MENDING HIS BROKEN HEART : CHAPTER 71 – 90
Chapter 87
Quinn laughed and Elena knew that was a sincere laugh. She was happy that, at least her sister was surrounded with caring and crazy friends who would make her laugh all the time. She was surprised when Quinn stood up and came to sit beside her.
“Can I see your left hand?” She asked.
“Um, okay?” Elena answered, waiting to see what Quinn was up to.
Quinn pulled her pajamas away and looked at something then smiled. Her instinct has never been wrong, this was her sister, sitting right here, before her. What’s hurting her is that, her sister is bearing another name and having another look. But, her joy was that, she knew her sister so well, there must be a reason why she decided to do this. Damien was right, she was actually saved by someone.
“Can we talk? Outside? Alone?” Quinn asked.
Elena was hesitant. The way Quinn was behaving was giving her goosebumps. She sighed and stood up, Quinn held her hand and led her outside the mansion where no one would see orhear them.
“Okay, Missy, start talking.” Quinn said.
“Huh?” Elena was confused.
“What’s with the new look, red hair and stuff?” Quinn asked.
“I don’t understand what you’re talking about.” She said.
“Stop it! You suck at lying, Noel.” Quinn said and Elena gasped with widened eyes. She touched her mask to see if it was still on.
“Don’t worry, your ‘whatever’ you put on your face is still intact. Now, tell me everything.” Quinn said.
“You… You actually recognize me?” Elena asked, tears welling up in her eyes.
“I had my doubts but there was something I did to you that gave you a scar on your left hand.” Quinn said.
“How?” Elena asked.
“Remember the day you came back from school exhausted, removed your clothes with only your singlet on then plopped down on the couch? Well, I mistakenly injured you with a blade while struggling to untangle the ponytail in my hair.” Quinn said.
“That injury left a scar? How come I never noticed?” She asked.
“Because, you were careless?” Quinn teased.
Elena hugged her as tears rolled down her cheeks. “Nobody has been able to recognize me, not even Gray, mum, Austin or Scarlet, but you did.” She sniffed.
“I missed you so much, Noel. You have no idea what I went through.” Quinn said, shedding her own tears.
“I miss you all too.”
“Why didn’t come and see us? What’s going on?” Quinn asked.
“I will explain everything to you at the right time. All I can tell you is that I’m on a mission for revenge, I want to get back at the person who almost klled me. Don’t tell anyone about this okay?” Elena said.
“I’m curious but since, you’ll explain later, no problem. I won’t tell anyone.” Quinn said.
“Pinky promise?”
“Oh my gosh! You haven’t changed at all. Fine, pinky promise!” Quinn said and they laughed.
They hugged one more time before entering the house. Quinn was overjoyed but did her best to hide it. She couldn’t believe that her sister was alive! She would be able to eat very well now.
When they entered, Gray was coming down from the stairs. He was wearing a black jean trouser and sweater. His wet hair pasted on his forehead, giving him the sxy and bad boy look. Elena didn’t know when she started drooling, she was controlling herself from jumping on him and hugging him tight.
“If you’re done drooling, you can tell me.” Gray said and she blushed then hid her flushed face. He winked and went to the dining room.
“Does he know?” Quinn whispered.
“No, and it hurts like h’ll.” Elena said.
“Just hurry up with whatever plans you have, because Camille is trying to take him away from you. She is already coming to the Gerald’s mansion, claiming that she wants to marry Gray.” Quinn said and headed for the dining room too.
Elena blinked. “Marry my husband? Oh! She is so going down.” Elena muttered.
“Food is ready! Everyone, to the dining room!” Lia announced and Miguel came out with the rest. They all headed for the dining table. While they were eating, Gray’s eyes were on Elena the whole time, to see if she eats like Noel but unfortunately, she doesn’t. He sighed and continued with his food.
After dinner, Elena thanked them and headed home.

