After settling Blake into his bed, Jake joined his uncle at the garage who had taken Hillary and Dr David there. He had wanted to get rid of the woman once and for all, but he had been surprised to hear the revelations which were being made.
“What did you just say?” He turned to his uncle who had just muttered something unbelievable.
Did he just hear him say Hillary was responsible for his mother’s death?
Adrian sighed when he saw the bewildered look on Jake’s face. He slowly nodded his head and said, “It is true.”
Jake stood thunderstruck when he heard that. He felt like his whole body had been hit with a truck as he remained unmoved. He couldn’t believe what he had heard, as a matter of fact he didn’t want to believe it.
He shook his head, “That’s not true. Mother had died of heart–” He paused why it finally donned on him. Heart disease.
She had poisoned her too. Jake felt like his world was spinning. How could someone plague his family in such a way?
He had never seen anyone as vicious as Hillary. He could never had imagined this woman was responsible to his mother’s death. How had that happened? He had thought his mother had died from a heart disease but unfortunately she had been poisoned to death by this evil witch? Why?
“How can you be so cruel?” He asked with lividity. His body shook vehemently as he stared at her, anger blazing through his eyes.
“What did my family ever do to you? What did my innocent mother do to you for you to murder her?!” He demanded angrily while Hillary scoffed in derision.
“What your mother did?” She asked in an irritated tone, but continued without waiting for his reply. Her eyes staring daggers at Jake.
“Your mother was a stingy bitch! She was crazily stingy. She had all the wealth, influence and power and a caring husband, but she couldn’t offer me anything yet she called me her friend. I was struggling as a little star but she did nothing. She liked seeing me beg her for support when she could have easily shared what she had. So yes, I killed your stupid mother and married her husband to make a better life for myself as I deserve. She kept enjoying all our tea meetings little did she know I was poisoning her, because that’s how dumb and stupid she was. And believe me I’d do it ten times over, because she didn’t deserve all she had!” Hillary spat out.
“You crazy bitch!” Jake lunged at her and violently grabbed her neck the moment those words left her mouth. He pushed her backwards till he slammed her body hard against a car, but instead of whimpering or screaming the wench was laughing and that riled Jake even more.
“Your parents are idiots most especially that stupid father of yours.” She cussed.
“You witch!” Jake growled as he tightened his grip over her neck, squeezing whatever miserable life she had in her, he pulled her closer towards himself and once again rammed her body against another car the force was hard that hit side of the car had slightly compressed. “I’ll fucking kill you!” He roared, his eyes were full with anger and hatred.
Adrian sighed when he saw Jake in rage, with the way he looked and behaved he was sure he’d kill Hillary with his own hands and he didn’t want that. He moved towards him and held his hand which was tightly gripping her neck.
“Jake let her go. You’ll kill her.” He told him.
“Then let me kill her.” Jake growled as he once again tightened his grip over her neck, he placed his other hand on her neck too and vehemently pressed on it so badly that her face had turned red. He couldn’t think well, and all he could think about was killing her, he wanted to sniffle the life out of her because she didn’t deserve to live. He wanted to kill her a million times over and torture her soul.
“Jake listen to me you don’t want to do that.” Adrian said, forcefully gripping Jake’s hand and pulling it away from Hillary’s neck, while she gasped for air before she started coughing. Her face was dark red, she could hardly breathe. She had thought he was really going to kill her now. She placed her hand on her neck which was burning with pain and glared at Jake and Adrian.
“You..fool.” She raged, apparently her end hasn’t fully dawned on her.
Jake lividly glared at his uncle, “Uncle what are you doing?” He furiously demanded as he tried to wriggle his hand away from his uncle’s but the man wasn’t letting him.
“Jake you can’t become a murderer because of her, she isn’t worth it. Your mother wouldn’t want that, don’t let her death be in vain by letting someone like her turn you into someone you shouldn’t become.” Adrian told him but Jake didn’t want to listen.
Adrian didn’t want his sister’s child to become a murderer especially not because of someone like Hillary. She didn’t deserve that special treatment.
“You….should listen….to your uncle.” Hillary who was still coughing managed to say. She was in so much pain, the impact of the hit had made the gunshot wound which had been wrapped to resume bleeding. She had her hand over it as she tried to control the bleeding but to no avail. How she hated Jake and desired to kill him now.
Hearing her speak made Jake even more livid. He just wanted her to drop out of the surface of the earth and stop existing.
He didn’t know how Hillary could be so cruel. Fifteen years ago she had once been his mother’s friend. He had never liked her even as a child. But she kept visiting their home and his mother was so affectionate towards her. She doted on her like an elder sister would, little did she know she was catering for a viper. When his mother died it had broke the whole family. But after his mother died ten years ago, Hillary started visiting their house more often acting like an obligated sister who must look after her late sister’s family. She’d act nice when Henry was there and non-chalant when he wasn’t. She tried to comfort his father and had somehow paved her way into his heart. When grandfather had asked him to remarry someone to help look after the children because they were both busy at the company, he had protested at first but had later surprised everyone when he chose Hillary. Simply because she was more familiar with the children and his wife had trusted her. To him that was what made her the best fit. And that was how this witch had ended up in his home.
What sort of a monster was she?
