Chapter 7 (part 3)
Still in prison but they went to talk to Tommy in his cell.
Tommy:he wants all this money? Robert is a thief and a cheater my men had never touched that money but he had cheated
Darius:no one is saying otherwise but what can we do? In this town justice does not exist and Robert is a relative of Leopardi
Tommy:that bastard I have something but not that much what he pretends...what a stupid I was... how could I haven't seen it coming
Darius:I would like to help you but my finances are not good too
Tommy:no, no don't even say it...I will sell the 'Devil'...the thing is that if I sell the boat I can't work anymore...and all is happening now that I wanted to save some money so I can leave this job and...
Kyle:I can tell people in town (of course the one like Tommy and Kyle poor people) if they can give me something they all love you
Tommy:they don't have enough money to eat how they can give you something for this...it will be unfair...Robert Mcbright is not worth it for this sacrifice
At Tommy's house there were Quest, Speed, Wally and Kyle talking about how they can
help Tommy out of the prison.
Quest:it's a big some Kyle...it will take us months to put all that money together
Wally:I have the money that Mr Dutois gave me
Quest:they are not enough
Kyle:there is nothing else to do but to sell the boat...that bastard I have told Tommy that he's a cheater ...it's beginning to rise
Quest:why don't you go to that English guy... he had already told Tommy to sell him the boat
At the Dutois mansion Chris was talking to his mother about how work he has to
do and that he have not much time to see Sadie.
Anna:why don't you invite aunty Victoria and Sadie here so we can plan the wedding together?
Chris:yes, it will be a great idea and I will have time to see you too
Chris went outside to go see what the workers were doing when someone came
from behind him it was Angelica.
Angelica:Mr you live here?
Chris:yes
Angelica:do you know Mr Chris Dutois?
Chris:yes, I am Chris Dutois
Angelica:oh, I'm glad I found you, Mr Mills wants to talk to you it's something urgent
Chris:has something happened to him?
Angelica:no, he's fine it's about Tommy Quincy he's in prison
At the Harrison's house in Jude's room. Jude was getting dressed in the nun's
dress. When there was a knock at her door and in came Sadie.
Sadie:you're already awake?
Jude:it's not that early
Sadie:I didn't referred about the time but that you were sick
Jude:I feel much better
Sadie:why did you put that dress on?
Jude:and in which other way I have to dress Sadie? I'm in my preparation time to be a nun
Sadie:yes, but know you're at home and it's too hot to put on your vale
Jude:where is mum?
Sadie:she went at the mall with Carmen
Jude:at what time Chris is coming?
Sadie:at eleven
Jude:I will stay with you only a couple of minutes so it's better if he says in hurry what he has to say because I want to get back to the convent
Sadie:ok
Jude:I'm going in the kitchen
At the convent Victoria went to talk to the sisters. She was waiting in the garden
when a sister approached her.
Sister:how are you Victoria?
Victoria:a little bit worried about Jude's sickness
Sister:is it something big?
Victoria:no, but I'm here because of this. I wanted to ask for your permission to leave Jude stay home for another week
Sister:is she that bad?
Victoria:no, the temperature is normal now but the doctor said that she's very weak and that she needs rest
Sister:I understand but we can take care of her too and it's against the rules to be a long time out of the convent and she still has things to learn to be a nun
Victoria:please I'm asking just for a week
Sister:if you insist but this means that she will take the votes later than the others
Victoria:but even her health is important
Sister:yes, it's true but it's more important to serve god but if you really insist
Victoria:thank you
At Darius's house Chris went with Jamie to talk to Darius.
Chris:fine I will pay for the sum
Darius:thanks I knew you will have offered
Jamie:I don't know why you are doing this, you can't pay that sum
Chris:I want that Tommy gets out of prison
Jamie:I'm not saying not to help him but it's not necessary to pay that sum if they were going to the government tax I will agree but I bet everything that those money are going all in that bustard's pocket
Darius:I know that this is a bad thing but what else can we do?
Jamie:let me take care about this
Chris:no, Jamie I know exactly your methods...and I don't want something to go even more wrong
Jamie:what wrong things this will be fun and if you want you can give me money...so are we leaving lawyer
Darius:let's go
Chris:fine, but I'm coming with you
Jamie:you know you already took all the fun from this...Leopardi is going to be afraid when he will find out who you are
They left the office to go to the prison. Angelica was listening to everything they
were saying. When they left she went back in the kitchen with other servant that
Darius had.
Angelica:they left...I heard them saying that they were going to talk to Leopardi
Servant:don't tell me you were ear dropping?
Angelica:and how else could I know what they were saying?...don't you think that I'm afraid of what happened to Tommy?
