_____Ivy Royals____

Jessica smiled as Jane and Paris yelled at each other.

“You’re a bitch!” Jane shouted.
“You are too! I regret ever making friends with you” Paris yelled and everyone watched them with keen interest.

“I’m surprised they haven’t started pulling each other’s hair yet” Olivia laughed.
“Looks like they’re going to do that soon” Arusha smiled,he was holding her hand,he’s fond of holding her these days and she likes when he does that.
They’re both aware of each other’s feelings and holding hands is the way they can express it for now.

“I wonder the reason they’re yelling at each other though” Olivia said.
“Chandler asked me out first! How dare you go behind my back to date him” Jane screamed and started pulling Paris hair.
“Wow” Olivia smiled.
“They just answered your question” Arusha said to Olivia.
“Isn’t Chandler the dick that was head over heels with Jessica?”Olivia asked and Arusha nodded.
“And that was because he thought Jessica was Mr Ethan’s sibling” Arusha corrected.
“Yeah, he’s such a dick” Marl sighed and looked over at Jessica.

She looks like she was enjoying the drama between her two ex friends.
Arusha glanced at her also and smiled.
“I’m glad she stopped being friends with them” He said.
“And I’m glad she didn’t even fall into Chandler’s hands” Arusha said.

“He asked me out first!” Paris shouted and started pulling Jane hair also.
“I hate you!” Jane screamed.
They sent their laptops flying to the floor and the class monitor quickly called the security.
They were both pulled away few minutes later with blood dripping from their nostrils.

“Wow!” Olivia sighed.
“That was fun to watch” She
laughed.
“And to think the so called Chandler is even laughing” Arusha said,irritated by Chandler’s behavior.
“I told you he’s a dick” Olivia scoffed.
“He sure is” Arusha said.

“Ryan is planning to ask Jessica out” Arusha said.
“Oh..my, really?”Olivia smiled.
“Yeah,he said he can’t hold it any longer. Even the blind could tell they really love each other” Arusha said.
“I’m so happy for Jessica, Ryan’s such a nice guy and i like the fact that he’s bold enough to want to spill his feelings” Olivia said.
“I wish I’m that bold too”Arusha said.
“Huh?” Olivia asked.
“Nevermind” Arusha said.

“Arusha, there’s something i want to tell you” Olivia said.
“Ohh…what’s that?” Arusha asked.
“It’s not a big deal though,i just feel i shouldn’t hide it any longer..I’m going to tell you soon,i don’t think I’m ready to tell you now” Olivia said.
“I’m going to wait Olivia till whenever you’re ready”Arusha said and Olivia nodded.

“How’s Irish?” She asked, smiling.
“She should be fine,she’s not home at the moment” Arusha said.
“She’s at Mr Ethan’s then” Olivia said.
“No,she’s somewhere no one would ever thought she’ll be but i know she’s up to something and i hope she’ll scale through it” Arusha said.
“Uhh…i hope so too” Olivia said.

Ethan walked into the living room,all smiles.
He had spoken to Irish and hearing her voice after some days lifted his spirit and she had told him to be patient which means something good is coming.
He knew she would never leave him for Morgan without a reason and he’ll really be patient like she said.
“Oh my God, what happened to your forehead?” Mrs Harlow asked, getting to her feet.
Mr Harlow looked worried too.

“Ohh..this?” Ethan asked, rubbing the small bandaid on his forehead.
“Catherine did it” He said.
“What! Has she gone crazy again!” Mrs Harlow yelled.
“I guess so” Ethan said, looking thoughtful.
“I hope you got her arrested?” Mr Harlow asked.
“Nope! I guess she was really touched by my advice that she threw her purse in my face” Ethan laughed.
“Bitch!” Mrs Harlow swore at Catherine.
“But why are you smiling?” She asked suspiciously.
He has been in a rotten mood since Irish left.. or..

“Is this about Irish? Did you contacted her?” Mrs Harlow asked.
Ethan shook his butt in response and then laughed before walking to his room.
“It’s about her, i guess he contacted her. I wonder what Irish did to him and Arin to make them love her this much” Mrs Harlow sighed.

“You also can’t deny the fact that Irish has a natural charm, we both fell for her charm too” Mr Harlow said.
“Not anymore” Mrs Harlow frowned.
She can’t forgive anyone who makes her son sad, though she really likes Irish but she’s so pissed at her.

“I still don’t think Irish would do that” Mr Harlow said.
“But she did! ”
“She might have a reason though,she seems too nice to break Ethan’s heart”
“There you go again” Mrs Harlow groaned.
“Aren’t you going to the spa anymore?” He asked.
“I will, I’m waiting for Arin to be back,i need to take care of her before going” Mrs Harlow said.
“Don’t you think it’s time we employ another nanny?” She asked.
“Arin would never allow you to and i don’t think it’s necessary either”
“You’re also thinking Irish will be back right?”
Mr Harlow nodded.

“Well…i hope so too” Mrs Harlow said and her husband smiled.
He knew she still likes Irish and want her back.

“I’ll be leaving for Mexico tomorrow” Catherine said to Morgan and Irish focused her gaze on the TV.
“You’ll be spending how many days ?” Morgan asked.
“Two or more” Catherine said.