Adrian patted Jake on his shoulder, “She isn’t worth it and she knows. And you know killing her will only make a leeway for her don’t give her that. She has to pay for what she has done but not with death.” He told Jake as he tried to calm him down. Jake stared at his uncle for a while before pulling his hand away from him.
“Then I’ll make her pay some way.” Jake snarled while uncle Adrian patted his shoulder again. “Just let me handle it.” He told him before turning towards Marcus men, “Suspend her.” He ordered. He was also angry and he’d love to kill her but death would be too good for her. It had taken him years to find out the truth about his sister’s death. He had always been suspicious of Hillary but he couldn’t prove his suspicion until recently when Jake had started his investigation. After secretly following a few trials from Jake’s investigation he found the person who Hillary had planted at the cafeteria she and his sister had frequent at the time, and he had confessed to the crime. He couldn’t believe his only sister had died for being nice to someone who wasn’t deserving of it.
“What do you mean suspend me?” Hillary asked in horror when she saw the men approach her. “Don’t you dare touch me!” She threatened as she slowly moved backward.
Marcus who had been quiet sighed irritatedly and stepped forward, stopping in front of her, his eyes shooting daggers at her.
“Who are you?” Hillary asked when Marcus stared at her like a gladiator, but he ignored and gave her a once over, “I’m someone you wouldn’t like to know.” He replied before violently grabbing her hair making Hillary scream. “Let me go you bastard!” She screamed.
“One more word and I break you from bone to bone.” Marcus drawled as he threw her to the floor and roared, “Tie this bitch upside down till her blood flows out of her eyes.” He had been having a nonchalant attitude towards this, but after this new revelation he couldn’t help but feel sad for the Beau siblings. He couldn’t imagine how Jake was feeling at the moment. Having a step mother murder you parents in their own home was something he didn’t think he could ever forgive. If he was Jake he’d use a saw and chop this bitch to death!
Hillary knew things were not looking good for her. From the moment she saw Adrian she knew she wasn’t going to escape this place on unscathed. But she wasn’t going to down like that.
“People are going to look for me. My men will come here and look for him and all of you will be dead meat. They’ll burn this place to the ground!” She threatened vehemently.
“No one will come to look for you, because all your men have been arrested, so I’d advice you to redirect your thoughts.” Adrian told her. Hillary’s eyes widened in shock. She shook her head and roared. “That’s not possible!” Her men were going to come for her. Shirley was going to call them and they’d come rescue her.
Adrian scoffed at her, “Then by all means keep waiting.” he replied, before opening up the sliver briefcase he had brought with him. He pulled out a huge plier from it and also a number of syringes which had fluid in them.
Hillary shuddered when he started to approach her with the things in his hand. Her heart slowly began to race as she watched him.
“What are you doing?” She asked nervously from where she was suspended. Her hands had been tied to the pillars just as they did to the butler earlier.
“Have you heard of how the Chinese made their daughters have dainty feet about a thousand years ago?” He asked but Hillary didn’t answer as her eyes were glued on the things in his hand.
Adrian hissed and continued without waiting for her answer as he was sure she didn’t know, “They broke their toes and tied it backward to the sole of their feets. That way the girl’s didn’t grow big feets. But there’s one thing you should know most of these girls were maimed for life and also the pains they endured were excruciating.” He told her as he looked at her toes. Hillary also looked at her toes and were being suspended from the ground and looked at Adrian who now had the plier close to her feet.
“I’d love to see how you walk in jail.”
“Please don’t do that.” She begged but that made Adrian chuckle.
“I’m sure you never gave my sister a chance to beg neither did you when you killed her husband.” He paused and sighed. “I’m not cruel as you because I’m not going to kill you, but I’ll make dire effort to make you miserable for the rest of your life. When I’m done you wish you had never had a devious mind like you do.” He said and the next second he hooked the plier on her toe and broke it making Hillary to scream at the top of her voice.
But Adrian didn’t relent as he continued go break all of her toes. Hillary yelled, screamed, begged but Adrian didn’t stop till he was done. He let the plier fall to the ground and looked at her pathetic face which had tears streaming down.
“I thought you loved smiling?” He asked as he slowly began to roll up her sleeves.
“W-hat are…you do..ing?” Hillary struggled to ask.
Shrugging his shoulders and replied, “Nothing. I just thought since you love poisoning people with drugs I should at least return the favor, but be rest assured you won’t die” He said, as he uncapped the syringes.
“This here is lithium, and this is haloperidol, and this is chlorpyrifos. They all have therapeutic effects but their synergistic effect and adverse effect especially at high dosed will cause you neurodegeneration and permanent paralysis among many other things. You might feel like you’re dying when the effects get into full swing but you won’t. Believe me I know how much you’ll wish to die after this, but this is how I want you to live for the rest of your days; paralyzed, useless. This is what someone like you deserves, this is how I get my family justice for what you’ve done to us. Because death to you is mercy, I want you to spend the rest of your days reflecting on how you’ve lived your life and how you could have made it better. Think about the lives you ruined just to attain wealth and power and then think about how they’ve all brought you to nothingness.
You worked hard, plotted, harmed and killed people just to get wealth and game but all these made you who’ll become. This should be an eye opener for you and people like you outside the world reading Sir Zach story to know that the good book never lied when it said, Vanity upon vanity, all is vanity.” He said before he stuck the needles into her while she screamed helplessly but no matter what hard she cried and pleaded no one listened.
It was indeed the end of the road for her.
