The Revenge Episode 20


Review from the last episode

When my breathing returned to normal, I closed my eyes to think of a plan to get out of the hospital but the only thing my brain sang in my head is
"Sharron is Lisa, Lisa is Sharron"
I found her or rather she came to me

Sharron 
I was tied to a chair in a dark room, no windows, everywhere dirty, filled with cobwebs and unpleasant smell.
Rats and mosquitoes have been my companion for the past nine days. Tears rolled down my cheeks as I thought about Steve, Evans, Jessica and the family I ran away from since high school. I could only pray and hope Evans is still alive because I know he'll find me by all means.
"Lord, please if you get me out of here alive, I promise to make peace with my family." I'm fed once a day and being treated like a prisoner. More than one account, I've been molested but never raped. I don't know why they keep holding back but I'm grateful.
"Stop wallowing in regret Sharron, think of a way out!!" my mind screamed at me.
I tugged at the rope harder again, it didn't give in. The door opened, revealing a tall lanky man.
The air around him felt different from that of my story kidnappers. Since I can't see him, I strained my ears to pick up sounds. I hear him come closer to me and felt his breath on my cheek.
"I warned you Sharron, I gave every warning I could to scare you away but you're so adamant and that's what will lead to your death" his husky voice said disappointedly. "I hate to see you here sitting helplessly but there's nothing I can do" he continued " In two days’ time, that approximately forty eight hours, you'll be dead and........."
"Boss!!" one of the kidnappers screamed in shock. “I didn't know you're here, I'm so sorry but why are you wearing a mask?" he asked
"I don't want to contact a disease" he replied "take good care of her so she'll be hale and hearty before she dies."
"Okay Boss."
"Dear voice, why do you seem familiar?" I asked myself and racked my brain trying to remember where I've heard the voice. My eyes opened my in horror as I finally placed the voice.
"STAN!!!!!!"
Evans
I couldn't keep the excitement off my face the following morning. I devised a plan last night and I can only put it off this morning, with dad's help of course but he wouldn't know what I'm up to. Now that I have Sharron or should I say Lisa, I would never let her out of my sight again"
"My baby" Dad cooed as he entered my ward
"The most caring and handsome dad in the world, good morning Papa" I grinned at him
He came over to hug me " whatever plan you are devising this time wouldn't work" he whispered in my ear " I have more than 20 guards in each floor of this hospital and even more outside in every perimeter.
"Is it bad to be happy to see my father?" I grinned even harder
"I don't trust you" he eyed me suspiciously and looked away shrugging after few seconds.
Few minutes later,
"Dad I need your help" I approached with caution.
"I've been expecting that" he muttered.
"Let's make a business transaction with Steve Davies Company"
"And who's that? When did you suddenly become interested in things like this?"
"You'll know later just do it, and send me there to give him papers to sign"
"You're not going anywhere" he replied calmly " I'll think about what you said"
"No dad, place a call to him now and tell him your lawyer will be coming over in a few minutes with some documents to sign if he agrees"
"I don't......." he tried saying but I interrupted
"Please dad" I pleaded with urgency
"Fine" he scoffed and placed the call
At Steve's Company
"Come in" he shouted to the person knocking
Evans entered, looking professional as ever. He looked around the office with amusement. “I must admit, you have a very good taste"
"Thanks, who are you?"
"I'm the lawyer representing the Johnson's company and I'm here with the necessary documents" he said and brought out the documents from his bag and handed over to Steve
"Okay, please you may sit" Steve replied
"I have another place to be, you have less than one minute to skim through the ten pages documents in case you don't trust us" Evans said
"No, no I do trust your company and it's an honour to have you here" Steve said quickly, "where do I sign?"
"Thanks for you trust, Please sign in the bookmarked pages"
"Thank you" Steve said after signing and shook hands with Evans who only smiled cheekily
"You're most welcome" Evans replied and left, gathering the documents back in his bag.
"Plan A done" Evans laughed happily in his car.
"Sharron isn't legally yours anymore Steve"
"Plan B, find Sharron"
He drove out of the company premises, playing one of Westlife albums and singing along.
