Celine curled her lips in a supercilious smile.
“What do you mean? You had the guts to call me that. Hmm….it seems you have no idea that I'm far wealthier than anyone on this planet.” Celine confessed, she couldn't continue eating, she was so disgusted at his actions.
“So how do you explain being at my dad's table? You low-life bitch.” Erickson rasped, folding his arms on his chest. He had the sentiment of sending a dirty slap across her face but he didn't instead he held his hands back in anger.
Celine moved her gaze to him, she tilts her head with a furrowed brow.
“He is your father? Henry is?” Celine questioned. Erickson raked her in disdain. He slams his palm against each other, clapping widely.
Erickson offered an option.
“Nice job. The other plan is to pretend you don't know my family, right? You are sleeping around with Henry for his money, right? How about I offer you a million and you get your filthy face away and find a better job?”
He darts his crudely insulting stare at her.
Celine gasps. “How dare you? Do you know who I am? You are yearning to see my other side, Mister. I'm only keeping my composure because there is a misunderstanding.”
“Oh yeah. I know who you are. A liar, a cheat, a harlot, and a gold digger.” Erickson replied.
Celine gnashed her teeth, she runs her hand through her hair. “You are insane,” she commented with disapproval gleaming in her eyes.
Erickson moved his pink thin lips to utter another insult but got interrupted by his dad.
“Erick, what's going on here?” Henry questioned, he could hear their argument from the restroom and he only asked to hear it from his son.
They were mute, glaring at each other.
“You can keep it to yourself. No one cares. I brought this young lady here for some introduction because you are the only one that trusts me.” Henry paused, licking his dried lips.
“She's our maid.” Henry introduced pointing at Celine.
“What?” Erickson and Celine chorused. Celine wasn't expecting that horrible introduction. The Williams heir is introduced as a maid who is mediocre.
Erickson veered around. “You are a disgrace, father.” he stormed out of the restaurant with rage.
Henry became uneasy, he feigned a smile.
“Im used to that. Hmm…you can start your work at my place today. Here's the address” He giggled, stretching a card to her. Celine balled her hand and grimaces at him, she refused to have the card. Henry became embarrassed getting a negative expression from a young lady. He grabbed her wrist, forcefully opens her clenched fist, and puts the card in her hand.
“Really? Your sons lack manners! He called me names because I accepted to have breakfast with you. Gosh! Thanks, you ruined my day” Celine complained, she slammed her fist on the table before she ran out.
She wasn't expecting any interruption on her way as she pursed her lips, walking like a robot.
“Celine!” Emily called, she hid behind the restaurant expecting Helen's arrival. Since she has the chance, she could buy more time for Helen.
Celine turned around, her frown transformed when her eyes fell on her childhood friend, Emily. “Emily!” She screamed out of joy stretching her arms in the air.
Emily had a flushed face. She was unhappy to see Celine smile. “This murderer has the gut to be happy after eliminating my Jones.”
Emily rolled her eyes, giving a huffy sigh. She walked up to Celine and embraces her.
“Im so sorry. It's been a long day and I forgot about you or Jones.” Celine said, she became sympathetic.
“So how's Jones?” Celine said. She has never been concerned about that playboy. Emily disengaged from the hug, she jerked her head backward as a bee stung her by the head. “Hmm…she's good at acting. She had a straight face after killing my joy” Emily mumbled, she felt like strangling Celine at a spot but she needs to give painful vengeance before eliminating her.
“He's dead,” Emily confessed with her eyes fixed on Celine's facial expression which became sore.
“Oh no, this is intense. We need to report this to the police before these men come after us.” Celine advised with her hand positioned on her shoulder, Emily frowns, she pushes her hand off her shoulder.
“What's wrong Emily? I hope you are not blaming me for his death. I wanted to help but my mother was bedridden, I was emotionally down that my mind fled Jones.”
“No, it's fine. You tried your best.”
Emily responded.
“What do we do? It was his time to die.” Celine remarked walking away.
Emily became disgusted as she heard that statement. She clenched her fists regretting the first day she set her eyes on her. She uttered profanity to the day she became friends with Celine. However, losing the only person she called family made her bite her lips. She had only Jones and Celine but now she has no one, Celine is more like a death to her.
A smile crept on Emily's face.
“Where are you heading?” she loosened her tightened fist. It's difficult to endure her presence but nothing sounded better to her than vengeance.
“The hospital. Where else? My only family is in there, I can't keep my mind off her and I don't wish to lose her.” Celine replied walking away.
“Her only family?” Emily crept smile spreads. She rubs her hands against each other and a chuckle erupted. Celine didn't hear that chuckle because she was farther from Emily beside a busy road to catch a cab.
Emily smirks, she understood what to eliminate first before Celine. Emily drove her Mercedes Benz towards Celine, she halts the car.
“Come hop in my car.”
“Okay….” Celine heeds her gesture. Emily became happy all of a sudden and eager to know more about Bianca's medical situation.
“So sad. Those men offered you this car right?” Celine questioned and Emily nods in approval.
“They paid for Jones's life. What about his family members? Did you inform anyone about his demise?” Celine questioned.
“Will you keep shut? I'm fed up with your pretense. Will you stop talking about Jones? Will you stop reminding me of the past?” Emily bolted, she almost hit an oncoming vehicle while erupting like a volcano.
