Chapter 154
“Please wait…” Maria who has been standing behind the door walked into the living room. “I did it..” She said.
Everyone turned to her and Irish’s mouth fell open.
Her eyes glistened with tears, knowing Maria hadn’t done anything, she was trying to save her.
“Mrs Irish told me how much she loved my voice whenever i sing to her, i was about to record myself singing so she’ll listen to it anytime I’m not around to sing to her because she told me how much she missed my songs while i was off for a day. We were about doing that before you came in to get her Mr Morgan, and i guess she was so excited to meet the guests that sheforgot to exit the app” Maria said, sounding so convincing that Irish almost believed her herself. “Yes.. yes, that’s it” Irish quickly said, wiping her tears.
Morgan looked remorseful as he dropped to his knees before her.
Maria picked Irish’s phone.
“Irish…. I’m sorry” Morgan said, touching her arm but she jerked his hand away.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
“I can’t believe you still do not trust me” She said, looking angry as she got to her feet.
“Irish, please I’m so sorry. I thought Javad was right when you didn’t say anything to defend yourself . I thought you wanted to betray me” Morgan said, looking at her pleadingly. Javad was shocked to see Morgan act like a dummy before Irish.
This lady is a witch! She has enchanted Morgan the way she did to Ethan.
This is just unbelievable.
“I couldn’t defend myself because i was still so shocked that our accomplices turned out to be Javad and Gladys but you didn’t even give me time to recover from the shock before ordering them to throw me in the back of your limo. What were you going to do to me?” Irish asked.
Her body still reeling from the shock that the accomplices turned out to be Javad and Gladys.
Although she has always being suspicious of Javad from day one but she was still so shocked to find out he was the spy and not only him but Gladys also.
Gladys whom Mrs Gabrielle detested.
They’ve both been working for Ethan for years.. how long have they been working for Morgan?
~There are hundreds of Javad in the world~ Carl’s words rang in her ears.
Of course there are hundreds and even thousands of Javad in the world, why did it turn out to be the one they knew, the one Ethan trusted so much.
And Catherine had tried to hide his identity, that simply means she knows about it all.
She’s aware of everything.
How could Catherine also do this to Ethan.
Breaking his heart wasn’t enough, they ended up planting spies in his house!
And now, they are planning to kill him when he didn’t even wrong them in any way.
Why are people so cruel.
Morgan dismissed the bodyguards around them so they could have some privacy while they talk.
“If Maria hadn’t spoken up, what would you have done to me? Would you have killed me?” Irish asked.
“I thought you were going to betray me, I’m so sorry Irish. Please” Morgan pleaded.
“You should know i will never betray you, i told you how much i hate Ethan now”
“I know that also but who wouldn’t have thought you were trying to record our conversation after seeing your phone screen, you would have thought the same if you were in my shoes. Just forgive me Irish, please” Morgan said.
“It’s fine Morgan, i know you trusted me, your anger got the better part of you” Irish said. “Exactly!” Morgan said.
He knew she would never betray him, he was only clouded with anger then.
“But if i had really done that, would you have killed me?” Irish asked and she almost shook in fear when Morgan nodded.
“I don’t spare betrayals, i make them die a slow and painful death” He said.
“Of course” Irish hid her fears behind her smile.
Morgan would have killed her if Maria hadn’t lied!
She would have been tortured to death.
The thought alone made her shiver.
“Are you cold?” Morgan asked.
“A bit” She lied.
“Should i order them to turn on the heater” Morgan asked.
“No, it’s fine. I’m fine” Irish said.
She glanced at Javad and Gladys who were standing before her.
They both looked like they didn’t care what she thought about them.
One should really be careful, these two people could have easily poisoned Ethan and no one would ever suspect them.
“Looks like, you’re still shocked to find out Javad and Gladys are involved” Morgan said. “Not anymore, i don’t care the people involved, all i wanted was to meet them and I’m glad i have. Nice to meet you Javad, Gladys” Irish said and they shook hands.
Irish’s trying hard to look like she was fine with them but she’s deeply bothered.
“There’s no need for introduction, we know ourselves already” Gladys said.
“Of course” Irish feigned a smile.
They all sat down and Ethan ordered the cooks to serve them drinks.
Irish didn’t take a sip out of the drink she was served, she only looked at Javad and Gladys keenly.
“So, you wanted to discuss the plan with them right?” Morgan asked Irish.
“Uh.. yeah. So how are you both gonna go about the poisoning, are you going to add it in his meal?” Irish asked.
“You don’t have to know that, we’ve planned everything out with Mr Morgan” Javad said, not trusting Irish a bit.
“C’mon, we’re colleagues now and Morgan introduced you guys to me so we could iron everything out smoothly” Irish said.
“I think it’s unnecessary for you to know about how we’re gonna go about the plan, yeah, we are now colleagues but you shouldn’t press us for details, you know we’re going to be poisoning that weak ass, you don’t have to know how we’ll go about it” Gladys said and Irish felt like draggingher hair for calling Ethan a weak ass.
“And why are you finding it hard to discuss the details with me! Didn’t you discussed it withMorgan and Catherine? What problem do you have with discussing it with me also” Irish half yelled.
“We do not trust you!” Javad retorted.
“Who cares if you trust me or not. Morgan trusts me and that’s all that matters” Irish said. “Will you both start giving her the details of the plan now! I told you she’s trustworthy! Don’t get on my nerves” Morgan warned.
“We’re sorry boss” Gladys and Javad said in unison.
“Will you do the talking?” Gladys asked Javad.
“You should” Javad said, lifting his drink to his lips.
He watched Irish closely.
“Whenever Mr Morgan gives us the go ahead to take down Ethan, I’ll poison his dinner and he’s going to die in his sleep” Gladys said and Irish hands shook around the glass cup.
She tried not to show her agitation as she stared at Gladys.
“Why does it have to be dinner and not lunch or breakfast?” Irish asked.
“So no one would come to his rescue, everyone would be asleep by the time he starts writhingin pain and he wouldn’t even be able to call for help because of the effect the poison would have had on him” Gladys said and Irish remembered what Ethan told her about Carrle’s death. Carrle was poisoned overnight and no one had heard her call for help till the next morning when they decided to check on her and it was too late, she had given up by the time they got to the hospital.
Till now, they were yet to apprehend Carrle’s murderer, could that be the reason they want to use that method on Ethan also so it’ll be difficult for the cops to apprehend them.
