Sins Of The Father

Not to expose myself, I acted excited and honored to be his party planner. For the next few days, I pretended to be making preparations when in essence, I was visiting Miller as we planned his downfall.

Time flew and the 6th of February finally came.

The relationship between Don and I only worsened so it was easier to ignore him while making my plans.

Early that day, I went to Miller’s house after which we both drove down to the FBI headquarters.

At the screening, each candidate is to nominate three medical personnel who would vouch for their hard work in the industry and also attack opponents of their nominator just like prosecutors and lawyers do in the court.

Since the screening was to be done behind closed doors without the media and mass, we decided to work with one of the Ministerial candidates who agreed to make our witness one of his nominees.

Our plan was to sneak our witness into the screening room and have him expose some of Hudson’s atrocities then by the end of the screening, the FBI would be waiting outside the room to escort him to their office while we had the rest of his atrocities aired to the media.

As planned, the witness was sent with three FBI agents who were also working undercover at that time and while we awaited the uproar at the meeting, I decided to prepare my divorce file.

Since his father’s sins and my true identity will be unveiled today, I believe I owe him no explanation because if he were in my shoes, he would understand what I had to go through because of his family.

Once I was done, I contacted a delivery company who would help me deliver the letter to him at the appropriate time.

I believed my eight years of the wait were finally coming to an end until Miller returned to the headquarters with a sullen face.

While I was busy preparing to terminate my marriage, I didn’t notice that the whole office was in chaos until Miller came to me.

At first, I thought it was because the most promising Minister of Health had been arrested but soon enough I realized it was far from that.

“The witness was killed on the way to the Screening.” Miller gave me the sad news.

In nutshell, the Screening was successful and the new Minister of Health was Dr. Hudson McMahone.

Aside from the autopsy report on Diego’s death, the witness who was a scrub nurse in Hudson’s surgical team back then was the only evidence I had of my brother’s murder.

For the past seven years, I couldn’t gather enough evidence to prove my parent's murder. All I could get were the reports of the illegal experiments he did on Mom.

Back then, the FBI suited my aching heart with the fact that he would still get prosecuted for other crimes such as Medical and even political malpractice.

When we found that witness, I was happy that I finally got to prosecute him for the death of my brother but now, that hope too is gone.

Even though he might still be prosecuted, it won’t be for the crime he committed toward my family and those thoughts saddened my heart until Miller gave me a sip of good news.

“Fortunately, the witness made a video recording a few days ago just in case something like this happens.”

I felt lighthearted upon hearing this news and immediately a perfect idea came to mind.

I asked Miller to assemble the team before I brought forward my idea.

“The new Minister asked me to organize a party for him at his mansion today. There will be a lot of prominent people there as well as the media so that would be a perfect place to have him in handcuffs.”

Everyone liked the idea so we decided to go with it.

Since I hadn’t made any prior preparation, I had to do everything in a hurry and Miller and the others were there to help make the hasty preparation.

I was in charge of everything including the guest list so I decided to make extra invites which included Miller and a few others who would make the arrest.

While I was still making preparations, I remembered I had sent out a divorce to Don. I had to stop him from receiving that file until the whole plan was a success but when I called the delivery company, I was told it had already been delivered so I had to rush to his office as fast as I could to stop him from opening the file.

I reached the office and saw the file untouched on his desk. I quickly took it and hid it in my purse before he stepped out of the restroom.

He was surprised to see me since I’d been avoiding him for the past six days.

When he asked why I had come, I handed out an invite to him and loosely said, “Don’t be late.” before striding out of the office, leaving him in awe.

Later that night, I decided to be a little extravagant with my dressing so I wore a custom-made champagne off-shoulder mermaid dress. I had my hair done in a long ponytail.

Don and I stayed in his room in his father’s that night and his jaw went slack when he saw me in that dress.

He wasn’t looking bad himself as he wore an eye-catching gray tuxedo.

Before he could throw a compliment at me, I quickly stepped out of the house into the beautiful and spacious garden.

Almost everyone on the guest list was already present when I arrived except for Miller but I was confident he would join us in no time.

As the host and ‘daughter-in-law’ to the new minister, I addressed the party after which he also climbed the stage to give his ‘humble’ speech, not forgetting to shower his son with praises as he always does.

Anyone who knew Dr. Hudson would know how much he loved his son. The two men were closer than he’d ever been with his mother.

An hour into the party Miller finally arrived, signaling me to make a move.

I inserted a flash drive into the projector before climbing up the stage to make my allegations.

“A Very long time ago Dr. Hudson McMahone was my mentor. So, mentor, I dedicate this video to you. Please watch!” I announced, pulling the attention of everyone present to the video being displayed on the projector.
