In the next few days, there is silence. The Marshalls kept to themselves and so did Sebastian and Vivian. It was a devastating event and so they didn't want to intrude. They left the family to support each other. Sebastian and Vivian focused on their work, they had meetings to attend and editing to do.
On the other hand, Nicole is a restless soul, she was going to work when Sebastian and Vivian weren't home.
She meets Raymond and they both go to a hotel room. Nicole has some news for Raymond, but is it good or bad?
'What's wrong, Sarah, you know I cannot do this anymore. My wife is dead, for fuck sake,' Raymond yells at her and slams the room door shut.
She cowers back and sits on the bed, 'I need to tell you something.'
'Well, speak woman,' he ushers.
'My name is Nicole, not Sarah,' she sheepishly murmurs.
'Louder, I cannot hear,' he grabs her arm as he sits down beside her.
'My name is Nicole, I lied to you,' she rather loudly proclaims.
His eyes widen with shock, 'What?'
'I am sorry, babe. Look, let me explain,' she quickly cups his cheeks.
He grabs her hands and shoves her away, 'What the hell are you doing? Who the fuck are you and why did you lie?' he yells, 'Answer my questions or I will kill you.'
Nicole's eyes widen, 'My name is Nicole Mercer and I had to lie to you, I am sorry. But look, I am telling you the truth. I love you so much, Raymond and I am sorry for everything,' she whispers.
'What is your name?' he asks.
'Nicole Mercer,' she recites. That name sounds familiar to him, it is a name that Richard mentioned. He quickly takes his phone out and reads some information that Richard had sent him.
His eyes widen with disbelief and rage, 'Nicole Mercer, widow and fostered Vivian Reed,' he grabbed Nicole by the hair and drags her onto the floor, 'You bitch, you work for Vivian.'
Nicole winces in pain and yelps out, 'You're hurting me, Raymond, please,' she manages to choke out.
He lets go of her and she plummets to her knees.
He then steps back and scoffs hysterically as the woman weeps on the floor, 'Damn it, why didn't I think, of course, you work for her. She made you sleep with me. Then broadcasted it, so Julia would leave me, fuck, that bitch played a good game.'
'Is it true?' he bends down next to Nicole and she nods.
Then he slaps her across her face, 'I should kill you right now, it would teach her a good lesson,' he pulls a gun out from his jacket and points it at her.
'Please don't, Raymond, listen to me,' she crawls to his feet and begs him.
'Give me one good reason why I should spare you,' he spits out in repulsion.
'I am pregnant,' she reveals looking at him.
'What?' his fingers lose the grip on the gun.
'I am pregnant with your baby,' she touches her stomach.
'Liar, you bloody whore. You would do anything to save your life,' he says and bends down to pick her up and makes her sit on the bed.
'I am not lying; I came here to tell you that. I went to the doctors yesterday. She said I was two weeks pregnant,' she cries out.
