Chapter 510: Wretched State
Chapter 510: Wretched State
At Go's Ancestral Mansion
The next day, Gracy was still too agitated with how things turned out to be. She was worried that everything she had sacrificed till now would be in vain with Bill getting arrested like that. Yes, she was safe for now but how long would that last?
Seeing how things were going south at this point, she just couldn't sit calmly and do nothing. Bill was having the hardest time at this point. Everyone who was with him before was trying their best to save their own asses, making sure their names would not get entangled with Bill.
"Those bastards! A bunch of two-faced cowards!" she hissed as she bit her nails while her body tensed up.
"I have to do something… I can't go down like this…" she whispered as she desperately contemplated every plan inside her head.
After thinking deeply for a few moments, she called Bill's lawyer. But after hearing those idiots talk negatively about the case, her face turned red in anger.
"Do what you must! What are We paying you for if you can't even do your job properly?! Why is there no progress in the case until now?! What?! Are you saying Bill won't be able to get away with this one?!" she shouted, her fuming voice reverberated in the walls of her room.
"Calm down Gracy… We are doing everything we can. Please listen to our situation first…"
Gracy listened to the explanation of their lawyers from the other line and weakly slumped on the floor as soon as the call ended. Her grip on her mobile phone tightened.
"This can't be! I have to do something!" she anxiously thought as her eyes darted in a particular direction. Bill's downfall would be her downfall as well so she must do everything she can to help Bill!
She looked at her mobile phone and dialed another number with the last hope that this person might help Bill.
"Hello," she heard the man's voice answered on the other line.
"Your father needs your help right now!… Please do something… No! You have to do something! You're his own blood! You must help him and make sure he gets out of prison!" Gracy demanded as tears ran down her eyes.
She was so desperate and anxious that she could no longer wait and spend her days worrying about what might happen to her the next moment.
She heard a long frustrated sigh from the other line, making her fume in anger as she burst, "He is your father! His blood runs in your veins! Even though he did not show you to the world as his own son, he provided you with everything! He gave you the luxurious life you are enjoying right now! You won't be where you are right now without him!!! Do your duty as a son and make sure you get him out of those rotten bars!!! Do you hear me?!!"
"Calm down Gracy. Try to relax first or you will have a nervous breakdown. I will try my best so don't worry… But looking at all the evidence… It will be very hard. I was not aware that he has this kind of illegal connection or how deep his connection with the underworld goes but I heard that there is solid evidence against him doing a lot of illegal things. Are you aware of this?" Gracy heard him asked.
She was silent because she was aware of it. As soon as Bill Grey showed his interest in her, she found out how loaded and powerful the man was, promising her everything. She practically sold her soul to that devil. Bill said that he would make her his queen and give her the power to do anything without consequences and be untouchable.
"Gracy, are you there? Just calm down alright and I'll see what I can do." she heard him speak but she felt like they were nothing but empty words. She no longer answered and ended the call that instantly.
Gracy stood up from the floor and with her still, weak knees sat on the couch. She closed her eyes to compose herself. Bill told her to wait but just a few days of waiting was killing her already. She already had a lot of back-up plans in her head on how to move next because no matter how she looked at it, nothing would end well for her at that point. It would only be a matter of time...
'What if Bill ended up rotting in prison?' she thought in annoyance. There was no guarantee that she would not end up in prison so, before that happened she had to make sure to erase her greatest nightmare in this world. The reason why her life became so miserable… Lana.
She harbored great resentment towards Lana. She had lost everything and thought that she would be back with the only family left for her… The Sys but Lana took everything away from her. She left the country totally broken so much so that it also affected her work.
She spent her days abroad cursing and killing Lana over and over again inside her head but she could not do a thing since she was not powerful enough to go against her adding to the fact that Liam was protecting her.
She spent her years away planning for a comeback to destroy Lana and her prayers were finally answered with her unexpected encounter with Bill who instantly fell in love with her at first sight. Bill wooed her, showering her with all the luxurious things and promising her everything that she wanted.
She had just said in jest that she wanted to take revenge on someone who hurt her deeply on one of their dates. She told him that this was why her heart could not open up to him as it was filled with so much hate and anger that she felt like she could never be with anyone unless she killed or destroyed that person the same way she was hurt.
Surprisingly, Bill said he could easily get revenge for her…
There she saw an opportunity that she could not miss. Bill did everything to please her and thus she voluntarily offered herself to him as his woman. She did everything to make sure Bill would fall deep for her. He was a man that she could easily please and manipulate at the same time.
The perfect man she used to orchestrate everything against Lana. Her entire life started running like a movie in front of her eyes as she sat down on the couch in the living room.
Regrets… losses… gains... She had seen everything and the reason behind her wretched state was Lana…. and she swore she was not going to spare her for that.
