Chapter 16 (part 4)

Back with Angelica and Mercedes they made it to the cottage and went inside.

Mercedes:what will happen if Mr Chris doesn't listen to you?

Angelica:we can go to the beach there everyone knows me

Mercedes:I'm afraid for my grandfather what will happen to him if they find out that I escaped?....what will Mike do to him?

Angelica:if Mr Chris don't listen to us you can always talk to Mrs Anna right?

Mercedes:you talk like this because you don't know her she's cruel and she let Mike do whatever he wants ............I'm so afraid Angelica , we have to make it at whatever it cost.....if we go back to Robert it will be much worst

Angelica:we will never go back to that place I promise you

Meanwhile the barman was still walking with Quest and Wally in front of him.

Than an idea came to Quest and he pushed Wally on the barman the way that it

seemed like Wally fell and then he went to the barman's back and treated him to

leave them. He knocked him unconscious to the floor and they escaped away

from him.

In the morning at the Dutois mansion. Anna was in her room talking to Luana.

Anna:look Luana it's better if you don't tell anyone about what happened between Sadie and her servant ok?

Luana:sure

Anna:have you told to anyone yet?

Luana:only to Amalia

Anna:good then tell her that I ordered her to keep her mouth shut

Luana:yes Mrs

In the dining room Chris was already having coffee when Jude came in.

Chris:have you been to the chapel already?

Jude:yes

Chris:I was waiting for Sadie to have breakfast .......have you already had breakfast?

Jude:no not yet

Chris:how are things going with the school?

Jude:good

Chris:if I'm not wrong you decided to stop the vocation for a nun?

Jude:it wasn't my decision....father Dominic things that I don't have the vocation for a nun....he said that I worry too much for my family

Chris:to worry about your family is something good and I think it's your right to do it

Jude:yes but not for a nun her job is to serve god only

Chris:I understand.....I'm sure now you're thinking to form your own family.....to get married?

Jude:no deep inside me I still feel this vocation and I'm not going to stop

In that moment Sadie came in and sat down by the table.

Sadie:where are the others?

Chris:you know that Jamie takes his breakfast in his room and Tommy wakes up very early

Jude:I go check if mum is awake this morning she didn't seem that good

Jude left and Sadie and Chris were left alone.

Sadie:what were you talking about?

Chris:see that she didn't took the vote I asked her if she wanted to get married..........and she said no

Sadie:and what else have you pretended her to say Jude is crazy about you

Chris:no, don't say that

Sadie:but it's the truth and don't try to deny that you know it too....Jude was always in love with you..... you were her life

Chris:but it's crazy we never knew that well each other

Sadie:sure for her it wasn't important...she slept with your photo on her bedside table, she always talk of Chris....you don't know how much angry I was with her....but I'm happy you change you mind

In Tommy's room Tommy and Speed were talking.

Speed:Wally is still young but Quest, you know him better than me he's not a man that gives up...I'm sure it's not going to be easy to keep him down

In that moment there was a knock at the door.

Tommy:go see who it is

Speed went to open the door. Tommy from the other room heard the voice to

whom it was and went out to talk to her. When Tommy went in the room where

his guest was Speed left and went in Tommy's bed room and closed the door

behind him.

Anna:good morning

Tommy:good morning

Anna:I know that you're surprised to see me here but I thought we need to talk alone

Tommy:of course

Tommy opened the door where Speed was called him and asked him to leave

them alone. After Speed left

Anna:how you already know we are in a difficult position

Tommy:yes I know

Anna:I can't deny that you are exactly like my husband and how you know here is many people that knew him

Tommy:your employees will not talk if you order them

Anna:they are not all my employees

Tommy:are you referring to Mr Darius?

Anna:I'm not afraid of Mr Darius but of Victoria

Tommy:you scared that she will tell her daughters?

Anna:yes......... Jude is very discrete and she will never permit to tell Chris but I can't say the same about Sadie

Tommy:you don't trust her?

Anna:Sadie has another type of character you know more open

Tommy:she seems very difficult to control she always do what she want....and what do you suggest?.....I think you will do anything so you don't tell Chris

Anna:by telling my son will not give you any advantage.....you will make yourself ashamed for nothing

Tommy:are you sure?......I think he will receive me with open arms and give me what I except

Anna:no, don't even say it

Tommy:if you were a man I will bet you on it

Anna:to give someone a name you need prove

Tommy:that I'm the exact picture of my father for you is not a prove?

Anna:it's not enough and you know it better than me

Tommy:you know Mrs I don't care to have your name or that Chris finds out who I really am

Anna:very good, than I think that you accepted this work for need of money?

Tommy:you want to offer me money?

Anna:yes, how much do you want so you leave here?

Tommy:I want the half of this mansion

Anna:you're crazy

Tommy:not that much and we don't have to talk again

Anna:wait a minute you know that this request is crazy and what will we say to Chris?........I have my own money and I can give you a good amount of money that can permit you to not work anymore

Tommy:I have to think about it

Anna:you're saying the truth?

Tommy:yes

Anna:and when I are you going to give me the answer?

Tommy:in a day or two

Anna:good than we talk about it when you decide now I have to go

At the cottage where Angelica and Mercedes were staying.

Mercedes went to get something to eat and she brought some oranges with her

and went near Angelica.

Mercedes:Angelica I brought you some oranges

At first she didn't answered so Mercedes felt her head and she was very hot.

Mercedes:god you're too hot.......look Angelica it's better if you go back to the tavern

Angelica:no, no it's better if you go to the mansion

Mercedes:I think its better we tell sorry to Robert than to Mike

Angelica:no, don't do it please if you really care about me don't do it

Mercedes:but you're going to die if you continue like this

Angelica:no, I will not die

Mercedes didn't listen to her she left for help. Angelica went after her but she

was too weak to catch her.

Back at the mansion Tommy, Chris, Sadie and Speed were in Chris's office.

Chris:where is Mike?

Tommy:I don't know but I'm going to continue search for them

Chris:at this time they must be far away

Tommy:It doesn't matter I'm still going to search them they are my friends and I'm ready to find them in every way understood?

Chris:of course you already decided

With that Tommy and Speed left the office. Sadie that was sitting on the sofa now

she stood up and went near Chris.

Sadie:everything ok?

Chris:maybe I made a mistake by letting Tommy work here, Darius have told me 'Tommy doesn't obey but make orders' but I didn't listened

in Robert's tavern Mike was talking to the barman that was telling him about

what happened the night before with the prisoners.

Barman:what could I do?....I know Mr Robert will get angry but.....

He was cut off by Robert that was coming down from upstairs.

Robert:so you're here?

Mike:I came as soon I received your message and how your barman was telling me those two escaped

Robert:I know do you know that Angelica and Mercedes escaped too

Mike:what?

Mercedes was running towards Robert's tavern she wanted to help Angelica but

when she saw Mike and Robert together she stopped and hid behind a tree. She

knew they were searching for her and she left and went back to Angelica. But

when she went in the cottage to let know Angelica that they are searching for

them she found the cottage empty. Angelica left so she left the cottage to and ran

towards the mansion searching for Angelica.

In the mean time Tommy was with a group of servants searching for Quest and

Wally. They saw Mercedes and stopped near her.

Servant:she's Mercedes the nephew of Florindo.......did you escaped from Robert's tavern Mercedes?

Tommy:from Robert's tavern?

Servant:yes, from the club
