Chapter 136: On The Loose
The next morning at the hospital, Grace showed Lucas the footage
“hell I can't figure them out, and I'm officially not having any problem with anybody except family matters of cause, but Grace, once I get discharged I need to start acting-
“what happened when you tried to act Lucas? Assassination attempt, we can't take any risk, you need to be alive and strong to win back your company” Grace opposed and looked away,
Lucas knew he could not convince her he had to do things without letting her know like making sure he ends Micheal before he ends him because for all Lucas cared, Micheal had a hand in his attempted elimination and robbery at the mansion.

Early the next morning, Sarah went to the Rosé's just in time before customers started arriving. She was surprised to see a car parked outside, and she was very sure it didn't belong to Grace. She stepped into the bar and tiptoed towards the money room and placed her ears on the door; surprised at what she heard, she tried placing her ears again. When the door knob turned, she quickly pretended to be busy on her phone.
The door opened and Jason stepped out
“Sarah, you are here so early; any news for me?”He asked her, and Sarah shook her head. Two men came out from the money room and shook hands with Jason before leaving.
“Who are those people?”She asked and Jason looked at her.
“just clients-
“What type of clients?”She asked again, and Jason smiled, pointing at all the tables.
“get a towel; let's fix this place and get ready for the day”, He uttered.

Mr. Victor pushed Gabriel with force, he was furious seeing him in the house.
“I don't want you in my house, Gabriel; I need you to leave!”Mr. Victor yelled.
“Why?, because I'm so adamant on clearing the dirty air-
Mr Victor grabbed his neck and dragged him close to him
“you clear any air and I won't hesitate to kill you, don't try me Gabriel” Mr. Victor warned
Ramone stood on one side, clenching his teeth together. Mr Victor pushed Gabriel backwards, and he staggered and almost injured himself, staring sternly at both Ramone and Gabriel; he shook his head and went upstairs.

Sarah arrived at the hospital later in the evening, brought out the envelope, and handed it to Grace. Grace was so happy and excited about this that she almost hugged Sarah.
“Are you sure Jason is an accomplice, or is he a betrayer?”Sarah suddenly asked, Lucas stared at her.
“why'd you ask?” He asked her; Sarah stared at them for some time and chuckled.
“It's nothing. Forget I told you that, She told her; Grace stared at her.
“spill it!” She uttered. Sarah stared at her for some time before telling them what she overheard in the money room.

Grace was preparing to go to the city chambers when she received a call from Dr. Richardson telling her she needed to come.
Grace arrived and met Dr. Richardson trembling with fear written all over his face
“what's all this?” Grace snapped, feeling less concerned about everything; Dr. Richardson held Grace's hands.
“Lucas's brother has my wife, and I'm fed up with doing things for him; he is pushing me too far, Grace, Please help me”, Dr Richardson pleaded.
“by making you do things you mean against Lucas?”She asked, and Dr. Richardson nodded; Grace smirked and stared at him.
“so it was you the last time at your hospital, and also yesterday, I'm guessing” " she added and chuckled.
“Dr. Richardson I must say that is very exciting” She uttered and left the hospital,
dr. Richardson felt bad with fear, he grabbed his keys and drove straight to Dr. Cooper's hospital.
After the fight Gabriel had with Mr. Victor, he felt rage engulfing him, the same rage he felt years back all came back inside of him, and all he wanted at this point was to get rid of Mr. Victor; Ramone tried to calm him down and hopefully help him get used to being around Micheal.
“your brother has gotten on my last nerves. I'm not going to let this slide”, Gabriel told Ramone and stormed out of the house.
Scared, Ramone took a cab to Mr. Ethan's house, he was in a happy mood as he just received money from Grace.
“ah Ramone, come inside, my daughter has sent you your money”, Mr Ethan uttered; Ramone chuckled and stared at him.
“your daughter? Seriously Ethan, is this it? Is this the whole reason why you don't want to come clean about certain things-
Ramone took a deep breath he knew Ethan to be just as violent as Victor, so he grabbed his own money
“I came to inform you that Gabriel is on a violent loose, he might as well murder anybody that tries to stop him”, Ramone informed Ethan and left the house.

Micheal took Sarah to see Lexi later that day, Lexi just having a good time with a drunk from the club when Micheal knocked, She opened the door and her face changed immediately
“hi Lexi, I am here to see my son”, He uttered and entered inside; Sarah was surprised and stared at Lexi.
“I know Grace sent you” " she whispered to Sarah and led her inside. Once inside, Micheal gave her two pictures and stared at her.
“Who is that in the picture?” He asked, Lexi started trembling all of a sudden and Micheal laughed
“look at you, I'm trying to help you, trying to help you get good cash and quit that stripper job of yours and what? You go behind my back and start telling Grace my secrets-
He stood up and walked up to her, placed the picture on her chest and leaned forward
“you will find a way to fix this; if this gets to Lucas's ears, or spoils my plan, consider yourself dead”, Micheal threatened in a whisper, patted Sarah's shoulders, and they left together.
Lexi was confused and scared.