Irish noticed Catherine looked upset, does that means meeting with Ethan hadn’t gone well?
Of course it hadn’t,or she would have been excited and popping round the house by now.

“Are you going to Mexico for a business trip?” Irish decided to ask.
“To clear my head” Catherine said.
“Did anything happen?”
“Nothing you should know of” Catherine said.
“Ohh..okay,I’m sorry if I’m intruding” Irish said.
“Yes you are!” Catherine yelled before getting up and walking to her room.
“I guess the meeting with Ethan hadn’t gone well?” She asked Morgan who nodded.
“He ended up telling her to dress more decently” Morgan said and Irish nearly laughed.
Ethan can be savage at times.

“And she slammed her purse in his face before leaving his office”
“What! Why would she do that!” Irish almost yelled, looking pissed but she quickly got herself together.
“Do you still care about him?” Morgan asked.
“Care? Hell no, im just surprised Catherine could do that, i thought she really loved him” Irish said.
“She would have shot him if she had a gun with her” Morgan said.
“Uh..he must have really provoked her” Irish said.
“Of course,she even gave me the go ahead to kill him,she doesn’t care anymore” Morgan smiled.

“Ohh,she doesn’t know yet that I’m involved right?” Irish asked in a whisper.
“She doesn’t and she mustn’t” Morgan said and Irish nodded.
“She’s leaving for Mexico tomorrow,will you please invite our accomplices over so we can all discuss the plan” Irish said.
“Of course I’m going to invite them over tomorrow”Morgan said.
“I can’t wait” Irish smiled.
“You seem so interested in all these” Morgan said.
“That should tell you how much i hate Ethan now, i want him gone,he disgusts me..damn” She rolled her eyes and Morgan drew her close with a smile.

Irish got in bed,clad in her pajamas ready to sleep when her phone started ringing.
She picked it up and smiled.

“Black ass” She grinned happily into the phone.

……

___Next morning__

“I asked you to tell me what the hell you picked from the floor and gave to Irish,the last night you were here and you’re saying you can’t disclose that to me? Have you gone insane?” Catherine asked Maria who have her head bowed in front of her.
She was just returning and she couldn’t even believe Catherine was waiting for her in the living room already.

“Will you speak up!” Catherine yelled at her.
“I..I’m sorry ma’am, i can’t disclose that” Maria said, she had promised Irish not to tell anyone and she’s not going to!
After all Irish is her boss now and she should obey her by keeping to the promise.

“I’m not to disclose anything that transpired between my boss and i. I’m so sorry madam Catherine”Maria said.
“This is crazy!” Catherine shouted, getting on her feet.
“Go pack your things and leave my house now” She said to Maria who quickly got on her knees, pleading.
“Tell me what you gave to her or leave my house” Catherine said, threateningly.
“I..i ca.. can’t Madam Catherine, please” Maria said,her eyes already laced with tears.

“She gave me the necklace Morgan gifted me. It fell off my hands and she picked it up for me” Irish said, walking into the living room.
“Why then is she refusing to say that? What’s so hard in saying that?” Catherine asked,she was fully dressed,ready to leave for Mexico,her bag was packed already but she had waited for Maria, she really needed to confirm if it was truly the necklace.

“She’s only trying to respect me as her boss by not disclosing what happened between us. Get up Maria” Irish said and Maria rose to her feet.
“I’m glad you got to confirm it was really the necklace i gifted Irish” Morgan said.
“Whatever” Catherine said,staring suspiciously at Morgan.
She still has some explanations to do.

She glanced at her wrist watch.
“I’ll be leaving”
“Yeah,you shouldn’t miss your flight” Morgan said.
“Do you want me to come with you to the airport?” Morgan asked.
“You don’t have to” She said kissing Morgan on both cheeks.
“Bye” She said and Morgan followed her to the car while one of her escorts held her bag.

“How did she know about it?” Irish asked Maria.
“There’s a camera in the hallway” Maria said.
“Really?” Irish gasped, she never knew.
“Yes.. you didn’t know about it?”
“I didn’t” Irish said.
“You should be very careful ma’am, camera is installed in almost every part of this house” Maria said.

“Thanks Maria” Irish said,a bit shaken.
“How’s Lucas and Gemma?” She asked.
“They are doing great, Gemma said to greet you” Maria smiled.
“Ohh,you told her about me?” Irish asked with a smile and Maria nodded.

“I should go freshen up so I’ll get you your strawberry juice” Maria smiled.
“Quickly do so” Irish smiled and Maria walked away.

IN LOVE WITH THE BILLIONAIRE: Chapter 61 – The End

Irish was about to sit when a bodyguard approached her.
“Come to the garden now and don’t make it obvious you’re following me” He whispered and quickly walked away.
Irish blinked in confusion and wondered what was going on,she followed him anyway.

She met him waiting for her in the garden.
“Wh.. is anything wrong?” She asked.
“This is the only part of the house that there’s no camera, please I’d advise you not to drink any of the strawberry juice you’re served from now, they’re all poisoned. Catherine injected all the strawberry juice in the kitchen with a slow but efficient poison, it’ll kill your cells slowly till you end up dieing,i shouldn’t tell you this but Mr Ethan has been very nice to me, he asked me to protect you and that’s what I’m doing. Please be very careful, you’re not safe here.” The bodyguard said and left quickly.

