Chapter 145: Making Things Right

Grace returned home, got dressed and went over to see Charleston Charles alongside Emily. They met him outside his compound, drinking and smoking heavily; when his men brought them to him, Charleston chuckled.

“Has the evil been arrested?”He asked, grinning from chin to chin.

Grace smiled at him holding the glass of wine he had served them tightly. Suddenly, she threw it towards Charleston and it almost cut his cheek. His men tried to rush into the visitor's room, but Emily had already locked the door, and Grace warned the ones inside to stay still.

She walked up to Charleston and leaned forward

“You do know what happens when a member of the four clubs snitches?”She asked, placing the gun on his throat, Charleston chuckled and stared into her eyes.

“I don't give a fuck, I know Duke killed Ashley because just immediately after her death, he held all the money Ashley invested in the four clubs-

“Like you were not part of this, the only person innocent of any allegation on Ashley Cole's death is Lucas as he was going through a bitch! Quick question, are you poor?”

She snapped.

“Mind your tone child-

“child? Very funny” Grace uttered and stood up straight. She suddenly pointed the gun at his forehead and his men did the same to her

“Well, Charleston, I want to inform you that Mrs Silver gave you out; yes, she reported to the FBI that Charleston Charles is a dirty businessman just like you described Duke and Lucas”, Grace told him; Charleston was confused; he shook his head.

“If so, why are the police not here with you? They can't do that”, He snapped. Grace smiled and showed him her phone.

“You see the last call there? 911, they are on their way,” She assured him; Charleston got angry immediately.

“How could she? I told her everything I knew about the four clubs, I'm killing that woman, I -

He suddenly paused and stared at Grace for some time. She smiled placed her gun back on her waist and picked up her bag

“I hope you are ready to go to prison, Charleston.”She snapped and walked out with Emily.

They headed straight to the police. They met the Chief Agent with Mrs. Silver and General John, Grace and Emily exchanged glances as she walked up to them

“I need to talk to you in private” Grace told him, the Chief Agent rolled his eyes

“In case you didn't notice Miss Grace, I'm busy-

“Oh, I see, and I was busy thinking you were so intrigued about finding out more about the four clubs, or are you taking orders from someone?”She stated staring at Mrs. Silver, the Chief Agent took a deep breath and walked off towards his office with Grace and Emily following suit.

The Chief Agent sat up and stared at them sternly

“Alright I will arrest Charleston too-

“And Mrs Silver, unless you're ready to release Duke and Lucas, do a proper investigation and if it means getting them arrested then I won't stand in your way”

Grace told him; the Chief Agent stared at her for some time and stood up; he picked up his phone.

“Release occupants of cell.06” He ordered and hung up.

“Are you happy now?-

“yes sir” Grace chuckled

“Don't think for one second that this is over, I have my men investigating the four clubs”

He snapped and excused himself.

Micheal barged into the Rosé's and stormed straight to Jason who was giving out orders to Sarah, he held his throat

“you tried to fucking kill me” Micheal uttered furiously.

“I returned your money because I didn't want to get involved, so what the fuck are you talking about?”Jason snapped and pushed him away; Micheal turned and grabbed Sarah, who was just passing.

“Then it was you little brat, trying to get revenge for your dad-

Jason pushed him away from her

“What's wrong with you!?”He yelled and pointed towards the exit door of the bar

“Get the fuck out of my bar you scaring my customers!”He told Micheal, and Micheal chuckled.

“First, it was my son, and now it's me?-

“Nobody gives a fuck about your son Micheal. Just get the hell out of my bar”, Jason snapped.

Meanwhile, back at Mr. Victor's house, Mr. Ethan paid him a visit with Ramone and Gabriel. They told him about what they had earlier concluded, Mr. Victor was about to throw a rage at them just as always but Gabriel walked forward and gripped onto his arm where he was shot

“You know me pretty well, Victor; you know how angry and stubborn I can be now. This is not a request; we are not pleading with you. I don't know what dirty game of taking what does not belong to you that you are playing with your son, but we are getting this done,” He told Victor. Victor nodded with a grunt, and Gabriel pushed him off.

“I know you don't mind dying with the truth, but we are nothing like what you have become after the accident”, Ramone added; Mr. Ethan just stared at them, and at some point, he chuckled.

“You both should head home. I have somewhere to be” He told them and left.

Mr Ethan headed to his wife's grave, slumped on it and wept bitterly

“I'm sorry dearest” He uttered between sobs

“I'm making things right just for you, and I know you are looking down at Lucas and Grace with this anger, but it is what it is; you can't stop fate because of what happened in the past. I feel so heavy for allowing things to get to this point” He cried. Mr. Ethan remained there until nightfall.

Later that night, Emily was returning from the Rosé's after meeting with Jason, and she flagged down a cab to head home. The cab man stopped briefly to get something, suddenly the back door opened and someone stabbed Emily

“fuck-

She muttered as she held onto her stomach and felt the knife in it

“Help!” She screamed.
