Sold? Oh Please. Chapter 58

"I'm so sorry sir but that's confidential information. I can't give it to you." Steve shook his head vehemently.
George narrowed his eyes at the man and smirked, Patricia was staring daggers at him.
"Do you know who I am?" She asked him.
"How could I not, I'm a huge fan." He smiled.
Her demeanour softened at the revelation. "Oh yeah? If that's so can't you do me this one favour?" She asked sheepishly.
Steve sighed and looked at her "I'm sorry I can't."
Patricia frowned "Why not? Don't you like me?"
"Of course I do. But rules are rules, I can't just let anyone see confidential footage." He said.
"Confidential footage? But that footage is about me, it is my room after all." She pouted.
"I understand that, and I understand you request but this things are just not up to me" He sighed.
"Do you think they'll be up to you now?" Goerge asked. Steve gave him a questioning look and Patricia also look to him in surprise. But the surprise soon turned to shock and dread for Patricia and Steve respectively, as they stared at the gun Goerge was holding at him.
Steve instinctively rose his arms up in surrender.
"Goerge!" Patricia warned.
Ignoring her, and still wearing that sick smirk on his face he gestured for Steve to get moving.
"I would suggest you put your hands down if you don't want to end up dead." He dropped his hands to his sides and struggled not to have a panic attack. He was literally being held at gunpoint in right in his work place. And he was sure that Goerge had also noticed that the camera room didn't have a camera in it, irony of things.

"Show me the footage from this afternoon, when did you see the actress?" He asked Patricia.
"Around noon, maybe one." She replied.
"Play it from around there." He ordered.
"Why is the screen blank? Why is nothing happening?! I wasn't sleeping in the afternoon!" Patricia screamed as she stared at the screen.
The footage showed her sleeping, all through from one till Goerge came into her room.
Patricia looked up at him with tears in her eyes. "I promise I saw Jessie Marin, I swear." She cried.
Goerge sighed rubbing his temples. "Why the hell would you say her name? Now I'll have to kill him." He stated bluntly.
Steve stiffened and Goerge didn't miss his reaction, he didn't react when Patricia said the actress' name. And if he's reacting to this only means he already knows that she was here.
Deciding to play along, he wanted to make sure he was certain. "Play the footage from the began of the day."
Steve struggled to grab the mouse, he tried to send a text or call the cops secretly with his phone as he played the footage. If he didn't act fast he might actually just die, but they wouldn't really kill him right? They would lose a lot if they were found right? They are the most powerful family in the country, killing someone wouldn't be good for their reputation right? He asked himself as he struggled to do their bidding.
The video started to play and Patricia ordered him to speed up. When it reached the part that she threw the ceramic plate at the nurse she told him to stop.
Katherine walked in at that point.
"There! There! That's the bitch that was crazy enough to threaten me. Yes! I can totally post that and bury her. I'm not mad, this will salvage my reputation, give that to me!" She ordered Steve.

"You're not going to do anything with that video." Goerge stated firmly.
She spun around and glared at him "and why not?"
"Because the video proves nothing."
"How the hell can you say it proves nothing?!" She yelled at him. "You can clearly see her face."
"But can you hear a sound? To me it looks like she's just doing her job, treating you." He said nonchalantly.
"What? You don't believe me do you?" She asked in annoyance.
"It doesn't matter if I believe you or not Patricia. It's not plausible, she can deny everything if this gets out." He said.
"Well it'll be her word aganist mine." Patricia said.
"Don't be so confident neice, your name can only get you so far. Be patient, at least now we know an accomplice of that actress. It'll be easy to figure out who's behind her." Goerge said.
Patricia frowned and folded her arms "why should I care about that. I want to bury that despicable doctor."
"This is why your in this mess. Thinking with you emotions, don't pour your energy into the battle. Fight with patience and endurance to win the war. This is going to be fun" Goerge smiled.
"Don't think I don't see you sir, touch that phone one more time and you're dead." Goerge warned.
Steve froze, he was doomed. No way he would make it out of this, he already knew too much. Was this really his end? He put his phone on the table and put his hand in his pocket discreetly.
"Put this video in this flash." George placed it on the table beside his hand and he put it in.
"Now put that video on repeat, delete the video of us coming in here and turn of all the cameras that will catch is and we walk back to room 1103 and get up." Goerge ordered, Steve stood up and did as he was told. "Don't be smart with me, I counted seven in total and you only turned five off."
"Are you really going to kill him?" Patricia asked.
"It depends, will you speak of this to anyone?" He asked
"I won't, I promise on my mother's grave I won't. Please don't kill me." Steve begged.
George rubbed his chin as if he was thinking about it, he looked at Patricia then back at Steve. "You know Jessie Marin is alive." He said.
Steve's eyes widened and he shook his head. "I don't, I don't, I swear."
Goerge smiled. "Even if you were telling the truth which I know you're not. I already told you so you do know she's alive."
Steve looked at him, pleading with his eyes, terrified for his life.
"And that is a loose end that needs tying up. Goodbye sir" He said and he pulled the trigger.