Irish’s legs shook and cold sweat broke out of her forehead.
She was shocked Catherine could attempt to kill her despite how nice she has been to her.
She.. would have died with her baby if this bodyguard hadn’t come to her rescue.
She would have died with her baby if Ethan hadn’t once helped this bodyguard.

How can Catherine be so evil to poison her drinks.
She didn’t remember doing anything to wrong her and even if she had, killing her should never be an option.
Should she just leave this place already?
She’s not safe here like the bodyguard had said and he won’t be around to protect her all the time.
She already got the necklace..she should leave but she can’t!

There are so many things she needs to find out.
She really needs to see Morgan brought to book and not only Morgan but Catherine also.
She just attempted murdering her and her baby and she’s even involved in the plan to kill Morgan.
Then she must know about Morgans past deeds.
Who knows if Catherine is also involved in hurting and killing people with Morgan.

Irish sighed and started dragging her feet back into the house.
She’s still shaken by the piece of information.
What if she had taken the juice like she used to.. No.

The bodyguard hadn’t even given her the chance to thank him before leaving.
He saved her life.
His life is along the line if Catherine should find out what he did.

She really needs to be done with all these,so she can hand them over to the police.
It’s wearing her out already.

“Hey” Morgan said suddenly and she almost jumped.
“What? Did i startle you?”
“Not really” Irish said.
“What’s wrong? You are looking quite bothered” Morgan said.
“I’m fine” Irish said.
“You sure?” Morgan looked doubtful.
“I guess it’s just morning sickness.. Catherine left already?” She asked.
“Yes, will you be fine to meet our accomplices today? I can invite them over tomorrow” Morgan said.
“Uh..I’ll be very fine to meet them today,i am ready to.” Irish smiled.
“Okay,i should call them then” Morgan said.
“Great!” Irish said.
“I should take a little rest before meeting them” She said, stopping in front of her door.

“As you wish” Morgan smiled and kissed her cheeks before walking away.
She walked into her room and closed the door behind her.

What if Catherine have installed another camera in her room…she wouldn’t have known.

She grabbed her phone from the table and walked into the bathroom.
She needs to call Carl.
She almost got poisoned…what if Catherine is to poison her meal or water next?
She’s not safe here like the bodyguard had said!

“Carl”
“Irish what’s up?
“Carl,i almost got poisoned”
“What!” Catherine exclaimed. “How?”
“A bodyguard..told me Catherine injected every of my juice with a slow but efficient poison that’ll start by killing my cells and..”
“Stop” Carl sighed.
“Irish,you’re in great danger, you already got the necklace,i think you should pull out”Carl said.

He knows Ethan would never forgive him if anything happens to Irish.

“No, I’m not pulling out,until we’re done with all this” Irish said.
“What if the bodyguard had not told you that? You would have ended up gulping the juice and Mr Ethan would never forgive me if anything happens to you”
“I’m thankful the bodyguard had come to my rescue but i can’t pull out now,we started it,we should end it”
“It doesn’t matter, just leave that house Irene. Please” Carl said.
“Carl,i can’t leave just like that. Morgan will continue hurting people without anyone to bring him to book!”
“I’m sure Max would have gathered enough evidence to bring him to book” Carl assured her.

“No, if i should leave, he’ll succeed with his plan to kill Ethan and I’ll never forgive myself for it.” Irish said.
“Max is going to take actions before Morgan makes a move”
“We can’t be so sure. And I’m so sure there are some secrets waiting to be revealed, I’m yet to meet the so called accomplices,I’m yet to know what Morgan’s next move is, I’m yet to know so many things. I really need to stay” Irish said and Carl sighed.
“Carl,I’ll be fine and extra careful from now. I promise” Irish said.
“What if Catherine attempts to poison your meal next? She’s gonna make another move..a stronger one once she notices you’re not taking the juice any more”Carl said, worriedly.

“That’s the reason we should finish up before she notices”
“Iri..”
“Trust me,I’ll be fine Carl and extra careful. I’ll make sure i see to everything I’ll be eating in the house myself”
“I’m going to inform Max about it immediately and that bodyguard, can you get him to contact me?”Carl asked.
“I’m not sure, he looks like he wouldn’t like to get caught talking to me, so getting him to contact you will be a bit hard but I’ll know how to go about it, I’ll try”
“I really need to talk to him to keep protecting you, cause we can never tell Catherine’s next move is and did the bodyguard told you the reason he revealed Catherine’s evil act to you?”

“Ethan asked him to protect me” Irish said.
“Really?”
“Yeah..i guess Ethan once helped him so he couldn’t refuse when Ethan asked him to protect me” Irish said and smiled.
Ethan had saved her.
“Woah..seems Mr Ethan who knows nothing of the plan even helped us out. Well..his kindness did, it really pays to be kind”Carl said, he has always respected Ethan for his kind acts.

