Chapter 78:BLAME GAME

A few hours later,I decided to pay a warm visit to Britney's house to tell her husband the bad news..As soon as I rang the bell he opened the door and he looked worried..He immediately recognised me and let me in then he offered me some tea and I coldly accepted without showing concern for Britney..He sat down and stuttered a bit..Then I interrupted him..

London:It's been a while since I came here..*Smirks*..Still as posh as the first time I came..

I sipped the tea and looked at her husband's uneasy face and then I continued..

London:You seemed worried..

I said blankly..

Terrence steadied himself and was able to speak..

Terrence:Britney isn't home yet and Brie has been crying for a while now..the nanny has tried her best to calm her down..

I cut in his speech midway..

London:Your wife was arrested for harming our oldest worker..

I continued to sip the tea and Terrence stared at me completely shocked..

Terrence:Wait what?..I don't understand..how?..What did she do?..

London:Terrence..your questions should be asked to your wife not me..

Terrence darted his eyes around confused..

London:Did you know that her boss is a master manipulator?..

Terrence looked at me keenly trying to understand what I meant..

London:We have all come to the conclusion that he ordered her to do what she did..and Britney being a loyal worker to him..did what he told her to..

Terrence:Britney can never do this to anyone for anyone..she's a good person..there must be some misunderstanding..

London:You still don't believe me do you..

I said to him calmly in a low tone while looking at him keenly without blinking..

London:Ok..go inquire about it all..ask your brother in law and everyone else in the office..and most importantly request for a CCTV footage check..you'll have the answers to your questions..

I stood up and turned around walking away with an evil smirk on my face leaving him deep in thought..

(Meanwhile..

Policewoman:You guys have 5 minutes for that conversation..she needs to be interrogated..

Garry:Britney..I don't understand anything..Or what's going on..I..I..I..I've never been this confused about anything in my life before..

Britney:Bro relax..Don't worry..the truth always prevails..I'll be out of here soon..just be patient..and you know I can never hurt Mr James right?..

Garry nodded agreeing with his sister..

Britney:And I also don't know how I got blood on my hand..It all happened under my nose..I think someone is framing me..

Garry:If so then who?..

Policewoman:Your time is up man..start leaving..

Garry and Britney looked at each other one last time knowing that they couldn't continue their conversation..

Garry:I promise you..I and Terrence will get you out of here..

Britney:He doesn't even know about it..

Britney said with tears in her eyes..

Garry:Don't worry I'll tell him about the situation..

Britney:Ok..

(Later..

Terrence arrived at the De la cruz company and looked for Mace everywhere..In the middle of his search he met Garry who just came back from visiting Britney in jail..

Terrence:Garry..

Garry:Terrence..how did you get here?..

Terrence:I heard what happened to Britney..

Garry:Terrence..I don't know what to think about this honestly..

Terrence:There's only one thing that we can do..

Garry looked at Terrence puzzled and then He asked for where Mace was and Garry led him to Mace who was still with the rest of the police and some detectives as well..

Garry:Mace..this is my brother in law..Terrence..Britney's husband..

They both shook hands and Mace apologised for what happened to Britney and Terrence accepted kindly..then he spoke of security cameras and Mace replied that they were only in the hallways and social areas not in the individual offices and the storeroom as well but he agreed to check..

The three men walked to the security room and told the man in charge to check the footage at the time of when Mr James headed towards the storeroom and then after he entered the storeroom..

Little did they know that I had drugged the security camera guy and used a potion to make it look like Britney went there..and when they all saw this in the footage Garry and Terrence were beyond shocked..They couldn't believe that Britney could ever do such a thing..

Terrence:I don't understand..

Terrence shook his head in disbelief and held his forehead sighing slowly with his eyes closed.Garry was completely speechless that he just stood there shocked at everything and I watched from the balcony of my office smirking..

Now that this masterplan has worked it's only a matter of time that Armando will hear the news and he will try to protect the reputation of his company..That is..If he can..And man!The conflicts that are gonna occur makes my blood itch impatient to see it all..

With the blame on both Lewis and Britney..Armando will end up screwing himself when the media arrives to question his absence and due to the tension he might even say something not intended..and that will mark the crumbling of his precious empire...I can't wait to see his end..

And I'll be the cause of it..
