Chapter 116: He Knew And Planned It
1483words
Oliver is not getting at Sapphire like she expected and the crazy bitch who would have urged him on was locked behind the bars.
She did her findings and found out that it is Oliver that is deliberating holding her in prison, the Smiths have been trying to get their daughter to no avail, which made her wonder if Heather and Oliver are on bad sides of each other.
Maybe she is being blackmailed to stay put but it isn't like Heather, she would rather try to bring everyone down than being controlled like a puppet.
The door creaked open and Heather was brought inside the room, cuffs used to hold her in place, the warden sat her down on the chair and left the room.
Melissa stared at her and observed that there was no hopelessness, instead it seemed like she was expecting something, like she was waiting for someone. Her hair was messy on her head and her lips were a bit pale. She had a foreign expression on her face as she stared back at Melissa.
'Shouldn't you greet your old friend?" Melissa asked but Heather only regarded her with a blank face.
'What are you doing here?" She replied instead and Melissa scoffed, seems like being in prison for a while have roughed the soft edges Heather forced herself to make over the years.
'What are you still doing here?" Melissa asked, dropping all the faux sweetness, she figured that coaxing won't work with her at the moment.
'What are you talking about?" Heather asked, placing her hand on the table while Melissa crossed her hand.
'Don't tell me you are planning to rot forever in prison, I know you better than that," Melissa said and leaned forward. 'We are one of a kind, tell me. What are you up to now?"
'I am coming out soon, Oliver will get me out soon," she replied and Melissa scoffed.
'Don't give me that shit. The damn man told them to continue letting you stay here, behind bars, when your parents tried to get you out. Was that part of the plan too?" Melissa said and Heather countenance didn't change for a bit before she suddenly started laughing hysterically.
'What the hell are you saying, Melissa? Don't make me laugh. I am his fiancé, we are together. This isn't like your one sided crush on Matthew, this is something real," Heather said with a mocking smirk and the smile on Melissa's lips fell. 'What? You turned speechless, don't come back to sprout nonsense Melissa, I would not take it lightly," she said and got up, that got the attention of the cop standing behind the door.
'Hey, I am done here," she told him and she opened the door to lead her away while Melissa stared at her, she confirmed that something is really wrong with Heather, under no circumstances had she used her crush on Matthew to get back at her, it was like their mutual agreement since they both didn't have the love of the men they want and both men love the same person.
Even after she got Oliver, Heather never crossed that line, beside she felt like it was worth nothing, not even an insult to Melissa.
Melissa opened her bag and dialed a number, it rang once before the receiver picked up the call.
'I want information on what happened since Heather and Oliver left the gala that night, anything involving Heather and Oliver since then till now…also Venita," she ordered.
'Mr. Oliver contacted Mrs. Fann Tyler that very night, they seemed to sign some sort of agreement," A voice answered immediately.
'Fann Tyler, isn't that the doctor known for her hypnotist skill?" Melissa asked.
'Yes, the details of their discussion is still unknown but Ms. Heather ended up at the hospital, she seemed to be injured and then Mr. Oliver called Ms. Venita, she sneaked out of the Conrad Mansion that night."
'Probability that hypnosis was performed on Heather?'
'There is forty percent chance that it was,"
'Find me more details and inform me immediately about it,"
'Yes ma'am." Was the clipped answer before the connection was cut off.
'What dirty play is that scum up to?" Melissa murmured.

'So what was that nonsense you were saying on the phone?" Sapphire asked, placing her bag on the table and crossed her hand over her chest as she stared at the man who was wearing hoodies and face cap with glasses. 'And what the hell is up with your dressing? Is someone after you?"
'Oliver is probably keeping tabs on me, you are safe only because Alexander has some people guarding you every time, they don't dare to move close. It seems those men are more dangerous, there are some rumors flying around that those men are in the mafia," Mike said and drank some tea. 'Things would get really messy if you get on some mafia's wrong side."
'So what is that nonsense you were spilling earlier? Were you suggesting Luci is betraying me? For your information, I don't believe you," Sapphire told him and the man grimaced.
'I wasn't suggesting that she was backstabbing you, she is the best friend a person could ever for, she is doing whatever you are asking her to do diligently," Mike said and Sapphire exhaled silently, she was a bit tense about the prospect that someone suspect that Luci is trying to harm her.
'I implore you to ask Luci to withdraw from whatever it is that she is doing, you guys aren't the ones fooling Oliver, he is the one fooling you guys. Luci took Oliver to gamble, what was her report?"
'Why should I trust you? How do I know that you are working with Oliver?" Sapphire asked with stink eyes and Mike rolled his eyes.
'Ask your husband to dig some things out about me, whatever he sees would determine what you think. Me and Oliver are at odds, we have been at odds for a while now, the only thing that brought us together into a picture is the fact that your husband made me come clean about everything we did, see this new bruises, they are from the damn man," He told her, exposing his hand and Sapphire ran her gaze over the cuts and bruises that littered the man's hands. 'There are also some on my face if you haven't noticed. Now the reports, Sapphire. We haven't got all day,"
'She said that he is a novice and knows absolutely nothing about gambling, she had to teach him everything," Sapphire informed him and Mike scoffed.
'Novice my ass! Oliver owns more than five Casinos, he is a professional! He must be amused by Luci who is putting up an act in front of him. He likes to lie about the fact that he only controls two chains of business of Sparkle when in reality he is in control of everything, his numerous uncles and Aunts are just puppets who don't dare to go against him, he is deliberating posing as a scumbag but clean billionaire when is the dirtiest of them all.
Oliver is involved in the dealing of underground business, drugs and kids trafficking, Money laundering, just name it and he is involved, that darn grandfather of his is the only one capable of ordering him around.
What he plans to do is use the things you have always done against you, he would frame you and Heather for the crime. Of course Alexander would not let it get to you bad but he would be able to cut Heather off with that.
Now it is not that I like Heather but I guess she has some sort of leverage on Oliver and he wants to deal with her, he is not allowing her to get out of prison. Of course Heather is not a cool woman who is nice to a fault and would have screamed out whatever it was she had on him but he had her memory altered."
'What?!" Sapphire asked with wide eyes.
'And just so you know, Oliver had always known that you were pregnant even before you told him and had told me to get the tools for your abortion ready for when he came asking for it. Which means, whether Heather asked for it or she didn't, he was going to get rid of the babies anyway and I knew Oliver very well since we were in school not through Heather, like she claimed, you are just not going to punish only Heather, are you?"
