Eric didn't know when the tears started falling from his eyes. He has endured the pain for the past 15years, not telling anyone about it, not opening up about it. Holding it in him for the longest, was what made him cold, his main aim was to carry out his revenge on them.

Avery consoles him by patting his back and his hair. She never thought that Eric was going through all of these. He was always calm and demure, not talking when not spoken to. But inside of him, he was dying of guilt and pain. Which reminded her of what Ms Maryanne said. The times she has seen Eric sad was when his mother died, who knew his mother died protecting him.

That even the cops couldn't help him. He had to live his life in regrets. She felt sorry for him.

Eric sniffed and released the hug looking at her.

"I think you know everything now," He said and she chuckled as his hands moved around her waist pulling her towards him, her heart speeding up at the small gesture.

"Why didn't you tell me you were a secret

    Avery lazily sat on the bed, she just came out from the bathroom where she went to throw up and for the third time tonight. “Baby, are you okay?” Eric asked, walking into the room.She quickly sat up, wiping her mouth clean. “Yeah I'm fine.” She said standing up from the bed.Eric towards her and opened his arms for her to walk into.“You left the dinner table in a hurry. Hope you are ok?” He asked her to hug her.“I'm fine babe” she said, going to the bed and sitting. Eric walked towards her and sat beside her.“Is there something you want to tell me!” He asked her, holding her arms.She looked at him then stood up to her bag. She brought out a file and went back to sit with him. She gave him the file. He opened the file and read through.“Babe what's this?” He asked. “Amy brought this to me when I was in the office. According to her, it turns out that Red Talcum has already been in existence way before Red Hearts. Are you aware of it?” She asked. Eric shook his head.“I wasn't awa

    “Hey bestie, you sent for me” Amy voice woke Avery from her deep sleep. She sighs and turns around to see Amy standing there looking at her in shock. “Don't tell me you were sleeping” she smiled and sat on the chair opposite her. Avery breathed out and gave her a tired smile. “Okay, spill. What's the secret?” She asked, looking at her. Avery shook her head and stood up from the chair. She walked tiredly to the bathroom and washed her face. She looked at herself in the mirror and sighs. She doesn't know what's wrong with her since yesterday. She has become so weak to the extent of sleeping in the office. She cleaned her face and went back to meet Amy who was patiently waiting for her.“Hey, are you good?” She asked when saw her coming out. Avery nodded her head and went to her chair.“So you called me over,” she said, looking at her very well. “Are you sure you are ok? You don't look fine to me” She said again. “I'm fine Amy,” Avery said, bringing out some files from her drawer. “I

    Avery turned around on the bed and she opened her eyes and looked around. She looked to her side and found out that Eric was no longer in bed with her. She stood up and went to the bathroom, she took her bath and went to the closet to change into something. She went to the mirror, packed her hair in a messy bun, carried her phone and left the room.She headed downstairs where she was hearing voices. She got down and she saw Eric who was sitting at his bar and Eugene was talking to Luck that wasn't giving him attention. Eric looked up and saw her coming down.“You're awake. How was your sleep?” He asked her getting up to go meet her. Avery nodded and allowed him to drag her to the couch.“When did you get here?” She asked Eugene.“Not long ma'am” he replied.“Are you ready?” He asked her looking her up and down. She's wearing a pair of trousers and a big top. She nodded and got up, but Eric held her.“You need to eat, Maryanne made brunch for you” he said looking at her. She looked at

    Eric looked at Luck who was checking on his phone. He brought out something and then gave the phone to Eric who watched the video emotionlessly. So all these times Anabelle has been with the Mayor. Was it Anabelle who told the Mayor who he was? He isn't smart enough to know or figure out something like that. That's why he has people following him who help him out, not that they are good too. He looked at the video then gave back his phone to Luck. Luck collected it and looked up at him.“What do we do?” he asked, looking at him. “Should I send the boys?” Luck asked again. Eric put his hand up signalling him to stop. “Do you think he knows that there was a camera in Anabelle's house?” He asked, looking at him.“I don't think so, even when I went there when I was looking for her, I didn't get to see the camera there. So I don't think they knew. But my question is how did she know?” Luck asked, referring to Avery. He has gone there only once, his boys have gone there they went through

    “Ma'am, I think you should slow down,” Eugene said, putting on his seat belt quickly. Avery didn't listen to him. Who is he to tell her to slow down? Instead of slowing down, she stepped on the clutch and drove faster than they were driving. Eugene immediately made a sign of the cross because he doesn't want to die any moment now, he hasn't yet told the world that he's gay, he hasn't found his love yet. “Ma'am please. Just calm down, the police will stop us now” Eugene complained trying to make her stop.Just then Avery stepped on the break without warning that made Eugene hit the dashboard with a heavy thud.“Ouch” he cried out in pain, he looked at himself in the mirror and found just a little bump. He turned to look at Avery who was fuming looking ahead of her, his eyes went to what she's looking at that was when he noticed that they were already in front of Ericmac Enterprise. And standing in front of the car was Eric talking to Luck. Luck smiled and jotted something down. That s

    “Wake up!” Avery felt a hand tap her, she brushed it away and continued her sleep.“Baby, wake up” Eric said, still tapping her, but Avery brushed his hands away.“Aren't you going to work today?” He whispered in her ear and she jerked up immediately. She's going to be late for her meeting today. She turned around and saw Eric sitting beside her, she bowed her head in sadness not daring to look at him. She still feels sad about what she did the other day.“I'm sorry about yesterday. I should have asked you first before questioning Luck.” She apologized bitterly, raising her head to look at him. Eric took her hands in his.“It's okay darling, I'm no longer pissed at you, but can you not do it again?” He asked her, she nodded with a smile.“Is that why you are sleeping here? Why didn't you come to the room?” He asked her.“I thought you were angry at me. You left.” She said and bowed her head. Eric sighs and nudged her to look at him.“No matter how angry I am, no matter how much I yell