Servant:that arrogant deserves this and even more I assure you
Angelica:Tommy is not arrogant he's a good man and gives people money to help them
Servant:yes, but money brought illegally...after all the point is not this you have to stop ear dropping or I will tell Mr Mills...have you already did the bedroom?
Angelica:I was doing it
Servant:in other words you didn't do it yet hurry go and do it and remember you have laundry to do these girls of these days they are all lazy and they melt when they see a man
At the prison Chris, Jamie and Darius had arrived.
Director:ah, it's you have you brought the money?
Darius:no, not exactly these gentlemen want to talk to you
Jamie:we want to see Mr Leopardi
Director:it's me
Jamie:you?
Director:yes, why you don't like me?
Jamie:how it's low now a day..
Director:listen...
Jamie:listen you sir first the rules of the police is that they are neat in full uniforms and you seem that you came out of bed and we heard that there was an abuse on one of your prisoners Tommy Quincy
Director:you were not well informed the guy Tommy Quincy he had refused to pay for a lost game not only but he took the money of the bet and with a knife he made a cut on the opponents hand
Jamie:there are witnesses that say that the opponent had cheated
Director:it's not true I can guaranty it
Jamie:ok then we have on our scale...you was the name of the opponent?
Darius:Robert Mcbright
Jamie:Robert Mcbright with his version and Tommy Quincy on the other one and of course as you are a relative of Robert the scale will be in his favour but if me and this other gentleman here take the part of Tommy Quincy...
Director:(was getting really angry with Jamie's games) I ONLY RESPECT THE JUSTICE NOTHING ELSE
Jamie:fine than so let's take this to court so we can listen to the witnesses of both sides ...and to make things more fast we can always come to an accord
Director:(laughing) are you trying to co romp me sir?
Jamie:no, of course I will never go that level the level that of course Robert had been to make you take his part
Director:I will not leave you to talk to me like this
Jamie:I don't need your permission...and so you know you are the one losing here...if Tommy Quincy will result guilty you will have just lost some time but if he'll be innocent you will lose everything your position because you are having the honour to talk to the nephew of the commandant personally and with Chris Dutois
Director:Mr Dutois?
In Tommy's cell a guardian and Darius went to open his cell.
Darius:you're free to leave Tommy
Tommy:free and the money
Darius:they were not necessary anymore
Tommy:and thanks to what miracle?
Darius:not a miracle just thanks to someone ready to show up to get you free from here Chris Dutois
Tommy:Chris?
Darius:yes, him
Tommy:are you saying that he corrupted Leopardi to get me out of here? It must have cost him a lot of money at least the blood of 10 servants
Darius:don't be unrighteous….Chris didn't corrupt anyone….it has served only his presence and his……his name to change everything
Tommy:and who told him to help me?
Darius:I asked for his help
Tommy:you did wrong …. I would have preferred to stay and die here other than be in debit with him
At the Harrison's house in Jude's room. Victoria was telling her daughter that she
went to the convent and what she asked to the sister.
Jude:why did you do it mother?
Victoria:because you need to get you health back and even the sister is with me
Jude:but I'm not
Victoria:it's only for a day or two
Jude:please mother why don't you understand this is not the way to help me …. I need to go back to the convent and pray and continue with my spirit work
Victoria:but the sister preferred to you remain here
And with that she left Jude alone and with her thoughts.
Jude's thoughts 'why are they doing this to me I just want to go back to the
convent there I will be safe this feeling that I'm having will go away and I will stop
thinking of him.'
On the beach Tommy was walking to the Harrison's house. Meanwhile with Chris
and Jamie they were walking to the Harrison's house too.
Chris:yes, but have you thought about if Leopardi could have checked if you were or not the commandant's nephew
Jamie: and you think that someone like him will have the courage?...now the case is solved and your Tommy Quincy is out
Chris:and changing the subject I'm taking you to my aunty with me because you insisted but I ask you a favour if there will be Jude don't say anything about my engagement with Sadie and don't even try to say something about her decision to be s nun
Jamie:what are you saying I'm a gentleman...I just want to see her that's all and maybe even say hi to Sadie don't forget that I liked her too
Chris:yes but that story now is over now she's my fiancé
Jamie:yes, of course
Tommy arrived at the Harrison's house when he saw Chris and another man with
him (of course we all know that the other person was Jamie but he doesn't) they
were walking inside the entrance of the Harrison's house.
Teasers:
Jamie and Jude will meet what will Jamie's thought of Jude will be and can he
keeps his promise he made to Chris about not making fun of the nun thing?
Will Sadie tell to Chris that Jude knows about their engagement or will someone
else say something?
