My second golden ticket gifter for the month of August goes to Jackie_Begley! 🎉🎉

Hey Jackie!

Oh my gosh!

I’m dumbstruck by your love and support babe. Thanks for the golden tickets huneyyy! 🤗

Maybelline took a mouthful of the drug the housekeeper had given her and swallowed it without a second thought. Almost instantly, her stomach burned like it was on fire. Her body trembled as an uncontrollable wave of gas escaped her. Again and again.

Her legs felt heavy, her arms weak, her whole body sinking as though her strength was being drained away.

Fear gripped her chest. She wanted to scream, to cry out for help, but her voice wouldn’t come. Her lips parted, yet no sound left them.

What was happening to her?

Could the food have been poisoned? No, that was impossible. Tonight, only the Madman’s food was supposed to be poisoned. Hughes had assured her of that. Then why was she the one suffering like this?

For hours, she had waited, waited to hear a scream, a cry, some noise that confirmed the Madman’s death. But there was nothing. No sound. No news. Nothing at all.

Instead, she was the one in agony.

Penny should be crying. She should be in pain. She should have turned into a widow by now.

"What’s happening to us?" David groaned from the floor, his voice trembling. His stomach was so swollen it looked as if it might explode at any moment.

Maybe he should never have followed his wife into this madness. Maybe revenge wasn’t worth this. Ever since he stepped foot in this house, he had felt strange, as though unseen hands were tugging at his life.

"I don’t know..." May whispered, her breath shallow. "But I feel like I’m dying."

"Me too," David panted. Another foul sound burst from him, leaving him weaker than before. It felt like each fart sucked the life out of him, pulling away what little energy he had left.

Had the housekeeper poisoned them as well?

With trembling arms, May tried to push herself up. She thought of Ariana, of calling for her, of at least trying to get help. But her body betrayed her, too heavy, too weak.

Then, suddenly, her phone rang. The sharp sound cut through the suffocating silence.

With shaking hands, she reached for it and glanced at the caller ID.

Abby.

May’s frown softened into a small smile. Abby wouldn’t be calling without a reason. Maybe... maybe this was it. Maybe this was the news she had been waiting for.

Maybe the Madman was finally dead.

But why didn’t she get the new first hand? Did the housekeeper forget to tell her about it because of the Chaos going on?

Abby wanted to be there. She wanted to be present so that she could accuse Hughes of killing the madman. If she does, then she wouldn’t have to worry about anyone exposing her evil deeds.

She answered the call immediately. "I know already Abby, what I don’t understand is why I haven’t been given a feedback yet." May said calmly.

"He’s badly injured May. Those people, the... They almost killed him." Abby cried from the other end.

She couldn’t stand seeing her only son and child this hurt because of her. She wanted to know how things were going in the Adkin’s mansion. At the return of Maybelline, the madman should be dead by now.

It’s not like it was hard to kill him. He is mad and useless.

"Why didn’t they finish him off? We don’t have time to be making silly mistakes. I asked her to finish him off." May said. No wonder the stupid housekeeper couldn’t give her a feedback, because the madman survived.

That’s the last thing they wanted. Right now, Osvaldo’s soul was tied to Chris. It is either one person go down for the other and the only person that’s going to go down is the madman.

"Asked who?" Abby asked sounding confused.

"The housekeeper of course." May said.

"You asked what housekeeper to kill Chris? What is going on May?" Abby asked.

"Wait! Did you mean Chris all this time?"

"Yes. What we’re you talking about?" Abby asked her friend.

"About the madman but it doesn’t matter. What happened to Chris?" May asked brushing off her question. She wanted to know why Abby sounded so worried.

"He was attacked May. Chris was badly beaten. Things are getting really dangerous now. We have just a week before we all get killed, have you killed the madman yet?"
