Jacqueline nodded.
"I won't let you down, Avery.Take care."
“Okay."
Avery slowly rose to his feet.
"I need to handle Dad's funeral now.I'll be counting on you, Jacqueline."
“Okay, don't worry about it."
Before he left, he reminded her, "Oh, Jacqueline.Dr.Fordham isn't an outsider.You can tell her anything.She can help you out."
"Got it."
All meek and demure she was when Avery was around.
However, the moment he left, her expression changed.She slammed the door shut, unable to control her rage.
"That bitch! Who is she to manage the household with me?"
Alexander held her hand.
"There, there.We're halfway through our plan.The Fordham family is reaching its demise.They're on the chopping block.They
won't be able to turn the tables anymore."
"Jeez! It was supposed to be a good opportunity to take over the Fordham family."
“Avery's doing this because he's worried about you.He doesn't want to drag you into the fray.Don't be angry.We've already bided
our time for years.This is nothing.We can wait."
Jacqueline sat on the couch with her legs crossed.
She fished out a cigarette, and he quickly lit it up for her.
After exhaling a cloud of smoke, she finally regained her composure.
"There aren't many in the family who are functional at the moment.That's their main problem.That old geezer is the only one
left.Once he's dead, the Fordham family will go downhill.
“Troy lost his arm and Sean can't walk.They're nothing.Keeping them under control will be easy-peasy."
“That old man isn't an easy target, though."
"No matter how capable he was, that's all in the past.He's old and ill now.This is our time.It'll take a lift of a finger to eliminate him
for good."
“What are you going to do?"
“Alexander, tell him about what's happening to the Fordham family."
"We don't have to do anything after that, huh? He'll spend his last breath learning the bombshell and die due to shock.The last
time I saw him, he was barely surviving.I'll get it done immediately."
Jacqueline stood before the window, watching the Fordham residence that was shrouded in darkness.
It was almost as dark as the glint in her eyes.
She murmured, “Mom, the revenge is going to be successful.The Fordham family is done for."
The temperature dropped at night.
Dark clouds layered each other, threatening to rain.
Olivia changed the medicine for Troy.
It was heart- wrenching to watch the prodigy fall from grace.
Willow drew a sunrise, the golden brilliance shining through the mist.He let out a bitter smile.
"It's beautiful.Unfortunately, I won't be able to draw with you again."She signaled something in response.
Although he didn't know much about sign language, his limited knowledge was enough for him to tell that she was comforting
him.
Olivia carried the tray of medicine to Sean's room and locked it.
He stood up from his wheelchair.
"Olivia, how long are you going to make me wait? Look at our family.There has to be someone managing the household."
“Relax, Sean."
"How can I be relaxed? Someone turned our family upside down and we found out who the murderer is.How long must I keep up
with this act?"
"It's true that Brandon is the murderer.But how can you be sure that he doesnt have an accomplice? What if there are more of
them?"