“Yes..if not for Ethan,i can’t even imagine what would have happened now” Irish sighed.
“Just try to get the bodyguard to contact me okay? Looks like we’ll be needing his help also”
“Okay C,and you won’t believe there’s a camera in almost every part of the house, Catherine saw the moment Maria handed the necklace to me and she confronted her this morning”

“Wow. Catherine is really watching you. It shows she doesn’t trust you a bit”
“I know she doesn’t trust me, Morgan told me that also but now that i know there’s camera in almost every part of the house,I’ll be very cautious”
“You should be please, we can’t afford getting caught”

“She left for Mexico today though”
“Really?”
“Yeah, and I’m going to meet our accomplices today”
“Great! But i really want you to be careful Irish, please”

“I’ll be careful trust me, gotta go now” Irish said, hearing the door of her room open.
“Bye”

She walked into her room and her heart skipped a beat when she saw Maria holding a glass cup of strawberry juice in a tray.
No one could have tell that juice is poisoned.
“Here is your juice ma’am” Maria smiled.
“Maria, starting now..i won’t be taking strawberry juice in this house anymore, go to the kitchen now,empty every strawberry juice you see in there into the sink” Irish said, knowing even if she avoids drinking it,any other person can consume it without knowing it’s poisoned.
“Wh..why? What’s going on ma’am?” Maria asked.
“Just do as i said Maria”
“Okay ma’am,I’ll do so now” Maria said and quickly went to carry out Irish’s order.
She knew something must have happened for Irish to order her to do that.

The cooks watched her as she emptied the packs of juice into the sink.

“Maria, what are you doing?” The head of the cooks asked.
“What my boss ordered me to do” Maria said.
“How could she order you to do this, they spent money to purchase the juice and she ordered you to waste them?”
“There’s a reason behind every action” Maria said.
“I still do not see the reason someone would waste all these”
“You should go question her yourself, you’ll get an answer”

“She has really gone proud since she was appointed as a personal maid” One of the cooks said and the others nodded in agreement.

“Maria, everything that has to do with what I’ll be eating in this house, I’ll be the one to handle it myself” Irish said.
“Ma’am did i do anything wrong? I’m so sorry if i wronged you” Maria pleaded.
“You didn’t do anything Maria, I’m just being careful”
“Careful?” Maria asked.
“Yeah…” Irish said not sure if she could tell Maria that she was almost poisoned.
She seems like someone she can trust and she hadn’t even broken her promise to her even when Catherine was at the verge of sacking her.
She had kept to her words! without minding the consequences.
Maria seems like a trustworthy person.

“Maria,those drinks i ordered you to dispose of were…” Irish paused with a sigh ” poisoned”
“What!” Maria screamed.
“Really?” She asked and Irish nodded.
“By Madam Catherine right?” Maria asked in a whisper.
“How did you know?” Irish asked.
“She’s obviously the only one capable of such evil act..what are you going to do now ma’am?” Maria asked worriedly.

“That’s why i want to be tending to whatever I’ll be eating myself” Irish said.
“Ohh…Now i understand but do not bother ma’am,I’m going to handle everything smoothly. I’m a very good cook and starting now,I’ll be the one to prepare your meals,stay in the kitchen till it’s done and serve it to you myself. Trust me,I’ll be very careful and i won’t allow anyone mess with it” Maria said and Irish was touched.
“Thank you so much Maria”She said.
“You shouldn’t thank me, I’m only doing my job as your personal maid. But..how did you know madam Catherine had the packs of juice poisoned?” Maria asked curiously.

“A..bodyguard told me”
“Really? Do you know his name? How does he look like?” Catherine asked, knowing the bodyguards are all loyal to Maria.
“No but he has jet-black hair and deep blue eyes, he’s tall and not so thin with a faint scar on his jaw “Irish described him.
“Ohh…that’s Blaine” Maria smiled and Irish noticed the faint blush on her cheeks .
“Uhh..You like him?” Irish asked.
“Huh?” Maria blinked.
“You like him” Irish teased and laughed when Maria turned away shyly.

___

“Boss, i think that lady might not be who she made you believe she is. She loves Mr Ethan so much to leave him,not to talk of wanting to be involved in the plan to hurt him.”
She might have an ulterior motive, you should not trust her” Javad said to Morgan over the phone.

“Javad, she hates Ethan already! She hates him so much now. She doesn’t have any ulterior motive,I’ve watched her since she arrived and didn’t notice any suspicious move from her,she only wants to get back at Ethan for hurting her. I trust her”
“But boss,i still think…
“Just shut up and start coming over with Gladys, you’ll see for yourself when you get here” Morgan said.
“Okay boss, we’ll be there soon. Does Madam Catherine knows about this?” Javad asked.
“She knows nothing about this and you dare not say anything to her okay?”
“Okay boss,i still think we shouldn’t trust Irish so easily” Javad insisted.

“Don’t get on my nerves Javad…..
“I’m sorry boss, we’ll start coming over immediately” Javad said and Morgan disconnected the call.

____

“Irish,they are here” Morgan said, walking into Irish’s room.
She was having a funny conversation with Maria and eating the cookies Maria had baked for her.
“Really? They are here” Irish said, getting on her feet.
“Yeah,you might be quite surprised though” Morgan warned .
“Ohh” Irish said and she couldn’t place a finger on why her heart was beating fast as she followed Morgan to the living room.

She quickly clicked on the sound recorder app on her phone.

They got to the living room and Irish saw Gladys and Javad.
“Ohh.. Ethansent you here?” She asked, surprised Morgan had allowed them in.
“No, these are our accomplices,the ones who’ll help our plan go smoothly, they’ve been working with me for so long. Javad and Gladys..meet Irish”Morgan smiled and Irish felt like her soul left her body.
Her knees went weak and she collapsed on the cold floor with her phone flying out of her hand.