She entered the house and Lucas came to meet her.
“You spent almost 2 hours there.” Lucas whined.
“Sorry, I didn’t want to miss Lia’s cooking.” She said and Lucas laughed.
“No problem, I understand. Let’s go to the room, I have done the research.” He said.
“That’s why I love you, you’re dependable and trustworthy.” She said and ran upstairs.
Even though he knew the kind of love she was talking about, he couldn’t help but blush and smile widely. He followed her and they arrived in his room, where they met Annabella.
“Welcome back, sissy.” She said and smiled.
Elena smiled too and sat down beside Lucas infront of the computer.
“So, I did a research on Julie first. She is a Korean American. Her American name is Julie, while her Korean name is Eun Soo. She is 22 years old and was working with Camille. But, I couldn’t see any record about her from last year. So, I checked on Eun Soo and saw a record about her from last year. It’s totally confusing because she is same person.” Lucas said.
“Levi told me that, Camille klled Julie and Teresa before klling me which means that, Julie was able to survive then went to stay in Korea. But I think she is back, because Levi told me that, Camille was always complaining of seeing Julie in some places.” Elena said.
“Which means that, Julie is back for revenge as well.” Annabella said.
“Exactly. What about Silvia?”
“Silvia Henry, she is 24 years old and worked in Gray’s office. She didn’t get any job after she stopped working there, so she moved to Miami but returned this year.” Lucas said.
“Levi also said that, Silvia is working for Camille now which he believes isn’t with a free mind. He said that she was always talking about Teresa’s death, meaning that, Silvia is also planning on avenging Teresa’s death, so she is keeping Camille close and waiting for the right time to attack.” Elena said.
“Woah! This bitçh is really popular for her misdeeds.” Anabella laughed.
“And Chris Timon, he is 25 years old. He isn’t employed for now. I did another hacking stuff and saw photos of him and Camille being affectionate, I was able to save some of them. Camille paid him off so he could leave the child. In a journal, he wrote ‘I will return and take back what rightfully belongs to me. If she doesn’t love me anymore, she should at least give me my child.'” Lucas explained.
“Since, Chris wrote that, then he is obviously planning on taking the boy back. I think it’s high time he returns to claim what rightfully belongs to him.” Elena said.
“I think so, too.” Lucas said.
“I need to meet with Julie and Silvia soon. Were you able to get their location?” She asked.
“Yes boss.” He teased and she laughed.
“Why is Annabella quiet?” Elena asked and they turned and saw what she was doing. “Who is that for?” Elena asked.
“I am wrapping a very pleasant gift for Camille. She is going to love it sooo much.” Anabella said with a mischievous grin on her face.
“Will she survive this?” Elena asked.
“Of course she will. Thank God the powder itself is red, so the chilli powder in it won’t be visible. It’s the hottest and most painful chilli powder I could find,” She said and Elena gasped. “Don’t worry, I am not that wicked, she just won’t be able to use her eyes for a few days.” Annabella laughed.
“So, how are you going to deliver it?” Lucas asked.
“It will be a gift from Mr anonymous. Proud and sassy monkeys like her won’t be able to resist the latest brand of makeups. Besides, she would want to use it and please Gray.” Annabella said.
“You’re smart and mischievous.” Elena laughed.
“I know,” She said and stood up. “Let me get this delivered to her.” She said and left the room.
“Please, I need you to send an email to Flora Shay. Tell her to meet me in the company tomorrow, I need to teach her a lesson for joining hands with Camille to drug me.” Elena said.
“I wish I’ll be there to watch the whole drama.” Lucas said.
“I’ll secretly take a video. And, you know Annabella, I’m sure there is a video taking chip in that makeup kit.” Elena said and they laughed.

THE NEXT DAY
Flora called Camille that she was about leaving for the office, so Camille sent the drink which was already drugged to her, through Levi.
Levi returned home and saw Camille holding a very beautiful package.
“What is this?” He asked.
“I don’t know. It was delivered to me. I saw something written saying, from your secret admirer, I will reveal myself to you soon.” Camille read and Levi almost laughed.
How can a d’vil have a secret admirer? “Open and check what’s inside.” He said.
“This could be Chris trying to trick me.” She said.
“Open and check first.” He said.
Camille reluctantly unwrapped it and her eyes popped. “Wow! It’s the latest make up brand! This isn’t Chris! He can’t afford something like this! Wow! God bless this secret admirer of mine. I’m sure Gray won’t be able to resist me when I apply this.” She squealed.
Levi was surprised, this looked surreal. What!
Camille kept dancing around with the make up. “Let me go and freshen up, I will apply it to Gray’s office today, and also get the chance to see that miserable Elena embarrass herself.” She said and ran upstairs.
“This is not going to end well.” Levi said and sat down.
“Why is she so happy today?” Zara, who had tucked the baby in to sleep came downstairs.
“Someone bought her the latest brand of make up.” Levi said.
“Oh!” Zara said and sat down too.
Few minutes later, they heard Camille scream and ran upstairs to her room. Opening her room door, they saw her struggling to move.
“My eyes are on fire!” She cried.
They raised her up and made her sit on the bed. Her face was already red and her eyes couldn’t open.
“What happened?” Levi asked.
“I don’t know, I just applied the makeup and it was like my face is buried in chillli powder.” She cried.
Levi and Zara exchanged glances and laughed silently.
She screamed again. “My eyes! Oh no! I feel like I’m in fire! I don’t want to get blind!”

GRAY’S OFFICE
Flora knelt before Elena, pleading with the most saddest face and tears in her eyes.
Elena scoffed, she is such a good actress! Gray just sat down, watching to see if Elena would forgive her.
“Flora, stand up.” Elena said.
“No! I’m not going to stand up until you forgive me. I’m sorry, I’m sincerely sorry.” Flora said.
“Okay, I’ve heard you and I have forgiven you. You can stand up now.” Elena said.
“Thank you so much!” She stood up. “I bought a drink for you as a symbol of my apology. Please, have it.” Flora said and smiled.
Elena smirked and stood up. She adjusted her suit and catwalked to the door. She closed the door, locked it and took the keys then walked back to her seat. Gray didn’t want to talk, he was just observing to see what would happen next.
Elena collected the drink from Flora and opened it then stretched it out to her.
“Drink it!” She ordered and Flora gasped.
“Huh?” Flora was shocked as her heart started bea..ting fast against her ribcage.
“I’m sure that you aren’t de.af! I will say this for the last time, drink it!”
