Chapter 14: The Plot to Get Catherine Out of Charles' Life
As Charles was driving to his office for his conference call, since Catherine refused to give him back his phone, Charles noticed in his rearview mirror that he was being followed. Knowing Catherine was behind it, he made an attempt to lose the person following him as he took another route to his office.
It worked! The person following Charles was not adept in town's roads and lost his direction. Charles was free to head to the hospital to see Ashleigh without the threat of being followed by Catherine's henchman.
As soon as pulled into a parking space, Charles made one last look to make sure he wasn't being followed, and satisfied that no one was. . . he made his way into the hospital to see Ashleigh.
He was relieved to find out by the nurse on duty that Ashleigh had made a full recovery and woke up earlier this morning.
Charles was given clearance to see Ashleigh and the two were happy to see each other.
“Charles.” Ashleigh said as he gave her a kiss.
“I'm so glad you're awake.” Charles told her. “Because we need to discuss Catherine.”
“Yeah. Was she behind the hit on my life?” Ashleigh asked him.
“There isn't concrete proof, but I suspect she was.” Charles informed her. “And there's more.”
“More? Like what?”
“When I asked my brother Grant to proceed with divorce proceedings, his office was blown up, killing him, his paralegal, and two other staff workers.”
“Catherine isn't going to make this easy, is she?”
“I'm afraid not.”
“We need a plan to get rid of her.”
knowing what they had to do, Charles left Ashleigh at the hospital and went back home to his wife.