“OMG are you okay?” Morgan rushed to her.
Javad gaze moved to her phone that had slid to his feet.
He almost kicked the phone away from his feet but stopped when his eyes caught the screen.

Damn it!

“Boss, this goddamn lady planned to record our conversation!” Javad said, picking up the phone.
“What!” Morgan asked, moving away from Irish who was still shocked to the bone.
He grabbed the phone from Javad and on glancing at the screen,he turned to Irish angrily.

“I told you we couldn’t trust her boss” Javad said.
“How dare you?” Morgan asked slowly, approaching Irish with a deadly glare.
The trust he had for her vanished immediately and his eyes turned cold.
“I..i i..” Irish stammered with tears in her eyes.
She wasn’t prepared for this,she had thought it’s going to go well like every of her plan.
Now,she’s exposed. She should have just left when Carl told her to.
“Get me my pistol and one of you should throw her in the back of my limo” Morgan said angrily.

Jessica smiled as Jane and Paris yelled at each other.

“You’re a bch!” Jane shouted.
“You are too! I regret ever making friends with you” Paris yelled and everyone watched them with keen interest.

“Chandler asked me out first! How dare you go behind my back to date him” Jane screamed and started pulling Paris hair.

“Wow” Olivia smiled.
“They just answered your question” Arusha said to Olivia.

“Isn’t Chandler the dk that was head over heels with Jessica?”Olivia asked and Arusha nodded.
“And that was because he thought Jessica was Mr Ethan’s sibling” Arusha corrected.
“Yeah, he’s such a dk” Marl sighed and looked over at Jessica.

She looks like she was enjoying the drama between her two ex friends.
Arusha glanced at her also and smiled.

“I’m glad she stopped being friends with them” He said.
“And I’m glad she didn’t even fall into Chandler’s hands” Arusha said.

“He asked me out first!” Paris shouted and started pulling Jane hair also.
“I hate you!” Jane screamed.
They sent their laptops flying to the floor and the class monitor quickly called the security.

They were both pulled away few minutes later with blood dripping from their nostrils.

“Wow!” Olivia sighed.
“That was fun to watch” She
laughed.
“And to think the so called Chandler is even laughing” Arusha said,irritated by Chandler’s behavior.
“I told you he’s a dk” Olivia scoffed.
“He sure is” Arusha said.

“Ryan is planning to ask Jessica out” Arusha said.
“Oh..my, really?”Olivia smiled.
“Yeah,he said he can’t hold it any longer. Even the blind could tell they really love each other” Arusha said.
“I’m so happy for Jessica, Ryan’s such a nice guy and i like the fact that he’s bold enough to want to spill his feelings” Olivia said.
“I wish I’m that bold too”Arusha said.
“Huh?” Olivia asked.
“Nevermind” Arusha said.

“Arusha, there’s something i want to tell you” Olivia said.
“Ohh…what’s that?” Arusha asked.

“It’s not a big deal though,i just feel i shouldn’t hide it any longer..I’m going to tell you soon,i don’t think I’m ready to tell you now” Olivia said.

“I’m going to wait Olivia till whenever you’re ready”Arusha said and Olivia nodded.

“How’s Irish?” She asked, smiling.
“She should be fine,she’s not home at the moment” Arusha said.
“She’s at Mr Ethan’s then” Olivia said.
“No,she’s somewhere no one would ever thought she’ll be but i know she’s up to something and i hope she’ll scale through it” Arusha said.
“Uhh…i hope so too” Olivia said.

He had spoken to Irish and hearing her voice after some days lifted his spirit and she had told him to be patient which means something good is coming.

He knew she would never leave him for Morgan without a reason and he’ll really be patient like she said.

“Oh my God, what happened to your forehead?” Mrs Harlow asked, getting to her feet.

“There you go again” Mrs Harlow groaned.
“Aren’t you going to the spa anymore?” He asked.
“I will, I’m waiting for Arin to be back,i need to take care of her before going” Mrs Harlow said.
“Don’t you think it’s time we employ another nanny?” She asked.
“Arin would never allow you to and i don’t think it’s necessary either”
“You’re also thinking Irish will be back right?”
Mr Harlow nodded.

“Well…i hope so too” Mrs Harlow said and her husband smiled.
He knew she still likes Irish and want her back.

“I’ll be leaving for Mexico tomorrow” Catherine said to Morgan and Irish focused her gaze on the TV.
“You’ll be spending how many days ?” Morgan asked.
“Two or more” Catherine said.

Irish noticed Catherine looked upset, does that means meeting with Ethan hadn’t gone well?
Of course it hadn’t,or she would have been excited and popping round the house by now.

“He ended up telling her to dress more decently” Morgan said and Irish nearly laughed.
Ethan can be savage at times.

“And she slammed her purse in his face before leaving his office”
“What! Why would she do that!” Irish almost yelled, looking pissed but she quickly got herself together.
“Do you still care about him?” Morgan asked.
“Care? Hell no, im just surprised Catherine could do that, i thought she really loved him” Irish said.
“She would have shot him if she had a gun with her” Morgan said.
“Uh..he must have really provoked her” Irish said.
“Of course,she even gave me the go ahead to kill him,she doesn’t care anymore” Morgan smiled.

