Your Turn to Chase Me, Reborn For Revenge

Rachel huffed, of course, it was better than Martin's home but did her daughter look down on her sacrifices in order to give her that home? She never loved Martin; she had just wanted what Kathleen had and at the time she wanted it so much she took it by any means necessary.

"Yes it is but do you think your mother is made of money? We have to think of how to get rid of April and get you into the Davis manor." Rachel couldn't do things the way she usually did. She saw that now. 

She had been naive and thought the same tactics she had used over twenty years ago on Martin would not work on a man like Dean. Martin was a foolish businessman but Dean was intelligent and savvy on his own.

Lucy glanced at her mother and asked, "Mother, what happened between you and April's mother Kathleen?" 

Lucy had always wondered but had never asked but since Martin had brought it up today she had wondered even more what had happened between the two women. She wondered did her mother kill Kathleen, surely not.

Rachel's eyes widened, "How dare you! Do not mention that woman's name in my presence."

Lucy was taken aback at her mothers harsh tone. But she wanted answers because if she could kill Kathleen she hoped that she would kill April.

"I didn't mean anything by it mother, I just hoped that…" Lucy left the rest of her question hanging.

Rachel gave off a dry laugh, "Yes I can help you. I really should have killed the brat along with her mother but at the time I needed April for leverage."

"Leverage?" Lucy was only interested in why she didn't kill April when she was younger, she didn't care that she had Killed Kathleen. If her mother had done it once she could probably do it again and that made Lucy immensely happy.

Rachel sighed she hated talking about this and especially hated to explain herself, "Yes… she was leverage so I left her alive." she didnt like to discuss this topic as it brought up feelings of the past but she continued, "Martin would never love another woman that I knew but he did want a mother for his poor motherless rat of a daughter."

"Smart move mother." Lucy agreed. Her mother had so many tricks up her sleeve and had gotten where she wanted from one easy move. Lucy was in awe, she didnt want to get her hands dirty but if her mother arranged everything then her hands would be clean.

Lucy placated her mother further, "Mother you were so smart from such a young age now you are older and much more experienced im sure you will think of a way to deal with April."

Rachel smiled and sipped on her champagne, "Of course I do. I was too busy using April to get you good grades now we dont need her we can get rid of her. 

"And when Dean is upset due to her loss you can swoop in and comfort him. Play the game." Rachel added, she laughed and continued. "Kathleen and her daughter are too easy, Martin was easy. The only problem may be Dean, we have to strike quickly before he can put blocks in our way."

"So what's the plan mother," Lucy asked. She sat forward and set her empty champagne glass down. She was eager to hear the plan she wanted Dean and she didnt care how she got him.

She had thought the man of her dreams was James, she never thought she could meet Dean. For years she slept with many men that said they could help her achieve that but it all came to nothing. But now she had bigger dreams and wishes for the future.

Rachel smile disappeared, she thought of what she had to do years ago and to get back into that mindset took her to a dark place. She created her perfect future and now she had to create a better life for her daughter because her daughter's benefits are also hers.

Kathleen was slowly poisoned over time, twenty years ago she could give Kathleen a non-tracible drug that slowly ate away at her. But now technology was better and the drugs she had used all those years ago were easily traced in food. Even Martin had found out.

Rachel knew that Martin was only getting better and not worse as Kathleen had. He had found out, Rachel had her suspicions but couldn't prove that he had stopped taking the drugs she gave him. He had started locking doors that used to be open, he wasn't tierd or sore anymore. 

Kathleen found out all too late and her organs had started to shut down by that time. She had confronted Rachel but as it was too late and due to her ill health Kathleen suffered a heart attack. It was the best moment in Rachels life.

Coming back to the here and now she answered her daughter, "Mother is tierd but I have a plan. Leave it to me."

"Okay mother go to bed for now. I will see you in the morning." Lucy beamed at her mother, she had finally got her mother to agree to deal with April. Soon all her manifestations would come true. Lucy continued to drink the champagne and plan her future as she looked out over the City.

Rachel went to bed and fell fast asleep quickly and easily. Speaking about the past had drained her energy and what needed to be done now she would need her energy and witts about her.

In another room in the same Fitzwilliam Hotel, two guards sat and listened to the recording they had just taken of the two women in the penthouse. They saved the file and backed it up before sending a copy to their boss Mr Davis.

In the Davis manor, Dean was on his computer actioning his planned proposal when he got a text, seeing it was from his guards he opened it and saw a voice note attached.. He stood up and walked to the study door before locking it and playing the voice clip.
