leaves the penthouse so how would she kill him.

This is the most impossible task ever.

Maybelline was silent for a while and after what seemed like eternity, she finally spoke. "This is easy, kill him." She declared.

Abby stared at her friend with wide eyes. Kill him? Did she really know what she was talking about? It was impossible to kill the mad heir.

Not only was the Adkins estate bombarded with security, the madman was dangerous. How are they supposed to kill him?

She couldn’t forget what she has seen him to. How he tied those two guards to in unimaginable state. How he had teared their guards in the past. It was a horrific experience.

Abby couldn’t imagine going through that.

"How do we do that? That man is untouchable." May hissed.

"Who say we have to be there? There are so many ways to kill a rat Abby. Unless you have a better idea. Which is the money." May crossed her legs.

Abby quickly fell to her knees and May almost smiled. Who knew that one day, this woman that always act as if she was bigger than God himself would be kneeling before her. It was truly a sight to behold.

A former treasure has become an object of mockery. All Maybelline could see was a woman beneath her right now.

"May, we have known each other for a while now. I have done things no one else could do for you. Please help me with a few billions. I know you and David are worth more than that. I’ll pay you back soon." Abby pleaded and May’s frown deepened.

"How insufferable!" May spat. "I give you an ultimatum and you just toss it aside like trash.

Do you think billions fall from the sky? Do you know what a billion can do? Where the hell do I get it from?" May asked.

"If you think because we’re worth 20billion it’s in our accounts, then you must be a fool Abby. Your net worth does not define your account balance. And how are you supposed to pay back the billions?" May mocked.

"Through my teeth?"

"Listen here Abby. I don’t care if we’re in laws or long time friends. And the things you claim to do for me were things you were destined to do. I am not destined to get you out of the trouble you got into yourself.

It’s not my fault you’re bad a making business deals. If you will not listen to my idea, then suit yourself." Maybelline rolled her eyes.

Abby was desperate, she needed help. She couldn’t possibly kill the Adkins heir, how the hell was she supposed to do that? Was Maybelline setting her up?

She couldn’t believe she had helped this wicked woman in the past. But then she caused this to herself. She should never have trusted anyone. People love to use people and she was another victim of it.

"By your suggestion, how do I kill him?" Abby asked finally and Maybelline smiled.

"Seat Abby, this is going to be so easy." She said and Abby rose to seat back on her seat.

"This is what I had expected earlier. You don’t complain, you listen." May smiled. "First, we need to get you back in that mansion." Abby shook her head.

It seems May didn’t get the lawyers words that day. She was band from staying there forever. They no longer has the Grace they used to have. Infact, the only reason they had even allowed them there the other day was because of their business with the Adkins.

"May, I can not longer go in there, no matter what. And we can persuade Penny too, she’ll never let us stay." May nodded.

"I’m quite aware. I didn’t mean staying there. I mean stepping out feet in there. You know a few people, we can tell them to help us with our job." May smiled.

"What job?" Abby asked.

"I have a few friends that can end that monster in minutes. You should have told me about your plans before now, and we would have done it before Ariana’s engagement." May scolded her friend, then she clicked her tongue.

"But anyways, it’s not too late. The madman can still die either ways. We don’t have to blame Penny for anything before doing what we want."
