Abby has never been so confused in her life. She couldn’t believe this was happening to her.

How did the Adkins lawyers know about it?

Did her family out her?

"W... What are you talking about?" She barked ignoring the silent whisperes from the people around.

"My master has housed you for more than 15 years. He has provided for you, changed your status and made you important people in the society and you pay him by plotting his death and the demise of our mistress?

Abby’s eyes turned wide. She placed both hands on her head.

"What is going on Abby, why are they ruining my daughter’s engagement party?" David Willard spoke this time. He wasn’t one who speak all the time, but this was getting out of hand.

Just because he was quiet does not mean he was deaf. He could hear the words from the people around. The questions they asked.

"You and your family have brought nothing but pain and reproach to my master." Willy said.

"My master Is also can no longer endure your foolishness anymore and he wants you out of his estate and family for good." Treadwell said.

"Remember this, you breeched the contract not him. For plotting against him and trying to harm his Penguin, you have overstayed your welcome." Timothy said.

"Mother!" Chris called.

"I told you accepting that money was a bad idea." He said then turned to the lawyers. He couldn’t lose his position as an Adkins. That name alone hold the highest degree of power in the world.

For years they have loved like royalty just by bearing the name. He would never accept this.

Fuck his mother!

Fuck his father!

Fuck his stupid family!

He didn’t care if he denounced them in public, but he couldn’t lose the Adkins name.

"Why don’t you just punish the offender? Do we all have to pay for her foolishness?"

"Chris!!?" Abby called staring at him with wide eyes.

"She’s your mother Chris, no matter what she has done you don’t speak to her that way." Gregory yelled at his son.

"My mother?" Chris spat.

"All she has done is plot in how to kill the mad heir and make the worst decision..."

"...I accepted that deal because of you!" Abby cried out furiously.

"We had no money for your engagement party and I took the deal to save your ass. How dare you betray me like this?" Abby yelled and murmurs rippled across the hall.

Everyone was bemused at the drama. Most people recorded their conversation, others just stood at a spot shocked at the revelation.

If everything the Adkins lawyers said against Abby and her family is true, then they were heartless.

Most people just stood at a corner amazed that they were seeing the infamous lawyers pass judgement against the Peterson’s.

Other’s who have waited for their downfall were elated. Atlass, punishment was finally coming to them for all their evil deeds. They have used their power to steal from people for so long, it was time they get it.

"So what if you took the deal for me. I never asked for an extravaganza. All I wanted was to be engaged. You’re the greedy one who keeps trying to impress people and act like you’re wealthy." Chris accused his mother.

He would rather cut all ties with them than not be an Adkins. He didn’t mind serving Osvaldo for the rest of his life. He would do anything to not leave.

"Like I said before. Why punish us all for her sins." Chris turned to Timothy.

"Chris!" Gregory called, holding his chest with one hand. He was having a heart attack himself. Everything happening seems like a dream, but it was real.

"What father!? If you want to stay, you can, but just know, I will not be a part of your nuisance. I am innocent." He declared.

"Not so fast there young man." Willy suddenly said to him and he paused.

"We’ve seen countless times how you try to fight the master of the house. Why do you think he’ll let you love in his mansion?" Willy asked.

"You’re not exempted from the punishment." Treadwell said.

"Your thirty minutes is almost up, pack your bags and go." Abby clenched her hands into a feast and turned to Maybelline. Their children were married already, it is only normal they hoise them for the time being.

But Maybelline turned her face away from her sister in-law. She would never carry such burden and shame. Just like Abby, she values her image too.

"Maybelline, please let us stay in your mansion for some time while we find a place to stay." Abby turned to her friend and sister but Mays next word shocked her.

"Abby, they are accusing you of almost killing your master. A man who housed you for years, who knows what you would do to me if I let you stay." May said worriedly.

"I’m so sorry my dear friend, but I cannot let you stay with me." Abby frowned at her words. And to think she thought she had a sister all this while.

She has helped the Willard family with her position for years. She has given David Willard opportunity he would only dream of, yet in their time of need, they were turning their back on them.

"What are you saying May? We’re in-laws, our children are married. If there’s anyone to help it is you." Abby said for May to frown.

"My daughter can never be married to your son Abby. You’re a nobody now and my family can never associate with people like you." May started.

"I have put up with your nasty attitude for years and I am so sure everyone here agrees." May spat.

"Aunty, how can you say such?" Chris asked the older woman.

"Who’s speaking?" May asked. "The same boy that was quick to turn against his own family. What makes you think I’ll let my daughter be married to you?" May asked.

"Who knows what you’d do to my Ariana in the future." Then she turned to David. "Sweetheart, get Ariana let us leave this mansion before the owners kick us out." She then turned to every guest there.

"I would advise you all leave too before you get kicked out." Abby could not believe this.

She turned to the other guest, but everyone ran away from her. No one wanted to help. She has helped most of the people here in the past, but now, they all acted like they didn’t know her.

Fine!

She’ll make them pay, one after another.
