Chapter 337- Familiar Gash
Sitting beside Sarah, leaning back on the bench, Valerie took a slow drag of her cigarette. Her eyes were half closed as the smoke curled from her lips and drifted into the air. Crossing one leg over the other, she pulled out a lighter and lit Sarah’s cigarette too.
"So, what’s the plan," Sarah asked her, with a curious look on her face, "Because the things you want from that Marissa Palace, aren’t possible unless they all are dead. Do you know what I’m trying to say?" she asked Val before taking a long puff.
Valerie stared at the faint haze of smoke swirling around them. After a beat she finally exhaled, her lips twisting into a bitter smile, "Hmm. You’re forgetting something, Sarah. My mom is already there, and I am not planning to ditch her this easily. Not unless I get what I want."
Sarah watched her carefully, a flicker of unease crossing her face, "Don’t you think, that’s a little extreme?" She asked Valerie who was still staring into space, "Last time it was Kanderton Police that was after us. But this plan of yours can change our fate. Interpol might get involved."
Valerie chuckled and a tear slipped down her face, "Don’t tell me that you are chickening out, Sarah. Remember what I did last time to bring back your boyfriend? I took the blame for sleeping with that guy just to keep you safe. And now you’re telling me about Interpol?"
Sarah was still hesitant about it. She had been doing small crimes and getting into jail. But the idea Valerie suggested was something big and could land them in serious trouble.
"Have you thought of consequences?" Sarah asked her and when found Val glaring at her she raised her free hand in defense, "I’m not backing off. But we also need a plan B. A backup plan. Rafael and Marissa might want to kill you."
Valerie shrugged and kept taking puffs deep in her thoughts. If everything went as planned, Marissa and Rafael would be on their knees, begging for her forgiveness.