“Ohh,she doesn’t know yet that I’m involved right?” Irish asked in a whisper.
“She doesn’t and she mustn’t” Morgan said and Irish nodded.
“She’s leaving for Mexico tomorrow,will you please invite our accomplices over so we can all discuss the plan” Irish said.

“Of course I’m going to invite them over tomorrow”Morgan said.
“I can’t wait” Irish smiled.
“You seem so interested in all these” Morgan said.

“That should tell you how much i hate Ethan now, i want him gone,he disgusts me..damn” She rolled her eyes and Morgan drew her close with a smile.

Irish got in bed,clad in her pajamas ready to sleep when her phone started ringing.
She picked it up and smiled.

“Black a$s” She grinned happily into the phone.

IN LOVE WITH THE BILLIONAIRE: Chapter 61 – The End

___Next morning__

“I asked you to tell me what the hell you picked from the floor and gave to Irish,the last night you were here and you’re saying you can’t disclose that to me?

Have you gone insane?” Catherine asked Maria who have her head bowed in front of her.
She was just returning and she couldn’t even believe Catherine was waiting for her in the living room already.

“Will you speak up!” Catherine yelled at her.
“I..I’m sorry ma’am, i can’t disclose that” Maria said, she had promised Irish not to tell anyone and she’s not going to!
After all Irish is her boss now and she should obey her by keeping to the promise.

“I’m not to disclose anything that transpired between my boss and i. I’m so sorry madam Catherine”Maria said.

“This is crazy!” Catherine shouted, getting on her feet.
“Go pack your things and leave my house now” She said to Maria who quickly got on her knees, pleading.

“Tell me what you gave to her or leave my house” Catherine said, threateningly.
“I..i ca.. can’t Madam Catherine, please” Maria said,her eyes already laced with tears.

“She gave me the necklace Morgan gifted me. It fell off my hands and she picked it up for me” Irish said, walking into the living room.

“Why then is she refusing to say that? What’s so hard in saying that?” Catherine asked,she was fully dressed,ready to leave for Mexico,her bag was packed already but she had waited for Maria, she really needed to confirm if it was truly the necklace.

“She’s only trying to respect me as her boss by not disclosing what happened between us. Get up Maria” Irish said and Maria rose to her feet.
“I’m glad you got to confirm it was really the necklace i gifted Irish” Morgan said.
“Whatever” Catherine said,staring suspiciously at Morgan.
She still has some explanations to do.

She glanced at her wrist watch.
“I’ll be leaving”
“Yeah,you shouldn’t miss your flight” Morgan said.
“Do you want me to come with you to the airport?” Morgan asked.
“You don’t have to” She said kssing Morgan on both cheeks.
“Bye” She said and Morgan followed her to the car while one of her escorts held her bag.

“How did she know about it?” Irish asked Maria.
“There’s a camera in the hallway” Maria said.
“Really?” Irish gasped, she never knew.
“Yes.. you didn’t know about it?”
“I didn’t” Irish said.
“You should be very careful ma’am, camera is installed in almost every part of this house” Maria said.

“Thanks Maria” Irish said,a bit shaken.
“How’s Lucas and Gemma?” She asked.
“They are doing great, Gemma said to greet you” Maria smiled.
“Ohh,you told her about me?” Irish asked with a smile and Maria nodded.

“I should go freshen up so I’ll get you your strawberry juice” Maria smiled.
“Quickly do so” Irish smiled and Maria walked away.

Irish was about to sit when a bodyguard approached her.
“Come to the garden now and don’t make it obvious you’re following me” He whispered and quickly walked away.
Irish blinked in confusion and wondered what was going on,she followed him anyway.

She met him waiting for her in the garden.
“Wh.. is anything wrong?” She asked.
“This is the only part of the house that there’s no camera, please I’d advise you not to drink any of the strawberry juice you’re served from now, they’re all poisoned. Catherine injected all the strawberry juice in the kitchen with a slow but efficient poison, it’ll kill your cells slowly till you end up dieing,i shouldn’t tell you this but Mr Ethan has been very nice to me, he asked me to protect you and that’s what I’m doing. Please be very careful, you’re not safe here.” The bodyguard said and left quickly.

Irish’s legs shook and cold sweat broke out of her forehead.

She was shocked Catherine could attempt to kill her despite how nice she has been to her.
She.. would have died with her baby if this bodyguard hadn’t come to her rescue.
She would have died with her baby if Ethan hadn’t once helped this bodyguard.

How can Catherine be so evil to poison her drinks.
She didn’t remember doing anything to wrong her and even if she had, killing her should never be an option.

Should she just leave this place already?
She’s not safe here like the bodyguard had said and he won’t be around to protect her all the time.
She already got the necklace..she should leave but she can’t!

There are so many things she needs to find out.
She really needs to see Morgan brought to book and not only Morgan but Catherine also.
She just attempted murdering her and her baby and she’s even involved in the plan to kill Morgan.

Then she must know about Morgans past deeds.
Who knows if Catherine is also involved in hurting and killing people with Morgan.

Irish sighed and started dragging her feet back into the house.
She’s still shaken by the piece of information.
What if she had taken the juice like she used to.. No.

