Chapter 6
It had been a week and Sami wasn't getting any reprieve from Lucas. He kept pursuing her and telling her how much he loved her. She was starting to give in.
Then it happened. The note had been delivered and now Lucas and Will were gone and everyone hated her. Yet again. It just wasn't fair. Sami wanted to hit something or someone but didn't know who to blame.
She knew her mother was right. She had no one to blame but herself. But dammit, couldn't someone just believe in her? Just once?
At least she had E.J. And he liked the way her mind worked. He liked her. He was attractive too. Had a decent job, brought home money.
She let her mind wander for a minute but knew she would only be happy with Lucas who had left her once again.
She growled to herself as she left the grocery store and went to the park. She wasn't going to go into the park but then she heard two voices that stopped her.
"So everything is working to plan."
"Yes. Stefano will be happy with the work that we've accomplished."
"His plans for Tony?"
"To let him stay in jail for the time being. His plan for the killings didn't go well at all. Stefano never even got a chance to see Marlena."
"Yeah and Sami stopped him a couple of times."
"What do you think the residents of Salem would say if they knew that Sami had inadvertently saved nearly everyone's lives including Kate's?"
Both men laughed. Then the one subsided. "I think it's time to give Sami the tape that will send her over the edge. Show her that no one really cares about her and never has. Including Lucas. Knock him off the pedestal that she carries him on."
"You're right. Once Sami listens to that tape, she will be gone forever and her and Lucas will never get together. Stefano will have nothing to worry about. For Sami will never forgive Lucas."
"You are right. You are right."
"Soon we won't even need that chip in Samantha Gene Brady's head. She will willingly do whatever Stefano asks her to do."
The two men left unaware that they had just been overheard by a seething Samantha Gene Brady.
