“Not even when it concerns Arabella?” Jenna said and that made him reconsider his words.

“What do you mean?”Gerald asked starring at her.

“If you want to know then let’s talk properly. I won’t negotiate with you while standing ” Jenna told him as she went to seat on the visitor chair.

“I will stay to talk to her but still cancel my appointment”He said to the secretary who nodded and left the two alone.

“Now what do you want?”

“Before I start talking. I better play this for you to listen to” Jenna said as she brought out her phone.

Gerald stood listening and he was surprised to hear Arabella voice in the recording.

It had been the disscussion she had with her father. That was the day he had been eavesdropping and also the day he found out the truth about Arabella.

“Interesting right?”Jenna asked.

“How did you get that? You weren’t even with us during the trip?”Gerald asked.

“I have my means. I didn’t go with you during the trip but I had my people amongst the staff who went with you. She did an excellent job and that’s not all.

Listen to another”Jenna said as she played another recording and this time it was Arabella disscussion with John. The one she had with him in the garden.

“Now I get it! You were the one who tipped the reporters off “Gerald said and she nodded.

“I did but I only wrote them a message and gave them a little piece of evidence. I didn’t give them this recording”She told him.

“This recording can ruin Arabella image for the rest of her life.

Think about it, her fans are certainly angry but how will Fiona react when she hears about the way she had been abandoned by her mother and Grandparents.

It won’t only hurt Arabella but it will also hurt Fiona” Jenna told him with a smile.

“What do you want in exchange. You wouldn’t have come to me if you didn’t want something in exchange for your silence”Gerald said to her.

“Your right! I do want something in return for keeping me shut”Jenna told him.

“How much are we talking about here?”Gerald asked.

“And who is asking for money? I do have my own money Gerald and money isn’t what I want from you. I want something else”She told him.

“And what will that be?”Gerald asked while she gave a mischievous smile.

“How is she?”Arabella asked Mrs Milly who had been with Fiona all day.

“Sad. The poor thing was shocked to find out the truth about you and she’s still coming to terms with you being her mom only for those crazy reporters to file in and create more havoc.

I suggest that you should let her be for today. To be honest with you, she’s still angry at you and keeps on saying she hates you.

It will only worsen if you see her now”Mrs Milly told her.

“Alright but please help me watch over her” Arabella implored and Mrs Milly nodded in reply.

She was decending the stairs when Gerald walked into the mansion.

“Your home”She said as she gave him a kss before reliving him of the things he carried.

“How are you feeling? “he asked.

“If your asking due to what it’s going on? Then all I can say is that I feel relieved” She told him.

“Relieved?”

“Yes. The truth came out so there is no need for me to keep pretending to be what am not. My fans are angry but it would soon die down.

What worries me now is Fiona. She wouldn’t let me see her”Arabella said looking hurt and Gerald hugged her close

“She will come to understand soon. Just take it easy with her” Gerald said.

“I will. All of this is happening because of John. I can’t believe the nerve of the jerk! How could he give me out like that?”Arabella shrieked out.

“Did you think John did it?”Gerald asked.

“I didn’t think he did it, I know he did it and all that is just to get back at me”She told him looking very angry.

“John didn’t do it”

“What? He is the only one with a motive to…..”

“It was Jenna. Jenna did it”Gerald told her and for a while Arabella absorbed the news.

“But why? How did she find out about it?”Arabella asked and Gerald told her how Jenna put a spy amongst the staff.

“That wtch!”Arabella said fiercely. If Jenna had been in front of her, she would have pulled her hair out.

“I blamed John for it all. I even sIapped him on the face”Arabella told Gerald.

“If I had been in your shoes too, I would have also reacted the same way but now that you know.

Its only right that you apologise to him” Gerald told her and she nodded in reply.

The door bell rang and since the maid nor Mrs Milly was nearby. Gerald went to answer the door.

“Gerald is it the report……”She stopped when Gerald walked into the room with John and her father trailing behind him.

“What’s going on?”Arabella asked the two men waiting for an explanation.

“I came to set things straight and speaking to your daughter who is my grandchild is the first thing I will do ” Arabella’s father stated with determination.