The bodyguard hadn’t even given her the chance to thank him before leaving.
He saved her life.
His life is along the line if Catherine should find out what he did.

She really needs to be done with all these,so she can hand them over to the police.
It’s wearing her out already.

“Hey” Morgan said suddenly and she almost jumped.
“What? Did i startle you?”
“Not really” Irish said.
“What’s wrong? You are looking quite bothered” Morgan said.
“I’m fine” Irish said.
“You sure?” Morgan looked doubtful.
“I guess it’s just morning sickness.. Catherine left already?” She asked.
“Yes, will you be fine to meet our accomplices today? I can invite them over tomorrow” Morgan said.

“Uh..I’ll be very fine to meet them today,i am ready to.” Irish smiled.
“Okay,i should call them then” Morgan said.
“Great!” Irish said.
“I should take a little rest before meeting them” She said, stopping in front of her door.

“As you wish” Morgan smiled and kssed her cheeks before walking away.
She walked into her room and closed the door behind her.

What if Catherine have installed another camera in her room…she wouldn’t have known.

She grabbed her phone from the table and walked into the bathroom.
She needs to call Carl.
She almost got poisoned…what if Catherine is to poison her meal or water next?
She’s not safe here like the bodyguard had said!

“Carl”
“Irish what’s up?
“Carl,i almost got poisoned”
“What!” Catherine exclaimed. “How?”
“A bodyguard..told me Catherine injected every of my juice with a slow but efficient poison that’ll start by killing my cells and..”
“Stop” Carl sighed.
“Irish,you’re in great danger, you already got the necklace,i think you should pull out”Carl said.

He knows Ethan would never forgive him if anything happens to Irish.

“No, I’m not pulling out,until we’re done with all this” Irish said.
“What if the bodyguard had not told you that? You would have ended up gulping the juice and Mr Ethan would never forgive me if anything happens to you”
“I’m thankful the bodyguard had come to my rescue but i can’t pull out now,we started it,we should end it”
“It doesn’t matter, just leave that house Irene. Please” Carl said.
“Carl,i can’t leave just like that. Morgan will continue hurting people without anyone to bring him to book!”
“I’m sure Max would have gathered enough evidence to bring him to book” Carl assured her.

“No, if i should leave, he’ll succeed with his plan to kill Ethan and I’ll never forgive myself for it.” Irish said.
“Max is going to take actions before Morgan makes a move”
“We can’t be so sure. And I’m so sure there are some secrets waiting to be revealed, I’m yet to meet the so called accomplices,I’m yet to know what Morgan’s next move is, I’m yet to know so many things. I really need to stay” Irish said and Carl sighed.
“Carl,I’ll be fine and extra careful from now. I promise” Irish said.
“What if Catherine attempts to poison your meal next? She’s gonna make another move..a stronger one once she notices you’re not taking the juice any more”Carl said, worriedly.

“That’s the reason we should finish up before she notices”
“Iri..”
“Trust me,I’ll be fine Carl and extra careful. I’ll make sure i see to everything I’ll be eating in the house myself”
“I’m going to inform Max about it immediately and that bodyguard, can you get him to contact me?”Carl asked.
“I’m not sure, he looks like he wouldn’t like to get caught talking to me, so getting him to contact you will be a bit hard but I’ll know how to go about it, I’ll try”
“I really need to talk to him to keep protecting you, cause we can never tell Catherine’s next move is and did the bodyguard told you the reason he revealed Catherine’s evil act to you?”

“Ethan asked him to protect me” Irish said.
“Really?”
“Yeah..i guess Ethan once helped him so he couldn’t refuse when Ethan asked him to protect me” Irish said and smiled.
Ethan had saved her.
“Woah..seems Mr Ethan who knows nothing of the plan even helped us out. Well..his kindness did, it really pays to be kind”Carl said, he has always respected Ethan for his kind acts.

“Yes..if not for Ethan,i can’t even imagine what would have happened now” Irish sighed.
“Just try to get the bodyguard to contact me okay? Looks like we’ll be needing his help also”
“Okay C,and you won’t believe there’s a camera in almost every part of the house, Catherine saw the moment Maria handed the necklace to me and she confronted her this morning”

“Wow. Catherine is really watching you. It shows she doesn’t trust you a bit”
“I know she doesn’t trust me, Morgan told me that also but now that i know there’s camera in almost every part of the house,I’ll be very cautious”
“You should be please, we can’t afford getting caught”

“She left for Mexico today though”
“Really?”
“Yeah, and I’m going to meet our accomplices today”
“Great! But i really want you to be careful Irish, please”

“I’ll be careful trust me, gotta go now” Irish said, hearing the door of her room open.
“Bye”

She walked into her room and her heart skipped a beat when she saw Maria holding a glass cup of strawberry juice in a tray.
No one could have tell that juice is poisoned.
“Here is your juice ma’am” Maria smiled.
“Maria, starting now..i won’t be taking strawberry juice in this house anymore, go to the kitchen now,empty every strawberry juice you see in there into the sink” Irish said, knowing even if she avoids drinking it,any other person can consume it without knowing it’s poisoned.
“Wh..why? What’s going on ma’am?” Maria asked.
“Just do as i said Maria”
“Okay ma’am,I’ll do so now” Maria said and quickly went to carry out Irish’s order.
She knew something must have happened for Irish to order her to do that.

