Chapter 77: meeting Godfrey
I ran after Tricia and grasped her hand. "Where are we going to?
"To the hotel to greet that bastard "
"Greet who? Godfrey? Why are we going to greet him after what he did to me?
"You'll find out when we get there. You look good. I'll go drive out the car from the garage. Lock up"
Tricia grabbed her car key from the cabinet and left for the garage.
I hurried back to my room, grabbed my phone and my bag. I locked up the house and joined Tricia who was waiting for me in the car.
"Do you mind sharing your plan with me? I asked.
"Nothing much. Just going to make him see reasons with me and confess to framing you up. we'll get the evidence and show to Jayden and you'll be back in your husband's house "
"Sounds like a plan. Drive" I smiled, fixing the seat belt.
minutes later we arrived at the hotel.
I got down from the car and adjusted my gown.
Tricia moved to the car trunk and then lifted a bag which caught my attention.
"Uh hold on Tricia. What's with the bag? Are you intending staying with him?
"Oh come on Monalisa. You've got a great sense of humour. No. This has my tools for resolving issues "
"Tools for what?
"Is this the hotel he's in?
"Yes this is the hotel"
"Good. Now let's go say hello to that bastard "
Cynthia lifted the bag and went in.
I followed her immediately.
We were stopped by the receptionist from going in.
"Who are you looking for? The receptionist asked.
"Ah! Do not worry. He knows we are here" Tricia replied
"Uh ..I have to inform him of your presence"
"No need. He's aware ". I added.
"I'm sorry but that's the hotel policy. I can't allow you two into the anyone's room without first informing such person of your arrival " The receptionist insisted.
"Someone please get this bitch off my case" Tricia complained. "You know what? I'm not going to listen to anything else you've got to say. Tell me Bess, what the fuck is his room number?
"I don't know. I...I..." I paused as I had a flashback. I recalled my gaze falling on the door and I saw the number before leaving the hotel in anger yesterday. "Ah! I snapped my fingers.
"What is it? Tricia asked.
"I remember it now. Room 409. That's his room number"
"Good. Now let's go find him and send him our greetings"
Tricia pulled her bag off the counter, grasped my hand and dragged me along to the elevator.
we got to Godfrey's room and Tricia knocked on his door twice.
"I'm coming! his voice came from inside.
the door opened and Godfrey was shocked to see me standing outside his door.
"Is this the fucking bastard? Tricia asked pointing at Godfrey.
"Yes , it's him"
"What the hell is this? Who the hell is she?
"Shut the fuck up bastard. We've come to greet you. Now step away from the door"
Tricia pushed Godfrey out of the way and went in.
Godfrey shut the door behind him and went after us.
I was already sitting on the couch watching Tricia unzip the bag.
"Who is she Monalisa?
"You'll find out soon who I am"
Tricia pulled out a huge wrench hammer from the bag she was carrying and pointed it at Godfrey.
Godfrey fell on the bed, his pupils shaking in fear.
"Monalisa, get hold of the gangster you brought to my room"
"Shut up or do you want me to shut your mouth with this?
"Oh my gush Tricia! What in the world are you doing with such weapon. You said we are here to greet him....oohh...I see. I get it now"
"That's good. Now start talking dude. I've got questions, supply them with reasonable answers "
"What questions?
"Why are you here in LA?
"For revenge ".
"So, drugging Monalisa, getting her into bed and getting her man over here is part of the revenge plan, right?
"Yes!
"That's it"
"What!!! you did it? How could you betray me"
"Hold on! That was part of the plan, that's because Cynthia actually came up with that plan but after having a word with you...I went back to Cynthia to have a word with her"
"Yes, on how to set the plan in motion and destroy Monalisa's Marriage and happiness "
"No. That's not true"
"The fact that I actually fell for that text message you sent me"
"Text message? What text?
"You texted me to come back to the hotel to discuss how to expose Cynthia"
"I never texted you. I didn't text you. In fact, after you left, i met up with Cynthia and I told her plainly that I was no longer interested in the revenge plan. We got into an argument and I left. Then I felt something heavy hit my head and I passed out."
"That's a lie. I know ...I remember being served a drink and the waiter said that you asked him to give that to me. You made him serve me spiked drink"
"I never did so. I'm really innocent. I swear. I was shocked to see you in bed. I will never desire you or lust after you "
"Wait what? Are you saying that Monalisa isn't hot to be desired? I mean what's the point of the revenge? you lost a hot lady and couldn't take it"
"The point of the revenge is that Monalisa humiliated my family by her act and I never had any feelings for her. I do not love her. I can't bed a woman I don't love"
"So if you had married her...you wouldn't have bed her?
"Maybe... maybe not, maybe when I eventually fall in love with her"
"Yet she's got the hottest and richest gentleman fall for her, which you ruined"
"I didn't ruin it"
"Really? Tricia glared at him.
"Fine. it's partly my fault "
"It's all your fault. if you had pushed Cynthia away and not listen to her and come down here, all these bullshit wouldn't have happened "
"I know. Let's do this. Let's go to your husband. I'll explain things to him. he'll definitely let you back into his life" Godfrey suggested.
"Do you think it will work? I asked
"We have to do something. We have to clear the air by telling him the truth about us, our past, everything and my revenge plan and Cynthia's involvement in all this."
"What do you think Tricia?
"I think we should try. It's better than sitting around crying and doing nothing. We should go see Jayden now"
"But Jayden will be at the office"
"Ha ha funny Monalisa. A heartbroken man won't be at work. He'll be home, drunk, devasted and angry. We should go before he does something stupid"
"I'll have to change into something presentable"
"You've never looked presentable" Tricia clapped back at him, placing her wrench hammer in the bag. "Let's bail out guys" Tricia lifted her bag and we followed out.
We got into the car and she drove off.
My heart beat raced so fast and my pulse and breathing increased as we draw closer to Jayden's house.
"Will he forgive me? will he listen to us? Will he ever believe us and accept me back? Will he continue to love me?
these questions ran through my mind while we drove down to Jayden's house.
I let down the window and let the fresh air fall on my face, hopefully it would calm my tensed nerves.
Tricia noticed I was tensed touched my hand.
"Don't worry Bess, everything is going to be alright. We'll fix this and have you back home in no time" she smiled at me.
I forced out a smile and smiled back at her.
"I hope so" I muttered, exhaling.
