Night.
Linda looked at the lace and the package Laurence sent to her, containing Lizzo's real mask. He said it fell, and the only fingerprint on it was Lizzo's, which was very suspicious.
Laurence also sent her some photos, videos of her, and footage of her. Her smirk deepened the moment she saw Rodah, always tagging along with her. She wanted to move closer to her.
"Interesting," she murmured and tapped on the laptop screen again, opening the new email Laurence just sent, which she shouldn't speak with, with whom Lizzo was fighting.
Lizzo didn't talk much, always cold and distant. No wonder Laurence said they had something in common. But experience made Linda quiet. She used to be free with everyone.
"Do you think your mental health can handle it?" Laurence's words came to her mind again. She took a deep breath, closed her laptop, then picked everything she needed and put them inside a bag.
Reaching downstairs, she met the maid setting the table. "Ahh… Madam." She looked surprised, wondering why she was leaving again.
"Ohh…" Linda looked at the food and sighed. "Keep it, I will come and eat it tomorrow." She smiled and left. The maid looked at her back and sighed. Then she brought out her phone and dialled Adam's number.
…...
Coming out of the compound, Linda boarded a taxi and went to the address given to her by Laurence, very close to Lizzo's house. She met Megan in the room they rented and sighed. "You shouldn't have come."
"Why? You are about to risk your life for revenge! The funniest part is, you are at the edge of having split personalities. What if the cold one hungry for revenge falls in love with Lizzo's personality? How are you going to solve that?" Megan asked worriedly as she helped her dress.
Linda didn't reply as she focused on her new look. Megan is good at hair and makeup too. She helped her transform into Lizzo by following the pictures sent to her. The woman was so delicate and beautiful, despite her under mask.
Linda had done her own investigation on the bar and found out Lizzo was one of those mafia you can't provoke. She has a lot of connections and is very powerful. No wonder she was kidnapped. She understood what Laurence was trying to do. Once those who kidnapped her see her, they will be confused and scared. They will come to her to know what's going on. With that, Laurence and whoever he's working for will be able to capture them and get Lizzo out.
While she focused on destroying her enemy, Linda wore the mask and looked at herself in awe. There was no difference between the woman in the picture and her. She admitted she really looked like the woman.
"You are so beautiful, Linda," Megan praised. Her smile faded the moment Linda started sighing in pain.
"What… what happened?" Megan asked nervously.
"Headache," she hissed. "It keeps increasing as I look at the mirror."
Megan froze. "Ahh… Linda!" she called out in fear. "I think you need to remove that black cloth now!"
Linda sighed and shook her head. "Don't worry, I will be fine…"
"No!! What if what the doctor said is happening?"
"Don't worry, I'm now okay," she gritted her teeth, making Megan panic more.
"Ahhh, you—"
"I said I'm fine!" Linda suddenly yelled at her, startling her. She wanted to step back in fear but stood still. Linda never yelled at her. "I've promised myself not to run away from you, no matter what," she murmured under her breath.
Linda glared at her. "Get your ass out of here. Don't call or text me till I finish my first mission."
"Damn!" Megan scratched her head. "Who are you? Where do you keep my Linda?" Seeing the anger in her eyes, she nodded. "Okay, fine! But I want to know something. Do you still remember your previous memories?"
Linda picked up her phone and put it inside her small black fashion bag. "Very well. But I suddenly find you annoying." Then she left.
Megan clenched her fists. "That jerk… made you like this." She closed her eyes tight. Linda was fine with Laurence. It was Ezekiel who made her more annoyed. Then whatever Linda in Lizzo's form did to Ezekiel served him right.
Megan brought out her phone and dialled Laurence's number. After some seconds, he picked up. "Hello? Is she on her way? Lizzo's real driver is waiting."
Megan sighed. "I don't know if I should break your head for introducing Lizzo's character into her life or thank you…"
"I don't understand you. I've told you everything. She wants her revenge and I want to know about Lizzo. I've informed all the high-ranking people who knew her about Linda, so she's safe…"
"That's not what I mean. About her mental health, I told you."
"Ohhh yeah, she said she's fine with it…"
"I don't think so. She suddenly yelled at me right before she left. I think she has switched to one of what the doctor said."
"Ahhh, really? Interesting…"
"It's not funny! You know situations like that are very dangerous?"
"Don't worry, she will be fine. It will be even more dangerous if she doesn't make herself happy by taking that revenge. The more the boss annoys her, the more she locks her emotions, thinking no one will fight for her or talk for her if she speaks."
"She won't be able to continue her modelling career. You have no idea how much she loved this job."
Laurence chuckled. "Ahh, speaking of the devil, the driver I sent to her already found her. Don't worry. Let her clear her name first, then we will know what to do. Okay, I will catch up with you later."
"Ahhh wait!!" she quickly said, confusing Laurence.
"I don't know who you are working for… thank you, Laurence." She smiled.
Laurence was surprised and speechless. "Ahh, you're welcome. I just know that Linda is one of the strongest women I know. See you later." Then he hung up.
Megan looked at the phone in a daze. "Did she really switch? But she could recognise me… just pissed…" she murmured.
She was about to leave when Adam's call came through. Megan rolled her eyes and shoved the phone inside her bag. She locked the door and came out of the apartment, only to come face to face with Adam.
"Oops! I was about to tell you I'm outside."
