"What exactly do you want Patricia?" Mary asked, she felt she needed to do so because at this point she was becoming confused.

"What I want? I want that bitch as far away from my fi-" she stopped herself just in time. If she revealed she had developed feelings for Jason in front of George it would reveal an Achilles heel. He could not find out, neither could her grandfather. "It doesn't matter, I killed her the first time to erase her from the world but that has given her too much confidence. I want to make her so terrified that it pushes her to insanity. For whatever reason she got lucky, but she must suffer as I intended even more so."

​​

George shared a suspicious look with her assistant Mary. "All I need now is her location. I need the police to arrest her for the press."

George smiled. "Now is when you begin to revere me dear neice. What do you have to offer for Jason's location?"

"You have it? How? He was very thorough." She frowned.

George tilted his head and smiled smugly. "You're talking about me you know, do you think I can be one upped by Jason Kang?"

"Fine what do you want?" She asked.

"The actress, I want Jessie Marin." He stated firmly.

Patricia eyes narrowed at him and she regarded him cautiously. "Don't tell me you've developed a fancy for her."

He smiled confidently. "How could I not? Besides what better man to break her than yours truly?"

"That wasn't my plan." She shook her head. "I want her to suffer public scrutiny, if she's with you she'll never get to feel the hate I want the world to give her."

"Then you don't want the location then." He frowned. "Besides do you think it would be so easy to convince the public without proof? Even if you had Jessie, she's not a normal person she has influence and support. What stops people from blaming the persecution instead? I'll tell you what is going to happen, the police will arrest Jessie from Jason's house and you'll put all the blame on the detective in charge of her case. Dig up dirt on him, or frame him anyway there must be a connection between and the actress."

"But he's innocent." Mary mumbled under her breath.

"What was that?" George asked.

"Nothing." She said.

"In exchange for Jessie?"

"Exactly, I must have that actress. Make the right choice neice." With that he left the room.

Patricia bit her lip and sighed. "Get someone to tail that detective and find something on him." She ordered Mary. Who knew she would hit the jackpot.

***************************************************.

Patrice placed an envelope on the sit between her and the Chief. He looked at her first then at the envelope, picking it up he pulled out pictures.

It was Jamie Anderson with two other women.

"The other woman, in the mask that is Jessie Marin."

The chief looked at her with slight shock and she nodded. "I know, convenient right? When I asked people to tail him I didn't expect to get anything this big." She smiled. "I even get to take down that doctor that had the guts to threaten me in the hospital. Oh! Everything is coming up Patricia!" She laughed.

The chief didn't want to interrupt her villainous laughter but he had to say it. "A picture wouldn't be enough, besides she was in a mask."

Patricia's maniac laughing halted and she sent him an icy glare. "You know what, don't speak again. Just obey my instructions Ugh, your so boring Cheol Jong. Do I really have to give you all the answers?"

"Of course not." He said quickly, he knew how quickly he could be disposed of if he didn't prove useful enough. "I will take care of it." He nodded.

"Good, now get out." Patricia stated and he bowed opening the door and leaving the car.

Patricia picked up her phone, while the police worked one angle she had to work the other. "Lenora, hey are you free?"

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

"You don't seem surprised, do you perhaps know Jessie Marin was alive?" Patricia asked.

"What kind of reporter would I be to have believed that she was actually dead? There way too many sightings and coincidences." Lenora shrugged, sipping her ice coffee.

"Hmm, you're actually better than I imagined." Patricia smiled.

"What did you think I was just some spoilt princess in a rebellious phase?" Lenora asked rhetorically. Patricia nodded, she understood.

"Come to think about it, the first place Jessie Marin was sighted was a spa. But the missus said she couldn't be sure, you were at a spa almost at the same time." Lenora leaned on the table between them. "Was Jessie the reason you ended up in a hospital?"

Patricia gaze darkened at Lenora amused expression but either Leonra didn't notice or chose to ignore she continued.

"That means she really was there at the hospital, when that video leaked." She rubbed her chin. "Why would a person framed for murder and assumed dead come find you? Attack you even..." when it clicked her gaze shot up and she backed up. "It was you, all along. I should have known."

Patricia crossed her legs and folded her arms leaning back in her sit she sent Lenora a decisive look. "You're correct, it was me. Are you going to be a saint about it?" She asked whole giving her a pointed stare.

"Why should I? It doesn't affect me in any way" she shrugged. "But I am wary, your actions are pretty excessive."

"Well I am Patricia Lee after all." She said.

Lenora leaned back in her chair as well. "If you're telling me this you must be planning something. What do you want to do?"

Patricia smiled. "I really like Lenora Han." She said, this woman was surprising. She didn't even ask why she did that to Jessie instead she was going straight to the point.

"What can I say, I tend to have that effect." She said proudly.

"No you don't."

"No I don't, either way tell me."

"I'm planning on reveling the truth, that Jessie isn't really dead. And I'm going to need a reporter I can trust."

Preview 170: Police.

"Jason! You wouldn't believe what is going on right now!" Paul exclaimed.

"Actually I can, I'm watching the news right now." He stated bluntly.

Paul frowned "so? What are you going to do about Katherine and Jessie? We can't let the police get to them first."

Jason shut his eyes tightly and sighed. "Do you think I don't already know that?" He said through gritted teeth.

"Look I have to go now, I'll call as soon as I can."

"Wait! Let me help, you already have so much on your plate as it is, send me the number of the bodyguard you sent with them. I'll bring them back safely." He assured Jason.

Jason paused, could he really trust Jessie with Paul? Paul sensing his hesistance spoke again. "Jason, Jessie will be fine, I promise. You'll have her by evening."

"Don't let anything happen to her Paul." He said sternly but his tone gave away his anxiety.

"Nothing will." He assured him one last time before ending the call.
