FLAMES OF REVENGE

Longing

As everyone murmured, Evans became frustrated as with his sharp hearing and heard every little whisper from the crowd. Walking towards Nora who also heard everything, he urged her to apologize to at least save some face.

But as proud as she is, she refuses and also urges Evans to support her and shut the crowd threatening to report to Luna on her return.

Evans who hates to be threatened glared at Nora coldly before walking towards the 8 years old Chelsea and apologizing to her shocking the crowd including Nora, as she tries to protest but was stopped by Evans's cold gaze.

Taking out his 2.5 million dollars gold watch he handed it to her shutting everyone up as he rendered Chelsea speechless unable to return the watch as it seems expensive even for her.

As expected Nora began throwing a tantrum again questioning Evans why he will give such a treasure to a mere orphan.

Evans who have had enough of her constant tempers scolded her in front of everyone saying

"You called her a mere orphan but she composes herself more than someone with parents ain't you ashamed to be throwing tantrums in a place like this?"

Questioning Nora he turned towards Chelsea taking her hands in his as he felt a spark at their touch and gasped her hand tightly as if telling her not to return the watch.

But she made it clear to him she never intended on returning it to him in the first place shocking him once again.

The event unfolded happily as everyone reconcile except for Nancy who was rushed to the hospital due to her injured face.

Realizing how one word from Chelsea changed to the outcome of the events many children made up their minds either to befriend or avoid her as the party almost comes to an end but Chelsea has one more truth to unfold before the end of the party.

Sneaking to the projector Chelsea took out a USB Drive plugging it into the projector as the whole room turns dark.

Suddenly moaning sounds were heard as the parents cover their children's eyes and ears when Wendy's face appears on the screen.

Gasps were heard as the man's face was also revealed on the screen which shocks many as the Man was nonother than Mr. James the head investor of the Orphanage who was married and had five children with his wife who suddenly fell ill for some unknown reason.

But makes an appearance to save her husband's face but was confronted by such a scene as she collapses before her children making them worry.

Lora sits at her desk, typing away on her computer, when Chelsea enters the office, holding a USB drive.

(excitedly)

Lora, I think I may have found something that could help shed some light on Wendy's sudden departure!

"Really? What is it, Chelsea?" Lora asked looking up intrigued

Chelsea plugs the USB drive into Lora's computer and opens a video file. The footage begins to play, showing Wendy, one of the caretakers, sleeping with a married man.

"Oh my goodness! Is that... Wendy?" Lora looked astonished

"Yes, it is. I couldn't believe it when I stumbled upon this. I think this might have something to do with Wendy leaving unexpectedly. You and Wendy were close friends, right?

"Yes, we were. But how did you even find this?" Lora asked still in shock.

"I noticed a change in Wendy's behavior around the time she left. She seemed upset and distant. So, I decided to dig deeper and understand what might have caused it. That's when I found this video, and it made me wonder if these actions had something to do with it" Chelsea said with concern in her voice as she also liked Wendy a lot.

"Thank you, Chelsea. This could explain a lot. We need to approach this situation delicately. Wendy must be going through a lot, and I don't want to cause her any more pain we have to help her" Lora said gratefully.

"Lora, we need to talk about Wendy. I've done some more digging, and I think there's more to the story than what we initially thought" Chelsea said in worry

Back to the present

***********************

Watching the crowd's shocked expression, Lora took the initiative to clear her co-worker's name

I came across some evidence that suggests Wendy may not be involved in the situation we saw on the video Lora said boldly wowing the crowd.

Tired of the unfolding Event Nora interfered "What's with the show how are we sure you didn't make them up"

Evans who was enjoying the show quickly defended Lora asking her to continue to Nora's dismay as she was sure she was his mate.

Chelsea who observed Nora since the car incident noticed how see always attacked Lora for no reason

'Is the something I'm missing here?'

She asked herself quietly observing Evans as she watched grey hair which was styled in an elegant way.

Immediately Evans turned his attention to Chelsea who was lost in his charms that she forget to look away and was caught red-handed in her act.

After realizing her situation Chelsea showed a fake smile which for some reason receive a scorn look for Evans as he walked away

'Why is she giving me such a fake smile for no reason?' he asked himself unsure of what to do to get her attention in such an event.

Chelsea in got tired of Nora's blowups stepped out of the Hall hoping to get some fresh air as both Nora and Lora we're to busy arguing to notice the mastermind fleeing from the scene.

Evans on the other hand couldn't focus on the event not didn't care less on who got hurt and who didn't as long as it wasn't Chelsea.

As he watched her leave the hall all the way to her room following her quietly as he just wanted to be around her all the long.