The cooks watched her as she emptied the packs of juice into the sink.

“Maria, what are you doing?” The head of the cooks asked.
“What my boss ordered me to do” Maria said.
“How could she order you to do this, they spent money to purchase the juice and she ordered you to waste them?”
“There’s a reason behind every action” Maria said.
“I still do not see the reason someone would waste all these”
“You should go question her yourself, you’ll get an answer”

“She has really gone proud since she was appointed as a personal maid” One of the cooks said and the others nodded in agreement.

“Maria, everything that has to do with what I’ll be eating in this house, I’ll be the one to handle it myself” Irish said.
“Ma’am did i do anything wrong? I’m so sorry if i wronged you” Maria pleaded.

“You didn’t do anything Maria, I’m just being careful”
“Careful?” Maria asked.
“Yeah…” Irish said not sure if she could tell Maria that she was almost poisoned.
She seems like someone she can trust and she hadn’t even broken her promise to her even when Catherine was at the verge of sacking her.

She had kept to her words! without minding the consequences.
Maria seems like a trustworthy person.

“Maria,those drinks i ordered you to dispose of were…” Irish paused with a sigh ” poisoned”
“What!” Maria screamed.
“Really?” She asked and Irish nodded.
“By Madam Catherine right?” Maria asked in a whisper.
“How did you know?” Irish asked.
“She’s obviously the only one capable of such evil act..what are you going to do now ma’am?” Maria asked worriedly.

“That’s why i want to be tending to whatever I’ll be eating myself” Irish said.
“Ohh…Now i understand but do not bother ma’am,I’m going to handle everything smoothly. I’m a very good cook and starting now,I’ll be the one to prepare your meals,stay in the kitchen till it’s done and serve it to you myself. Trust me,I’ll be very careful and i won’t allow anyone mess with it” Maria said and Irish was touched.
“Thank you so much Maria”She said.
“You shouldn’t thank me, I’m only doing my job as your personal maid. But..how did you know madam Catherine had the packs of juice poisoned?” Maria asked curiously.

“A..bodyguard told me”
“Really? Do you know his name? How does he look like?” Catherine asked, knowing the bodyguards are all loyal to Maria.
“No but he has jet-black hair and deep blue eyes, he’s tall and not so thin with a faint scar on his jaw “Irish described him.
“Ohh…that’s Blaine” Maria smiled and Irish noticed the faint blush on her cheeks .
“Uhh..You like him?” Irish asked.
“Huh?” Maria blinked.
“You like him” Irish teased and laughed when Maria turned away shyly.

“Boss, i think that lady might not be who she made you believe she is. She loves Mr Ethan so much to leave him,not to talk of wanting to be involved in the plan to hurt him.”
She might have an ulterior motive, you should not trust her” Javad said to Morgan over the phone.

“Javad, she hates Ethan already! She hates him so much now. She doesn’t have any ulterior motive,I’ve watched her since she arrived and didn’t notice any suspicious move from her,she only wants to get back at Ethan for hurting her. I trust her”
“But boss,i still think…
“Just shut up and start coming over with Gladys, you’ll see for yourself when you get here” Morgan said.
“Okay boss, we’ll be there soon. Does Madam Catherine knows about this?” Javad asked.
“She knows nothing about this and you dare not say anything to her okay?”
“Okay boss,i still think we shouldn’t trust Irish so easily” Javad insisted.

“Don’t get on my nerves Javad…..
“I’m sorry boss, we’ll start coming over immediately” Javad said and Morgan disconnected the call.

“Irish,they are here” Morgan said, walking into Irish’s room.
She was having a funny conversation with Maria and eating the cookies Maria had baked for her.
“Really? They are here” Irish said, getting on her feet.
“Yeah,you might be quite surprised though” Morgan warned .
“Ohh” Irish said and she couldn’t place a finger on why her heart was beating fast as she followed Morgan to the living room.

She quickly clicked on the sound recorder app on her phone.

They got to the living room and Irish saw Gladys and Javad.
“Ohh.. Ethansent you here?” She asked, surprised Morgan had allowed them in.
“No, these are our accomplices,the ones who’ll help our plan go smoothly, they’ve been working with me for so long. Javad and Gladys..meet Irish”Morgan smiled and Irish felt like her soul left her body.
Her knees went weak and she collapsed on the cold floor with her phone flying out of her hand.

“OMG are you okay?” Morgan rushed to her.
Javad gaze moved to her phone that had slid to his feet.
He almost kicked the phone away from his feet but stopped when his eyes caught the screen.

Dmn it!

“Boss, this goddamn lady planned to record our conversation!” Javad said, picking up the phone.
“What!” Morgan asked, moving away from Irish who was still shocked to the bone.
He grabbed the phone from Javad and on glancing at the screen,he turned to Irish angrily.

“I told you we couldn’t trust her boss” Javad said.
“How dare you?” Morgan asked slowly, approaching Irish with a deadly glare.
The trust he had for her vanished immediately and his eyes turned cold.
“I..i i..” Irish stammered with tears in her eyes.
She wasn’t prepared for this,she had thought it’s going to go well like every of her plan.
Now,she’s exposed. She should have just left when Carl told her to.

“Get me my pistol and one of you should throw her in the back of my limo” Morgan said angrily.
