Chapter 302: ANGER
"You witch!" Monica commented as she gasped with her hands placed on her mouth. "What are you doing here?" She demanded.
Felicia’s eyes settled on Monica for a brief second and even though she was offended by the insult that was immediately thrown at her, she decided to suppress her anger as her eyes shifted to stare at Erika who was already glaring at her.
"Aren’t you surprised to see me, my dearest arch-enemy?" She asked with the sweetest voice that could make anybody’s skin crawl. When Erika didn’t reply to her immediately, she hissed. "Tsk tsk tsk, and here I was thinking of how tightly we were going to hug each other when we saw each other. It seems like you didn’t miss me as much as I thought you would."
"Didn’t you hear her question?" asked Erika, her fist clenched tightly at the sight of Felicia, the woman who always wanted to bring her trouble. "What are you doing here?" She repeated Monica’s question.
Felicia dramatically looked around as if there was someone else that Erika was looking at so intensely as if she wanted to rip their heads off.
"Who? Me?" She asked, feigning Ignorance. "Like I said, I only wanted to visit you and give you a little surprise gift," she added. Reaching for her face mask that was still placed on her face to conceal her identity, Felicia untied the knot from her back and took it off. "How do I look?" She asked them with the whitest smile that could blind an already blind man’s eyesight.
Erika stared at Felicia’s face, finding it completely unbelievable that the woman who looked back at her had her face. Unfortunately, the surgery wasn’t successful from every angle.
"You are really that desperate aren’t you?" Monica questioned her. "I thought you hated Erika so much but you actually copied her face and now you are here? What for? To flaunt your shamelessness?" Monica spat out.
"Tell your friend to control her mouth, else I will be the one to do it for her," Felicia threatened, her fierce look so hot that it could bore a hole in a wall but Monica stood, unaffected by it.
"What are you going to do?" Monica challenged. "Do you want us to fight? If you think I will take it easy just because you have my friend’s face all over your ugly one, then you are mistaken."
Erika gave Monica a look, hoping she wouldn’t say anything else. Erika had seen Adrian with a gun and without doubt, she was aware that Adrain and Felicia had hidden together, so if he sent her here, he must have armed her so that she could protect herself and she didn’t want to put her friend’s life in danger.
Taking a step forward, Erika shielded Monica’s figure with hers.
"Where’s Adrain? Where’s your husband? Didn’t you come here with him? Doesn’t he miss me?" Erika mocked, intending to rub salt on Felicia’s wounds. "You probably think that after having my face, he won’t stop looking for me," she added with a smirk.
The last thing she wanted was for Adrian to continue to lust after her but she was loving Felicia’s face at the moment.
Her scowl only increased, creating two lines on her forehead. "You bitch!" Felicia cursed. "Just you wait? You are going to pay for everything that you’ve done to me."
"Like what? As far as I remember, I haven’t done anything wrong to you, you are the one who keeps messing with me. And what now? Are you still going to try to go through with your plan?" She questioned Felicia. When she saw that Felicia had turned speechless, Erika hissed at her just like Felicia had done earlier. "Tsk tsk tsk, I wonder what your son is going to think of you when he finds out how shameless and desperate his mother has become."
At the mention of her son, Felicia’s eyes flared. "Give me back my son!" She demanded with a clenched fist, wanting to growl but worried that nearby passers would hear them and she would get in trouble because of it.
"Your son? I’m not with your son Felicia. I’m sure you already know that he’s in the orphanage. You can just adopt him and take him with you."
Felicia dug her nails deep into her skin at how Erika was challenging her. She couldn’t adopt Jake because of the security that surrounded him. The last time that Adrian had sent one of his men to pretend to be a widower who wanted to have a child at home so the spirit of his wife wouldn’t continue to hunt him since ’she’ died while they were childless, he didn’t even pass the application process, talk more of seeing the baby.
"Will you just shut up!" She demanded. "You’d better give me back my son Erika else you will regret it. I will make you regret it," she promised.
Having had enough of staying quiet for too long already, Monica moved away from Erika’s back and challenged,
"Bring out whatever you and the psychotic husband of yours have up in your sleeves, Erika and Ethan will conquer the both of you. And now that you mentioned Jake, I think I will adopt him as my son. It will be really good if he joins the family. Hopefully, after spending time with us, he won’t grow to have your bad blood."
"Don’t you dare!" Felicia forgot that she shouldn’t be loud and growled at Monica but Monica was completely caused by it.
"Just you try to cause trouble for any of us and you will never be able to see your son again. Even if you plan to kidnap him from the orphanage, it’s not going to work. Now that I think of it, how did you get into this party, and why exactly? To cause trouble again?" Monica questioned her, her eyes holding just as much anger as Felicia’s which left the latter at a disadvantage.
