Chapter 134:
“Gabriel Hills?”Grace stared at him.
“Yes, our old friend, he just got home,” Ramone explained. Grace turned to her father and saw him glaring at Gabriel with angry eyes.
“Ethan” She tapped him.
“Why are you staring at him that way?”She asked him, Mr. Ethan shook his head.
“It's already late; I should be on my way” " he uttered, tapping Grace's shoulders. “Hopefully, Lucas gets well soon,” he added and walked off.
Grace watched him leave and wondered what was going on, that was his exact reaction when Ramone arrived and now Gabriel. She pondered on what Ramone told her some days back about how they met Ethan at the bar after Victor's wife passed away in the accident and how they became these four friends that-
“Grace-
Gabriel interrupted her thoughts, She jerked up immediately and glared at him.
“I hope Lucas gets well; we should also be on our way,” He told Grace; she nodded and looked away. They left, and Sarah sat up.
“I should probably head out too; Jason will soon close the bar” " she uttered.
“It's okay; I'll take you to the mansion before coming back here,” She told her. Sarah stared at her, surprised, before shrugging her shoulders and relaxing back on the chair.

Before Grace took Sarah home last night, she enlightened her a little about the first thing she had to do. Sarah was excited about working with Micheal and couldn't wait to get to know him.
Later that morning when Sarah arrived at the bar, she met Micheal sitting alone and walked over to him
“Good morning, you look very sad and-hmm, well, I can't quite figure that out”, Sarah uttered and sat down with him.
“What do you want?”Micheal asked.
“I don't know, maybe I could help with something that is bothering you”, Sarah uttered; Micheal chuckled and stood up to go; he turned, came back and sat with her.
“Sarah-you do know that I killed your dad, right? I'm sure you are not eighteen and stupid; you've done your digging, right?” Micheal asked her with a grin.
Sarah felt a stab in her heart but she remembered what Sarah told her about Micheal's attempt to get to her.
“Yeah, I remember clearly. I was 17 then, and you, Micheal Hudson, will end just like my father did; I'm suddenly more interested in you than that twin brother of yours " she snapped and excused herself. Micheal stared at her as she walked away; he admired her boldness.

Kelsey paced up and down in her office, Grace was just staring at her and suddenly got angry.
“Can you just sit down for a while? I'm also thinking, besides, does the girl have my trust?”, She told Kelsey.
“well we need that shareholder registry immediately, I already started preparing and that's the only one remaining-
“I know Kelsey, we are working on it, we will get it,” Grace assured her.
“I wish that could be fast,” Kelsey muttered.

Dr. Richardson stood in front of Micheal and Mr. Victor trembling.
“you are so slow-witted and weak; how couldn't you carry out a job as simple as that in your hospital?”Micheal stated.
“I tried, but Grace was there on time, I had to go, but I promise; she didn't see me”, Dr Richardson promised; Micheal chuckled.
“She's always in the way, always, and now she is staying away from me”, Micheal uttered; Mr. Victor was just staring at him.
“Did he order him to kill Lucas? why?” Mr. Victor asked and Micheal shrugged his shoulders.
“Just saving him the pain” Micheal snapped and told the doctor to leave.
Later in the afternoon, Grace came over to the Rosé's and Sarah told her she was pretty sure she got Micheal wondering.
“Good, he likes it when people are ready to kill, so I hope you are ready. Don't forget to be careful and smart; he won't hesitate to kill you if he finds out”, Grace advised, and Sarah nodded in agreement.
Just like Grace presumed, Micheal tells Jason he wants to see Sarah tonight. Sarah got ready from the hospital, and Grace taught her how to load a gun and handed it over to her.
“Don't shoot, it's just to be on the safe side, if it's something Jason can handle you let him handle it, once he allows you to get close to him he has a habit of taking people to his house, and if he does take you, get closer Mr Victor Hudson”
Grace told her, and she nodded; she patted her shoulders and left the Rosé's.

Later that night at the bar, Micheal smiled when Sarah stepped into the bar, she went over and greeted Jason leaving a note from Grace to him and went back to Micheal
“heard you sent for me?”She uttered and Micheal smiled and leaned forward.
“well yea it's about the other night when I told you I killed Zack, I wanted to tell you that it wasn't me, Lucas ordered-
“you are not on good terms with your brother, Mr. Micheal, so what are you saying?”She asked him, staring into his eyes.
“Okay, let's put it this way: you will come over to the house tomorrow; I will explain better and also help you take Lucas down”, Micheal told her, and she smiled.
“He is planning to sue you, I hope you're ready, huh?” She asked and Micheal winked at her.
“you don't know half of it do you?” He muttered.

Lucas finally woke up the next day and Grace felt happy, she was still celebrating when Kelsey arrived with Emily
“Why is your face that way, Lucas is awake”
She announced to her.
“I know, Grace, it's obvious he is awake; I can see his eyes”, Kelsey snapped.
“what's going on?”She asked her.
“Well, I think Lucas's baby mamma has served him for denial of child support and is insisting it is taken care of right away”, Emily explained.
“About that, I'm sorry I didn't inform you earlier, I had a little discussion with Lucas's baby mamma”, Grace told them.
